Chapter 50: Man-Eating Society

Translator: Law Editor: Hitesh_

Xie Dong’s off-road car was running on the highway, passing many abandoned vehicles that lay along the highway. Before, many roads and highways were jammed by abandoned vehicles; but as people often drove out of bases to hunt zombies during these years, some paths were slowly cleared in the areas where they had been.

People all panicked when the apocalyptic era began. No one remembered any traffic rules, and everyone wanted to drive and leave. As more and more cars squeezed into the roads and highways, one could imagine the result. Car accidents happened one after another, and every accident was a pileup. The corpses of the people who didn’t manage to run were still lying in their cars, while the ones who survived had abandoned their vehicles.

Therefore, since the post-apocalyptic era started, many places started looking the same. Only after the bases of survivors were built up did people slowly realize what had happened, and gradually found a way to keep living amidst zombie crowds.

Lin Qiao and Xie Dong kept driving southward day and night. When the car ran out of gas, they would take out the gas from her space to refuel. When they encountered zombie-hunting squads, they normally would avoid them; but if they couldn’t, Xie Dong would have no choice but to deal with those people alone.

Like now…

“You alone? Where’re your teammates?” A group of burly guys barred the road, standing in front of Xie Dong’s car.

Xie Dong stopped the car and sat still in the driver’s seat. With his eyes, he quietly measured the seven men who had surrounded his car.

These people fiercely blocked his way once they showed up. All seven of them were wearing thick bullet-proof jackets and black combat uniforms, holding rifles in their hands. More guns were worn on their waists, backs, and legs. These people were armed to the teeth. As soon as Xie Dong stopped the car, they rushed up and surrounded it.

All seven of them showed a really surprised look in their eyes when they found that Xie Dong was in the car alone. They greedily scanned across his car over and over again, but after finding nothing good in there, began talking to him in a cold and rude tone.

At the sight of these people’s looks and gears, Xie Dong knew that he had encountered with the post-apocalyptic world version of robbers.

There were one kind of people who were capable of fighting but weren’t willing to make the efforts and guard their bases, nor come out to hunt zombies and trade their harvests for food. They only liked to stay in the bases and sneakily rob the others, or steal and gain things by cheating. They were a bunch of rascals and rogues.

Over time, these people were reported by the others and kicked out by the administrators of their bases. They lived a vagabond life out here, holding a grudge against the people in the bases. Therefore, they would often attack zombie-hunting squads, committing robberies and murders. No one was restraining them out here, which made them even more savage.

Most people who encountered them or were targeted by them wouldn’t be able to make it back to their bases alive.

Judging by these people’s behavior and the look in their eyes, Xie Dong knew who they were. He remained sitting still without answering their question.

A man thumped at the car window by Xie Dong’s side and yelled at him fiercely, “You, get out!”

Xie Dong knew that if he got out of the car, these people would tip the car over. After all, these people weren’t ordinary, all having superpowers.
