Chapter 99

Having learned from the incident with the girl in the green dress, Chen Luo decided that from now on, new members would not be allowed to stay in the villa area.

They would have to find accommodations outside until they were officially accepted. When the numbers grew, only elite members would be granted access to the villa area.

First, Chen Luo arranged for the newly joined Earth and Nature elemental members to have a meal and then start fortifying the base. T

hey began by constructing a 1.5-meter-high, one-meter-thick earthen wall near the entrance of the compound.

This wall served a dual purpose. It could withstand zombie attacks, and during conflicts with other survivors, members could safely cast spells from behind it.

They would prepare their spells and then crouch down after throwing them.

Could the enemy easily reach the members behind the earth wall?

Not according to Chen Luo, who believed that they would need to reach at least Level Four to attempt that.

As long as members didnt have the misfortune of exposing themselves and getting shot in the head, there wasnt much danger.

This makeshift wall didnt need to be very long, just thirty meters, but it had substantial thickness.

Chen Luo observed the number of zombies near the base and decisively instructed the members to stop killing them. He didnt explain the reason, but the zombies would evolve to Level Two in two days.

If they killed all the Level One zombies, they would have to take risks by venturing into areas with more concentrated zombies or traveling to remote, less populated areas.

He hoped they would accept this cruel reality soon because starting the day after tomorrow, the zombies would be on par with them, making it even more challenging.

In the evening, Mi Li lay in Chen Luos arms and asked a question.

Why didnt we clear out the zombies earlier, and it would have been best if everyone worked together? I calculated it, with an average of 20 zombies killed per person, we could have cleared them all, Mi Li said.

Even if not everyone was united, if one person could kill a hundred, it would be sufficient. The zombies will evolve, so its even more crucial to eliminate them all before they finish evolving, she continued.

Chen Luo remained silent for a moment, then shook his head. Thats just your perspective. Up until now, there are still survivors who are too afraid to kill zombies. Besides, gathering everyone together to kill them all would be risky. If we encounter a higher-level mutant, it could be the end for all of us.

Mi Li sighed and seemed tired. Slowly, she fell asleep in Chen Luos arms. However, Chen Luo couldnt sleep. What he told Mi Li was only a partial reason.

He understood the future process, and he knew it was necessary to let the zombies evolve. If they were all wiped out, there wouldnt be enough high-level crystals for rapid human evolution. They would be defenseless when powerful creatures arrived.

However, Chen Luos conscience troubled him, so he made up for the missing thousand words.
