Apocalyptic Reincarnation: Start with a 30-million Bonus

More than 200 people who escaped from Weng City have now scattered.

They are still exhausted, still without food, still struggling on the brink of life and death.

They have no food; the bark on the roadside trees has been eaten clean.

Having just escaped from death, although they stole a breath of life, they are not far from death now.

The man with the pompadour is now somewhat frantic.

People around him dare not speak to him.

”Damn it, they actually have guns! How are we supposed to deal with this?” the pompadour man growled under his breath.

”What about the siblings? Did they make it out?” he continued.

”No, I saw them at that time; it seemed like they were instantly overwhelmed by the crowd. They’re probably dead by now,” a muscular man next to him said.

As he spoke, the images from just before flashed through his mind; the people at the base were too ruthless. They opened fire and if he hadn’t been following the pompadour man closely, he would have been dead by now.

”Alas, we’re hopeless now, we can only look elsewhere,” the pompadour man sighed.

”Big brother, where can we go now?” the muscular man asked.

”Where can we go? I don’t even know,” the pompadour man said bleakly, looking up at the sky with a long sigh.

On the other side, there was a group that included the squad leader, who was also somewhat shaken.

Just now, he saw the people at the base pulling out submachine guns, which really made him envious and resentful. If only they had these weapons back at Poyang Lake, it wouldn’t have come to this.

”Old Four, how much food do we still have?” the squad leader suddenly asked the person next to him.

”Well, well, less than 5 pieces of bread, also two bottles of alcohol, and 4 chocolate bars. That’s it,” Old Four checked the shriveled pack and sighed.

”Eh, these things won’t last us long. We need to find food quickly, or we’ll end up like them,” the squad leader glancing at some people a few meters away.

These people are extremely emaciated, practically skin and bones with their skeletal structure clearly visible.

The skin on their faces clung directly to their bones, making them look like skeletons.

Their complexions were waxy yellow, and they didn’t look like they would live much longer.

Moreover, due to a long time without food, extreme hunger, and physical weakness, as well as having gone through a rigorous excursion just now.

Humans have a great desire to live; just now, some people, having barely any strength, still squeezed out their last bit of essence in the face of a chance to live.

At this moment, their physical stamina, nearly exhausted during the escape.

Watching, over 20 people here are about to collapse.

Where should they go from here?

....

Atop Weng City.

Li Yu stood with his rifle, watching over Weng City below.

At the spot closest to the inner gate, the siblings were already dead.

From the perspective of Yang Tianlong, Dapao, Li Hang, and others, it was this pair of siblings that caused so many to attack.

Initially, they had also seen these siblings, so when they opened fire and killed them, they paid special attention to this pair.

The siblings were riddled with bullets.

Those who were still alive saw that the gunfire had finally stopped and looked around.

Bodies were everywhere, some people were frightened to madness.

Some stood frozen in place.

Some eyes held a hint of hope.

Two others simply knelt on the ground, begging for mercy.

”Where did you all come from?” came Li Yu’s cold voice.

From the perspective of their group of ten, the voice sounded like a booming bell, since Li Yu was speaking from a higher position.

With Weng City being enclosed, Li Yu’s voice seemed to come from the heavens.

Then it echoed continuously within Weng City: where are you from, where are you from.

From, from.

From. From.

No one dared to answer.

Their bodies shook like sieves.

Fear. Fear. Desperation.

Li Yu’s patience with enemies was always low, and at this moment, he just wanted to get their information as quickly as possible and finish this matter.

A full ten seconds passed without a response.

Li Yu fired directly, a shot to the head of one.

Pfft!

The head burst like a watermelon.

It shocked several people nearby.

After the killing, someone from Weng City said: ”We are not together, originally, we came from the border.”

Hearing this, Li Yu was not surprised.

In chaotic times, refugees are good at banding together.

Uniting is the only way to conquer another base, although many might die in the assault, some will survive and get food.

It is a survival of the fittest. It all depends on one’s luck and courage.

”Whose orders are you following?” Li Yu asked again.

The same man, looking at Li Yu fearfully, said: ”We don’t necessarily follow anyone’s orders, but during this period, there happened to be a man who suggested we rush in. Seizing the opportunity, under his encouragement, we all rushed in.”

Li Yu narrowed his eyes and asked, ”Where is that man?”

The people from Weng City looked at Li Yu and then at the bodies around.

Said: ”I’m not sure.”

Li Yu responded: ”Then you remember his face, right? Now, find him among these bodies.”

Li Yu’s voice was unquestionable.

Upon his command, most people began to search.

Just that there were one or two people, still frozen in place.

Li Yu fired a shot next to them. He didn’t kill them because he wanted to keep them to find the man.

Yet, these two remained motionless.

No sign of movement.

Seeing that the remaining eight men were moving slowly, Li Yu fired two shots.

He killed these two men.

Under the new threat of these two lost lives, the other eight moved faster.

They flipped over bodies, searching.

Some bodies had their heads blown off, recognizable only by their clothing.

Some were uncertain and sought others’ confirmation.

Over 700 bodies, they searched for over ten minutes.

Li Yu, patient, waited upstairs for those minutes.

The others from the base had also come to the wall.

Li Yu dispatched about ten people to guard the entire perimeter wall of the base.

Except for the older children, he asked them to return to the base.

The other 30 or so people watched from the wall of Weng City.

Later, they would also have to clean up the bodies.

Li Yu’s grandmother was a Buddhist.

Li Yu specifically forbade her from coming to the wall to witness these killings.

Grandma had accepted killing zombies and killing in self-defense, but killing so many people at once.

It could easily give an old person nightmares.

The act of killing is a sin, a type of evil karma.

If there must be a reason found for killing, there is only one: such killing can prevent the killing of those one cares about, this type of killing can seemingly cease the endless cycle of killings.

To stop killing by killing!
