The result was that only two of the three bombs detonated, leaving one undetonated. This significantly reduced the intended lethality.

There was no choice, everyone had to resort to firearms to deal with the remaining zombies. Fortunately, they still had some bullets left, and they quickly cleared all the zombies on the road. Xiang Hongbin urged the driver to rush through immediately.

At that moment, the previously undetonated bomb exploded! Coincidentally, the bomb was right beside their vehicles.

The three vehicles were almost flipped over.

If it weren’t for the fact that these were explosion-proof military vehicles and they were some distance away from the bomb, the squad might have been completely wiped out there…

The sound of the bomb naturally attracted more zombies, but they had already cleared up the surrounding ones, and those from farther away would take some time to arrive. Xiang Hongbin and the others, enduring their dizziness, quickly retreated.

Ultimately, they made it back near the base before more zombies could swarm in. Only a dozen or so faster Mad Demon Zombies were following them, but the soldiers inside the base provided fire support and quickly dispatched them.

“…That’s the situation in detail.”

The soldier spoke with a hint of sadness in his voice.

After hearing the report, Wei Zhenguo pointed at Xiang Hongbin, his body trembling with anger.

“You, you—”

This was a tragedy that could have been avoided. They were already at their doorstep; why couldn’t they just hold out a bit longer instead of courting trouble?

Not only did they get Little Wu killed, but they nearly caused the death of the entire squad!

If it hadn’t been for the public setting, he would have already started scolding vociferously.

Commissioner Liu He, standing next to Wei Zhenguo, felt a mix of sadness and embarrassment. He had manufactured the custom bombs, and although he had mentioned they weren’t 100% reliable, one of the three had failed, and this probability was somewhat unacceptable.

Ren lie and Feng Ming’an, the two Commissioners, didn’t say much. Although this was a base matter, it was also an internal issue of the Security Army, and they felt it was inappropriate to intervene. But both looked deeply saddened, acknowledging each warrior who survived from the beginning of the apocalypse as a precious asset…

“Captain Xiang, everything has been accounted for…

Guo Chao cautiously handed a list to Xiang Hongbin for him to see.

Xiang Hongbin gave it a quick glance, swiftly signed his name, and then walked away into the rain without looking back.

“You all, go and get some rest!”

Wei Zhenguo looked at the other four soldiers and sighed.

“Yes Sir!”

The soldiers promptly saluted Wei Zhenguo, with one of them taking out a Zombie Core wrapped in a cloth from his backpack and handing it to Wei

Zhenguo.

“Squad Leader Wei, this is the Zombie Core…”

Wei Zhenguo took it, feeling its heavy weight, heavier than any Zombie Core he had seen before.

“Disperse!”

Wei Zhenguo waved his hand, and the onlookers hurriedly left.

Wang Tao was also preparing to leave, but Wei Zhenguo stopped him.

“Wang Tao, wait a moment.”

Wei Zhenguo gave him a look.

Wang Tao paused.

Han Rui nodded to Wang Tao and then left with Sun Weiguang and Ou

Yingying.

As they left, Wang Tao faintly heard Sun Weiguang complaining: ‘■Darling, did you come out looking for me? No? You… you don’t care about me! And here I was so worried about you…”

Wang Tao shook his head, then turned to Wei Zhenguo.

“Let’s go find Xiang Hongbin. We can’t forget about the serious business.” The “serious business” he was referring to was naturally the matter of Wang Tao becoming a Commissioner.

Commissioners Liu He, Ren Jie, and Feng Ming’an all looked curiously at Wang Tao; they had heard from Wei Zhenguo that Wang Tao was an Ability User. They had never seen an Ability User before…

“Would now be a good time to approach him?

Wang Tao frowned slightly.

just moments ago, the tension between Xiang Hongbin and Wei Zhenguo had been palpable. Xiang Hongbin was likely still angry or grieving, and it didn’t seem like the right time to approach.

“Don’t worry, he’s even more keen to see an Ability User than I am!

Since Wei Zhenguo assured it was fine, Wang Tao didn’t object, but he still expressed concern.

“Are you sure your injuries are okay?”

“Just scratches. Let’s go!”

Liu He pushed Wei Zhenguo’s wheelchair as they, along with Wang Tao, entered another building. Upon entering, they saw Xiang Hongbin smoking in a corner.

“What are you doing here? Do you want to continue to criticize me, or are you just here to laugh at my misery?”

Xiang Hongbin looked irritated.

Wei Zhenguo did not directly answer his question but instead pointed at Wang Tao and said:

“An Ability User, to become our base’s eighth Commissioner. Do you have any objections?”

“An Ability User?”

Xiang Hongbin was initially startled, then immediately ran over with excitement, staring intently at Wang Tao.

“Are you really an Ability User?”

Without any fuss, Wang Tao demonstrated his Ability.

Just like before, with a snap of his fingers, a visible Shockwave expanded from his fingertips. The range was not large, and it didn’t seem very powerful, but it was indeed a genuine Ability.

Wang Tao had many ways to invoke his Ability, but he thought this looked the coolest.

However, to his and everyone else’s surprise, Xiang Hongbin suddenly reached out, attempting to grab the Shockwave that Wang Tao had generated.

“Stop—”

Before Wang Tao’s shout could be fully voiced, Xiang Hongbin seemed to have caught some explosive material, as he was suddenly blown backwards.

Bang—

He sat on the ground with a thud, his face a picture of shock, and a trickle of blood escaped from his mouth..
