Rebirth: Leading Families to Survive in the Apocalypse novel Chapter 304

Chapter 304 -304: The Struggle for the Mysterious Fire Fan

Liang Jiuhui also let out a sigh of relief. He didn’t know how Su Jin and Lu Hao managed to hold out for so long, but he felt at ease once he saw them finally returning to rest with the team.

Although it was already late in the evening, the plants outside the gate hadn’t been retracted by Su Jin, and Liang Jiuhui was organizing the remaining special ability users to continue fighting.

“Those plants are impressive; they should consume a good number of zombies if left out overnight,”

Li Haochu said, standing beside Liang Jiuhui.

“Over one night, at least ten thousand, I guess!”

Liang Jiuhui had just made a rough estimate in his mind.

...

By now, inside and outside the fence were scattered remains of shoes and clothes left by the man-eating flowers, along with many unsettling patches of hair, but everyone no longer found those gruesome remains disgusting. On the contrary, they even felt a sense of amusement.

Su Jin and her group hadn’t expected to be stopped on their way back.

Due to the zombie tide, many people in the base hadn’t rested, so the base was still brightly lit at this moment.

Besides the one woman and three men blocking the car, there were a dozen others standing by. Although the group in front had put on ingratiating smiles, they seemed to have bad intentions.

The group waited for a while, but when no one got out of the three vehicles, their expressions nearly collapsed.

The people in the two cars behind saw that Su Jin and the others hadn’t gotten out and, although they didn’t know what was happening, they had no intention of exiting the vehicles either.

Since they only planned to stay within the base today, Su Jin hadn’t equipped the three cars with walkie-talkies.

“What’s wrong with these people? I’m still waiting to go back and rest,”

Lin Xiuyuan complained.

Seeing that the group didn’t intend to move aside, Su Jin finally rolled down the car window.

“What’s the matter?” Su Jin asked, expressionless.

The tall woman at the front got a bit annoyed seeing they had only opened the window halfway. She seemed about to say something when a man behind her stopped her.

The man stepped forward and said to Su Jin, “Hello, we’re from the Red Flame Team. We witnessed your elegance today and sincerely aspire to it. We’d like to invite everyone out of the car for a chat.”

Although the window was only halfway open, Tao Kuan was still awed by Su Jin’s beauty while he spoke. He had only seen her from a distance and hadn’t expected such a powerful wood element ability user to also look so delicate and beautiful.

Su Jin didn’t understand what these people were thinking. Surely no one would be in the mood to “have a chat” with a bunch of strangers after slaughtering zombies for half a day, right?

“We need to hurry back to rest; we don’t have time to listen to your rambling,”

Lin Xiuyuan also rolled down the window on the passenger side and said.

Lu Hao sat next to Su Jin, and he hadn’t expected anyone to dare block their car inside the base. However, since Su Jin had told him to rest and not worry about it, he just sat back and watched with a smile, enjoying the feeling of being protected.

But the several people outside the window apparently hadn’t given up, and the tall woman said to Lin Xiuyuan, “We’ve come to discuss the zombie tide. Don’t you wish to cooperate?”

“What’s up? Spit it out; I’m listening,”

Lin Xiuyuan leaned on the car window and looked at them. His nonchalant attitude made Tao Kuan feel like he couldn’t continue with what he was about to say.

“Young man, here’s the deal. Our Red Flame Team has seven fire element ability users, including one at Level Three. We’re about to go outside the base to join the fight against the zombie tide, and we’d like to borrow the Treasured Fan from your group. We’ll definitely return it after use,”

Tao Kuan said amiably. Under normal circumstances, he wouldn’t have been confident about borrowing it, but since they were heading to fight the zombie tide, these people should weigh their decision, shouldn’t they?

“Are you trying to be funny?”

Lin Xiuyuan felt speechless. Why did they think they would lend them the fan?

“Dad, drive. Let’s go,”

Su Jin said coldly. There was no room for negotiation on this matter. She wasn’t interested in wasting time with idiots.
