"Let me ask you one last question. Are there any others like you doing this nearby?"
"This, this..."
Hearing the last question, Xu Mingyuan wondered how to answer.
"Hm? Not saying?" Wang Yu raised his right hand, opened his palm towards Xu Mingyuan, and then slowly clenched it into a claw.
Xu Mingyuan immediately felt difficulty breathing, his neck seeming to be gripped and squeezed by an invisible force.
"Uh... I, I'll say... uh..."
He quickly tried to speak, asking Wang Yu to stop, otherwise he would really suffocate!
Wang Yu lowered his hand, and Xu Mingyuan felt relieved. After coughing twice, he started to breathe heavily.
"So terrifying, what kind of ghost is this person..."
He couldn't understand why Wang Yu had such a terrifying ability; it was too unscientific!
"Cough, cough..."
"I don't know about farther away, but there are no others around here doing this, because we clear out some of the zombies around here every day and haven't seen any other survivors."
After a moment of thought, Xu Mingyuan decided to tell the truth.
If he made up a story and lied to Wang Yu, then he would truly have no hope of survival, and whether he could fool Wang Yu was another matter.
If the other party saw through his lie, he would surely die on the spot!
Wang Yu nodded, looked out the window, and a hint of remembrance appeared in his eyes.
"Luoxue, kill him."
Huh???
Chen Luoxue's beautiful eyes widened slightly, looking a bit呆萌.
Xu Mingyuan's eyes bulged even wider, and he quickly shouted: "Big Brother! I told you everything! And everything I said was the truth. Don't kill me, my life is yours from now on!"
"I..."
"Noisy!"
Wang Yu gave a cold glance, and Xu Mingyuan's mouth was immediately sealed by his ability, only able to make muffled sounds.
Wang Yu then turned his gaze back to Chen Luoxue, "What are you waiting for? Didn't you say you would listen to me about everything?"
"I..."
Wang Yu was a little displeased. You, an assassin who was destined to awaken dark abilities, were, to put it bluntly, someone who specialized in killing.
Now, you're being hesitant about killing a scumbag, what kind of behavior is that?
Chen Luoxue's expression was hesitant. She didn't know why Wang Yu wanted her to kill this burly man.
Wang Yu himself had come for revenge, yet now he wanted her to do the deed. She had no enmity with this person and really couldn't bring herself to do it.
After all, she hadn't killed anyone alive yet.
She looked up and met Wang Yu's slightly cold gaze.
This was the first time Chen Luoxue had seen Wang Yu look at her like this. This kind of gaze made her a little uncomfortable, and there was an overbearingness that she couldn't refuse.
After a moment of thought.
She silently picked up a cleaver from the ground and walked towards Xu Mingyuan.
Xu Mingyuan was immediately terrified and struggled desperately, making muffled noises.
Unfortunately, it was useless; he still couldn't move at all.
Chen Luoxue walked up to Xu Mingyuan and looked at the burly man she had met for the first time.
He was clearly so strong, about two or three times her size.
But now, he couldn't move, only whimpering, his eyes pleading, like a lamb waiting to be slaughtered.
This appearance was very inconsistent with his physique and his fierce, scarred face.
But this appearance was very likely to be found on the women who were captured by them for amusement.
Thinking of this, Chen Luoxue tightened her grip on the handle of the knife, slowly raised it, paused for two seconds in the air, and then quickly swung it down.
Perhaps influenced by Wang Yu's killing methods, her blow directly severed Xu Mingyuan's neck.
His head fell to the ground, his eyes still wide open, his face frozen in the terror of death.
Perhaps Xu Mingyuan had thought of many ways to die in his life: old age, illness, a car accident, being killed by past enemies, or being eaten by the zombies outside.
But he definitely wouldn't have expected to die like this!
He couldn't see anything, yet his body couldn't move, and he couldn't even speak.
He could only watch helplessly as a woman he didn't know at all decapitated him.
The feeling of watching the blade fall was even more brutal than an ancient executioner's beheading!
After killing Xu Mingyuan, Chen Luoxue fell silent.
The knife in her hand dropped to the ground with a clang, and her hand was still trembling slightly.
Wang Yu didn't comfort her. It was really hard to say anything about this kind of thing.
Past grievances, if spoken, no one would believe them.
It was better to remain indifferent, which would make Chen Luoxue think he was overbearing and strong, and would make her obey him more in the future.
Wang Yu began to tour the room.
In fact, there was nothing peculiar about it; it was just a typical three-bedroom apartment.
Not only this room, but the adjacent ones and most of the rooms in this building were like this.
Except for the first floor.
The first floor was a supermarket, about two hundred square meters.
Xu Mingyuan's group was very lucky to be living directly above this supermarket.
After the apocalypse broke out, they occupied the entire supermarket.
Food and water were not a problem, but they were used to living a leisurely life. After a few days, they started to have ideas about the women.
There weren't many good-looking women among the survivors in this building, so they set up traps on the roadside to rob survivors fleeing to Haichen Garden.
And it must be said, this method actually worked, or rather, the attraction of Haichen Garden was really great!
In the past few days, several waves of survivors had wanted to go there for refuge.
It was a pity that they encountered obstacles like Xu Mingyuan halfway there. The men all met a tragic end, and the women, although mostly survived, could not escape the fate of being toys.
"Let's go and check out the next room."
Wang Yu had checked several rooms and found nothing.
He guessed that those women were either locked in the adjacent room or directly locked in the supermarket downstairs.
Chen Luoxue followed Wang Yu in silence. Although she felt Xu Mingyuan deserved to die, she couldn't help but think of Xu Mingyuan's expression before he died.
This was a normal psychological reaction, possibly because genes tried to prevent intraspecific conflict.
Under normal circumstances, killing people would definitely have a psychological burden. Ordinary people would have an adaptation period like Chen Luoxue, which was unavoidable.
Even with all the preparation beforehand and self-suggestion afterward, it was useless.
In nature, genes had another famous method to avoid intraspecific conflict, which was prions.
Cannibalism easily led to prion infection. Once infected with this virus, death was not far away.
Breaking open the door to the adjacent room, Wang Yu indeed found six women inside.
Among them, there was also a very attractive middle-aged woman.
She looked to be in her thirties, plump, with a voluptuous figure, and her temperament was significantly different from the other women, clearly a noble lady.
Among these women, only this noble lady was in better mental condition; the others looked somewhat worn out.
It was likely that these guys, who were not good people even before the apocalypse, were now letting loose.
Wang Yu saw some small props in some rooms, such as ropes, whips, candles, stockings, and the like.
He didn't know where they got them.
These women were housed two per room. When Wang Yu and Chen Luoxue entered, they were still lying in bed, as if they were not worried at all about whether they were other bad guys or zombies.
Perhaps, they no longer cared much about life or death. Their current survival and lack of breakdown were merely supported by biological instinct.
