Apocalypse: the Most Ruthless Person

”Damn it, is this some experiment from the science department?”

Pan Guoliang’s face was grim as he looked at the explosion upstairs, wondering how many harmful things that laboratory had concocted.

”No, it’s the zombies that have gotten stronger from the snow!” Yuwen analyzed confidently, providing an answer to everyone’s doubts.

But despite his answer, the problem persisted and wasn’t solved...

”Can we handle this?”

”Feels like one zombie now is stronger than three before, can’t beat them...”

”Hard to say, we have a lot of people here, and the brothers from the Yama Corps are around, should be fine.”

Downstairs, the situation made some fighters hesitant; everyone had basic judgment. The zombies rushing into the mall were several levels stronger than before, and a mistake in a confrontation could easily lead to death!

Of course, this didn’t include the Yama Corps members. Their combat beliefs were firm, and they had confidence in their skills.

”What are you all doing, only good at bullying the weak? When faced with something tough, you cower? If you’re a coward, drop your weapons and head downstairs to the Soul-Devouring Cave and sell yourselves! Those who are not cowards, follow me downstairs! Hah, spit!”

Wu Baokang returned and felt the unease among the team. He glanced at everyone disdainfully; he had little respect for the other fighters to begin with, and now he made no effort to hide his contempt, spitting in front of those who looked fearful.

”Cut the crap, I’m not afraid at all!”

Lu Yubo raised his food sampler, looking defiant and skeptical, suspecting that the other was insulting indirectly.

Wu Baokang sneered impatiently, ”I’m talking about these cowards, don’t find trouble!”

”President, what do we do?”

Wu Daqiang took a deep breath and turned to Li Zongkai.

”There’s no other choice, get ready to kill zombies!”

Li Zongkai didn’t hesitate for a moment. The choice this time wasn’t about loyalty, but a practical judgment—if they didn’t fight together with their numbers, they’d be picked off by the zombies one by one!

”Zombies have been strengthened. Warriors, you’re fearless and invincible. Trust me, we can defeat them. Charge!”

Yuwen saw the change in the zombies and felt the pressure, but retreating wasn’t an option, nor was he just shouting empty slogans. After coming to Lego Mall, he picked up a gun for the first time and was the first to run toward the stairs, moving swiftly, exemplifying resilience.

Following closely behind, other Yama Corps members stationed at Lego Mall joined in. The zombies were strong, but retreating before them meant losing face as Yama Corps.

Whether it was Zhang Ya or the tech-specialized Wu Lue and Liu Tianji, they all followed closely behind Lu Yubo, Pan Guoliang, and the others, expressions serious but steps unhesitant.

Da-da, da-da, da-da-da...

Before going downstairs, Tan Huajun started shooting from above. After some time in training, she had come to a better understanding of her talent, and her gun skills had become more proficient.

A few shots downed two or three zombies instantly, but sadly it didn’t save the lives of ordinary members directly, since these zombies had already achieved kills, happily enjoying their blood feast with bloody mouths and human tissue between their teeth, gruesome.

”Well done, fat sister, sniper position is yours, brothers, charge!”

Wu Baokang waved his arm and led the crowd toward the safety corridor.

No one dared to doubt Tan Huajun, who stayed upstairs shooting—even before combat, she already had kills, and her marksmanship was acknowledged by all. Given a gun and a relatively safe sniper position, she could create maximum value!

After such encouragement, those who were fearful gradually grew brave. The zombies previously roaming from Sun City Pedestrian Street numbered just a few dozen, and they had nearly fifty fierce fighters—what’s the problem with a one-on-two battle?

Yet, they didn’t know, as the mall’s back door was being banged on, opposite Lego Mall at Freeport Office Building’s ground floor, the plywood barricade had broken. A flood of zombies that couldn’t fit into the ground floor hall began surging out.

After squeezing out of the office building, zombies lingered at the chaotic, desolate parking lot, but screams from Lego Mall suddenly pierced the quiet atmosphere, and the zombies turned collectively, flowing like water from Freeport Office Building toward Lego Mall.

The fighters inside the mall moved quickly downstairs. About fifty fighters encountered the first wave of zombies heading upstairs at the second-floor corner!

In the past, zombies could climb stairs, but due to their stiff joints, they moved very slowly, often stumbling and crawling, taking ages to climb one floor. Now it’s different; zombies climbed stairs much faster!

”Don’t shoot, it may cause friendly fire, hand-to-hand combat, hand-to-hand combat!”

Wu Baokang shouted loudly. As he rushed downstairs, surpassing Yama Corps members at the front, he hadn’t expected to meet zombies head-on. In the cramped, dark stairwell, shooting would be suicidal!

After alerting his companions, he soared into a kick.

Thud!

The zombie initially scrambling to sprint toward them took a solid hit to the chest and fell backward immediately, knocking a few zombies behind into rolling balls, straight down to the first and a half floor.

”I fuckin’ damn it!”
