Chen Ling thought for a moment and confessed, "It's different. In fact, our three teams launched an operation tonight to counter these Hunters, intending to use our numerical advantage to eliminate some and expand our advantage... Unfortunately, we failed."

Su Changxing assumed it was an accident for these Security Bureau people to encounter that "Tailor," never expecting it was planned, and deliberated, "Did you lose many people?"

Chen Ling had two long wrinkles between his nose and cheeks, giving him a more profound appearance. His long hair was tied at the back of his head, giving him an impression of an ancient warrior, and he said calmly:

"Over a hundred have died, half of them Superpower Users. We now have less than fifty survivors. And according to our estimates, tonight, maybe one-tenth of people in this area will die at the hands of the Hunters."

Su Changxing felt a tinge of unusual sensation in his heart; the retreat of these Security Bureau people meant the departure of the greatest resistance force, leaving the rest to be lambs for slaughter.

Suddenly, he felt a bit concerned about Huang Biao and others' situation. Currently, it looks like any residential base could be attacked by Hunters, and once attacked, there's mostly only one outcome.

He took out his phone to send a message.

Please call me a good person: How are you faring now?

Heartless Beast: Still okay, we found two Mysterious Shops, currently on our way back to base. Be careful, I've seen multiple bases attacked on the forum.

Luckily, Huang Biao and their base haven't been attacked.

Meanwhile, Su Changxing also felt a slight sense of powerlessness; oftentimes, he seemed to only be able to look after himself, merely struggling to survive.

Flames danced in the night sky, and zombies surged towards this direction, gradually forming a large Undead Tide around.

"Tailor" faced the flying flames without dodging or flinching. Several extremely fine red threads flew in the night sky, forcibly slicing the incoming fireballs to pieces, keeping the explosions away from his body.

Such level of attack posed no significant threat to him, but the blazing flames would attract large numbers of zombies, even an Undead Tide.

The zombies fell one after another in front of the "Tailor," even for him facing such a large number was hard to bear.

The "Tailor" showed a rigid smile on his face, he decided to change the strategy for hunting prey, perhaps not directly chasing, but catching them when they returned to their nest instead.

Afterwards, he turned around and walked away, escaping the encirclement of the Undead Tide, vanishing into the boundless darkness.

A man with cracked lips, charcoal-black hands with sparks, covered in wounds, ran quickly down the street, seemingly fleeing for his life, with raging flames behind.

He noticed the terrifying Hunter didn't chase him, his expression relaxed a bit.

He repeatedly used flames in different locations to incite zombies, hindering the Hunter's pursuit, ensuring there were comparatively fewer zombies on this street, facilitating his escape.

This Hunter was extremely terrifying.

Several times he almost perished at the hands of this Hunter, fortunately blessed by heaven.

"Seems like I've shaken him off, hm, that's the best I can do now."

The man glanced behind and turned to run towards the nearest base, planning to stay there overnight and leave this area with his team tomorrow.

By now, he was exhausted, having extensively used his Superpower multiple times, pushing his body to its limits, with flesh and blood on his arms nearly carbonized.

"The closest should be Chen Ling's base, which is a very hidden base, shouldn't be a big problem."

The man licked his parched lips, swiftly running toward the target direction.

He had reached his limit after circling for so long, if targeted by that Hunter again, he would most likely be killed.

Su Changxing and others hadn't rested long at the base.

Chen Ling looked at his phone, with a hint of joy on his face, said, "Captain Qin is fine, he is on his way to our base."

Captain Qin?

Su Changxing speculated that he might be Chen Ling's superior, asked, "Is this your team's captain?"

Chen Ling thought for a while and said solemnly, "Deputy captain, our captain sacrificed himself just tonight, so I guess he is the captain?"

Su Changxing reckoned this three-team captain probably died while besieging the "Tailor." Such a strange Ability is hard to offset just with sheer numbers.

How many go, how many die.

This should also be the reason for heavy losses in the three teams.

Thus...

Su Changxing pondered and asked, "Is your deputy captain a Fire Ability User?"

Chen Ling was slightly stunned, said, "Have you seen him? He is indeed a Flame Superpower User, probably the most formidable Fire Ability User in our Security Bureau, even surpassing our original captain's power after coming to this Doomsday World."

Su Changxing mostly figured things out, nodded and said, "Have indeed seen, had an encounter with him, more precisely, saw his Fireball. He did help me once."

Chen Ling continued, "The last message we got said he was engaging in a guerrilla fight with that powerful Hunter, the Hunter who alone killed seventy to eighty of our men."

Sun Xiaolin interjected, "Actually, we once thought Captain Qin was very likely dead, never expected he came back alive."

Zhang Daxi, who had been silent, suddenly said, "I and Xu Chu's Sweat encountered him too, during the time we were chased by that Hunter, we were saved by him."

Su Changxing nodded, said, "Being able to evade that Hunter's pursuit alone is truly impressive."

At least he wasn't sure he could shake off that "Tailor" without a flashbang, but Captain Qin managed to do it.

Huang Jixiang, speaking with a Sichuan accent, naturally said, "Certainly, Captain Qin is someone I've always admired."

He seemed to be a devoted admirer of Captain Qin.

Su Changxing put another Oreo in his mouth, picked up the water bottle and took a big gulp, drinking almost half.

Sun Xiaolin couldn't hold back saying, "Brother Su Changxing, could I have one of your cookies? Haven't eaten Oreos for a long time, want to taste."

Su Changxing noticed everyone around was watching him, took out another bag from his backpack, smiled and said, "I have another bag here, share it among yourselves."

Sun Xiaolin's eyes lit up, said, "Thank you, Brother Su, if you need anything in the future, just call me."

He took the Oreo, ripped it open, and stuffed one in his mouth, savoring the milky chocolate taste, with a hint of satisfaction on his face.

Huang Jixiang also took an Oreo without hesitation and started eating, said, "I also thank Brother Su."

Everyone in the room quickly divided and finished a bag of Oreos, Chen Ling also grabbed one to eat.

The joy of sharing food is simplest, easing the tense atmosphere in the room a bit.
