In the apocalypse, my weapons can evolve infinitely.
Chapter 12 "You Must Stay and Help Us"
Although Jiang Xun acted with caution,
However, after the mysterious deaths of those zombies, with the appearance of Jiang Xun, the survivors on the 6th floor immediately turned their attention to him.
Just as Jiang Xun walked around the dead zombies, preparing to check the situation on this floor,
A door suddenly opened.
A girl leaned halfway out and waved in Jiang Xun's direction, then looked around nervously, as if on guard against zombies that might appear at any moment.
When Jiang Xun saw the other person waving at him, his expression instantly turned strange.
However, he didn't enter the other party's house as they had requested. He only took a few steps forward before stopping, given the precedent set by the Tang family.
He dared not have high expectations for human nature.
"Excuse me, may I ask...?"
Jiang Xun asked politely, but he was suddenly interrupted by the girl opposite him as soon as he opened his mouth.
"Did you kill the zombies in the hallway? Were you sent by the government? What's the situation outside now?"
The girl bombarded Jiang Xun with three questions in a row.
This left Jiang Xun unsure how to respond.
His gaze bypassed the girl and looked into the room behind her. The girl wasn't alone in the room at that moment.
There were elderly people, men, women, and children.
There must have been at least 6 or 7 people involved.
So many people? How can they live in one room for so long?
Seeing this, Jiang Xun looked at the girl in front of him with curiosity again. If that was the case, how much supplies did this girl hoard before the apocalypse?
However, how much supplies one hoards is no longer of much concern. With so many people consuming them, even if one hoards a large amount, it won't make a difference.
There probably won't be much left.
Seeing this, Jiang Xun wanted to turn around and leave, but the girl saw that Jiang Xun wanted to leave and reached out and grabbed him first.
"Hey, hey, what are you doing? You can't leave. There are nine lives in this house. As a government employee, you can't just stand by and watch them die."
Seeing the girl's actions, Jiang Xun frowned slightly.
"Let go of me. I'm not a government employee; I'm just a resident of this building."
Jiang Xun twisted his wrist, trying to break free from the girl in front of him.
But to everyone's surprise, the girl not only didn't let go, but instead raised her other hand and grabbed Jiang Xun tightly.
"Even if you're not a government employee, I saw you kill the zombie just now. Since you're also a resident of this apartment building, and given the situation, you should do your part to protect the vulnerable."
The girl felt as if she were radiating a divine light when she said those words.
However, these words struck Jiang Xun as extremely inexplicable.
What the hell? What do you mean I should protect you just because I have the ability? What kind of logic is that?
Seeing this, Jiang Xun wanted to leave immediately. He didn't understand the girl's thought process and didn't want to continue entangled with her. So he used even more strength in his arms, trying to break free from her control in an instant.
However, it was clear that the girl had no intention of letting Jiang Xun off the hook.
Her eyes were firm and resolute, as if she wanted to move the person in front of her with her actions.
Although Jiang Xun now possessed weapons, he was still just an ordinary person at this moment.
So, faced with the girl's full-force grabbing and pulling, he was unable to break free for a moment.
The middle-aged man inside the girl's room flashed a fierce light in his eyes after seeing this scene.
"Hey, young man, let's talk this out. Isn't this a bit too much for a girl?"
As the middle-aged man spoke, he rolled up his sleeves and walked in the direction he was in.
He was accompanied by two other men, both of whom were young men in their twenties.
Seeing this, Jiang Xun felt even more alarmed. He hadn't expected that just because he killed a few zombies, he would be so persistently clung to by this group of scoundrels.
The two sides weren't far apart, only 5-6 meters from inside to outside. If the three men on the other side rushed at them...
Even I myself won't be able to have a peaceful end then.
Upon seeing this, Jiang Xun's eyes narrowed, and with a fierce determination, he raised his hand and thrust it sharply into the doorway.
A massive wall appeared instantly, expanding to the left and right, completely blocking the doorway from inside the house.
This sudden scene caught everyone off guard, whether it was the girl outside the door or the people inside.
They were all stunned into silence by the incredible skill before them.
Jiang Xun saw that the girl was also stunned in place, and knew that this was his chance.
Without hesitation, he stepped back and withdrew.
Although the girl was still holding onto Jiang Xun's coat, Jiang Xun simply took it off and abandoned it.
Without pausing, Jiang Xun, having shed his skin like a cicada, took off running towards the stairwell.
The commotion here is too great; zombies will likely swarm in soon.
Therefore, he needed to escape in advance, fleeing to the 7th floor.
"What...what did you do? Stop right there, don't run away."
Seeing Jiang Xun immediately turn and run towards the stairwell, the girl quickly came to her senses and chased after him.
"Since you're so capable, you should stay and help us. You can't leave."
Although the girl was several breaths behind Jiang Xun, she quickly caught up with him by running at full speed.
Jiang Xun, who had already reached the stairwell, sensed the girl approaching from behind.
His heart tightened, and his eyes finally turned icy cold.
Indeed, people teaching people are like water off a duck's back; but events teaching people are like water flowing in a pond.
Although Jiang Xun used to read apocalyptic novels, he was very curious about why the male protagonists in those novels could be so decisive and ruthless in killing people when the apocalypse came.
Now that they are in each other's shoes, he finally understands the reason.
Often it's not that they are decisive in killing, but that if they hesitate and waver, they will be dragged down and killed by the other party.
Jiang Xun stopped, turned around, and fired the bullets from his slingshot.
With a "thud," a pebble flew out and struck the girl's thigh.
The girl cried out in pain and collapsed to the ground.
"How could you do this? You're killing someone! You..."
Jiang Xun ignored what the other person was saying, because at that moment, three zombies were still sticking out of the stairwell on the 7th floor, preparing to walk towards the 6th floor.
Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh, swoosh
Jiang Xun kept firing steel nails, one after another, which hit the zombies on the 7th floor.
Now, including the six zombie corpses on the 6th floor and the three zombie corpses on the 7th floor, there are a total of nine zombie corpses on site.
Once the zombie army arrives, this place will surely become a feast once again.
The key issue is that he can't risk going down to the house to take refuge now, as that would easily lead to a head-on encounter with the zombie army coming from below.
Even if you have excellent shooting skills, it will be difficult to escape from that massive army of zombies.
So now all that's left for me is one path: to keep moving upwards.
Jiang Xun looked up at the floors above.
Now he had to take a gamble. If he could find an empty room to use as shelter before the zombie horde surged in, then he would still have a sliver of hope.
If you can't find it...
