You took a few steps back as Old Yang, holding a rock, charged directly at the iron door. The door was very sturdy, and despite Old Yang fiercely smashing it several tis, he couldn’t break it open. However, the door was at least deford, and just as Old Yang was preparing to apply more force, the door swung open, and two n erged.
The pair, one older and one younger, had a sowhat similar appearance, looking like father and son. The younger man’s eyelids twitched imdiately when he saw the weapons in Xia Xue and her companion’s hands, revealing a hint of panic in his eyes.
The older man was relatively composed. He cleared his throat and said to Old Yang, "Brother, this is a refuge for my son and . Please show so rcy. If you are looking for food, I’m afraid we’ll have to disappoint you."
"Are there any other people inside?" you asked the middle-aged man.
"Yes, my wife is also here. My wife and I are hotel staff. After those monsters appeared, we hid inside." The middle-aged man spoke without blinking an eye, his facial expression very calm, showing no sign of peculiarity. However, his son, wearing a pair of black-frad glasses, kept stealthily glancing at Xia Xue.
"Since there’s no food inside, how do you usually get by?"
You stared directly at the middle-aged man, and the more you spoke with him, the more suspicious he seed because he was too calm. Anyone encountering strangers ard with weapons would involuntarily show a hint of panic, yet the middle-aged man did not. It was as if you were rely there to check the water ter, nothing out of the ordinary.
The middle-aged man pointed south, "Over there, we have a vegetable greenhouse. The monsters don’t eat vegetables, so we go there for food when we’re hungry. The monsters have poor eyesight, so as long as we are quiet, they won’t notice us. Additionally, we moved so rice from the hotel beforehand, enough to sustain three of us for a short ti, until the rescue teams arrive..."
"There are no more rescue teams left. The troops from Yu City have been redeployed to other cities, and currently, we can only protect a few major cities with limited forces."
Old Yang did not seem to detect anything amiss and explained to the two n, "Moreover, zombies evolve. After the virus adapts to human bodies, it will evolve accordingly, and their evolution speeds up after it rains. At least for now, nurous evolved zombies have been discovered. Staying here is not safe. If possible, I suggest you leave with us."
You kept observing the middle-aged man, who breathed a bit more evenly upon hearing there were no rescue teams, which indicated a sigh of relief from him.
"Hmm! Hmm!" Your ears twitched slightly as you heard a faint voice of a human woman coming from below.
"Who exactly is inside?" you stepped forward, pushing the middle-aged man aside, intending to enter the basent.
Suddenly, the middle-aged man furiously pulled out a weapon and held it against your chest, "Don’t move! Everyone back off, or I’ll kill him!"
"You..." Old Yang did not expect the middle-aged man to have a weapon. He quickly stepped back, creating distance between himself and the father-son duo.
"You shouldn’t have co here." The middle-aged man’s composure changed, revealing a hint of madness on his face.
"That woman there, throw your weapon, and you, the tall one!" The young man also took out a weapon, pointing it at Xia Xue. At that mont, his face displayed a distasteful grin, simultaneously licking his lips at Xia Xue.
Xia Xue and her subordinate threw their weapons to the side, not towards the two n.
"Damn whore, wait a mont, and I’ll show you how tough I am!" The young man cursed and approached Xia Xue.
"Kid, drop your knife!" The middle-aged man pushed his weapon even closer.
"Don’t get excited, it would be bad if the gun went off."
You laughed lightly.
Raising both hands, you then released your grip on the Ring Head Knife with your right hand. As the Ring Head Knife fell, the middle-aged man’s gaze fixed on it, naturally, since it was a weapon.
However, in the instant the Ring Head Knife fell, you harshly slapped the knife handle with your right hand, driving the blade tip straight into the left foot of the middle-aged man; almost simultaneously, your left hand harshly slapped the back of the man’s right hand.
"Bang!" A bullet shot out from the barrel amidst this mont, and you miraculously saw the bullet’s trajectory, your body naturally twisted dangerously to dodge it, just grazing your left rib!
"You’re looking for death..."
Just as the young man uttered "death," a dagger, reflecting bright silver light, was already stabbed into his brow.
"Stop, or I’ll crush your neck!" Like pinching a duck’s neck, Old Yang grabbed the middle-aged man’s neck, you took the weapon from the middle-aged man’s hand, weighing it in your hand and cursed, "It seems I still lack social experience. When suspecting sothing, one should act quickly to resolve it, lest you give the enemy an opportunity."
You threw the weapon aside, not showing much interest in it at that mont, as in your view, using cold weapons was more convenient against zombies. The noise of the gun was too loud, firing one was like blowing a assembly call to the zombies.
Seeing the middle-aged man subdued, you pulled the Ring Head Knife from his foot and carefully entered the basent.
"Wait!" Xia Xue called out to you, "The situation inside is unclear, don’t go in yet."
Xia Xue’s expression was cold, but anyone could tell she was concerned for your safety.
"It’s fine, if there was any trouble, the people inside would have rushed out already."
In fact, you heard that there were no chaotic footsteps inside, but you wouldn’t directly explain it to Xia Xue; after all, this was one of your life-saving strategies.
Not long after entering the basent, a roar erupted from you: "Damn!"
Soon you rushed out of the basent, thrusting the Ring Head Knife violently into the already deceased young man and pulling out the dagger, then you turned and walked towards the middle-aged man.
"Little Li, what happened? What’s going on inside?" Old Yang saw your ashen face and wide eyes, clearly infuriated, and hurriedly asked.
You didn’t respond but in front of everyone, thrust the dagger fiercely into the middle-aged man’s abdon.
"Ah—"
As the middle-aged man scread, you had already stabbed him three tis. Seeing this, Old Yang let go of the man, but you continued to push him directly against the wall of the small house.
"What are you standing around for, go down and help!" you suddenly yelled at Old Yang.
