Chapter 101: ready to leave

Director Zhang opened his mouth, just about to speak, but seeing the actions of those police officers, he immediately closed it tightly.

He wasn't foolish; he had already argued with Captain Lü over Zhang Laoda's matter before. Although he held a higher position than them, it was now the apocalypse. The reason they mostly listened to him was because everyone still retained some of their pre-apocalyptic professional attributes.

It seemed now that they were determined to drive these four people out and let Li Yu and the others deal with them.

Having thought it through, Director Zhang simply ignored the pleading gazes of the four people and stopped speaking.

Under the urging of the police officers, these four people reluctantly dragged their feet, not wanting to leave. Captain Lü pulled out his pistol, pointed it at them, and said impolitely, "Get out!" In his opinion, Zhang Laoda's gang had caused Old Ma's death, and now they still expected him to save them? That was simply dreaming.

If Director Zhang hadn't stopped them, the police officers would have gone to find trouble with Zhang Laoda long ago!

Now that someone was actively taking out Zhang Laoda, they were happy about it.

Seeing Captain Lü draw his gun, despair flashed in the eyes of the four. They could only move inch by inch.

One foot had already stepped out the gate.

They looked back at the police officers, then at Li Yu's side, a trace of struggle in their eyes. They seemed to want to plead with Li Yu again.

However, Li Yu and the others didn't give them any chance to speak.

As soon as they stepped out the gate, Li Yu fired two shots, and Zhao Dapao also fired two shots.

Four gunshots rang out.

Immediately after, four bodies fell to the ground.

Li Yu's expression was serious, as if nothing had happened. Not breaking in to kill was because he didn't want to cause trouble; after all, they had over three hundred people on their side.

However, not wanting to cause trouble didn't mean being afraid of causing trouble. It was the apocalypse; absolute firepower represented absolute right to speak.

If they dared to try and protect these four people, Li Yu wouldn't mind killing his way in.

This was a real apocalypse, and this was Li Yu's true inner thought. Perhaps, in this apocalypse, many flashes of human brilliance would appear, but Li Yu was not a great man, nor was he some chosen one who would change humanity's destiny.

He was just an ordinary person, capable of malice, becoming more rampant due to the apocalypse, possessing inner evil; but also capable of kindness, not wishing to see tragic things.

However, if he was ever threatened, or if someone tried to stop him, and he had the strength, then he would unceremoniously eliminate some people.

These four people died right at the main entrance. Director Zhang's face was a bit unsightly. He had thought that Li Yu and the others would at least take these four away and then deal with them secretly.

But now, it was right at the main entrance. These four people had begged him to protect them, but not only did he fail to protect them, Li Yu and the others killed them directly at the entrance!

Director Zhang felt a loss of face, as if he had been slapped, a burning pain on his cheek.

However, Captain Lü and the other police officers beside him, seeing Li Yu decisively kill these four people, a hint of appreciation flashed in their eyes.

Decisive, capable, and hating evil like a personal enemy.

Captain Lü looked at Li Yu and the others with appreciation. Although their appearance seemed somewhat ruthless, looking at Zhao Dapao and the others, it was clear that they had been soldiers.

Thinking that their side currently had over three hundred people, but only a few of them knew how to use guns. There were many people, but not many truly combat-effective ones. So he said, "Friends, I was also a soldier before. We're all comrades. Look, the apocalypse has arrived, everyone should unite. Only then will our strength be great and we won't be broken by zombies. Would you be willing to join us?"

Indeed, in this group, the initial rule set was: anyone could join, regardless of age, gender, or where they came from. It was precisely because of this that while their team had many people, there were few with strong combat capabilities.

As soon as Captain Lü spoke, Director Zhang's eyes lit up. "Right! If we can attract them, wouldn't our strength be much greater?" But then he thought, what if these people tried to seize power? So he fell into deep thought.

Li Yu had been listening to Captain Lü's words. He didn't think much of it at first, but when he heard the end, he wanted to laugh a little. Join them? Join them to live a hard life?

Looking at some people slowly gathering due to the noise, these people, though looking better in spirit than those with Zhang Laoda, still appeared malnourished, with sallow faces and thin bodies.

After the apocalypse broke out, many farmlands and even many storage places for supplies were submerged. Without production, everyone went out to search, but the further they went, the fewer and harder to collect supplies became. This also led to them having to explore further and further.

Li Yu shook his head, directly refusing them.

In his previous life, Li Yu had also joined some groups, both large and small. It was fine when the apocalypse first broke out, as people's nature hadn't been extinguished too much. Later, even within groups, there were different ranks.

Those without strength could only be relegated to the lowest tier, and in special circumstances, even had to undertake the mission of luring away zombies. After joining several different factions, Li Yu finally decided to be a lone wolf.

Because although being alone in the apocalypse was much more dangerous, in those groups, one couldn't trust anyone and had to guard against everyone around them, which was more exhausting than being alone in the wild.

Captain Lü saw Li Yu shake his head and wasn't too surprised. After all, with the strength of Li Yu and the others, they certainly wouldn't be doing worse than them in this apocalypse.

Behind Captain Lü, there were still some ordinary citizens, looking at Li Yu and his group with fear in their eyes.

Li Yu didn't want to interact with them much, so he prepared to leave.

After a final glance at them, Li Yu walked towards the car.

Zhao Dapao looked at the four bodies on the ground, as if he had completed some great task. He relaxed, feeling a bit out of it, but a part of his consciousness made him follow Li Yu towards the car.

The others didn't speak. Seeing Li Yu's actions, they also followed him towards the car.

Director Zhang felt a bit regretful seeing Li Yu and his group prepare to leave, but more than that, he breathed a sigh of relief. After all, Li Yu's aura just now was too strong, and he didn't speak much, appearing very difficult to get along with.

He watched Li Yu and his group get into the car with some vigilance. A single Zhang Laoda had been eliminated by them; this group was truly terrifying.

Meanwhile, in Liberation City, not everyone was drawn to the main gate by the ringing. Some people, for various reasons, did not go to join the excitement.

At this moment, a middle-aged man was suffering from a high fever, in a state of coma. There was also a terrifying knife wound on his chest. It looked like it had been there for some time, and due to the lack of anti-inflammatory medicine, the wound was already festering and oozing pus.

Beside him, a woman was tending to him, holding a wet towel and placing it on the middle-aged man's head.
