Little Dao, who was in the vehicle, went from initial panic to current calmness.
The emotional fluctuations in his heart followed a contrasting pattern.
Regardless, he was at ease now.
Little Dao sensed an unusual gaze on him. He turned his head to look and unexpectedly found Nguy Ho staring at him with a very resentful and angry expression.
Little Dao revealed a brilliant smile, as if to say, "Why are you looking at me? I did advise you, but you chose the wrong path."
At this moment, Little Dao was extremely at ease.
So what if Nguy Ho was right behind him? He still had Lam Pham driving the car. That long-lost self-confidence instantly surged, feeling incredibly relaxed.
It was just that he was a little uncomfortable now; his body couldn't take it. With the trajectory of landing, his bladder felt a bit uneasy, always feeling the urge to urinate. He could only hold it in, hoping to reach the destination quickly.
After a while.
Huong Son Film City Base.
The patrolling survivors saw a bus descend from the sky and instantly wet their pants. When they saw someone lifting the bus, their mouths gaped open, dumbfounded, as if they had seen a ghost.
Right until they saw that figure.
They exclaimed fiercely and in astonishment.
"It's him, Lam Pham."
"The god of Hoang City Sunshine Shelter."
An unchangeable title; in their hearts, he was a god who could lead them to destroy the apocalypse and sing triumphantly towards the light of hope.
"Brother Lam, where is this?"
Little Dao and the others got off the bus in a daze, looking around at the surroundings with confusion. They looked up at the large characters on the city gate, feeling extremely strange. Why had they suddenly arrived at Huong Son Film City?
"This is the Huong Son Film City base. A group of survivors lives here. I came here for something."
Lam Pham's purpose in coming here was indeed to see them, and conveniently, to see Chu Bang.
At this time.
Mao Binh, Dam Thanh, and others hurriedly came out to greet them, their faces filled with smiles. They were truly very welcoming of Lam Pham's arrival.
"Hello everyone."
Lam Pham smiled and greeted them. What he was in contact with now was the Huong Son base, which was also a base with connections at a distance from Hoang City.
The scale wasn't small; in the apocalypse, it was also a mainstay force. The Huong Son base had indeed put in some effort in its outer wall defenses, installing things that could restrict zombies from climbing. Perhaps these couldn't stop a true zombie army.
But the effect was still there.
"They are?"
Mao Binh could tell from the appearance of this group that they were survivors rescued by Lam Pham. As for why he asked, wasn't this a very normal thing? A common human ailment was liking to ask about things already seen.
For example, on the street, when meeting, people would always ask what you were doing.
Did that even need to be asked?
Definitely strolling.
If not strolling on the street, could it be begging on the street?
Lam Pham said: "They are survivors from the Xi Ha tunnel. They encountered some trouble and contacted me. Oh right, there are still a few survivors in the car whose situation isn't very good. When we get back to Hoang City, I want to hand them over to Officer Hoang. Could I trouble you to watch them for me?"
Everyone heard this and instantly understood.
They had all seen the "Zombie Illustrated Guide."
It recorded that Officer Hoang was rated by Lam Pham as the only police officer in Hoang City, responsible for maintaining Hoang City's public security. For Lam Pham to hand survivors over to Officer Hoang…
…that must mean they had committed murder.
Cao Bac, who had been silent all along, volunteered, "Leave it to me. I like watching people the most."
"Thank you for your trouble."
Lam Pham was extremely grateful. Looking at Cao Bac holding two axes, with his strong body and bulging muscles, he felt reassured leaving them in his care.
Cao Bac laughed heartily and walked towards the bus. He definitely couldn't get on the bus with the axes, so he placed them outside and strode into the bus.
His tall physique was very intimidating.
Nguy Ho and the few survivors in the bus felt their hearts tremble when they saw the strange strong man. The other party gave them an extremely strong sense of oppression.
"Hello everyone, my name is Cao Bac. I've been sent to watch over you all."
Cao Bac casually walked to the front seat and sat down with a plop. For his physique, such a seat was a bit cramped.
Nguy Ho was extremely wary of Cao Bac. Such a strong physique was definitely not easy to mess with. However, he couldn't just sit and wait for death either.
He had been waiting for an opportunity all along.
Now his wrists were tied.
If it were before, he definitely wouldn't have been able to think of a way, but it was different now. He was a strength-type Awakened. Breaking free from this kind of ordinary rope was as simple as drinking water.
"You guys are pretty good, your physiques are not bad. You must have liked working out a lot before," Cao Bac chatted with them casually. They were all good seedlings; he just liked teaching others fitness.
Let them feel the joy and charm of fitness.
He had also made short videos before, telling viewers that men should work out. Looking like a skinny stick, with flimsy arms and legs, who could you protect? What else would you do if not work out?
"Mm."
Nguy Ho replied perfunctorily. His hands, placed below, gently exerted force, and the rope snapped. Then he exchanged glances with the survivors beside him. With a collision of gazes, everyone's hearts rejoiced. Brother Ho was going to fight back when cornered and save them from their predicament.
Full of anticipation.
Nguy Ho, sitting there, was extremely tense. Suddenly, like a fierce tiger descending the mountain, a ferocious aura erupted, and his arm locked around Cao Bac's throat.
Evidently, he wanted to finish off Cao Bac in the car.
Then drive away.
The other survivors in the car looked very excited at this scene, their faces flushed as they waved their tied hands. This was to cheer for Brother Ho. As for helping out, that was completely unnecessary.
Brother Ho alone was enough.
However... if there were no surprises, accidents would often happen.
Nguy Ho, who had just been gripping Cao Bac's throat, was instead lifted up by the other's hand, choking him.
"I was talking to you about fitness, yet you attacked and hurt me. If I hadn't insisted on working out and had a decent physique, I really might have fallen into your hands."
As soon as he finished speaking.
Cao Bac fiercely smashed Nguy Ho towards the ground. With a thud, the bus swayed, scaring the surrounding survivors into stunned silence, their eyes wide, as if they had seen a ghost.
Even Nguy Ho was dumbfounded. Intense pain enveloped his entire body, making him somewhat unable to believe what had just happened.
He was a strength-type Awakened. Let alone fitness enthusiasts, even professional weightlifters didn't have his strength. Could it be... this guy was also an Awakened?
Cao Bac raised his hand and slapped each of the dumbfounded survivors in the car.
"Big brother, don't hit us, it has nothing to do with us."
"Ah, save me!"
Miserable screams continued incessantly.
Cao Bac looked at them coldly and said: "Mr. Lam is such a friendly person, taking extra care of survivors in the apocalypse. For you to make Mr. Lam say he wants to personally deliver you to Officer Hoang, without saying anything else, you guys are really not good people."
He had long known that this group of people had serious problems.
He just came to play around intentionally.
And conveniently bully them well. When he was on the bus, he had observed the people present. The strong, dark-skinned fellow should be the leader.
He deliberately sat in front of him to lure him into making a mistake. This kind of fishing law enforcement was still quite overbearing.
Cao Bac cracked his knuckles, smiling as he looked at Nguy Ho.
"Your strength is not bad; you should be a strength-type Awakened. Just right to play with you."
"Is there no direct way for you to contact Chu Bang?"
Lam Pham looked extremely strange.
Dam Thanh said: "No, he has always been the one to find us. We only know that his base is in Diem City, and we don't even know the specific location."
After saying this, Dam Thanh himself also looked a bit dazed, clearly feeling where the problem lay.
Chu Bang had come to their place several times.
