Hearing the woman's words.
Zhou Yuan's pupils contracted and his expression turned serious.
Judging from the woman's tone and the zombie crystalline core in her hand...
'That thing' was obviously referring to the zombies!
The zombies were about to explode? Did she mean that they were becoming more active?
After looking around, Zhou Yuan brought the woman into the library.
When they entered the room, the woman still stubbornly stuffed the zombie crystalline core into Zhou Yuan's hand.
Zhou Yuan took it and weighed it in his hand. Then, he took some food and water from the kitchen.
However, to his surprise, the woman shook her head and refused.
"I won't trade this crystalline core for food. I'll trade it for you to protect me and my sister."
When the little girl heard her sister's rejection, she reluctantly retracted her little hand.
Her little face wrinkled, looking aggrieved.
She hadn't eaten much for two days in a row, and she was really famished.
Zhou Yuan furrowed his brows and then threw the food and water over with a smile."
"You're pretty smart. "
"However, that's a different matter."
"Exchange the crystalline core for food and water. The information you brought will allow you and your sister to join my base."
The woman had clearly understood that Zhou Yuan now held a high position in the camp through a series of information.
Furthermore, with the construction of the walls, she knew that Zhou Yuan was trying to prevent the future zombie horde.
That was why she wanted to use the crystalline core in exchange for a chance of survival.
The woman stood there awkwardly with her sister in her arms.
When she saw Zhou Yuan's sincere expression and her younger sister's longing for food and water, she was stunned.
The woman pursed her lips and quietly brought the food and water over. The two sisters started eating.
After gobbling down the food, the two sisters finally regained their spirits.
Zhou Yuan patiently waited for the two to finish their meal before asking,
"Tell me in detail."
The woman wiped her mouth and said slowly,
"The zombies have started to move and attack humans!"
"Although there are only a few of them at the moment, and their offensive power is not strong."
"But...I think it won't be long before the scene in the movie will happen."
Zhou Yuan nodded.
The reason why he built the walls was to defend against a future zombie outbreak.
The woman must have realized this, so she moved in advance in an attempt to find shelter.
However, she was surprised to meet Zhou Yuan.
After some thought, Zhou Yuan called Zhang He over.
"Arrange a place for her to stay. She'll follow you from now on."
"She'll help to share some of your work."
Hearing this, Zhang He's eyes became alert and a sense of danger rose in his heart.
He was like a child who had just heard about the arrival of a second child to the family and felt that his position was about to be lost.
However, Zhang He heaved a sigh of relief when he saw the woman's beautiful face.
He felt that Zhou Yuan valued this woman for some other reason.
In that case, there would be no conflict with his 'loyal subject' status.
"Alright, Mr. Zhou."
Zhang He's attitude was as respectful as ever.
The woman clenched her fist imperceptibly when she saw this.
She couldn't help but think that she had made the right bet!
Zhang He then left the library with the woman and the little girl.
After the woman brought the news about the zombies, he was stunned.
Zhou Yuan's sense of urgency grew stronger.
In the following three days, he had Zhang He continue to recruit people and speed up the construction of the wall.
This action deeply provoked those bosses.
In their eyes, Zhou Yuan's intention was not only to build the wall.
It was another way of recruiting underlings and expanding his influence.
Therefore, when their underlings started working for Zhou Yuan...
They could no longer sit still.
Thus, on this day, a large group of people once again gathered in front of the library.
When Zhang He, who was supervising the water sales, saw this scene, he sneered and whispered something to his underling.
On the teaching building, Fu Mengyu, who had disappeared for many days, reappeared.
She looked at the library with a cold expression and said,
"Hmph, you feel a sense of crisis now? What were you doing earlier!"
"Back then, if only ..."
Fu Mengyu was so angry that she couldn't speak when she thought of what had happened that day.
It was not only because of Zhou Yuan, but also because of the bosses who had betrayed her.
In front of the library.
Old Black led all the bosses and said,
"Mr. Zhou, please show yourself. We have something to discuss with you!"
No one answered.
Seven or eight seconds later, Zhou Yuan pushed the door open and walked out of the library.
As soon as Zhou Yuan appeared, Zhang He immediately ordered his men to carry the sofa out.
Sitting down firmly, Zhou Yuan said indifferently,
"What is it?"
Old Black said with a smile,
"Mr. Zhou, I wanted to talk to you about the construction of the wall today."
"This campsite is shared by everyone. Isn't it bad for you to surround it without permission?"
Zhou Yuan raised his eyebrows.
"Oh? What's not good?"
"The places I've surrounded used to be the butcher's territory."
"Since I have killed him, shouldn't this territory belong to me?"
Old Black said helplessly.
"The butcher's territory belongs to you, but the lake doesn't belong to him."
"That's for everyone."
Zhou Yuan revealed a look of disdain.
"Shared? It's mine now."
"What do you want to say?"
No matter how the world changed, the law of the jungle was eternal.
Hearing Zhou Yuan's words, all the bosses' faces turned ugly.
Blackie's smile disappeared as well.
"Mr. Zhou, living in the current world is difficult. Everyone is just trying to survive!"
"You've occupied so many water resources. Can you use them all?"
"I think it's better to take it out and share it with everyone, including the seeds."
"Of course, we won't let you suffer any losses,"
Their intention was revealed.
This time, Old Black's plan was similar to Fu Mengyu's last time.
Although the method and the way he spoke were gentler, his purpose was to force Zhou Yuan.
A few days ago, they had sat together to discuss it, but in the end, they had not come to a conclusion.
However, Zhou Yuan had been recruiting more and more workers these days.
They couldn't sit still and chose to unite to fight against Zhou Yuan.
Zhou Yuan smiled.
"You are still so persistence about your evil intentions."
Old Black said seriously,
"We really want to get along with you in peace, Mr. Zhou."
"But your actions are too overbearing."
"If I let you continue like this, this camp will be yours to rule in the future!"
"Where can we find a place to stay?"
"So, Mr. Zhou, you should consider my words carefully."
"Otherwise, it won't do you any good."
"You don't want to be enemies with so many of us, do you?"
"This time, our strength is twice as strong as last time!"
Fu Mengyu had only managed to rope in a small group of people last time. After all, at that time, there were more people like Old Black.
They chose to watch the tigers fight from a distance and wanted to be the fisherman who reaped the benefits.
However, this time, they felt threatened.
Therefore, they chose to unite against Zhou Yuan.
Seeing this, Zhou Yuan slowly stood up and took out his dagger.
Originally, he wanted to live in peace.
After all, stability was the key to faster and better development.
However, it seemed that sometimes, blood was still needed to intimidate.
If one was not ruthless, one's position would be unstable.
Seeing Zhou Yuan's stance, everyone on the other side became cautious and their faces turned serious.
At this moment.
A voice rang out.
"Mr. Zhou, let me do it."
