Chapter 741: 741
On the other side, Wang Jian quickly discovered the zombie crowd’s movement .

“Over there!” He immediately led his squad toward the front end of the zombie crowd .
He and his men didn’t dare to get too close, so they observed those zombies from distance through telescopes . Soon, they found out that the zombie crowd was divided into two groups, meaning that two captives were released at one time .
After figuring out the situation, Wang Jian found a van before the zombie crowd . The three vehicles were drawing the zombies toward the opposite direction while the other vehicles weren’t visible . It seemed that the three vehicles were carrying the mission alone, and the rest of the team was hiding somewhere, waiting for all the zombies to be lured away .
It would certainly take a long while for them to lure away all the zombies on the scene . No one could say for sure how many zombies were in that area exactly .
At last, Wang Jian and some of his men followed behind the van and also sent out two other squads after the two vehicles which had captives dragged behind .
“Boss, why did they make us deal with the baits? Li Honglin is clearly trying to send us away so he himself can get through this area sooner . He’s gonna leave us behind, isn’t he?” At that moment, a man in the van said to Chen Hao with discontentment .
Chen Hao was wearing a sullen face as well .
He and Li Honglin were at the same level, and so were their forces . Reasonably speaking, he didn’t need to lead that kind of mission personally . His subordinates could simply do it for him .
However, Li Honglin insisted that the others might not be able to do the job well, and that he had to lead the mission himself .
Why?

Chen Hao and his men rejected on the spot . They started an intense argument that nearly developed into a violent conflict . At that point, Lu Tong stood out and took Li Honglin’s side . For that reason, Chen Hao had to obey .
Lu Tong, as a space possessor, was in charge of all their food .
Chen Hao didn’t need to do it for Lu Tong, but he had to do it for the sake of the food stored in Lu Tong’s space . He could choose to give up on the food actually, but Lu Tong had some other things on him that gave him no choice but to follow his words .
“If this mission succeeds, we’ll make them pay when we get to the new base,” said Chen Hao with a cold face .
“Boss, why do we have to do what Li Honglin says? Why don’t we just quit? Now, we’re distracting the zombies to let them go first . This isn’t good for us at all . We’ll need to take a long detour to the new base,” one of Chen Hao’s subordinates asked .
After saying that, he glanced at the group of commoners who were in the backseat with their hands tied up . He felt that he and his friends were doing something hard but not good for themselves .
“I know . But, if we don’t do what they say, we’ll be in trouble,” Chen Hao said . His face looked especially sulky under the dim light in the car .
“What trouble?” The subordinate looked at him confusedly .
Chen Hao glanced at him but stayed silent .
He, of course, wouldn’t tell his men that if he didn’t follow Lu Tong’s orders, the latter might tell other people about what he had done before . After all, the new base was still under Lin Family’s leadership .

If Lu Tong exposed that thing, the All Beings Base would have no space for him .
Chen Hao wanted very much to kill Lu Tong, but the latter had been highly vigilant against him . He was looking for a chance to kill Lu Tong all the way, but the chance never occurred . Lu Tong was always under Li Honglin’s protection .
“You don’t need to know,” Chen Hao responded to his subordinates .
At that time, he had no idea that Wang Jian already had his eyes on the van and had pointed his sniper rifle at a tire .
Apart from himself, the people by his side each had a sniper rifle as well, pointing at a tire .
Meanwhile, another group of commoners had secretly blocked the way before the van from hundreds of meters away .
“Fire!” Wang Jian gave the order once the van went into the shooting range .
Puff! Puff! Puff! A series of bullets were shot out through silencers .
Bang! Squeak… The van stopped moving abruptly and shook intensely .
“What happened?” Chen Hao was nearly thrown off his seat . He held the window frame tight and yelled to ask the question .

“Boss, the tires burst!” The driver didn’t know what exactly had happened either as he turned and answered his question .
“What!” Chen Hao knitted his brows, then gave the order, “Keep moving! We can’t stop here . Move to the side to avoid those zombies!”
“Yes,” The driver didn’t say anything else, but responded quickly and kept driving forward .
Driving a van with flat tires didn’t feel so good .
Right at that moment, another ‘puff’ was heard . Along with that, a bullet broke into the car window and sank into the driver’s chest .
“Eh…” The driver gave a muffled moan, then fell to the side, his hands dropping from the steering wheel . As a result, the van lost control and immediately veered off .
Chen Hao noticed that in time and instantly reached out to grasp the steering well .
“Long! Come here and drive!” He looked straight at the road and shouted while controlling the steering wheel .
“Yeah!” One of his subordinates quickly came over and dragged the driver’s body out of the driver’s seat, then sat in himself .
Chen Hao opened the car door and pushed the dead body out, then shut the door .
“Be careful! They have sniper rifles!” Chen Hao gave a shout to his men once the door was closed and looked around vigilantly in the meantime .
It was all dark outside the window . The enemies weren’t nearby, so Chen Hao wasn’t able to sense them .
On top of the building, Xie Dong glanced at Wang Jian and his people, then at Chen Hao’s van . He was surprised .
Wang Jian and his people were at least a thousand meters away from where Chen Hao was . Clearly, Wang Jian and his people were all very good at shooting . Otherwise, they couldn’t possibly shoot the tires through such a long distance, that too in the darkness .
At that point, a series of gunshots were heard from around the van, then came a loud boom and a fire .
The people who had ambushed not far away from the van jumped into action when the driver was shot dead, throwing out grenades . As commoners, all they could rely on were weapons .
Thankfully, the enemies weren’t at high levels . Otherwise, bullets and grenades would hardly hurt them .
Right after Chen Hao warned his people about the snipers, a grenade went off right beside the van . The van was turned over, rolling to the side while smoking .
Chen Hao and his men were too shocked to react immediately . As they finally came back to their senses, they hurriedly crawled out of the van through the broken windows .
Chen Hao had a sense of danger the moment he stuck his head out of the window, so he shrank back into the van as quickly as he could .
Puff! A bullet flew over his head and hit another window of the van .
