The Guide to the End of the World: Four Sentinels Compete for Favor

Ai Wanxin understood immediately.

In the last days, the strong are respected, and the weak can only rely on the strong to survive.

Even though I killed someone in front of them yesterday, they had to bow to me in order to let the rest of the people survive.

Ai Wanxin stopped and looked at Huang Xiaochi's haggard face.

When we first met, he was still a slightly plump young man.

Except that his hair is not very thick, he looks energetic.

The police uniform jacket on his body now seemed to be one size too big, and there was still mud on his neck that had not been wiped off.

My lips were dry and peeling, and my eyes were bloodshot.

In this month, I feel like I have aged ten years.

These two policemen are really helpless.

"Okay, go ahead." Ai Wan thought to himself.

Huang Xiaochi forced a smile under her sharp gaze: "Sister Ai, there are 35 survivors in the community now, not including the 9th and 10th floors of Building A."

"That's quite a lot." Ai Wanxin sighed when he heard that.

Huang Xiaochi bared his teeth and said nothing. This community is not big, with a total of ten buildings, each with 20 households.

Normally, there are about 400 permanent residents, but now there are only 35 left, which is by no means a "small number".

What he didn't know was that the government of the previous life had counted the number of survivors in each base.

There are only about five million survivors in the twelve large bases and hundreds of small and medium-sized bases in the entire Yan Country.

With a population that has dropped sharply from over one billion to five million, the number of survivors in this community is certainly “quite a lot”.

"Then what?" Seeing Huang Xiaochi in a daze, Ai Wanxin had to urge him.

"Supplies... We counted the supplies in the homes of residents whose entire families died, and there aren't many left." Huang Xiaochi said with his head down.

That's right. After a month of flooding, the food reserves of normal families should have almost run out.

Even with airdropped supplies, there wouldn't be much left.

This is also why so many people can't wait to take to the streets.

"So what?" Ai Wanxin asked.

"That's right... Lao Shi and I want to go out to find supplies or seek help. Can you come with us?" Huang Xiaochi said quickly.

Ai Wanxin looked at him inexplicably, "I really admire you two old idiots. You went out when there was a flood and when there was a zombie outbreak."

"Don't you know what's going on outside? How about I send you out now to feel it?"

After saying that, she walked towards the gate.

Huang Xiaochi followed her closely: "Sister Ai, I know the situation outside is very dangerous now, but people will die if they don't eat. We can't hide in the community forever, right?"

"Even you guys, the supplies will eventually run out, and we all have to get out, so just lead us."

Ai Wan thought to herself, my supplies have never been exhausted.

"I do need to go out, but why should I take you with me?"

"Sister Ai, I know you are a good person." Huang Xiaochi racked his brains to try to flatter her, but in the end he could only squeeze out these words.

Ai Wanxin glanced at him speechlessly: "Do you feel guilty?"

Huang Xiaochi said hurriedly: "It's true. I went back yesterday to do some work for Lao Shi. If it weren't for you, Sister Ai, we wouldn't have survived the flood."

"Look, I helped you guys, why are you still blaming me?"

Huang Xiaochi said dejectedly: "Actually, Lao Shi didn't agree with me coming to see you. He wanted to take people out by himself, but I think it's too risky."

"I also know that this is inappropriate. We are the police, and you are a member of the public, and a woman. You should be protected by us..."

"Young police officer, the world has changed. Now there are only strong and weak, living and dead. Your concept is out of date." Ai Wanxin interrupted him.

"I'm not going to take you out."

As they were talking, the two had already arrived at the gate.

There were terrifying roars of zombies coming from outside the door, but there was no sound of the zombies attacking the iron gate yesterday.

Ai Wanxin stretched his arms and legs, borrowed the strength from the wall, and jumped onto the original security booth in one fell swoop.

The security booth was lower than the big iron gate, but it did not prevent her from seeing the scenery outside.

Huang Xiaochi stood on the ground, looking up at her, and called out hesitantly, "Sister Ai..."

Ai Wan said without hesitation: "If you want supplies, exchange them for crystal cores."

Huang Xiaochi was so happy that he almost cried: "Thank you, Sister Ai, I'll go talk to Lao Shi right away!"

After sending Huang Xiaochi away, Ai Wanxin turned and looked outside the door.

I saw that the originally smooth iron gate was now covered with countless arm-thick spikes protruding from the side facing the outside.

The sharp spikes gleamed coldly, giving off a bone-chilling chill in the sunlight.

In the distance, Pei Junlin and Yin Yanhan were each holding one end of the road.

Yin Yanhan held a black-gold long sword in his hand, his broad shoulders stretched out, and as he swung the sword, any zombie that was hit by the blade was instantly broken into two.

Pei Junlin originally used a double-edged sword of ice, but now he turned the short blade into a long one. Wherever the long ice blade passed, the zombies' heads fell off. White frost condensed on the blade edge, and not a drop of rotten blood flowed out.

Ai Wanxin frowned and watched for a while, and found that none of them used their superpowers.

Why are you fighting with zombies?

She was secretly annoyed.

While I was soundly sleeping, these two people were still getting more intense.

No, she absolutely could not be left behind.

Ai Wanxin supported herself on the top of the iron gate, jumped lightly over the spikes, rolled on the ground, and landed nimbly.

Yin Yanhan and Pei Junlin turned around at the same time and saw her.

Pei Junlin flashed to her side and said with a smile: "Baby, are you awake?"

Ai Wan asked angrily, "How long have you been killing?"

Yin Yanhan came back to her side a little later: "Not long, get up early to exercise."

Ai Wanxin knew that he always got up at six o'clock to exercise, and his self-discipline was outrageous.

If they fall behind by two or three hours every day, the gap will be huge over the years.

Ai Wanxin drew out Cixing and gritted her teeth and said, "In terms of the volume, I will never lose."

After saying that, he rushed forward towards the tide of zombies that were staggering towards him.

Yin Yanhan and Pei Junlin were stunned for a moment.

Why would their precious desire to win be in such a strange place?

On the other side, Huang Xiaochi told Shi Bin the news, and they gathered all the survivors in the community in front of the property lobby.

There weren't many people in total, about thirty or so, forming a semicircle in front of the two men.

Shi Bin looked around at everyone and said loudly: "Dear residents of Peacock Bay, my name is Shi Bin, and I am a police officer in this area's police station. This is my police number. The person next to me is my colleague, Huang Xiaochi."

"Some of you may know me. I have been with the institute for fifteen years."

“My colleagues and I were trapped in the community when the flood broke out.”

“I didn’t expect that after surviving the flood, I would encounter zombies right after.”

"To be honest, I am as nervous and frightened as you are, because this is a disaster that mankind has never encountered before."

"But I believe that the country and the government are definitely trying to organize forces and prepare to rescue the people."

"Look, during the flood, didn't the government organize drones to drop relief supplies?"

"So, we must persevere and get through this most difficult period."

"Thanks to the efforts of several neighbors yesterday, all the zombies in the community were cleared out."

"Those are our relatives, not zombies!" someone cried.

Shi Bin paused, sighed, and said, "No one wants something like this to happen, but it is true."

After Shi Bin finished speaking, he waited for a while, and when he saw that the man didn't say anything else, he continued:

"The community is safe for now, but we are not without other crises. As you all know, the municipal administration is completely paralyzed now, with no water or electricity, and everyone must be running out of supplies."

“I don’t know when the government’s rescue will start. Even if it does start, it may not reach our community soon.”

“So we have to save ourselves.”

"How to save ourselves?" someone in the crowd asked loudly.

"I would like to inform everyone that there are currently less than 40 survivors in the community, including me and my colleagues, and 18 of them are young and middle-aged men."

"A neighbor offered to go out and look for supplies for everyone, but the condition was that she had to exchange them for crystal cores."

"What is a crystal core?" asked an uncle.

"The crystal core is a crystal in the zombie's brain." Shi Bin said.

"My suggestion is that the living forces in our community unite and go out together to kill zombies, use crystal cores to exchange for supplies, and survive this difficult period."
