Lan Hai and Chen Ziliang leaned against the car to rest, while the man next to the truck climbed up and introduced himself to Ye Xiao.

"Hello, my name is Bai Ling. You three were really lucky! How could you encounter such a monster in broad daylight?"

Bai Ling glanced at Ye Xiao and the other two with a hint of suspicion in her eyes.

"Those monsters usually don't roam around much during the day, and..."

Bai Ling's gaze swept over Lan Hai and Chen Ziliang's injuries, a hint of suspicion creeping into her eyes.

"Your injuries don't look like they were inflicted by that monster!"

Lan Hai and Chen Ziliang paused, exchanged a glance, and fell silent for a moment.

But this moment of silence was tantamount to acknowledging Bai Ling's guess.

Chen Ziliang sighed and shook his head, saying:

"This is a car accident!"

Bai Ling was stunned, clearly caught off guard. "A car accident?"

Ye Xiao nodded, "That's right. The three of us were driving slowly on the road when suddenly a truck came rushing by and overturned the car."

"Later, perhaps because of the loud noise, the monster fell down from the building and chased after us all the way."

Bai Ling's gaze fell on Lan Hai and Chen Ziliang. Their injuries did indeed resemble those caused by a car accident, so she didn't suspect anything further.

"correct!"

He suddenly turned to look at Ye Xiao, "Did you see an advertising van that kept playing radio broadcasts along the way?"

Lan Hai and Chen Ziliang were suddenly stunned and remained silent, while Ye Xiao spoke without batting an eye:

"I saw it. The truck that hit us also overturned the advertising van. Then, the truck driver and the people in the advertising van started fighting, and I don't know what happened after that!"

Lan Hai and Chen Ziliang stood to the side, dumbfounded as they listened to Ye Xiao's nonsense. They exchanged a glance, both seeing speechlessness and a hint of apprehension in each other's eyes.

"is it?"

Bai Ling gave Ye Xiao a meaningful look, then turned her gaze to Lan Hai and Chen Ziliang, and said:

"You two are seriously injured, so you should rest here!"

He had barely finished speaking when a sudden commotion erupted outside.

A soldier quickly approached the back of the truck and shouted to Bai Ling, "Squad leader, the surrounding residents are gathering!"

The appearance of the convoy naturally attracted the attention of the surrounding residents, and many people ran out as if they had seen saviors, running towards the convoy.

Bai Ling frowned, immediately flipped over and jumped down, and said sternly:

"Let's go, hurry up!"

Immediately afterwards, the people quickly lined up, got into the car, and started the engine.

"Is this a rescue operation? Are you here to rescue us?"

The car had barely started moving when several people rushed to its side, banging on the vehicle and shouting:

"Is it a rescue? Yes..."

However, the only response they received was the roar of an engine, and the car sped off with a single press of the accelerator.

"Hey, where are you guys going? Wait! Wait!"

Ye Xiao craned his neck to look at the crowd chasing the car on the road, shook his head, looked away, and turned back to the car.

Several soldiers in the back of the truck smiled awkwardly when they saw Ye Xiao looking at them:

"There's nothing we can do about it; we can't even take care of ourselves right now."

Ye Xiao frowned and asked, "Where is the army?"

A soldier sighed and shook his head. "At first, we gathered to deal with the mutated creatures in the nearby mountains and forests, but soon a large number of our comrades began to show strange symptoms and gradually mutated."

"In just one night, the troops suffered heavy casualties and were completely routed!"

Chen Ziliang couldn't help but feel strange, "So you're planning to go to other military regions to join forces?"

The soldiers exchanged grim glances, shaking their heads. "Everywhere is in a state of chaos right now, too busy to even take care of themselves!"

"Furthermore, let me give you a piece of advice: don't stay with crowds, because you never know when someone might suddenly change."

The car continued forward, and Ye Xiao, sitting in the car, couldn't just jump out like that. Moreover, he strongly suspected that Bai Ling was the fifth raider.

Finally, the car arrived in front of a shopping mall, and there wasn't a soul in sight on the empty street.

Ye Xiao jumped off the vehicle with several soldiers, and Lan Hai and Chen Ziliang were also helped off the vehicle.

Bai Ling was leading a group of people to get ready by the car. Ye Xiao curiously went over and asked:

"Um, Captain Bai, what are you guys planning to do?"

Bai Ling smiled and said, "Oh, we haven't eaten for a while, so we're planning to get some supplies! You guys come in with us! I see you haven't brought any supplies!"

Speaking of food, Ye Xiao's stomach rumbled. He hadn't eaten anything since he came out last night, so he definitely needed to get something to eat.

only……

Ye Xiao hesitated slightly. He could get supplies on his own, but Bai Ling was likely the fifth raider. Currently, he not only had helpers, but the restrictions on his superpowers had also been lifted.

If I were to follow them, my movements would definitely be restricted.

At this moment, Lan Hai and Chen Ziliang were helped down by several soldiers and sat on the steps not far away. The two looked at Ye Xiao's hesitant eyes, exchanged glances, and their expressions became extremely solemn.

"This Ye Xiao... we've probably underestimated him!"

Chen Ziliang's words caused Lan Hai to fall silent as well. After a moment, he nodded.

"That kid is too shrewd. He had a premonition that there would be a car accident, but he jumped out of the car first. He wasn't hurt at all, but the two of us were seriously injured!"

Lan Hai gritted his teeth, "That's it, given our current situation, what's the point of arguing anymore!"

Chen Ziliang's gaze fell silently on Ye Xiao, and he whispered, "I'm afraid this guy has already planned this out!"

“He risked everything to kill that guy, and now there’s one less competitor. We’re both seriously injured, so it’ll be easy for him to strike. In the end, he’ll reap the benefits.”

"What a treacherous fellow!"

Lan Hai shook his head. What's the point of saying all this now? With his injuries, he's bound to be eliminated.

Suddenly, his brow furrowed, and he lowered his voice, saying, "That Bai Ling, I specifically inquired about the broadcast earlier. Do you think he might also be a raider?"

Chen Ziliang glanced at Bai Ling beside Ye Xiao and nodded silently, "Very likely. This guy has helpers with him, making him even more difficult to deal with."

Lan Hai frowned. "Should we find a chance to slip away?"

Chen Ziliang shook his head. "No, we have to stay!"

Lan Hai frowned, clearly somewhat reluctant. "What do you mean?"

Chen Ziliang looked at Lan Hai and said, "If we leave alone, Ye Xiao will definitely not let us go easily. If we stay here, Bai Ling will not easily attack us because of so many people around."

Chen Ziliang paused, then said, "Besides, we are no longer in danger to him, so why don't we..."

Lan Hai was taken aback, but immediately understood Chen Ziliang's meaning. He looked up at Ye Xiao and sneered.

"If they've schemed against us, then let's scheme against them back!"
