Chapter 115

Lin Qianhuan helplessly covered her eyes, too lazy to retort to Lu Jiasheng’s words.

Jiang Xing squatted obediently beside her, several strands of hair falling in front of his eyes partially obscuring his amber pupils.

And in his eyes, there was a clear and unconcealed delight.

Thunder boomed in her ears, and Lin Qianhuan stood up, frowning as she looked out the window.

The sky was hazy with a hint of brightness, the heavy rain showed no sign of stopping, and even seemed to be intensifying.

“I wonder when this rain will stop.”

People always need to see the sun; being in rainy weather for a long time just makes one feel that their mood is affected, becoming quite gloomy.

Lying on the mattress, Lu Jiasheng sighed, tugging at the wound on his abdomen, which made him wince in pain.

“Ouch, that hurts…”

He paused for a moment before continuing, “Under these circumstances, the rain stopping might actually be more dangerous.”

After all, the heavy rain affected not only humans, but also zombies.

Especially since there was a high-level zombie hidden in the Yuncheng subway station.

Once the heavy rain stopped, the survivors of Yuncheng would face a disaster they had never experienced before.

At that time, dense swarms of zombies would rush towards the survivors’ gathering places.

That scene would be a nightmare that the survivors would never forget in their lives.

Lin Qianhuan closed the slightly drafty window. Beneath the rushing sound of the rain, there seemed to be some messy footsteps.

She turned to give Lin Yixuan a look, and he also sensed something was wrong, getting up and heading to the security door.

Lu Jiasheng instantly became alert, subconsciously wanting to get up.

“What’s going on? Zombies?”

Lin Qianhuan shook her head slightly, “No, if it were zombies, they would have started ramming the door already. Why would they linger outside for so long?”

Lu Jiasheng lowered his eyes slightly, and a group of people immediately appeared in his mind.

He had thought that with the heavy rain, those people would no longer brave the storm to come, but he didn’t expect that he had underestimated the ugliness of human nature.

Lin Yixuan stood at the door, carefully distinguishing the voices outside.

“Why are we still hiding? The people inside might have starved to death already.”

“Exactly, it’s been more than ten days. Even if they haven’t died, they probably don’t have much ability to resist.”

“Tsk, don’t let your guard down. Don’t forget, they have guns!”

“So what if they have guns? Do they even have the strength to fire them now?”

…

Lin Qianhuan came behind Lin Yixuan, her gaze fixed on the security door, as if trying to see through the door and clearly see the blackened and rotten hearts of the people outside.

“Alright, alright, stop talking nonsense.

We didn’t follow the main group to Silver Bay Gardens in the eastern suburbs for shelter just to get back here in time to grab the guns.

After all this effort, we absolutely can’t let these guns fall into the hands of others.”

The speaker was a man, his face full of greedy smiles, which seemed even more terrifying in the dim corridor.

“With these guns, Silver Bay Gardens will be our granary.

When the time comes, we’ll stand at their door with the guns, and wouldn’t that damn base leader be so scared that he’d piss his pants and send us supplies?

Tiger, kick the door open for me!”

His words instantly boosted morale. A burly man stepped forward and kicked the security door in front of him.

The entire unit building was newly built, and the security doors were uniformly installed by the developer. The quality wasn’t very good.

Under the feet of a power-type Evolver, it was as fragile as a piece of paper, and it was easily broken open in less than three kicks.

The man thought he would see scattered corpses, but he didn’t expect to meet the gaze of a brightly smiling girl.

He frowned slightly, the black-framed glasses on his face dangling precariously, and he raised his hand to push them up.

“Damn it, they got here one step ahead of us?”

The power-type Evolver named Tiger walked to the man’s side, clenching his fists, causing a faint breeze to stir.

“Wouldn’t it be fine to just make sure they don’t leave?

Kill these little bastards, and the guns will still be ours!”

Lin Qianhuan took a step back, hiding behind Lin Yixuan, her smile not reaching her eyes.

“Big brother, kill him.”

“Alright.”

Lin Yixuan turned sideways to block her, and an invisible wind blade spun in the air.

With a soft “Puff” sound, the burly Tiger, who had attacked with his fist, suddenly froze in place, a shallow line of blood appearing on his neck.

The bespectacled man impatiently raised his hand and pushed him, “What are you doing standing there? Kill them!”

But with just this light push, Tiger’s massive body collapsed to the ground with a bang, and his head followed the force and fell to the ground, even bouncing slightly.

He died with his eyes wide open.

“Ah!”

“His head! His head fell off! Ah!!!”

The crowd instantly became chaotic. Some of the timid ones squeezed together, trying to run downstairs, but were blocked by an invisible barrier.

No matter how they beat and shoved, the barrier remained motionless.

Lin Qianhuan tilted her head slightly, “Why do you want to leave now that you’ve come?

Don’t you want to come in and take a look?”

A cold light flashed in her palm, and the Tang sword appeared in her hand.

“You guys are quite smart. The bodies of those who escaped to Silver Bay Gardens have long since turned cold. It’s just you who were stranded outside and managed to live half a day longer.”

She smiled happily, her eyes slightly narrowed, “It’s a good thing you came.”

The bespectacled man looked at the head and body separated Tiger, his legs trembling uncontrollably, and he retreated backward in a shiver.

He frantically turned around and squeezed into the crowd, trying to hide his figure.

But, all of this was in vain.

At this moment, the members of the cleanup team in the room had also woken up. After resting for a night, their physical strength had been replenished, and those who were not injured got up from their mattresses and came to the door.

The bespectacled man seemed to see a savior, and hurriedly ran over and knelt in front of Liu Guanwen.

“Brother, brother, please save us!

You are soldiers, you can’t just stand by and watch these two murderers commit evil!

We are all ordinary survivors. We did do some stupid things for the materials in your hands before.

But we all want to live, we just want to live!”

His lips trembled, and his snot and tears were mixed together, which made people feel disgusted.

Liu Guanwen looked at the crowd of people crowding and dodging.

There were old and young, and even a pregnant woman.

These people had once begged them for help in this way.

But who would have thought that under the mask, there were faces even more terrifying than zombies.

“You want to live, then what about my brother?”

Liu Guanwen’s eyes were red, and his voice was hoarse: “The man you stabbed to death with your own hands, his child is only three years old.

His wife and children are waiting for him to come home at the base every day.

Have you ever thought about what they should do? How should a woman live with a three-year-old child?

Why do you have to let others die if you want to live?!”

He raised his fist and slammed it on the bespectacled man’s face, knocking him away.

“Do you know, if he were still alive, how many people could he save? How many zombies could he kill? How many zombie hordes could he stop?

But all of this has been destroyed by you!

I would rather he die in the horde of zombies than be backstabbed by the people he personally saved.”
