Zombie Apocalypse: Reborn With A Farming Space novel Chapter 262

Looking at his stubborn son, Pei Xun said with a sigh, "Yijun, you are no longer a kid. You should understand that the current situation is different from before."

"We will prepare for the zombie attack and continue recruiting the ability-users to increase our base's strength. As for the matter of the zombie horde at the border, just let the Lin'an side take care of it."

The moment Pei Yijun heard his father's words, he felt a chill run down his spine. He looked at his father as if this was the first time he had known him.

He clenched his fists tightly and asked, "Father, do you know that there are several survivor camps near the border?"

"I know. Wei Ying mentioned it before," Pei Xun replied.

Taking a deep breath, Pei Yijun asked again, "Since you know that there are several survivor camps on the border, then you must know the consequences of leaving the zombie horde uncontrolled, right?"

Pei Xun looked at his son as if he were a fool and asked, "Yijun, what exactly do you want to say?"

"Father, you clearly know that countless lives will be lost if the zombie horde moves toward Lin'an City's border and attacks the camps. Since we have the manpower and ability to help, why won't you help?" Pei Yijun asked.

Pei Xun let out a long sigh, pinched the bridge of his nose, and said, "I have told you the matter is not as simple as that. Beside our base, there are at least five bases that stand at the same level as us."

"You saw it yourself. The number of zombies is at least 80,000. The chance of surviving the battle is lower than 5%. If we send our people to help, it is equal to cutting off our power."

"The moment our strength weakens, those bases won't let us off. Compared to those weak and old people, preserving our own people and territory is the priority."

Even after hearing his father's explanation, Pei Yijun still couldn't accept his father's view and replied angrily, "Father, those weak and old are human lives! They are not just a number!"

Angered by his son's behavior, Pei Xun slammed his hand on the desk and said, "Pei Yijun, you better watch your attitude! Do you think I won't punish you just because you have your mother's protection?!"

"I'm no longer a child, I don't need anyone to protect me!" Pei Yijun shouted back.

As soon as he said those words, the two of them stared at each other, neither willing to back down.

After a long silence, Pei Yijun took a deep breath and said, "Since you won't help, then I will help."

The moment he said those words, he turned around and walked to the door.

Seeing that his son was determined to leave, Pei Xun was furious. Standing up, he shouted, "Rebellious son, stop right there!"

Ignoring his father's words, Pei Yijun pulled open the door. But before he could step out of the room, a man in his thirties blocked his way and said with a smile, "Young master, please calm down."
