Chapter 392: 221 One Minute (First Update)

At the gate, originally ten people remained behind to watch over Fang Yuxin and the others, preventing them from escaping. They were all men of Wang Dali, and when Brother Gui appeared with his group, their expressions changed, panic mixed with intense anger.

In their eyes, Fang Yuxin and the others were like fattened sheep ready for slaughter, the ones they had encountered first! But now with Brother Gui’s arrival, it was clear he was there to snatch their credit and rewards! And to make matters worse, their mainstay, Wang Dali, was absent, none of these men had superpowers, they were at a disadvantage in terms of power, and even more so in numbers, a full thirty people fewer than the other side!

The disparity between the two sides was too obvious; they stood no chance against Brother Gui. So when faced with the sudden appearance of Brother Gui, most could only seethe in silence.

Only one person, fawningly said, "Brother Gui, what brings you here? Isn’t it Brother Wang’s turn to guard the gate today?"

Brother Gui glanced indifferently at the speaker, and then someone by his side rudely pointed at the speaker and scolded, "Is it your place to care about what Brother Gui wants to do? Who do you think you are? Brother Wang abandoned his post, and Brother Gui is here to take charge, what’s wrong with that? Don’t forget what Brother Feng said, it’s a special time now, we must be careful and cautious!"

This settlement was no more than a small gathering place with only 2,300 people, most of whom were Ordinary People. There were very few superpower users, the strongest being Brother Feng and the ten experts by his side.

Because of their strength and the oppressive policies they implemented in the settlement, the people there almost obeyed their every command—Brother Feng had become almost a godlike figure in the eyes of most.

No one dared disobey his words.

They had been fortunate here, with few zombies coming their way, most of which had been dealt with by Brother Feng and the ten experts. The zombies that occasionally appeared around the area were few, allowing them a respite to live relatively securely.

Every day in the settlement, there were people proclaiming the horrors of the zombies and the harshness of the outside world, so much so that the settlement’s inhabitants dared not venture out, remaining obediently inside, under the domineering rule of Brother Feng and the others.

Lately, however, zombies had been appearing more and more often, increasingly frequent, and Brother Feng had issued an order to deploy many patrol teams around the settlement. As soon as zombies were detected, they were to deal with them directly if possible, or send smoke signals to alert the community if not.

At the same time, Brother Feng took the defense of the Safe Zone’s gate very seriously, arranging for people to guard it in shifts, and demanding that no one abandon their post without permission.

What Wang Dali did was already a violation. Such matters, as long as unreported and not causing trouble, would naturally be overlooked by those in charge. Unfortunately for Wang Dali, he had the bad luck of having a traitor among his men, who informed Brother Gui of his actions.

Brother Gui was a minor leader in the settlement, his status slightly higher than that of Wang Dali. He had more power than Wang Dali, and commanded more men.

No one had expected him to come and steal credit and benefits at this time, and his men even spoke such words.

Upon hearing this, the ten subordinates of Wang Dali became anxious, if this were to reach those above, not only would Wang Dali not end well, but they also would suffer from the fallout!

The words spoken were clearly under Brother Gui’s direction, and they were not foolish enough to believe such words were simply out of initiative!

The ten men did not dare respond rashly, and after a moment, the one who had spoken earlier said stiffly, "Brother Gui, please don’t misunderstand, Brother Wang hasn’t abandoned his post, it’s just... it’s just a nature’s call, he’ll be back soon!"

Brother Gui said nothing, while the people by his side looked at the ten subordinates left by Wang Dali with disdain, their eyes as if gazing at idiots.

The ten could only look desperately at the gate, wishing Wang Dali would appear quickly and rescue them from dire straits. Sadly, they had no idea that Wang Dali himself was in deep trouble right now, and had no time to help them!

Brother Gui ignored them and instead took a few steps forward with a smile, saying to the people in the vehicle, "Listen up in the car, my patience is limited. If you want to survive, come out obediently. I’m only giving you one minute, anyone who doesn’t come out after a minute, don’t blame us for not being polite."

As if to prove his point, as soon as his words fell, the people around him immediately revealed their weapons, glaring menacingly at the three vehicles, waiting for the people inside to emerge.
