Seeing the approaching battle blade, a look of ferocity appeared on Qing Lang's face. He actually gave up trying to fight Ding Ning head-on. Even if he took a few hits, he was determined to snatch the battle blade or knock it away. He couldn't let Ding Ning get it, no matter what.

Seeing Qing Lang disregarding his attacks and rushing towards the battle blade, Ding Ning unhesitatingly adopted the exact opposite fighting style—completely ignoring the battle blade and launching a full-force attack on Qing Lang...

"Bang!"

Ding Ning threw a series of punches. Although Qing Lang tried his best to dodge, he couldn't block or counterattack, and took two heavy blows. One of his ribs was broken, but he gritted his teeth and persevered.

In Qing Lang's view, it would take Ding Ning at least a few seconds to kill him with his fists, and before that, he would be able to grab or knock away the battle blade.

By then, even if there were survivors willing to risk their lives to help him snatch it back, he would be able to take advantage of that time to kill Ding Ning. So, he was willing to get injured to solve the problem of the battle blade first, to prevent Ding Ning from getting it.

At this moment, the battle blade was already close at hand. Qing Lang gritted his teeth, transferred the dagger to one hand, and reached out with the other directly towards the battle blade...

"Puff!"

What Qing Lang didn't expect was that Ding Ning, who had been fighting empty-handed, suddenly pulled out a dagger and, taking advantage of the wide-open space in front of Qing Lang as he reached for the battle blade, stabbed it lightning-fast into his left chest.

The battle blade was indeed Ding Ning's main weapon, and his favorite to use, but how could Ding Ning only carry one weapon?

He hadn't used it before because he had seen Qing Lang easily break other people's machetes or daggers with the dagger in his hand, so Ding Ning hadn't taken it out until now, when he seized this opportunity and finally succeeded in one fell swoop!

"You..."

The cold blade pierced his heart, causing Qing Lang's hand, which had already touched the battle blade, to stop immediately. He turned his head, staring at Ding Ning in disbelief, and said with difficulty:

"You..."

"Hmph! Useless trash!"

Before Qing Lang could finish speaking, a hoarse voice came from afar. Then, a black iron chain arrived in an instant, piercing through Qing Lang's chest and causing him to let out a miserable scream.

Then, the iron chain retracted at an extremely fast speed, and Qing Lang's body was taken away with it. Because it happened so suddenly, and the iron chain pierced through Qing Lang's body right away, Ding Ning didn't know if it was friend or foe.

Therefore, when the iron chain took Qing Lang away, Ding Ning was completely unable to stop it, and could only watch Qing Lang scream all the way as he was taken into the darkness...

Because Qing Lang was taken away, the crisis in the base was instantly resolved. Although there were still some survivors in the base who had turned into zombies due to death, there were not many because the sniper always blew their heads off.

"Leader! What do we do next? Are we still moving to the main prison?"

A person came behind Ding Ning and asked. It was Chen Xiao!

Earlier, when everyone was fighting, he went up to the watchtower, looked at Xiao Shan, and found that he was still alive. So, Chen Xiao took advantage of Qing Lang being entangled by Ding Ning to quickly carry Xiao Shan into the main prison, handed him over to his family, and then rushed out.

But before he could join the battle, Qing Lang was taken away by that iron chain!

However, although Qing Lang did not die in front of everyone in the end, Ding Ning's previous performance had undoubtedly conquered all the survivors in the prison base.

Regardless of whether Ding Ning was a "parachuted" leader, at least when the base was in crisis and the survivors were being slaughtered, Ding Ning had been fighting, even risking his life.

In such a world, having such a leader was the greatest luck for all the survivors in this base. They were also willing to accept the leadership of such a leader, so even Chen Xiao directly called him leader, without any reluctance.

Ding Ning didn't notice this, because he was still lost in thought, looking at the place where Qing Lang had disappeared.

"Leader?"

Chen Xiao saw that Ding Ning didn't speak, and asked again with some worry.

At this time, Ding Ning could be said to be quite disheveled. His combat suit was completely torn, and his body was covered with wounds cut open by daggers. There was hardly a piece of intact skin. Just standing there for a while, a lot of blood had accumulated at his feet.

"Huh? Oh! I'm fine!"

Only then did Ding Ning notice Chen Xiao. He turned around and looked at the survivors who were originally moving, but because of Qing Lang's disappearance, didn't know whether to continue and were standing there looking at him, waiting for new orders. After thinking for a while, he said:

"Continue the move! Qing Lang is still alive, he will be back!"

"Qing Lang is that guy just now?"

Chen Xiao asked.

"Yes!"

Ding Ning nodded:

"He was originally a prisoner in the jail. I don't know why, but not only did he not die, he even became so powerful!"

"But... he was stabbed in the heart by the leader just now, and then his body was pierced by that iron chain. He shouldn't be coming back, right?"

Chen Xiao asked with some disbelief.

When he rushed over to join the battle just now, he happened to see Qing Lang stabbed in the heart by Ding Ning's dagger, and then his body was pierced from the back by that iron chain. He still wouldn't die like that?

"He will definitely be back!"

Ding Ning shook his head and turned to look at Chen Xiao:

"Since that sniper hiding in the dark rescued him, then he will definitely be able to survive! Even if he is seriously injured! Moreover, it's better to be safe than sorry. No matter what, let everyone deal with it in the main prison first. Being uncomfortable is better than losing your life!"

As he said that, Ding Ning looked at the surrounding corpses with a sad expression.

Qing Lang's raid on the prison, if calculated from the time the alarm was sounded in Wu City to the time Qing Lang was rescued, actually did not exceed twenty minutes in total.

But these twenty minutes caused heavy casualties in the prison base. At least one hundred survivors lost their lives in this raid.

Chen Xiao also saw the corpses, so he stopped talking, waved his hand to signal everyone to continue the move. Yes, compared to death, what did simple conditions matter?

"Chen Xiao, let everyone not worry about the corpses for the time being. Everyone enter the main prison first. After I confirm one thing, we will decide what to do!"

"Yes!"

Chen Xiao immediately agreed, and then asked curiously:

"What...do you want to confirm?"

"I don't know either!"

Ding Ning shook his head, then turned to look at the side of the main prison cell, and murmured:

"Maybe... there can give me some answers!"

After saying that, Ding Ning stepped towards the main prison. Chen Xiao quickly called over a few people, told them that all the people who were still alive and had not been scratched by zombies should enter the main prison first, and not clean up the corpses for the time being. Then, he also chased after Ding Ning.

"Click!"

Arriving at the prison door, Ding Ning took out the key to unlock the door, and then pushed open the heavy door with force. When he saw the situation inside the prison, his body instantly stiffened...
