Extreme Cold Apocalypse: My Shelter is Full of Beautiful Women

But that's what's truly terrifying.

Even though there were burning corpses lying on the ground and the air was filled with the stench of burnt flesh, he could still wear such an innocent smile.

It was as if killing was just a part of his daily life, no different from drinking water or eating a meal.

"What... what's going on?"

Ali's voice broke the silence, trembling involuntarily.

He had fought monsters with Xu Qiang, seen blood, and killed people.

But he had never seen anyone laugh as contentedly as if they were basking in the sun after killing someone.

"Boss, he seems to be stronger than us."

Xu Qiang swallowed.

"It seems so."

He guessed that Ye Yan was just being modest.

But now it seems that this was hardly modesty!

What does it mean to be bad at something?

The methods and means of this murder are comparable to those of a serial killer!

And what's with those flames?

Isn't he part of the sequence of the creative pathways?

Why would you use a sequence of elements?

Countless questions arose in his mind, but Xu San quickly interrupted them.

"Boss, they seem to be from that guy in Building 9."

Xu San's voice was trembling.

He recognized the gold chain around the bald man's neck.

That's Zhao Tianchen's younger brother, Zhao Tianci.

The troublemaker that no one in the entire neighborhood dares to mess with.

Xu Qiang recognized him too.

But what he cared about more was Zhao Tianchen.

"You can't kill him!"

Seeing Ye Yan tighten his grip, the half-dead guy started rolling his eyes, and Xu Qiang immediately spoke up to stop him.

Why?

Ye Yan stopped what she was doing, turned her head to look at Xu Qiang, and asked with genuine doubt in her voice.

He glanced at Xu Qiang.

This man, who could lead two men on a hunting trip in minus fifty degrees Celsius and still become the leader, is definitely not a weak and indecisive person.

There must be a good reason for someone to stop him from killing.

"Because he is the younger brother of the owner of Building 9, whose name is Zhao Tianchen, and he is also a Sequence Awakener."

Xu Qiang deliberately emphasized the words "Sequence Awakener".

He had thought that Ye Yan would hesitate upon hearing this news.

In fact, Ye Yan did hesitate for a moment.

Ye Yan realized that he had been truly ignorant before.

At the same time, a strange feeling arose in his mind.

Very strange.

In order to obtain information from the outside world, he basically kept his phone with him at all times, except when he was fishing, and he read all the messages in the group.

But I never saw anyone in the group talking about the sequence awakeners in the community.

There are many outside the residential area, though.

Therefore, Ye Yan subconsciously believed that Sequence Awakeners were quite rare.

Now it seems that it is probably not as rare as he imagined.

And here comes another one.

"Sequence Awakeners, huh...that's really troublesome."

Ye Yan muttered to himself, his brows furrowing slightly.

"That's right, that's right, let him go, and we'll talk things over."

Xu Qiang breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Ye Yan had taken his words to heart.

After all, even he would have a lot of trouble dealing with Zhao Tianchen.

Hearing his brother's name, Zhao Tianci, who was being held by the neck and lifted into the air, immediately changed from a terrified expression to an arrogant one.

He struggled desperately, shouting in a hoarse voice:

"No...that's right! My brother Zhao Tianchen is a Sequence Awakener! If you dare to lay a finger on me, my brother will kill you all!"

Seeing that Ye Yan did not make a move immediately, Zhao Tianci assumed that the other party was afraid, and became even bolder.

"You can still release me now! Kneel down and kowtow three times, then hand over that torch. If I'm in a good mood, I might just break your legs!"

He grinned, revealing a mouthful of teeth stained with blood.

"Otherwise, my brother will make you wish you were dead—"

"Are you done talking?"

Ye Yan interrupted him.

His tone was so calm, it was as if he were asking a question.

"Have you got a meal yet?"

But that calm tone, coupled with that unwavering, serene expression, somehow instilled a sense of dread.

At that moment, Zhao Tianci suddenly realized that this guy was definitely not a normal person!

"What...what do you want to do?"

Zhao Tianci's voice began to tremble, his arrogant demeanor as if doused with a bucket of cold water.

"I'm warning you, my brother really will—"

"No, no!"

He suddenly realized that Ye Yan was really capable of taking action, and desperately twisted his body to try to break free.

"Please, don't kill me! I'll get my brother to give you something, anything—"

call.

He didn't finish his sentence.

The man's body suddenly burst into flames from the inside.

"Aaaaaaahh ...

A heart-wrenching scream echoed across the boundless snowfield. Flames burst from his mouth, nose, ears, and even his pores. Zhao Tianci struggled desperately, trying to roll in the snow to extinguish the flames on his body.

"Ah... my brother... won't let you get away with this..."

He used his last bit of strength to utter those words, and then he fell silent.

His body slumped into the snow with a thud, twitched twice, and then lay still.

His underlings had already tried it.

This flame, fueled by the very essence of the soul, cannot be extinguished.

In the blink of an eye, a charred corpse appeared on the snow.

"Why, why?"

Xu Qiang looked shocked.

He never expected that Ye Yan, who was just laughing and hesitating, would actually kill someone.

Ye Yan's answer sent chills down his spine.

Why? Because, of course.

Ye Yan released his grip, and the burning corpse slumped into the snow with a thud, twitched twice, and then remained still.

He brushed off non-existent dust from his hands and said matter-of-factly:

"Now that we've already offended them, we can't leave any survivors."

Xu Qiang was not unable to understand this statement.

He understands.

In the apocalypse, when grudges are formed, letting a tiger return to the mountain is tantamount to suicide.

But what he couldn't understand was...

The tone of Ye Yan's voice when she said that.

It was said casually and matter-of-factly, as if it were just saying, "The weather is nice today."

Killing someone is as easy as crushing an ant.

No, it's even more casual than crushing an ant.

Crushing an ant at least requires force, but he kills a person without even blinking an eye.

Only then did Xu Qiang realize Ye Yan's "abnormality".

He is definitely not a normal person.

It even made Xu Qiang subconsciously avoid contact.

"Did I do something wrong?"

Ye Yan noticed the strange expression on Xu Qiang's face, tilted his head, and suddenly realized something.

"His brother's pathway is complicated?"

"Why."

Xu Qiang glanced at the charred corpse on the ground and sighed helplessly.

The person is dead; it's too late to say anything now.

He was about to turn and leave, but remembering the torch Ye Yan had made, he kindly reminded her, "Zhao Tianchen's sequence is indeed very troublesome."

"What sequence? How complicated is it?"

Ye Yan became interested.

He needs intelligence, intelligence about all the awakened ones in this community.

Xu Qiang paused for two seconds, seemingly considering his words.

"You know our neighborhood has a total of 14 buildings, right?"

"Know."

"Then do you know why almost all the people asking for help in the group are from Building 4?"

Ye Yan was taken aback.

He recalled the group messages he had seen over the past few days.

indeed.

The same few IDs were constantly calling for help, crying out, and cursing.

He hadn't paid attention to the house numbers before, but now that he thinks about it, the room numbers corresponding to those IDs all seem to be in Building 4.

Although people in other buildings also talk occasionally, it's only from time to time, just a few here and there.

So here's the question.

What about the people in the other buildings?

They couldn't all have died, could they?

Or is there no power?

But it's impossible for everyone to be without electricity.

"Because the other buildings all have a 'building owner'."

Xu Qiang's voice was very low.

"Each thread owner is a Sequence Awakener. They control the resources, personnel, and information of their own thread. People in the thread cannot speak casually in the group chat."
