Chapter 824: Eating Melon Falls On Your Own Head

While that Special Ability User was speaking, the Base Commander was already standing behind him.

Evidently, the Base Commander also noticed this person’s uniqueness.

This cannot be left unchecked.

Everyone needs a reason to vent, but that reason cannot be manipulated by others.

"Hello, Base Commander!"

The Special Ability User was a young lad; seeing the Base Commander approach did not surprise him much. Instead, he waved politely at him.

However, his legs subconsciously took a step back.

Clearly, he understood how powerful the Base Commander was.

With just a flick of his fingers, he could kill him.

The Base Commander nodded lightly at him, "You can talk, but you cannot use your superpower to manipulate people, or you won’t even have the chance to choose a pretty coffin."

As he spoke, the terrifying pressure belonging to the Base Commander instantly pressed upon the young man.

The young man’s legs started shaking, almost not managing to stay upright, nearly kneeling directly on the ground.

"I will speak truthfully!" A glint of determination flashed in the young man’s fearful gaze; he glanced at the Base Commander, then took a deep breath,

A thick energy surged from him, gathering entirely at his mouth.

"Those scum are Base Commander’s son, Leng Yebai, Bai... err―"

Before the young man could finish, he was suddenly sent flying; the loudspeakers were smashed, and he fell heavily to the ground.

His eyes rolled back, unable to utter another word, spitting out a mouthful of blood before fainting.

Silence―

Within the plaza of twenty thousand gathered, silent enough to hear a pin drop.

As people looked at the Base Commander, there was fear, doubt, and relief...

Some did not believe the young man’s words; the Base Commander’s image was deeply ingrained, and they couldn’t believe the Base Commander would sabotage his own established base.

Others believed it but felt helpless as no one was a match for the Base Commander, and indeed this was the safest place in Shanghai.

In short, everyone’s emotions were very complex.

"The True God will eventually be born; they will unite with zombies and ultimately eradicate all humans!"

Another voice arose; a powerful energy fluctuation lingered in the plaza.

A few people at the front suddenly charged at the unconscious young man, their voices reaching every ear without missing a word.

"We urge everyone with our death, never to trust those high-ranking zombies that look human; they will not spare humanity, and humans should not associate with them!"

After speaking, these few suddenly strangled the young man lying on the ground, then drew out the prepared daggers to slash their own throats directly.

Resolute and crisp.

Red blood inundated the view, making it impossible for anyone to ignore.

The Base Commander’s brow furrowed slightly, his face returning to calmness, his steady voice echoing throughout the plaza,

"Leng Yebai is my son and the newly appointed Vice Captain of the Alliance; he will not betray humanity, and neither will I; everyone can rest assured."

"These people are subordinates of some mysterious organization, here to sow discord between us; their words are untrustworthy."

As the Base Commander finished speaking, voices of doubt arose among the crowd.

"You are his dad; of course, you’ll speak for him. If he really did side with zombies, wouldn’t that harm everyone!"

"Right!"

"We’re about to develop a vaccine; we don’t want to die at this point."

"Could the Alliance also be deceived by him? It can’t be! Leng Yebai is a super strong user; he doesn’t need to side with zombies!"

...

The discussions buzzed, and although the Base Commander effectively interrupted that Special Ability User’s voice, doubts still lingered in some minds.

"Many might not know, Yunhua Safety Base used to be my estate, and I personally founded this base; under no circumstances would I allow zombies to wreak havoc in my home, nor allow anyone to bully my son here."

"If anyone doubts my son, please don’t live in my house; you are unwelcome here."

Having said that, a suffocating pressure exuded from the Base Commander, unapologetically pressing upon everyone present.

He created this safety base with his own agenda.

He hoped that when his long-lost son is chased by zombies, a safe haven would be available. Now that his son is found, the base can be optional.

He’s never afraid of the safety base dissolving; he merely feels this is his home, a home for him and his son.

If others live here, they need to distinguish that he isn’t running a charity; this territory belongs to Leng Xiao, and everyone must comply with him.

If you can’t bear it, then get out!

Bai Xiqin glanced at Leng Yebai, only feeling his grip tightening on her hand, his face showed no particular expression.

Noticing Bai Xiqin looking at him, Leng Yebai tugged at the corner of his mouth.

"Luckily, that person didn’t have a chance to mention your names."

Others may doubt him, but they cannot question Xiao Niu, or he wouldn’t be so accommodating now.

Bai Xiqin slightly raised an eyebrow, smiling as she said, "It doesn’t make much difference; we’re not separated from each other."

Upon hearing Xiao Niu’s words, Leng Yebai smiled gently, not feeling any negativity from others doubting him.

Others are just others; no matter what they say about him, as long as Xiao Niu accepts him and he remains within the Bai Family’s circle, the world hasn’t abandoned him.

What he desires is to live together with Xiao Niu; other people’s perceptions aren’t very important.

...Besides.

Leng Yebai’s eyes glimmered; perhaps he indeed has to unite with zombies eventually.

This is part of Captain Zhang’s plan.

Even without Captain Zhang explicitly stating, you could somewhat guess; his interactions with Zhang Yiming already indicate future trends.

Coexistence between humans and zombies!

For those who deeply hate zombies, this is simply an absurdity.

But those truly at the peak will understand; it’s an inevitable phenomenon.

Humans cannot completely eradicate zombies, to calm down, only this way is possible.

However, Leng Yebai still doesn’t know which mode Captain Zhang will choose for coexistence, nor how everyone will accept it!

"Let this matter end here; I hope everyone won’t be misled. Those who wish to leave the Safety Base, leave directly; those unhappy with me or aiming for my son and me can also act; I’m right here."

The Base Commander still hadn’t withdrawn his pressure, calmly observing the crowd in the plaza.

To be honest, those just bewitched by the Special Ability User’s manipulation, were already overwhelmed by tremendous fear within.

This overwhelming pressure left no room for thought, only silent acceptance.

Resistance is impossible; compared to the Base Commander, everyone is just an ant.

The Base Commander is their ultimate idol, the man who single-handedly killed the Zombie King.

If one couldn’t even believe his words, leaving here wouldn’t provide any place for establishment.

Most people, though harboring some doubts, resigned themselves; the Alliance recognized Leng Yebai, seemingly leaving nothing to worry about.

If they must die, let all humans die together!

No regrets.

A small group, stubborn-minded, still harbored doubts about Leng Yebai, simply wanting to leave the Safety Base promptly.

They didn’t even know where to go, only unwilling to stay here.

The crowd in the plaza gradually dispersed, and the Bai Family quietly returned to the bus.

No one’s managed to watch gossip about themselves like this, especially when they were so enthusiastic just moments ago...

The Bai Family didn’t notice, as they left the plaza, Zhang Ping was in a corner muttering to herself.

"Yes, yes, got it; tomorrow I’ll go to the Bai Family."

No one was by her side; her hand lightly pressed at the temple, and an apparatus beneath her hair emitted waves invisible to the human eye.
