Lord of Illusions City
Chapter 414 The Journey Home
Seeing Nicholas's expression, Li Chenzhou couldn't help but ask.
“He said…”
Grizzly couldn't help but swallow, pointed at the Devourer arm, and then at the screen:
“He said these two are one body, which means, the arm you brought back was cut off from that fossil!”
To Grizzly's surprise, after hearing his words, Li Chenzhou didn't immediately jump up and shout impossible. Instead, he frowned and looked at the fossil on the screen, as if thinking about something.
“No… Boss! You believe it?”
Grizzly stared dumbfounded at Li Chenzhou.
“In this world, what else is impossible?”
Li Chenzhou looked at the screen and said:
“Besides… we are leaving here soon, so whether they are one body or not, it doesn't have much to do with us!”
After speaking, Li Chenzhou looked at Nicholas and said:
“Tell Nicholas to use this biological laboratory to study that arm. I need all the information about that arm!”
This warship originally came with biological research facilities. Nicholas is a PhD in biology and the director of this biological laboratory. That's why his teacher sent him the picture of the fossil!
“Okay!”
Grizzly nodded.
He knew that Li Chenzhou probably knew something, but since Li Chenzhou didn't say it, he wouldn't ask.
Walking out of the laboratory, Li Chenzhou came to the warship's watchtower, just standing there, quietly watching the city in the distance…
After nearly four hundred people worked hard for a whole day, the warship had a lot more supplies. In addition, the other warship was dismantled to almost just an empty shell, and all usable parts were removed by Mike and his men.
Anyway, there was enough space on the warship to place these things. It was like bringing it along for nothing. In addition, there were two armed helicopters on the warship for reconnaissance, which Li Chenzhou also kept.
Although the air is a restricted area for humans, these armed helicopters that can rely on the warship can be kept as spares, and may be used someday.
The other warship also had such a helicopter, but this thing took up too much space, so Li Chenzhou simply gave up on it.
In fact, the other warship originally had two armed helicopters, but before, Mike and the others wanted to use the helicopter to scout the city. As a result, the helicopter was destroyed by a huge bird not long after takeoff, and the pilot was killed. So, Mike and the others never had any more ideas about the helicopter.
That night, everyone had a good rest, while Li Chenzhou took the people James sent him into the city, because he promised James to train these people well.
James now understood the importance of combat experience, so the meaning of what he said to Li Chenzhou before was actually to let Li Chenzhou take them to find zombies.
However, Li Chenzhou didn't know where those strengthened zombies in this city were hiding, so he told James to try his best.
For the whole night, Li Chenzhou kept wandering around the city with those people, and incidentally collecting supplies. Unfortunately, after wandering around for the whole night, they didn't hide their tracks or anything. They just drove with their headlights on, arrogantly looting everywhere in the city, but still no zombies appeared.
In the early morning, Li Chenzhou returned with those people. He couldn't do anything if he didn't find zombies. In short, it was considered a completion of his promise to James.
In the next two days, they were still inspecting the warship and preparing supplies. With Mike around, everything became simple.
Mike was very familiar with his warship. The load, fuel, accessories, and personnel were all arranged in an orderly manner. He even took out a map and studied the route with Li Chenzhou.
Now that all communications were cut off, the navigation naturally failed. Even the warship's navigation system couldn't work because it lost the assistance of satellite positioning! To cross the sea back to the East, they could only rely on the captain's experience and nautical charts.
When the last night of preparation for departure arrived, Li Chenzhou and the others had a carnival at the port. James also came. He hadn't shown his face before, not because he didn't want to, but because he couldn't.
He also wanted to take advantage of the time before Li Chenzhou left to contact him for a while longer, hoping to get more benefits. This was not selfishness, but James wanted to strive for stronger power for his base.
However, Henry Town was being rebuilt, and so many bases were all mixed together, James didn't dare to leave at all. The new base represented new power. Among the other bases, there were many people with status equivalent to James.
If James was not around all the time, then when he went back again, it would not necessarily be up to him to decide what happened in Henry Town!
Even now, James's position was not completely stable, but because Li Chenzhou was leaving, he had to come, because he wanted to see how those people he had given to Li Chenzhou were doing now.
If they really all became ability users, as Li Chenzhou promised, then his position would be completely stabilized after he returned, because these people were all his loyal subordinates!
That night, although it was a farewell to Li Chenzhou, James did not indulge as much as last time, at least he didn't drink himself under the table.
“Li! I know I can't keep you, so I can only wish you a smooth journey. Go for it and take back the planet that belongs to us!”
James raised his glass and said, looking at Li Chenzhou.
Li Chenzhou's work made James very satisfied. He not only fulfilled his promise, but even those few people that James stuffed in also got the evolution potion from Li Chenzhou.
Although they didn't encounter zombies in the end, at least they were all ability users now, and there were even level three and level two ability users. This was definitely a huge leap for James's strength, enough for him to suppress all the different voices in the town!
“James, I said, we all have our own responsibilities, so let's all work hard together, for survival!”
Li Chenzhou also raised his glass and clinked it with James, saying.
“For survival!”
“For survival!”
Grizzly and the others also raised their glasses or wine bottles together and said loudly. Then, everyone drank it all in one gulp…
The next morning, Li Chenzhou's warship finally set sail, and amidst the farewells of James and others, it slowly sailed away, eventually disappearing on the horizon, embarking on the journey home!
James looked at the warship with some disappointment, until it completely disappeared, then he turned around, took his people into the car, and returned to the base.
No one knew that just as Li Chenzhou's warship had just set sail, on the top of the parliament building, a one-armed man looked at the sea with a cold expression, watching the warship sail away…
