"I'm not sure if the road ahead is passable by car; if not, we'll have to walk!"

The man also picked up a piece of meat, sat down on a stool, and began to eat.

At that moment, an untimely voice suddenly rang out.

"Excuse me..."

"How do I get to the jade mines in Yuze County?"

Someone's here?!

Upon hearing the voice, the man immediately looked over!

Behind him, a group of people were frantically fighting over the stewed meat in the pot.

"It's mine... all mine..."

"Damn it, stop fighting me for it!"

"Get lost!"

Even after hearing the voice, they were undeterred.

The man looked over.

His pupils shrank sharply!

Out of the darkness, a tall and straight figure slowly emerged.

It was a very young man.

Handsome, with a chiseled face and indifferent eyes that seemed to disdain everything.

But that wasn't the most horrifying part.

The most terrifying thing was that in the endless darkness behind the young man,

Two huge, bloodthirsty eyes, like lanterns in the night, were revealed.

A beast over two meters tall, massive in size, resembling a red tiger, gently walked out from behind the young man.

Its limbs were incredibly strong, with ink-jade colored horns on its head, and a fierce and ferocious face, not making a single sound, exuding an overwhelming presence!

The man shuddered all over.

A chill rose from his heart.

He felt an immense sense of fear!

Chen Mo, too, was sizing them up.

An unusual scent reached his nose.

Someone was stewing meat?

The smell was strangely familiar.

Chen Mo frowned.

He looked behind the man.

A group of people were crazily crowding around a large pot, their mouths greasy, continuously tearing and chewing on a large piece of fat meat.

Next to the pot were cleanly stripped skeletons...

The shape was somewhat reminiscent of human skeletons...

Chen Mo quickly understood what was going on.

In the early days of the apocalypse, this was a common occurrence.

The man clearly noticed Chen Mo's gaze.

His body involuntarily shifted to the side.

Trying to block the view of the pot and the stripped bones on the ground.

He stared at Chen Mo with an unfriendly expression and said, "Who are you?"

Chen Mo's expression remained calm, even upon witnessing such a scene of cannibalism.

He was unmoved.

Survival of the fittest.

In this apocalypse, everyone wants to survive.

Even when he was weak, he almost did the same, but he held back in the end.

As long as it doesn't involve him, Chen Mo wouldn't stand on a moral high ground to condemn them.

Otherwise, if he had to manage everything, what would be the difference from a saint?

Chen Mo spoke indifferently.

"I'm going to a place, the mines in Yuze County."

"Take me there."

The man frowned upon hearing this.

They had just escaped from Yuze County with great difficulty.

And now you're telling us to go back?

Although he could sense the danger of the young man before him, with so many of them here, they were not to be trifled with.

At this moment, several people by the pot also noticed Chen Mo.

Their eyes lit up with an intense desire.

They hurriedly stepped forward, standing beside the fierce man.

Their gaze on Chen Mo and the Poverty-stricken beast was not filled with the same wariness as the man's.

Instead, their eyes were filled with ferocity, as if a wild beast was sizing up its prey.

Such a big tiger...

How long could that feed them?

The people exchanged glances, and at that moment, they all had the same thought!

When they heard Chen Mo speak, one of them sneered,

"Go to Yuze County? On what grounds?"

The fierce man didn't speak, obviously sharing the sentiment.

On what grounds?

"On this basis." Chen Mo's expression was indifferent, his right index finger moved slightly.

"Swish!" A steel ball appeared out of nowhere, breaking through the air with a burst of sound!

"Splat!" In just a breath's time,

It blew the head of the speaker to pieces.

The head burst open, brain matter and blood splattered all over everyone's faces!

The power of a fourth-tier Abilities user was no longer what it used to be.

Even a steel ball was undeniably lethal!

This scene shocked everyone to their core!

"Whoosh—"

It was like a slap in the face!

Even their somewhat crazed will was instantly sobered up!

"An Abilities user?!" Someone screamed in shock!

"He's an Abilities user!!!" Several people became agitated and rushed into the RV.

They pulled out various weapons.

Fire axes, hammers, clubs, blood-stained kitchen knives...

"Who the hell are you?!"

The fierce-faced man also felt a chill run down his spine, thoroughly alarmed!

He hadn't even seen when Chen Mo had made his move!

Chen Mo stared at the group opposite him, wary and ready to fight to the death.

He spoke without expression.

"I'm not negotiating with you."

"Either take me to the mines in Yuze County, or die."

"Roar!!" The Poverty-stricken beast beside him suddenly roared!

The deafening sound, like from the abyss, caused several ordinary people opposite to lose their balance, trembling.

They almost couldn't hold onto their weapons.

Strength allows one to do as they please in this apocalypse.

In the apocalypse, human life is as cheap as grass.

This group had strength, and when facing the weak, they could do as they pleased.

And now, their lives were in his hands.

Simply leading the way, that's easy, right?

"Boss, what do we do..."

Their companion's body was still warm, the ground covered in sticky brain matter and blood.

After being roared at by the Poverty-stricken beast, any crazy ideas they had instantly vanished.

They all looked terrifiedly at the fierce man.

After all, he was the only Abilities user here.

The fierce man's forehead was covered in cold sweat.

Having stayed in Yuze County since the apocalypse, he hadn't seen many Abilities users.

So upon seeing Chen Mo, it was hard for him to imagine that there could be such a powerful person in the apocalypse!

The man's eyes flickered, and after much deliberation, he said, "We'll lead the way!"

"You want to go to Yuze County, right?"

Chen Mo nodded slightly.

"We're all jade traders, just came out of there, naturally, we know where Yuze County is."

The man tried to appear as amiable as possible, squeezing out a smile.

While speaking, he slowly inched closer to Chen Mo without changing his expression.

His henchmen's eyes brightened at the sight.

They naturally knew what the man was planning to do.

The young man looked like a student, and although his Abilities were strong, how could he possibly be a match for the boss?

The man approached carefully, his smile growing thicker.

"The road to that mine is very secluded, young brother, you've found the right people to ask..."
