Chapter 104

To be honest, Zhao Hai was feeling a bit uncertain. The last time he saw Chen Luo, he displayed some impressive bullet-dodging skills, but Zhao Hai knew nothing about his other abilities.

And that Jiang Wu, he was no pushover either. The spells he unleashed hardly seemed to harm him. Facing a dozen or so opponents, Zhao Hai felt no pressure at all. Currently, his side had more manpower than Jiang Wus.

If they didnt deal with Jiang Wu in the next couple of days, morale would surely dissipate. Zhao Hai was feeling a bit frustrated. Why were there so many eccentric people, and why did they all seem to cross his path?

Furthermore, Chen Luo didnt bring his formidable dog along this time. Having witnessed the might of the Thunderbolt King, Zhao Hai believed that having that dog around would have provided some much-needed stability.

Zhao Hai comforted himself, thinking that Chen Luo wouldnt come alone without some trump cards up his sleeve. Last time there was a dog, and this time he brought a beautiful cat. Could it be that this seemingly cute cat was also a deadly assassin in disguise?

Chen Luo said, Wheres Jiang Wu? Im in a hurry.

Hearing Chen Luos confident tone, Zhao Hai felt more at ease. He quickly responded, Brother Chen, please wait a moment. Ill gather some people and track down Jiang Wu for you.

Chen Luo nodded, thinking there was no need to face hundreds of enemies alone. With Zhao Hais men serving as cannon fodder, he could bide his time, blend into the crowd, and launch a surprise attack well, not exactly a surprise, more like cleaving Jiang Wu with a single sword strike.

Five minutes later, Zhao Hais team had assembled, comprising almost everyone available. Along the way, they encountered scattered zombies, some of which fled upon seeing the group.

Zhao Hai sighed, This is getting strange. Zombies running away when they see people? It feels like these zombies are becoming more formidable. If we dont clear them out soon, will there be any hope left for humanity?

Chen Luo just smiled faintly and didnt respond.

Jiang Wu lived in another nearby residential complex. At this moment, he was in the best-decorated apartment within the complex. Jiang Wu was holding two attractive young women, occasionally caressing them. On the table were four dishes peanuts, packaged spicy chicken feet, Kung Pao chicken, and twice-cooked pork. There were also a few bottles of chilled beer.

Of course, the Kung Pao chicken and twice-cooked pork werent freshly cooked either, and there was no fresh meat involved. Instead, they were made from preserved ingredients that could last a long time, thanks to generous amounts of preservatives. While it couldnt compare Ma Yus culinary skills, it was still quite satisfying.

Jiang Wu was feeling quite content. Even though the food wasnt top-notch, having two beautiful women in his arms, something he could never have dreamed of before the apocalypse, was a real treat. They were also obedient.

Jiang Wu was a bit chubby with a few acne scars on his face, small eyes, and a rather unremarkable appearance.

Before the apocalypse, Jiang Wu didnt have many hobbies, but his biggest passion was reading novels. Reading so many novels had its benefits. His imaginative mind connected the dots when the apocalypse first happened zombies with crystals in their heads, just like in the novels.

Indeed, reading novels could be quite beneficial.

Seeing others with supernatural abilities while he had none left Jiang Wu feeling disappointed. Physical abilities werent as mystical as elemental powers, and it was perfectly normal not to notice them when he was weak and powerless.

Zhao Hais core brothers were the first to step forward; they knew they had to take charge in situations like this. A few more people hesitated but eventually joined in.

Chen Luo placed the rice into the Bentley that had arrived with them, locked the car door, and quietly followed the others.

They had agreed on this plan before coming. Zhao Hai had to create an opportunity for Chen Luo.

Song Ling gritted his teeth and, along with a few of his comrades, rushed forward. He had a physical ability and figured that Jiang Wu, a fourth-level physical ability user, wouldnt be able to take him down in an instant. They didnt blindly charge but raised their steel clubs in unison, targeting Jiang Wus head.

Jiang Wu sneered, thinking, Is this going to work on me? Perfect, its time for everyone to witness my power.

Chen Luo followed behind, raising his Void Blades. Under the intense sunlight, the blades were nearly invisible.

The sound of thud, thud, thud rang out as the steel pipes struck Jiang Wus head. The pipes bent, but Jiang Wu seemed completely unaffected.

Chen Luo shook his head. Was he this overconfident?

He blended into the crowd and approached, then thrust his sword through the gaps in the crowd towards Jiang Wus waist.

Jiang Wu instinctively lowered his head but saw nothing.

What are you doing, pretending to attack me to claim sausages? he thought.

It wasnt until his upper and lower body separated that Jiang Wu realized

Ignoring the shocked expressions of the others, Chen Luo first searched for any crystals that might be on Jiang Wus body. He went through all the pockets but found nothing. Could it be hidden in the bedroom?

After recovering from their initial shock, Song Ling, who was experienced in such matters, reached for Jiang Wus crotch area.

Watching Song Ling retrieve a crystal from Jiang Wus underwear pocket, Chen Luo was stunned.

So, thats where he hid it.
