Lord of Illusions City
Chapter 244 Blood Debt Repaid
Zhang Hu's mouth twitched as he said, "Cats don't chat with me about this stuff! Sigh! Frustrating! Never mind!"
As he spoke, Zhang Hu went to check on Li Chenzhou, then turned to Duan Lei and said, "I have to go, or those guys will get impatient and tear this car apart! Tell Broken Boat when he wakes up to come find me directly, and stop about a kilometer away from me. I'll come to meet him!"
"Alright, Brother Hu!"
Duan Lei nodded.
"Brothers and sisters! In this world, it's not easy just to survive, let alone have such a good environment. Cherish it! I'm off!"
Zhang Hu waved to the others again, then walked back into the carriage and got out of the car.
"Brother Hu! Did you kill the Rat King?"
Duan Lei also got out of the car and asked.
"No! Can't catch it! That guy has a very sensitive nose. He smells the cat scent and slips away from afar! The other rats are the same!"
Zhang Hu shook his head and said, "If these rats hadn't been attacking you, and the stench of blood here wasn't so strong that they didn't notice us, I wouldn't have been able to kill so many at once!"
"They're just afraid of the smell of cats?"
Duan Lei's eyes lit up.
"That's right!"
Zhang Hu nodded. He really didn't know before that cats had such a strong odor. One or two might not be noticeable, but with hundreds or thousands of cats together, the smell is absolutely intoxicating!
"Brother Hu, do you know the approximate location of the Rat King?"
Duan Lei asked again.
"%&*%*&%*& (Too lazy to make it up, everyone imagine it themselves =.=)."
At this moment, the big orange cat saw Brother Hu get out of the car and stood up, wanting to come over. Brother Hu quickly waved at it and shouted a few words that were neither understandable nor readable. Seeing the big orange cat stop, he turned back to Duan Lei and said, "What? You want to go kill that Rat King?"
"Yes! I think the rats shouldn't be scared away by our car, right?"
Duan Lei nodded and said, "So we can try!"
"Are you confident?"
Zhang Hu asked with some concern. After all, Duan Lei had just told him that if he hadn't arrived in time, Duan Lei and the others would have had to fight to the death.
"Yes! This car has many functions and can be equipped with weapons and reinforced armor. It's just that we didn't have enough kill points before, so we never got around to it!"
Duan Lei nodded and said, "Moreover, the boss fainted for some inexplicable reason. He has the highest authority, and many of the car's functions require him to do it himself or give authorization! That's why we were messed up so badly by those rats!"
"Alright, if you want to find the Rat King, wait until Broken Boat wakes up and ask him. If he says it's okay, then you can go!"
Zhang Hu nodded, then said, "Wait a moment!"
With that, Zhang Hu ran to the big orange cat, communicated with it in "cat language," and then came back, pointing to the north and telling Duan Lei, "In that direction, about three hundred kilometers away, there's a small mountain. The Rat King and his rat pack are hiding on that mountain!"
"Brother Hu, don't you have a mental link with the big orange cat? Why did you have to run over and ask?"
Duan Lei found the scene of Zhang Hu communicating with the big orange cat interesting, so he asked.
"Mental communication is very vague, just the kind where you can understand the general idea, but you can't express any specific information!"
Zhang Hu said, "Alright! I have to take them away quickly. By the way, where are the bases you've established? I'll detour around them so I don't accidentally wipe them out!"
"Uh!"
Duan Lei quickly gave Zhang Hu the locations of the previously established bases, then told him, "The boss's idea is that he wants to travel around the various bases in the future, acting as a merchant. So, no matter which base it is, if it's human, you'd better stay away. There are so many zombies in the city. Take your cats to kill zombies!"
"Yes! I know that, and I can sleep better and eat better if I enter the city!"
Zhang Hu nodded. "But this will have to wait another two or three days. By then, there shouldn't be many survivors left in the city, and those who are will be too hungry to move, just waiting to die. Then I'll enter the city!"
"Alright! That's it then, Brother Hu. When the boss wakes up, I'll tell him about your situation and what you said earlier!"
Duan Lei nodded.
"Okay!"
Zhang Hu waved, then returned to the big orange cat, straddled it directly, and led the large group of cats away in a mighty wave!
"What do we do?"
Back in the car, Gray Bear asked, "It's the middle of the night. Should we just wait here for the boss to wake up?"
"What's wrong with the middle of the night? We're going into the city!"
Duan Lei replied, "There's enough space now, and we need to store some resources for ourselves. Also, everyone can get some furniture or something according to their own preferences, so that it doesn't look the same no matter whose room you go into!"
"That's a good idea!"
Tian Ya suddenly jumped up and shouted excitedly.
Duan Xue looked at Xiaoya in her arms, then at Duan Lei, knowing that he was likely making this suggestion because of Xiaoya, because after choosing her room, Xiaoya had already been clamoring to go into the city to get new toys to decorate her room!
"I'll drive!"
Gray Bear volunteered.
Number One could also drive, but it didn't have a city map yet, so it needed someone to direct it. Rather than that, he might as well drive himself!
"I'll go outside too. It's the same wherever I chat, and I've never been in a RV before! Haha!"
Fatty followed out with a smile, and Tian Ya followed suit. The three of them came to the cab, Gray Bear drove, and chatted and joked with Fatty and Tian Ya, which seemed quite harmonious!
"I should put the boss on the bed, I don't know when he'll wake up!"
Duan Lei looked at Li Chenzhou on the sofa and said.
Actually, the sofa was also very comfortable, and the temperature in the car was just right. Moreover, with Li Chenzhou's physique, he shouldn't have caught a cold, but it still looked awkward.
"Okay! I'll take Xiaoya and Xiaoyuer to sleep!"
Duan Xue nodded and turned to walk towards Xiaoya's room, took two steps and stopped, turning to look at Duan Lei and said, "Xiao Lei! All of your decisions today were fine, so you'd better not take what happened before to heart. Otherwise, it will affect you if you encounter the same thing again!"
"Sister! I know, you don't have to persuade me!"
Duan Lei looked at Duan Xue and smiled: "Ever since I was sensible, my legs taught me not to care about other people's eyes and thoughts. Now that it's the end of the world, I've stood up again, so would I be worse off than before?"
As he spoke, Duan Lei picked up Li Chenzhou and walked towards an empty room.
"I'm telling you! I'm not bragging, I was in the special service at the time... Huh?"
Gray Bear was driving, telling Fatty and Tian Ya about his time in the special service, but suddenly stopped and looked ahead.
"What's wrong?"
Fatty walked forward curiously and immediately saw a high wall in the distance, with a few bloody words written on it: Blood debts must be paid in blood, kill!!!
"That's... a prison???"
Fatty had seen countless bloody scenes, so he didn't care about these words. But he found the wall a bit familiar, and after a closer look, he couldn't help but exclaim...
