What are you calling me so late for?\" Yiming grumpily asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Do you know any nuclear weapon near us? Like a missile site of some sort?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How the hell am I supposed to know? It's a government top secret. I'm only a major before the outbreak.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Shit... I need to talk to you tomorrow before we start the military reform.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Okay. I'm going back to sleep.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Yiming hung up the call, Xiaoyun turned his attention back to the document.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The rest of the boxes were mostly smaller factions under military control, ruling across the three countries in the region.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unfortunately, the thing he wanted to see wasn't in that box, as there were no notes regarding Central Asia or the Far East of Vladivostok.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Besides that, Xiaoyun moved to the second last box, which was labeled with the word United States.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Much to his disappointment, all of the information was with the label one or two years ago.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Still, it was better than no information as he began reading the detailed account of what happened across the ocean.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just like most regions around the world, America had devolved into different cities and factions fighting for power.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although much of the military was actually relatively unscratched, the entire government had collapsed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was just pure unluckiness as all three branches had turned or were bitten by zombies, leading to a disorganized effort to maintain stability.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A few weeks after the outbreak, most of the military stations in Europe flew back to the United States.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet some of them flew back to Europe, which is how this group of foreigners obtained information on America.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Interestingly enough, a keynote that Xiaoyun found was the fact that shipping between continents was impossible.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It wasn't because of a compass malfunction or because nobody wanted to do it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instead, it was because sea mutants attacked human ships, just like the one that Xiaoyun's harbor had faced.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With the American's box out of the way, only one last box remained, simply labeled mutants.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unlike what he expected about that giant mutant in a European capital, it was about zombie mutants.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Most of them were familiar to the ones that he had experienced in China, but some were unique, like a zombie that could use a sound wave attack.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I guess this is all the information...\" Xiaoyun murmured as he put the last document back into the box.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With four boxes filled with documentation, he began to consider whether he should have it recorded in the military information.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the end, he dragged all four boxes into his closet, not wanting to spread panic on something that was extremely far away from them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>---\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next day...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Despite Xiaoyun only sleeping for four hours, he was rested enough to wake up and go downstairs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nobody was up yet, as it was only six o'clock in the morning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he headed over to the guest room, he knocked on Kate and Anna's room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After waiting for a bit, the door finally opened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I want to talk to you two about something.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Anna didn't hold the door back, so she opened it all the way, letting him come inside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They looked curious, as if they were wondering what Xiaoyun wanted to talk about so early in the morning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You two realized what happened in Europe, right?\" Xiaoyun asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Both girls nodded, as they were the ones who wrote all the notes and translations.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I'm sure you guys won't spread the news. But I just wanted to make sure, don't tell it to Yuqi or anyone else.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Even Leyan?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Even Leyan. No one except Yezi and me... I'll tell Yiming later, but that's beside the point.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Both girls nodded again, zipping their mouths shut.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Great. You two had gotten all the information from those Europeans, right?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing them nodding again, Xiaoyun smiled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Okay. Can you two bring a few workers with you to help them refuel their plane? The soldiers are going to be a little busy today.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sure. I actually have a few engineers who used to be airport maintenance crew.\" Anna spoke up this time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You really just going to send them back?\" Kate asked as if she looked a little surprised by Xiaoyun's action.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Why wouldn't I? They already fulfill their duty. I'm not going to break my promise over something so small.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Both of the girls seemed to approve of his decision, as they didn't question it any further.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ahem, then I'm going to go back to——\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before Xiaoyun could finish talking, Kate suddenly held onto his hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I... I want to do it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Both Anna and Xiaoyun froze, as they didn't expect her to say something so lewd out of nowhere.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Right now?\" Xiaoyun asked to make sure he heard it right.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Right now... I haven't done it for so long, okay? I'm just getting a little frustrated after what we saw yesterday morning.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Kate genuinely want to do it so badly, Xiaoyun's heart softens as he prepares to say yes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But before he could, Anna's face was already blushing red as her mind flashed back to what happened a week ago.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ahem, can you two do it somewhere else? I want to sleep for a little bit longer——\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Come on, Anna, didn't you promise Leyan that you're going to marry Xiaoyun sooner or later?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I-I never said that,\" Anna argued out loud as she shyly looked down to the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Really? Then I guess you just shot my boyfriend for no reason, then? I never knew you were this cold-blooded.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Anna didn't fall for Kate's taunt as she knew what she was trying to do. Still, her mind was starting to be swayed a little.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don't guilt trip me. That was two different things. He already accepted my apology.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Let's be real. Xiaoyun is the kind of person who accepts any apology. In your heart, do you think just saying sorry and giving a gift is enough?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Anna hesitating and not flat out leaving the room, Kate knew her plan was starting to work.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You want to know what you can give as a real apology to him? Your body is the only thing valuable to him that he cares about——\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I never said that——\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Shush, Can you not see I'm trying to help you?\" Kate looked back at Xiaoyun in anger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All Xiaoyun could do was awkwardly laugh as he didn't expect his morning meeting to end up like this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a short silence, Anna finally made her decision.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Not today. I don't want to lose my first time like this——\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Come on, you say that every time. You can't just keep on stalling like this. Just give him something.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With Anna sitting in silence again, Kate could feel she was about to give in to temptation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Anna, just ignore her. You can make up your mind whenever you feel like it. And no, Kate, I don't need your help.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You! Whatever, I'm going back to sleep instead.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Kate jumped back into the bed, Xiaoyun turned his attention back to Anna, who still hadn't said anything.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don't let others pressure you into something you'll regret. I know you care a lot about your faith and stuff——\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before Xiaoyun finished talking, Anna suddenly got up from her bed and kissed him on the lips.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Thank you... I-I will give you an answer next week.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Anna quickly shoved Xiaoyun out of the room, then slammed the door shut right before his face.\u003C\u002Fp>",1501,"2026-06-10T06:59:31.433Z",1,"novelbin.me","065c4a5c27570d0424946e43f2852a06c5a69f229d60f24f619c41ae6f3b6f7c","zombie-apocalypse-creation-chapter-409","zombie-apocalypse-creation-chapter-407",829,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fzombie-apocalypse-creation-cover.jpg"]
