Rebirth before Apocalypse: My Whole Family are Bigshots!
Chapter 485: Not for Sale at Any Price
Bai Anhai was already a Third Rank Superpower User, dealing with a dozen ordinary zombies was not a big deal for him.
A dense array of purple lightning struck the zombies at the forefront.
In an instant, the zombies’ temples were penetrated, and they lay stiffly on the ground.
The zombies in suits and ties behind them weren’t penetrated in the head, but were still affected, filling the courtyard with a thick burnt smell.
They weren’t struck through the brain by the lightning and barely remained standing on the ground.
Bai Anhai had more purple lightning overflowing from his hands, ready to throw it on the remaining zombies at any moment.
However, those zombies in suits and ties didn’t charge forward again but retreated towards the gates of the courtyard.
It was Zombie King Li Mucheng controlling them to run away!
Bai Anhai did not chase after them. When he saw those ordinary zombies turn right out the gate, not charging towards his family, he stopped paying attention.
It’s impossible to clear out all the zombies, all he could do was ensure that he and the uncles were safe for now.
This was a Zombie Village; there were just too many zombies. Running around recklessly could easily get you surrounded by zombies.
It’s better for the whole family to stay together.
"Bang Bang Bang!"
Bai Anhai turned around and patted the door of the living room.
"Dad, come out quickly!"
With a creak, the door opened a crack.
Bai Zhengxuan peeked behind Bai Anhai, confirmed there were no zombies in the courtyard, then led a group of people out of the house.
At this moment, Bai Zhengxuan deeply realized that raising his son for decades was not in vain.
Quite useful indeed!
For example, right now.
"Dad, can you not run so fast next time, what if there are a lot of zombies and I can’t handle it!" Bai Anhai jokingly complained.
His dad was already seventy years old, so naturally, Bai Anhai wouldn’t expect him to fight zombies.
It’s just that his dad seemed to be running away a bit too fast?
He dared to bet, if Xiao Niu were here, his dad would definitely be the first to charge up!
"I just believe in your strength! Keep it up!"
Bai Zhengxuan scratched his head with a calm expression, walking proudly towards the gate of the courtyard.
Sighing again in his heart, a son is not as good as a char siu bun!
What kind of son is this!
Uncle Wang and Uncle Liu glanced at Bai Anhai and quickly caught up with Bai Zhengxuan in a few steps.
"Do you still want this son of yours? If not, can you give him to me?" Uncle Wang grinned, "Can I have your granddaughter too? I don’t need the grandson."
Taking advantage of the father-son "relationship fallout," attempting to adopt a grown son in his forties or fifties!
"Yeah, yeah! Old Wang and I will take good care of him!" Uncle Liu nodded vigorously, "We can’t do without the grandson, otherwise there’ll be no one to make dumplings!"
That way, they’d have endless pork and green onion stuffed dumplings!
They had to have someone to do the work, right?
"Go, go, go, no way!"
Bai Zhengxuan rolled his eyes at Old Wang and Old Liu.
Bai Anhai touched his nose, complaining inwardly, looks like my dad shows he dislikes me, but in reality, he cares a lot about this son of his~
"Oh, don’t be so stingy ― at worst, we won’t change his surname!" Uncle Wang tried persuading Bai Zhengxuan again.
"Not selling, not selling, not for anything!" Bai Zhengxuan stated seriously, "Who in the apocalypse gives away over a hundred pounds of their family’s meat?"
Bai Zhengxuan seriously doubted if Uncle Wang and Uncle Liu could offer him crystal cores that satisfied him!
Bai Anhai: ...
"...Indeed!"
Uncle Wang and Uncle Liu were at a loss for words.
"Grandpa, did you find Uncle Wang and Uncle Liu?"
Bai Xiqin’s voice came from the doorway.
Since Li Mucheng had already discovered they were here to rescue people, there was no need to hide it anymore.
"Found them! Found them!"
Uncle Wang shouted brightly in the direction of Bai Xiqin’s voice.
"Then hurry up and come out!"
Liu Jing’s gritted-teeth voice came from the gate of the courtyard.
They were fighting against the Zombie King!
Did those few take the Zombie King’s place for a market?
So long-winded, really felt like giving them a smack.
If she had a free hand, she would have yanked someone’s ear long ago!
"Coming, coming!"
Bai Anhai and Bai Zhengxuan exchanged glances and saw the slightly desperate expression on each other’s faces.
It’s over, it’s over, this time when they get back, behind closed doors, they’re definitely gonna get a beating!
A group of people quickly ran towards the courtyard’s gate.
Standing at the gate, everyone was dumbfounded.
Centering on the courtyard gate, aside from the courtyard behind them, everywhere was charred black, the scorched earth from lightning strikes was shocking.
With the aid of purple lightning, they could vaguely see a blue-and-white bus not far away, with a few people standing in front of the bus.
All the survivors were superpower users; they could sense the remaining superpower energy coming from the ground.
They felt that even the captain of the Yunhua Safety Base’s superpower team didn’t have such a strong power!
With a pop.
The bus in the distance turned on its headlights, illuminating the dark village significantly.
They saw that Zombie King Li Mucheng, who had captured them, was not far away.
His body had faint black charred patches, seemingly having been electrocuted numerous times.
Zombie King Li Mucheng’s face, however, wore a sinister smile.
Black blood gently flowed from Zombie King Li Mucheng, and a bloodthirsty smile appeared on that pale face.
"Very well, very well, you are the first to make me so wretched."
Zombie King Li Mucheng retracted the black stream flowing from his hand, his eyes narrowed dangerously.
He initially wanted to use his superpower to capture the Bai Family members as his blood reserves.
It seemed now that his superpower was not much stronger than the Bai Family’s.
And, the superpower users he had kept were all released.
Given this, don’t blame him for being impolite.
If he couldn’t have it, he’d destroy it.
"Roar――"
"Roar――"
The entire village began to echo with zombie roars, followed by the sounds of various yards’ gates being opened.
Not only the whole village’s zombies, but even outside the village, the sound of zombie footsteps came.
This indicated that Zombie King Li Mucheng’s brainwave range was extensive.
Who knew how many zombies he could summon!
Zombie King Li Mucheng no longer intended to capture the Bai Family; instead, he wanted to keep them here forever.
The zombie herd was about to arrive!
"This is bad. In a moment, you all need to be careful; follow me to the bus. If you can’t keep up, you’ll just have to stay here forever!"
After Bai Anhai finished speaking, he grabbed Bai Zhengxuan and quickly ran towards the bus.
No matter whether the people behind could keep up or not.
If they could keep up, they’d run together; if not, it was just their bad luck.
Uncle Wang and Uncle Liu were the quickest to react, having frequently been chased by zombie hordes and thus having some rich escape experience.
The moment they heard the sounds around them, they ran towards the bus, pretty much in a straight line with Bai Anhai and Bai Zhengxuan.
The rest of the physically weak superpower users also realized this was their last hope for survival, summoning strength from who knows where, and crazily ran towards the bus.
Even if they exhausted all their strength, they still couldn’t match the speed of Bai Anhai and the uncles.
"Roar――"
The zombies in the village arrived quickly, and a stench instantly filled the village, its pungency making people retch. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝐰𝚎𝕓𝐧𝚘𝘃𝗲𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝕞
Everyone knew, there were more and more zombies; if they couldn’t make it to the bus, they’d only wait for death.
