Rebirth in the Apocalypse: My Ex-Girlfriend's Guide to Winning Me Over

There were two people standing on the left and three people standing on the right; they were clearly not from the same group.

It's not surprising that the commotion from setting the fire attracted people.

The five people were wrapped up like robbers, and you couldn't see anything.

"Are you...are you soldiers?" asked a man on the left, who was wearing a floral headscarf, in a deep, rough voice.

This group of people are dressed so uniformly, and they even have gas masks.

Moreover, he couldn't think of any other possibility besides the state apparatus that wiped out so many zombies at once.

"No, it's just an individual doing a good deed." Zuo You's voice came from behind the mask, sounding muffled.

The five people gasped; judging from the voice, it was a woman.

The leader of the trio glanced at his own group, then at Zuo You's group and the zombies on the ground, and then at Gouzi, his eyes gleaming with greed.

These are all treasures! Crystal cores, crystal cores everywhere.

There's meat too! We haven't had any meat for half a month. Look at this dog, so plump and strong, it must taste delicious!

He grumbled, "You wiped out all the zombies, where are we going to find crystal cores? You have to compensate us."

Zuo You glanced at the sky; the red moon was out, it was time to go home for dinner. "Anyone who wants compensation, step forward together."

The two men tried to help the other man, but Qin Rui pulled them back.

He cursed Tian Ye inwardly, thinking, "After being a police officer for so many years, can't you see that he's using entrapment?"

Zuo You looked at the two impatiently and asked, "Do you want compensation or not?"

"No, we just came to see what happened here."

Qin Rui pulled Tian Ye back, his intuition telling him they were in deep trouble and he didn't know if they could escape unscathed.

Zuo You glanced at Qin Rui curiously; the voice sounded familiar, but she couldn't remember where she had heard it before.

"Do the three of you want to compensate me?" Zuo You's tone was extremely harsh, and a chill emanated from her.

The leader of the trio saw the other group retreat and muttered under his breath: "Cowards."

He thought about it for a moment, but in the end he couldn't resist his cravings; he was too hungry.

“We definitely need to compensate them. They don’t want us, and they don’t want much. We want three-tenths of the crystal cores, but you have to give me your dog.”

"I...I don't want to," the woman among the three said weakly.

After saying that, he even took a step back.

"Damn it, I'll beat you up when I get back." The leader glared at the woman and cursed angrily, but he didn't make a move.

There are still a group of people on the other side whose problems need to be solved; it's not the right time to cause further trouble.

Erdan got angry when he heard this and bared his teeth and growled at the three of them.

Do you think you can even dream of being with me? What are you trying to do?

Want to eat dog meat? I'll kill you all.

It glanced at its master, saw her nod, then pounced forward, slapping its claws in mid-air, sending four pale golden claw beams straight towards the leader of the three.

The leader dodged the claw strike with lightning speed, and Erdan fired two more laser beams, which were also dodged.

Zuo You was not surprised at all. In this kind of weather, anyone who dared to go out was either extremely hungry or an awakened being.

She stood aside, watching the fight between the man and the dog like a spectator. Erdan was no ordinary second-tier mutated beast; speed was one of her specialties. Even this couldn't hit the speed awakener, which showed how powerful the enhanced individuals were in the early days of the apocalypse.

"Hey, I'm unbeatable in speed, come on then!" the leader scoffed.

He was already cursing inwardly, "What the hell? How does this dog have eyes that can see through anything?"

However, he wasn't afraid. All three of them were Awakened Ones: one focused on speed, one on defense, and one on water.

Even if we can't win, we can definitely run away.

Let's not even talk about that water system; it's a useless piece of trash who dares to contradict him.

Thinking of this, his eyes involuntarily turned sinister.

Just as the leader was quickly dodging Erdan's attack, his feet were suddenly frozen by ice. Then, a ball of light slammed into him with lightning speed. Before he could dodge, his head was blown apart, and thick red and white matter was spilled all over the ground.

Alarm bells rang in Qin Rui's mind. He pulled his teammate back while asking, "Tian Ye, are you faster, or was that guy faster?"

Tian Ye said solemnly, "That person is Liu Dahua. I recognized his voice. He is not as fast as me. He has not yet advanced to the next level, while I am already at the second level."

Qin Rui nodded. The two of them had already discovered the function of the crystal core and were already second-tier awakeners, so leaving shouldn't be difficult.

"I'll hold them off in a bit, you just need to run for your life."

Tianye was extremely tense. "If we go together, even if they are all second-tier, we will still have a chance to escape."

He felt a chill run down his spine. He had encountered several elemental awakeners before, and they were all very weak. How could this dog look so strong?

At that time, Gouzi had finished dealing with another man, a defensive type. If Erdan hadn't been baptized by the strange light, he wouldn't have been able to break through his defenses.

The woman beside her retreated repeatedly, not daring to make a sound, and kept her head down, trying to convince herself: You can't see me, you can't see me.

Zuo You ignored the woman, looked at Qin Rui and the other man, and said indifferently, "Take off your headscarves, let me see your faces."

She remembered who the voice belonged to, but she still needed to confirm.

Qin Rui: "???"

field:"???"

What does that mean? Does it mean you decide whether to take action based on looks?

Zuo You urged, "Hurry up, can't you see I'm busy?"

Qin Rui hesitated for two seconds before pulling off his striped headscarf, and Tian Ye followed suit by pulling off his floral headscarf.

Zuo You glanced at the two of them, a glint of light flashing in her eyes. It was indeed Qin Rui, a defensive ability user.

Her second captain, and the only person she felt she could rely on in the apocalypse.

Because Qin Rui died to save her, if she doesn't find him reliable, then no one is reliable.

To be precise, it wasn't about saving her, but about saving the entire team.

In her previous life, Zuo You had been a member of Qin Rui's scavenging team for the longest time, for three years.

Once, while searching for supplies outside the base, he encountered a level 7 zombie and chose to stay behind it.

Then he was killed, and the other four team members also met their demise.

Only Zuo You, who could run faster than a car, survived.

However, to be fair, Zuo You only realized how reliable Qin Rui was after his death.

When asked if she thought Qin Rui was reliable, Zuo You thought for a moment and decided to leave it at that.

Human nature is too complex; perhaps if a similar situation were to occur again, people would not make the same choice.

She didn't recognize the people around Qin Rui; they were probably already dead.

After thinking for a moment, she said, "If you have nowhere to go, you can come with me."

Sun Feiyu has a keen ear and heard everything clearly.

Looking at Qin Rui and the other person with surprise, they thought, "They're not that handsome, so why did they catch the boss's eye?"

Qin Rui and Tian Ye were also shocked.

How can you recruit someone just by looking at their face?

The two men exchanged a glance. Had he hooked up with a rich woman? They wondered which of the two men the woman had taken a fancy to.
