I Can See the Hidden Hints In The Apocalyptic World. - Chapter 22

Chapter 22 Conflict (1)

The next morning.

Outside, the sky was just beginning to lighten. Daylight filtered through the thin clouds and spread across the land, reflecting a silvery halo. Outside the window, the early birds were chirping.

After a night of rest, Chu Heng felt that the fatigue in his body had been swept away. He was full of energy and relaxed.

When he finished washing up and walked out, the two women strolled out of the room, yawning.

“Morning!”

“Morning, Brother Heng!”

Chu Heng nodded and said good morning.

“By the way, hurry up and wash up. I have something to tell you.”

“Yes? What is it?”

Meng Yue’er seemed to be still asleep. She tilted her head and looked at Chu Heng in confusion.

An Ya looked at Chu Heng thoughtfully, then pulled Meng Yue into the bathroom.

Thinking that they had to fight zombies in close combat today, the two women lost the mood to dress up. After a while, they walked out with bare faces.

It had to be said that the two girls had very good foundations. On top of the good shape of their faces, their skin was also very smooth. Even if they were bare-faced, they looked much better than most girls after putting on makeup.

An Ya came over and sat down on the sofa beside Chu Heng. She asked, “What do you have in mind?”

“I’m going to clear the zombies off the street at the entrance to the compound today. What about you guys?”

An Ya and Meng Yue were stunned.

“We must be going with you, Brother Heng. Otherwise…”

Chu Heng reached out and interrupted Meng Yue’er.

“Let me finish first.”

“I promised to protect you before. Logically speaking, I should have brought you along to keep you safe.”

Glancing at the two of them, Chu Heng continued.

“But it’s very dangerous this time. There are at least seven to eight hundred zombies on the streets. If you follow me, I might not be able to guarantee your safety.”

“Are you crazy? There are seven to eight hundred zombies. Even if they stand still and let you kill them, it will take at least an hour or two…”

An Ya was immediately shocked. A moment later, the shock on her face faded and she regained her usual composure. She thought about it.

“You don’t seem like a boor. I take it you have a plan of your own?”

Chu Heng nodded and slowly spat out a word. “Gasoline.”

…

An Ya and Meng Yue eventually followed. The three of them went down to the underground parking lot from the elevator and then walked out from the east entrance of the

underground parking lot.

After taking a few steps forward, the gate of the Tianshui Compound appeared in front of

them.

However, when Chu Heng saw the situation in front of the door, his expression suddenly

changed.

Outside the thick retractable door that was

more than a meter tall, it was filled with zombies who wanted to rush in. Human heads

surged and it was a dark mass. The roars of the zombies could be heard clearly by Chu

Heng. At this moment, there were six people standing in the compound, relying on the defense of the retractable door to kill the

zombies outside.

Chu Heng’s expression instantly turned cold as he looked at their backs with killing intent flashing across his eyes.

He was the one who had asked Zhang Ming to close the retractable gate in the compound. He was also the one who had cleaned up the zombies inside the compound and in the underground parking lot. Now that someone had done nothing and wanted to claim the benefits, it was naturally impossible for him

to agree.

“We-‘

An Ya was about to ask Chu Heng what to do

when she realized that Chu Heng had already rushed over.

“Don’t come over yet. I’m afraid there are long-range weapons on the other side…” In front of the retractable door, this group was Scarface and a few of his men. Originally, Scarface had planned to wait for Chu Heng in the residential building as Xiaodao had suggested. However, after waiting for a long time, he did not see Chu

Heng walk out of the underground parking

lot. Hence, his subordinates all agreed that Chu Heng might have been killed in the

underground parking lot and instigated Scarface to pick up the spoils.

Only Xiaodao was relatively calm. He analyzed

that Chu Heng had already lured and killed most of the zombies in the underground parking lot. With his ability, it was basically

impossible for him to get killed by accident in the underground parking lot. The elevator in their building had been stopped on their floor without moving, so he

boldly guessed that Chu Heng had gone to another residential building. At this time, the underground parking lot should be safe, so he did not make any objections.

When they arrived at the underground parking lot, they realized that all the zombies had been slaughtered, and the fuel tanks of all the cars had been drained. Therefore, under Xiaodao’s suggestion, they came to the gate and used the retractable door to kill the zombies outside.

“I have to say, Xiaodao, you’ve got a good head on your shoulders… and if it wasn’t for your warning, none of us would probably

have thought to come here and ‘take advantage’.

Scarface raised the fire axe in his hand and

slashed at the zombie outside the retractable

door with a relaxed expression. At the same time, he turned around and praised Xiaodao, who was killing the zombies. “That’s right, that’s right… College students

are really smart. With the retractable door blocking them, these zombies are like lambs waiting to be slaughtered. It doesn’t take much effort.”

After Scarface’s words, the other hooligans

also praised Xiaodao’s wit. Only the blond,

who had always been at odds with Xiaodao, had a gloomy expression. He killed the zombies in front of him without saying a word. Occasionally, he would look at Xiaodao with hatred and jealousy.

Hearing the crowd’s praise, Xiaodao just

smiled and said nothing. But under the smile, no one could tell what he was thinking. “Brothers, work harder. I already have a seed. I’ll strive to accumulate enough Crystal Cores today. When I awaken, I’ll bring you guys to

live a good life. At that time, we can play with women as we please. We might even be able to be kings…” Scarface spoke happily.

He was very lucky. When he was searching for supplies yesterday, he discovered a Silver Treasure Chest and obtained a seed. He also obtained a Low-level Build Potion, which greatly increased his attributes. Coupled with his gains this morning, he was actually able

to awaken.

However, he was no longer satisfied with the lowest-level plan. Instead, he wanted to raise his attributes to a higher level before awakening.

As for the man who cleaned up the zombies in

the compound, he was originally still a little worried. However, as his attributes rapidly

increased and he felt powerful, he no longer took Chu Heng seriously. Besides… he had also obtained a killing weapon from the Silver Treasure Chest. Now,

he did not have to be afraid of the longbow in Chu Heng’s hand.

At this moment, one of the hooligans inadvertently turned around and saw Chu

Heng rushing over. He hurriedly reminded Scarface loudly. “Boss, someone is charging over…” Everyone immediately turned around. Xiaodao

recognized Chu Heng at a glance and his expression changed slightly.

“Second Brother, be careful. It’s that person from yesterday…” Hearing Xiaodao’s judgment, the scar-faced

man’s expression froze. Then, he waved his hand indifferently and smiled arrogantly. “So be it. It just saves me the trouble of looking for him. If it were yesterday, I might be a little afraid of him, but now… hehe…”
