The seven remaining members of Liu Xuezhou’s team were all men, varying in age. However, the one thing they had in common was their seemingly expressionless faces, giving off a sense of indifference that didn’t resemble the gaze of comrades. Fu Shinan furrowed her brow, becoming even more cautious.

Ji Zan also noticed and turned his face slightly to Fu Shinan, saying, “Follow behind me. If there’s any danger, run immediately.”

Fu Shinan smirked and said, “I have confidence in you.” In her opinion, even the strongest person needs encouragement, especially in times like these, where discouraging words should be avoided.

Ji Zan’s gaze changed slightly, nodding in response to Fu Shinan’s words.

Meanwhile, Liu Xuezhou pointed to three people from his group and said,

“Follow them and go inside.”

A woman in her forties and two middle-aged men walked over upon seeing the assigned group. Fu Shinan was surprised by the three individuals, as they didn’t seem to possess any combat skills. However, now was not the time to discuss this, and everyone had to remain vigilant.

Just then, two dark figures swiftly pounced towards the group.

“It’s zombie dogs!” someone exclaimed, followed by the sound of gunshots as the zombie dogs fell to the ground.

“Not bad,” Liu Xuezhou looked enviously at the gun in Ji Zan’s hand. Having a gun was indeed convenient.

Ji Zan calmly said, “Don’t waste time, let’s continue.”

The group moved forward, arriving at the iron fence that Ji Zan’s group had scouted the day before.

Their footsteps awakened the zombies inside, and howls echoed from the darkness.

Although Liu Xuezhou’s group didn’t have guns, they wielded iron rods and showed no mercy when dealing with the zombies. They also seemed familiar with the route.

However, they seemed to underestimate the number of zombies, and four to five more appeared.

Hearing the howls of those creatures, Fu Shinan couldn’t help but shiver. She took several deep breaths to calm her emotions, reminding herself to remain calm and composed in dangerous situations. Standing at the back, she aimed at a zombie lunging towards Da Fei, and with a steady finger, she pulled the trigger.

With a loud bang, the zombie’s head exploded.

Xia Dong couldn’t help but exclaim, “Sister Fu, you’re so accurate!”

Just as he spoke, Liu Xuezhou shouted, “This wont work, we can’t afford to waste bullets. You guys retreat first. We have more people, so we’ll lure the zombies away, and then you can quickly go in and seize the food!”

Ji Zan immediately said, “You go ahead, I’ll lead them away.”

Liu Xuezhou shouted, “We have a wind ability user in our team who can speed things up. It’s more suitable for us to go. You guys quickly go in and take as much as you can. We’ll split it evenly once we’re out!” Then he yelled, “Zhuangzi, use your ability.”

A tall and thin man pressed his hands against the ground, and two small wind spheres, about the size of a palm, surged under everyone’s feet.

Liu Xuezhou shouted, “Run!”

Benefiting from the gust of wind, the group’s speed increased as they led the zombies towards another section of the fence.

Sun Han peeked out and said, “Brother Ji, it’s about time. Let’s hurry inside.”

But at that moment, the middle-aged woman beside Fu Shinan suddenly took a step back and refused to move forward. Fu Shinan noticed her reaction, especially the fear in her eyes, causing her to hesitate for a moment.

At the same time, Ji Zan and his group had already entered.

Fu Shinan asked coldly, “Why aren’t you moving?

The middle-aged woman bit her lip and trembled as she took a few steps forward but refused to continue.

Fu Shinan aimed her gun at her and asked, “What are you afraid of?”

“Nothing, let’s… let’s go inside quickly,” the woman said, then reluctantly entered, resigned to her fate.

MO Cheng, who had been by Fu Shinan’s side, quickly asked, “Fu Jie, what’s wrong?

Fu Shinan whispered, “Keep an eye on these three people. I’ll go inform Ji Zan.

Something’s not right with them.”

MO Cheng nodded, taking over Fu Shinan’s position and staying alert.

Fu Shinan hurriedly walked over to Ji Zan but before she could speak, she heard the iron gate behind her being closed!

Xia Dong rushed over, cursing, “Who the hell did that? Locking the gate? Are they crazy?”

At that moment, the middle-aged woman suddenly rushed forward, shouting in frenzy, “I don’t want to die! I don’t want to die! I still have value, I have value…” She ended up collapsing on the iron fence, her head hanging weakly.

The other two middle-aged men wore indifferent expressions, remaining silent..
