Doomsday police, please show your god/demon ID card.

Tang Long moved his shoulders, and a slight cracking sound came from his joints.

He then got out of bed and walked to Su Yan's side.

"Hmm, much better."

"Let me see." Su Yan stood up, reached out and touched his forehead, feeling a slightly cool touch on her fingertips.

"Good, the fever has finally gone down. You slept for a whole day and night."

She withdrew her hand, picked up the bowl next to her, filled it halfway with porridge, and handed it over.

"I shouldn't have touched these supplies, but you're sick and need food to replenish your strength."

"I can only cook some rice porridge for now, so you can eat it as soon as you wake up."

"Don't worry, I didn't eat any food."

Tang Long took the bowl, the warmth spreading from the bowl's surface to his palm.

The rice was cooked until very soft, melting in your mouth, and a warm current slid down your esophagus into your stomach, dispelling the chill in your body.

Tang Long finished the porridge in his bowl and looked at Su Yan.

"Thanks."

Su Yan shook her head: "You're welcome. After all, you took me in, so this is only right."

She paused.

"To be honest, I was scared to death last night."

"I was so afraid you'd suddenly turn into a zombie, but it turns out you were right, and nothing happened to you."

"That's strange, how did you do that?" she asked curiously.

Tang Long shook his head: "I don't know either."

Su Yan looked at Tang Long and sighed with regret.

"Ah~ It's a pity we don't have any instruments! If only we could figure out what's going on with you."

Tang Long's lips twitched; he had a feeling that there was something wrong with the woman's gaze.

It was as if they wanted to strip him naked.

He turned his head slightly and pointed to the pot of hot porridge: "By the way, you can have some too."

Su Yan's eyes lit up, and she subconsciously licked her lips.

Are you sure?

Tang Long smiled wryly and said, "Of course, you are the doctor at the outpost, I wouldn't stoop to deducting from your salary in this regard."

Although he was in a deep sleep all night, he could vaguely sense that someone was taking care of him.

For example, the damp cloth covering one's head when waking up is good proof.

"Okay! Then I won't be polite." Su Yan didn't hesitate any longer, filled a bowl for herself, and drank it in big gulps.

It's clear she was really hungry; it's not easy for her to have endured this long.

Tang Long nodded inwardly and casually asked, "By the way! You remember you said before that you had companions?"

Su Yan paused in her packing.

"Um."

"That's right, there's also a Dr. Zhang, two nurses, and a policeman there."

"Police?" Tang Long's eyes flickered.

"Yes." Su Yan's tone carried a hint of respect.

"His name is Wang Hu, and he is...he is Officer Li's comrade-in-arms."

"Even after the apocalypse, it was always the two of them who protected our group."

Tang Long fell silent.

A police officer who, even in the apocalypse, is willing to uphold his duty and protect civilians.

There were also doctors and nurses.

These people are a valuable asset.

He never considered going it alone.

His police career taught him a very simple truth: unity is strength.

Sticking together for warmth and support is far more likely to lead to longevity than being a lone hero.

Moreover, the newly unlocked staffing system requires more people to join.

He looked at Su Yan, his voice without the slightest hesitation.

"Let's go save them."

Su Yan's expression changed.

"But the Wild Wolf Gang members are very likely still nearby."

"Then we should go even more." Tang Long's tone was very calm.

After saying that, he turned and walked towards the weapons cabinet in the corner.

The system panel displays an order point count of seventy-three.

"System, exchange for four Type 92 pistol magazines."

[Confirm the use of 12 Order Points to exchange for 4 Type 92 pistol magazines?]

"confirm."

Order points decreased, and the lock on the weapons cabinet slightly popped open.

Tang Long opened the cabinet door and took out four magazines filled with bullets.

Then he picked up the service weapon that had been found on the police officer in the clothing store earlier, which was in his backpack.

He skillfully loaded a magazine into the gun, then handed it and another spare magazine to Su Yan.

"Take this."

Su Yan stared at the gun in his hand, her body stiffening for a moment.

"I..."

"Do you know how to use it?" Tang Long asked.

Su Yan bit her lip and shook her head: "No."

"It's very simple, I'll teach you once." Tang Long demonstrated several times until the other person understood, and then added a sentence.

"Release the safety, aim carefully, and then fire."

"Don't waste bullets."

"Understood." Su Yan took a deep breath and gripped the gun tightly in her hand.

Tang Long nodded and checked his equipment.

"Let's go."

He walked to the metal door and tapped the central control screen.

"Open the door."

The heavy alloy gate slid open to both sides, and thick, grayish-white fog rolled in from outside.

......

Twenty minutes later.

The streets are shrouded in thick fog.

Boom!

Two gunshots rang out in the silent street.

puff~

Two zombies fell to the ground.

Two figures, a man and a woman, could be vaguely seen in the mist.

"We're almost there." Su Yan looked at the zombies on the ground, swallowed hard, and then pointed to the left side of the street: "About two more streets."

Tang Long didn't say anything, he just nodded and walked ahead.

His steps were light and silent, like a cheetah moving through the ruins of a city.

Whether it was his imagination or not, after the high fever subsided, his five senses became more acute than before.

Not only could you hear the sound of water droplets condensing and dripping in the mist, but you could also smell a faint, almost imperceptible, stench of blood in the air, in addition to the stench of decay.

"Do you know how many people are in the Wild Wolf Gang?" Tang Long asked.

"I don't know," Su Yan replied softly, following behind him.

"They took over a nearby supermarket and attracted a lot of people."

"Wang Hu once said that they had at least thirty men who could carry weapons."

Tang Long paused for a moment.

Thirty people.

This is already a considerable armed force.

"Wang Hu, is he a good fighter?" Tang Long asked curiously.

"Mmm." Su Yan's tone carried a hint of relief.

"Brother Wang used to be an armed police officer. Officer Li said he was the team's fighting champion."

"It's because of him that we've held on for so long."

"What weapon did he use?"

"A pistol and a fire axe."

Tang Long frowned.

As they were talking, they had already reached the first street corner.

Several zombies swayed in the mist. Hearing footsteps, they sluggishly turned their heads, making hoarse sounds in their throats, and stiffly approached.

Tang Long did not stop, and raised his hand to hold up his gun.

boom!

The zombie at the front had its head explode and fell straight down.

Instead of continuing to fire, he drew the police bayonet from his waist and charged towards the remaining two zombies.

A flash of light.

The bayonet pierced precisely into the eye socket of a zombie, shattering its brainstem.

He drew his bayonet, parried with a backhand stroke, and blocked another zombie's outstretched arm. He then lowered his body and thrust the bayonet upwards, piercing its jaw.

The whole process took less than three seconds, clean and efficient.

Kill a regular zombie and gain +1 Order Point.
