Chapter 1427 - Leave or Stay

Dong Xinxin and her people looked at each other with surprise.


So that’s what this is about. I’ve never thought this way!
Dong Xinxin sighed with a look of surprise.
Dong Lijia couldn’t maintain the fake smile on his face. He widened his eyes and nodded expressionlessly,
No wonder Wenwen said those words to us when we first came here. She was probably worried that we wouldn’t be able to accept this.

Deng Chenfei knitted his brows slightly, staying silent.

Why are they living together with a group of zombies?
said Luo Yuanjun curiously,
And Lin Feng just said that without them, the base wouldn’t have been built up. He also said that those zombies have been guarding the base.


Look at the army here,
said Deng Chenfei,
The base has been existing for two years, but still, it only has thousands of soldiers. Don’t you feel that the number of soldiers here is a little too small? Think about it. They didn’t even have enough manpower when they built the base. They had to hire workers from Sea City Base.

The other three instantly fell into silence. They looked at Deng Chenfei quietly, because he was absolutely right.

Did Wenwen and the others always know about this? Are those really zombies? They look just like humans, except that they like wearing sunglasses and never talk. They behave exactly like normal humans!
said Dong Xinxin with confusion.

How could zombies like that even exist? Weren’t zombies supposed to attack any human being they saw? How come the zombies in the base behaved so much like humans?

Why didn’t you inform us about the fact that this base is a zombie base when we joined the base?
Some of the residents questioned Lin Feng and his people with anger.

Would you have stayed if we told you about it?
said Lin Feng blandly,
This information was confidential. If you were informed about it when you applied to join our base, do you think you could still leave safely with our secret?


Did you trick us into here to feed your zombies? No wonder the base was surrounded by zombies when we first came!
People were angry about the truth. Some of them even yelled at Lin Feng and his people wrathfully.

Exactly! No one would have come here if we knew this place is a zombie base! You kept the secret from us because you want to feed us to those zombies!


This is so disgusting! They guys are keeping zombies! Zombies are the deadly enemies of humans! I can’t believe you actually want us to share living space with them! Are you going against humanity?


I think they’re controlled by zombies. That’s why they tricked us in! They’re definitely going to feed us to those zombies!

As the residents were yelling angrily, some of the new soldiers burst into complaints as well. The senior soldiers glanced at each other with hesitation, staying silent.

Lin Feng and his people had foreseen these reactions. They looked at the people peacefully, and a while later, Lin Feng said with a loud voice,
I understand your worries. So this time, I’m going to give you choices.

His voice delivered the strong vibe of a level-seven superpower possessor, making everyone quiet down. On hearing him talk about choices, people were still angry, but also curious.

If you want to leave, I’ll let you walk out of this base safely. You can go anywhere you want. However, after you leave, you won’t be allowed to come back,
said Lin Feng.

Who’d want to come back to your zombie base! We’re not stupid!
Someone shouted sarcastically once Lin Feng finished talking.

Exactly!


Yeah!

Many agreed with that person.
Lin Feng smiled coldly, saying,
Alright, remember what you’ve said. The north gate is open now. You are free to leave. Our people will even escort you through the areas occupied by those underground creatures. You’ll leave safely.

Those people had been living a good life in All Beings Base. Once they left, they would learn how seriously food and other supplies were running short in the other bases, especially in the bases with millions of people. The living conditions in those bases were terrible.
Currently, All Beings Base had its own farm to grow food. It possessed clean land sources, and pure, uninfected catmint. Soon enough, the people who chose to leave would realize how wonderful the life in All Beings Base was.
The smart people would think of those before making the decision!


We don’t need to be escorted! Who knows if you’ll escort us to death? We can get through the areas with underground creatures by ourselves!
The people who wanted to leave said agitatedly. They knew that the base wasn’t entirely surrounded by underground creatures yet, and they could simply avoid running into them. They suspected that Lin Feng’s people would kill them and feed them to zombies once they exited the base.
Lin Feng nodded carelessly, saying,
Suit yourselves. You can leave or stay. You’ll be living the same kind of life as you’ve been living before if you chose to stay.


Who’ll want to stay? We’re not idiots! Let’s go! Everybody, let’s go! Be careful! They might be up to something else, or else why would they tell us the truth now?
The people who wanted to leave said to Lin Feng scornfully and then turned to gather the ones who also wanted to leave.
While people in panic were teaming up and preparing to leave, someone suddenly said,
I’m not leaving! I’ll stay!

The man who said that was a masculine-looking, sturdy man, who was in his thirties. As his voice was heard, the scene suddenly quieted down and everyone turned to look at him.
With a calm look on his face, he said,
We might not survive by leaving here and joining Sea City Base or Huaxia Base. They are both in severe shortage of food now. Also, Huaxia Base isn’t accepting new survivors now. And, all the farmlands have been polluted. Only this place can grow safe food. If we leave here, we might not be killed by zombies, but can very likely be starved to death.

The man was a survivor from Hades Base, the leader of the people who joined All Beings Base as the second batch. His name was Wang Jian. As a commoner, he was more insightful and braver than the others, and also extra cautious. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have managed to bring a group of people from Hades Base to All Beings Base safely.
He had had a vision of the situation of the other bases since long ago. Sea City Base was the best choice for the people who wanted to leave All Beings Base. However, as a large base with a great population and without a farm, it was suffering a serious shortage of food. He had heard that All Beings Base was now Sea City Base’s source of food.
Going to Huaxia Base was impossible. Not to mention the long and dangerous journey, Huaxia Base currently wasn’t open to new residents at all! Therefore, leaving might not be the right choice. Wang Jian believed that staying was the right thing to do. After all, people and zombies had been sharing the base peacefully in the past two years.

At last, Wang Jian looked at Lin Feng and said,
We are willing to stay, but we need to know the whole truth. At least, we need to know about our current situation, and the situation of them, the ones in Base Number Two.
