Thud thud thud.
The old man listened to the footsteps outside coming closer, and tightly gripped the fire axe in his hand.
In the doomsday, they had encountered other survivors before.
The law of the jungle, survival of the fittest.
Conflicts usually erupted, with the strong plundering the weak’s resources.
If they t soone more brutal, they might even kill.
Brother Li heard the footsteps outside and gestured to the others beside him, signaling everyone to prepare for battle.
Strangers were very likely to beco enemies.
In such situations, begging for rcy was pointless; only counterattack could bring a sliver of hope.
The footsteps outside suddenly stopped.
"Brother Long, there’s nothing inside, no people either," the person said to Zheng Xiaolong after entering the room.
Hiding in the kitchen, the group heard this and did not lower their guard.
Who knew if this was a trick to lure them out.
Zheng Xiaolong, holding a gun, entered the room and scanned around; it was scattered with garbage and water, mud everywhere.
He was about to turn around and leave.
Suddenly, he spotted a footprint in the corner of the wall; it seed to be fresh.
Seeing the footprint, Zheng Xiaolong smiled slightly and gestured to his subordinates.
Indicating them to co in and search, he shouted, "If there’s nothing here, then let’s go."
"Whew whew—"
The teenager in the kitchen heard Brother Long’s words and breathed a sigh of relief.
However, as he was exhaling, a shadow appeared at the kitchen doorway.
Saying to Zheng Xiaolong at the back, "Brother Long, there’s soone here!"
Thunk!
A fire axe precisely struck at the person’s neck.
With no hesitation, the old man acted first.
After dealing with the person, he saw the gun in the person’s hand and snatched it without hesitation.
At the sa ti, Zheng Xiaolong turned his head upon hearing his subordinate’s voice.
He saw the old man kill his subordinate.
Furious, he opened fire.
Bang bang bang!
Simultaneously, others also fired towards the kitchen.
The old man quickly used the dead body as a human shield to block in front of him.
He shouted to the others in the kitchen, "Escape through the window!"
Bang!
A bullet passed through the body in front and hit his belly.
The old man was a war veteran, though long retired, he was familiar with guns.
Enduring the pain, he fought back while covering the retreat of three others.
His grandson was among them.
Brother Li saw the old man blocking the enemies and hesitated, but with no guns, only cold weapons, they could only escape.
Grinding his teeth, he made a ruthless decision, pulling the teenager, climbed the window and ran outside.
The teenager watched his grandpa get shot and shouted, "Grandpa!"
"Xiao Li, quickly take them out," the old man shouted, fiercely wielding his gun and firing at the people outside.
The teenager didn’t want to leave but was pushed out the window by Brother Li, followed by another woman, and then he ran out too.
After running out, he saw the old man get shot again.
How could one person resist dozens?
"Old Zhang, go."
The old man waved his hand weakly, saying, "Go quickly, take good care of...."
Bang!
A bullet hit his vital spot, and the old man fell silent.
"Shit! Don’t let a single one escape," Zheng Xiaolong roared at his subordinates.
They had just started searching and already had a subordinate killed.
These survivors didn’t have guns; if Gagaga and the others knew, they’d laugh themselves to death.
"Brother Long, they ran through the window," a subordinate shouted to Zheng Xiaolong after rushing in.
"Then what are you waiting for, chase them," Zheng Xiaolong said furiously.
The subordinates quickly chased after.
Zheng Xiaolong walked up to his slain subordinate and saw the old man with the full head of white hair, kicked him.
Clang!
A glass jar fell from the old man, hitting the ground.
Shattered.
The cockroaches inside crawled out from the broken jar.
Scattered.
Zheng Xiaolong looked at the old man’s wound.
Through the bullet hole, he could see the old man was skin and bones, with barely any flesh on his face.
"Disgusting, he barely has any at," Zheng Xiaolong said to the few subordinates remaining, "Load these two bodies onto the car."
After speaking, he walked out of the room.
Once outside, he saw over a dozen subordinates escorting a man and a woman forward.
The man’s calves were injured, and the woman’s forearm was shot.
"Is everyone here?" Zheng Xiaolong asked.
"One escaped," a subordinate said awkwardly after a mont.
"What are you doing, how could you let him escape?" Zheng Xiaolong frowned.
But upon seeing the woman, his expression improved significantly.
"Alright, load her onto the car," Zheng Xiaolong said, staring at the woman.
Speaking of the Fraud Group, at his level, he rarely encountered won.
Pah!
Seeing Zheng Xiaolong’s gaze, the woman spat out bloody foam.
Zheng Xiaolong quickly dodged and laughed, "Hey, quite the fiery character."
Upon hearing this, Brother Li, who had been keeping his head down, suddenly erupted in an attempt to resist.
