Phoenix Destroyer
117. Capitals

The defensive wall of the Capital base had a height of at least over ten meters. Some large firearms such as cannon launchers were embedded along the wall. Electric nets were installed on top of the walls to block the zombie birds. Spell paper is also attached in some places to prevent the unknown. Overall, the concrete wall looks more magnificent and luxurious than most residents in it.

The arrival of a convoy of vehicles immediately attracted the attention of people who were busy at the main gate.

The soldier guarding the gate approached the leading car and greeted. After a while he came back and gave a cue to open the special gate. The driver thanked me and hurried away.

One of the people in the gate queue asked his friend, "Who is that? I seem to remember we don't have such a big team."

The friend glanced at him calmly. "Looking at the emblems on the body of the car, it looks like they're from the Guardian Base."

That person had a surprised expression on his face. "Why are they here?"

"Did you remember that there are tier 6 spiritual zombies in the next town? The base seemed to be inviting other bases to act together to eradicate those spiritual zombies."

"ah! That's why I've seen so many unfamiliar faces lately."

"Pulse. I heard South Base just arrived yesterday, Mr. Ren also came with them. Let's see if we have a chance to meet and ask for a prophecy."

"Yes!"

The queue in front of the gate moved forward stopping their conversation. The two did not continue the conversation and returned to line up.

The car convoy stopped at the disinfectant spraying site. Any car entering or returning from the outside should be sprayed with disinfectant so that no virus is accidentally carried away and enters the base.

Xuan Ming jumped out of the car and spoke a few words to the janitor. Everyone got out of the car and was quarantined according to the base procedure.

Four hours passed in an instant, the convoy of cars was running smoothly under the guidance of security officers. They stopped at the entrance of a government building. To report arrival.

While Xuan Ming entered with the others, they waited in the car. It didn't take long, an acquaintance came out of the building and approached them. It was Feng Mo.

"Master Feng, long time no see."

"Mr Ren, hello."

It was a man beside the Ancestor of the hidden school. Some time ago when they went to Guardian Base representing South Base to buy medicine, they told of their experience when the end of the world came for the first time. Initially they hesitated when they accepted Feng Mo and Meng Shize's invitation so they procrastinated over time, just when they finally decided to go down the mountain and contact the number left behind by Feng Mo, just as they had finally decided to go down the mountain, the end of the world comes forcing them to act to save the lives of many.

They don't know if they should be happy or sad. Glad that they actually decided to go down the mountain that day, or sad because of the disaster that destroyed mankind. But they could not think for long, because their martial artists had to protect many people.

On the way to form South Base, their school of no more than twenty parents had to take care of over a hundred survivors. The looting, robbery, betrayal, and quarrels among the survivors left them unable to do anything about it. The good they give away for free cannot be compared to the greed of some people.

If not for a group of people who still think alike to them, their parents might have been cornered by their selfish ideologies.

As a descendant of martial artists, Mr. Ren could not blame the selfish humans who sought to protect himself, but he also could not allow other ordinary humans to become victims of their greed. He was not a compassionate Buddha, he was just a slightly lucky human being.

After many twists along the way, with a nod from the Ancestors, their parents finally agreed to teach their school's martial arts heritage to certain people. Then the emergence of other martial arts heritage places made them even determined to spread martial arts to all corners of the country.

Because only by having strength in your own hands will you be able to survive at the end of this world.

"Did the Guardian Base's convoy just arrive?"

Feng Mo nodded.

"Then I won't disturb your rest. I'll come to your place after a while."

"okay."

"See you later."

"See you."

Mr. Ren waved his hand and returned to where his entourage was waiting.

Feng Mo stared at their departure a little longer before turning his face away.

"Sister Feng, didn't you promise to take us around?" Ten-year-old little Shi Jiyi spoke from next door.

Feng Mo rubbed Shi Jiyi's head slowly. "of course. They can visit at any time, but we'll go shopping according to our agreement."

"Yes!" Little head Shi Jiyi nodded. He had long been curious about other bases besides the Guardian Base. This was truly the first time he had seen the outside world after the apocalypse had come.

"I also want to go around to see if I can meet an acquaintance." Lin Su moved to the Capital since the beginning of his actor career, it could be said that he had grown up in the Capital.

"I'm coming with you." Tang Mo did not want to miss.

"okay."

Xuan Ming and the others came out not long after and after that their entourage drove to the house that General Xuan had allocated earlier.

The next day as Xuan Ming went to visit his parents, Feng Mo brought some enthusiastic people to tour the Capital Base. Guided by Comrade Mu, a subordinate of General Xuan, their entourage drove towards the important places in the Capital.

The capital after the end of the world no longer has buildings as high as tens of floors, or houses covering hundreds of square meters. All inches of land in the Capital were used to the fullest extent possible to maintain the survival of the common people. Security guards were patrolling at all times to prevent unrest. Employment offices. Grocery shops and cafeterias. All of that was to prevent ordinary humans from having nowhere to survive.

In addition, Feng Mo's entourage also visited the martial arts association's office and the ability association's office. There was also an office that specialized in issuing tasks to the people who formed the mercenary team. There is an arena ring between the two associations that is usually used to fight between enemies or opponents, or just to exchange skills. In this Capital, powerful and mighty masters were as numerous as chinese cabbages, not to mention people who deliberately did not show their abilities.

"Master Feng, there's a people's market over here, do you want to go down and take a look?"

Feng Mo nodded. "Let's see."

After parking the car, everyone descended to the ground. "Come, you can go alone, I won't stand in your way." Feng Mo chased everyone away and only left Shi Jiyi and Comrade Mu by his side.

"I'll look for you after I'm satisfied to look around." Lin Su pulled Tang Mo to form a two-man group.

"Pulse. Don't make trouble."

"Yes." Yeah."

After everyone left, Feng Mo took Shi Jiyi's hand and walked in the other direction. Comrade Mu just followed behind.

"If there's anything you want, just say it."

"Ms." Shi Jiyi nodded her head.

The people's market is actually just a term. Some ordinary people or people with the ability do not want to sell their food to the government or large shops, so they set up small stalls on the side of the road. After that, to put the atmosphere in order, the government allocated a place for the traders to sell their loot.

"Come on! Comeing! The skin of a level 3 mutant tiger to make protective clothing!"

"Mutant wolf cubs to contract with! Only a tier 5 crystal core!"

"Sold mutant plant seeds! Guaranteed original!"

"Sir, do you want to take a look? The new clothes were distributed by the base!"

"Hey sir, this is a sword taken from the ruins of XXX."

The voices of the merchants peddling his wares were heard to be mutual.

What is sold in the public market varies greatly. Starting from items that are slightly valuable, to items that have been left behind. Like gold and silver jewelry. At the end of this world, where paper money had been left behind, items such as gold and silver were no longer useful. The currency in circulation had long since been replaced with a crystal core ejected from the zombie head.

There are some mobile phones that don't know if they still work. Antiques such as calligraphy and some cultural relics have lost their spirituality. Some knives, kitchen knives, hand-held knives, daggers, and samurai swords. There are also some flower pots. Fashionable clothes that do not match the doomsday and gambling stones. It was all neatly lined up along the way.

"Sister Feng, over there." Shi Jiyi pulled Feng Mo's hand and pointed at a stall.

"Oh? Is there anything you want there?"

Shi Jiyi shook her head, she spoke with a serious funny face. "I feel like there's something important to me there."

"Okay, let's see."

They approached a stall selling jewelry made of jade.

"Hey sir, is this all the stuff you have?" Feng Mo asked as he investigated all the jade jewelry neatly arranged on the table.

Not getting an answer, Feng Mo lifted his head from the jewelry. What he saw was the seller's dumbfounded expression.

"Old Man?"

"Ah? Uh? T-This is all I have." The old man replied with a bit of nervousness.

Feng Mo looked at the seller suspiciously, but he immediately turned his gaze to Shi Jiyi. "Xiaoshi, which one do you want?"

Shi Jiyi stared at the objects on the table with a solemn expression on the face of her baby. After some time, his brows furrowed down.

"Sister Feng, I didn't find it."

Feng Mo looked back at the seller. "Old man, don't you have any more stuff by your side?"

Shi Jiyi also followed staring at the old man on the other side.

It was a jade slab carved as a longevity card.

Feng Mo let out a disappointed face. Just as he was about to choose something else on the table, Shi Jiyi interrupted—

"I... I want it." Shi Jiyi blushed as she said so.

"It was the old man's private property. You can't take it if you want to."

The corner of Shi Jiyi's mouth decreased. His facial expression could not even be hidden. "I— "

"If you want it, I'll sell it to you." The old man hurriedly interrupted.

"Really?" Shi Jiyi looked at the seller with shining eyes.

"Yes! Yep!"

"How much?"

"I'll give it to you."

"No! I'll give you the crystal core."

"Then the first-rate crystal nucleus."

"I'll give you ten first-rate crystal nuclei."

"okay."

Feng Mo did not stop the transaction of the two. After all now jade was no more valuable than the crystal core. Moreover, it was only a first-rate crystal nucleus.

After replacing the crystal core with longevity jade, they went for another walk. No one noticed that the old man's gaze never escaped them until they disappeared around the corner.

"Are you still unhappy?" Seeing Shi Jiyi's wrinkled face, Feng Mo couldn't help but ask.

"Sister Feng, I feel like there's still something important to me there."

Feng Mo pondered for a moment. "Let's find that guy next time, maybe he'll sell it to us again. Okay?"

"Ms."

After quite a look around, they walked back to where the car was parked. But they were stopped in the middle of the road because a small crowd was blocking the way.

"What's going on?"

"Young Master Fei's little love is looking for another quarrel, this time he's attracting pedestrians to quarrel!"

"Hey this pedestrian is not ordinary, he used to be a great actor!"

"Isn't 'she' also an actress before? Looks like they're still acquaintances!"

"Where's the security team? Shouldn't we fight in the city?"

"Hey, are you an outsider? You might not know, Young Master Fei has his own person on the security team! Maybe the security team will show up later when the actor is already dying!"

"How did this happen?"

"You'll find out later, it's happened a lot."

The corner of Feng Mo's mouth twitched hearing the babbling of the people in the crowd. He didn't know who was at odds, but he probably knew who was unlucky. Because since then his eyes twitched because of a bad feeling.

"Comrade Mu, can you break through to the front? Looks like our friend's in trouble."

"Ah? Did ya? Just a minute."

Lin Su felt that he was unlucky, among all the people he wanted to see in the Capital, he met someone who was very annoying.

"If you don't compensate me today, I won't let you go!"

On the other hand is a beautiful woman. He had two guards protecting him. Lin Su was only with Tang Mo at this moment. It just so happened that Comrade Mu was following Feng Mo and had yet to return.

"Xie Yang, don't go too far. It's just a piece of clothing, you make a big deal like this."

Xie Yang snorted in disdain. "Lin Su! Don't think that the problem between the two of us is just trivial. Even if the end of the world has come, I will never let you live well! Today I finally met you, I won't let you go!"

Lin Su frowned annoyedly. He had not expected that Xie Yang would take this opportunity to take revenge.

Their relationship was not good from the beginning. The first time they met, it was because they were basically inside the same entertainment company. There should have been no dispute over resources between the actor and actress, but Lin Su had accidentally learned that Xie Yang was seducing a director who had a family.

The young Lin Su subtly reminded Xie Yang that the director was a little troubled so he would not get entangled with the director. But Xie Yang did not heed his warning and kept in touch.

Shortly thereafter, the director was exposed to prostitution and drugs cases so everyone in close contact with him was called by the police. Xie Yang was no exception, even his intimate relationship with the director was heard by the director's legitimate wife, so Xie Yang was instantly branded as a third person.

It was fortunate that Xie Yang did not know anything about the director's actions so he was immediately released. But then for some reason whenever Xie Yang was hit by trouble, Lin Su was always close to where he was. So Xie Yang inevitably thought that all the misfortune was due to Lin Su doing it.

Then Lin Su's contract with the company ended and he jumped into another entertainment company. Misfortune Xie Yang also ended. Xie Yang was bluffing his teeth, old grudges piled up so that it almost became hatred. Two unrelated people have been at odds for years.

After the end of the world arrived, Xie Yang thought that Lin Su might have already become a zombie in which corner and laughed out loud. But today he saw Lin Su, still neatly dressed and clean-tempered, just like the time before the end of the world came. Xie Yang did not want to, so he planned to touch the porcelain. It just so happened that Young Master Fei was being nice lately.

"Come, destroy him! Destroy him until he is out of shape!"

Lin Su frowned.

Two of Xie Yang's bodyguards took an attacking stance. One of them clenched a fist and sent a burst of flames towards Lin Su.

"Let's!"

The crowd cried out in fear, not expecting that they would fight using ability. They automatically ran away from the center of the battle.

"Stop!"

Comrade Mu's voice was blocked by the cries of the masses. He was also surprised by the courage of the people who made trouble.

Lin Su calmly spread out his hands holding back the burst of flames.

"Huh?" The man was shocked that his attack was successfully arrested. It seems like other people have abilities as well.

As soon as the burst of flames stopped attacking, the smoke blocking the view slowly disappeared, it was seen that Lin Su's figure was still standing firmly in his place.

"No way!" Xie Yang shouted hysterically. Unwilling to accept that Lin Su was actually an ability user.

Lin Su rubbed the dust that was not on his clothes and sneered.

"Stop! If you don't stop now, I'll call the army to imprison you! No one is allowed to use the abilities inside the base!" Comrade Mu finally managed to mediate the feud. He stood in front of Xie Yang's group and warned. "Miss Xie, you've broken the base rules repeatedly. This time the army won't let you go."

Xie Yang looked at the uniform of Comrade Mu's army and bully his teeth. "Lin Su, you survived this time. Just look at it later. Let's go."

The three men hurriedly fled before the army came, as long as they returned to the basecamp, no one would care.

Lin Su did not care about Xie Yang's nonsense, he turned his attention to Feng Mo and Shi Jiyi who were approaching. "Are you done shopping?"

"Yes. What's going on?"

"It's okay. Just some clowns jumping around."

"Let's go back first."

Lin Su nodded, there were still many people who witnessed their appearance. He doesn't want to be a spectacle for people.

An emergency meeting is held once all the courier representatives arrive. Xuan Ming came to the meeting place as a representative of the Guardian Base. At the doorstep, he met with Mr. Ren and the representatives from the Southern Base.

The two shook hands and exchanged greetings.

"Commander General Xuan, hello." Mr. Ren came to say hello.

"Mr Ren, hello." Since becoming the leader at the base, Xuan Ming had risen two ranks from Colonel to Lieutenant General.

The two exchanged information and whispered. Avoiding the views of others.

"The meeting is about to begin! Please enter the meeting room!" The voice of the announcement came from someone.

"We'll talk about it later."

"Yes." Yeah."

The two reached an agreement secretly and entered into the meeting room.
