Apart from the four people including Lin Cheng working at the base and the three including Guo Yang taking care of the shop, everyone else, including Local Tyrant Gold, followed as well. Fortunately, the two vehicles had just enough space to accommodate everyone.

Su Jin planned that when they returned, she and Lu Hao would no longer travel separately. Instead, they could simply follow the convoy and protect the survivors.

Once the group left the territory of City West, they could gradually see hordes of zombies wandering the streets.

As they were going to take the same route back they had come, Su Jin didn’t refuse when Lin Xiuyuan suggested they get out and clear a wave of zombies first.

“You have 10 minutes,” Su Jin said as she looked at her watch.

“Roger that!” Lin Xiuyuan jumped out, and cheers could be heard from the other vehicle over the walkie-talkie.

Su Xiangzhe also released his Thunder Element Ability with great delight. These past days everyone in his family had been leveling up, so he needed to work hard too!

Nie Qing no longer used his Wind Element Ability to float in the air. Instead, he focused all his Special Ability on attacking. His and Xue Wanyi’s Wind Blades could decapitate a zombie in one strike, although occasionally they accidentally targeted the same zombie.

Su Jin felt that she and Lu Hao didn’t need to make a move at all—they could just follow behind and pick up Crystal Cores…

Such mid-journey stops occurred about three times, but the group still arrived at the Refuge on time.

Peng Qi was astonished to see two brand-new SUVs parked outside the Refuge. Xue Wanyi, who got out first, was wearing sunglasses and had a face freshly shaven with a hint of stubble, making Peng Qi think for a moment that he was a mafia boss who had arrived.

It wasn’t until he saw Su Jin and Lu Hao alight from the vehicle that he confidently went in to report. So Su Jin and Lu Hao brought support today?

Liang Wei invited Su Jin and her group into the conference room.

When Liang Wei learned that all these people had accompanied Su Jin and Lu Hao to escort the survivors back to the base, he was so touched he didn’t know what to say.

“Uncle Liang, all the Crystal Cores we gathered on the road are ours, and your son has already provided corresponding compensation,” Su Jin said with a smile.

“Material wealth is extraneous; it shouldn’t be confused with your goodwill. In any case, I represent the survivors of City S and thank you,” Liang Wei said sincerely.

Today, there were even more survivors to transfer than the day before, around 1,500. To shorten the length of the convoy as much as possible, the seating arrangements in the vehicles were somewhat cramped, but most survivors had no complaints.

Ever since the Zombie Rat incident, everyone wanted to leave this place as quickly as possible, and those who registered for the last batch to depart were now deeply regretting it. After all, the prospect of eating one more day of free food paled in comparison to their own safety.

The crowded seats, however, annoyed a few survivors, specifically the same foreigners from M country who had demanded that Liang Wei provide them with housing and protection in the base.

Since learning that Liang Wei was a tough nut to crack, they’d kept a low profile for a while. Although there were some frictions with local survivors in the Refuge, the area managers had managed to resolve the issues by playing them down.

Now, these few individuals were demanding that Liang Wei provide them with separate transportation to the base, and the vehicles they selected were the two SUVs parked by Su Jin’s group at the roadside.

“You must give us a different vehicle, we won’t ride in that kind of car! Mr. Hubbard insists on taking this vehicle,” a young foreign woman stated, pointing with her finger at the two SUVs belonging to Su Jin’s group.

Su Jin was amused by their arrogant attitude; this was her first encounter with such unreasonable foreigners.

“Last time, it was these jerks who demanded the base provide them with food and shelter, and even wanted Special Ability Users to protect them. I can’t believe they’re still bouncing around here,”

Xue Wanyi shared with everyone the incidents he and Guo Yang and Lu Hao had witnessed during their last visit.

“This is a private vehicle and cannot be provided to you,” Liang Wei refused firmly but politely.

The young foreign woman, though not from these parts, clearly understood Chinese.

After she translated Liang Wei’s words to the blond, blue-eyed man, the foreigners started saying things that Liang Wei and the others couldn’t understand; without a translator, no one understood what they were saying, but from their expressions and attitudes, it was clear they weren’t saying anything pleasant.

But while others couldn’t understand, Su Jin, who had been a translator before the Apocalypse, did.

The blond, blue-eyed foreigner continued harping on about something, incessantly pointing at Liang Wei and the people around him.

Suddenly, a hard wooden spike appeared right in front of his forehead, backed by a vine full of barbs.

The foreigner’s cold sweat instantly streamed down, his eyes crossing in panic and he swallowed hard, not daring to move a muscle, barely able to glance at the person who had unleashed the wooden spike with the corner of his eye.

“Dare to insult my Huaxia again, and this spike won’t be just appearing in front of you next time!” Su Jin glared at him, full of anger.

Su Jin spoke in Chinese and had no intention of kindly translating for them, but she was sure that they all understood her now.

“You can’t treat us like this!” the young foreign woman protested in broken Chinese.

“Then, on someone else’s turf, please put away your worthless sense of superiority,” Su Jin said just as fluently in a foreign language to them.

The foreign individuals looked at each other in a panic, huddled together and mumbled something among themselves, and then the one named Hubbard glanced at Su Jin before heading onto the bus.

“Su Jin, you were so cool just now, I’m about to cry,”

Lin Xiuyuan exaggeratedly exclaimed. As a high school senior, although he didn’t completely understand what those people said, he guessed enough from context and Su Jin’s response, and the pride welled up inside him.

Could this be the legendary sense of national pride?

Liang Wei and the others also gave Su Jin a thumbs-up; it was the first time he saw those people show fear towards someone. Previously, even though they always left his place defeated, they maintained their cursing and swearing.

Xue Wanyi felt even more admiration for Su Jin, thinking that the knowledgeable really knew how to reprimand others satisfyingly.

Lu Hao looked at Su Jin with affection, her outbreak having been both beautiful and impressive; moreover, her defense of her own country inspired everyone present, including the Survivors in the bus not far away, causing the few who got on the bus to receive a flurry of disdainful looks.

“It’s only right, they were the ones who spoke disrespectfully first,”

Su Jin told Lin Xiuyuan, indicating that if she encountered these people behaving like that again, she would take action every single time.
