Chen Mo sat in the back of a large truck with a group of men.

The atmosphere inside the truck was solemn and silent, with five or six men with gloomy faces sitting there, holding iron rods and some crude weapons.

They looked at Chen Mo with unfriendly expressions.

The surroundings were somewhat dim, and the scene was tense.

Chen Mo sat in a random position, closing his eyes and resting without speaking.

According to Liao Ruyu, he had to stay here and not go out before heading to Huabei City.

Because at the location of the highway exit, there were many people with firearms guarding it.

Occasionally, there were sounds of the truck bumping and knocking.

"Hmph." The man from before snorted and approached with some displeasure.

"Kid, I don't know what you said to the miss, but with your weak body, if you join our Long Gang, don't get eaten by those zombies."

The man's name was Ge Huozhu, the leader here.

And the men sitting here were all workers in the steel plant of Long Gang Group.

They worked in the steel plant all year round, doing dirty and tiring work.

This made their physical fitness far superior to ordinary people, with excellent endurance and strength.

Naturally, those who could travel with Liao Ruyu were carefully selected.

Chen Mo still had his eyes closed and did not speak.

At this time, a middle-aged man with a kind face opposite him smiled bitterly and said, "Alright, Old Ge, he's just a kid, why are you so vigilant?"

"Now it's the end of the world, there are only men and women, no children!" Ge Huozhu said in a deep voice.

"I don't know why the miss wants him to go back with us."

"Why not just leave him at the station, like those survivors, not allowed to pass without collecting a certain amount of crystal cores."

"What are you saying!" With this remark, several men present were somewhat displeased.

Compared to Feng Tianyou, these people were obviously more conscientious.

"Old Ge, are you out of your mind? Blocking people's way is a heinous act, and it's a sin to go to hell after death!"

"Whoever wants to do it, I don't want to! It's Feng Tianyou who enjoys it, now he's getting his retribution, right?"

"Well, we have no choice..."

"People die every day..."

"This life, who knows when it will end..."

Ge Huozhu seemed to feel that he had misspoken and said in a deep voice, "I didn't mean it!"

"That group of bastards, turning the contradictions of the survivors from outside against our Long Gang Group, is really despicable!"

Everyone didn't say much more, their faces were very ugly.

After all, people like Feng Tianyou were in the minority.

Before the end of the world, everyone here was a worker and knew that life was not easy.

Chen Mo slowly opened his eyes.

He glanced at the group of burly men.

And said, "The people from Long Gang are all very unwilling to intercept the survivors from outside?"

Ge Huozhu sneered, "Do you think we are all beasts like Feng Tianyou?"

"You're lucky, since the miss is willing to take you in, after arriving in Huabei City, just stay honestly at Long Gang."

Chen Mo didn't say much more.

The journey was silent.

Several trucks traveled on the somewhat dilapidated highway for a while.

There were intermittent stops along the way, but fortunately, there were no accidents.

After about half an hour or so.

The entire car swayed and stopped.

From outside, there suddenly came the sound of footsteps and the sound of guns "clicking".

"Stop."

Immediately after, Liao Ruyu's voice sounded.

"We are from Long Gang Group."

"How many people are here today?"

"Fifteen people."

"Names, identity information."

"They are all here."

"Let the people in the car come out."

..."

There was no movement outside, and no one knew what Liao Ruyu had done.

Then the voice sounded again.

"Alright, you can go now."

"The higher-ups told us to settle those survivors."

"After the safe zone is established, release them, understand?"

"Go!"

"Vroom vroom—" The sound of the engine starting.

The car started to sway and move forward again.

After a while, the rear door was pushed open with a "creak".

Revealing the light.

Chen Mo looked outside, and the whole view became clear.

It was a pile of ruins, with some open space around, and the ground was covered with bloodstains and the bodies of zombies.

We are "pawread.com", find us on google.

The smell of blood and decay hit them.

The most familiar smell of the end of the world...

The sexy figure of Liao Ruyu smiled under the car and said, "Alright, we've arrived in Huabei City."

"Come out."

Chen Mo and a group of men got out of the car.

Looking around, there were several cars parked on the side of the road.

Liao Ruyu smiled lightly and said, "Come out and get some fresh air."

Chen Mo nodded slightly, and a group of men held their weapons, paying extremely vigilant attention to the surrounding movements.

Although this area had been cleared many times.Occasionally, wandering zombies would still appear in this area.

So everyone was on high alert.

Liao Ruyu stretched lazily, her beautiful eyes smiling as she said to Chen Mo.

"We've arrived at your long-awaited Huabei City."

"Our Long Gang Group base is located about thirty kilometers from here.

The road ahead, although we've traveled it countless times, still occasionally has some zombies."

"With your strength, helping out shouldn't be a problem, right?" Saying this, Liao Ruyu stuck out her tongue playfully.

Chen Mo nodded.

"I can."

"But I want those Crystal Cores."

Liao Ruyu giggled: "Don't worry about that."

"As long as you help us at Long Gang take care of that strange crocodile, we do have some Crystal Cores."

"And you will be given a corresponding reward."

"It's like being a bounty hunter in the movies, cool, isn't it?"

Chen Mo responded indifferently.

"Help me find the person, and we can talk about everything else."

"Don't worry, I'll definitely take care of your matter," Liao Ruyu patted her chest, assuring him.

At this moment, Ge Huozhu also came over and asked.

"Miss, did those guys ask for stuff again?"

Liao Ruyu glanced at him, her pretty face calm as she replied.

"Mhm, gave them a bit."

Ge Huozhu was instantly furious, and even the faces of the men beside him looked displeased.

"Damn it! These guys really have no shame!"

"They clearly have food in the military district, yet they're always coveting what little we have at Long Gang."

"Miss, this isn't the first or second time this has happened. Next time, let's see what happens if we don't give them anything!"

Hearing this, Chen Mo also looked at her curiously.

"You gave them food?"

"People from the military district are lacking this too?"

Liao Ruyu chuckled, appearing quite open-minded.

She spoke without concern.

"Although they distribute food, how much actually reaches those people after all the layers of allocation?"

"If you don't give them some benefits, how would you have gotten in?"

"Let's not talk about this, let's go."
