Lord of Illusions City

Chapter 193 The Whole…Thing Go In?

"Alright! I got it!"

Luo Hong nodded after hearing Li Chenzhou's instruction to control the outflow of weapons.

"Old Luo, you guys need to be careful too. Hot weapons will basically be useless later on because even the skin of strengthened zombies will be almost as tough as a crocodile's. So, everyone needs to get used to close combat, even though it's more dangerous. But those who survive will definitely be the strong ones!"

Li Chenzhou thought for a moment and added.

"So, in the later stages, we can only rely on ability users to resist zombies and mutated beasts?"

Luo Hong's expression turned serious as he looked at his base, saying, "Then...should we move the base and try to stay further away from the city?"

"No need! Moving to the wilderness means you'll have to rebuild your houses. Plus, the wilderness is the territory of mutated beasts, which is even more dangerous!"

Li Chenzhou said, "Manage this place well, especially the walls. Make them higher and wider. Defense is always the most important! Also, don't stop collecting resources and survivors. As for survivors, you can only rescue a large number in the first week. After that, they'll either die or leave. Few people can last that long."

"Okay! I understand!"

Luo Hong nodded, then said with some regret, "It's a pity. We've killed a lot of zombies during this time, but we haven't encountered a single strengthened zombie."

"Hahahaha! That's a good thing. If there were too many strengthened zombies, it would be difficult for you to deal with them, and there might be a lot of casualties. That would be a serious blow to the morale of the base."

Li Chenzhou laughed and said, "So, while there aren't too many strengthened zombies yet, you need to let the soldiers engage in close combat and use cold weapons to kill zombies, to train their close combat abilities. It can also save some ammunition. With you as the only evolver right now, you'd probably have to use bullets to pile them to death if you encountered strengthened zombies!"

"Okay! I'll tell them!"

Luo Hong nodded, and at this moment, their car had arrived at the gate of the base.

"Not bad, well built!"

Li Chenzhou looked at the four- or five-meter-high walls made of stacked cars outside the base and nodded with satisfaction. He didn't participate in the construction of the base's walls. He just told Luo Hong the method, and he actually used cars and welding to create this seemingly pretty good wall.

"Just trying to get a foothold! Plus, there are a lot of people in the base, and there's nothing else to do. There's also a team digging an aqueduct to divert water from the river to the north!"

Luo Hong replied.

"Okay! Remember, you must filter the river water using the method I taught you, then boil it before drinking it. Before that, you should also dig an artificial lake next to the base to store some river water for later use!"

Li Chenzhou nodded.

The gate of the wall was already open, and two armored vehicles and a truck drove directly into the yard. Wang Yuanqiang jumped out and looked with envy at the surrounded six-story building and the fully armed sentries on top.

"Old Wang, let me introduce you. This is the leader of this base, Luo Hong! Old Luo, this is Wang Yuanqiang, who I told you about earlier. Like you, he's also a strength-type evolver!"

"Pleased to meet you!"

"Welcome!"

Wang Yuanqiang and Luo Hong immediately shook hands and held on for a long time. Li Chenzhou couldn't help but smile knowingly.

He had just said that the two were both strength-type evolvers, and it was obvious that these two guys wanted to compete secretly.

In the end, when the two men's hands separated, looking at the expressions on their faces, it seemed that neither had gained an advantage!

This was normal, after all, they had both become evolvers using evolution potions, and their strength attributes should differ by at most one or two points. Of course, according to Li Chenzhou's calculations, if Wang Yuanqiang used the skill from last night, it was estimated that Luo Hong would not be his opponent, after all, the types of skills were different.

"Alright! Old Luo, I've brought the person here. You guys can discuss how to cooperate in the future, I won't interfere at all. Moreover, time is tight, we still have to enter the city, so we have to leave now."

Seeing that his task was completed, Li Chenzhou said, then thought about it, and still warned the two: "However, there's something I want to say first. I'm trying to save people because I want more humans to survive. It's perfectly fine for you to negotiate, trade, or try to get more benefits for your base.

"But, don't even think about playing any games of annexation and expansion. I will not allow humans to kill each other for selfish reasons. If I find out, don't blame me for turning against you!"

"Don't worry!"

Hearing Li Chenzhou's words, the two nodded together in agreement, and the looks in their eyes at Li Chenzhou actually carried gratitude.

If it weren't for Li Chenzhou, even if they didn't have that idea themselves, they would at least have to guard against whether the other party would think that way. In that case, the cooperation between the two sides would not be too close.

But with Li Chenzhou's words, they could cooperate with peace of mind, without worrying about the other party suddenly turning against them. After all, they all knew Li Chenzhou's strength, and no one would risk facing Li Chenzhou's anger!

"Alright! You guys chat, we're leaving! Old Luo, remember to kill the crocodile today, and you can also organize a dinner party. Old Wang can give you some advice on this!"

Seeing the two nod, Li Chenzhou didn't delay any longer, waved his hand and walked towards the armored vehicle. Then, Duan Lei and Gray Bear all started the armored vehicles and drove out of the gate again.

"Boss! Which way are we going?"

After leaving Luo Hong's base and entering the outskirts of the city, Duan Lei poked his head out and asked.

Li Chenzhou had already looked at the city's map. He looked back, then looked at the map again, and pointed to a road into the city on the right, saying, "Let's go this way!"

"Alright!"

Duan Lei agreed, then turned back to look at Duan Xue, pointed to the cement pier on the side of the road and the metal railing on the pier, saying, "Sis! I can only trouble you!"

This road was similar to a highway, so both sides of the road were closed off. If you wanted to enter the road Li Chenzhou said, you had to open the railing. Although it should be possible to crash through it with an armored vehicle, after all, this armored vehicle would be used in the future, so you could only think of a way yourself.

Duan Xue didn't hesitate, nodded directly, opened the car door and got out, then activated her talent ability, and her body instantly grew larger. Then, she raised her foot and kicked the railing.

Amidst the sound of concrete cracking and the groaning of the metal railing, Duan Xue only took a few seconds to flatten a section of the railing, creating a gap large enough for the armored vehicle to enter.

"Damn! Such a big female Tyrannosaurus Rex, Boss, I feel like you can just drill right in!"

Looking at Duan Xue, who was showing great power and demolishing violently, Gray Bear couldn't help but swallow his saliva and said in a low voice...
