Chapter 1116: Chapter 1116
"Well said, how about that Cui Senior Brother of yours?" Lin Fan asked.
Zhao Zhong hurriedly replied, "Senior Brother Cui takes good care of us, he’s very nice, definitely not like Jiang Shan."
He was afraid Lin Fan would misunderstand Senior Brother Cui.
Ever since being taken by Senior Brother Cui, he had realized that although Senior Brother Cui was incredibly powerful, he was very disciplined and never did anything evil, like using his strength to oppress survivors at will.
Lin Fan had never met Cui Xiaofei.
He remained skeptical about this.
"I think he is trustworthy." Lin Fan smiled.
Lin Fan looked toward the doorway, and a figure appeared.
"Senior Brother Cui..."
Zhao Zhong exclaimed, not expecting Senior Brother Cui to return, but soon he became nervous, fearing that Senior Brother Cui would see Jiang Shan dead and rage, eventually coming into conflict with Lin Fan.
This wasn’t something he wanted to see.
Senior Brother Cui was strong, but definitely not a match for Lin Fan.
If a fight really broke out, he’d definitely be smashed to a pulp.
Anyone could be doubted, but Lin Fan’s strength was beyond doubt.
He hurriedly went forward, walked to Senior Brother Cui, and explained what had just happened, wanting Senior Brother Cui to understand that it was all Jiang Shan’s own doing; he changed completely after gaining immense power.
Not only did he attack ordinary survivors.
He even attacked him.
But before he could speak, Senior Brother Cui raised his hand to interrupt him.
"I already know, it’s fine."
Cui Xiaofei immediately saw Zhao Zhong’s worries and couldn’t help but laugh, did they really think of him as an unreasonable person?
Zhao Zhong let out an "oh" and then quickly ran to Lin Fan’s side to introduce who had appeared.
Lin Fan had never met Cui Xiaofei before; this was their first meeting.
The meeting between the two did not lead to any conflict.
Everything was very cordial.
Cui Xiaofei glanced at the body with its head burst open and recognized it from the clothes as Jiang Shan.
"When an ordinary person gains great power, their heart often wavers and gets controlled by the power, losing their original intent; Jiang Shan was such a case, but I couldn’t stop it."
He brought out the students to help them gain self-preservation powers to survive better in the apocalypse.
But to gain this power, the extra price one needs to pay must be borne by oneself.
The failure of integration and the change in temperament.
It’s something he couldn’t control.
"Yes, you’re right, sudden power can easily make people lose their original intent, but those with strong wills can often overcome this situation."
Lin Fan smiled, observing his counterpart carefully.
The Cui Xiaofei in front of him wasn’t evil, his eyes revealed a certain clarity, as if he had seen through a lot.
"Yes, willpower is what truly matters; the apocalypse is like a trial by fire, where all the living are being tempered. I always believe that those who can survive to the end are the winners."
Cui Xiaofei was also examining Lin Fan.
Just as depicted in the Zombie Album.
No difference at all.
He was very interested in Lin Fan, curious about what circumstances led a human to become so incredibly powerful.
He couldn’t figure it out.
Lin Fan quietly looked at him, "Could you tell me where the organization that concocted the serum is?"
He really wanted to know.
Although the Cui Xiaofei in front of him might not harm ordinary humans, he couldn’t guarantee about others, so he just wanted to know where the organization developing the serum was based.
In order to have a good chat with the person in charge there.
"Sorry, I can’t answer that for you."
Lin Fan smiled, not angry at the other’s reluctance to speak.
"Alright, you have your own ideas; if you don’t want to say, I won’t force you. I think one day I’ll find out myself, but your situation isn’t good; there’s something dreadful inside of you."
What he meant by dreadful wasn’t something he feared, but something possessing immense destructiveness to anyone other than him.
Cui Xiaofei smiled, understanding what Lin Fan meant.
"The path is one’s own decision, at the beginning of some things there is no room for choice, but let’s not talk about these; is the principal still mad at me? Is everything okay at the Sunshine Shelter?"
Lin Fan looked at him and nodded, "Everything is fine, Principal Duan isn’t mad; he just occasionally sighs when mentioning you."
Officer Huang was also observing Cui Xiaofei.
But he didn’t move; under normal circumstances, if Cui Xiaofei had any issues, Officer Huang wouldn’t care about anything and would directly take action to capture him.
But it seemed, just as he saw.
Cui Xiaofei had already passed Officer Huang’s verification. Thᴇ link to the origɪn of this information rᴇsts ɪn 𝙣𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙡✶𝙛𝙞𝙧𝙚✶𝙣𝙚𝙩
"Please say hello to Principal Duan for me when you return." Cui Xiaofei said softly, then looked at Zhao Zhong, "Junior Brother, are you going back to the Sunshine Shelter with him, or coming with me?"
Zhao Zhong said, "Senior Brother, I’m going with you; I still want to help others outside."
For Zhao Zhong, returning to the Sunshine Shelter would definitely mean a good life, without many worries, but he also had his own thoughts and choices.
He wanted to use his ability to help more people in this apocalypse.
Lin Fan looked at Zhao Zhong, saying nothing more. Sometimes, when more and more people are filled with hope, this apocalypse could become a better place.
"I hope we can meet again next time." Cui Xiaofei smiled, turned and walked into the distance, and Zhao Zhong bid farewell to Lin Fan, quickly following. As they walked, Cui Xiaofei suddenly stopped, turned and said, "Lin Fan, be cautious of the Qin Group. Qin Ling has turned into a zombie, constantly collecting high-tier zombie corpses and Awakeners. I think he might become a very terrifying monster."
"Thank you, I understand." Lin Fan nodded.
He knew Qin Ling had issues.
Cui Xiaofei chuckled, waved his hand, and left towards the distance.
Officer Huang also headed into the distance.
"Officer Huang, take care of yourself."
Lin Fan shouted at the distant back.
Officer Huang, clad in War Armor, waved back, seemingly saying... got it.
Receiving a response, Lin Fan couldn’t help but smile.
He looked at the survivors, who were also looking at Lin Fan, their eyes filled with anticipation, an anticipation for the future.
Feeling these looks, Lin Fan felt that what he was doing was meaningful.
Bringing true hope to those chasing hope.
Just the thought of it felt very comforting.
Duan Chenghu sighed heavily after hearing what Lin Fan said.
He didn’t say much, but Duan Chenghu’s demeanor clearly improved, as Lin Fan’s recognition assured him, and he knew Xiaofei always had a kind heart.
He also learned of Zhao Zhong’s situation, feeling nothing but comforted.
Though Lin Fan didn’t speak of what happened to Jiang Shan, there was no need to mention it; it’s all past now, and if Principal Duan knew what student Jiang Shan did.
His joyous mood might instantly turn sour.
"But why did Xiaofei refuse to reveal the organization’s location?" Principal Duan inquired, knowing that Xiaofei hadn’t turned bad, but the organization must certainly be up to no good.
Lin Fan replied, "Perhaps he doesn’t know either, or maybe something inside him is restricting him, influencing him, and once he reveals it, unimaginable things might happen."
Duan Chenghu began to worry again about his once most promising student.
"Sigh... just hoping things will go smoothly."
