Zombie Apocalypse: Reborn With A Farming Space novel Chapter 504

Chapter 504: Grilled Scorpion Feast ( 1 )

While they spent a lot of stamina to escape, the Phantom Team members were unharmed. Standing at the foot of the mountain, Zhang Yuan wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "Let’s go."

They didn’t dare to delay and rushed to the car after drinking some water. When they were on their way back, Zhang Yuan made a call using his satellite phone. The call rang for a while before it was picked up.

"Hello." 𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮

"Vice Commander Wen, it’s me, Zhang Yuan."

"Vice Captain Zhang, aren’t you on a mission? Did something happen?" Wen Hanli asked with a hint of surprise.

He had received a report from the mission hall that the Phantom Team took several A-rank missions and one S-rank mission this morning. While he didn’t doubt their capability, he still couldn’t help but worry about their safety.

After all, not to mention an S-rank mission, even an A-rank mission was very dangerous. It took at least ten ability-users to complete an A-rank mission. But the Phantom Team divided the team and went with only three to four people.

Hearing his question, Zhang Yuan replied, "Vice Commander Wen, my team went to the northeast mountain to eliminate the Mutant Plant there."

"But after we arrived, we discovered that the mountain was taken over by a Mutant Banyan Tree. Judging from the attack power, it should be at least level four."

As soon as he said this, Wen Hanli said, "I will inform the Commander about this matter. Your team should retreat and avoid a head-on battle against it."

"We are currently on our way back," Zhang Yuan said.

When he heard this, Wen Hanli heaved a sigh of relief and replied, "Good. We will have a meeting when your team is back."

"Okay," Zhang Yuan agreed immediately.

After he hung up the call, Pei Yixie couldn’t help but ask curiously, "Vice Captain, why did you contact Vice Commander Wen instead of my brother?"

"Captain took an S-rank mission, and it might be inconvenient for him to have a phone call right now. Since we need manpower, we can ask the base to send a support team. There is no need to bother Captain with this matter," Zhang Yuan said.

Hearing this, Pei Yixie nodded and asked again, "If the base sends people to help us, then will we get the full reward after we complete this mission?"

Noticing that she was worried that the base would cut off their payment, Zhang Yuan let out a chuckle and replied, "Don’t worry. They will pay us in full."

Pei Yixie and Fu Guai let out a sigh of relief after they heard this. They didn’t care if their workload increased as long as they got paid. After all, they needed lots of points to buy delicious snacks in the marketplace.

At the same time, another group of the Phantom Team, led by Li Sikai, was fighting a group of zombies in the east area.

The sunset dyed the sky with red, orange, and purple hues, exuding an ethereal beauty. But under the sky, the ground was covered with rotten flesh and black blood, while the air was filled with a thick, rancid stench.

Crack! Boom! Boom! Boom!

It took them forty minutes before they finally managed to shake off the zombies following them. Zhou Huajian glanced at the rearview mirror and said, "Brother Sikai, the zombies no longer follow us."

Opening the map, Li Sikai checked the area for a moment before he said, "There is a small gas station four hundred meters away. We will stay there for the night."

"Okay."

Twenty minutes later, they arrived at the small gas station. They looked at the damaged road, stained walls, and broken glass. Just by looking at the situation here, they knew that a battle had taken place in this place before.

Zhou Huajian parked the armored car near the small convenience store. After they came out, he locked the doors and pulled out their weapons.

As the sun set on the western horizon, the red moon slowly rose. Illuminated by the red moonlight, the building was shrouded in an eerie atmosphere.

Shen Jinzhe took out a small flashlight from his backpack and pointed it at the convenience store. The moment the light shone on the building, they saw that the broken glass door was blocked by planks.

Seeing this, they walked around the building and checked the windows. As expected, the windows were also blocked by planks. Since this place was taken, they didn’t insist on going in and went to check the warehouse behind the gas station.

Not long after they left, a group of people hiding inside the convenience store heaved a sigh of relief.

"Have they gone?" a woman asked hoarsely.
