185: earthquake

For the next few days, Luo Chen and Hou Jun, along with a few others, attacked the Zombies around the cave entrance, and nothing out of the ordinary happened.

After seeing the Zombie offensive being thwarted, Wu Que proactively withdrew some of the smaller Dinosaur Zombies and Pterosaurs, and instead went to collect ownerless Train carriages.

His current goal was to develop his forces as much as possible; with his current abilities, it was difficult for him to defeat the combined humans, so it was better to wait until his strength was greater before making a move against the normal human side.

Moreover, Zela's objective was to deplete the Zombies and did not advocate for him to fight to the death; being under her command, he naturally did not dare to defy orders.

Of course, Zela also had other concerns; if the human side were completely annihilated, it might incur punishment from Gods Guild, and getting into trouble for a meaningless matter held no significance for her.

With the strong attacks gone, the crisis faced by the people on the wall became quite small.

Luo Chen and Hou Jun chatted while fighting Zombies, constantly increasing their understanding of each other, until the last day, their relationship became very harmonious.

At six o'clock in the morning on the last day, the sky had just begun to lighten, and the horizon above the wall was tinged with pink, while the wall in the shadows was as black as ink.

Under the faint morning mist, Luo Chen and Hou Jun's two teams, having divided their spoils, planned to part ways; the Train would depart again at eight o'clock, two hours later, and to avoid being trapped here, they intended to return to the Train early.

"It was a pleasure working with you! I hope we can meet again in the future!" Luo Chen and Hou Jun clapped hands and said with a smile.

"It was a pleasure working with you!" Hou Jun nodded, looking at Luo Chen with a hesitant expression.

However, he gave up on speaking what was on his mind.

He turned around, waved his hand, and said, "Attention, everyone! Pack up all your belongings and return to the Train."

Luo Chen led his group back towards the Train from the other side, but halfway there, a figure suddenly darted out from behind a nearby Train carriage.

"Alert!" Si Ming shouted loudly.

Immediately, two figures appeared in front of Luo Chen, their muzzles pointing directly at the person.

"Don't shoot, don't shoot! It's me," the figure raised her hands and quickly shouted.

"Lin Youzi? Why is it you? Why didn't you go back with Hou Jun and them?" Luo Chen looked at the newcomer, a little surprised.

"I withdrew from their Train!" Lin Youzi's tone was a bit low: "I wasn't wrong at all; it's just that those people from the Federation are too selfish. I told them, but they wouldn't listen, so I voluntarily withdrew. Brother Chen, will you let me join your group? I really have nowhere to go by myself now."

As she spoke, Lin Youzi's eyes turned red, and she almost started to cry.

The women behind Luo Chen looked at her with some pity; it had to be said that Lin Youzi was very cute, with a bit of baby fat on her face, and her large eyes, now glistening with tears, made her appear utterly pathetic.

Their not joining the Great Xia Interstellar Federation was based on the same view; for ordinary people, joining the Great Xia Interstellar Federation was undoubtedly the best choice, obeying the collective to obtain a relatively stable life.

But for women like them, it was not what they wanted; the phenomenon of 'femme fatale' exists in both chaotic and peaceful times, and to live well, they could only cling to a powerful figure.

"Hou Jun agreed to it?" Luo Chen asked; for a passenger and Vice Train Captain to withdraw, the Train Conductor's consent was required, otherwise, others who wished to take them in would not be able to add them as passengers.

"Yes! I've already told him!" Lin Youzi pursed her lips and nodded.

"But..."

Just as Luo Chen was about to agree, suddenly, the ground began to shake violently, as if the entire world was trembling, everyone swayed precariously, and numerous small cracks appeared on the ground.

"Quick! Return to the Train," Luo Chen saw this and immediately shouted, leading the way towards the Train, and everyone frantically followed Luo Chen's footsteps.

Lin Youzi glanced at the backs of the crowd, gritted her teeth, and also ran after Luo Chen; regardless of whether Luo Chen agreed or not, she had nowhere else to go now.
