Apocalypse: the Most Ruthless Person

Chapter 374 - 323: Time to Prove Yourself

"Uh, uh... gulp, gulp..."

With a difficult twitch, Liu Shijie fell to the ground, his dead body lying there. Compared to the fat guy, he suffered much less, a sort of relief.

Splurt!

Standing by, Lu Yubo struck again with the knife, in perfect cooperation.

As Liu Shijie fell, the remaining three shook like leaves, their lips trembling as they looked at the group in front of them, not knowing what to say...

Plead for mercy?

Seems completely useless.

Curse them?

Probably a quicker death, maybe that’s not a bad choice either?

Zhang Su briefly interacted with the few of them, realizing none of them were good birds. Their leader was cautious and ruthless, and his men bullied the weak and feared the strong without any morals. These traits suited survival in the apocalypse, but as enemies, they were annoying, leaving them alive would only be a menace!

Even he, who never liked leaving no survivors, decided not to spare them, but before that, he needed to extract some information.

"Big brother, please, can’t you let us have a way out, please give us a path!"

Xiaobo suddenly shouted, knocking his head on the ground, looking on the verge of collapse.

"Where in the Mountain and Sea District are you? How many people do you have, and what are your weapon allocations like?"

Zhang Su didn’t grant their request, but asked indifferently, not at all looking like someone who just killed.

"I’ll tell you, our camp is in Sha, Sha..."

"If you can’t say it properly, shut up! Shahe Town, Shangye Village. Big brother, our village has a total of 54 people, 18 of them are adult males with combat capabilities. Most hot weapons were traded with the Cyan Dragon Corps. Besides what we brought, there are four guns left at the camp, plus a few unreliable homemade guns. Big brother, spare us!"

Xiaobo saw a companion stumbling over their words and hurriedly took over, fluently reporting their situation.

Zhang Su clicked his tongue, bent down and wiped the Dog Leg Military Saber on Liu Shijie’s dead body, then sheathed it with a swipe.

This scene nearly made the three burst with relief; the knife was sheathed, they were saved, yay!

However, just as they thought they had a chance, the other party spoke.

"These three guys attacked you before, right?" Zhang Su waved at Qi Xiaoshuai, "You decide whether they live or die."

As Zhang Su’s words fell, the three kneeling people immediately turned and kowtowed to Qi Xiaoshuai, continuously begging for mercy. Besides this, they couldn’t think of any other method, regretting not being daughters so they could offer themselves.

Qi Xiaoshuai coldly watched the three, hesitating briefly, instinctively reaching for a gun, only to remember it had been confiscated and thrown in the car.

"Younger Brother Qi, catch!"

Zhao Dezhu naturally saw Qi Xiaoshuai’s intention and tossed over a rifle.

"Screw you all, run!"

Seeing this, the three kneeling people couldn’t stay calm, their desire to live ignited unprecedented strength. They jumped up from their kneeling position, turned, and started running!

Since forgiveness was not in the cards, better to fight for a chance, a chance to live.

Bang, bang, bang, bang.

How fast can a person run? Especially when the front is a wide-open playground...

Qi Xiaoshuai received the gun and immediately started firing, quickly taking down two. Just as he was about to aim at the last one, someone pressed his shoulder.

Turning his head, he saw Zhang Su, assuming he was stopping him from killing everyone, relaxed and said, "Spare that dog’s life!"

Zhang Su smiled without speaking and said to Lu Yubo, "Bozai, go bring him back!"

"Alright!" Lu Yubo agreed and chased forward, much faster than the guy who couldn’t swing his arms.

Zhang Su took the gun from Qi Xiaoshuai and said with a strange expression, "Guess why I told you to spare his life?"

Qi Xiaoshuai thought blankly and said, "Uh... should be to ask some more questions, right?"

"No."

Zhang Su shook his head, turned to the crowd, looking directly past everyone, landing his eyes on Su Xiaoya.

The inconspicuous little spy, Su Xiaoya, was dumbfounded watching Lu Yubo escort back the last person. She suddenly realized everyone in front was staring at her, feeling puzzled.

However, everyone from Celestial Horse Island knew what Su Xiaoya was facing, many sighed with strange expressions, thinking: integration and growth, this is a necessary process and trial.

Zhao Dezhu made an exaggerated expression to Zheng Xinyu, as if saying, "The big brother is really ruthless..."

Zheng Xinyu responded to Zhao Dezhu with a ’what else would you expect’ look, spreading her hands helplessly. The first day the disaster broke out, Zhang Su forced her to kill zombies, a scene she’ll never forget. Yet, because of that experience, her growth surpassed others by a notch.

Su Xiaoya completely didn’t understand what was happening, standing dumbly in place looking at Zhang Su slowly walking towards her, feeling very uneasy inside.

"Here." Zhang Su handed the rifle to Su Xiaoya as he approached her.

"What, what for?"

Su Xiaoya didn’t immediately take the rifle, gently waving her hand and taking a step back, accidentally kicking the bag of recovered equipment, making a clattering sound.

"Take it, I’ll teach you how to shoot, kill him!"

Zhang Su affirmed.

"Demons, you’re devils, you stinky sharks will go to hell, into the oil..."

Bang, bang, bang!

"Uh..."

"So damn annoying!"

The man brought back by Lu Yubo kept cursing, his face twisted and spittle flying. But before he could continue, Lu Yubo elbowed him several times, knocking him out, dragging him back into the crowd.

"No, no, no, I really can’t, I don’t know how to use a gun."

Su Xiaoya finally realized why everyone was looking at her so weirdly, it turned out she was about to face such a grim trial. She looked at the unconscious man, then at the rifle in front of her, repeatedly waving her hands.

"Gun’s not your thing? No problem." Zhang Su swiftly drew out a military saber and handed it to Su Xiaoya, "Then use this!"

Su Xiaoya rolled her eyes and almost passed out, the bloody scene still vivid in her mind. With a bitter face, she accepted the rifle from Zhang Su and reluctantly said, "I...I think this is better. Do I really have to kill him?"

"Absolutely! Here, I’ll show you how..."

With that, Zhang Su removed the magazine and explained to Su Xiaoya the basics of shooting.

"It’s time to prove yourself, go on."

After the simple lesson, Zhang Su handed Su Xiaoya the magazine and gave her shoulder a heavy pat, causing her to stagger.

Su Xiaoya’s face, red from the cold, was full of gravity. Holding the rifle awkwardly, she looked around at everyone in front of her. Remembering Zhang Su mentioning the establishment of a Reserve Team, she steeled her heart and walked towards the unconscious man.
