Apocalypse: the Most Ruthless Person

When Zhang Su helped Zheng Xinyu to stand up, he turned his head to see Meng Changwei and others with pale faces sticking their heads out from behind the carriage.

“Master Zhang… This… This damn…”

Meng Changwei’s face twitched as he looked at the scene before him, too scared to utter a complete sentence.

They were very formidable, but mainly in dealing with zombies. They had never experienced such a large-scale conflict among humans. They believed the purpose of firearms was deterrence, not actually firing them…

When the bloody warfare appeared before their eyes, when a line of lives was mercilessly cut down, when the smell of smoke lingered beneath their noses, the people of Bridge Town witnessed how brutal the battle between similar beings was.

More intense than fighting zombies, leaving no room.

“If I don’t strike, he’ll strike!”

Zhang Su hurriedly explained, then turned to look at his companions slowly rising from the ground, asking, “Is everyone okay?”

“Damn it, unlucky to get hit once, but thankfully the bulletproof vest is sturdy!”

Zhao Dezhu patted his chest, his expression somewhat distorted.

“Same here, it hurts so much!”

“Brother Su, Master Jia got shot in the leg, what should we do?”

Lü Leiyang supported Jia Shiqin, and together they walked out of the self-rescue team, being more closely connected.

“First, perform emergency bleeding control! Xiaolü, drive that van to send Master Jia back to camp, let Nurse Zhong treat him! Quick, don’t delay!”

Zhang Su held a Zombie Thalamus in his arms, but at this moment with so many prying eyes, he didn’t want to expose it. Zhong Xiaoshan didn’t follow this trip. Driving back to Celestial Horse Island took half an hour at most, totally feasible, and the van Lü Leiyang was driving was precisely loaded with numerous zombie corpses.

“Eh, alright!”

Everyone immediately got busy.

“Boss, they actually have bulletproof vests…”

The people of Bridge Town heard Zhang Su’s group speaking and couldn’t help but look on enviously.

“Their gear is really damn good!”

Meng Changwei lamented, the gap between people is indeed vast.

If he knew that Celestial Horse Island used something not a bulletproof vest but a material extracted from zombies, he would wonder what he’d think…

“Brother Su, there’s a situation over there!” Chen Hanzhou frowned, looking toward the direction of the wall, and whispered.

Just as they started cleaning up the debris, at the spot of the wall collapsed by grenade explosions, over thirty zombies wobbly appeared, seemingly having been trapped somewhere before, now all emerging.

In no time, more than a hundred zombies poured in through the breach, far exceeding the number of remaining zombies on the road!

“Use guns, don’t engage in close combat, if there’s a Venom Zombie, it’s troublesome!”

Zhang Su stopped his companions as they picked up weapons ready to face the zombies. Anyway, there had already been a round of intense firefight before, now there’s no need to care too much. If the distant zombies really are drawn back, just drive away, then resume the work from the morning.

Meng Changwei nodded vigorously: “Yes, that’s right, everyone use your guns to shoot, this is a rare chance for real combat, make good use of it!”

From his words, it could be heard that the people of Bridge Town seldom had opportunities to use their guns. The actual situation was indeed so. The simple motions were mimicked well, but their shooting accuracy was poor, often taking a magazine to kill two or three.

This phenomenon drew glances from Zhang Su and others, hearing the da-da-da, rat-tat-tat sounds from Bridge Town side but hardly seeing any zombies struck down!

If there were no Celestial Horse Island people, relying solely on Bridge Town crowd, dealing with over a hundred zombies wasn’t hard, but to use guns to kill them would be difficult, as the bullets they carried were insufficient…

Finally, Zhang Su ordered a swift battle, followed by a burst of concentrated gunfire, clinking empty shell casings hitting the ground, and the zombies were all eradicated, falling on the already devastated ground, adding to the desolate scene of the broken camp.

After clearing the zombies, no one dared to relax, worried more zombies would be drawn by the gunfire sound. Fortunately, the zombies driven away earlier were far enough not to be drawn back!

“Brother Su, I’m taking Master Jia away first.”

While everyone was cleaning up zombies, Lü Leiyang had given Jia Shiqin’s wound some simple treatment, now putting him on the car.

“Go ahead, we’ll head back after finishing up here. Be careful on the road, if you encounter zombies, accelerate, and don’t lead them home.”

“Eh, I got it!”

With that, Lü Leiyang hopped in the car, stomped on the gas and left the camp.

“Heh, don’t say it, when the sissy gets serious, he has a touch of heroism.”

Zhao Dezhu chuckled, teasing.

“Zhuzi, don’t let Teacher Xiaoyu get heartbroken.”

Zhang Su casually said.

Before Zhao Dezhu could figure it out, Zheng Xinyu came close to Zhang Su, nudged his waist, and quietly asked, “Are you okay?”

Zhang Su was slightly surprised. Seeing Zheng Xinyu’s gaze, he immediately understood what she meant about being okay, so he shook his head and replied, “I’m fine.”

Zheng Xinyu earnestly stared at Zhang Su for a while, pinched his face, seemingly confirming something before finally feeling relieved.

At this moment, Meng Changwei brought people over.

“Master Zhang, you guys… have some kind of feud with them, huh? Wow, really startled me!”

Meng Changwei spoke, lifting the black cloth covering his eyes to wipe it, seemingly getting uncomfortable from being soaked in sweat.

Earlier, he had only heard rumors that certain survivor teams allegedly had gunfights with another group, with many dead. Today, seeing it happen in front of him felt completely different.

“Feud? Speaking of it, the story isn’t long…”

Zhang Su pulled out a cigarette, offering it around, then after lighting up, he shared the story between Celestial Horse Island and Kuanzhuang with the people of Bridge Town.

“We just finished discussing compensation. Before I had a chance to talk about merging, they double-crossed. Didn’t see that coming…”

After listening, Meng Changwei finished a cigarette at the right time, threw it to the ground, and stomped it out, sighing, “People’s hearts are separated by a belly. Damn, dealing with people is not good at all. If the Cyan Dragon Corps hadn’t picked a fight, we were living comfortably up in the mountains. Come spring next year, we could cultivate ten acres, and we’d be good to live!”

Previously, when faced with Lei Youliang’s questioning, Meng Changwei felt almost no emotional ripple. Whether with Kuanzhuang or Celestial Horse Island, it was the first meeting, but before this, he just had a few hours of collaboration with Celestial Horse Island.

If given a choice, Meng Changwei would prefer to stay neutral, not wanting to stir the muddy waters. But if forced to choose a side, he would unhesitatingly choose Celestial Horse Island, as there’s at least some familiarity.

“No need to mention Cyan Dragon Corps anymore, they are now in this state. Truly those who bring it upon themselves can’t live!”

Zhang Su looked around somewhat sentimentally. The ground was strewn with zombie corpses, making human identification difficult. Only patches of blood indicated places where someone might have been bitten by zombies.

“Oh, Master Zhang, earlier you spoke of survivors. Look at this scene, even immortals would bury here, where would there be living people? How about… Let’s move the stuff?”

Having worked all day just for gathering supplies, he could barely wait any longer.

Zhang Su was not as urgent as Meng Changwei, his mind pondering other matters. Currently, his mind was indicating [3/38], but the vast camp was silent, with only these people present, looking nothing like there were humans.

“Could it be that those who survived have escaped?”

Zhang Su furrowed his brow, murmuring, thinking if they indeed fled, he would have difficulty handling it. Even if all died, his challenge would be smoothly completed, now this standstill was unsettling.

“What? Who’s alive?” Meng Changwei didn’t hear clearly, asked.

“Um, Boss Meng, be honest, have you seen any survivors escaping from the Cyan Dragon Corps over the last two days?”

Zhang Su earnestly asked.

Meng Changwei shook his head vigorously: “No, not even seeing anyone escaping from the Cyan Dragon Corps. Haven’t seen any survivor anywhere, only you guys, and those lying there…”

As he spoke, he humorously pointed at the corpses sprawled around the warehouse door.
