The emergence of the zombie tide has made the people of the hope base even more panicked.

Previously, only other bases in the surrounding provinces and cities encountered the zombie tide. Everyone was human. Although there would be a sense of urgency in their hearts, it was definitely not as strong as the feeling after experiencing this in person.

In particular, I don't know where it started. The news of a fifth-order zombie appeared, and it quickly spread in the base. It made the survivors in the base sensitive and fragile because of the zombie tide. Suddenly it broke.

Ruan Ning guessed that the so-called fifth-order zombie with nose and eyes recently passed on in the base should be the zombie king from the previous life. If it really has reached the fifth rank now, then its evolution speed is much faster than the previous life, and it has advanced to the fifth rank in less than a year.

Through the plot, Ruan Ning knew that the Zombie King's scope of activities has always been in the imperial capital and several surrounding provinces and cities, but it is generally seen as a dragon, and it is difficult for humans to see it. Occasionally, survivors or teams found the figure of the zombie king, and it was difficult to escape from its hands, so it has always been a mystery.

In the last life, it was not until the zombie king who wanted to break through the sixth order that he frequently attacked passing power users before the vast number of survivors knew of its existence.

"Yanyan, do you believe that there is a zombie king in this world?" When Gu Yicheng asked this sentence, his expression was dark and unpredictable, and his emotions were rarely revealed.

Ruan Ning didn't know whether other people believed it or not. Anyway, she, a transmigrator, of course believed in the existence of the Zombie King, and she also knew that the Zombie King and him were old enemies to some extent. She bit her lip, Said, "Everything will not come out of nowhere, maybe it's just like the rumors, there really are fifth-order zombies now."

"Then aren't you afraid?" Gu Yicheng restrained the dignified expression on his face and gently touched her head. He learned that many survivors in the base felt very taboo about this matter, and some even planned to leave the Hope Base and find another place with fewer zombies. Recently, even within their team, there are many individuals discussing this matter. .

Ruan Ning stared at the person in front of him, shook his head, and said softly, "Not afraid."

Saying that, she reached out and took his hand, with a warm and bright smile on her face, "With my brother here, I will never be afraid."

Gu Yicheng was stunned for a moment, then laughed softly, and took advantage of the situation to tighten her slender, snow-white hands, promising, "Brother will always protect you."

Yes, his little girl doesn't need to be afraid. As long as he is here, he will hold up the sky above her for her.

Gu Yicheng's thunder-type abilities had already broken through the fifth-order, but he was temporarily stuck at this level, and the space-type abilities were directly stuck at the fourth-order.

In order to break through this bottleneck, Gu Yicheng has been taking his team out of the base to do missions more and more recently.

With the increase in the number of tasks, the points of the Chenxi team have become more and more, and gradually, the team's ranking has changed from the top 50 to the top 30, the top 20, the top 10, and the top 5. The morning team has now completely appeared. In front of the public, the reputation of the Hope Base is getting bigger and bigger, and the people in the Hope Base who have not heard of their name are now in the minority.

Because the team's reputation has soared, there are more and more ability players who want to join their team. If the team wants to develop, it is definitely not enough to rely on the current number of people in their team. The inevitable result is that their team recruits people, and they pay attention to the principle of not having too much. I would rather slowly recruit suitable people in the base than lowering my requirements in order to fill up the number of people.

So in the past few months, they have recruited 10 people in total. Compared with other teams that also ranked at the top, the Morning Squad has more than a little less of the number of new additions. However, they are not in a hurry. These ten people have everything from power types to power levels, and it took a lot of thought. It won't be any worse than the number of people recruited by other teams.

At the end of April, the Dawn Team took on a mission related to the Zombie King.

This time the task is very important, so the people who go there are not only their Dawn Team. Along with them, there were two other teams from Hope Base.

Their mission this time is to investigate the whereabouts of the zombie king.

Speaking of which, there is one team, and they still have some fate with their Dawn Team.

When he was in the Yancheng base, there was an incident of mutated animals causing the survivors to be infected. This team was hired by the restaurant owner to protect him at that time.

They turned out to be the most ferocious team in the Yancheng base. The name of the team is Thunder Squad. There are not many people in the team, there are only six people in total, but each of them is very strong, but contrary to the strength of the Thunder Team, they had a particularly bad reputation in the Yancheng base. Because as long as someone can afford a high enough remuneration, they can take on any job, whether it's killing people and stealing goods or other things, so the people in the base are in awe of them and fear them from the bottom of their hearts.

It's just that at that time, the Chenxi team was in a hurry to leave the base, and left after watching the excitement. The two sides had never met or had any contact.

Unexpectedly, they have come to the Hope Base now.

In this mission, Ruan Ning will also go with the team, because in addition to exploring the whereabouts of the zombie king, the main purpose of this trip is to find a suitable place for Xiaohua to settle down.

Gu Yicheng thought about it for a while, and finally decided to send this mutant plant back to where it stayed in the previous life. The place that it occupied most of the city was in City C in the Imperial Capital Province. City C was a tourist city before the end of the world. It was also because it was such a city with many zombies that the giant flowers of the previous life could take root there. , occupying such a large territory, no one dares to provoke it.

Since this mutant plant could survive in such a huge city in the last life, there must be a reason for it. This time, instead of trying to find another place that may not be suitable for it, it is better to let it take root there, maybe the day when the small flower becomes a giant flower is just around the corner.

Of course, this little thing doesn't stay in the imperial capital, it will not be so easy for Ning Ning to see it in the future, and it can no longer be the light bulb between the two of them. This is what makes Gu Yicheng even more satisfied. , he was eager to give it away sooner.

It just so happens that City C is not far from the location where they explored the whereabouts of the Zombie King next. This time, they can find an opportunity to send it there on the way.
