If you want to stay alive, you must fill your stomach, and the only chance to do so is right in front of you. Xiao Dong is already eating, and even though it’s truly intolerable, it certainly fills the stomach.
If you don’t want to beco Xiao Dong’s future food, you must eat your fill.
Xiao Dong, with slightly regained strength, noticed other companions wanting to co forward and fill their stomachs. He would not let them have their way because, in his mind, he just saw this group as reserve food.
And at this mont.
A rumbling sound ca forth.
The huge commotion grabbed everyone’s attention.
Xiao Dong gazed into the distance, his eyes wide open, as if sothing was rushing rapidly across the sea surface, creating a trailing wave.
In an instant.
Lin Fan appeared on the deck, and the mont he landed, he slled blood.
He then saw a group of emaciated survivors weakly collapsed on the ground.
He also saw the corpse and Xiao Dong standing next to it, looking up slightly, blood at the corners of Xiao Dong’s mouth.
A horrifying thought surfaced in his mind.
The other party was eating...
Lin Fan’s mind was greatly shaken. When he searched for survivors in Huang City, he encountered survivors with a disguise of innocence, intending to deceive others and then kill them for food.
At the ti, he thought such situations were rare.
But now... he knew it wasn’t rare. When the environnt becos extrely harsh, people undergo drastic changes, and things they dared not do before happen in their hands.
The living survivors looked at Lin Fan.
They didn’t know who the suddenly appearing mysterious man was.
Xiao Dong also looked at him dumbly, tightly gripping the dagger in his hand. While he seed not to show hostility, he was actually ready to attack at any mont.
Lin Fan noticed the other’s little sches.
He didn’t pay it any mind.
"He made it to Sunshine Shelter in Huang City," Lin Fan said.
As he spoke, those enduring hunger suddenly beca spirited, staring intently at Lin Fan.
"He... he made it?"
For them, this was the most exciting news.
"Yes, he risked his life to reach Sunshine Shelter, told your location, and when you see , it ans you are already safe. Once at Sunshine Shelter, you will have a new life, everything will start anew, without worry of zombies threatening you or hunger."
Lin Fan’s voice was gentle; he knew that to them, he was like a light suddenly appearing in a stretch of darkness, seemingly dazzling yet dreamlike, easily leading to disbelief.
"That’s great, truly great."
"Ugh... we’ve waited so long."
"All of this is real, not an illusion, not a delusion."
Their eyes were initially dull and dim—that was the despair for the future; they were even pushed by the environnt to beco like their forr companions, turning into beasts, joining the group gnawing on flesh to survive.
Once gnawing on flesh, one could never again beco truly human, living like beasts from then on, becoming another nace amidst the apocalypse.
Seeing the light gradually returning to their eyes, Lin Fan showed a gratified smile. It was tily; if he had co a bit later, the consequences would have been dire.
Clang!
The dagger in Xiao Dong’s hand fell to the ground with a crisp sound.
"I..."
He opened his mouth, bloodstained and resembling a human in appearance, yet he was only clad in human skin; his heart, his actions had transcended human boundaries.
He had completely sunk into the apocalypse.
Lin Fan looked at him calmly.
"What do you want to say?"
Xiao Dong said, "Can I go?"
Lin Fan shook his head, "Sorry, Sunshine Shelter in Huang City is not up to alone. Regarding your actions, I can’t accept them for now. You might say the environnt forced you to do this; I can understand that, but understanding is one thing. That place isn’t suitable for you. I offer you two paths: first, you remain on the ship, second, I’ll take you to the shore, and you can figure out how to live in the apocalypse."
Upon hearing these words.
Xiao Dong was dumbstruck, staring at Lin Fan.
Both options were dead ends.
Is there a way to survive?
Reaching the shore, those zombies would undoubtedly tear him into pieces, leaving no trace.
"Can you give a chance?" Xiao Dong pleaded bitterly, hoping the other might take him to Sunshine Shelter.
"Sorry, no." Lin Fan turned around after speaking, attending to the other survivors’ conditions, soothing their hearts, and assuring them that everything was over.
At this mont.
Xiao Dong slowly crouched, picking up the dagger from the ground, a fierce light rising in his eyes.
"Damn it, die."
Xiao Dong, having regained so strength, roared, holding the dagger with both hands, viciously stabbing toward Lin Fan’s waist.
"Ah."
With his back to Xiao Dong, Lin Fan sighed, turned around, kicked out with a bang, a strong force swept over, instantly knocking Xiao Dong unconscious, sending him flying like a cannonball, disappearing without a trace.
"I didn’t expect him to ambush ; you saw it, I could only counterattack." Lin Fan said solemnly, with witnesses right in front of him, the opponent holding a sharp, shiny dagger, capable of stabbing with the slightest carelessness.
