My Cherry Will Explode in the Apocalypse

Chapter 70 – Wancheng base

Translator: Jostena

Editor: Dragon

Many survivors cried out and ran to the thunder ability team, seeking shelter. However, the sound of gunfire only attracted more zombies. They could see shadows shaking while approaching from afar.

Someone went to his car in a hurry, locked the door, and got under the seat to try to avoid the zombies.

The zombies who had come near the motorcade roared hungrily in their throats, smelling the smell of food in the air, beating their windows excitedly, and chasing people.

“Ah ah…” The window of a car was broken by a zombie, and the people inside were screaming as they were dragged out of the car, biting their flesh and blood wantonly.

Some people were killed by the zombies with a bite on the neck, blood splashing everywhere. The strong scent of blood quickly spread across.

There were too many cars, too many people running around and shouting. It was too hard for Su Ruizhe to aim and shoot. They were afraid of hurting the survivors by strafing with machine guns. They couldn't help but rush out to fight at close range.

However, those of the thunder power team jumped into the car and continued shooting at the approaching zombies while revving the car. They were ready to run away like this?!

What about the promised ability user team? Why did you just shoot twice and run away? Why not use your abilities?

How could they have known that although the thunder ability user team was called an ability user team, only the team leader and the deputy team leader had abilities. Although there is a lot of oil and water in the task of collecting materials at the gate of the base, it also carried a certain degree of danger, so it was often only those ordinary fighters who were sent out. Anyway, they had guns. Scattered zombies could be solved easily. If it was really not good and turned out to be a big deal, run.

Now, these ordinary fighters believed they couldn't beat the zombies. So, they moved to go ahead and rescue the soldiers. Then, they all could go back to clean up the zombies. As for the survivors… What about them?

The survivors had simply handed in the materials, they were allowed to get on their cars. Those who didn’t have any materials also ran to Wancheng base following the back of the cars.

By this time, Su Ruizhe and his team had already begun fighting. Zhan Yun directly used his gravity ability to press one zombie on the ground with ten times the pressure, and increased the pressure to explode the heads of those zombies.

It was a level 2 power. Its power couldn't be the same as that of level 1.

Zheng Jiahe also has great strength. He felt that the car was in the way. He directly kicked it away with his feet. He smashed the heads of zombies with his left hand holding the nut shield provided by Su Ruizhe and his right hand holding his favorite golf club.

Seeing that Cheng Qi and Cheng Jiao had no place to get involved here, they simply ran outside to meet the zombies attracted by the gunfire. Wind and electricity kept flying about for a while, it was almost like crossing into science fiction movies.

Only four people's strength solved a crisis that could have caused huge casualties.

Guan Hong had known the team’s strength for a long time, and the impact was ok, but Dr. Yang and his two assistants were shocked.

At the beginning of the end of the world, Dr. Yang, as a scientific research talent, was from the first batch of people rescued by the army from the Academy of Science, and since then, he had been tightly protected in the base. This was the first time he saw such a tragic scene, even his face became white with fear.

Dr. Yang could never have imagined that Zhan Yun’s team was so powerful!

He only knew that one of them had a special ability to weaponize plants, but the new bullets developed by their research center were not bad, so he didn’t think the team was special.

He thought it would be enough to bring the only plant ability user to this mission. How could he bring the whole team? He didn’t see them on the road again, so he felt their team was useless.

Now, he was completely shocked…

By the time the rescuers of Wancheng base left the city to come out, the zombies had already been completely solved.

“You’re extraordinary. Which base are you from? I’m Wang Xurong, the leader of the Thunder ability team.” As soon as the leaders saw Guan Hong and his team in their uniforms, they knew that they must have come from other survivors’ bases to learn soilless cultivation techniques. They immediately talked with them with a smile.

“We are from the South Base. We were invited to your base to learn new technologies. I am Guan Hong, the leader in charge of this task.”

“It turned out to be the team’s captain, sorry I didn't recognize you.” Wang Xurong said with a smile, “Welcome to Wancheng base.”

By now, Zheng Jiahe had removed the vehicles in front of them, clearing the road, and all the survivors went back to their cars, following Wang Xurong’s motorcade. They crossed Ying Tianmen bridge, and reached the gate of Wancheng base.

However, just as they were going to go through the formalities for entering the city, Wang Xurong suddenly spoke, “You should know that our base charges for entering the city…”

“We’re just here to learn. Do we have to hand it in?” Guan Hong frowned slightly. Many of them had come here. If they had to pay three catties of grain for one person, they would not be able to take it out at all.

“Let’s each of us give a jin of grain. After all, we are guests.”

Guan Hong didn’t want to quarrel with Wancheng base. In case of any trouble, the task would be affected. Considering that so many of them were going to Wancheng base to study and live there for a period of time, the senior management of the base had also prepared some materials for them. If they took them out, they could pay the city fees.

He just didn’t know if there would be more follow-up expenses, after all, they still had to solve accommodation issues for so many people

Seeing Guan Hong’s dilemma, Zhan Yun suddenly asked, “What else do you take in addition to food?”

“Everything, as long as it works.” Wang Xurong continued to smile.

Zhan Yun thought and asked, “Do you collect water?”

“Water?” Wang Xurong slightly raised his eyebrows and said, “Ordinary drinking water is not needed. There are many water system ability users in our base, but wine and drinks are okay.”

Zhan Yun nodded slightly, “What about fruits and vegetables?”

Even if they had mastered soilless cultivation techniques, they would not be able to grow things so quickly, right?

When Wang Xurong heard this, his eyes brightened, “Of course.”

Indeed, as Zhan Yun thought, although the technology of soilless cultivation had been developed in Wancheng base, it was still in the stage of seedling cultivation, and it would take two to three months for the real harvest. Although the base also had wood talents that could produce some fruits and vegetables, the number was limited after all. The population in the base was too large and there were too few produce for people to eat.

"Is it that its unnecessary for ability users to pay?"

“Yes.”

Zhan Yun winked at Guan Hong, who immediately said to the two wood talents in the team, “Lao Yuan, Xiao Jiang, please.”

“No trouble, no trouble.” Lao Yuan and Xiao Jiang went to one side, took out several seeds from the collection, buried them in the ground, poured some water on them, and then used their ability to grow them.

With the constant use of the wood ability, Lao Yuan planted several large watermelons and Xiao Jiang planted small tomatoes. Now, everyone knew that there were many sweet and watery fruits being produced by the ability users. These two kinds of fruits produced at the scene immediately made Wang Xurong unable to move his eyes.

“Is that enough?”

Although the watermelons planted by Lao Yuan were only 5-10 Jin, and Xiaojiang’s Tomato didn't add up to much, it was better because of its rarity., It was worth a lot of food. Thus, it was just enough because the ability users didn't need to pay for materials.

“You have so many ability users?” When Wang Xurong heard the figures from Guan Hong, he couldn’t help but raise his eyebrows again. “Aren’t you kidding me? When you register, you need to verify the ability. “

In his opinion, there were less than 100 people in Guan Hong’s team. How could there be more than 20 ability users?

“I’m not kidding, of course. You will know when you register later.”

The person who paid the materials could directly enter the base after a simple registration in the registration office, and the rest of them will go to the small room next to the registration office for verification.

Of course, Guan Hong was not joking. There were already several ability users in his team. In addition, Zhan Yun and his whole team were all ability users. The total was more than 20.

The registry gave each of them a red round badge to fasten on their chest. As long as you wore this badge, you could enjoy a lot of convenience.

But their cars were not allowed to be driven in. They could only park their cars in the parking lot outside the base, and then carry their backpacks into Wancheng base.

Wancheng base looked larger and had more people than the southern base, but there were no solar power generators. Many places were still being illuminated by candles and torches.

Not long after they had just walked in, many ragged people gathered around to ask if they wanted someone to lead the way. Some were males, some were females, some were old and some were young. Their eyes were all fixed on their backpacks.

“Sir, I know all the places here, just a pack of biscuits!” A short man shouted.

“Sir, I’m also familiar with this place. Only half a pack of biscuits is enough!” A thin woman came up.

“Sir, all I need is a biscuit … Just one bite… ” Said the child, looking up with her dirty little face.

Wancheng base was not as organized as the southern base, and no one was responsible for guiding them, so there were these people for specially guiding the newcomers.

Newcomers needed to find a place to settle down as soon as possible. Following the guides could save a lot of trouble, and their fees were cheap, so the business is okay.

Su Ruizhe was the softest towards children. Seeing that the dirty little girl was pushed around by the crowd, he raised his compassion. “Then, you are the one.”

The author has something to say:

[Little Theater On The Street]

Zhan Xiaoyun: I’ve been in the base for a long time. Let’s go for a walk. Remember to keep a low profile!

Crowd: We are the weak melon seed eaters!

True. Melon seed eaters: Ah, there are zombies!

Zhan Xiaoyun: Stay low key! Don’t go too far…

Thunder team: Calm down! We’ll get rid of them!

True. Melon seed eater A: Ah ~ ~ thunder team! Quick! Give way! Red carpet! Line up! Shout out our slogan!

True. Melon seed eater B: Ah ~ ~ it’s the real person! So handsome! It’s going to blind me!

True. Melon seed eater C: Ah ~ ~ did the captain take a look at me? No, I’m going to faint happily! Please don’t let me wake up, let me indulge in the beauty of the captain can’t extricate myself!

Zheng Jiahe: Boss! Someone even pretends to be better than you… emm, but also popular, more like Mary Su standard!

Zhan Xiaoyun raises his eyebrows: Ah. Compare me with them. How many scenes do you think Stupid author will give them?

Zheng Jiahe: Σ (゜ロ゜) I dare not say anything, boss, please let it go!

[A Small Wooden Theater]

Zheng Jiahe: These people are not calm. At the beginning, Wu Jing did not yell.

Wu Jing: I couldn't be calm without getting used to it.

Zhan Yun: Look at the team of ability users. They're all so weak. It’s not as good as Xiao zhe!

Su Ruizhe: I couldn’t cheat without me being born again.

Wow, that team didn’t even get a full chapter and only had a small scene… That shows you how important they are XD

It’s sad tho to think that people suffer like that in the base… I mean the other base at least finds jobs for people and only doesn’t help those who don’t actually want to work hard but this reminds me of what the apocalypse is really like T^T

Also thank you so much guys for those comments wishing me well on my exams!!

When they mentioned how it was like sci-fi movies:

Dragon: Lol. Isn’t this book sci-fi with zombies and whatnot? This is kind of a stupid statement

Jostena: Yea but I guess it’s still early in the apocalypse so everyone is still weak unlike our MC’s group

When that guy asked them for material when they wanted to enter:

Jostena: Bitch please! They helped your useless ass clean up those zombies that you couldn’t even handle! That should be enough compensation!

Dragon: I know! They should tie this little shit up in front of a group of zombies, and save him only when he promises payment.

When they mentioned wine:

Dragon: End of world and drunkards still roam about…

Jostena: They’re always there… as well as smokers

When SRZ said ‘you are the one’ at the end:

Dragon: Can we replace it with – I choose you!

(Charizard)

Jostena: No, but I’ll add this as a comment XD
