"Officer..."
Watching everyone leave, Wang Dapao cautiously called out to Tang Ye, and before he could finish his sentence, Tang Ye turned around and interrupted in a low voice, "Are you also wondering why I’m doing this?"
Hearing this, Wang Dapao couldn’t help but wipe the cold sweat from his forehead. If he had any doubts about Tang Ye’s identity before, now they were completely dispelled!
The words Tang Ye said to the workers just now carried a strong sense of oppression and a kind of confidence!
This was the confidence of trampling all the rules underfoot!
Lawless, reckless!
It seed that anything blocking his path would be pulverized!
Confident that no one could do anything to him!
As for that sense of oppression, he found it hard to describe. He had faced Su Sigui before and felt a similarly strong sense of oppression from him, but that oppression was the kind of undeniable and unresistable feeling from a subordinate to a superior!
But the oppression from Tang Ye only made him feel as if he was suddenly standing in a barren wasteland and then encountering a prehistoric beast!
That sense of horror...
Sowhat familiar?
He searched his mory for the source of that familiar feeling, thought for a long ti, and finally found the mont when he had felt the sa before.
It was the mont he saw the Zombie King through an online video!
That sense of insignificance when one was an ant!
Indescribable.
But anyway, it seems only soone like Li Henian could handle being governor and contain the other new humans at Cloud Gorge Base.
"No... not really, I just..."
"Alright, I don’t expect you to understand, just do as I said. Those few people I pointed out, let them keep working underground, no matter what happens, their positions cannot change."
"Yes!" Wang Dapao dared not say anything else; his only choice was to nod. Tang Ye continued, "Moreover, if anyone asks you to switch jobs or wants to quit, imdiately send soone to Sky Continent Shanhe T69 District Tianyun Watercolor No. 1 to inform ."
"Understood."
Tang Ye nodded, but then thought of sothing and added, "If Su Sigui cos to ask you about today’s situation, just say it’s at my request."
"I’ll rember. But officer, our work here runs on dual shifts. Now that the B team has swapped assignnts at the eleventh level relay station, do we need to adjust the A team as well?"
"Dual shifts huh..." Tang Ye recalled; he rembered last night the twenty or so zombies here were scattered everywhere, not within the construction base.
So he asked, "When is the handover happening?"
"Eight fifty." Wang Dapao answered.
"We’ll see, if sothing cos up here, I’ll co by tonight, if not, I won’t."
"Alright." Though he didn’t know what Tang Ye was referring to, he wisely refrained from asking and just agreed.
Seeing that he understood, Tang Ye didn’t stay any longer, turning around to leave.
"Officer, it’s almost alti, how about we grab sothing to eat first?"
"No need."
Tang Ye certainly understood it was Wang Dapao’s courtesy; he didn’t agree, shaking his head decisively as he left. As he exited, Tang Ye glanced at the ti—it was almost eight o’clock. Ah Fu had already prepared dinner at so restaurant and sent a ssage for him to co over.
After confirming the direction, Tang Ye walked towards Ah Fu’s location.
As usual, most of the dishes Ah Fu and the others ordered consisted of raw at. While these foods could be accepted by zombies, the vitality they offered was insignificant to a high-level zombie. Perhaps due to being accustod to living among humans in the Royal Court, the Royal Court zombies, represented by Ah Fu, had developed a habit of three als a day, though these als were rely to satisfy their cravings.
In the private room, after several rounds of drinks, Tang Ye greeted Ah Fu and the others before leaving the room and the restaurant.
It was now late at night. The al had lasted nearly three hours, and the ti had co to eleven o’clock in the evening. The streets were sparsely populated. Tang Ye looked in the direction of the construction base, and simultaneously his perception radiated in that direction.
At this ti, the day-night shift at the construction base should have completed the handover. The Level 7 zombies who originally worked inside had also clocked out, dispersed everywhere. Notably, several zombies were staying with a Level 8 zombie.
"Is it their ruler..." Tang Ye pondered for a mont, then, as if recalling sothing, took out his phone to send a ssage to soone, before heading towards the Level 8 zombie’s location.
As ti trickled by, about seven minutes to midnight, Tang Ye stood in front of a half-destroyed abandoned building, deep in thought.
"This is quite unexpected." Observing the scene, Tang Ye showed an inexplicable smile. It was silent all around, not a shadow in sight. This was the first ti Tang Ye had seen such a desolate scene in Cloud Gorge Base. Clearly, this place had seen a great battle, the timing of which was unknown, but the air still faintly lingered with a hint of scorched scent.
Within a few kiloters, not a single intact building could be found; traces of new human destruction were everywhere. Possibly due to the absence of lighting, the atmosphere was a bit eerie, and the wild wind howled, disturbing a strange-looking vulture not far away.
If Tang Ye were rely a new human, he might never believe anyone was here, but coincidentally, he was a zombie. Whether it was his sensitivity to the sll of living creatures, his hearing, or his perception, all told him there were many people beneath his feet!
The noise from the people was raucous, suggesting a scene illuminated brightly below.
Among them, a few Level 7 zombies mingled with a Level 8 zombie!
"Hmm~" Tang Ye scanned the area, then began wandering around, but after searching for ages, he couldn’t find the entrance to the basent.
"Ma De, hidden quite well."
...
Another half an hour later, Tang Ye tore down the thick wall in front of him, revealing not a hidden compartnt, but the deep night outside. Gazing at the full moon, Tang Ye sighed helplessly.
Perhaps he shouldn’t have wasted ti in the first place.
Should have gone hardcore from the start.
Shaking his head, Tang Ye approached above the basent, confird the location, then clenched his fist, raised it, and suddenly struck the ground!
Thud!
