Zombie Apocalypse: Reborn With A Farming Space

After Wei Ying finished the form, he handed it over to the soldier. He then pulled out 23 crystal cores from his backpack and said, "My team has 23 members. Here is the registration fee and payment for the extra emblems."

The soldier accepted the payment and checked the form. After a moment, he said, "Captain Wei, the emblems will be ready by the day after tomorrow. As for the identification cards, please wait here. They will be ready in an hour or two."

"Comrade, what are the identification cards for?" Wei Ying asked.

Knowing that not everyone was familiar with the base's system, the soldier explained with a smile, "Captain Wei, when you register your team, you will receive ID cards proving your membership in the base."

"These cards will contain your personal information and function like the old ATM cards before the apocalypse. When you complete missions, you can store your point rewards on your ID card and use them for purchases inside the base."

He then pulled out a thick book and said, "This is the list of supplies and items you can exchange for points."

Curious, Wei Ying flipped through the book. Besides essentials like food, water, and medicine, there were daily necessities, hygiene products, weapons, and even snacks.

Points could also be exchanged for crystal cores, which were more convenient when traveling outside the base. After all, the base's point system was only valid internally. Elsewhere, crystal cores were still the standard currency.

He flipped further and stopped at the housing page. After reading for a moment, he asked, "Comrade, can we buy a house too?"

The soldier nodded and replied, "We are currently expanding the base. For now, we have apartments, houses, and villas available for rent or purchase. In the future, we plan to build low-cost housing for those who can't afford apartments."

Hearing this, the Eagle team was surprised. They had always known Xun Che was a capable leader, but they hadn't expected this level of foresight.

With this point system, the base was gradually rebuilding a society similar to the pre-apocalypse era. With ranked missions, even ordinary people could earn points. This would reduce crime and improve quality of life.

After explaining the exchange value of crystal cores and points, the soldier handed over a booklet and said, "Comrade, this contains the base's rules and punishment. Please read it carefully to avoid violations and penalties."

Accepting the booklet, Wei Ying said, "Thank you, Comrade."

While the Eagle team waited for their ID cards, the leaders were having dinner in a small hotel near the border of Lin'an City.

As they ate dried food, they stared out the window in a daze. Even from such a distance, they could still hear the zombies' roars and the sounds of battle. Every so often, the ground would shake, followed by bright flashes of light in the distance.

Since the apocalypse began, most of them had stayed in the camp, giving orders from behind desks. They didn't go out to fight the zombies. Even when they did leave the camp, they were heavily escorted by soldiers, so they never truly understood how bad the situation outside was.

Now, with fewer soldiers accompanying them, they finally realized how dangerous the world had become. Thinking about it, they began to see how flawed their previous method of managing the camp had been.

While the leaders were deep in thought, the soldiers nearby gazed toward the zombie horde in the distance.

As active soldiers, they longed to join the battle. But with their orders to escort the leaders, they could only stand by and follow commands, feeling useless and restless.

Standing by the window, some of the soldiers began to reflect on their decision to remain in the army. Others had already made up their minds to retire and become mercenaries.

Rather than continue to follow people who only knew how to hide and did nothing to help the people, they would rather go out and help those in need however they could.

Under this heavy and conflicted atmosphere, the night deepened and the red moon rose in the sky.

A few kilometers from the hotel, Jin Xuyan glanced up at the red moon and reminded his team, "Everyone, be careful. The zombies will get stronger now."

"Understood!" The Phantom team members responded in unison.

Standing beside her boyfriend, Jiao Lizhi quietly observed the members and noticed signs of fatigue among them. Waving her hands, she absorbed the energy from her water blades back into her body.

Turning to Jin Xuyan, she said, "Brother Yan, I will go give the members some crystal cores, food, and water."

Jin Xuyan nodded and replied, "Okay."

BOOM!

With a wave of his hand, another black fireball flew toward the zombies below and exploded upon contact.

Jiao Lizhi made her way to Gu Shaoze's team and said, "Senior Gu, you and your team should take a break. The children won't last much longer if they keep fighting like this."

She took out some self-heating meals, several gallons of her pond water, and a bag of crystal cores from her space. Handing the bag to Gu Shaoze, she said, "Senior, once your team has eaten, let them get some sleep."

Gu Shaoze opened his mouth to refuse, but Rong Mo'er accepted the bag first and said, "Thank you, Sister."

Jiao Lizhi nodded and continued checking on the others. Compared to Gu Shaoze's team, the rest of the members were trained soldiers.

Even though Li Qixuan and Feng Yun weren't trained soldiers, their abilities and stamina were far better, so they weren't as exhausted.

When she checked on Feng Yun, he looked sleepy but not overly tired. He decided to take a short nap before returning to the fight.

As for Li Qixuan, he didn't appear tired at all. In fact, he looked even more energized than before. Seeing her walking over, he grinned and asked, "Little sister, are you worried about me and came to check on me?"

Jiao Lizhi was used to her vice-captain's teasing in her previous life. So now, even after hearing it again, she remained as calm as a monk.
