Chapter 23: Departure

Now that he has decided to return to the base, Luo Fan wants to say goodbye to Lina first, after all, she is the first friend he has met in this world, and she is also a partner who has experienced life and death together.

And now the situation in the Saada Empire is still in a relatively stable state, and the zombie army will not invade in a big way in a short time, as for some scattered zombies, the army of the Grad city-state can easily deal with it.

As for the Ernnes, don't worry, Ernn is already in danger at this moment, and there is no strength left to deal with the Sada Empire, so Luo Fan's departure will not have much impact in theory.

Of course, the above views are only Luo Fan's personal opinions, as for fate and not joking with him, that is another matter.

It didn't take long for Luo Fan to come to Linna's bedroom, looking at Linna resting on the hospital bed, Luo Fan didn't want to disturb her. Just as Rofan was about to turn to leave, Lina stopped him.

"Luo Fan, what's wrong, is there something wrong?", Lina suddenly opened her big bright eyes and looked at him with a wink.

"It's nothing...", Luo Fan wanted to speak and stopped, especially thinking that if he couldn't come back in time, then what was waiting for Lina would be death, Luo Fan didn't know what to say for a while.

"I heard from my men that you're leaving?", it was Linna's words that reversed the originally somewhat embarrassing scene.

"yes, I'm going back to base, there's something I need to take care of. Luo Fan was afraid that Linna would think too much, so he didn't mention the matter of the medical cabin, and casually made a reason.

"When will you leave?", Lena asked weakly.

"Will leave the city-state of Grad today. Luo Fan hesitated for a moment and said.

"So fast...", Linna's tone suddenly became sad.

"Really, don't be like this, it's not a life or death, I'll be back in a while. Besides, you don't know who I am, and nothing can hurt me, so you can rest assured. ”

Seeing Linna's lost emotions, Luo Fan said subconsciously.

Seeing Luo Fan comforting her with such a smiling face, coupled with Luo Fan's previous desire to stop talking, Lina faintly felt that Luo Fan was full of something, but she was not sure what it was.

When parting, Lina still wanted to struggle to get up and send Luo Fan away, but Luo Fan pushed her back to the bed and let her rest well.

It was already noon, and the sun was shining in the sky. Standing on the highest watchtower in the city of Grad, watching the royal palace shine in the sun, and looking at the prosperity of the city-state of Grad, Luo Fan remembered the scene when he first came to the city-state of Grad.

At that time, Lina was still a carefree princess, and she was only a teenager at that time. At that time, the city-state of Grad was not so prosperous, and the palace at that time was not so magnificent, but now that I think about it, only that time was the most beautiful.

Maybe people are like this, remembering this thing, you can't go back, and it looks so beautiful when you remember it.

After feeling sad for a while, Luo Fan suddenly realized that he seemed to have feelings for the city, as if Luo Fan had not felt this way for a long time since he crossed over.

"Perhaps, it's the life here that makes me homesick...", Luo Fan thought to himself.

After adjusting his mood, Luo Fan took the only remaining three hundred expeditionary troops on his horse and resolutely embarked on the journey back to the base.

"Queen, don't look, you're already far away. It's windy outside, so go in and rest. Seeing Queen Lina standing at the head of the city for a long time, the maid hurriedly put on a coat for her and reminded.

"Ahem... Ahem, well, I'll go back right away. Looking at the bright red blood coughed up from the handkerchief, Queen Lina began to worry.

"I probably won't be able to wait for you to come back. Lina thought to herself, she knew her physical condition too well at the moment.

In the middle of the Saada Empire, the small town of Saumur.

Since the outbreak of the zombie crisis, only the only pure land left in the western mountains of the entire Saada Empire, and all the rest of the places are basically full of traces of zombies.

But this does not mean that all human beings have been wiped out by zombies, there are many armed forces all over Saada, fighting against zombies in a vast territory, and surviving in the cracks.

The small town of Saumur is one of them, because it is closer to the western region, so there are not many zombies here. Even before the fall of the city-state of Illeglan, there had never been a zombie here.

So as the place where the last group of zombies invaded, Saumur Town was well prepared before the zombies arrived.

In particular, the mayor of the town was the famous General Kohl during the time of Saton I, who made great achievements in conquering the territory of the Saada Empire, and later chose to return to his hometown because of his age, and became the mayor of Saumur Town.

Although he is already 80 years old, General Cole is still in good spirits, walks with the wind, and has the same combat thinking and strategic awareness as he was back then.

It was under the wise leadership of General Cole that the town's soldiers and civilians were able to stock up on enough food and fortify the town's walls before the first wave of zombies arrived.

As a result, the town of Saumur has become the only surviving town within a radius of 100 miles, and every day refugees fleeing from all over the world are lucky enough to find it.

General Cole did not refuse to come, and the number of militia in the back towns reached eight or nine thousand, and they were almost catching up with some inland city-states.

A week after leaving the city-state of Grad, Lofan was within the confines of the town, and he should have been on his way to the Sam base day and night.

But not long ago, he found through the telescope that a large number of zombies were rushing here, and the number was at least about 100,000.

If he continued to move forward, he would definitely inevitably encounter them, and with Luo Fan's current strength, it was almost impossible for him to survive such a large number of zombies.

So he now urgently needs to find a place that can safely escape this wave of corpses, Luo Fan's original idea was to find a quiet mountain forest, because previous experience has confirmed that the number of zombies in the mountainous area is the lowest, which is why the western part of Sada has been able to survive.

But before they could do it, they got lost in a strange jungle. Then, on the way south, they met several Sada civilians in the grove who were being chased by zombies.

In the spirit of humanitarianism, he saved them. Just as Rovan was about to let them go on their own, they told Lofan something about the small town of Saumur.

It turned out that they were residents of a nearby town, and their town had just been overrun by a large wave of zombies, so they were forced to flee there.

Now they plan to go to the only surviving town of Saumur, so they hope that Rofan and his party will go with them so that they can also have a safe and secure journey along the way.

Luo Fan thought about it carefully, he had no better place to avoid this wave of zombies, and if he could have a surviving town to rely on, it would also be very beneficial to him.

So Rofan followed the people to the confines of the small town of Saumur.
