Chapter 261 Stealing a Tree?
Chapter 261 Stealing a Tree?
After Zhou Yang and the other two finished talking with Gu Tianqi and returned, they called together all the members of the Qianlong Squad and Chi Feng and his three companions.
First, let me remind everyone about the zombie siege tomorrow so that everyone can be mentally prepared. Second, let's make some personnel arrangements in advance to avoid chaos tomorrow.
After everyone had arrived, Yan Fei said first, "The zombies will likely arrive tomorrow morning. At that time, the rest of us who are level 5 or above will go out to help defend the city. Zhiyi, you will lead the team to stay at home with Aunt Yu Jing and the others. Chai Jin, you will also stay and help. Your main task is to defend the city and defend against attacks from the aerial zombies."
While defending the city is important, defending your home is equally important.
Moreover, Yu Jing and the others are all ordinary people, and it is too dangerous for them to go outside. It is better for them to stay at home. However, given that there will still be zombie air raids, it is natural to leave a few people at home who can keep things in order.
Now, even Qingtang has advanced to level 5 thanks to the crystal core she got from Zhang Wan, so guarding the house with Xu Zhiyi is no problem at all.
As for Chai Jin... well, the main thing is to not give him a chance to be caught by Zhang Wan before Zhang Wan resolves the situation.
"Row!"
Xu Zhiyi and Xu Qingtang nodded simultaneously after hearing the arrangement, having no objection whatsoever.
Chai Jin was the only one left at level 5, so he was naturally very unwilling. However, his request to fight was rejected by Zhou Yang and the others, so he had no choice but to obey the organization's arrangements.
After assigning the personnel, seeing that no one else had any objections, and even Chi Feng and the others agreed, Shen Zechuan made the final decision.
"Alright, that's all. Everyone should get some rest tonight and conserve your energy so we can fight a tough battle tomorrow!"
The internal meeting had just ended and everyone was about to leave when suddenly there was a knock on the door.
Zhou Yang and the others thought that Gu Tianqi had sent someone to find them, so they hurriedly went out.
However, when they opened the door, they found Li Mei and Wang Yang inside.
"Why are you here?"
Li Mei smiled a little shyly: "We heard that the zombie army might arrive tomorrow, so we came to inquire about the city defense tomorrow, and if possible, we would like to join you."
Zhou Yang and the others immediately understood what the other party meant.
Li Mei and Wang Yang's small team had only been at the base for a few days. To be honest, they were unfamiliar with the place and the people. There were also a few ordinary people and people with low-level superpowers in the team. They would be at a disadvantage in the city defense battle. At this time, it was very important to find a familiar and powerful ally.
And the Hidden Dragon Squad is naturally the best choice.
Li Mei herself is a level 5 ability user, and her two vice leaders and Wang Yang and several others are currently at the peak of level 4, so their overall strength is quite good.
So after discussing it, Zhou Yang and the others agreed.
However, Shen Zechuan added a reminder: "You need to obey our orders and absolutely cannot desert your posts."
Li Mei had no objection to this: "Of course!"
Shen Zechuan thought for a moment and said, "Then you two will join us in defending the city tomorrow. Wang Yang, you will mainly follow me tomorrow. As for the rest of you, stay at the villa to guard the house and defend against possible attacks from underground and the air."
Although Wang Yang is only at the peak of level 4, he has lightning-type abilities. If his abilities are over-consumed and he cannot replenish the lightning grid above the base in time, Wang Yang can help hold out for a while.
"Okay!" Li Mei and Wang Yang nodded at the same time.
After the group finished discussing their points, they dispersed.
After dinner, everyone went to rest early.
Zhou Yang originally planned to go back to sleep, but Chi Feng stood mysteriously in the corridor and waved to him, beckoning him over. He also gave Shen Zechuan, who was following behind Zhou Yang, a "go away" gesture, clearly not wanting Shen Zechuan to hear.
Unfortunately, Zhou Yang had no choice but to go alone.
As Zhou Yang approached, Chi Feng immediately turned his head and whispered in Zhou Yang's ear in a voice softer than a mosquito's buzz, "How about we go up the mountain behind and steal some trees?"
"???"
Zhou Yang didn't understand for a moment and stared at Chi Feng dumbfounded.
What does that mean? Go to Baiji Mountain behind it...to steal trees?
"Why are you stealing trees...?"
Chi Feng rolled his eyes at Zhou Yang: "Of course it's for defending the city! Are you stupid for leaving such a large mountain unused? Mutant trees are incredibly useful for fighting zombies!"
“I know mutated plants are effective against zombies, but they’re mutated plants, they’re intelligent! You’re going to steal them like this?” Zhou Yang said, rubbing his temples. “And you want them to help us guard the city? Are you sure you’re not going to dig them up to eat people?”
“I have plant-based abilities, so I can communicate with them. And you also have tamed mutated plants, so you can send your mutated plants to communicate with other mutated plants. As long as the benefits are right, it’s not impossible.”
Zhou Yang thought it made some sense, but still hesitated: "Will communication be useful? I don't think the mutated plants in the mountains are easy to fool, especially the powerful ones..."
"I don't know either, but why don't we give it a try and find out?" Chi Feng said, then raised an eyebrow at Zhou Yang: "Besides, don't you have a rare and precious mutated plant or animal?! If we can't communicate with it, we'll just kidnap it."
At the end, Chi Feng seemed to remember something and added, "Oh right, some of my mutated plants have been bothering me with that thing of yours for a long time. They all want it. After you've lured away all those trees and stuff, could you give me some too?"
"..." Zhou Yang was silent for a moment, and after a long while, he nodded resignedly, "Alright."
He didn't ask Chi Feng why he discovered such a stupid question. After all, the other party had mutated plants and animals. It was normal for him to notice some clues when he took out spring water to feed the peas and the tiger cubs. He would have found it strange if Chi Feng had been completely oblivious.
However, Chi Feng's idea of using spring water to lure them is worth a try.
If we can really bring back a bunch of mutated plants, then the zombie siege will be much easier.
After thinking it over, Zhou Yang scratched his head again and said, "Then... shall we give it a try?"
Upon hearing Zhou Yang's agreement, Chi Feng immediately clapped his hands together and was about to pull Zhou Yang away: "Let's go, let's go now! We'll bring back a tree that can circle the base! That way I can retire and live a peaceful life!"
Upon hearing this, Zhou Yang's lips twitched, utterly speechless. So, your eagerness to steal trees isn't to protect the base, but rather so you can retire and live a life of leisure?
However, before Zhou Yang could speak, Shen Zechuan, who had been watching from a distance, became displeased.
"Chi Feng, where are you trying to take my wife?"
Not only can't he listen to her, but now he's trying to take his wife away?
Is there any more heavenly justice?
