Zang Pengfei quickly ran towards the outskirts of Chaihe Town.
Reflecting on the little things that happened after he came into contact with Wen Yu, Zang Pengfei suddenly felt that Wen Yu was not the kind of person who sought death.
Moreover, looking back now, Wen Yu's big dog had jumped straight into the fire pit when facing the corpse king, which was very strange.
The more he thought about it, the more uneasy he felt, and Zang Pengfei once again increased his speed.
As he ran further away, sporadic zombies began to appear along the way.
Zang Pengfei's heart sank.
Looking at the aimless movements of these zombies, there was definitely no leader among them.
Or rather, they had already lost their leader.
"Go to hell, my underlings."
After hesitating for a moment and cursing under his breath, Zang Pengfei directly drew his weapon and charged towards the zombies.
Faced with the choice of possibly losing power or strengthening his personal strength, Zang Pengfei chose the latter!
...
In the survivor team, as they had already passed through most of Chaihe Town, Sun Aotian slowly realized that something was off.
Zang Pengfei had been gone for too long!
With Zang Pengfei's skills, he definitely had life-saving items, and even if he encountered the corpse king, he would not be easily taken down unless something unexpected happened.
"Stop, stop, don’t move forward!"
Sun Aotian shouted loudly to the group of hundreds.
The crowd looked at Sun Aotian in confusion.
If it weren't for Sun Aotian being the strongest in the camp, no one would pay attention to such a foolish command!
"Xiao Wen, you lead the team forward, but don’t leave Chaihe Town."
Sun Aotian instructed Zang Pengfei's capable assistant.
"This..."
Xiao Wen hesitated, completely unsure of what Sun Aotian meant.
Without Zang Pengfei, everyone should have listened to Xiao Wen's orders, but Sun Aotian's strength made it impossible for Xiao Wen to ignore him!
"It’s possible, I said it’s possible, that man named Wen Yu has already taken down the zombie king! Once that happens, we can return to Chaihe Town and won’t need to run anymore."
Sun Aotian directly voiced his speculation.
Seeing Xiao Wen nod, Sun Aotian turned around and ran along the path that Zang Pengfei had taken.
...
Wen Yu sat on a relatively clean patch of ground, quietly wiping the steel knife in his hand.
The e-level steel knife, covered in thick blood, even had some dull edges.
From the state of the knife, one could see how many zombies had died under it!
Around Wen Yu were the remains of zombies.
In the sky, a hint of dawn began to appear, and the harvesting operation had been going on for an entire night!
"Old Sun, let’s go, let’s find another place."
This area had already been swept clean by Wen Yu, and there was nothing left that could provide him with points.
"I'm not going, I’m too tired. I want to find Zang Pengfei and the others."
Sun Ruixing said hesitantly.
To Wen Yu, the zombies were a means of moving points, but to Sun Ruixing, they were not friendly at all!
"Okay, that works. Once I finish dealing with these zombies, I will come find you."
After making an agreement with Sun Ruixing, Wen Yu followed the traces of the zombies’ movement and directly pursued them.
On the other side, after a night of fighting, Zang Pengfei returned to the survivor team.
When Zang Pengfei announced that Chaihe Town had been regained under human control, everyone couldn’t help but burst forth with hope for survival.
Organizing professionals to clear out the zombies, and ordinary people to rebuild their homes.
Everything was progressing in a positive direction!
...
When Wen Yu and the One-eyed returned to Chaihe Town, it was already the morning of the fourth day.
The One-eyed's injuries had completely healed the day after the battle, and with its keen sense of smell, Wen Yu significantly improved the efficiency of finding zombies, even killing a few mutated beasts that had wandered out of the mountains along the way.
