The Li Chenzhou team was currently driving the Dark Blood, circling within the city, desperately clearing out every zombie in sight from the outer edges inward!

This was Duan Lei's idea. Since they had lost track of the gunman, they might as well continue clearing the city as they had been. After all, the gunman was definitely in the city, and they were bound to run into him sooner or later.

Moreover, Duan Lei directly suggested that they no longer enter the city center along a single line and return, as that was too slow.

Before, they rescued people because Li Chenzhou wanted to save as many as possible, and it was convenient. But now, they needed to hurry, so they would put rescuing people aside for the moment. After all, by circling the city from the outermost edges inward, any survivors could escape on their own.

Besides, most survivors had already left the city. Only a very few were still hiding at home, waiting to die. After all, it had been more than a week since the apocalypse began, and without water or electricity, not many people could have survived this long.

What's more, those who were still hiding at home, afraid to come out, were probably the kind of cowards who trembled at the sight of a zombie. These were not the kind of people Li Chenzhou wanted to save.

Therefore, Li Chenzhou accepted Duan Lei's suggestion and began circling the city along the ring roads. Since they were going from the outside in, they naturally started with the outermost Fifth Ring Road – Ah~ Ah~ Ah~ Ah~ Fifth Ring Road~~!

In addition, now that they had the space battle car, Li Chenzhou and his team began to collect various supplies on a large scale, mainly food and water. Moreover, Grey Bear and the others were planning to add some furniture to their rooms.

However, although they were collecting supplies, their speed was much faster than before because they no longer needed to take care of other survivors.

Especially with Fatty around. As soon as they arrived at a location, he would find a high point to climb, create a loud noise to attract the attention of zombies in the surrounding area, and then shout, "Come on over here!" The surrounding zombies would then rush towards him, as if summoned by the Zombie King.

The others waited for the zombies beside the Dark Blood, and then began a massive slaughter. Because of the combat suits, as long as there were no enhanced zombies, they didn't have to worry about being scratched or bitten, so they fought without any hesitation, and their killing speed was naturally extremely fast.

Finally, Li Chenzhou felt that something was wrong, so he reminded everyone that during combat, they must ensure that they were not grabbed by any zombies.

This was for future preparation. The combat suits were only effective in the early stages. Later, when there were more enhanced zombies, these suits would be no better than ordinary clothes.

If everyone got used to ignoring zombie attacks now, they wouldn't be able to change their fighting style when facing enhanced zombies in the future.

With Li Chenzhou's reminder, everyone became serious and began trying to use the zombies to practice their combat skills. Even Duan Xue and Duan Lei joined the battle, and Xiao Ya was directly entrusted with driving the car.

Xiao Ya was a child and a mental系 (xì) user, so she naturally didn't need to practice combat skills. In fact, Li Chenzhou didn't want Duan Lei to practice combat either, because the special nature of his talent meant that he would not be able to fight enhanced zombies in the later stages!

The maximum attributes of an ordinary person, before the apocalypse, would definitely make them a king among soldiers, or even a guaranteed champion in the Olympics. However, in the apocalypse, such attributes were very ordinary, and would become increasingly weaker over time.

Even now, Li Chenzhou's attributes, and even Grey Bear's attributes, were enough to crush Duan Lei, as long as mental strength wasn't taken into account!

Therefore, Li Chenzhou had long told Duan Lei that he would rely on the car in the future. Once they encountered a battle, he must not leave the car, unless he was about to activate his talent ability.

That's right, because of the different space, Duan Lei's talent ability could finally be used at any time!

碎魂 (Suì Hún) (Soul Shatter): When activated, it unleashes a soul shock on all creatures within a ten-meter radius, causing mental damage and unconsciousness in minor cases, and direct death in severe cases, indiscriminately!

This was Duan Lei's talent ability, Soul Shatter. This ability was actually very powerful. Once activated, anyone with mental strength lower than Duan Lei's would definitely be injured or killed. Most importantly, Duan Lei's passive talent was to have his mental strength at full value and doubled, meaning that even evolved creatures one level higher than him could not withstand his Soul Shatter!

The only fatal flaw was that Soul Shatter was indiscriminate. Anyone within a ten-meter radius of Duan Lei would become a target, so Duan Lei rarely used his talent ability before!

Because once he activated it, he didn't know what would happen to the enemy, but on his side, apart from Li Chenzhou, everyone else would probably die under Duan Lei's Soul Shatter.

Having a powerful ability but being unable to use it once made Duan Lei very depressed, but now, with the space battle car Dark Blood, Duan Lei's worries had finally disappeared.

Because it was a different space, neither sound nor mental power could cross the spatial boundary. Therefore, if Duan Lei really needed to release his talent ability, everyone else only needed to return to the car, and then Duan Lei could release Soul Shatter outside.

However, five days had passed since leaving the prison base, and Duan Lei still hadn't found a good opportunity to release Soul Shatter.

Because he simply wasn't needed. In fact, although Fatty's skill could summon almost all the zombies in an area, the members of Li Chenzhou's team were already familiar with this world and familiar with combat. Not to mention Li Chenzhou, even Grey Bear and Tian Ya didn't need to use any skills when killing zombies!

Therefore, in the past five days, apart from Fatty's skill being frequently released to attract zombies, the others had basically not released any skills or talent abilities!

"Uh~! Boss! We're already on the Third Ring Road, and this... is actually considered the formal urban area!"

After killing a wave of zombies, Grey Bear, who had returned to the living room to rest, picked up a beer from the coffee table, opened it, and chugged down an entire can. He then burped and said to Li Chenzhou:

"There's something I don't know if you've noticed, but... the number of zombies we're encountering seems to be decreasing, and there hasn't been a single enhanced zombie! Didn't you say you encountered an enhanced zombie on the second day?"

"I noticed it a long time ago!"

Li Chenzhou replied with a somewhat grave expression.

He and Duan Lei had long discovered this phenomenon – the deeper they went into the city, the lower the density of zombies became. Moreover, they hadn't seen a single enhanced zombie. On the other hand, they had found quite a few survivors, but this time, Li Chenzhou didn't take them along. Instead, he directly pointed out a safe route and let them escape the city on their own!

Duan Lei's explanation for this was that there were two possibilities. One was that Leopard had begun to act. After all, he was the Zombie King and could summon zombies. The other was naturally related to the missing gunman...
