Dozens of people walked towards the south gate of the residential area.

As Sun Qi walked alongside Shen He, his gaze frequently falling upon him. Seeing that Shen He had his hands casually in his pockets and wasn't even carrying a weapon, Sun Qi hesitated, wanting to say something but holding back.

Sun Qi's heart finally settled down a little when Tang Dashan slowly approached, carrying a black shoulder bag, and walked side by side with Shen He.

The second phase of Yulong Bay covers a vast area, and it took the group more than ten minutes to walk to the south gate.

At this moment, the iron gate was tightly closed.

Dozens of zombies huddled together beside the iron gate and the surrounding fence. Dark blue hands reached out haphazardly from the gaps in the fence, scratching and waving towards the security booth on the inside of the community, while low, hoarse roars emanated from their throats.

"Hehehehe—!"

Sensing the approach of a large number of living people, the zombies' roars became increasingly ferocious, and their movements became more agile as they paced and charged restlessly outside the fence.

The aroma of meat from the group of people made them incredibly hungry.

The iron gate and fence were of very good quality; even when dozens of zombies violently charged at them, they didn't budge.

Inside the guard booth, a thin figure rushed out and ran to Sun Qi in a flustered manner.

Sun Qi glanced at the swarming zombies outside the fence, his expression turning serious.

"Why are so many zombies suddenly gathering here? Did you do something in the pavilion that alerted them?"

The man was thin and greasy, with tangled hair. Upon hearing this, he scratched his head anxiously, dandruff falling off in droves.

"I really didn't do anything. I was just keeping watch in the pavilion. There were only two or three at first, and I killed two of them. Then, for some reason, they kept coming from the main road. A few would come every now and then, and that's how it happened!"

The man opened his mouth, causing Shenhe, who was stinking, to take two steps to the side. He then turned and carefully examined the crowd.

It really is the end of the world.

Most of the people's clothes were relatively clean, but their hair was mostly shiny and oily. Only a few girls had hair that didn't get oily and looked relatively clean.

Sun Qi also waved his hand in disgust.

"Stop scratching! It's snowing!"

After he finished speaking, he turned to look at Wang Mian.

"Wang Mian, you take your men and clear out these zombies through the fence first. Kill a few as a demonstration, and then let the women go up and practice, and build up their courage."

The zombies, unable to reach people through the fence, are the perfect opportunity for them to hone their skills.

Wang Mian, who had been staring intently at Tang Dashan, turned his gaze away when he heard Sun Qi's instructions. "You guys come with me. All of you sisters, watch carefully, it'll be your turn to make your move later, so be careful not to get scratched."

After saying that, Wang Mian beckoned several men to walk to the iron fence. Each of them held a 1.5-meter-long spiral steel bar, but the top of the bar was not sharpened.

These men had been following Sun Qi earlier. They were all wearing security guard uniforms and appeared much calmer than the others, clearly indicating that they had dealt with many zombies on a regular basis.

Wang Mian gripped the steel bars tightly with both hands and walked up to a male zombie of similar height to himself.

He slowly raised his hand and aimed one end of the steel bar at the zombie's eye socket. The zombie roared incessantly, its blackened mouth constantly biting forward. Wang Mian focused his attention and aimed for a few seconds!

Seizing the opportunity, he suddenly thrust his hands forward with force, and the steel bar precisely pierced the zombie's eye sockets, stabbing it hard into its brain. The zombie's body stiffened and then slumped to the ground.

"Good! Well done!"

Sun Qi looked excited and couldn't help but raise his hand to applaud.

He turned to look at Shenhe and the other two with a smug expression, only to find that they were standing in a row, just looking at him with indifferent eyes and no reaction.

"Heh... Wang Mian did a good job, hmm."

Sun Qi chuckled awkwardly, slowly stopping his clapping. He put his hands behind his back and nervously picked at his fingers.

Wang Mian successfully dealt with one, instructed the others to follow his method, then turned back to Tang Dashan and nodded, his eyes filled with a hint of provocation.

Tang Dashan rolled his eyes. "Tch!"

Zhang Ran suddenly spoke up casually in a joke.

"Fatty, why don't you just pair up with Wang Mian? I think he cares about you quite a bit."

Tang Dashan looked disgusted and repulsed.

"Hey! Ran-ge, take that back right now, we can still be good friends."

"hehe."

Seeing that Tang Dashan dared not accept the challenge, Wang Mian's eyes flashed with disdain. He then ignored him and focused on leading the others to kill the zombies outside the fence.

Nine men in a row moved swiftly, each taking down four zombies.

A moment later, only seven small female zombies remained outside the fence, lingering and howling.

The men retreated in unison, all turning their gazes toward the women waiting to be led.

The women in this group ranged in age from as young as seventeen to over forty.

At this moment, everyone's face was pale, their expressions were panicked, and they all hesitated and dared not step forward.

Wang Mian frowned slightly and spoke up to comfort and instruct.

"Keep your positions clear and avoid the zombies' waving arms. Just stab their eyes with steel bars. This spot has no hard bones to block the view, making it the easiest and least strenuous way to kill them. You must overcome your fear and timidity; you'll have to get through this sooner or later!"

"Brother Mian, I...I dare not..."

A slightly overweight and unattractive woman chimed in, "I wouldn't dare either. What's the difference between this and murder? Can't you men do it yourselves? Why force us girls to do these things? Isn't helping to move things enough?"

"Exactly, this is not something a woman should do."

A hint of impatience flashed in Sun Qi's eyes, but his tone remained gentle. "I told you all before we assembled that this is for your own good. If you're afraid to even make a move from behind the fence, what will you do if you actually encounter a zombie at close range later?"

The women looked at each other, sweating profusely with nervousness, their hands gripping the steel bars clenching and unclenching repeatedly.

After a brief standoff, the youngest girl in the group gritted her teeth and slowly stepped forward.

Her slender arms trembled slightly, and she bit her lip tightly with her fine teeth, so hard that a white mark appeared around it, and even a faint trace of blood appeared.

She looked up at the female zombie in front of her. The zombie's face was torn to shreds, exposing the dark red skin underneath, making it look extremely terrifying.

The girl was so frightened that she hurriedly turned her head away, not daring to look. But she could only brace herself and look at the zombie, feeling that everyone's eyes were quietly fixed on her.

"ah!"

Finally, she mustered her courage, let out a clear shout, closed her eyes, and thrust the steel bar forward.

With a muffled thud, the steel bar struck the zombie squarely on the forehead. The force was considerable, causing the zombie's head to snap back, and a piece of skin and flesh was torn off its forehead.

"Hehe!"

The zombie slowly straightened its head, its roars becoming increasingly fierce and violent, and its arms suddenly reached out to grab the girl.

"hey-hey."

Tang Dashan couldn't help but chuckle softly. It wasn't mockery, but he was used to his sister-in-law's decisiveness and efficiency, and this was the first time he had seen an ordinary woman like this, so he couldn't help himself.

Wang Mian glared angrily at Tang Dashan.

"What are you laughing at? She's already brave enough to step forward and try! You all ask for large amounts of supplies but hide on the sidelines without contributing, and you even mock the young girl who mustered the courage to push herself. Do you want to..."

Before he could finish his accusation, he met Shenhe's gaze.

That gaze, calm yet carrying an intense sense of oppression, instantly made Wang Mian's whole body stiffen. The words stuck in his throat, and he dared not utter another single one.

Tang Dashan also got angry, feeling that Wang Mian was even more indecisive than a woman, and patted his muscular fist.

"If you dare to say another word, I'll twist your head off and shove it back into your body!"

"snort."

Wang Mian was completely intimidated by Shenhe's aura and could only give a weak but inwardly frightened snort.
