Lin Qinghe was still immersed in the joy of You Rong's confession progress bar increasing. Seeing her stillness, You Rong frowned, "Why aren't you speaking?"
Lin Qinghe blinked, not understanding, "Speak? Speak about what?"
"Say you like me too, like you said before… say you like me!"
Hearing this, Lin Qinghe couldn't help but let out a chuckle, "Alright, alright… I like you! The person I like the most is You Rong, and You Rong is the only one I like. Are you happy now?"
You Rong pursed his lips and let out a pleased "Mmm." His gaze fell on Lin Qinghe's lips, his eyes flickering. He lowered his head, leaning closer, and said in a deep voice, "Let's try again…"
Just as You Rong was about to kiss Lin Qinghe, a panicked voice from outside shattered the moment, "Help! Someone's breaking in…"
You Rong shot an displeased, cold glance. The person met You Rong's crimson eyes and suddenly stopped speaking, his entire body stiffening, unable to move, his face filled with terror as he stared at You Rong.
The person had the exact same reaction as Jiang Li; they were controlled by You Rong.
You Rong lowered his head, intending to kiss Lin Qinghe again. Lin Qinghe had already snapped back to reality. She pushed You Rong's shoulder, dodging his kiss, and said, "Enough! This isn't the time for this. You snuck in? Then we need to leave quickly, or they'll react soon. Besides, the leader of the R organization, Jiang Tao, is also in the base. He's unusually obsessed with you. If he finds out you're here, he'll stop at nothing to capture you."
You Rong stubbornly lowered his head and kissed Lin Qinghe. After the kiss, he said unhurriedly, "It's fine. They can't do anything to me now. Let's go, I'll take you out first."
You Rong carried Lin Qinghe, swaggering openly out of the room.
Along the way, they encountered members of the R organization. As soon as they tried to attack, they met You Rong's eyes, and their limbs became uncontrollable. They froze, unable to move, their faces full of terror as they watched You Rong carry Lin Qinghe away.
Lin Qinghe, nestled in You Rong's arms, looked around with shock, "As long as they look into your eyes, you can control them?"
You Rong nodded, "Yes, after I woke up this time, I suddenly discovered I could do this."
"Then… you could command zombies before, can you still do it now?"
You Rong nodded, "Yes, I can. All the zombies that followed are outside G City. I told them to wait, and they'll act after I take you out."
Lin Qinghe was shocked and filled with envy, jealousy, and hatred.
This must be the protagonist's halo!
Unlike her, who had no golden finger cheat and could only bitterly use her own brain and hands to complete tasks. Moreover, none of the difficulties presented by the system were simple!
You Rong naturally didn't notice Lin Qinghe's thoughts. He carried her out through the same place where he had broken the electric fence to enter. As soon as they were out, they ran into Jiang Xun, who was waiting outside to meet them.
Seeing them, Jiang Xun immediately ran over, exclaiming happily, "Sister Lin! You're alright! That's great. After you were taken away by the R organization that day, my sister and I were very worried. It's good that you're okay, it's good you're okay…"
Lin Qinghe smiled slightly, "Yes, I'm fine. I'm sorry to have made you and Miss Jiang worry. And thank you for helping me take You Rong away that day."
"It's nothing. In the end, it was because of you that we were able to safely take Brother away. You don't need to thank me!"
"Even so, I still need to thank you and Miss Jiang again."
"No need, no need…"
Seeing Lin Qinghe talking to Jiang Xun, You Rong frowned slightly in displeasure, interrupting their conversation, "Qinghe, you leave G City with Jiang Xun first. I'll find you later."
Lin Qinghe thought for a moment and understood You Rong's intention, "You want to take the zombies to find the R organization's base? I'll go with you!"
"Your body hasn't recovered yet. Wait for me in a safe place."
"No need! My body is fine now. Please let me go with you. I'll protect myself and won't worry you."
You Rong's brows furrowed; he wasn't planning to agree.
Lin Qinghe had to soften her voice, "You Rong, please let me go with you. I won't feel at ease if I don't see you…"
You Rong pondered for a moment, then said gravely, "You wait for me in G City with Jiang Xun. I'll go to the R organization's base and be back soon."
"I can't go with you…"
You Rong interrupted Lin Qinghe, "I can't let you risk danger again, do you understand?"
Seeing the worry in You Rong's eyes, Lin Qinghe had to take a step back, "Okay, I'll wait for you in G City. Come back quickly and be careful!"
"I will."
You Rong lowered his head and kissed Lin Qinghe's forehead. He then turned to Jiang Xun, who patted his chest and said, "Brother! Don't worry, I'll definitely protect Sister Lin. I guarantee I'll return Sister Lin to you unharmed before you get back!"
You Rong pursed his lips without speaking, his gaze flickering. Over a dozen advanced zombies suddenly appeared behind them. You Rong gave them a look, and the advanced zombies let out low sounds, as if responding to You Rong, indicating they understood.
You Rong took a deep look at Lin Qinghe and turned to leave, his figure quickly disappearing into the darkness. The advanced zombies hovered around Lin Qinghe, protecting her.
Lin Qinghe gazed thoughtfully at You Rong's retreating figure, guessing his purpose in returning to the R base.
Jiang Xun thought Lin Qinghe was worried about You Rong and comforted her, "Sister Lin, don't worry. Brother is so powerful now. All the zombies obey him. He can communicate with and command them to do anything! He can even make them stop attacking humans! Before we entered G City, there were tens of thousands of zombies gathered outside. If Brother gives the order, they'll be even more formidable than the R organization's well-armed troops!"
Lin Qinghe smiled at Jiang Xun's words and said nothing.
She wasn't particularly worried about You Rong. She knew very well that You Rong, who had evolved into a zombie king, was so powerful that no one in the apocalypse could defeat him.
***
R organization, G City base, laboratory.
When You Rong arrived, he controlled the guards at the entrance and easily reached the highest-level area of the laboratory. He looked at the rows of experimental drug vials and computers recording various data.
His eyes suddenly turned cold.
The drugs here were similar to the ones injected into him. Gu Hesheng, in collaboration with other R organization scientists, had developed them through countless experiments. They fantasized about having the most powerful team in the apocalypse by modifying human bodies, not hesitating to experiment on living people, disregarding human rights, and infecting them with the virus!
He didn't want to see anyone else exploited!
He was going to destroy this place!
You Rong walked to the entrance, took out several grenades, pulled the pins, and threw them all in before the door closed.
With a deafening boom, the entire laboratory shook, and all the stored data and drugs were destroyed.
As soon as You Rong turned around, he encountered Gu Hesheng, who had rushed over upon hearing the commotion.
Gu Hesheng's face changed drastically, and he exclaimed in terror, "You Rong! It's you!"
