Chapter 775: Chapter 771: Sly and Sneaky Person_1

One day, Xu Haishui sought out Tang Ye, his eyes gleaming eerily.

"Boss, the Dead Knight Corps is adequately trained now. We’re proficient in all aspects. When are we launching an attack on the United District?"

As he spoke, his voice was thick with murderous intent. Now, he hated the United District with a passion. The Evolution Crystals housed in the warehouse were gathered painstakingly by him. Some of them were from zombies with special abilities. It made him uneasy to think of how he had to start from scratch again..

He couldn’t wait to lead the Dead Knight Corps on a full-scale slaughter in the United District.

Tang Ye squinted his eyes and shook his head. "The United District is not easy to handle to the best of my knowledge. Let’s wait for a while."

Xu Haishui was worried and blurted out immediately: "But..."

"I understand your concerns. Whatever they have taken will be returned tenfold, hundredfold in the future. But right now, I am not utterly confident. I don’t want the newly formed Dead Knight Corps to be squandered away so quickly."

Xu Haishui had not finished speaking when Tang Ye cut him off. His individual capabilities could indeed pose a challenge to the high-tech soldiers in the United District. However, in the post-apocalyptic world, strength is supreme, but not everything can be achieved solely by oneself. He wanted more. He wanted to annihilate the United District and annex it!

"The Dead Knight Corps has pioneered a new way of fighting. It won’t benefit much from more training – real-world experience is all that’s lacking."

Ah, Xu Haishui.. normally you’re quite clever. We don’t know the situation inside the United District. Would it be wise to just attack? Admittedly, the seven council members always compete with each other. But that’s internal strife. We’re outsiders. What if we attack and they unite against us? How many of our Corp would die then?"

Tang Ye was aware of this. Every individual in the United District was a force to reckon with. In their position, they won’t allow someone else of equal power to rise. Just like before the Apocalypse.. how could they allow the emergence of another permanent member of the council?

As a superpower in South China, the real strength of the United District was not as simple as it seemed. He might be a Level 7 zombie but he dare not be carelessly arrogant in front of such a large power.

Ultimately, evolution wasn’t exclusive to him in the post-apocalyptic world. Everyone has a chance for evolution and stronger abilities. In desperation, such a significant power can cause mutual destruction, which isn’t a thing they play around with.

However, considering the undercurrents within the United District and disunity among the seven council members, there isn’t much loyalty in this new world. If possible, Tang Ye might be able to annihilate all council members simultaneously, but how?

As soon as a council member is killed, the others would be the first to know. Then, those council members would be on guard, which would make it hard for even a Level 7 zombie to kill all the members.

If Tang Ye were one of the council members, hearing about other members being attacked and assassinated, he would probably keep all his armed troops around him. Even if he couldn’t withstand the attack of a Level 7 New Human, escaping shouldn’t be a problem.

"Alright, you go back first. The issue with the United District will be sorted out eventually. But the time is not now."

Tang Ye waved his hand, sending Xu Haishui away. Then he got up from the sofa, went to the window, and watched the riders who were flying freely in the sky on zombie vultures, plotting something in his mind.

Not long after, a group of Peace Party soldiers escorted a dishevelled man to the Peace Party base. He was announced. Tang Ye looked on curiously. Typically, such individuals would either belong to higher-level staff under Li Songhua or someone plotting against the Peace Party. This man, however, was unrecognizable to Tang Ye.

Curiosity piqued, Tang Ye went downstairs and stopped the group in Li’s Mansion. Frowning, he asked: "What happened to this fellow?"

"Oh, President!" The leading soldier was a little surprised to see Tang Ye. He then reported, "President, this man’s origins are unknown. He was loitering suspiciously around the prison, so we apprehended him. We thought that VP Xu might want to interrogate him."

Tang Ye nodded, then moved away the man’s messy hair, revealing a man. His clothes were so dirty that their original colour was indistinguishable, and his face was covered with old and new scars. He was also a new human, though he looked thoroughly dishevelled and miserable.

"What were you doing at the prison?" Tang Ye asked.

The man didn’t reply. He looked up at Tang Ye then quickly diverted his gaze, remaining silent.

Tang Ye snorted coldly, grabbed the man by his dirty collar and pulled it apart, revealing a tattered military uniform underneath. The style seemed familiar to Tang Ye but As the insignia section was missing, he didn’t recognise which military it represented.

"A military uniform?"

On seeing the military uniform, the soldier gasped instinctively, pressing the man down against the ground thinking he was a spy from another base.

"Who are you? Speak! Why did you come to Shiwuguan Base?"

The uniform obviously didn’t belong to the Shiwuguan Base, causing suspicion.

"Cough, cough.."

Tang Ye coughed a few times. Despite its severe damage, the style of the uniform was still visible. It was not the uniform of the United District, nor did it belong to Qinshan Base.

"Refuse to speak, eh? Judging by your appearance, it seems that your base isn’t doing well, huh? If you appeared at the prison, do you have someone locked up there that you want to see?"

Hearing Tang Ye’s words, the man’s body shook, but he still did not speak.

Tang Ye didn’t rush him. He said ominously: "If you don’t speak, I’ll kill everyone in the prison, leaving no one for you to find. How about that, tell me, what are you doing here?"

"You can’t do that!"

The instant Tang Ye finished his sentence, the man yelled: "If you kill the people inside, your Peace Party will be finished too. Don’t think that being a Level 6 New Human makes you invincible. Now, I am the only one who can save your Peace Party."

His words instantly angered the other soldiers, and they pressed harder, causing him to groan.

"What are you talking about?"

"Shut up!"

There was a hint of amusement in Tang Ye’s eyes. Curiously, he asked, "What could possibly cause the demise of our Peace Party?"

"Release me first. I initially didn’t want to tell you, but since you’ve captured me, I don’t mind telling."

The man’s voice trembled, clearly unable to withstand the force exerted by the several soldiers.

"Release him."

Tang Ye wasn’t worried about him escaping. It was impossible for a Level 2 New Human to escape in front of a Level 7 zombie.

Hearing this, the soldiers let go of him right away. His body relaxed and he took a deep breath.
