Apocalypse King System

Chapter 257: Liu Yuanbing's Frustration



Mu Ling and another person followed behind Liu Yuanbing, deliberately keeping a few steps behind.

"You tell me, what does he mean? Weren't these guys from the military region the ones who invited us over? Why does he suddenly seem like he wants to back out?" Lisa's lips moved slightly, and her soft voice reached Mu Ling's ears.

Mu Ling shook her head. Although she had not served in the military, she had been a special police officer before and had undergone some formal military training. Therefore, her political sensitivity was better than Lisa's, who was a famous star from before the apocalypse.

"It's not like that. Judging from the reaction of the general in front, it may be that there is disagreement within the military region, or someone made a decision without authorization, and he is not aware of it."

Mu Ling's speculation was probably close to the truth.

Lisa nodded, but a subtle, almost imperceptible smirk played on her lips. Easy come, easy go. Now that they were here, even if these people wanted to back out temporarily, they had to take these female soldiers back to the military region.

Just thinking about it, with five thousand female soldiers, it would significantly accelerate the development of the Order base. A group of combat-capable female warriors would also join the Order, making its expansion even more apparent.

However, soon they entered the main building, and Liu Yuanbing also met his father, Liu Jianye.

"Hello, Miss Fang. May I ask where the leader of the Grizzly City base, Mr. Derick, is?" Inside the military region building, Lisa and Mu Ling looked at the elderly man opposite them, somewhat surprised that such an old man had such influence.

Even if Lisa was not as familiar with the military as Mu Ling, she knew that making such a decision would be extremely difficult. Handing over one's soldiers to others was something only a madman would do.

"We're a bit busy with our main affairs in other cities, so we'll handle the task of accepting these female soldiers." Lisa took a few steps forward and spoke with a hint of assertiveness.

Liu Jianye visibly paused, but being an experienced person in handling challenges, he gestured towards the two and said, "Please."

"Hey, Dad, what's going on? Why are you doing this?" Liu Yuanbing was somewhat puzzled. His father had made these decisions without informing him, making him, as the leader of this military region, seem useless. Moreover, he even requested others to protect these female soldiers, making Liu Yuanbing feel embarrassed.

"If I don't do this, do you plan to confront those zombies? Are you going to ensure the safety of those female soldiers, or can you protect the precarious defense line?" Liu Jianye asked a few questions, effectively silencing Liu Yuanbing.

"But there's really no need for that..." Liu Yuanbing hesitated for a moment, still looking down on Lisa and her group. After all, he hadn't witnessed their strength firsthand, and the fact that the base leader hadn't shown up for such a significant matter made him naturally uneasy.

On the other hand, there were already some conflicts between the military region and Derick. Although they had temporarily set aside their differences due to the zombie tide, it didn't mean there was no underlying resentment.

"You don't need to say more. I've already made up my mind about this matter," Liu Jianye, a very seasoned individual, interrupted Liu Yuanbing's words when he sensed Lisa's impatience. It wasn't that he had great confidence in Lisa and her group from their first meeting; rather, it stemmed from the capabilities of those female soldiers, especially Liu Wanting.

Liu Jianye knew the abilities of his granddaughter well. If they could successfully bring Liu Wanting into Order and make her willingly join, that would be the best choice.

Liu Yuanbing wanted to say something more, but he saw his father enthusiastically leading Lisa and the others out. For a moment, Liu Yuanbing felt a bit frustrated. If the zombie tide couldn't be stopped, that was one thing, but now he had to hand over his female soldiers to others for protection, which felt like a tremendous loss of face.

The group walked out of the main building to the previously landed area where several military vehicles awaited.

"Judy, gather the troops, let's set out together!" Mu Ling called out to Judy, then waved her hand, and numerous female warriors followed the military vehicles, running behind.

Liu Jianye watched the commanding and proud mutated creature, as well as the fierce female soldiers, and his evaluation of Order rose to a higher level.

Although Liu Jianye hadn't personally witnessed the strength of these female warriors, he had received some intelligence. However, the momentum of this unit surpassed what he had seen in the photos. Comparing them to his elite troops, he realized that in terms of morale and killing intent, his elite forces were simply no match. These female warriors were on a whole different level.

Seeing the prowess of this thousand-strong unit of female warriors, all armed with cold weapons, Liu Jianye thought that perhaps sending them out was the best choice.

Judy patted Little Gold's wings, instructing it to wander inside the military region and not run around. Then, she boarded the military vehicle with Lisa and the others.

"You three are indeed formidable!"

Liu Jianye looked at Lisa and the two others, unable to refrain from expressing his admiration. With a seasoned gaze, he immediately discerned the backgrounds of the three.

Mu Ling was the easiest to identify, clad in police uniform and exuding a competent aura in her movements—clearly a police officer before the apocalypse.

As for Lisa, she was a famous star before the apocalypse, and even though Liu Jianye didn't pay much attention to the entertainment industry, he was aware of her fame.

Regarding Judy, by observing her personality and behavior, it was apparent that she was a recently graduated girl.

However, considering their current demeanor and aura, they all surpassed their original identities. The three emanated a strong killing intent. Liu Jianye could easily guess that these three, including the female warriors, had blood on their hands; otherwise, they wouldn't have cultivated such a disposition.

Just by looking at Lisa and her companions, Liu Jianye was somewhat astonished. He even became quite curious about the master of the Grizzly City base that Lisa mentioned—what kind of person could train such a group of female warriors?

"Old man, you talk too much. Let's get going!" Judy covered her mouth, appearing nonchalant.

Liu Jianye wasn't angered, but Liu Yuanbing, who followed behind, had a dark expression.

"I find it a bit strange, though. While the military region is currently dangerous, it's not at a desperate point. Moreover, by dispersing your forces, you should be able to reduce the number of zombie tides. How did it come to this?" Mu Ling voiced her doubts, having verified that zombie tides tend to attack larger gatherings of people, which the military region should be aware of.

"If that were the case, I wouldn't need to seek your help. But just take a look at this." Liu Jianye had one of his security personnel hand over several documents to Lisa and her group. The documents contained images and information about the appearance of the white-clad zombie girl.

After examining the information, both Lisa and Mu Ling were somewhat surprised. Judy, who was curious on the side, finally managed to snatch the documents from Lisa's hands and looked through them.

"Speaking of which, zombies evolving to this extent, they are almost indistinguishable from humans!" Lisa exclaimed. Although she often took the female warriors out to kill zombies, the most powerful mutated zombies she had encountered had weak intelligence, not even comparable to Little Gold, let alone displaying the characteristics of the white-clad girl zombie.

"Yes, the intelligence of this zombie is extremely high, almost on par with humans. We call her the White Queen. The military region has conducted several bombing and beheading operations against the White Queen, all of which ended in failure. She has even learned to control the zombie tide, divide forces, and employ various tactics, causing considerable difficulties for the military region," Liu Jianye explained with a wry smile. Over time, the tactical intelligence of this zombie queen has been slowly increasing, and she hasn't even exerted her full strength, seemingly treating their military region as prey to be slowly slaughtered.

"Even so, it's a bitter fruit you've brought upon yourselves. I was wondering before why the majority of the zombies in Grizzly suddenly gathered near the military region," Mu Ling's tone carried a hint of sarcasm. If it weren't for the military region's own reckless pursuit of studying the zombie virus, they wouldn't have created such a terrifying zombie queen.
