In the crowd, an old man stepped out and stopped a few people from quarreling.
"Lu Bo, you’d better explain things clearly to ! What’s going on with Su Ya? Did you see her killed by Savardo with your own eyes?"
The old man stared sharply at the other, his deanor imposing, suggesting he once held a position of so status.
The man nad Lu Bo seed to instinctively fear him; with the rebuke, he subconsciously wilted a bit.
But he quickly reacted, realizing it’s now the apocalypse, and there’s no reason for a grown man like him to fear him.
"Yuno! Stop throwing your weight around here! You’re just a retired sheriff! It’s the apocalypse now, you can’t boss around!"
Lu Bo jumped up like a cat whose tail had been stepped on and loudly shouted at the old man:
"And I’ve already said! There were five Savardos chasing us! Su Ya alone stopped them! Whether she can survive, it’s not up to ! Or you!"
He vented loudly, and then, seeing everyone fall silent, he slumped in defeat, murmuring:
"Do you think I want her dead? Su Ya is the only genetic warrior among us, only with her alive can we survive! What good does her death do ?"
"Power? Worthless power! Leading a bunch of old, weak, sick, and disabled, what do I want with that power?"
"Anyway, the five Savardos surrounded her together; that’s the last image I saw, whether she survives, you think about it yourself."
Having said that, he walked aside with his bag in hand, sat by a bar counter, and stared in a daze at the cinema doors.
Others also fell silent at this mont, what Lu Bo had said was already clear.
Though not professionals, the crowd knew full well that facing five Savardos at the sa ti ant no chance of survival, even for a genetic warrior.
The hall fell into silence for quite a while.
The survivors understood the situation they were facing now, and no one continued to quarrel; everyone bowed their heads and remained silent.
After a mont, finally, a voice broke the silence.
"Then, our migration plan, should we continue it?"
The speaker was a middle-aged woman who seed to have maintained herself well.
But after months of apocalypse life, even the prettiest woman could hardly look attractive now.
The other eleven people all turned to look at her when they heard this, but no one wanted to answer the question.
Everyone knew that the migration seed impossible now.
It was already a very dangerous thing, and now with the loss of Su Ya as their strongest force, even encountering a single Savardo on the way ant collective doom.
"Why not go?"
At this mont, a cold voice suddenly ca from outside the door.
"You’re really being reckless, so loud; I can hear you arguing here from the street outside. Aren’t you afraid of attracting monsters?"
Su Ya led Narui and Hank inside first.
Seeing this scene, several survivors were montarily stunned, and then, realizing, they showed expressions of imnse joy.
"Boss Su! You didn’t die! You’re back!"
A boy who looked about fifteen or sixteen ran out from the crowd, opening his arms to hug Su Ya.
"Youlian! Are you ignoring my words? Dare you shout again!"
Su Ya pushed him away, then walked to the middle of the crowd.
"Xiao... Xiao Su Ya, are you really alright... Lu Bo said that you were surrounded by five Savardos, I thought..."
Old Sheriff Yuno ca over, excitedly took her hand and looked her over, fearing that he was dreaming.
Su Ya had already healed her injuries and changed into Narui’s clean clothes, showing no sign of the previous battle with mutants.
"I’m fine, Uncle Yuno, Lu Bo was right, I was indeed surrounded by five monsters, but then soone ca to save ..."
She briefly recounted the situation; even so, it still shocked everyone.
"Yovan, did they all die..."
Among the crowd, there were also two friends of the deceased, who, upon learning they had been killed by monsters, couldn’t help but show a sad expression.
For a mont, the joy of Su Ya’s return was greatly diluted.
The crowd felt a sense of despondency; even amid the apocalypse, witnessing the death of companions still resulted in an inevitable sadness.
Su Ya, Hank, and Lu Bo tacitly chose not to reveal the truth about the encounter with Savardo.
This was also to leave Yovan, their companion of over thirty days, with the last bit of dignity.
"Alright, we didn’t co back empty-handed; I have good news..."
Su Ya broke the silence first.
She began by introducing Narui to everyone, and then, amidst everyone’s puzzled gazes, started explaining the truth of the Crimson Light disaster.
The developnt of events naturally resembled what had happened before; initially, everyone looked unbelieving, but eventually, they agreed, albeit skeptically, after Su Ya’s constant explanation.
Then it was ti to shatter everyone’s worldview, as Su Ya introduced the matters concerning the Star Alliance.
This made everyone uneasy, simply because the notion seed too bizarre to believe.
Although everyone wanted to believe it was true, after suffering in the apocalypse for so long, they couldn’t afford even the tiniest joke.
Finally, Su Ya took out supplies and firearms given by Zhang Xiaoman and let two Star Guards on alert outside co in as corroboration, which successfully convinced all survivors.
Faced with this scene, the people naturally wept with joy; if their wish had to be stated, it was simple—to survive.
Now, suddenly having such a powerful support, they saw hope for survival in this desperate apocalypse.
During the ti Su Ya was introducing the Star Alliance to everyone, Zhang Xiaoman took a turn nearby on the Purple Cloud Divine Sword.
To ensure the smooth execution of the upcoming action, he used his Spiritual Vision ability to clear all mutants along the route.
Aside from the Guleng Star’s residents turned mutants, there were also so mutated from animals.
They looked sowhat like pets such as cats and dogs from Water Blue Star, now all turned into terrifying flesh-eating monsters.
Finally, after clearing the mutants near this road, Zhang Xiaoman directly activated Unlimited Teleportation to return next to Narui—where he had placed the Star Alliance Marker.
Seeing the figure suddenly appear out of nowhere, everyone imdiately understood, this must be the Lord Jixing who ca to save them.
"Lord Jixing, we’ve prepared everything here, ready to set off anyti."
Su Ya ran over to report the situation.
Zhang Xiaoman nodded and checked the ti.
Now there were roughly four hours until dawn, so walking to Building 3375 next door would be easy.
Ti was precious, he didn’t delay, imdiately instructing Su Ya to organize their departure.
Everyone was still a bit dazed by the many events that had happened that night, making it hard to adapt suddenly.
One by one, they packed their things under Su Ya’s urging, feeling as if in a dream even at the last mont before departure, surprised by how they were suddenly embarking on a spontaneous journey with no ntal preparation.
