The real big guys are those with connections in the eyes of the system!

The lack of medicine is indeed a big problem in this city.

If there are no finished drugs, can we find some Chinese herbal medicines?

Yiqing walked forward, thinking, and unknowingly returned to his residence.

Chen Hang just came back, and when he saw her and Huahua, he was obviously relieved.

He asked, "Everything is going well?"

Yiqing shook her head, "I didn't see anyone."

Chen Hang frowned. "He's putting on airs and not letting you in?"

"That's not the case. The gatekeeper said he went out. After all, he is in charge of the entire base, so it's normal for him to be busy." Yiqing said he understood.

"So you plan to go tomorrow?"

"Yes." Yiqing nodded, and then asked, "Are you going to do the mission with them tomorrow?"

"Well, there is one particularly strong one among those mutated zombies. He doesn't seem to be as dull as the other zombies. We suspect that he has gained intelligence." Chen Hang said this with a slightly complicated tone.

Huahua looked up at him inexplicably, then quickly lowered her head before they noticed her abnormality and continued playing with her fingers.

Yiqing asked curiously, "How do you say that?"

"He likes to hide behind other zombies and play dirty tricks. If he sees that the situation is not right, he will evacuate early and hide."

With the emergence, increase in number and strength of people with special powers, the abilities and levels of zombies are also constantly improving.

This is nothing.

But if the stronger zombies gain intelligence, it will be bad news for all the survivors now.

"You are going tomorrow, is it because you want to go, or because you promised two days ago and don't want to break the promise?" Yiqing didn't ask whether this would be dangerous, because the end of the world is full of crises. All she cared about was Chen Hang's own choice.

"Both reasons. Fighting is the best way to improve your abilities, and such a powerful zombie is a rare opportunity to practice. I don't want to miss it."

Chen Hang's tone was calm, but his dark eyes were filled with a desire to become stronger.

Yiqing saw his determination and said, "Then I wish us all the best tomorrow."

"It will definitely go well."

……

The next day.

Chen Hang still went out very early.

Because Huahua needed to match her clothes, Yiqing spent some time persuading her to be more low-key and not dress so conspicuously for the time being.

When they arrived at the lord's residence, the guy standing guard at the door was the same guy from yesterday. He had a good memory. When he saw Yiqing, he took the initiative to speak without waiting for her to ask: "Are you here to see the lord again?"

Yiqing nodded, "Is he here today?"

The sentry scratched his head and said, "What a coincidence! He went out again today."

When he heard this answer yesterday, Yiqing turned around and left.

But she had already made two wasted trips, and she finally couldn't help asking, "Is the Lord so busy every day?"

The young man was helpless, "The base has too many things to worry about, and the lord is usually very busy."

Yiqing asked again: "Can you tell me when he will be back, or where should I go to find him?"

Seeing how persistent she was, the young man couldn't help but feel a little more suspicious.

"What exactly do you want to do with the lord?" He asked instead of answering, and there was a bit more inquiry in his eyes when he looked at Yiqing.

"I have something urgent to ask the Lord for help."

"what's up?"

"It's not convenient to tell you."

"..." The young man said patiently, "We have someone in charge of daily chores. If you don't tell me what problem you've encountered, how can I tell you who to ask for help?"

“No one else can solve it.”

"The lord is very busy, so don't disturb him unless necessary."

"This is urgent."

Everyone spoke up and no one was willing to give in.

The two were in a stalemate for a while, and Huahua suddenly joined the battle.

She hugged the guard's legs and looked at him with pitiful eyes.

"Brother, please tell us, we really have something urgent to do."

"Brother, we have come here twice, and Huahua's legs are sore."

"Brother, you are the best~"

"Brother, please, please~"

The little girl kept acting like a spoiled brat, and the young man couldn't resist, so he compromised, "The lord went to the West District today to check on the reclamation and planting of wasteland. If you want to see him, you may still be able to find him in the West District now."

Yiqing quickly thanked him, "Thank you very much."

Huahua also smiled, "Brother, you are really a super good person!"

The young man looked at her well-behaved appearance and subconsciously wanted to reach out and touch her head.

But when the little girl saw Yiqing turn around and walk towards the west district, she hurriedly followed.

The young man's hand fell into nothingness, but his eyes never left Huahua.

"It would be great if my sister hadn't been scratched by the zombies." He murmured in a low voice. Through the small figure, he seemed to see another little girl who always loved to jump around. "She used to like to call me brother and act like a spoiled child in front of me."

His voice was blown away by the wind and dissipated into the air.

His sadness blended into the crowd and was not special in this era.

……

When Yiqing arrived at the West District, the lord was pointing at the wastelands and issuing tasks.

His appearance was not as handsome as Yiqing had previously guessed, but rather very ordinary.

But he was tall and had a strong aura, and whenever he stood there he gave off an air of majesty without even showing any anger.

Suddenly, he seemed to notice Yiqing's gaze and turned around to look.

That sharp gaze didn't cause any reaction in Yiqing and Huahua, but it frightened a person walking by so much that his legs went limp.

When the lord saw that the people staring at him were just a young woman and a child, he wanted to look away. But when he saw how calmly they reacted and even when they looked at him, they did not avoid his gaze, he became interested.

He raised his hand and told the wasteland manager who was answering the question to shut up tactfully.

Then he strode towards Yiqing and the others.

Seeing them standing there, their eyes still on him, he knew they were looking for him, and his steps became steadier.

"Is there anything I can do for you?" After getting closer, he saw Yiqing's appearance clearly and a faint smile naturally appeared on his face. He didn't look as unattainable as before.

Yiqing said sincerely, "Lord, I have something important to tell you. Can I have a moment to talk with you?"

The lord readily agreed, "Of course."

The two psychics following him looked at Yiqing with caution and vigilance, "Lord, do you want us to verify her identity first?"

The lord chuckled and shook his head, "It's okay, it should be just a weak woman who wants to seek help."

Yiqing guessed that he might have misunderstood something, but did not rush to explain.

After he came to the side with her, Yiqing first asked him a few questions about his views on evil people and what he thought about the dark events in the end times.

The lord answered all the questions one by one, looking dignified and patient, but Yiqing noticed a hint of displeasure in his eyes.

Are you feeling unhappy because you are being questioned by the people below you as a superior?

understand.

Besides, every one of his answers was satisfying. Although it was still debatable whether these words came from the heart, Yiqing thought for a moment and decided to get to the point. "My Lord, have you ever heard of the 'First Courtyard' base?"

The lord suddenly raised his eyes and looked over. The kindness on the surface shattered in an instant, and Yiqing saw the same sharp gaze again.

"Of course I have heard of it. Why do you mention it?"

Facing those inquiring eyes, Yiqing's face was as calm as water, not revealing any emotion.

She continued to ask: "Does the Lord know the specific situation inside?"

"What on earth are you going to say?"

"The First Institute has been arresting innocent people at will and conducting illegal human experiments. I would like to ask the Lord for help and send people to stop the evil deeds of the First Institute and rescue the innocent people inside. In order to prevent the First Institute from continuing to be stubborn, please teach them a lesson." Yiqing expressed his request in a neither humble nor arrogant manner.

The lord's eyes deepened, and after a long while he uttered, "Are you telling the truth?"

Her voice was firm, "It's absolutely true."

"When the end of the world comes, the surviving compatriots should work together to overcome the difficulties. How can they do such a thing of killing each other!" The lord was heartbroken. "If the First House is really doing such a conscienceless thing, I really can't just stand by and watch."

After he finished speaking righteously, he changed the subject and said, "But where did you get this news?"

Yiqing had expected him to ask this question, "I escaped from there."
