I hacked through the chaotic world with my blade

A moment later.

Lin Fan said, "You all can try lifting that truck and see. This set of war armor is a product of human technology. Although its effects aren't as powerful as the second generation, it's still quite impressive with the enhancement of technology."

Listening to Lin Fan, everyone was curious.

Until a member wearing the war armor easily lifted the truck's front, provoking astonishment among them all, evidently surprised by its magic.

Member after member couldn't resist trying it out.

Huo Fen stayed by Lin Fan's side and said, "Thank you so much. With the help of this war armor, our safety has greatly improved. Even if we encounter zombies, we have nothing to fear."

"Yeah, there's no need to worry about regular zombies, but you need to be cautious of the Evolutionary Zombies. Take a look at the handbook I gave you, then you'll understand," Lin Fan said.

The biggest threat forcing humanity to the brink is indeed the Evolutionary Zombies.

"Sure, I'll read it carefully." Huo Fen felt much more relaxed, perceiving this as the luckiest day of his life due to encountering the miraculous Lin Fan.

A long time later.

The time for departure arrived.

The rebels, armed, expressed their gratitude to Lin Fan as they bid farewell, moving towards the distance, aiming to rescue more survivors and clear more zombies as they searched for the main troops.

They acknowledged that such actions were akin to a drop in the ocean in the apocalyptic world, barely creating a significant impact, but it was a necessity.

If you don't do it, and I don't do it, then nobody will.

Relying on a single individual is just not feasible.

Only when everyone unites and puts forth their efforts will progress be visible.

"We're leaving." Huo Fen approached Lin Fan, saluting as he was about to depart.

"Safe travels, hope you stay well."

"Absolutely, once the sunshine covers every corner, and the living can safely stand under it, that'll be when we meet again. By then, we won't stop drinking until we're drunk."

"Okay."

Lin Fan seldom drank, but he nodded firmly at this moment.

He had given the satellite phone to Huo Fen.

Contact him in case of danger.

He can arrive there within a very short period.

Soon enough.

Lin Fan watched as one armored vehicle after another left, disappearing from sight.

"Officer Huang, are you leaving too?"

"Yeah."

Officer Huang walked away in the latest war armor, heading in a direction opposite to Huo Fen and his group.

A group after group filled with confidence towards the future embarked on the unknown path.

Some occupied advantageous geographic locations, abusing their power to exploit the joy acquired from others.

Yet in this environment.

Selfless individuals still offered themselves, burning like candles, radiating residual warmth, aiming to provide comfort to those in need.

"Everyone, I'll take you to a hopeful place."

Lin Fan turned and spoke to them with a smile.

With a child around, his jumping speed reduced considerably.

Adults were fine.

But the child was still small, and too much bumpiness was not good.

...

The underground of the Old House Mountain Shelter has tunnels extending outward.

Jin Minghao's expression was displeased.

"Damn fellow, how could he appear here, always ruining our plans?"

This was about Lin Fan.

There's definitely a need to vent frustration.

Lin Fan is the nemesis of all zombies and apocalyptic bandits.

Jin Minghao escaped quickly, and if not for the hunch, the consequences of not fleeing timely were unimaginable. How such a terrifying human came to be, even an Awakener shouldn't be so daunting.

"The boss will be very angry."

Jin Minghao frowned, picked up the phone, and dialed a base.

"Li Long, is there an Awakener with you?"

"Yes."

"Great, I'll personally come to fetch it."

Meanwhile, at another shelter.

Li Long hung up the phone and glanced at Wu Dongliang beside him. Once a hope seeker, he transformed into a ruthless killer under Li Long's manipulation or perhaps influenced by the environment.

Li Long told Wu Dongliang that mercy equates to cruelty towards oneself.

The person didn't disappoint him.

Transitioning from initial hesitation to outright brutality.

If Mo Lan and Zhang Hao, who stayed at the Sunshine Shelter, knew their former companion turned into a demonic being, their hearts would undeniably ache.

Back then, they escaped together, and the choice to park once altered their paths amplously.

"Go sort out those Awakeners for me; soon someone will come to retrieve them."

"Yes."

Wu Dongliang lowered his head, his eyes gleaming with cruel determination as he made his way to a certain base location, having recently become a pitiless executioner.

Survivors meeting their end by his hands numbered no less than ten or eight.

Not to mention those he brutally tortured.

...

Inside the armored vehicle.

"Zombie Album..."

Huo Fen flipped through the book's "Zombie Album". The contents were indeed startling, opening his understanding, revealing many things he didn't know before.

Awakener.

He recalled some people in the main troops possessing natural strength.

Now it seemed that this natural strength was the Awakener.

And the crystals.

The kinds of zombies.

Various details constantly assaulted his mind.

A long time later.

He slowly closed the "Zombie Album," having finished reading its contents and mostly memorizing them.

This truly is the apocalyptic compendium.

"Lin Fan from Sunshine Shelter is truly an extraordinary person."

Huo Fen remarked.

Then he handed the "Zombie Album" to the people beside him, gathering them to read attentively, ensuring they firmly grasp its contents.

Subsequently, he touched the satellite phone.

It was entrusted to him by Lin Fan.

He seriously advised... If you encounter any dangerous situation, don't bravely hold on, don't take risks, ensure you call him, and wait for his arrival.

At this juncture, he truly realized.

This satellite phone would determine this small squad's safety.

Even at the cost of life.

This satellite phone should never be discarded.

Nighttime.

Sunshine Shelter in Huang City.

Lin Fan leaned on the sunny railing, gazing at the dazzling night. From the past, where only his home lit up, now the shelter was covered in lights.

He displayed a joyful yet gratifying smile.

Gazing into the distant darkness, seemingly vague yet perceiving the beautiful future hope waving him over.

This embodies the hope of living.

More so, the beautiful hope.

He knew it wasn't illusory, nor a hallucination.

As long as perseverance endures, it will come true.

Nights became late.

Lin Fan returned indoors, lying in bed, watching the sleeping Mengmeng, then covered himself with a blanket, gazed at the ceiling for a while, and softly closed his eyes, beginning to dream his dream.
