Feeling the murderous intent in the darkness, the girl hurriedly spoke, "No, no, no, I'm sorry, you've misunderstood. We came to rescue you... We just heard gunshots and thought someone was in danger. We came over and thought you were..."

The short blade was his last remaining weapon, which he planned to keep for when he entered the city center.

But now.

Black glanced at the team of six people and then said coldly, "You, also take a hit from me."

The person with black eyes stared at the man who had just fired the gun.

"What... What?" The people in the team were clearly surprised after hearing his words.

What is this person like? Have they all apologized?

"Hey, kid, we're here to save you. If you don't appreciate it, fine, but don't act so arrogant!" The person who fired the gunshot became infuriated by his words.

Hei had no intention of wasting words with them. His eyes flickered slightly, and in an instant, he moved towards them. His positioning was extremely extreme, and in the time it took for everyone to gasp, he had already arrived in front of them.

The lone girl in the group immediately stepped forward, raising her hands to block the person about to shoot. "Please, I beg you, don't do it!"

As soon as the words fell, the black dagger was already pressed against the man's neck. The icy touch instantly made goosebumps rise all over his body...

Too...too fast!

Black glanced at the little girl, who was so scared that tears were already streaming down her face. He pursed his lips and said, "Make sure to aim carefully when shooting in the future."

Black walked away, leaving the others behind. However, the young girl chased after him and said, "Um, excuse me. Can I ask what your name is? It's too dangerous for you to be alone. Why not join us? There are many zombies around here."

"Hey, Shirley, don't go." No matter how you look at it, this person seems really dangerous, right?

The woman named Sherry, however, did not listen. She took two steps forward and tried to grab Black.

Black moved aside slightly, avoiding her fingertips, then turned his head to look at the little girl named Shirley, saying, "Stay away from me."

Shirley opened her mouth, her face full of shock.

This person is so strange... He actually refused the team's help? Is he really okay with facing death alone?

And he still wants to go to the city center?

But he seems to be very skilled. Could he be looking for someone, or perhaps... a mercenary?

"Are you a mercenary?"

"……"

"So, if you join us, how much reward will we give you?"

"I'm going to the city center."

"Uh, I'm very familiar with the city center."

"Sold."

So, under Shirley's relentless insistence, Hei temporarily became a mercenary in the protection team.

However, Black was not interested in the conversation of the others, except for playing with his ring.

Actually, this team was mostly organized by Shirley.

On the way, Sherry tries her best to persuade anyone she sees alone to join her. Everyone feels that it is truly wonderful to encounter such a kind-hearted girl in these days filled with despair.

Several people were also pulled in, and they had no grounds to object. Furthermore, Shirley informed everyone that the search intensity in the city center should be relatively low due to the abundance of zombies, so there might be a considerable amount of supplies left behind.

If they were lucky, they might even find a working vehicle. The supplies caught everyone's attention, and in the end, everyone agreed to move towards the city center.

However, soon they encountered another person who was separated from the group.

Moreover, the group of people found his expression extremely peculiar. That person's appearance was also very peculiar, his face flushed, with sweat constantly pouring out of his body. Even the breath he exhaled was scorching hot.

It looks like... drugged?

The expressions of the people around me were somewhat complex, especially the tall person in the group. Surprisingly, even the tall person began to sweat, and they turned their head to distance themselves from the group.

"Omega? Damn it, they actually posted on QQ in a place like this."

"How can we handle this when the suppressant medicine is so expensive that no one can afford it now?"

It turns out Qisheng is an alpha? I didn't even notice... Not good, this scent...

Several other people in the queue also seemed to have a faint blush on their faces.

Hei was very puzzled by this phenomenon. It was truly amazing that these people could still use QQ chat in a situation where zombies could pop out at any moment.
