I hacked through the chaotic world with my blade

"The Corpse Ball rolled here, indicating that Sunshine Shelter in Huang City might still be the place some zombies most want to destroy."

Lin Fan knew this well when it came to some intelligent zombies.

He was the factor hindering the development of zombies.

For instance, those who know about his Creator sent zombies to make trouble for him, aiming to obliterate Sunshine Shelter.

"Zhu Cheng, be careful when you're outside in the future. If you see any strange zombies, remember to inform me," Lin Fan advised.

Zhu Cheng replied, "Understood."

Regarding his own strength, Zhu Cheng was clear about what he was suited for—fighting and hunting zombies might be awkward, but observation was definitely top-notch.

Old Zhong asked, "Do you suspect the Corpse Ball intentionally came here?"

Lin Fan shook his head and said, "I don't know, I'm just guessing a bit. It's better to be on the safe side; being careless can lead to trouble."

Often, unnecessary disasters are caused by carelessness. If caution can be exercised, many can be avoided.

Old Zhong took Lin Fan's words to heart. It seems he'd really need to be cautious when going outside in the future.

He was the oldest in the team.

Naturally, he should also be the most composed one.

The survivors were already picking crystals from the piles of zombie flesh.

No one minded the disgusting blood and flesh. With hands covered in War Armor, they turned over the flesh and placed the found crystals into a bag.

Even though they always stayed in Sunshine Shelter in Huang City, they also knew the value of crystals. While here they might be common and worthless, outside, they're things that people would scramble for.

Even the children's lessons included courses about crystals.

Just because the shelter doesn't lack them, doesn't mean the crystals are valueless.

Ye Qian's expression seemed a bit somber, "It seems my ability can't deal with zombies of too high a stage."

She could condense her spirit into a bullet, formless and silent. With the improvement of her ability, she felt she could easily kill high-level zombies.

But reality was often cruel. When she dealt with high-level zombies, she found they could sense her shooting bullets and always managed to block them.

Lin Fan said, "Don't doubt yourself; your ability is strong, and we've always been working as a team, never alone, correct? Even if Old Zhong can elevate his ability to this stage, if a one-on-one fight, he might not necessarily be a match for high-level zombies."

He could only say this.

There was no other recourse.

Otherwise, should he say...your thoughts could be right; Wenwen's telekinesis is so strong, she doesn't need a team, she can handle everything by herself.

But can such words be said?

Definitely not.

It doesn't align with the values of the shelter.

The comforted Ye Qian felt much better.

Lin Fan's words were effective for them; no matter how others said them, it wouldn't work.

The more, the merrier.

The collection progress was swift. The Corpse Ball was indeed huge, but there were only so many Evolutionary Zombies.

When the survivors who had finished collecting gradually returned.

Lin Fan said, "I'll go check around. You take the crystals back and store them properly."

After finishing, he headed toward the distance.

...

Night.

Red Sun Martial Arts School.

Cui Xiaofei was assigned a separate dormitory. Touching the bedding, looking at the dormitory environment, he recalled various past moments; he grew up here, experiencing many things.

Feeling moved by care.

The hardships of training.

He thought everything would progress well, but didn't expect life's unpredictability, resulting in such events, which thoroughly disrupted his life's rhythm.

But the past is past.

No need to reminisce.

Knock, knock!

Cui Xiaofei opened the door, standing at the entrance was Song Tao, the Mediterranean Director of Education.

"Director Song, anything?"

Cui Xiaofei asked. The Song Director in front of him gave the impression of being ambitious and thoughtful, and as for why he didn't overthrow the Principal, he probably knew his power wasn't sufficient.

Song Tao smiled broadly, giving off a very smooth impression, "I've always heard the principal talk about you, so I specifically came to see you and chat a bit."

"Come in." Cui Xiaofei stepped aside, waited for Song Tao to enter, closed the dorm door, went to the bedside, sat down, and extended his hand, inviting him to sit down and rest a bit.

Song Tao had continuously observed Cui Xiaofei. From the first time they met, he felt this Cui Xiaofei, who was always mentioned by the principal, was absolutely not an ordinary person, especially having survived until now in the apocalypse—a sure sign of being extraordinary.

"Can I call you Xiaofei?"

"Sure."

"Oh, that's good, Xiaofei, forgive my straightforwardness, are you an Awakener?"

Cui Xiaofei looked him directly in the eyes, smiled, and said, "Yes."

"I figured, if you weren't an Awakener, how could you survive until now in such a dangerous apocalypse," Song Tao said with a smile. Before acquiring the Zombie Album and meeting Lin Fan, how was one to know what to call such abilities?

Now they're all clear, and also have received crystals from Lin Fan to enhance their abilities.

Cui Xiaofei's gaze remained calm and unwavering as he watched Song Tao, no fluctuations in his emotions, making it somewhat difficult for Song Tao to open a conversation.

He sensed that Cui Xiaofei coming here definitely wasn't just to take a look. The apocalypse being so dangerous, who in their right mind would think of coming to take a look at the former martial arts school?

Surely there's something going on.
