Chapter 129 Building a City

 

"Dad?!" Chu Zhen was shocked, and so were the other people present. The foreigners who understood Chinese were now doubting whether they had misheard or not.

 

These two were father and son?! Unbelievable!

 

Maybe it was just a quirk? But even so, it still went too far for an old man like him to do such things to a child!

 

"Can't you see that my face is fake?" Nie Yi was speechless at the way these people were looking at him like an animal.

 

He patted himself looking for makeup remover, but found none. He then looked around the bathroom and found a bottle of men's facial scrub to rub his face.

 

Previously he was badly burned and only recovered after signing a contract with Qi Jingchen. Since then, his skin was very delicate. After washing his face, everyone realized that he was only in his twenties.

 

Except for those who already knew their identities and those who had guessed their identities, everyone else breathed a sigh of relief. Although Qi Jingchen looked very young, Nie Yi only being in his twenties would make them into a more acceptable pair.

 

No, it should be said that Qi Jingchen's appearance was no longer on par with Nie Yi... It was really rare to have such good skin in the apocalypse.

 

Chu Zhen stared at Nie Yi for a while before suddenly asking, "You're Nie Yi?"

 

"You know me?" Nie Yi asked.

 

"I saw you once at a charity event before," Chu Zhen said. Before the apocalypse, he was also a rich second generation. That was why he was both a boyfriend of Yao Mengzhi and had talked to Nie Yi before.

 

However, Nie Yi had obviously forgotten about him.

 

At this moment, Shi Kun frowned tightly. He was not stupid. He saw that Nie Yi changed his face and understood that Nie Yi and the others were not using their real identity.

 

Others might not be able to detect it, but what about his Xiao Jiu? Or rather, was Yu Xuguang fake as well?

 

Shi Kun reached out to touch Yu Xuguang's face and found no signs of forgery. Then he suddenly looked at Yu Xuguang's chest.

 

Why did he feel like Yu Xuguang's chest had shrunk?

 

Shi Kun pushed it down, and the chest that had been supported by women's underwear immediately flattened...

 

"What are you doing?" Shi Shiqing's mouth twitched.

 

"He's a man?" Shi Kun asked.

 

"Yes," Shi Shiqing nodded.

 

Shi Kun suddenly remembered something. "Yu Xuguang... That name seems familiar..."

 

"He's the person who introduced the ability cultivation method." Shi Shiqing said. "We had no choice. You saw the situation in the S city safe zone. Yao Mengzhi was deceiving the public and turning them into something similar to zombies."

 

Shi Kun wasn't a particularly outstanding person. In fact, he had many shortcomings.

 

For example, he was born short. Although he wasn't fat, he was still discriminated against due to his height. Additionally, he wasn't steadfast in his beliefs. After hearing so much about the dark cult, he was tricked too.

 

But now he had clarity. His mind was even working double time. Although he used to believe in the dark god's religion, he stopped believing after seeing the existence of Qi Jingchen. Since this was the case, he had to figure out a way to benefit himself...

 

"You tricked me!" Shi Kun suddenly said.

 

"Sorry," one of Yu Xuguang's comrades apologized. They were all very moral people and felt bad.

 

"If our people who came with me to the S city safe zone aren't taken along, we might have no way out." Shi Kun felt relieved when he heard the apologies.

 

Everyone looked at Nie Yi. He promised, "We will take them along." There were already quite a few people with them, and a few more wouldn't hurt.

 

"My dad's safe zone is small, but many people live there. Can you find a way to protect them?" Shi Kun asked.

 

"If you're willing, your entire safe zone can move with us," Qi Jingchen replied.

 

"Thank you." Shi Kun had been holding his breath before, but now he released it. He was very content that Nie Yi and Qi Jingchen promised these two things.

 

As for Yu Xuguang... he couldn't help but feel sad, but he had already been through several breakups before. In fact, when he thought about it carefully, it wasn't that big of a deal.

 

Wasn't it just that the goddess he had been pursuing for some time turned out to be a man? It wasn't a big deal! This man was a celebrity, and being associated with him brought some benefits!

 

When Ma Yihong heard Nie Yi's words, she smiled. Could their safe zone follow them as well?

 

To be honest, there were too many people here, and there were too many zombies. It wasn't a suitable place for survival at all. They used to believe in the dark god and depended on the S city safe zone only because they wanted to obtain methods to fight against zombies. But if they could relocate to somewhere better, it would be great.

 

While everyone was mired in their own thoughts, Qi Jingchen washed his face and hands clean.

 

Although everyone had exclaimed at Nie Yi's beauty, it was still just beauty. On the other hand, Qi Jingchen was different.

 

Qi Jingchen's facial features individually weren't stunning, but when they were put together, he was extremely attractive, making people feel comfortable and wanting to get close to him.

 

They couldn't take their eyes off Qi Jingchen. Nie Yi had good skin, but Qi Jingchen was flawless!

 

And maybe it was because of his ability, but Qi Jingchen seemed to be glowing, making people want to worship him.

 

"Angel..." the foreign leader said again, thinking that Qi Jingchen was the most attractive person he had ever seen.

 

Everyone else thought the same, and for a while, Qi Jingchen became the center of attention.

 

Nie Yi couldn't help but scowl and stepped forward to block Qi Jingchen: "Everyone go rest!"

 

"You dare to defile an angel!" the person who called Qi Jingchen an angel angrily stared at Nie Yi.

 

The others also felt the same way. Although they thought Qi Jingchen was good-looking, they had no intention of defiling him. However, Nie Yi was different. He had kissed Qi Jingchen recklessly, making them feel it was wrong.

 

In order to make these people listen to him, Qi Jingchen deliberately used some of his light ability on himself. Surprisingly, it worked, but he did not expect to hear someone criticize Nie Yi. He kissed Nie Yi directly: "Alright, now I've defiled him."

 

This was clearly the Angel's reward to this person...several foreigner's felt depressed.

 

However, they had no choice but to endure it - Nie Yi was always the closest to Qi Jingchen.

 

"Hello, Angel. My name is Ryan." The foreign leader spoke to Qi Jingchen.

 

He spoke in Chinese, but when referring to Qi Jingchen as an "angel", he used English. "Angel" sounded strange to Qi Jingchen: "You don't have to call me angel. My name is Qi Jingchen."

 

"Qi Jingcheng," Ryan said.

 

"Actually, you can just call me Qi." Qi Jingchen said.

 

"Qi!" Ryan said: "Would you like to come to our country with us? All the countries in the world need you. You should broaden your reach!"

 

When Ryan said this, Shi Qing's face turned black. He hadn't even brought Qi Jingchen to the safety zone of B City yet, and these people came to digress!

 

"Sorry, I don't want to go far away, but I will build a city. You're welcome to settle in my city." Qi Jingchen said.

 

Before awakening his ability, he wanted to hide from the world and quietly spend the rest of his life. When he had just awakened his ability, he hadn't given it much thought, but his recent experiences made him change his mind.

 

He wanted to build a city of his own, filled with flowers and plants.

 

Even if the world was full of darkness in the end, so what? He would have the most beautiful city.

 

And when the people in his city relied on him for their livelihoods, they would definitely not have him take risks anymore. As long as he wanted, he could actually be more powerful than Yao Mengzhi.

 

Qi Jingchen realized that every time he encountered a big change, his perspective would also change.

 

The foreigners talked for a while, using English to communicate, and the most common word used was "angel."

 

Finally, Ryan said to Qi Jingchen, "Three of us will go back to report, and the rest of us will stay. If possible, we all hope to live by your side."

 

Qi Jingchen, of course, agreed.

 

By this time, the monkey had used up all its ability to grow a lot of vegetables.

 

As a reward, Qi Jingchen gave it a ball of light, and then asked Nie Yi to find a pot from the kitchen. Then the group cooked - they were all hungry from their earlier shenanigans.

 

Yao Mengzhi had furnished this place well, and even supplied kitchen utensils, but they couldn't light a fire. Fortunately, as long as Nie Yi had a pot, he could cook, and some of the others also had decent control over their fire ability and could passably cook.

 

At this point, nobody cared about taste, they were just happy to eat anything. For example, the foreigners took out some biscuits from their pockets, boiled them with vegetables, and happily ate them.

 

Nie Yi didn't have oil and salt on him, so he couldn't make anything too fancy. In the end, Qi Jingchen only drank a bowl of vegetable soup, then Nie Yi shared the rest of the soup with his four friends.

 

The four of them were awake, but their expressions were dull.

 

Nie Yi felt guilty for inadvertently getting them involved. "Sorry."

 

"Is that all you have to say?" One of them suddenly said.

 

"If you have any requests, you can tell me. I will do everything I can to help." Nie Yi said. Although he was friends with these people before the apocalypse, he didn't remember them much now after so many years had passed.

 

The four people sat together and didn't say anything in the end.

 

"I will take you away from here." Nie Yi continued: "Your loved ones..."

 

"They're all dead." One of them smiled bitterly.

 

When Nie Yi heard this person's words, he knew that the loved ones of these four people might have been killed by Yao Mengzhi.

 

This was something Yao Mengzhi had done to get back at him, and as a result, even if Nie Yi saved these four people, they would always hold some resentment in their hearts.

 

But this was not his fault. Yao Mengzhi killed those people, and he couldn't be held responsible.

 

"You guys eat something and rest well, we'll escape from here soon," said Nie Yi. 

 

The four of them glanced at Nie Yi then silently started eating.

 

Everyone ate, except for Chu Zhen and Yu Xuguang. Although Chu Zhen appeared harmless, the others were wary of him and so did not allow him to eat. As for Yu Xuguang...

 

Yu Xuguang remained unconscious.

 

Self-destructing his nucleus should have blown his brain apart. The wound on his head was healed but he simply wouldn't wake up... Qi Jingchen, at Shi Shiqing's request, had taken a look at him but couldn't see anything wrong, so they just let him continue to sleep.

 

After everyone finished eating, Nie Yi grabbed Chu Zhen and had the Earth ability user open the door before they left the room.

 

Yao Mengzhi was waiting outside the room.

 

She hadn't put on makeup before but now had an elegant look on her face. She looked worriedly at Chu Zhen, but then regained her composure.

 

"The helicopter is outside, you go and leave him behind, I promise I won't hurt you," said Yao Mengzhi.

 

"I don't trust your promise, so he must come with us," Nie Yi pulled Chu Zhen and said.

 

"No! What if you hurt him?" Yao Mengzhi's pupils contracted. Whether it was her obsession or whatever, Chu Zhen had become the person she cared about most.

 

"We won't hurt our safety talisman," Nie Yi said. "In order to avoid your people from chasing us, we must take him with us. Also, we plan to bring along people from some of the nearby small safe zones. "

 

Yao Mengzhi's makeup was too thick, making it impossible to see her expression clearly, but her eyes looked at Nie Yi like a venomous snake.

 

Nie Yi smiled. A small ice knife appeared in his hand, cutting Chu Zhen's face.

 

"Alright, alright! I'll let you go," Yao Mengzhi suddenly said.

 

Everything went smoothly without a hitch. They inspected the helicopters. They weren't tampered with so they took off safely.

 

Before the helicopter took off, Shi Kun's men were sent over. Yao Mengzhi even sent tons of food over, insisting that Chu Zhen not go hungry.

 

Nie Yi fed Chu Zhen some food in front of her and saw her breathe out a sigh of relief. He could guess why she kept Chu Zhen locked up and why she cared so much about him.

 

In the apocalypse, living itself was suffering and it wasn't easy to cultivate the will to live. So then many would find something to hold onto, such as "XX needs me" or "XX can't survive without me."

 

This was their drive to survive. Perhaps for Yao Mengzhi, Chu Zhen was her driving force.

 

The helicopter left the S City safe zone and headed first to the safe zone where Shi Kun's father was located.

 

It was a safe zone built around a development zone full of factories, not very big but with quite a few people living inside.

 

There were many zombies outside this safe zone, but none of them came close. Qi Jingchen sensed it and saw that a circle of powdery substance that emitted various dark energies had been scattered around the safe zone. This was what Shi Kun had mentioned before, something that the S City safe zone had used to prevent zombies from attacking the surrounding safe zones.

 

These things made the zombies unable to sense the people inside the safe zone, thinking they were all zombies and so would not attack.

 

Qi Jingchen remembered that this research was carried out by the people in the B City safe zone during the middle and later stages of the last apocalypse. Unfortunately, at that time, what made it impossible for humans to survive was not the zombies but the harsh environment, so the research was useless.

 

Yao Mengzhi's rebirth could have reduced a lot of killing, but unfortunately she opted for a contrary path.

 

The helicopter hovered over the safe zone for a while and the people below cleared a large piece of land. Then, a short middle-aged man walked up to them.

 

"What brings you all here?" the middle-aged man asked enthusiastically, looking at Shi Shiqing, the first to get off the helicopter.

 

"Dad!" Shi Kun followed.

 

"Son!" The middle-aged man was full of smiles when he saw Shi Kun. "Did you bring the oracle?"

 

"No, Dad, the Dark God is a hoax," Shi Kun said.

 

The middle-aged man's previous enthusiastic smile suddenly disappeared and he scolded Shi Kun, "What nonsense are you saying?"

 

"Dad, I'm not talking nonsense." Shi Kun looked at Qi Jingchen. If he wanted his father to lead the survivors here to leave, he had to show him tangible benefits.

 

The helicopter was an extremely rare thing for this small safe zone and by now, all helicopters were surrounded by people.

 

Qi Jingchen looked at the people below and used his ability.

 

"Were these helicopters brought by Shi Kun?"

 

"Did Shi Kun meet some important person in the S City safe zone? He can bring so many helicopters!"

 

"I've never seen a helicopter before. I can't believe there are so many..."

 

"Look, look! That's my friend! He went to S City with Shi Kun!"

 

...

 

The people in the small safe zone were talking when they felt something falling from the sky.

 

They were small white dots, seemingly ordinary, but when they fell on them, they felt refreshed and revitalized.

 

At first, some people thought it was an illusion, but soon they realized that it wasn't... What was this?
