The town is not large, only about five kilometers from north to south.
The streets were deserted and completely silent!
There wasn't even a trace of zombies.
A straight asphalt road leads to the town's main street!
At the end of the asphalt road, several figures were slowly approaching the town.
The leader was a tall man who wielded two giant hammers.
The giant hammer was covered in dried bloodstains!
The people behind them were covered in wounds, and two of them even had their thighs, which should have been intact, now completely missing, with only their torn trouser legs swaying in the wind.
It was the Star Team that had traveled north from Tiande City!
Despite their injuries, the six members looked at the imposing figure with deep respect.
Looking at the town in the distance, Meng Xinghun, the team leader, frowned slightly.
"There's a small town ahead. Nobody's had a proper rest these past few days!"
"Follow me, let's go to this town to rest!"
The six people behind him nodded quickly.
"Yes, Captain! If it weren't for you, how could we have escaped Tiande City! We would probably be ashes by now!"
A teammate standing nearby frowned.
"Does this make us deserters?"
No sooner had he finished speaking than the chubby man standing to the side looked furious.
"What deserters! Are we the kind of people who are afraid of death?"
"Damn it! Seriously! We risked our lives on this mission, and this is what we got..."
Before he could finish speaking, Captain Meng Xinghun's expression hardened.
"Enough said! This is war! Sacrifices are inevitable!"
"Death is inevitable for everyone; it may be as weighty as Mount Tai or as light as a feather!"
"Just be more careful on your own from now on!"
Upon hearing this, the group had no choice but to give up.
Soon, led by Meng Xinghun, a group of people arrived in the town.
Looking at the deserted town in front of him, Meng Xinghun frowned slightly.
"Follow me! Let's check if there are any supplies here!"
The group walked down the street, completely unaware that pairs of eyes were staring at them from the shops on either side.
Soon, the group arrived at the entrance of a supermarket.
The entrance has been blocked off by a fence!
Meng Xinghun slowly walked forward and grabbed the handle with one hand.
The thick arm suddenly exerted force!
The gate was lifted up instantly!
Meng Xinghun looked into the supermarket, a hint of disappointment appearing on his usually resolute and decisive face.
The entire supermarket was in a mess, and the shelves were completely empty!
It looked as if it had been looted!
"Come in, all of you! It seems this is an empty town!"
The six people behind him then limped in.
"Ling'er, treat Liu Xin and Hai Lu's injuries."
"Ma Teng, go check each room and make sure there are no zombies!"
At Meng Xinghun's command, the chubby man nodded.
"Okay! Captain!"
He pulled down the gate, sighed softly, and stared at the messy shelves with a deep expression.
Just then, a child's scream suddenly came from upstairs!
"Ahhh! Don't come any closer! Don't come any closer!!"
At the same time, a wailing roar also rang out!
Meng Xinghun suddenly stood up, gripped the two hammers in his hands, and strode upstairs.
As soon as he turned the corner, the tall figure of team member Ma Teng came into view.
That chubby, slightly comical face was now filled with reluctance.
"Don't come any closer! This is my last food! I need to wait for Dad to wake up so I can feed him."
A young girl's voice came from the room.
Meng Xinghun sighed softly, a faint sadness in his eyes.
The situation in the room was already in his imagination.
He slowly walked to the door, his clear black and white eyes looking into the room.
Despite being mentally prepared, the scene in the room still made this grown man's face freeze.
The tiny bedroom reeked of a terrible stench!
There was a woman sitting in the computer chair.
His skin was ashen and stained with blood. He was tightly bound to the chair by a rope as thick as a thumb.
Her blood-red eyes indicated that she was no longer human.
A wad of towel was stuffed in its mouth, and it occasionally let out whimpering roars.
On the ground to the side, lay a man of medium build.
His eyes were slightly closed, and he looked pale and thin.
At the doorway, a little girl who looked only seven or eight years old was glaring angrily at the two of them.
Despite the stench emanating from the entire room, the little girl remained clean and tidy.
A sharp fruit knife was clutched in her tiny palm.
But the fear in his heart made him tremble slightly uncontrollably.
A corner of a box of instant noodles was peeking out from the foot of the bed behind him.
"You bunch of bad people! Don't come any closer! Don't hurt my mother! You've stolen everything from our house!"
"Get out of here! Wait until my dad wakes up! He won't let you get away with this!"
Hearing the little girl's scolding, Meng Xinghun glanced helplessly at the man on the ground.
His experience with post-apocalyptic survival told him that the man had starved to death. He had been dead for no more than three hours.
The little girl's father can no longer stand up to protect her.
Meng Xinghun gave a bitter smile.
"Little guy, put down the knife! We won't take your things."
"We are good people."
The little girl remained unmoved by these words.
A layer of mist filled her bright, lively eyes.
"You are the bad guys, you are the ones who wanted to kill my mother!"
"Before Dad fell asleep, he told me not to let anyone dressed in black see Mom!"
Upon hearing this, Meng Xinghun instantly understood the whole story.
The black battle suit is clothing exclusive to evolved beings.
It's clear that a group of evolved beings once came here and discovered the woman who had turned into a zombie.
The man hid here to avoid the evolved beings.
Clearly, the one who took all the supplies was none other than an evolved being like himself.
At this moment, Meng Xinghun did not wonder why the evolved team had not killed the female zombie.
They were angry that the evolved beings took away the remaining resources.
Meng Xinghun let out a long sigh, looked at the man on the ground who was no longer breathing, and then glanced at the instant noodles next to him.
"A father's love is like a mountain; even in extreme hunger, he can suppress his own craving for food and give his last hope to his child. He is a man worthy of respect!"
Meng Xinghun slowly extended his large hand.
"Don't be nervous, little girl, we're really not bad people."
"Look, your dad is resting. He's too tired. Are we disturbing his rest by making noise here?"
"Come on, let your dad rest for a bit. Uncle will take you downstairs to get something delicious to eat."
These words clearly touched the little girl's heart, and she looked at the man on the ground with pity.
He spoke timidly.
"Alright! Let Dad rest. You all go down! Don't come near my mom!"
The little girl raised a gleaming fruit knife and swung it at Meng Xinghun and his companion.
Meng Xinghun nodded and gestured for Ma Teng to step back.
Soon, the three of them arrived on the first floor.
Seeing the little girl holding a fruit knife, the team members' expressions hardened, their hearts filled with helplessness.
One of the female team members quickly stood up.
"Little sister, put down the knife, don't hurt yourself. We are good people."
Perhaps it was seeing the female team member, or perhaps it was because she felt that her parents were now safe, that the little girl slowly put down the fruit knife in her hand.
