Chapter 27

Zhou Meng didn’t care about the lackeys grabbed by the zombies; he just ran forward, without hesitation.
“Boss, boss, save me!”
Skinny Monkey’s trouser leg was grabbed by a zombie missing both legs. His thin ankle was pierced by black fingernails, the virus spread rapidly, he could still feel the pain, but his eyes were already vacant.
Zhou Meng pretended not to hear, shot and killed a zombie lunging at him, and ran somewhat disheveled into Villa No. 10.
Of the 20-plus people, only a dozen or so returned. Some were completely devoured, while others dragged their crippled bodies, staggering to their feet, and joined the zombie army.
“Damn, the people in Villa No. 36 are quite vigilant!”
Zhou Meng spat on the ground, glaring at Lin Fu with disgust.
“You’re also a piece of trash, saying a bunch of nonsense. So what? People didn’t even open the door, they don’t believe you at all! If you hadn’t messed things up, would so many of our brothers have died?”
With just a few words, Zhou Meng glossed over the fact that he had abandoned them, pushing all the blame onto Lin Fu.
He raised his foot to kick Lin Fu, but the other man’s knees buckled and he knelt down, hugging his leg and wailing.
“I was wrong, Boss Meng, I really know I was wrong. Please spare my lowly life, I’ll follow you and work like a dog to repay you, please spare me!”
Lin Fu was trembling all over. He absolutely couldn’t lose Zhou Meng’s protection, and he had to save his own life.
The three beasts probably lived in Villa No. 36.
What he had done to those three siblings was definitely enough for them to unite and take his life.
Now it was the end of the world. Zombies were constantly threatening the living environment of ordinary people. Social order was chaotic, and murder and robbery were nothing major these days.
The world was already in chaos. Following Zhou Meng, he lived in fear, with the possibility of death at any time, but he could barely find a way to survive.
But if he was caught by those three bastards, he would definitely die a horrible death!
Thinking of this, Zhou Meng became even more terrified. He reached out and carefully wiped the dust off Zhou Meng’s shoes.
“Boss Meng, please spare my life. Can you just let me go?”
Seeing Lin Fu’s servile and fawning appearance, Zhou Meng curled his lips maliciously, stepping his shoe directly onto Lin Fu’s face.
“What sincerity is there in wiping with your sleeve? Shoe polish is hard to find in the apocalypse, and my good leather shoes are covered in dust. How about this, you lick the shoe clean for me, and I’ll spare your dog life.”
Lin Fu felt humiliated, but his face showed great joy. He kowtowed a few times to Zhou Meng, then crawled to the man’s side on his knees, obediently cleaning the dust off his leather shoes.
The surrounding lackeys pointed and laughed at him, mocking him for being so servile that he wasn’t even human anymore.
But Lin Fu didn’t care.
He just wanted to live, to live well.
He was a man over fifty years old, without any supernatural abilities, without any weapons, and his physical fitness was poor. He would be out of breath after running a few steps.
If he lost Zhou Meng’s protection, then he would really be finished.
Looking contemptuously at Lin Fu’s sycophantic appearance, Zhou Meng leaned back on the sofa, playing with the gun in his hand.
“From now on, we brothers will live in Silver Bay Gardens. Everyone can see that Villa No. 36 is a tough bone to chew. But I have good teeth, and my wrist is hard enough.”
Zhou Meng took a hard puff of his cigarette, spraying the smoke all over Lin Fu’s face, smiling maliciously and revealing a mouthful of yellow teeth.
“There are a total of 50 villas in Silver Bay Gardens, plus the government has just distributed relief supplies, it’s a good time for us to strike. Since we can’t take Villa No. 36 for the time being, we can start with the other villas first. There’s still plenty of time. As long as I have the entire Silver Bay Gardens in my hands, am I still afraid that Villa No. 36 will dare to oppose me?”
When the cigarette burned out, Zhou Meng pressed the cigarette butt on Lin Fu’s scalp, and the smell of burning immediately spread.
But Lin Fu didn’t dare to say a word, his gums were bleeding, his face was twisted in pain, but he still wore a smile.
“Boss Meng, which villa are you planning to start with?” Someone asked.
Villa No. 10 was located in the northeast corner of Silver Bay Gardens. Zhou Meng thought for a while before answering.
“Today, we’ll take down Nos. 9, 11, and 12 first. Then gradually expand my territory, I want to be a local emperor in the apocalypse, hahaha!”
Zhou Meng laughed wantonly, casually grabbing a dark-skinned man. “When we take down the entire villa area, I’ll make you the prime minister!”
He pointed to several other people: “You’ll be a general, you’ll be a prince, you’ll be a marquis…”
Zhou Meng was like appointing generals, assigning everyone a so-called official position, but paused when he saw Lin Fu.
“At your age, you can be the chief eunuch by my side?”
Lin Fu’s lips turned faintly white with anger, but he didn’t dare to refute in the slightest. Instead, he pinched his throat and replied, “Yes, this servant is willing to serve His Majesty!”
His words amused everyone in the room, and laughter dispelled the low pressure that permeated everyone.
Those brothers who died in the mouths of zombies were silently brushed aside.
Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, two days had passed.
There were always all kinds of smashing and screaming sounds in Silver Bay Gardens, attracting many zombies wandering outside.
Lin Qianhuan was huddled by the window of her bedroom, gnawing on sugarcane, when her phone suddenly vibrated twice.
She opened it and saw that it was a WeChat friend request from “Sheep Village One Flower” from Villa No. 26.
This person usually helped her angrily scold those brain-dead people in the group, and Lin Qianhuan’s initial impression of her was not bad, but she did not relax her vigilance.
After accepting the friend request, Lin Qianhuan typed two words in the dialog box.
HUAN: [What’s up?]
Sheep Village One Flower: [A group of bad people with weapons have mixed into our villa area, and the leader has a gun!]
HUAN: [?]
Sheep Village One Flower: [Their stronghold should be in Villa No. 10. They have occupied many villas with the weapons in their hands!]
Sheep Village One Flower: [Sister Wang from Villa No. 13 just contacted me and told me to be prepared. Her family has already suffered. In Silver Bay Gardens, I think only you are a person with relatively normal values. I know that the defense coefficient of Villa No. 36 is relatively high, but don’t take it lightly!]
Lin Qianhuan was a little surprised. She didn’t expect that this Sheep Village One Flower would actually send her a message specifically to inform her.
Her fingers tapped lightly on the keyboard.
HUAN: [Received, thank you.]
Villa No. 10 was in the northeast corner of Silver Bay Gardens, and there was always some distance from Villa No. 36.
They didn’t make too obvious movements, so Lin Qianhuan didn’t know how far these people’s power had expanded.
