Chapter 420: 387 people can all grow tails now!

The Commander of F City had no idea that Xiang City Base would resolve the issue so quickly.

On every front, even the least capable family led by Ah Fu, was keeping a tight watch over the supply market.

There was no chaos anywhere.

Where chaos did erupt, piles of zombie bodies quickly amassed, which Xiang City Base promptly cleaned up.

The speed of cleanup was unimaginable.

This left the Commander of F City quite astonished.

He hadn’t anticipated that, despite the apparent lack of an administrative hierarchy at Xiang City Base, everything was managed exceptionally well.

A base like Xiang City could not possibly be so easily overrun by the Zombie Tide.

Moreover, Xiang City had Gong Yi, with his terrifying superpower.

It was truly envy-inducing, why was Gong Yi at Xiang City Base?

Why wasn’t Gong Yi in F City?

The survivor tasked with transporting supplies held his cell phone, at a loss for words.

At any rate, putting on airs and courting favor with Xiang City Base was no longer possible.

Then he heard his own Commander speak on the phone:

“Since Xiang City Base has already resolved the problem without needing any help from us in F City, let’s all return to our original positions.”

“When will you be able to bring out the supplies?”

F City had a special squad responsible for transporting supplies.

All they needed to do was purchase supplies from inside Xiang City Base and deliver them to F City.

Even though entering and exiting Xiang City Base could take over a week, the coordination within the supply squad was excellent.

Every day, people successfully passed through Xiang City Base’s observation area, entering the base to transport goods out of the city.

Although the quantity was not substantial, their efforts were as incessant and diligent as ants moving their home.

The survivor transporting goods spoke hesitantly to the F City Commander on the other end of the phone:

“The supply market in Xiang hasn’t opened yet, it’s been continuously closed, I don’t know either.”

“We might as well wait a while longer, maybe Xiang City Base will give us an explanation.”

The urgency in the Commander’s tone became quite apparent:

“How can we wait? There are many survivors in F City, what will we do if we run out of supplies?”

“We must figure out a way to transport the supplies from Xiang City Base out of the city as soon as possible.”

But no matter how anxious he was, as long as Xiang City Base had control over the supplies and did not open the supply market, no survivor could transport goods out of the city.

Urgency? Panic served no purpose at all.

Meanwhile, the news that Xiang City Base had survived yet another crisis spread to E City.

In E City, Chen Hu’s expression darkened as he slammed his fist onto the desk.

Qu Shiheng also looked miserable; he said to Chen Hu:

“We have suffered heavy losses this time; how can Xiang bear so much?”

God knows how much the Qu Family had sacrificed to coordinate with Chen Hu.

The Qu Family had provided many people to support Chen Hu.

Yet this one wave had carried away most of the Qu Family’s followers.

Chen Hu watched Qu Shiheng with a dark expression, his tone was very unpleasant; what he did not reveal to Qu Shiheng was that this time, Chen Hu had wagered all his assets.

The last of the hidden forces within Xiang City had all been deployed by Chen Hu.

Still, they had failed.

From this point on, Chen Hu had no more cards to play.

But he wouldn’t share this with Qu Shiheng; after all, this was a very pragmatic world.

If Qu Shiheng knew that Chen Hu had no more leverage, he would cease cooperating with him.

At the least in E City, Qu Shiheng would abandon Chen Hu, leaving him to become just an ordinary survivor.

Qu Shiheng continued to rage inside the tent, his tone accusatory as he spoke to Chen Hu,

“You assured me that this time, we would definitely succeed; even if we couldn’t kill Gong Yi and bring down Xiang City, at least you could’ve killed Hua Mi.”

“That was your promise.”

Because only with Hua Mi dead could Gong Yi’s wife’s position open up.

Then, using the relationship between the two bases, Qu Shiheng planned to propose a powerful alliance with Gong Yi, having him marry his sister Qu Yimin.

To smoothly transition Gong Yi and the soldiers under his command, stationed at the base, to pledge allegiance to E City Base.

But now, Hua Mi was alive and well.

Not only was she well, but she had also given birth to Gong Yi’s child.
