Lord of Illusions City

Chapter 668 Let's See in Three Days

"Anything is possible in this world!"

Li Chenzhou said with a smile,

"Okay, get some rest and recharge your batteries. This kind of thing shouldn't happen again."

"Okay!"

Hongli nodded. Then, he suddenly noticed some people standing outside by the vehicle and asked,

"What are they...?"

"I plan to..."

Li Chenzhou explained what had happened earlier,

"These are the ones who still believe in me and are willing to leave with me!"

Looking at the time, Li Chenzhou said,

"Five minutes. We'll leave in five minutes. Those who want to stay can do as they please!"

"Boss Li, can I say a few words to them?"

Hongli hesitated and said,

"I know their distrust hurts you, but... this is the Mo Shi (end of days) after all. Everyone is living cautiously. Plus, Wang Zifeng is quite the schemer. And Jin Yuan testified against you, so they believe you're the kind of demon who experiments on living people. You can't entirely blame them!"

"Alright! Go ahead!"

Li Chenzhou thought for a moment and nodded, agreeing,

"Just speak directly. Everyone in the base can hear you!"

"Okay!"

Hongli nodded and, after thinking for a moment, said loudly,

"Brothers and sisters of the base, this is Hongli. I was imprisoned in the water dungeon by Wang Zifeng. Jin Yuan and some other brothers were imprisoned with me.

"The rumors about Li Chenzhou's team were spread by Wang Zifeng to control the base and find a chance to kill Li Chenzhou. Because when he and his child were trapped in the city, it was Li Chenzhou's friend who saved him and sent him out of the city with a letter for Li Chenzhou.

"But on the way to deliver the letter, Wang Zifeng and his son encountered mutated beasts. His son died in the jaws of a mutated beast. So, Wang Zifeng felt that Li Chenzhou had killed his child because he had encountered the mutated beast while delivering a letter to Li Chenzhou. If he hadn't come to deliver the letter, his son wouldn't have died.

"But he didn't consider that if it hadn't been for Li Chenzhou's friend, he and his child would still be trapped in the zombie horde and wouldn't have escaped. Not only his child, but even Wang Zifeng would have died.

"But he completely ignores this. And to make you believe the rumor, he forced me and Jin Yuan to testify for him. Jin Yuan couldn't hold out and became Wang Zifeng's accomplice. You should all know this.

"Since Wang Zifeng came, he has gradually controlled the base. Jin Yuan, who was released later, is just his lackey, only the nominal leader of the base!

"Today, Li Chenzhou rescued me, and he also healed my injuries, allowing me to continue living. I won't say much more. Everyone knows what kind of person I am. I believe in Li Chenzhou, and I will leave with him.

"And if any of you still believe in me, please come with me. I can guarantee that Li Chenzhou's words can be realized. In the future, the Qing City base will definitely be the safest and most stable.

"I'm not begging you. I just don't want you to give up this opportunity. The ability users in this base are all dead. Who can lead this base? Who can protect this base? Think about it yourselves!

"Finally, let me remind you, you still have..."

At this point, Hongli looked at Li Chenzhou and gestured a ten with his hand. Li Chenzhou nodded, and Hongli continued,

"You have ten minutes. Those who want to leave together, come to our vehicle within ten minutes. Those who don't, take care of yourselves!!!"

After speaking, Hongli looked at the base, sighed, and sat down.

"You like Qing City?"

Looking at Hongli, Li Chenzhou smiled.

"Yes! I'm from Qing City. It's my hometown!"

Hongli nodded.

"Me too!"

Li Chenzhou nodded,

"Then, you'll be in charge of the Qing City base from now on!"

Li Chenzhou had been wondering who he should leave behind at the Qing City base. At least, the leaders of the bases they had passed through before were all trustworthy.

Of course, Ding Ning was an exception. He didn't want to leave, and Li Chenzhou didn't want to force him. As for the others, Li Chenzhou had been hesitating.

Because he was from Qing City, he valued the Qing City base. Especially since many of the survivors around the city were brought out of the city by them, so he was quite familiar with them, such as the orphans from Tianya Orphanage.

Therefore, the people left here must be the most trustworthy and capable!

Now seeing Hongli, Li Chenzhou felt that Hongli was the best choice because he had experienced a real test. There was no need for Duan Lei to judge. To be able to stand by him to this extent, wouldn't such a person be trustworthy?

As for ability, Hongli was chosen by Duan Lei after all. Li Chenzhou believed in Duan Lei's judgment. Moreover, the new base was a war fortress with the assistance of an AI. Management would definitely be very easy.

"Me?"

Hearing Li Chenzhou's words, Hongli was a little surprised. Then, he shook his head and smiled wryly,

"Forget it. You choose a leader, and I can assist. But to let me be the leader... If it turns out like this base again, I'll be too ashamed to face you!"

"Hahahaha! Don't worry. First, you are already a level three ability user. No one in this base can threaten you anymore, as long as you are vigilant!"

Li Chenzhou laughed,

"Besides, the new base is different from this one. It has permissions. In the base, you are the master. With your ability, there will definitely be no problems!"

As he spoke, Li Chenzhou changed the view outside the window to a map of the surrounding area, pointing to it,

"I can't leave too many people behind. Actually, I have the most acquaintances around the Qing City base. But each of you must be able to stand alone. Because, do you see these cities? I want to conquer them one by one and build a large base in each of these cities to accommodate all the survivors!"

"That's not so easy!"

Hongli was shocked,

"Even for those near Qing City, it won't be easy to annex all the bases. Wu Village, the prison, the war reserve, and the other bases over there should be no problem. Their leaders still remember your kindness!

"But for other bases, their leaders probably won't give up their power so easily! This is the end of days. Having people in your hands is the capital to survive!"

"Well... I think you'll have a new perspective in three days!"

Li Chenzhou patted Hongli on the shoulder and smiled mysteriously...
