 n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Lü Bao's heart started to tighten.

His confident and triumphant expression turned complex.

"What's going on? What is this Alex doing?! Why haven't they brought the Third Squad over yet?! We should have arrived long ago for this short distance!"

"Damn it! What's happening? Could Peng Le have found out?!"

"Damn it! Why haven't they come yet! What the hell is Alex doing? He's really useless!"

While Lü Bao was cursing and anxious, Alex and Peng Le had already infiltrated the small town. Not only that, the large team of mutated warriors from the City of Darkness had also appeared in the town.

With muffled groans, one by one, Lü Bao's ambush team members were knocked unconscious, then carried out and thrown onto the prisoner transport vehicles.

Almost forty powerful mutated individuals roamed through the small town, continuously harvesting the members of the Second Squad ambushed there.

In the time it took for Lü Bao to complain.

Except for the room where Lü Bao was, everyone else had been captured without missing a single person by the mutated warriors under Alex's command and locked in the prisoner transport vehicles.

No one noticed anything.

The two soldiers preparing for battle with Lü Bao in the room, holding sniper rifles or machine guns, remained unaware.

Just when Lü Bao was about to lose his patience completely, finally, the convoy of the Third Squad approached the ambush point!

Lü Bao picked up the walkie-talkie and reported, "Lü Qi! They're here! The big plan is in motion!"

With that said, Peng Le personally picked up a machine gun, excitedly aiming at the approaching convoy.

Switching the walkie-talkie to a different channel, Lü Bao ordered, "Wake the hell up, all of you! We're about to catch an old turtle in the jar!"

"Bang!" Just as he finished speaking, the door behind him was kicked open.

"Who?" Lü Bao turned abruptly. "Alex!! What are you doing here? Didn't I tell you..."

Before he could finish his sentence, Peng Le and Shen Han respectfully appeared behind Alex.

Accompanying them was a fully armed squad of soldiers.

The black muzzles of their guns were all pointed at Lü Bao and the others.

"Peng Le!! Shen Han!! You... you conspired against me!!" Lü Bao's face turned pale. "Alex! You dare to scheme against me?!"

At this moment, how could he not understand?

The person he had prepared to ambush had ambushed him instead!

He had been deceived!

Everything Alex did yesterday was just an act!

"Peng Le! Alex might not know, but do you pretend not to know? If you dare touch me, my uncle will definitely not spare you!!" After a few minutes of panic, Lü Bao quickly calmed down and threatened Peng Le.

However, Peng Le, who stood respectfully next to Alex, was like a lifeless corpse, showing no reaction whatsoever. He just followed behind Alex with his head lowered, resembling a loyal dog. On the other side, Shen Han stood respectfully with her head bowed, also by Alex's side.

"What... what's going on? Peng Le! Shen Han! You... both have joined forces with Alex?" Lü Bao looked at Alex in horror.

After seeing the large group of unfamiliar soldiers appearing behind, he finally realized that things were going south.

However, it was already too late for everything. A figure flashed, and Lü Bao was knocked unconscious.

"Bring all these people and those captured from the first squad back, lock them in the Forbidden Soul Demon House. Also, have Pipi and others come to see me!" Alex commanded to the members behind him, including Gun Dream and Blood Witch.

"Yes, master!"

Before capturing the second squad, the first squad, led by Shen Han, had already been sent into the ambush circle. Both the first and second squads were annihilated, captured entirely by Alex's squad of mutated warriors, without a single one slipping through.

The members of the first squad, even when locked in the Forbidden Soul Demon House, couldn't comprehend why their comrades, who had gone through life and death together, suddenly betrayed them. And their beloved captain, Shen Han, why would she betray them! As for the members of the second squad, they remained unaware of what happened until their consciousness was completely eliminated, turning them into puppets.

...

Three hours later, the third squad, along with the convoy of the first and second squads, simultaneously arrived at the base shelter. The convoy stopped outside the gate of the second squad's base, and Shen Han, Lü Bao, and Peng Le got down from one of the vehicles.

They stood respectfully on the side.

Shen Han took a step forward and opened the side door of a light armored vehicle.

Alex strolled out of the light armored vehicle in a grand manner.

"Capture all the remaining people in the second base for me!" Alex ordered.

The puppet warriors, led by Lü Bao, aggressively raided their own nest.

Alex, on the other hand, unreservedly moved into the best-facilitated base of the first squad.

In the office of Guangbei Jia.

Everyone, including Guangbei Jia, stared dumbfoundedly at the unfolding scenes on the screen!

At this moment, all these people were utterly bewildered!

"What... what's going on?" Shen Han's father, Shen Xudong, looked inexplicably at his daughter standing respectfully beside Alex on the screen. "Han, what does this mean?!" "How did these three end up together?! And, all three squads are following Alex's orders? What's going on?" If Peng Le sided with Alex, they could somewhat understand. But Shen Han had always been a core figure among them and was absolutely loyal to Guangbei Jia. How could she suddenly side with an outsider? That was not the end of their shock!

What astonished them even more was that Lü Bao had also joined Alex!

"What the hell is going on?! What are they up to?!" Guangbei Jia exclaimed as if she had seen a ghost, feeling a dizzy spell and nearly fainting on the spot.

However, both Classical K and Shen Xudong were equally puzzled, unable to comprehend how everything had unfolded into this situation!

...

At the same time, in Lü Weijiang's office, a similar scene was playing out. The astonishing footage on the surveillance screen left everyone in the office dumbfounded.

Ping Deyuan's glasses fell to the ground, shattering into pieces. "What is Lü Bao up to? Didn't he say he was ambushing the third squad? Didn't he claim he could absorb the third squad? Why is he mingling with Shen Han and Peng Le?!"

Lü Weijiang, in disbelief, stared at the screen and slammed the table, demanding an answer. On the other hand, the youngest among them, Ping Qiyun, remained calm. Pointing at the screen, he said coldly, "It seems both Lü Bao and Shen Han have defected... and they all seem to have sided with this newcomer, Alex..."

With Ping Qiyun's revelation, everyone stared fixedly at the footage on the surveillance screen. Indeed, including Peng Le, the three of them stood respectfully on the side, with Alex commanding them imperiously in the center.

"What the hell is going on?! What are these people up to?!" Lü Weijiang roared in frustration, echoing Guangbei Jia's sentiments.

While people in the base shelter were still reeling from the changes in the material collection team, Pipi was sitting in the helicopter piloted by Si Ruoqing. Continuously using wolf howls, Pipi attracted a large number of mutated zombies from the city of Jiangcheng. The ever- growing horde of zombies began converging towards Pipi's location.

Leading the charge at the forefront of the zombie horde was the Despoiling Tyrant, commanding a legion of thousands of zombies.

"Roar!!!" The enraged roar of the Despoiling Tyrant, coupled with its imposing presence, prompted the massive group of zombies trailing behind to respond with similar roars.
