A few minutes later, all the screams disappeared, and only the low roars of the zombies kept coming from around them. Zhang Hu stood on the roof, motionless, staring blankly at the middle-aged woman below who had turned into a zombie.

"You... bringing me out here, was it just to show me this?"

After a long time, Zhang Hu suddenly turned to look at Li Chenzhou and asked.

"Yes!"

Li Chenzhou came to Zhang Hu's side, watching the zombies that had once again surrounded the security room, and said:

"From the moment the Hell Silk descended, our world has already changed. It can only accommodate zombies, mutated beasts, and... people who can adapt to this world! This world doesn't need kind-hearted people, it doesn't need... heroes!"

Saying that, Li Chenzhou pointed in the direction Zhang Jinlong and the others had escaped:

"Just like those few guys, in order to survive, they can wound their companions and push them into the zombie horde to attract the zombies. You definitely don't approve of this approach, but they are the only ones who escaped!"

"I can't become like them, no matter what the world becomes!"

Zhang Hu said immediately.

"Of course! If you really became like that, I wouldn't be so close to you, because I'd be afraid you'd push me down!"

Li Chenzhou laughed:

"I just want you to know what humans will become when they enter the apocalypse and lose the constraints of law and morality!"

"I already know!"

Zhang Hu looked at the zombie Lao Wu, his eyes becoming a little vacant:

"This guy desperately tried to hold onto his wife, but he never expected that it would be his wife who personally pushed him towards the zombies! I will never forget the look in his eyes when he was being bitten by the zombies, as he looked at his wife, and I... I never want to look at others with that kind of look before I die, so I let go!"

"Being able to understand this is enough for you to survive in this world!"

Li Chenzhou patted Zhang Hu's shoulder and reached out to take the steel bar in his hand:

"As for the rest, let's talk about it after we leave here!"

"Let me do it! I want to vent, and also... accumulate some experience!"

Zhang Hu dodged his hand, staring at the zombies below.

"Alright!"

Li Chenzhou nodded, then brought up the system panel.

"Ding! Recruit Li Chenzhou hopes to recruit you as his follower, do you agree?"

Just as Zhang Hu took a deep breath, preparing to start the slaughter again, a voice suddenly sounded in his mind.

Zhang Hu stopped and suddenly turned to look at Li Chenzhou:

"Yesterday, Duan Lei suddenly shouted 'I agree', was it because of this?"

"Yes!"

Li Chenzhou nodded and said:

"Before the apocalypse, I became some kind of slayer. Whether I kill zombies or anything else, I can get slaughter points, and I can use these slaughter points to buy many things that can make me stronger! Including weapons, equipment, food, and water!

After you become my follower, I can also get the corresponding slaughter points for the zombies you kill. I am a Recruit now, and I can have up to five followers!"

While explaining to Zhang Hu, Li Chenzhou simply attributed his predictive ability to the slaughter system so as not to reveal his rebirth.

"No wonder... you just said, don't kill these zombies first, so as not to waste them!"

Zhang Hu was stunned for a moment, then looked at the zombies below, muttering to himself. When he saw the middle-aged woman who had turned into a zombie, he suddenly froze, looked at Li Chenzhou again, and asked with a serious face:

"If I hadn't let go just now, but had pulled her up, then I wouldn't be able to become this follower? Otherwise, you could have done that last night!"

"It's not that you couldn't become one, but you couldn't become one temporarily!"

Li Chenzhou smiled and stepped forward, grabbing Zhang Hu's shoulder and said just as seriously:

"You saved my life, so I will never give up on you! The reason I brought you out this time is because I know that your previous personality is not suitable for this apocalypse, so I must show you what this world is like now! And let you change for it.

As for why I didn't take you and Duan Lei as followers last night, it's also for this reason.

I don't have to explain anything to Duan Lei, and he won't take the initiative to ask, but you can't. I have to explain it to you clearly like I just did."

Speaking of this, Li Chenzhou looked at the zombies below:

"According to my understanding of you, if you knew about the existence of slaughter points before, you would probably have thought of a way to kill all the zombies here with me and then save everyone. In fact, we do have such ability.

But if we really did that, how far could we go in this world with such a group of people? I think you should be able to imagine it now, right?"

Hearing Li Chenzhou's words, Zhang Hu was stunned, and after a long time, he finally shook his head with a wry smile:

"That's right! If I had known it earlier, I would have done that, and then, in the near future, the situation just now would happen again, and we would become a part of it!"

"That's right!"

Li Chenzhou nodded:

"We can now use slaughter points to make ourselves stronger, and we can exchange them for food and water, so we can go very far in this apocalypse, but the premise is... we don't become saviors!"

"Alright! You don't have to keep pointing it out to me!"

Zhang Hu shook his head and smiled bitterly, somewhat discouraged, and said:

"Those people just now have vividly shown me this new world. I won't be like I was before. That will not only put me in hell, but also drag you down. You're right, this world doesn't need heroes, nor does it need saviors. We may only need to save ourselves!"

Saying that, Zhang Hu picked up the steel bar, raised it, and stabbed it fiercely at the middle-aged woman below who had become a zombie. At the same time, the system's voice also sounded in Li Chenzhou's mind:

"Congratulations, you have gained a follower. Any creature he kills will bring you the corresponding slaughter points!"

At the same time, the follower's data also changed:

Followers: 2/5

1: Duan Lei, Loyalty: 100, Combat Power: 10.

2: Zhang Hu, Loyalty: 92, Combat Power: 8.

Judging from the data, Zhang Hu seemed to be inferior to Duan Lei, especially in combat power. Zhang Hu, who had liked fighting since he was a child, only had 8 points of combat power, which was two points less than Duan Lei, who had a disability.

However, Zhang Hu's combat power must come from his strength. This guy is quite strong, already reaching 8, which is already quite difficult. After all, the upper limit is not so easy to reach. Duan Lei's can only be said to be a special case, so Li Chenzhou felt that he had found a treasure.

As for loyalty, as long as it exceeds 80, it means that they will never betray, and those over 90 can even fight to the death for Li Chenzhou.

However, Zhang Hu may not execute Li Chenzhou's orders 100%.

For example, when Zhang Hu first said he wanted to save people, Zhang Hu probably wouldn't give up easily. In addition, if Li Chenzhou wanted to do something like Duan Lei predicted at the convenience store, Zhang Hu would definitely come over to stop him.

This is why Zhang Hu's loyalty score is not full, and Duan Lei... he will definitely execute Li Chenzhou's orders 100%. As for the reason, Li Chenzhou doesn't know now, maybe he can only find out by asking him himself.

The number of zombies below had reached seventy or eighty, which looked quite terrifying, but Zhang Hu, who was high above, killed them quite easily, one at a time, and Li Chenzhou's slaughter points were also constantly increasing.

At this time, Zhang Hu's face also became a little ferocious, gritting his teeth and glaring at those zombies. Just like he said, his slaughter at this time was more likely to vent the depression and anger in his heart...

It took more than ten minutes before Zhang Hu stopped, sat down on his butt, panting heavily, and handed the steel bar in his hand to Li Chenzhou.

Li Chenzhou looked at the time and the almost scrap-like dagger, replaced it with another dagger, and then began to slaughter as well.

"Broken Ship! If we can gradually become stronger by killing, what about the others? You said before that humans will also become stronger, wouldn't you be referring to killing?"

Looking at Li Chenzhou, who was skillfully killing zombies, Zhang Hu suddenly pointed to the zombies' corpses below and asked:

"For example, is there anything like evolution crystals in the heads of these zombies? It seems that's how it's written in apocalyptic novels!"

"You've read apocalyptic novels?"

Li Chenzhou turned his head to look at Zhang Hu in surprise. Zhang Hu instantly understood what he meant and said somewhat awkwardly:

"Not every apocalyptic novel is so cruel, there are also some... kind protagonists!"

"Are you talking about Mary Sues?"

Li Chenzhou laughed, then killed another zombie:

"That's right, there are indeed crystal nuclei in the heads of zombies, but none of these have them now. Only the heads of strengthened zombies and mutated beasts can give birth to crystal nuclei.

After absorbing the crystal nucleus, one can become a strengthener. If one can obtain skills, they are called evolvers. If one is lucky enough to comprehend a talent, then they are an Awakened!"

"Then... can we exchange killing points for crystal nuclei?"

Zhang Hu's eyes lit up.

"No! But we can exchange them for various potions, which are much stronger than crystal nuclei!"

Li Chenzhou replied:

"However, exchanging potions requires a large number of killing points, so during the early stages of the apocalypse, we must kill more zombies and quickly complete the initial accumulation!"

"Slaughter..."

Zhang Hu looked at the zombies below and suddenly smiled ferociously:

"Very good, if I can't save people, then I will kill zombies like crazy in the future. As long as I clean up all these ugly guys, our world will be able to return to normal, right?"

Hearing this, Li Chenzhou was dumbfounded.

Damn it, after tossing around for so long, this guy doesn't want to save people, but he wants to start saving the Earth?

Just then, the roar of a car suddenly came from a distance, and at the same time, a very familiar voice sounded:

"Boss, save me!"
