They were currently in a mountainous area, where there weren't many zombie tracks yet. However, after turning a few corners, near the foot of the mountain, they noticed a much stronger smell of blood.

Some zombies even pounced on their car, which shows that the villagers must have put up a fight, which is why the zombies had broken off arms and legs.

However, the zombie's mouth was full of blood, so it had probably already had a good meal.

Lu Yize glanced at the zombies' reactions and saw that she was responding to them as well, seemingly wanting to join them in feeding and attacking.

Lu Yize was very dissatisfied with this, his eyes filled with gloom.

It would be better if they could rely on each other like in their past life.

Instead of what she sees now, where she only sees him as food, and even in her eyes, the zombies outside with missing limbs are her kind.

Lu Yize stepped on the gas, ramming the zombies aside. The wheels ran over the brain of one of the zombies, splattering brain matter onto the windshield. He turned on the windshield wipers and calmly watched as the debris was cleaned up.

Presumably sensing the oppressive aura emanating from Lu Yize, Jiang Yue kept letting out low growls.

However, they became much more obedient in their actions, no longer thinking about jumping out of the window and becoming a member of the zombie army.

Their car was very conspicuous on the road, naturally attracting the attention of many survivors.

They clung to the last straw, desperately squeezing to the front of the vehicle. One man even pushed aside all the elderly, weak, sick, and disabled to get to the front.

Upon seeing the car stop and that there was only a young man inside, his face instantly contorted with greed, and he wanted to take the car for himself.

"Young man, please give me a ride. Please do me a favor. I won't cause you any trouble. I have some food here that I can trade with you. My wife and children are waiting for me to go back."

Seeing that the young man in the car was about to be deceived, a grandmother holding a child shouted angrily, "Young man, don't believe him! He's a beast! He used his wife and daughter to shield them from zombies, and they died!"

The man's face contorted with rage the moment his true colors were revealed. If he couldn't get on the bus, he would definitely not let the old woman go.

Unexpectedly, before Lu Yize could make a move, the zombie sitting in the passenger seat next to him broke free of its handcuffs and charged straight at the man.

A pair of hands plunged straight into his heart. The man's face showed terror. Because they were so close, even though Jiang Yue was wearing a helmet, he could vaguely see her face: completely black eyes and protruding fangs...

He looked down at the hands that had pierced his heart, and the bluish-black skin exposed beneath them, and murmured, "Sigh...sigh..."

Before he could finish speaking, the zombie in front of him showed no mercy, ripped out his heart, and instantly killed him. If he hadn't been wearing a helmet, the zombie probably would have already attacked and torn him apart.

This sudden turn of events terrified the elderly woman standing nearby. She quickly covered the child's eyes, her eyes filled with fear.

Lu Yize, however, acted as if nothing had happened. He took Jiang Yue's hand, pulled her to his side, took out water from his spatial storage, and helped her wash her hands. He even said, "Well done."

He didn't even glance at the corpse on the ground.

Just now, he noticed that this man was staring lewdly at Jiang Yue's curvaceous body. It was crystal clear what he was thinking. Lu Yize looked at him like he was a dead man.

He loosened Jiang Yue's shackles, wondering what the little zombie would choose: would it run away immediately, pounce on him and eat the nourishing food, or... kill that filthy beast?

Lu Yize was satisfied when he saw the little zombie rip out her heart without hesitation and not resist when he held her hand to wash it.

When those people saw Jiang Yue's actions, they were immediately terrified and scattered in all directions.

Only the grandmother and grandson were left trembling on the side. The child didn't even dare to cry out loud. Anyone who didn't know better would think they were facing some kind of bully.

Lu Yize doesn't consider himself a good person, but he's not a bad one either. He won't go out of his way to pick a fight with someone for no reason.

After cleaning the blood off Jiang Yue's hands, he opened the backpack on the middle-aged man's body, made sure it was full of food, and then casually tossed it to the grandfather and grandson.

They probably hadn't expected this change either, and their expressions turned from shock to a vaguely uneasy elation. "Thank you, thank you..."

"Don't let anyone see you. If you want to live, you can head into the city," Lu Yize reminded him.

But that was all; he didn't have the kindness to bring these strangers into the city.

The government has now opened up a small safe zone in the city to protect the residents.

If they remain in these deep mountains and forests, they will only be waiting to die. Although entering the city is more difficult, if they are lucky enough to join the base, they might at least be able to survive.

Lu Yize also killed several zombies that were constantly approaching them and dug out the zombie crystal cores from their brains.

The zombie crystal core must have been extremely attractive to the zombies, because even Jiang Yue, who was currently in a daze, was staring intently at it.

If Lu Yize hadn't used his supernatural abilities to suppress her, she probably would have already tried to snatch it.

It wasn't that Lu Yize was reluctant to part with the zombie crystal cores, but rather that he had just dug them out of the zombies' brains, and the crystal cores were still covered in brain matter. He couldn't bring himself to give such a thing to Jiang Yue.

Lu Yize used the water in his space to awaken the zombie's crystal core. The process wasn't long, but the zombies around him were getting impatient.

Just before she was about to make her move, Lu Yize opened Jiang Yue's helmet and stuffed the repeatedly cleaned zombie crystal core into her mouth.

Jiang Yue was instantly calmed down and quietly chewed on the zombie crystal core.

Watching her bite a crystal core, as hard as a diamond, into powder, Lu Yize reached out and touched her teeth.

For some reason, he smiled knowingly and said, "Your teeth are still pretty good. I'll have to be careful in the future, lest you accidentally chew them."

The zombie didn't understand what he was saying. Normally, Jiang Yue would have already bitten him, but now, she didn't care that someone was touching her teeth. She was immersed in the joy of eating the crystal cores.

Seeing that she had stopped struggling, Lu Yize put away the other two crystal cores, and Jiang Yue no longer needed him to use force to suppress her as before, so she naturally followed him into the car.

The zombie crystal core actually has this function? Lu Yize felt that he could kill more zombies along the way.

The grandmother who had spoken up to warn Lu Yize and his group, after seeing how easily they killed three zombies, pondered for a moment. She remembered Lu Yize's earlier warning and then looked at the people behind her.

She picked up her grandson, the only living member of their family. Her son and daughter-in-law had died protecting them, and they might turn into zombies at any moment.

Grandma glanced at her grandson in her arms, gritted her teeth, and made a decision, "Little Bao, be good, Grandma will take you to the city."
