Looking at the people outside the door still discussing countermeasures.
This time, Zhang Yi didn't bother aiming.
These were just ordinary neighbors. Kill them, and it didn't matter. They would die soon enough from infection in a few days anyway.
Because it was indiscriminate shooting, Zhang Yi's speed increased.
One hand quickly loaded a crossbow arrow and then drew the bow directly!
"Swish!"
A sharp sound cut through the air, followed by a scream.
A man covered his neck, eyes filled with terror, slowly falling to the ground.
People looked over and found a rusty crossbow arrow lodged in his neck!
"He's armed! Be careful!"
The people around shouted in fear and quickly tried to disperse.
But the corridor was so narrow, hundreds of people squeezed together, making it impossible to run.
Because of fear, in their haste, they tripped over each other in a chaotic mess.
Zhang Yi didn't care about them, just focused on two things: loading and shooting!
The power of a professional hand crossbow, combined with tetanus arrows, meant almost no chance of survival once hit.
"Swish!"
"Swish!"
"Swish!"
The sharp sound of breaking air was like a deadly melody, causing every neighbor's heart to shatter.
Screams echoed one after another, blood flowed from those hit, falling to the ground on the spot.
This made others even more scared, frantically trying to squeeze into the stairwell.
Some people fell to the ground, not able to get up before being trampled.
Screams were everywhere.
Chen Zhenghao held a gun in his hand, blocking the stairs, aiming at those trying to escape.
"What are you afraid of? He's just one person! Everyone, attack!"
Chen Zhenghao's cold eyes and the dark barrel of the gun scared away those attempting to escape.
Chen Zhenghao's goal was to use them as cannon fodder, deplete Zhang Yi's defensive capabilities. There was no way he would let them escape.
Sun Zhichao and others, in order to survive, stayed far away and were not hit by arrows.
Zhang Yi shot dozens of crossbow arrows, and in such a densely packed area, almost none missed.
This meant that at least dozens of lives were about to end.
However, the potential of people in desperate situations is still powerful.
Someone immediately noticed the position of the shooting hole and said, "There's a hole above the door; he's shooting arrows from there! Block it!"
Immediately, people raised brooms and mops to block the shooting hole above the door.
Some tried to throw things into Zhang Yi's room.
Unperturbed, Zhang Yi quickly closed and locked the iron door behind the shooting hole.
It could only be opened from the inside, making it impervious from the outside.
But now, Zhang Yi had eliminated dozens of combatants in one go.
Seeing that Zhang Yi couldn't shoot arrows anymore, the neighbors came back to their senses from the initial shock.
The ground was a mess, many people were shot, with injuries ranging from mild to severe.
Three people had wounds on their necks and heads and died on the spot.
However, when the neighbors saw the rusty tetanus arrows, their hearts sank.
They knew that those hit by the arrows had little chance of survival.
Some people lost their loved ones, crying and cursing Zhang Yi.
"Zhang Yi, you despicable scoundrel, you are shameless!"
"Come out! If you have the guts, come out and face me one-on-one!"
"You murderous demon, I will fight you!"
"Zhang Yi! I will kill you!"
...
The only response to them was the lively song coming from Zhang Yi's room.
Understanding love after experiencing it How deep love can be Realizing what to cherish after losing it ...
Outside, curses continued, while inside, the music continued, resembling Zhang Yi's provocation to everyone.
In fact, that was precisely the case.
Zhang Yi shot dozens of crossbow arrows in succession. Feeling a bit tired, he went to the kitchen, took out a bottle of cola from the fridge, and gulped it down.
"Ah! Refreshing!"
Zhang Yi looked at the screen, monitoring the movements of the people outside.
At this moment, seeing the fortress-like gate of Zhang Yi's house unbreakable, the neighbors felt both anxious and hopeless.
"How can this be?"
Just then, Sun Zhichao shouted, "Don't worry, everyone! I have a solution!"
Everyone looked in his direction. Sun Zhichao, holding his injured leg, walked over laboriously.
He pointed to the wall of Zhang Yi's house and said with a smile, "Their door is made of alloy, and we can't break it. But isn't this wall made of bricks and cement? I don't believe we can't smash it!"
Upon hearing this, everyone's eyes lit up with intelligence.
"That's right, why didn't I think of that!"
"If the door can't be broken, let's break the wall!"
"There are so many of us; it won't take long to smash this wall."
"Hehe, Zhang Yi, this scoundrel, definitely didn't expect we had this method!"
In the room, Zhang Yi raised an eyebrow when he saw the neighbors suddenly cheering and getting excited. The music was too loud, and he couldn't hear what they were saying.
But Zhang Yi wasn't worried; he planned to wait and see what would happen.
This gang brought various tools with them.
Soon, they formed a queue and came to the outer wall of Zhang Yi's house, wielding hammers and axes, and started to smash it!
"Bang!"
A strong man used all his strength, and the hammer hit the wall hard.
Instantly, a crack appeared, and white dust fell.
Seeing this, the crowd's eyes were filled with excitement, thinking they had found a breakthrough in Zhang Yi's defense.
Then they started smashing even harder.
However, when the big man lifted the hammer for the second time, a sound of metal collision suddenly came.
Ping!
At the same time, the big man let out a scream, and the hammer fell to the ground.
He took a few steps back and fell to the ground. People saw that his hands had long cuts, and blood was flowing out quickly, freezing under the low temperature.
"What's going on?"
People were very confused. What kind of wall could withstand the impact of a sledgehammer?
Someone walked over, swept away the outer dust, and when they saw what was behind it, their jaws almost dropped!
"This... this wall is also made of steel!"
People were shocked and gathered to take a look.
Sure enough, after removing the outer layer of white dust, a thick black metal appeared.
The material was the same as the gate.
Someone couldn't help but shout to the sky, "Why is this happening? Whose house is made with steel walls?"
Someone covered their face, shouting in despair.
Zhang Yi's neighbors, a young couple, were also saddened. "We knew they were renovating, but we never expected it to turn out like this."
In this world, probably very few normal families would build a house like this!
Sun Zhichao, Zhou Peng, and Ge Jialiang had bloodshot eyes.
If the people in the entire apartment building couldn't break into Zhang Yi's house today, they would be left with no choice but to wait for death!
Sun Zhichao clenched his lips, and he didn't even realize that he had bitten them hard enough to draw blood.
"Zhang Yi, he knew about the snow disaster in advance! Everything he did was to defend against us!" Sun Zhichao pointed angrily at Zhang Yi's house, shouting.
Neighbors glanced at him, crying and cursing Zhang Yi in pain.
"Despicable scoundrel Zhang Yi, only cares about staying alive, not considering the rest of us!"
"If we all die, what's the point of you being the only one alive? Won't you feel lonely if you're the only one left in the world?"
"Someday, you'll sink into endless regret and self-blame for not warning us or helping us!"
"Can you sleep at night? Don't you feel guilty?"
Some people, seeing that Zhang Yi had them cornered, started using the spirit of A-Q to console themselves.
"Hmph, sooner or later, God will make you pay, Zhang Yi!"
"If we die because of you, you'll surely live with a guilty conscience for the rest of your life, suffering!"
Little did they know how comfortable Zhang Yi was living in his own house, nor did they regard these somewhat familiar strangers as anything significant.
Chen Zhenghao, holding a gun, had been supervising from behind.
Now, seeing the fully metallic wall, he felt the problem was becoming tricky.
At this point, he had lost interest in the others and only wanted to seize Zhang Yi's house!
"Why are you in such a hurry? This is just the beginning!"
"Even if their walls are cast in iron, what about the ceiling? And the floor?"
"I don't believe he turned his place into an iron box!"
Chen Zhenghao coldly declared to everyone.
Zhang Yi, listening to Chen Zhenghao's words through surveillance, nodded approvingly.
"This guy's brain is pretty useful."
Then he sighed and shook his head, saying, "But unfortunately, I'm not stupid."
Upon hearing Chen Zhenghao's words, the neighbors rushed upstairs and downstairs in Zhang Yi's house.
Using hammers, axes, chisels, and wooden sticks, they tried everything!
Inches away from their hope of survival, all they needed to break through was 20 centimeters.
And their goal was to breach that 20 centimeters!
However, soon, they fell into a deeper level of despair.
They discovered that Zhang Yi's house was indeed an iron box!
Top, bottom, left, right—there wasn't a single angle that wasn't sealed with thick iron plates!
In this power outage situation, without electric saws, drills, and other tools, unless they abstained from eating and drinking for a year, they wouldn't have any hope of breaking through these walls!
