Chapter 71

Lin Chen was flying in the sky toward the south of the city,

and a system prompt sounded in his ear: 【Detected 3 defensive fortifications outside the survivor base in the south of the city, equipped with machine guns and electric nets, it is recommended that the host infiltrate from the abandoned ventilation duct at the rear of the base to avoid direct confrontation.】 He looked down,

the outline of the base gradually becoming clear—the gray wall was 5 meters high, wrapped in barbed wire,

and several armed personnel were patrolling back and forth, the guns in their hands gleaming coldly in the sun.

Following the system's guidance, Lin Chen landed at the rear of the base and found the ventilation duct hidden under the snow.

He mobilized his Absolute Zero ability, and the chill at his fingertips instantly froze the iron cover of the ventilation duct until it was brittle,

and with a light snap, it shattered into several pieces. 【Detected no monitoring inside the ventilation duct, safe passage possible,

target Zhang Wei is currently in the base command room, talking to the person in charge of the base.】 The system updated the information in real-time, and Lin Chen bent down and crawled into the duct; in the darkness,

his eyes, under the enhancement of his ability, could clearly see the road conditions, and he crawled rapidly toward the command room.

The end of the duct was directly opposite the ceiling of the command room, and Lin Chen held his breath,

looking down through the cracks—Zhang Wei was sitting on the sofa, holding a cup of hot coffee,

a fawning smile on his face, saying to the person in charge opposite him: "Brother Li, don't worry,

next time I find supplies, I will definitely send them to you first! That kid Lin Chen was just stupid before,

he had good things and didn't know how to show filial piety, and in the end, didn't he just feed the zombies?"

Hearing this, Lin Chen's fists instantly clenched, his nails digging deep into his palms.

He quietly opened his infinite space, took out the Purple Lightning Purification Gun, and aimed it at the iron mesh of the duct. As the current flashed,

the iron mesh instantly melted into a large hole. Lin Chen jumped down, landing steadily on the ground,

and the two people in the command room stood up in terror. Zhang Wei saw Lin Chen, his face instantly turning pale,

and the coffee cup in his hand fell to the ground with a "clatter," the scalding liquid splashing all over the floor.

"Lin... Lin Chen? Aren't you dead?" Zhang Wei retreated repeatedly, his body hitting the sofa,

almost falling down. The base person in charge, Brother Li, reacted and reached out to touch the gun at his waist,

but Lin Chen was quick-witted, mobilized his Absolute Zero ability, and an ice cone instantly shot toward Brother Li's wrist.

"Ah!

" Brother Li screamed, the gun fell to the ground, and his wrist was frozen, unable to move.

"Zhang Wei, long time no see.

" Lin Chen walked closer step by step, his voice as cold as the winter wind, "You just said,

how did I die?" Zhang Wei was shaking all over, his tongue tied: "I... I was talking nonsense! Brother Chen, we are childhood friends, how could I wish for your death?"

"Childhood friends?" Lin Chen sneered, remembering how he was chased by zombies in his past life,

and when he begged Zhang Wei for help, the other party kicked him toward the zombie group, even smiling and saying "You block them for a while,

I'll go find someone to save you." "When you pushed me to the zombies in my past life, why didn't you say we were childhood friends?"

Lin Chen raised his hand, cold air condensing in his palm, "You snatched my supplies, sold my information,

and now you dare to speak ill of me behind my back, do you think I will let you go?"

Zhang Wei saw this, suddenly knelt down, and kowtowed non-stop: "Brother Chen, I was wrong!

I was really wrong! Please, for the sake of us growing up together, spare my life!

I will listen to you from now on, I'll be your servant!" Brother Li also hurriedly echoed: "Brother, let's talk, whatever supplies you want, I'll give them to you! Don't do anything!"

Lin Chen's eyes didn't waver in the slightest; he walked to Zhang Wei, bent down, and pinched his chin,

forcing him to look up: "Spare you? Did you spare me in my past life?" As soon as he finished speaking, he let go, and the cold air in his palm instantly exploded. Zhang Wei's body froze at a speed visible to the naked eye,

and in a few seconds, he turned into an ice sculpture,

fear still remaining in his eyes. 【Detected that the host has completed revenge on Zhang Wei, revenge mission progress 3/3. Reward: Absolute Zero Ultimate Comprehension Fragment ×1, collect 3 pieces to unlock ultimate skill.】 The system prompt popped up, but Lin Chen ignored it, raised his hand to carry Zhang Wei's ice sculpture, and walked toward the outside of the base.

Brother Li was paralyzed on the ground, watching Lin Chen's back, not even daring to breathe loudly.

Lin Chen walked out of the command room, and the survivors in the base saw him carrying the ice sculpture and retreated in terror, no one daring to block him. He walked to the zombie gathering area outside the base,

and threw the ice sculpture violently. The ice sculpture landed and shattered, the zombies swarmed up, instantly tearing Zhang Wei's corpse into pieces.

Watching this scene, the stone in Lin Chen's heart finally fell, but for some reason,

he didn't feel the satisfaction he had imagined, but instead felt a bit empty. He said to the system: 【Return to Sky Dome Villa】, and just as he was about to mobilize the flight skill, the system suddenly popped up an emergency prompt: 【Detected that the Sky Dome Villa is under attack by an unknown force, the Purple Lightning Net has been destroyed, Xia Nuan and A Kai's vital signs are weak, it is recommended that the host return immediately to support.】

"What?!"

Lin Chen's face changed drastically, his heart instantly panicked—if Xia Nuan and A Kai had an accident,

what was the point of him taking revenge? He didn't hesitate anymore, thought,

and his body rose rapidly into the air, flying toward the villa, his speed several times faster than when he came. On the way, he kept asking the system: 【Who is attacking the villa? Where is He Ximan?】 【Attacker identity unknown, no Shadow Organization signal detected; He Ximan's vital signs have disappeared, suspected to have left the villa.】 The system's answer made Lin Chen's heart sink further, and he clenched his fists, with only one thought in his mind: must rush back and protect Xia Nuan and A Kai!
