Shen Feng sat down with a smile and said slowly, "That's right, the potion I gave you to drink is actually a potion specifically for obtaining superpowers. This potion has always been a secret, and your previous suggestions gave us new ideas. So, as a reward, we gave you this tube of potion, hoping you would also gain superpowers."
Guo Pinming was immediately touched. Superpowers had always been a mystery. Everyone in the base only knew that Shen Feng and Yu Renshu had superpowers, but they never expected that he himself had now gained superpowers, and it was all thanks to Shen Feng. "So it was a special reward from the chairman. I will definitely dedicate myself to repaying you in the future!"
Shen Feng naturally could not reveal the real purpose. If he said they had used him for an experiment, Guo Pinming would have turned against them on the spot. It was better to pretend that everything was as expected, making Guo Pinming follow him wholeheartedly.
Afterward, Shen Feng continued, "Actually, not many people know about the superpower potion. As for you, don't spread it around after you go out, unless it's a critical moment. Then you can use your superpowers, understand?"
Guo Pinming was a retired soldier and was well aware of confidentiality measures. He immediately replied loudly, "Yes, Chairman! I promise not to reveal any information about the potion."
Shen Feng nodded with satisfaction and then said, "You continue to fight in the combat team for now. After we recapture Luzhou, I will arrange for you to form a team separately, and you will be the leader!"
Guo Pinming heard the grand promises Shen Feng made, but he did not agree. Instead, he said through gritted teeth, "Chairman, I am very grateful for your appreciation. However, zombies killed my entire family. I will kill zombies to avenge them for the rest of my life, so I don't want to leave the combat team."
"A true man of character. I believe everyone shares the same deep hatred for zombies. Since you insist, I will let you stay in the combat team and allow you to shine in a suitable position. Of course, I will also promote you. Is that okay?" Shen Feng said quickly.
Shen Feng only wanted to test Guo Pinming's future plans, but he found that the other party's hatred for zombies was extremely severe, almost as if he wanted to kill all the zombies in the world. Therefore, he had to continue arranging for Guo Pinming to stay in the combat team. However, Shen Feng was also relieved, as Guo Pinming seemed to have no ambitions.
When he came to see Guo Pinming, Shen Feng had actually prepared for the worst. If Guo Pinming's ambition had been revealed, he might have had to kill him. As for the superpowers he obtained, they could be handled by Yu Renshu, who could transfer superpowers from superpowered individuals.
Now, Guo Pinming only wanted to kill zombies, which made Shen Feng certain that this guy had no ambitions. So, he let it be. Anyway, Chang Jianyi still had a tube of green potion, which was perfect for his senior sister to take, allowing her to gain superpowers as well.
After Guo Pinming left, Chang Jianyi naturally sat on Shen Feng's lap, holding the superpower potion and examining it. She said softly, "If there's any difference between this potion and ordinary evolution potions, it's simply that the materials are different. It's made from the brains of command zombies. Does this mean that as long as there are command zombie brains, superpowers can be artificially created?"
Shen Feng hugged his senior sister's slender waist, smelling the fragrance of her hair, and said softly, "Senior sister, you can also drink the potion, and then you will gain superpowers. Why envy others?"
Chang Jianyi reluctantly put down the test tube and said, "Ah Feng, I want to drink it now, but if I drink it, I'll likely fall into a coma for six or seven days. Missiles will be launched tomorrow, and then we'll start recapturing Luzhou. At such a time, how can I rest assured to drink the potion?"
In the past six days, Shen Feng had been using his ability to identify polluted water sources. Now, most of the zombies had lost their ability to move. Moreover, the missiles that headquarters had decided to support were about to be launched. At such a critical juncture, any slight mistake could lead to a battle. Chang Jianyi knew she didn't have much time to sleep.
Shen Feng held his senior sister and sat in his seat. He truly felt helpless about the current situation. He had to admit that he couldn't do without his senior sister's help. It was fine if his senior sister didn't appear for a short time, but if she was absent for a long time, chaos would ensue in the base's management. The time for his senior sister to drink the potion would have to be postponed.
"Then let's wait until after we recapture Luzhou. We'll definitely have some free time then. For now, we can only wait for the missile launch and deal with the zombie king!" Shen Feng said with some emotion.
Chang Jianyi suddenly felt Shen Feng's arm around her tighten, and Shen Feng's breathing behind her became heavier. Her face immediately flushed, and she said, "This is the office, don't be so intimate. It's not good if someone sees us."
"Then let's go back to the bedroom." Shen Feng naturally knew that the office was more stimulating, but since his senior sister was reserved, they would have to go back to the bedroom. There was still some time before dark, but Shen Feng had become impatient.
...
The missile was scheduled to launch at seven o'clock in the morning. Yang Chang and others all came to the radio to await instructions. Shen Feng sat in the center, surrounded by others. When it was seven o'clock, a voice came from the radio: "Luzhou Self-Aid Base, the missile is about to launch. Please take cover and do not approach the city center hotel. Launch countdown, ten, nine, eight..."
Upon hearing the voice from the radio, the people from the Self-Aid Base became excited. Everyone was looking forward to the arrival of the missile. As long as the missile successfully hit the hotel, the command zombie would surely die, and then everyone could smoothly recapture the urban area of Luzhou.
At this moment, Shen Feng asked Yang Chang, "Are the cameras you arranged ready?"
Yang Chang made an OK gesture and said, "I've already installed cameras in the buildings near the hotel, ensuring that we can capture the moment the missile lands. You can wait to watch the replay of the missile. I really wonder about the power of this missile. I hope it can kill hundreds of thousands of zombies."
"It's not a nuclear warhead, how can it have such power? I think it will generally just blow up the hotel, and it's unlikely to cause particularly heavy casualties. It can kill zombies within a few dozen meters, which is about right," Zhou Xiaoxiao said helplessly.
Yang Chang smiled awkwardly. He felt that he had watched too many movies and always felt that missiles should have great power. A single missile could destroy a city, and only then could it be called a real missile. But in reality, only a nuclear warhead could destroy a city with one missile; ordinary missiles did not have such power.
Shen Feng said confidently at this moment, "We don't need to destroy so many zombies, just killing the zombie king is enough. The remaining zombies are basically soft-footed shrimps, and most of them can't even stand up. As long as the zombie king's command is gone, we will definitely recapture Luzhou."
Suddenly, Luo Qing ran in from outside the dam and said, "It's raining, it's raining outside!"
Upon hearing this report, Yang Chang was unconcerned and said, "Anyway, the survivors already have antibodies, so it doesn't matter if it rains. As long as the people in the base are careful not to get wet, we can just wait here for good news."
Shen Feng stretched his body and smiled, "Let the combat team gather, everyone go to the dam to enjoy the scenery. If nothing unexpected happens, we can start recapturing Luzhou today. Then, everyone can leave here and return to our city."
Everyone quickly responded, and over a thousand people came to the dam to watch the distant city. No one brought an umbrella, letting the rain fall on them. Shen Feng stood at the front, looking at the distant city, feeling a sense of relief. For over a month, he had been working hard for Luzhou. Now, with the missile killing the zombie king, the war could end quickly.
However, Chang Jianyi prepared a raincoat and draped it over Shen Feng, whispering, "Don't be stubborn. If you catch a cold, what will you do?"
Shen Feng smiled and let his senior sister put on the raincoat for him. Then others also started putting on raincoats or umbrellas in twos and threes. After all, a large portion of the combat team were ordinary people. They were caught in the rain earlier because the chairman was also in the rain, but now that the chairman was also seeking shelter, there was no need for them to be stubborn.
Shen Feng felt a little regretful. After all, with the zombie king's brain, he could make two bottles of superpower potion and directly gain two superpowered subordinates. But now that the missile was about to bomb, he probably wouldn't be able to find the zombie king's brain.
Everyone waited for more than half an hour before they saw a small black dot appear through the clouds in the distance. In an instant, the people on the dam all cheered. Everyone knew that the tiny black dot was the missile, and the black dot was heading towards the city center.
"Ah..." The people on the dam were cheering continuously. The people in the base heard the cheers and hurried out to watch. They had all heard about the missile, so they were guessing if the missile was coming now.
Many people came out to watch. Although the bombing location was in the city center, they could basically see nothing from here, but everyone was still willing to shade their eyes and look towards the city center. While looking, they always imagined if the missile would come and Luzhou would be peaceful.
Children also wanted to go out and watch, but the adults did not allow the children to stand outside, scolding them to return to the shelters to hide from the rain. The children could only stand at the entrance of the shelters and look into the distance, hoping to see the shocking scenes described in books.
"We must kill these zombies and take back our city." Chu Yangtian couldn't see the distance. He just stared blankly at the sky, his heart filled with anticipation. As long as the zombies could be eliminated, he could die with no regrets.
Since the zombie outbreak, the entire world had been suffering from the threat of zombies. Humanity's excellent firepower could only be effective when gathered together. However, facing low-intelligence and inhuman zombies, humanity had been fighting back. Luzhou was just one example of resistance. There were still many humans, regardless of skin color or class, who were fighting fiercely against zombies. Now, with the support of missiles in Luzhou, it meant that the humans in Luzhou would achieve final victory!
Shen Feng watched as the black dot that appeared from the horizon broke through the clouds and then drew a white trajectory in the sky. He knew the missile had arrived.
The missile, carrying the hopes of the people in the base, began to descend. Its trajectory had long been calculated. Now, the missile was about to fall to the ground with everyone's expectations, unleashing humanity's intense hatred for zombies. Why did zombies appear? Why did zombies harm humans? Why did zombies destroy humanity's originally beautiful lives? Why did zombies do so many wicked things!
The missile's tail flame drew a white trajectory in the air and finally fell at the city center. The line of sight of the crowd was blocked by tall buildings, but they still looked in the direction of the city. Then, a strong light appeared in the city center, and smoke billowed upwards. Two seconds later, a huge explosion reached everyone's ears: "Boom—" The crowd cheered as they looked at the rising smoke in the distance.
Everyone believed that under the attack of the missile, the base would achieve ultimate victory against the zombies!
"We won, we won!" Yang Chang couldn't contain his excitement and started cheering. The entire base also began to cheer. Everyone's faces were filled with smiles. They knew that taking back their city was happening today!
Shen Feng also showed a smile. More than a month had passed, and it was now late autumn. Winter was approaching. Now, everyone could finally return to their own city. As long as the zombies were dealt with, everyone would no longer have to worry about the threat of zombies.
The entire base was in a daze. They knew what the appearance of the missile meant. It meant the zombie king would be killed, and the zombies would be leaderless from now on. They had basically lost their combat effectiveness, meaning everyone would successfully recapture their city and no longer have to live in shelters or face a precarious life.
