Rebirth before Apocalypse: My Whole Family are Bigshots!
Chapter 594: Never Tolerates Sand in the Eye
"Alright."
Wang Ge nodded with satisfaction.
It seems the Base Commander shares his view that father-son relationships are nothing but nonsense!
After all, sacrificing a few insignificant people is a small price, surely the Base Commander won’t make the wrong choice.
Thus, Wang Ge and the Base Commander left the villa where the Base Commander used to live, heading towards the Bai Family’s bus.
The Bai Family’s bus is parked in a remote area, so the route the Base Commander led Wang Ge on was quite hidden.
"By the way, would you like to study my son as well? His superpower is strong, similar to the Bai Family." The Base Commander casually asked.
"Sure."
A hint of sarcasm flashed in Wang Ge’s eyes, but he still nodded.
Wang Ge had previously met Leng Yebai, back when Leng Yebai was still a zombie, they clashed in Zombie Village using brainwave attacks.
Now he’s human again, definitely worth studying.
Indeed, father-son relationships are a fraud, merely giving fathers a larger toy and an extra bargaining chip, nothing more.
Thinking about this, Wang Ge recalled his own traumatic childhood shadows.
His mood turned gloomy.
He didn’t even notice when the Base Commander made his move.
A massive thunderous electric light, bringing a powerful energy storm, unhesitatingly hurled towards Wang Ge.
The nearby lights instantly became much brighter, then burst apart.
A brilliant flash before Wang Ge, and a surge of potent energy landed on him, too late to dodge, he could only wrap a green glow around himself.
Stubbornly received the energy storm from the Base Commander.
"Pfft—"
Wang Ge spat out a mouthful of fresh blood.
"What I hate most in this life are those who threaten me, especially ones as unscrupulous as you."
Purple light overflowed from the Base Commander’s fingertips, drawing out a long Tang Blade from somewhere.
The Tang Blade appeared slightly smaller than a typical one, just right to be hidden at the waist; the blade thin as cicada’s wings, yet incredibly tough.
It has been tempered by the Gold Ability User countless times, won’t break.
This is the Base Commander’s weapon, strong as he is, he seldom uses it and instead resolves issues with supernatural powers.
Today, he’s furious.
"What the hell do you think you are, daring to touch everything!"
A faintly eerie purple flickered in the Base Commander’s eyes as he charged at Wang Ge with the Tang Blade wrapped in purple electric light.
This punk had gone too far, even dared to knock on his wife’s ice coffin, does he really think the Commander is a pushover?
The more he thought, the angrier he got, the killing intent on him seemed almost tangible.
Besides this unforgivable act, Wang Ge had plans to kidnap Bai Family members.
Dammit, Bai Family members are his relatives-by-marriage!
His son’s father-in-law!
If Bai Family members were kidnapped because of him, wouldn’t his son kill him?
He’s still counting on his son to support him in old age!
Without Bai Family members, where would his son marry into?
Is finding a wife for his son easy?
Could he still freeload food and drink with Bai Family?
Even if his wife revived, knowing he harmed their son’s in-laws, wouldn’t she beat him to death?
The Base Commander was very clear-headed, had wanted to kill Wang Ge while in the basement, but his wife was there, fearing Wang Ge might damage the ice coffin.
Otherwise, he wouldn’t have played along!
"Don’t you want your wife to come back to life?"
Wang Ge stared wide-eyed at the Base Commander, wrapped in malevolent energy, somewhat in disbelief.
He thought sacrificing a few irrelevant people wouldn’t bother the Base Commander at all.
"Kid, I was out in the world before you even existed!"
The Base Commander swung his Tang Blade with precise rhythm.
Before the worldly catastrophe, he was an enthusiast of ancient knives, his collection cabinet filled with valuable blades.
Wealthy and capricious, he hired many masters to personally teach him blade techniques.
After marriage, he abandoned this costly hobby, gave all his assets to his wife to manage, and voluntarily lived frugally.
Post-catastrophe, rarely used a blade, it reminded him of his wife; now no large blade could quell his heart’s wrath.
Recalling Wang Ge’s fingers knocking back and forth on the ice coffin, he was seething, wanting to kill him.
"Without me, your wife can never resurrect! We don’t have to kidnap Bai Family members; the deal remains—still only one condition: kill my father!"
Wang Ge’s body was enveloped in green light, rapidly healing internal wounds, while the Base Commander seemed to have gone mad, fiercely swung the purple blade repeatedly.
Wang Ge’s steps grew increasingly erratic, barely avoiding each strike.
"Stop talking, tomorrow I’ll send your old man down with you!"
The Base Commander sighed slightly, the purple blade was as fast as lightning, leaving almost an afterimage.
"Ah!"
Wang Ge felt pain in his wrist, saw his hand had already fallen to the ground, blood splattering forth.
This was the hand that had knocked on the ice coffin.
The Base Commander’s eyes couldn’t tolerate deception.
Severing one hand was merely a minor lesson.
The next strike aimed at Wang Ge’s neck.
"Wang Ge!"
Captain Zhu’s voice rang out, the Base Commander suddenly felt a pain in his back, stumbled, and accidentally fell to the ground.
Fell flat on his face.
He’d been too focused, and hadn’t anticipated someone striking from behind.
"Damn it!"
The Base Commander got up from the ground, cursing.
A tall man was grabbing Wang Ge’s severed hand, carrying Wang Ge towards the base’s exit.
The Base Commander immediately pursued, dense purple lightning attacked the pair.
"Boom—"
"Roar—"
The security base’s walls, constructed by High Rank Earth Ability Users, suddenly collapsed along with zombie hordes’ roars.
The Base Commander squinted, clearly seeing the newcomer’s wound.
The purple lightning had inflicted numerous injuries on Captain Zhu, yet he seemed unaffected.
Furthermore, from the wound on his back, black blood oozed.
It’s the Zombie King!
The Base Commander’s eyes narrowed, dense purple lightning targeted the zombie horde trying to break in.
Zombies fell in waves.
In a blink, Captain Zhu had already carried Wang Ge out of the security base.
The Base Commander wanted to chase them, but with the wall breached, if he didn’t guard here, zombies breaking into the base would be troublesome.
"Where did the Superpower User squad disappear to?"
The Base Commander looked at the empty space behind him, almost cursing.
This commotion is so huge, why haven’t they come?
In truth, the fight was over in an instant; the patrol hadn’t had time to reach this secluded area!
"Did they fall asleep?"
The Base Commander sent impatient purple lightning towards a dormitory building of the Superpower User squad in the distance.
Charred the building!
"Roar—"
Zombies outside howled, attempting to break in.
The Base Commander could only remain in place, turning the zombie horde into charred remains.
The zombies appeared in great numbers, temporarily making escape difficult for the Base Commander.
Clearly, they came prepared.
"Old Leng, what’s going on? Why’s the base under zombie attack again?"
It was the first time Bai Family members had rushed over, first eye seeing the near-exploding Base Commander, Bai Anhai immediately stood beside him, joining the fight.
