According to Su Yu's introduction, Li Lang also slowly understood what the Pathfinder Bases were really about. These small bases established by one group of vagabonds were settlements for the vagabonds, and inside they were ruled by the leader of the builder group, which were actually similar to castles in the feudal era. Moreover, the defense capabilities of these fortresses were all good, with various firepower configurations inside. This Sixth Boss's base, according to Su Yu's understanding, was the closest one to the caravan, and the defense system was quite complete, and it could withstand the zombies with three pieces of bone armor growing on their heads. Li Lang originally did not quite understand, then it dawned on him, so he was talking about being able to withstand a level 3 zombie.
He smiled in his heart in disbelief, and at the same time felt a hint of surprise at the survival rate of these fortresses. One must know that as far as Li Lang could see now, that kind of level 5 zombies had already appeared, and even if it was level 4, it wasn't impossible to attack this what's-his-name Boss Liu's base.
"Do you know how many levels the highest ranked zombie is?" Li Lang suddenly thought of a question, if his assumption was correct, these wanderer bases might be in trouble.
"I don't know, but I heard others say that the kind with three pieces of bone armor on its head seems to be the most powerful, so that's called a third level zombie." Su Yu replied indifferently.
As expected, Li Lang suddenly understood why these bases could exist and why those regular fortresses were so heavily guarded. It looked like the zombies were still roaming around the city and hadn't marched into the wilderness on a large scale at all. This may be in those zombies living habits, and because of this, the wanderers have not encountered more advanced zombies, at most is the third level zombies. And once the zombies for whatever reason to the wilderness, then they will inevitably find the remnants of the human fortress and pioneer base, those fortress was originally a military base, and these pioneering bases are expected to be difficult to hold out.
However, what does it have to do with me. Li Lang shook his head mockingly and stopped thinking about this.
After about half a day, they finally arrived at Boss Liu's Pathfinder base. The base looked like it had been converted from an abandoned army training ground, and the original fire points could be seen everywhere, with a large flag with the word "Liu" written on it standing in the center of the base. There is only one main gate for people to enter and exit, and no matter whether they come out or go in, they have to go through some simple checks and hand in some things.
After handing over some of his belongings, the convoy led by Li Lang smoothly entered Boss Liu's base. It was only then that he realized that this Boss Liu had already given up his original name and was now called Boss Liu, he himself had almost forgotten his real name, and the others knew even less about it. Moreover, according to Su Yu's introduction, this Boss Liu is a master who eats people without spitting out bones, because he has mastered this fortress and a bunch of armed forces under his command, he has completely become an emperor of the land. All the things he sees, there is not a single thing that can not be snatched over, he sees the woman, generally will be obedient to him. If there is half a word of no, that is a dead body of the end.
In fact, this was quite normal, at times like this, not to do so would be a true good person, but if one was a good person, then one would inevitably be screwed over by others.
The whole base is about as big as a small town, there are 10,000 to 20,000 vagabonds living there, these people every day in addition to subsistence, they also have to do things for Boss Liu and his thousands of henchmen, living an extremely hard life, but there is no one who complains about anything, those who have the ability to complain have already died, but those who do not have the ability to do so do not dare to do so, at the very least, they can still be alive here.
Li Lang's arrival of this fleet of vehicles immediately attracted the attention of the entire base, after all, at a time like this, the ability to have a dozen or two dozen large vehicles, invariably shows strength. The first thing they went to was the slave market within the base, this market was actually created by Boss Liu himself, and as for the use of the slaves, they were generally used to go exploring within those abandoned cities to snatch the contents out from under the zombies, so the mortality rate was high. However, the escape rate was extremely low, it wasn't that the slaves were treated so well, it was that they uniformly wore an electromagnetic collar around their necks, and if their masters looked at them badly, all they had to do was to press the collar in their hands, and the slave's head would be crushed by the high explosives. This was originally a measure to guard prisoners in a felony prison to prevent escapes, but I never thought that it would be used by Boss Liu's men in such a way.

After selling the sad-faced captives without any problems, Li Lang obtained a good amount of general currency - energy. Knowing that at times like these, energy represented life, so the wanderers had subconsciously used energy as a general equivalent.
Li Lang is not very concerned about these, all he needs is a quiet place where he can rest, so after selling all the goods along with the vehicles, he dismissed those who were rescued and left them to fend for themselves. As for Su Yu, he was about to leave but was stopped by Li Lang.
Afterwards, Li Lang gave her most of the energy storage device he exchanged in his hand and then patted her head again, saying, "You are very good, I hope you can continue to live."
Su Yu just accepted the things indifferently, then coldly said, "Are you sure you don't need me to sleep with you?"
Li Lang laughed and said, "Convinced, I'm not a pornographer, let's go before I change my mind."
Su Yu flabbergasted at Li Lang for a while, her face changed several times, suddenly rushed over and hugged Li Lang, she hugged so tightly, so hard, as if she wanted to rub herself into Li Lang's body. Li Lang just looked at her smilingly, but his mood was very pleasant, although he just did something on the spur of the moment to help Su Yu, but he himself is not how much on his mind. These two people who looked so intensely in love were out of place with this dilapidated and chaotic street, attracting the numb gazes of many passers-by, except that there was also a hint of softness in their gazes, which made them think of the good life they once had.
Su Yu hugged for a while and violently pushed Li Lang away, her face returned to its original cold expression, and said to Li Lang, "I hope you can survive as well." She then picked up the two guns and those energy storage devices that Li Lang had distributed to him, turned around and left, disappearing into the streets.
Li Lang then also carried the rest of the energy storage device rented a house to live down, the encounter with Su Yu is only seen as a kind of chance by him, after that, let her go with the wind, after all, they are people in two worlds.

After settling down in his room, Li Lang first went to the restaurant in the base to eat something, and then began to inquire about the matter of level 4 zombies, hoping to find the corpse of a level 4 zombie so that he himself would be able to regain his strength through the method of devouring. However, the result was a great disappointment to him, the people here had never heard of a level 4 zombie at all! In their mouths, the most powerful zombie was a level 3 zombie, and their strength was blown up to the sky. It looked like these wanderers hadn't seen any higher grade zombies at all.
His decision to come to the human base was a wrong one, and if he wanted to look for the corpses of high-grade zombies, it looked like the only place to go was in the regular army's fortress. Li Lang silently gnawed the meat bones in his hand and made a decision. Tomorrow, he would leave this base and see if he could blend inside the other fortresses.
"Hmm?" Li Lang gnawed a bite of meat, but felt a familiar flavor, which made him realize that there was something different about the meat bone in his hand, it was definitely human meat! If the other flavors Li Lang might not be able to distinguish them, the taste of this human meat was something that had long lingered in his mind. Oh, I didn't expect that he wanted to eat a pork bone to change his tastes, but in the end, he still ate human meat.
Now he has no adverse reaction in terms of taste, perhaps because the mysterious colloid is activated, no matter what kind of meat, Li Lang can eat, only fresh human meat is relatively more delicious.
As for why there was human meat in this restaurant, Li Lang didn't want to care, and was too lazy to care, after he finished eating, he paid the money and carried the remaining energy storage device and swaggered towards the temporary residence.
Walking out a dozen meters away, Li Lang noticed that there were actually a few people behind him slowly following up, but it was the waiters in that restaurant. It looked like he had been treated as a single fat sheep, which would explain the source of the human meat in the store. Li Lang pretended not to notice, slowly led these people to a no one alley, about to go to the end of the time, he heard the sound of footsteps behind him, it looks like those people have been pressed.
Li Lang threw the object in his hand, then turned around violently, changing into zombie form in an instant, all of his alienated limbs catapulted out, and with a fierce smile, he lunged towards the several people who were almost paralyzed on the ground!
"Mourning-" Before the word zombie was finished, a fat man running at the front was immediately picked apart by a large black horn and had his head smashed, while a man beside him had his neck tightened and was yanked over by a blood-red tentacle, sticking it alive into Li Lang's tapered arm, momentarily not dead, twisting his body non-stop.
The last person turned around and ran, Li Lang was not in a hurry to catch up, only waiting for him to run to the mouth of the alleyway, before he made a forceful leap, and directly landed from the man's back, the to hook-like nails on the alienated feet deeply scratched into his back, and his spine was actually yanked out!
After instantly killing the three people, Li Lang immediately resumed his human form. The reason why he turned into zombie form to kill was to move his muscles, but he wanted to see if his skills had degraded. Only the result barely satisfied him, the alienation skills were used freely, only that he was able to clearly feel that the hardness and speed of each attacking limb had dropped a bit, and it looked like this was the evil consequence of downgrading.
Then he picked up his own things and a corpse on the ground slowly slinking back, just now did not eat very full, now there are fresh to the door, do not want for nothing.
As for the remaining two corpses, after being discovered by someone, someone will handle it... It wasn't a big deal in the first place, robberies and killings and rapes abound in the base, and in this new era that honors violence, people are already not surprised.

That night, Li Lang, who had eaten and drunk enough, was lying on his bed with his eyes closed while trying to control the mysterious colloid in his body, when suddenly, a fishy odor wafted from the end of his nose while he felt an indescribable oppression in his intuition, as if he stood in front of a thousand armies. He was puzzled when he heard a shrill alarm outside. In a burst of chaotic running, someone immediately shouted, "Corpse tide, corpse tide is coming!"
