"what!--"

Ripples appeared in the water, and Tumenzhen suddenly screamed, holding onto the shore with his hands and feet, and said to them, "There is something under the water! Save me!"

Shi Feng hurriedly stepped forward, grabbed Tumenzhen's arm, pulled him out of the water with force, held him in front of him to protect him, and subconsciously took a few steps back.

Jian Tingzhi exclaimed: "Your Highness, your legs!"

Tumenzhen's face was already pale from the pain, and when he looked down, he fainted from fright.

Both of his feet were bitten off by the fish monster, leaving only his bloody ankles.

Shi Feng hurriedly laid him flat on the ground, undressed him, pressed a button on his chest, and the skin on his chest parted, revealing the palm-sized instrument stored in his chest.

Cell regenerator.

It can stimulate human cell regeneration, repair broken limbs, or assist in the generation of missing new organs after organ necrosis and removal. It is expensive and not affordable for ordinary interstellar residents.

He urgently attached the cell regenerator to Tumenzhen's leg, pressed the button, and adjusted the pain relief function and regeneration rate to the maximum.

The wound on Tumenzhen's leg healed quickly, and the broken limb was visibly regenerating. However, he fainted from the pain and fear, and it was unlikely that he would wake up in a short period of time.

Lan Jue watched coldly from the side.

If you dare to let your guard down where monsters roam, you deserve to suffer.

Shi Feng covered Tumen Zhen with clothes and jumped into the river himself. The bionic man does not need to breathe and can fight in water.

As a top-level combat android provided by the royal family, his combat ability was much higher than that of military academy students like Jian Tingzhi. In just half a minute, he had cleared all the fish monsters at the bottom of the river.

He emerged from the water among the dead fish, raised his body temperature to dry out the excess moisture on the surface, tied Tumenzhen, whose feet had been repaired, behind his back with clothes, and looked at Lan Jue and the others: "We can cross the river now."

Qiansui exclaimed: "With such fighting ability, it is a waste of talent to condescend to be the bodyguard of a brainless prince."

Swimming is one of the compulsory courses in military academies.

Several people avoided the area of ​​dead fish, stepped into the water, and successfully swam to the other side.

They didn't dare to delay and ran towards the nearest city.

To some extent, the city is a safe house. Cities are divided into different levels, and corresponding entry thresholds are set.

For example, what is in front of Lan Jue and his group is an E-class city.

The quota for residence is only a few thousand people, and each person needs to kill ten people, or someone is willing to transfer the number of kills, before they can enter.

The quota is not set in stone.

Plants cannot be grown or edible animals can be raised in the city, so people must go out of the city to find supplies for survival. There are dangers everywhere outside the city, and many people never return.

The masked man doesn't seem to intend to let them live there peacefully. The city's quota is random and will change every morning, and then the residents who exceed the quota will be randomly cleared out.

Random quotas are usually compressed most of the time, and rarely expanded. As a result, dozens of people die every day, so the quotas are always changing.

There is another way to get a spot, which is to kill the original residents and replace them.

Lan Jue and others are military academy students. People who join the army always have a sense of mission to defend their country. They cannot kill citizens of the empire for their own selfish reasons.

Shi Feng didn't have so many concerns. He held up a knife and was about to kill all the people at the city gate who were preparing to go out to explore, so that he could enter the city. Jian Tingzhi and Lan Jue discovered his intention and worked together to stop him.

"Get out of the way! They are just common people. It is their honor to die for you!"

Lan Jue shouted, "Common people also have the right to survive! You can't kill innocent people for Tumen Zhen! They are also family members and loved ones who are trying hard to survive and are cared about by others!"

Qiansui's face wrinkled into a ball. "These four crazy men, two are selfish and unworthy, treating human life as worthless; two are so upright that they are almost saintly, they can't even protect themselves but still care about the lives of others... Can they really be the protagonists of the small world?"

Lu Jinzhao climbed over the wall and entered the city, chuckling, "Don't underestimate such kindness. They may be the only ones who will protect ordinary people in the doomsday."

"Don't you dislike the Virgin Mary?"

"Just because I don't want to be a saint doesn't mean I discriminate against all saints. The word 'saint' was not a derogatory word at the beginning. Instead, it was a positive word used to praise people who are selfless and dedicated. In the beginning, saints referred to people like them who were firm in their stance, kind-hearted, and willing to save all living beings. It's just that there are too few true saints, and later on the Internet, it changed its meaning. If I were still the ordinary me in my previous life, when I encountered the end of the world, only people like me would care about the rights and lives of ordinary people like me."

"So this means different standpoints lead to different perspectives on things? It seems to make sense. When I watched Avengers 4 with you, I especially admired people like Iron Man. Although I certainly can't be as selfless as them, it doesn't stop me from admiring them."

"That's what I mean. If you save one or two people, you may be a saint, but if you save many people, you are a hero. Come back, I'm here."

"Here I come!" Qiansui floated into the city excitedly, coiled around Lu Jinzhao's shoulders, revealed his true form, and rubbed his face affectionately.

It is said in the city that if you see a man wearing a white shirt, blue pants, a hood, and a cat-like skin color on his shoulders, you can exchange his heads for supplies.

Someone nearby recognized Lu Jinchao, rushed forward eagerly with the little girl in his arms, and knelt down in front of Lu Jinchao: "Sir! Please give me something to eat! My sister and I haven't eaten for several days! I can't afford to exchange extra heads with you for the time being. When my sister gets better, I will go out of the city and find supplies to return to you!"

Since Lu Jinchao appeared at the city gate half a month ago and successfully entered the city by exchanging supplies for heads, some people have discovered that this young man seems to have a lot of good things on him. It's not that no one has tried to take advantage of him, but those people were killed before they even touched the corner of his clothes, and then others gradually gave up.

Some of them could not offer any exchange conditions and knelt on the street to beg Lu Jinzhao, but unfortunately Lu Jinzhao ignored them.

Once he set a precedent for free giving, others would be less likely to go out and hunt, but would kneel in the street from morning till night waiting for his charity.

He is not short of supplies, but he doesn't want to be taken advantage of.

Moreover, they are used to asking for favors, and inevitably develop a sense of entitlement. If one day he can no longer provide materials or is unwilling to give them for free, he will be attacked by everyone.

Rather than raising a group of ungrateful people, it is better not to give them anything in the first place.

Chitose scanned them for a moment, and his eyes lit up as he said, "They are actually descendants of the fighting Zora people. I thought this race was extinct."

"Zora tribe?" Lu Jinchao seemed to be interested. He stopped and looked at her with a smile in his eyes: "I can cure your sister, but what can you bring to me?"

The Zora girl had obviously just reached adulthood. She seemed to have a mental struggle, closed her eyes, and tore off her clothes: "I can do anything, just ask you to save my sister."

Qiansui was so scared that she covered her eyes with her paws: "Oh my god! Who taught her to pay like this!"

Lu Jinzhao covered his lips with his bandaged hands and coughed lightly. He turned his eyes away, took off the hooded cloak from his shoulders and covered the Zora girl's body, which was mostly exposed. "I don't need such a reward from you, please take care of your own body."

The Zora girl blushed and tears fell down. She looked at her weak sister in her arms and took a few steps on her knees: "Please save her. People in the city say that you can do anything. You can ask me to do anything, really!"

Lu Jinzhao sighed softly, took out a bottle of repair potion and a bag of dry bread from his bracelet, bent down and put them in the girl's palm: "Take it, heal your sister, and report to Residence No. 1 tomorrow morning."

The Zora girl showed a look of joy, and tentatively drank a sip of the potion herself, confirming that she did not feel any discomfort in her body, but instead relieved a lot of pain in her body. She quickly poured the potion into her sister's mouth and looked at Lu Jinzhao gratefully: "Thank you! I will definitely report on time!"

Chitose licked his paw and said, "You are still so soft-hearted towards girls."

"What's the matter? I'm happy to do it."

A man came out, pointed at Lu Jinzhao's nose and yelled, "Didn't you say you would never give us supplies for free? Why are you making an exception for that woman today? We begged you for so long before, why didn't you see it and gave it to us!"

Lu Jinzhao casually pushed back her hair and looked at the man coldly: "My things, I can give them to whoever I want, if you don't agree, just keep it to yourself."

"Didn't everyone kneel down and beg you for it with injuries all over their bodies, but you still refused to give it to them? Why did you treat that woman so specially? Oh, I see. You were attracted by her beauty and wanted to sleep with her, right?"

In an instant, blood splashed.

The man's hand was cut off by Lu Jinzhao. He shook off the blood on the blade and said with a smile: "Since you like to spread dirty rumors so much, how about I sew up your stinky mouth? If it's sewn up, you don't have to eat, and it also saves you the trouble of having no supplies. I think it's a good idea."

The man covered his wrist and stepped back repeatedly: "You!"

Lu Jinzhao looked at the residents with different expressions around him, and said in a deep voice: "I repeat again. I can give my things to whoever I want. If you have any grievances about what you have suffered, you should blame that masked pervert. Don't blame me here. I don't owe you anything."

"If you want to trade heads for supplies, I welcome that. If you want to steal my supplies and want to be a fool who is not afraid of death, I also welcome that."

After saying that, he kicked the severed hand on the ground and walked towards the city gate.

The residents of the city love and hate him. They can exchange their extra heads for supplies so that they don't have to leave the city and die, but when there are no heads, it is impossible to get any benefits from him.

He can't be beaten, he can't be offended, and he can't be offended.

After this delay, when Lu Jinchao walked out of the city gate, Shi Feng had already started fighting with Jian Tingzhi and Lan Jue. Both sides suffered some damage, and the team that went out of the city to look for supplies had long disappeared.

Lu Jinzhao leaned against the city gate and watched for a while. When they were both defeated and discouraged, he slowly walked over and said, "I can give you a head count as long as you give me the cell regenerator."

Qiansui looked at him strangely and said, "If you want cell regenerators, I can get a lot of them in a flash. Why would you do them a favor for nothing?"

"I don't need this thing, but this is the only one they have."

"I see. You want them to lose all their supplies step by step, and have no choice but to go out hunting. Then you want them to rely on the monsters outside to see if they can come back alive every time without any danger, so as to determine whether they are the protagonists, right?"

"All correct."

Shi Feng hesitated for a moment, and seeing that Tumenzhen's broken legs had completely regenerated, he finally took off the cell regenerator that had run out of energy and threw it into Lu Jinchao's arms, "Take it."

Lu Jinzhao took the cell regenerator and put it in his pocket. He smiled and turned on the light brain, and transferred ten heads to each of them, allowing them to successfully obtain the qualification to enter the city.

Lan Jue registered his ID at the city gate, stared at Lu Jinzhao with a sullen face for a long time, and finally snorted coldly, turned around and entered the city.

"He seems to think you're a murderer who can kill sixty people without blinking an eye. Now he's thinking about how to bring you to a military court after this." Chitose rolled his eyes, "It's just wishful thinking."

The number of residences in the city is fixed, and the number is determined by the number of people. Not everyone who successfully enters the city can live in a house, and most people can only squeeze in the underground streets.

Residence No. 1, which has the best conditions, the largest area and the most complete security facilities, is currently occupied by Lu Jinzhao.

Shi Feng carried Tumenzhen into the city, looked around, and finally forcibly robbed the house of the man whose hand was cut off by Lu Jinzhao and drove him out.

Although Jian Tingzhi and Lan Jue disagreed with his actions, they could not say anything. After all, Shi Feng might kill the man and then rob the house, and it was not easy to save the man's life now.

They had some game they had hunted while camping in the wilderness, so some of them took a nap, while others who were hungry set up a pot and started cooking.

The nutrient solution they carried with them had been used up, and now they had to use the most primitive method of eating to replenish their energy. Fortunately, cooking was also a compulsory course in the military academy, so they didn't have to worry about them starving to death.

It’s just that the food taught in military academies is usually for wartime use, and it teaches people how to replenish their energy as quickly as possible. So the food doesn’t taste very good.

When Tumenzhen woke up, he was still in a state of shock. He covered his face and screamed wildly, successfully waking up everyone else around him.

Hua Xi and Zhong Sheng in the next room found him annoying, so they covered their heads, turned over and continued to sleep.

Lan Jue went out to find out what was going on. Jian Tingzhi hadn't slept yet and was sitting aside reading a book. When he saw him wake up, he quickly helped him up, "Your Highness, it's okay. You are safe now."

"Where's Shifeng! Shifeng!" Tumenzhen pushed Jian Tingzhi away: "I don't want you! I don't want you! Don't touch me! Where is Shifeng!"

Shi Feng, who was on guard outside the house, opened the door and walked in, kneeling on one knee: "Your Highness, I'm here."

Jian Tingzhi shook his head helplessly, stood up and walked out, leaving the space to the master and servant.

......

When the group arrived at his door, Lu Jinzhao happened to be fishing in the yard.

He reeled in the fishing line, took the small fish off the hook, threw it into the bucket, picked up a clean towel to wipe his hands, and walked towards the main hall.

He sat down at the first seat and looked at these uninvited guests: "What brings you here so late at night?"

Tumenzhen walked in front. He sat down on the sofa next to him without any hesitation and said in a domineering tone, "I have requisitioned your house. Please pack up and move out."

Qiansui slowly jumped off Lu Jinzhao's shoulder, walked to Tumenzhen, raised his paw and slapped him, and before Shifeng could react, he quickly jumped back onto Lu Jinzhao's shoulder. He licked his paw lazily, "Are you okay? Who are you pretending to be in? You want to live in my house for free, so I have to give it to you? Who do you think you are? Idiot."

Tumenzhen covered his face and screamed, pointing at Qiansui and ordering Shifeng: "Kill this beast! Skin him, pull out his tendons, and hang him at the city gate!"

"Yes."

Just as Shi Feng was about to make a move, Lu Jinzhao raised his chin slightly and glanced at him. The nameless pressure pressed him to the ground, making him unable to move.

He doesn't use his internal force often, but that doesn't mean he doesn't know how to use it.

Seeing this, Tumenzhen pointed at Lan Jue and Jian Tingzhi and said, "What are you standing there for? Come on!"

Lu Jinzhao shifted his gaze to his face. Tumenzhen fell directly off the chair, with his limbs on the ground, and even his face was pressed and deformed.

He collapsed to the ground and groaned in pain.

Qiansui shook his head and said, "I didn't want to bother with you, but you insisted on coming up to get killed."
