This was almost a massacre...
Who could be so depraved!
But judging by Mo Chen's expression, those people must have already left, posing no threat to them.
After tidying up the aftermath, the group started the car and continued on their way.
The atmosphere instantly became much heavier.
The car drove on for a while.
In the bushes ahead, two more dirt-covered feet were faintly visible.
"Screech..." The car stopped again.
This time, even Luo Xiao Le got out of the car.
She poked her head out to look.
There were several more corpses lying haphazardly in the bushes!
Just like the soldier had described earlier, they were completely naked.
There was nothing around...
Even while fleeing, people would usually carry some supplies or weapons. These people, however, had clearly been completely looted of everything.
Even their clothes...
They had died without dignity...
Although they were powerless to help, Luo Xiao Le and the others still covered them with a thin blanket from the trunk.
Who would be so ruthless?
The extent of this was that they had robbed almost everyone they encountered!
Robbery wasn't enough; they had to silence everyone? And even strip them of their clothes?
Luo Xiao Le suddenly recalled that the mother who gave her the map at the base entrance had mentioned finding her husband's personal weapon among the supplies Qin Ming Yang had given them...
Could it be... Qin Ming Yang...?
No...
Luo Xiao Le shook her head, dismissing her own conjecture.
If Qin Ming Yang and his group had overtaken them while rushing, Luo Xiao Le would have sensed it within a 15-kilometer radius when they passed.
But from beginning to end, Luo Xiao Le's ring had never detected Qin Ming Yang's location...
It was unlikely that Qin Ming Yang had gotten ahead of them and committed these acts...
Furthermore, Qin Ming Yang always maintained an impeccable image in public. He might rob, he might silence people, but Luo Xiao Le didn't think he would be capable of stripping others of their clothes.
After all, he still cared about his reputation.
Therefore, in Luo Xiao Le's mind, there was only one answer...
The Azure Dragon Gang.
Throughout their journey, only this gang had acted so outrageously. Almost no one associated with them seemed normal!
They were all perverts!
Luo Xiao Le cursed inwardly.
Zhou Shou Shan also seemed to have reached his own conclusion.
"Little friend Xiao Le, you mentioned before that the person who betrayed you might have joined the Azure Dragon Gang, right?"
Luo Xiao Le nodded, realizing they had arrived at the same thought.
"Let's move on," Zhou Shou Shan's voice was filled with authority.
He already had a plan for what to do next.
Forces that disrupted order and disregarded human life would not be tolerated on his territory.
...
The car soon officially entered the jurisdiction of the Luocheng Base.
The vehicles of other survivors began to increase gradually.
Luo Xiao Le looked out the window.
Most of the other people's vehicles were dilapidated, their windows and bodies stained with a lot of blood.
The dark green blood of zombies and the dried crimson blood of humans mingled together,
telling a tragic story on the car bodies.
Only Luo Xiao Le's vehicle, apart from some scratches around the edges and two squashed marks on the side,
had hardly any other damage.
In fact, the area around those two squashed marks on the side of the car even looked almost as good as new.
This strange sight immediately attracted others' attention.
So, during a short break when they stopped midway, many people curiously gathered around.
But as soon as they peered into the car windows and saw Zhou Shou Shan, whose face was full of authority, in the passenger seat, and Mo Chen in the back seat, radiating an aura of "stay away" with a cold expression,
everyone else shivered.
Then they directly approached Luo Xiao Le, who had just gotten out of the car to stretch her limbs.
"Which road did you come from?" someone asked, touching the side of the car. It truly had no other marks and was well-protected.
This was indeed very strange...
On their journey, they had suffered greatly from ordinary zombie hordes, mutated zombies, and even people who robbed others along the way, their cars almost falling apart from various attacks.
"Little sister, you look in good spirits. Did you not encounter many zombies?" The person, with a cigarette in his mouth and eyes full of "I have a story" look, gazed at Luo Xiao Le with a weathered expression.
Others also marveled at Luo Xiao Le's good luck.
After all, Luo Xiao Le's physique suggested she wasn't someone who could fight zombies.
Yet she had arrived here completely unharmed.
Their gazes met, and they continued to scan the car's interior, looking at Luo Xiao Le with envy.
"Your teammates protected you really well!"
"Right, we're almost at the territory of Luocheng Base. I heard the commander who just established this base has managed it very well. He's quite capable." After teasing Luo Xiao Le, they started chatting casually.
"That's why we've been rushing here day and night. We heard it's safe once you get in!"
"Yeah, we plan to eat this meal and then keep going. I heard there's a long queue to get into the base, so if we don't eat now, we won't have a chance to cook! Do you want some?" The men who were smoking had already become brothers.
Luo Xiao Le glanced to the side.
She saw several survivor convoys around them had set up simple makeshift shelters in open areas with good visibility by the roadside, either gnawing on dry rations or boiling some plain noodles.
Those who were cooking noodles and vegetable soup pretended not to see Luo Xiao Le looking their way, turning their backs.
"Look at that little girl, she's so thin. Should we ask her to come and eat? Maybe she's been hungry for days..."
"Why call her? We only have this much food left. It's fine to call those guys with weapons over to eat, but what's the use of calling that matchstick? She wouldn't be able to help if we get into danger!"
"That's true... Sigh... It's a pity to look at her..."
"In this godforsaken world, it's good enough to look after yourself. Don't be overly sympathetic. It's only a matter of time before people like her don't survive..."
Luo Xiao Le snorted. Even without Zhou Xiao Jun, she could guess what those people were saying from their expressions.
But she didn't care; she even felt like laughing.
"Burp..." She let out a silent burp.
She had suddenly felt hungry in the car earlier and had taken out a few boxes of pineapple cakes from the food stall to eat.
When her mental energy was significantly depleted, she usually ate more to quickly replenish it!
She was already feeling a bit too full...
She simply strolled a few steps around the safe areas, treating it as post-meal digestion.
"Um..." A voice suddenly sounded beside her.
"Do you want to come and eat with us? We have some extra food here, and we'll be entering the base soon, so we have enough for now." Another similar voice followed.
Luo Xiao Le turned her head and saw a pair of twins driving a beat-up small pickup truck, nibbling on a small piece of compressed biscuit beside the truck.
They also looked like they had been living rough.
Luo Xiao Le walked over in surprise and saw that in the backpacks scattered beside them, there were actually only two small bags of instant noodles left...
