Gao Wei’s Ambition, Heiyu’s Blackmail?

They were not indeed old acquaintance, and were barely childhood playmates. Their catch-up with Gao Wei ended soon. When they returned, the four of them didn't drive the car but strolled back. The Capital Base had been developed into a mature one. In addition to special geographic areas like the Martyrs' Cemetery, other places were all packed with high- and low-rise buildings. Every inch of the land hand been exploited.

"That Gao Wei, he's really ambitious."

On the way back, Tan Weiye suddenly spoke. None of them were idiots. Why would a junior base commander of Northeast Base care so much about the Capital Base, the Southeast Base, and the Northwest Base? If he wanted to learn about the overall situation, he could've just sent his subordinates. Apart from the future plans to annex the major bases and unify China, he really could not think of any other reasons why he did it.

"No matter he's ambitious or not, he has to have the capability to do so. Does he think that we'll just watch him do whatever he wants?"

Mo Wenyang pursed his lips. Now they were still having a hard time dealing with zombies and some people were starving and freezing. How could someone think about a civil war at this point?

"I have fought with him in military exercises before. He's not the kind of person who is overly ambitious. His ambition must be solidified by his supreme strength. Maybe there's some secret that we don't know about or some powerful weapon in the Northeast Base.

Xing Feng, who was walking side by side with them, calmly presumed, but to his surprise, Yun Che continued, "Not maybe. There must be."

"Are you sure? What do you know?"

At those words, the three looked at him in unison. They knew that Yun Che was reborn. Had the Northeast Base showed their complete ambition in his previous life.

"The mutant human beings. They might be close to developing mutant human beings."

Yun Che let out a deep sigh. Even he, who was so indifferent to the death of outsiders, felt sick every time when it came to mutant human beings. Mutant human beings they were talking now were not those kind of creatures with human head and horse body or those cute ones like Doraemon. They were talking about the combination of various kinds of mutant creatures with humans, such as the one with a body of a plant and a head of a human, or those with the body of a human and the head of a crocodile. Their appearance was so disgusting but they were so much more combative than pure superfunction possessors or mutant beasts. Superfunction possessors were powerful in terms of their attacks but they were easily injured, while mutant beats had strong bodies but they couldn't manipulate superfunction. The mutant human beings managed to integrate the advantages of the two.

"Mutant human beings?"

The faces of three people suddenly went sullen. Even without Yun Che's explanation, they could've understood what the words mean. They must require a large number of survivors to develop mutant human beings. Had the Northeast Base gone crazy? This was simply too cruel. They didn't consider themselves to be good people, but they were incapable of such cruelty.

"Are you sure?"

Xing Feng's voice was a little tight. He knew he was asking a very idiotic question. Yun Che had come back from the fourth year into doomsday, so how could he be wrong? Even if his rebirth had created a lot of butterfly effects, and things that should have happened didn't happen, while things that shouldn't have happened did, however influential the butterfly effect was, it was not possible to have affected the Northeast Base where Yun Che hadn't been. Therefore, this must be a sure fact.

However, not only Xing Feng, but Tan Weiye and Mo Wenyang looked at him as if they were expecting him to shake his head. They would rather that Yun Che was just joking with them.

"I'm not sure exactly when it was developed. After all, in my previous life I had a very limited scope of contact, but this indeed happened, because in more than three years of the doomsday, once the Capital Base was surrounded by millions of zombies, the Northeast Base dispatched an army of mutant human beings. It was because of their help that the Capital Base was able to survive the crisis. After that the Northeast Base made a lot of publicity about their safety, and it is said that many superfunction possessors of the remaining bases have run to join them."

Yun Che didn't have much understanding on this kind of high-level stuff, and what he knew was what everyone knew.

"It seems that civil war is inevitable and the biggest enemy is the Northeast Base."

After taking a deep breath, Mo Wenyang sighed. The Northeast Base was so cruel to their own soldiers, so how could they treat the survivors or people from other bases well?

"Shit…"

Tan Weiye cursed but he didn't know what else to say, so he simply kicked his toes as hard as he could as if he was lashing out anger. Xing Feng and Yun Che looked at each other and both sighed helplessly. Although it was what they had to worry about in the future, the right to survive was always reserved for those who were prepared. It seemed that they should get prepared against the Northeast Base from now on. If they really had the ambition to unify China, this battle was inevitable, unless they all migrated to Yun Che's Space, and lived their life inside, never coming back out again. But this was what a coward would do, not something they were used to.

"Don't worry so much. Gao Wei came here today to ask around, so the mutant human beings must still be in progress. Even if they are successfully developed, I don't think all of them will live. After all, humans and mutant beasts are two different species and it won't be that easy to combine them together. If we're really worried, when we settle the business in the capital, we will travel to the Northeast Base and destroy their research institute and all the information. Then we'll kill a few primary researchers, so they won't be able to develop mutant human beings."

Seeing that they were not in a high mood, Yun Che proposed half-jokingly and half seriously. Once they were certain that the Northeast Base would pose a threat to them, he really didn't mind eliminating them all.

"You're indeed a home-guarding beast…"

Mo Wenyang muttered in a low voice. Then his gloominess was wiped away as he said, "Well, there's nothing to worry about. It's just mutant human beings, right? However ferocious they are, they can't compete with a specific home-guarding beast. If Gao Wei wants to unify China, he has to think about it seriously that whether he's qualified or not."

"Can I ask who is the beast you are talking about?"

Did he think that he missed what he muttered? Yun Che rolled his eyes speechlessly. He just punched him the first time they met. Why was he holding a grudge for so long?

"What beast? Did you hear it right? I've never said that."

Mo Wenyang refuted in a serious way and he didn't even blink. Tan Weiye, who had problem understanding what was going on, asked curiously, "What beast? What are you two talking about?"

Why was he increasingly confused?

Xing Feng smiled and answered, "Wenyang always says that Che was a home-guarding beast because…"

Ignoring Mo Wenyang's glare, Xing Feng slowly told the story.

"Just laugh if you want to. I will not be held responsible if you're sick for holding back your laughter."

After listening to the story, Tan Weiye wanted to laugh and did not dare to. Mo Wenyang, whose embarrassing past was told, glanced at him. Did he say anything wrong? In the whole country of China, how many people were more ferocious than Yun Che? What was he if he was not a home-guarding beast?

"Ahem…I mean, it's an extremely accurate description."

Tan Weiye, who had also seen Yun Che's terrifying combat power, coughed twice to hold back his laughter. He did it because he truly felt this way and he wanted to please someone. He had just got his sweetheart and if his sweetheart left him because he laughed, who could he tell his grievance to?

"Right? But he just won't admit it."

Finally found a like-minded partner, Mo Wenyang pulled him, and the two of them got even closer, while they walked away from Xing Feng and Yun Che, in case someone would suddenly strike at them.

"I now finally understand what it means by having a lover makes you forget all about humanity. Ye, how can you make fun of your own brother in order to please your sweetheart. Don't you feel sorry about it?"

Yun Che shook his head as if his heart was broken and he was immensely disappointed. Meanwhile, Xing Feng chimed in with him, "Not long while ago, he said he was a mad dog. How can a mad dog feel sorry? Che, you've overestimated him."

"Fuck off. We're no better than each other. Am I the only one to spoil our sweetheart? Why does everyone call you an errand boy? Don't think I know nothing about it. I can't even compare to you in this regard."

"That is true. If Yun Che throws a dog bone one day, he'll obediently fetch it."

The couple, who had just made their relationship clear, was reluctant to show weakness and they united to roast Yun Che and Xing Feng.

"Mr. Mo, you…"

"Ding Ding…"

Yun Che was just about to counterattack when the phone in his pocket suddenly rang. The Capital Base was similar to the Southwest Base now, and cell phones were available inside the base. The network was also available, but you had to set it up yourself, and it could only be used inside the base.

"Cheng?"

Fishing out the phone and looking at it, Yun Che casually picked it up. Hearing him call Yun Cheng's name, the three who were messing around with each other instantly put behind their argument and all gathered around.

"Brother, have you guys finished yet? Come back and watch the good show when you are done."

As soon as the phone was picked up, Yun Cheng's laughter came over. Yun Che was a bit confused, "What good show?"

They just had some fun, and what kind of good show could there be? It couldn't be that the Xiao Family and Liu Family fell out and invite them to spectate, right?

"Haha…our Heiyu blackmailed the Xiao Family."

"What?"

Blackmail? The Xiao family?

What was going on? Yun Che was indeed dumbfounded. He believed that Heiyu would get into trouble, but blackmailing, and blackmailing the Xiao Family? When had Heiyu ever involved in such a classy act?

Well, he admitted that he was really in the mood for a good show. Heiyu was blackmailing the Xiao Family and it was not something he could miss.

"Anyway, just come back first. I can't make it clear on the phone. It is quite a lively scene right now. Oh right. We're in Section A and remember go directly here."

Yun Cheng on the other end of the phone obviously didn't have time to talk to them in detail. Perhaps he was watching it with great interest. After saying that, he directly hung up the phone.

"Heiyu messed up again?"

Apart from Xing Feng, Mo Wenyang was the only one who would ask the question. Obviously, Tan Jiantian hadn't known Heiyu well enough. Mo Wenyang was the one asked. Because he was standing far away, he only heard the name Heiyu being mentioned and he wasn't clear about anything else. In the doomsday, the hearing of superfunction possessors were enhanced, and even those without enhanced hearing could eavesdrop others' conversation over the phone quite easily. Afterall, before the doomsday, most of those cell phones were designed with high volumes, so as experienced as they were, they were always cautious to lower the volume of their phones so that no one would hear the secrets they shouldn't hear.

"He said that Heiyu was blackmailing the Xiao family, but he didn't talk about the details. Shall we go back and have a look?"

Putting away the phone, Yun Che raised his eyebrows and smirked. He looked extremely insidious.

"Then what are you waiting for? Hurry up and get the car out."

How would they miss the chance to watch a show somehow related to the Xiao Family?

"Section A?"

After Xing Feng took out an off-roader that was known for its speed, the four people immediately get on. Xing Feng, who was on the driver's seat looked at Yun Che with a smile. The latter nodded, and the black off-roader dashed out like an arrow.
