"Cào nǐ mā de!"

Looking at the brother and sister kneeling on the ground, crying with their heads in their hands, Zhang Hu, feeling deeply oppressed, kicked the fence door hard, glaring at the outside world and cursing through gritted teeth.

This guy was reckless and irritable, but he had a good heart and often stood up for the oppressed, repeatedly suffering losses but remaining true to himself. This was why, in his previous life, he was bitten on the first day for protecting Li Chenzhou and ultimately became a zombie—in the apocalypse, good people usually die young.

Li Chenzhou ignored Zhang Hu, simply watching the two siblings quietly. He hadn't paid much attention to them before. He originally planned to stay there until dawn, then take some food and water and leave with Zhang Hu, leaving the two to fend for themselves.

But now, because of the system and the boy's words earlier, Li Chenzhou had a new idea.

Although this boy was disabled, he was quite intelligent. Only a few minutes after the apocalypse, he could foresee what the future world would be like and immediately make the best choice.

The sister was indeed quite beautiful, even more so than some celebrities, and her figure was quite hot. Such a woman, in the apocalypse, either had to be a strong person herself or rely on a strong person; otherwise, she would truly be reduced to a man's plaything.

Having spent ten years in the apocalypse, Li Chenzhou could guarantee that if he really let these two siblings struggle in this apocalypse, the most tragic fate the boy had mentioned would almost certainly befall them.

At least, in his previous life, Li Chenzhou had never heard of these two siblings, which was enough to prove their future fate.

"Hey! What's your name?"

Li Chenzhou finally spoke. The boy raised his head, looking at Li Chenzhou with teary eyes and said:

"Big brother! My name is Duan Lei, and my sister is Duan Xue!"

"I'm curious, how do you know that the two of us won't be like you said, using you to force your sister to satisfy us?"

Li Chenzhou asked.

"I've seen a lot of men who have ideas about my sister. The way you two look at my sister doesn't have the desire in their eyes!"

Duan Lei smiled bitterly and shook his head slowly:

"And... there are only four of us in here now. If you wanted to do something, I'm afraid you wouldn't have waited until now."

Saying that, Duan Lei also pointed outside:

"In this situation, people are most fearful and bewildered. Having a beautiful girl to vent and relax would make anyone drop their pretense. Since you haven't done anything yet, it means you haven't thought about it that way.

Especially the big brother who kicked the door, let alone not doing such a thing himself, he would probably step in to stop others from doing it."

"Your brain is quite useful!"

Li Chenzhou couldn't help but laugh.

"If my legs don't work, then I have to have something useful, otherwise, what's the difference between me and trash?"

Duan Lei said with a look of sorrow.

"Mm!"

Li Chenzhou nodded, then opened the Slaughter Shop, clicked on the potion category, looked at the potions inside, and then pulled up his attribute panel and clicked on one of the options.

"Ding! Private Li Chenzhou wishes to recruit you as his follower, do you agree?"

At the same time, a voice rang in the boy's mind. He was shocked, looked up at Li Chenzhou, and found that Li Chenzhou was staring at him calmly.

"Agree!"

The boy immediately realized something, a look of ecstasy shooting from his eyes, and shouted loudly.

The next moment, a voice also sounded in Li Chenzhou's mind:

"Congratulations, you have gained a follower. Any creature he kills will bring you corresponding Slaughter Points!"

At the same time, a change also occurred in the follower section of Li Chenzhou's personal panel:

Followers: 1/5

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

Seeing Duan Lei's combat power, Li Chenzhou was startled and immediately looked at Duan Lei in front of him.

Li Chenzhou was currently a Private and could only take five followers. The follower panel did not display the follower's specific attributes and skills, but used combat power to display them, and the value of the combat power was the highest of all the follower's attributes!

Duan Lei was disabled and had to walk with crutches, so attributes like strength must be quite poor. Therefore, this value could only be his mental attribute.

Li Chenzhou did think of recruiting him as a follower because Duan Lei was very smart, but he didn't expect that this guy's spirit actually reached the limit value of ordinary people, and even his loyalty was full from the start. This is... a treasure?

"I don't agree!"

Duan Xue and Zhang Hu couldn't hear that voice, so they didn't know what Duan Lei's inexplicable agreement meant. Duan Xue thought Duan Lei was agreeing to go out and use himself as bait to attract zombies, and immediately shouted loudly.

"Keep your voice down, you'll attract zombies!"

Li Chenzhou immediately looked at Duan Xue and said, then pulled up Duan Lei, looked at the stairs behind the door he came out of, and asked:

"What's upstairs? Are there any other entrances and exits?"

"No!"

Duan Lei immediately shook his head:

"Upstairs are bedrooms, a kitchen, and a bathroom, about the same size as downstairs!"

"Mm! Take your sister upstairs, get some food or something!"

Li Chenzhou nodded, then turned to look outside.

At this time, the fiery red sky outside had long disappeared, darkness had once again engulfed the night sky, only the city lights were still brightly lit, igniting this night destined to be remembered by countless people.

"Zombies have very poor eyesight, even within three meters, they can hardly distinguish whether you are a human or one of their own, but their hearing and sense of smell are quite sensitive, so, the night... belongs to the zombies!"

Walking to the door, Li Chenzhou looked outside and said:

"Tonight, we'll hide here for the night. Tomorrow morning, we'll go out to hunt zombies. At least in the first week, there won't be any enhanced zombies. So, if you want to survive, you must adapt to this new world within a week and break out of the city!"

"Break out of the city?"

Zhang Hu looked at Li Chenzhou:

"Broken Boat, there's food and drink here, and there's space upstairs, can't we just stay here? Maybe... there will be rescue?"

"There won't be any rescue, and the city in the future will be the zombies' world. This door can only block ordinary zombies! It's useless against enhanced zombies. If we wait until the enhanced zombies appear before trying to escape, it will be too late."

Li Chenzhou knocked on the iron gate and said:

"Also, this thing can't stop our own kind either. Before long, hunger will drive the survivors out of their hiding places, and this place will become the target of many people—in the zombie-infested apocalypse, never only treat zombies as your enemy!"

Hearing Li Chenzhou's words, Zhang Hu subconsciously looked back at Duan Lei, not to guard against him, but because he was reminded of his words earlier.

Soon, Duan Lei went upstairs with Duan Xue's support, while Zhang Hu just sat on the ground at the door, staring blankly at the outside world.

Li Chenzhou found a place with a good view and lay down, then opened the Slaughter Shop and began to carefully browse the items inside.

Although he only had three Slaughter Points now, he wanted to be clear about the things in the shop, so he could decide how to go in the future...

When the first ray of dawn after the apocalypse broke through the darkness and opened the curtain of this new world, Li Chenzhou and Zhang Hu were ready to set off.

"You two just wait here, Hu Zi and I will be back in about an hour or two. Remember my words, no matter who it is, and no matter what they say, you must not open the door!"

Li Chenzhou once again instructed Duan Lei and Duan Xue. He didn't know what Duan Lei had said to Duan Xue last night, but in short, Duan Xue was very quiet today, and there was no longer any hostility in her eyes when she looked at Li Chenzhou and Zhang Hu!

"Don't worry! Boss! I'll go back upstairs with my sister in a while and pretend there's no one here!"

Duan Lei nodded in agreement.

"Let's go!"

Li Chenzhou carried a backpack he had prepared, patted Zhang Hu, and the two walked out of the convenience store. Li Chenzhou locked all the iron shutters on the windows and doors from the outside, threw the key to Duan Lei, and then left with Zhang Hu.

Before, Li Chenzhou had planned to leave with all four of them, but after thinking about it, he decided to take Zhang Hu out for a spin first.

What Li Chenzhou was most worried about now was actually Zhang Hu. Yesterday, when that middle-aged man came and slapped the door, Zhang Hu subconsciously prepared to open the door for him. From this, it could be seen what kind of personality Zhang Hu had—basically, he could be said to be a saint!

And in the apocalypse, this kind of person was the most undesirable. Not only would they not live long, but they might also implicate their teammates.

But for Li Chenzhou, Zhang Hu was not only his childhood friend, but he had also turned into a zombie to protect him in his previous life, and Li Chenzhou would not give up on this guy no matter what.

Therefore, he thought of taking Zhang Hu out for a spin first, to let him adapt to this world, and also to get a car back!

Leaving the convenience store, Li Chenzhou specifically asked Zhang Hu to hold the baseball bat and walk in front, while he followed behind with two daggers.

Li Chenzhou still didn't take ordinary zombies very seriously. Even if his current physical attributes were very poor, as long as it wasn't a horde of a dozen or even dozens of zombies, Li Chenzhou was confident that he could kill them.

Not to mention that he now had the fog of war, so he let Zhang Hu go in front, so that he could adapt to this apocalypse as soon as possible.

After a night, the street had become quite quiet, only some vehicles and buildings that had caught fire last night were crackling, as for zombies or humans, they were nowhere to be seen.

Just after passing an intersection, a loud cry for help came from above their heads. Looking up, in the residential area on the right, a woman in her fifties was waving desperately at them from the window on the third floor, with an old man of about the same age standing beside her, his face full of anxiety and fear.

"Broken Boat, let's go save them!"

Zhang Hu immediately turned around, speaking at the same time.

Looking at Zhang Hu's back, Li Chenzhou shook his head and smiled bitterly, knowing that this guy would be like this, but it was also good, the sooner this kind of thing came, the sooner he would wake up.

So, Li Chenzhou didn't speak, just followed closely...
