A dead silence, with corpses scattered everywhere—some of zombies, some of humans, shriveled and desiccated as if they had been dead for a long time.
Under the red light, only a red mud-like humanoid creature stood quietly at the original spot, observing the surroundings.
"Why did it come to this..."
Xu Chu's Sweat covered his face, lowered his head, and muttered to himself.
He originally just wanted to help this gathering point that was about to be breached by zombies.
But in the end, he killed all these people along with the zombies.
The pleasure of drawing blood made him infatuated, lose his mind, forget himself, and unconsciously, these people were taken out by him.
These people were very weak, all ordinary people, not a single one could match him. Now he thinks about why Su Changxing is so powerful and already has some answers.
"Brother, I'm sorry, I might not have kept the promise."
Xu Chu's Sweat said to himself, showing a look of guilt on his face, still remembering he once promised Zhang Daxi not to be an enemy of humanity.
"Perhaps dying back then was the right decision... some rivers, once you fall in, you can never come out."
Then, a cruel and fierce look appeared on Xu Chu's Sweat's face, and the flesh and blood on his body continuously intertwined and wriggled, shaping and changing.
He was very clear-minded, knowing what the most important thing to do now was—to become stronger, not to expose himself before he is strong enough.
There must still be some powerful beings among humans, Xu Chu's Sweat is much stronger than before but still can't handle Qin Decang, let alone the gathering of the Security Bureau.

Gradually blocking the exit again.
Most of the others were already exhausted, barely standing on their feet through sheer willpower.
Su Changxing continued to stand at the exit, continuously hacking at zombies, like a tireless machine, capable of handling most of the zombies rushing through the exit on his own.
The zombies outside were no longer as dense, only a few trickling out from the red mist, unable to form a human ladder, so the defense on the second floor wasn't under much pressure.
A young man with a face full of filthy blood and a fresh scratch sat on the ground resting, and said:
"This Su Changxing, Brother Su, is truly remarkable. In ancient times, he would be a one-man army, a War God-like existence."
Geng Wanchun wiped the dirt off his glasses, his eyes deep, affirming:
"That's for sure, even the legendary War God might not be beyond this... With him here, our gathering point is considered safe."
He never would have thought that this seemingly ordinary, hastily established gathering point would have such a powerful figure.
Moreover, even more terrifyingly, this gathering point was activated a second time, and unbelievably, they've already defended it.
Geng Wanchun paused and looked at the people around him, saying, "I've heard that even the Security Bureau's gathering point suffered great losses, with a large gathering nearly destroyed."
Another person continued, "I just saw on the forum that the gathering was attacked by a giant monster; a whole building was toppled."
A man sitting nearby gasped and said, "Is it true, a monster that can topple buildings?"
The person confirmed, "It's true, there are quite a few responses under the post, all survivors, but there are no photos. Just listening to them sounds mysterious."
As a few people chatted, the conversation drifted further and further away, when someone walked over and shouted, "Break time's over, it's our turn to go up."
"Alright, gather up, gather up."
Geng Wanchun stood up and waved, shouting to the people around him.
Anyway, he still had pretty good leadership abilities, so he took on the role of team leader.
Compared to the situation when the zombies broke through before, the entire gathering point seemed to quiet down, even though the defensive battle was still ongoing.
By now, the Extraordinary Zombies had basically disappeared, only ordinary zombies continued to attack the gathering point, making the defense much easier.
Su Changxing waited until reaching his limit before exiting a dormant state, slowly opening his eyes.
In the sky, the red had faded, the Blood Moon remained but dimmed a lot, the horizon glowed with a new light, and the sky was a dim yellow as the hairy-faced giant quietly watched over the earth.
This was dawn, the line between night and day, often signifying hope and vitality.
Zombies outside had completely stopped attacking, only a few sporadic ones continued to crash into the barrier of corpses piled up at the exit.
The exit was full of corpses, hundreds or thousands of them, with nowhere to step but on them; often it was unclear if what was underfoot was a zombie or a human.
Zhu Wenwu stood next to Su Changxing, leaning on his Steel Sword with a numb expression and pale lips, seeing Su Changxing looking at him, smiled and said:
"Brother Su, as you said, I survived in the end."
The number of zombies Zhu Wenwu killed in the gathering point should only be second to Su Changxing.
Since becoming an Extraordinary, he also had a superhuman endurance, fighting with Su Changxing until dawn, though his stamina was depleted.
Su Changxing thought for a moment and said, "Hmm, I said if you didn't die, you should have survived."
"Huh?"
Zhu Wenwu was momentarily stunned and said, "I guess it's the same thing."
Su Changxing nodded and said, "It's about the same. We probably don't need to defend here anymore, now come with me."
Zhu Wenwu didn't ask much, following behind Su Changxing, and said, "That Xiaobo was taken into the jungle by those monkeys, is that okay?"
Su Changxing walked ahead, took out a bottle of water, took a large gulp, and said:
"It should be fine, it inherently has the features of a zombie, its injuries aren't as severe as they appear, but its recovery ability is still questionable... for now, it seems that if zombie-type creatures want to get stronger, life traits still tend to lean towards normal life."
Zhu Wenwu took the water handed by Su Changxing, thought for a moment, and said, "It seems so; the difference between the Screamer and these zombies is quite big, more like a ferocious beast, and its intelligence doesn't seem low."
Su Changxing turned his head to look at him, smiling, "Thinking about it this way, should these zombies evolve to the extreme, they might become humans again, but much stronger, like taking a roundabout route but maybe not."
Zhu Wenwu was very thirsty, gulping down more than half the water, and said, "This conforms with the development law of things, philosophically speaking, this is called spiraling upward, also known as advancing in a circuitous manner."
He paused for a moment and then said, "Yes, from another perspective, we are considered the old things in this New World, seemingly meant to be eliminated."
