Chapter 168: Returning to the safe zone

Since they have decided to return today, Huo Zaiyuan and Long Zhanye have lunch in the space, filling their stomach first before heading back.

Ever since reaching the sixth level, Huo Zaiyuan begins to avoid eating meat altogether. Just fruits, vegetables and grain are enough. Hence, most of the meat stored in this space is fed to Long Zhanye.

Although the other man awakened his powers and mediates from time to time to cultivate, he is clearly still the same old Long Zhanye who has to have meat at every meal. If anything, his love for meat dishes increased two-folds. However, no matter how much meat the other eats, his body will not expel the impurities within his body like Huo Zaiyuan.

After regaining his memories, Long Zhanye also stops forcing Huo Zaiyuan to drink meat broths, only ensuring he drinks a bowl whenever a clear soup is cooked, like today.

"Here, have some."

"Un."

As soon as they finish their meal, the two men exit the space, followed closely by two tails, Liu Ying and Lu Er. Due to Huo Zaiyuan immediately giving chase after Long Zhanye was injured and carried off by Cheng Mingcheng, Huo Zaiyuan's modified Hummer is parked in the car park below the dormitory building. Luckily, Long Zhanye's military Hummer is still in the space. If it isn't for this car, the two of them will really have to walk back on foot.

After Long Zhanye repaired this Hummer back in Z City, it hasn't seen use until now. Fortunately, the space has the heaven-defying ability to preserve everything, or else this car that has been sitting in the space gathering figurative dust for two years would have long rusted away.

Sliding into the driver seat of his beloved Hummer, Long Zhanye feels very content. Even after two years of driving other vehicles, his favourite car is still the best.

Huo Zaiyuan can't resist the teasing smile that surfaces at Long Zhanye's infatuated look. "Chauffer, are you still not going to drive?"

"Roger that, my beloved wifey!" Long Zhanye salutes with a roguish smirk before starting the Hummer's engine.

"Who's your wife..." Huo Zaiyuan complains half-heartedly as the vehicle speeds in the direction of the city.

A little more than an hour later, the military Hummer approaches the city's northern city wall. After suffering under a wave of undead, fierce artillery barrage as well as a rain of bullets, the pavement here is full of pot-holes and large cracks. Not a trace of moving zombies can be seen, let alone their remains.

Although the plan crafted between Long Zhanye and He Lianming can be easily replicated by anyone, their approach is long, meticulous and top secret. One is tasked with investigating every nook and cranny, pretending to defect, drawing out the danger seeking to turn the earth upside down from within the safe zone. In the end, they brought in Huo Zaiyuan to hand an invitation to a funeral to Xu Mingyi. Using this event as the fuse, He Lianming infiltrated the enemy ranks and provoked zombies to attack the safe zone. This way, they can clear the majority of undead and pull this 'Sorceror's cult' out by the roots, directly cutting out a malignant tumour growing in the darkness.

The plan proceeded rather smoothly until the end, with neither taking into account something like Cheng Mingcheng happening. This oversight resulted in Long Zhanye being injured and captured.

When this storm blew over, peace returns to the safe zone and a bustle of activity returns. Numerous vehicles enter and exit the gates as mercenary squads depart or return from their missions.

After Judgement Day, don't say ordinary soldiers, even the high-ranking officers in the military may not necessarily be able to drive this sort of majestic military Hummer everywhere. Thus, when said Hummer approaches the gate, it draws a lot of attention and causes several heated discussions to break out.
