Rebirth: Leading Families to Survive in the Apocalypse novel Chapter 64

Chapter 64: Chapter 64 Everyone’s Whereabouts

“Liao Yifan”

Upon hearing Lu Hao’s voice coming from the phone, Liao Yifan hurried to pick up the phone that Xue Wanyi had tossed aside, “Captain Lu, what are your orders?”

“You should have already awakened to the Power Element Special Ability; your strength now is far greater than before. However, you must also be careful not to get scratched or bitten by the zombies outside. Protect Guo Yang, understand?”

“Yes, Captain Lu. Rest assured, I promise to complete the mission!” Liao Yifan solemnly replied into the phone.

Meanwhile, Xue Wanyi was inwardly grumbling that it was less about protection; Guo Yang was likely already beaten to a pulp by her.

Liao Yifan waited for Lu Hao to hang up first before she ended the call, then it occurred to her that actually, she didn’t necessarily have to follow Lu Hao’s orders, did she?

Looking at Guo Yang, who was lying there barely breathing because of her, along with an anxious Xue Wanyi, she felt a pang of guilt.

Forget it, although one of these guys was annoying and the other a suspect, they had saved her life after all.

If it wasn’t for Guo Yang calling her, she had planned to go to the gym after work. Had she fainted with a fever in the gym under those circumstances, the outcome was hard to imagine.

“At least untie the ropes from him,” Liao Yifan said, exasperated.

“Oh right, I forgot. I’ll go find some scissors.”

When Xue Wanyi had tied up the two of them, he had used many strips of cloth besides the rope because it wasn’t long enough, so it was difficult to untie them one by one. Therefore, he planned to use scissors to cut them off directly.

Getting impatient, Liao Yifan walked over and said, “Never mind, I’ll do it.”

With just a light tug from Liao Yifan, a thick rope was easily snapped, and she even tore some of the cloths with just one hand…

Xue Wanyi remembered what Lu Hao had said about her awakening to the Power Element Special Ability, and he couldn’t help but mentally light a candle for Guo Yang. Brother, you’ve fallen for this kind of woman; cherish every moment you’re alive!

After Lu Hao hung up the phone, he remembered what Su Jin had said about how cell phones could still be used to make calls in the first few days of the Apocalypse, but after several days even calls would be impossible. So, he decided to check on several of his team members.

After several calls, only Guan Shouzhong didn’t pick up. It wasn’t clear whether he had encountered misfortune or was awakening his Special Ability.

“If you have something to say, just say it. Don’t hesitate,” Lu Hao’s voice came through the phone.

Startled, Yin Chengtian finally spoke his mind.

He wanted to join Lu Hao with Shi Jin, as they were both bachelors, and unlike Tian Yongyi and the others who could drive home, the two didn’t have that option. Therefore, staying with Lu Hao seemed the safest bet for now.

Lu Hao didn’t immediately agree; he just told them to wait for news. Remembering Guo Yang and Xue Wanyi, he decided to discuss with his family about unifying all these people together. It wasn’t only safer, but most importantly, they were people he could trust.

Su Jin was in favor because she knew that they couldn’t stay here forever. Before long, the entire city would become a ghost town, with not only zombies but also zombie animals, mutant animals, and even mutated plants…

Even the most powerful Special Ability Users would have to live within a secure base, and the teams within the base were the reliance for a successful survival. They didn’t have enough people to support a full team yet, so expanding the team was inevitable.

Rather than including many people whose backgrounds they didn’t know, it was better to bring in some reliable individuals. Now that one of Lu Hao’s team members had initiated the idea, it was the best of both worlds.

The family expressed their agreement one after another, especially Lin Cheng and his son. After seeing the young man from Old Xiao’s House upstairs, they realized how changed people were in the Apocalypse.

The people Lu Hao led were surely not bad.
