Something happened. This is not going to be bloody.

After the five people registered, they ignored the three little boys.

After all, it is the end of the world now. The trio does not know that Fang Zhen has spatial abilities, and Fang Zhen knows that his wife does not have any abilities. Jia'an is too young and there are too many variables. They are already struggling to make ends meet, so they do not have the love to help others.

There is nothing wrong with being self-sufficient when you are poor. What is wrong is that the rich do not help the world, but instead point fingers at the poor for being self-sufficient.

Fang Zhen still stopped where he was and listened. The staff said that those with special abilities under the age of ten without guardians would be taken directly to the inner city for training. The three kids would probably have a better life there. Although he didn't know what would happen to the two little boys without special abilities, they were eventually sent to the outer city.

All five people completed registration, and after inspection and waiting in the examination room, they finally arrived at the outer city.

The five-member team went directly to the management office and rented a three-bedroom, one-living-room house. Even the decoration and furniture inside were still intact, but there were no daily necessities.

A happy family must have lived here before. There is even a climbing wall designed for children on the wall of the second bedroom.

Unfortunately, times have changed. The house they worked so hard to buy all their lives has now been recycled and rented out to a group of five people. It shows that if you want a stable life, you can't avoid being a leek.

Finally arriving at a relatively stable environment, the five-member team happily cooked a big pot of instant noodles to celebrate.

Fang Zhen looked at the three people feasting and said:

"Although the journey has been bumpy, we have now arrived at the Zhang City base. Our safety is guaranteed to a certain extent. You can stay. The two of us plan to rest for two more days before setting off to visit Quanshui County."

Qian Liang looked at Fang Zhen with resentful eyes and said:

"Brother Fang, we have been friends for a long time. It's not easy to find a teammate who can stand behind you at this time, and the three of us are not holding back. Are you planning to abandon me now?"

Fang Zhen was indeed disgusted by the other party. He pouted and said:

"Please be normal. I'm doing this for your own good! As you've seen today, this base is not an ordinary base. It has cannons, machine guns, flamethrowers, and the people in the inner city are well-trained and very united. There's even a comprehensive supermarket in the base. It's better to be here than to continue taking risks."

Qian Rou couldn't help but say:

"Don't talk nonsense. So many people died today. If it weren't for Sister Ye protecting us, we would all be dead. Sister Ye and I are locked together. No one can separate us. Besides, if we need to run away, can you hold my sister Ye and run away? This month is very important. We can't be tossed around."

Li Xu looked at the brother and sister with a look that said, "You are all sick." These two people really made him realize what he was thinking. He glared at them with contempt and said,

"What are you two talking about? You call her Sister Ye every day. Xiaoqiu obviously looks younger than both of you. Besides, aren't we helping each other? We are a team. Qian Rou can hold Xiaoqiu and run away at the critical moment, Qian Liang can be a fireman, and I...I can build a simple mud house in the wild to rest. What a perfect combination."

Qian Liang turned his head to look at Fang Zhen and said, "Brother Fang, if you are afraid of danger, why don't you stay at the base? We will take Sister Ye to visit your hometown and then come back to pick you up."

Fang Zhen was speechless. So he was redundant! He knew their thoughts. It was just that the space had not been exposed to the three of them, and Jia'an's affairs were still hidden, so they wanted to act alone. Thinking carefully, the three of them were indeed good teammates along the way. Otherwise, they might steal his wife away one day.

Fang Zhen replied: "Okay then, let's rest for two more days and then go to Quanshui County."

The three nodded obediently.

The rent of the base is calculated on a daily basis. After all, no one can guarantee that they can survive safely until the next day, so there are staff members who come to collect rent every day. The rent is naturally in the form of food or crystal cores.

The five-member team stayed for three days and then left the base. They set out from the Zhangshi base and got a car on the way to Quanshui County.

The journey was exceptionally smooth and quiet, but the shriveled corpses of creatures on the roadside showed that the flying insects were not only attacking the Zhang City base, but they were indiscriminately attacking any species with blood.

Fang Zhen's face became more and more ugly. He seemed to have seen the scene of his relatives being killed in his mind.

In two days, the five-member team entered the territory of Quanshui County. After walking for another half a day, they saw the village where Fang Zhen's parents lived - Liutiaozhuang - from afar near noon.

What they saw made the five people a little confused.

Everything in Liutiaozhuang seemed to be unchanged from before the end of the world. There were no fences outside the village, and crops were still growing in the fields. There seemed to be smoke floating above the chimneys, and the environment was so quiet that it was silent.

This place is completely different from other villages encountered along the way, giving people a hazy feeling of paradise.

Fang Zhen frowned and said, "What's going on? Nothing happened here? There are mummies in the neighboring village, and here..."

Li Xu didn't say anything. He took a step back with a pale face, saying:

"This place... this place is very strange, let's observe it."

The other four people took a step back after hearing what Li Xu said. His premonitions had never been wrong along the way.

Zhou Leng couldn't sense the distance. All she could feel was the extremely rich wood element filling the surroundings.

The five-member team did not dare to walk into the village rashly. They stopped at a distance and waited for Li Xu to build a simple mud house. They planned to observe for a night before making any decision.

They rested for half a day and one night. When it was getting dark, Qian Rou, who was sitting on the roof on guard, saw a shocking scene.

The willow tree at the entrance of the village, which they saw normally during the day, seemed to come alive. It stretched its body, and as its branches swayed, human-shaped creatures appeared among the swaying willow leaves.

"Hey, hey, hey, come out and look at the willow tree at the entrance of the village. Quickly, what's going on? Has it become a spirit or has it eaten a human being and vomited it out?"

The other four people stuck their heads out and saw that the willow tree seemed to be turning over, and many humanoid creatures broke away from it. Large areas of willow leaves broke away from the trunk and dissipated. They did not fall to the ground, nor did they fly in the wind, but they dissipated invisibly.

Zhou Leng couldn't see the specific situation, but the extremely rich wood element was dissipating at a very fast speed.

About ten minutes later, there were only twenty or so people left under the willow tree at the entrance of the village. They looked around blankly and then ran away in all directions.

Fang Zhen carefully identified these people. Most of them were young people in the village. None of his parents were among the twenty or so people. The most familiar faces were his neighbor Dacheng's wife, Wang Lin, and her children.

The five-member team looked at each other, unable to figure out what was going on.
