Apocalypse: The Supporting Actress Made a Comeback novel Chapter 468

Chapter 468: 259 Lin City Base (Third Update)

The driver stuck his head out of the window, his eyes warily watching them, his hand quietly gripping a gun, ready to retaliate if the other party made a sudden move! He asked, "Are you from out of town?"

Bai Ye had already learned about Li Qingyun from Fang Yuxin, so he stopped the car, leaned out, and said to the other, "We want to go to your Safe Zone to find someone, are there any rules we should know about?"

The driver exchanged glances with his colleague and then told Bai Ye, "To enter the Base, each person must pay a Basic-level Crystal Core. If someone is a superpower user or has special skills, the Crystal Core fee can be waived. Also, everyone must undergo a blood test. We were just about to head back to the Base ourselves, so if you don’t have any issues, just follow us."

Bai Ye, thinking that the others might not have a Crystal Core, helpfully asked, "What if someone can’t pay the Crystal Core, can they run a tab?"

At this, the driver was momentarily stunned. Logically, anyone who could get through a zombie encirclement had to be capable, and how could such people not have a Crystal Core? He was filled with doubt. However, he didn’t voice this doubt and simply said, "Running a tab is possible, but you must work off the debt."

In fact, the management of their Safe Zone was rather iron-fisted or, one might say, extremely stringent. Ordinary People who couldn’t produce a Crystal Core ended up as the lowest labor class, toiling day and night and never getting enough to eat.

But for those who were capable, life in the Safe Zone could be quite good.

So, he didn’t tell Bai Ye this, having noticed that, aside from the relatively nice car Bai Ye was driving, the other vehicles were battered and clearly belonged to those of lesser ability.

He understood Bai Ye’s implication and realized that the people following weren’t on the same level as Bai Ye.

The rest of the journey was relatively secure since they were already at the outer reaches of the Safe Zone. Patrols went out daily to hunt zombies, so there weren’t many around. Along the way, they only encountered a few stray zombies, which the people in the truck dealt with before Bai Ye could even act.
