Zombie Apocalypse: Reborn With A Farming Space novel Chapter 872

Chapter 872: The Herders ( 5 )

"S-sir, are you really giving this to us?" a young woman asked.

Hearing her question, Cheng Rui raised his eyebrows and asked her back, "What else?"

The young woman hesitated for a while before finally stepping forward to pick up a bottle of water and a pack of biscuits.

She opened the water and drank it. Seeing that no one stopped her, she opened the biscuits and started eating.

When the others saw her eating, they finally gathered the courage to take the supplies. Perhaps they had been treated like livestock for too long; they behaved like trained animals now. 𝕗𝐫𝐞𝕖𝕨𝐞𝗯𝚗𝕠𝘃𝐞𝚕.𝐜𝗼𝚖

Each of them only took a bottle of water and a small pack of biscuits. The Phantom Team didn’t urge them to take more and simply watched from the sidelines.

After Pei Yixie finished distributing the clothes, she returned and said, "Brother Sikai, these people are raised here as livestock. Those men were the herders."

"Did you find any other information?" Li Sikai asked.

"Those women’s thoughts were messy, but I got the location of the mastermind. They live in a factory area a few kilometers from here," Pei Yixie nodded.

"Let’s go."

Before leaving, Feng Yun took out some medicine for injuries and said, "Leave and find a safe place to hide."

The survivors watched them leave and burst into tears. They thought they would end up as food for those devils. Fortunately, heaven didn’t abandon them and sent these people to save them.

After they ate some biscuits and recovered their energy, the survivors helped the abused women and left the train station through another tunnel. Following this tunnel, they would be able to reach the 4th Colony.

Half an hour later, Li Sikai and his team found the factory where the mastermind was staying.

From a distance, the factory looked ordinary. Besides the metal gate wrapped in barbed wire, there were no other safety precautions against zombies or mutants.

Without Qin Luzi, they didn’t know how many people were inside or if there were any hidden dangers.

Cheng Rui glanced at the surroundings and said, "Brother Sikai, there shouldn’t be any zombies or mutants in this area."

"Cheng Rui, how do you know?" Pei Yixie asked curiously.

Hearing her words, he let out a chuckle and asked in return, "Didn’t you notice? Besides the zombies trapped in the building and the mutant wolves we killed before, we didn’t encounter any zombies or mutants."

When she heard this, Pei Yixie finally realized it. Before she joined the Phantom Team, she had traveled through many places, and even in small villages, she still encountered zombies.

Li Sikai thought for a moment and said, "Let’s go inside."

Pei Yixie nodded and continued, "They might be raising mutant beasts like livestock, and those people locked in the train station are the mutant beasts’ food."

Li Sikai frowned and considered this possibility. "If that’s the case, they must have a special place to raise the mutant beasts."

As soon as he said this, Feng Yun took out the Thirteen Colonies’ map. Holding it, he said, "Brother Sikai, in the Second Colony, the mountain near the city center is the best place to raise mutant beasts."

"It’s near the city where they keep the survivors captive. There is also a huge forest on the mountain. Besides this place, another location is the mountain ridge on the western border. But that place is too far from the train station."

Li Sikai checked the map and said, "Let’s check this factory first. We need to gather more information before informing the Captain."

The members nodded and replied in unison, "Understood."

The office building was empty, so they moved on to the dormitories. Before they even entered the dormitory gate, they noticed several people patrolling on a nearby watchtower.

Surrounding the dormitory area was a 3-meter-high wall with barbed wire on top. Every 100 meters, there was a 10-meter-tall watch tower. From afar, the place resembled a prison.

For ordinary people, with this level of security, the possibility of escape was near zero. But for Li Sikai and his team, it was no different from a kindergarten-level obstacle.

He made some hand gestures, and the members nodded. They split up and sneaked into the dormitory from several directions.
