The people around thought Sterling would rather die than give in, but they didn't expect him to compromise and actually hand over the gun.
Even Benjamin was cursing in his heart.
"He's just a show-off. We should have all rushed him just now and killed him."
A local student came over at this time, reached out to take Sterling's shotgun, but couldn't pull it, and then inevitably exerted more force, his face turning red.
"Damn it, let go, do you believe I'll kill you?"
He pulled with all his strength, his face already purple, but still couldn't move it at all.
"Puff"
Warm blood splashed everywhere, the man's neck was completely cut open, blood sprayed everywhere, the bloody scene was shocking.
Sterling kicked him in the chest, and the moment he pulled out the knife, it was still bleeding.
Blood splashed all the way to the ground, his neck was cut off, his head was hanging to one side, and blood was still flowing down, dyeing the ground red.
Only his eyes were wide open in death, as if questioning what had happened.
"How dare you kill someone?"
The local students finally recovered from the shock.
"Kill him, kill him for me!"
The already tense atmosphere escalated again, and all the local students aimed their guns.
However, Sterling was not planning on being a passive target.
He had already observed everyone through the Eye of Truth, and the breakthrough was on the right side.
Without bullets, he tossed the double-barreled shotgun towards Benjamin's side, quickly turned to attack the person behind him, slit his throat, and seized the gun, turning around.
Benjamin instinctively reached for the gun, the dagger separated from Abigail's neck, and as he grasped the handle, he didn't have time to be excited before he looked up.
"Bang"
The first bullet pierced Benjamin's shoulder, causing him to grimace in pain.
But the next second, Sterling, unstoppable, quickly stepped forward and fired several shots at Benjamin.
"Bang, bang, bang, bang"
Three shots hit his body, one shot to the head right between the eyebrows, and Benjamin died on the spot.
The local students were stunned; although they also had guns, they didn't blink when killing, it was too brutal and bloody.
Many people were so frightened by the sound of the gunshots that they lost the will to resist, all retreated, and avoided the situation.
Seeing Sterling fire several shots and kill people, they jumped around, covering their heads and running, the courage and arrogance they had just now were gone.
Human nature is like this, not daring to face zombies, not daring to face humans who are more ruthless than them, if they can't fight, they run, if they can't run, they surrender, this is the inherent cowardice in human nature, born with it.
"Sterling!"
Abigail, who was overly frightened, hugged Sterling tightly.
Being hugged like this during the fight, if someone shot at him, he couldn't dodge.
Fortunately, they were so frightened that they jumped around without any intention of shooting back, Sterling let out a big sigh of relief and protected Abigail behind him.
"Quick, hide!"
"Sterling, you're here! Wuwu..."
A short, fat man with a bruised face, crying, rushed over and hugged Sterling.
"If you didn't come, I was going to be beaten to death!"
"Fatso, get out of the way, disgusting or not?"
The fat man's name is David, and he is also one of Sterling's best friends, a close buddy of Sterling.
"Sterling, look at what they did to me, my eyes are swollen."
"Alright, as long as you're not dead, I'll get revenge for you later."
Just as they exchanged a few words, suddenly there was a gunshot from upstairs, followed by a violent scream.
"Zombies, someone has mutated, run!"
The students who just ran upstairs stumbled down again.
Sterling was taken aback and shouted:
"Everyone, run, find a room to hide in first!"
The students also forgot to chat, the male and female students from H country stumbled towards the conference room on the first floor.
One after another, they rushed in, closed the door, and worked together to move tables and chairs to block the door, sweating profusely.
The screams and gunshots outside were incessant, especially the heart-wrenching screams, which made everyone shudder.
Some female students with poor psychological quality hid in the corner and whimpered in low voices.
This crying led to everyone feeling very down.
Sterling tried to make conversation, asking:
"When is your dad coming to pick up the international students?"
Abigail said anxiously:
"Tomorrow morning, around eight o'clock."
Sterling calculated the time, it is now about 4 a.m., there are still 4 hours until 8 o'clock.
"Whether it's a blessing or a disaster, you can't avoid it, you hide inside, don't open the door for anyone."
As he spoke, Sterling was about to climb out the window.
"Sterling, come back, it's dangerous outside!"
Abigail reminded anxiously.
It is indeed dangerous outside, but for Sterling, danger also comes with opportunities.
Without further ado, he turned and climbed out.
When Sterling emerged, he happened upon a few wealthy second-generation H-country students who were hiding here and there.
Sterling had no time to deal with them; if they got infected, it would be a bonus, as killing them might yield cards.
Clutching his dagger, he strode towards the stairway with determination, like a moth drawn to flame.
As he reached the corner, he saw a black student stumble and fall, quickly pounced upon by a naked female zombie.
The carotid artery was torn open, splattering blood all over the wall as the black student screamed in agony.
Sterling was in no hurry to intervene; instead, he observed the female zombie intently.
The [Appraisal] result indicates that the female mutant is a first-order mutated creature, having likely endured unspeakable torture before her transformation.
Sterling rested his chin on his hand in thought, which reminded him of a socialite.
It seemed that the trigger for mutation was not just the loss of sanity; despair might also lead to mutation.
"Pffft"
With a swift strike of his dagger, Sterling pierced its temple.
The female zombie died on the spot, and the black student wasn't faring much better, lying in a pool of his own blood.
Just as he had thought, only a shot to the head could kill a zombie.
"Help me, please help me…"
The black student clutched at Sterling's pant leg, whispering for help.
Sterling looked at him and said:
"There's no saving you now, but I can end your life and spare you further suffering!"
"No, even as a zombie, it's still living. I don't want to die!"
The black student, spitting out blood, pleaded unwillingly.
"Close your eyes!"
"Pffft"
A single strike, and the student's life was ended, a red light flashed.
"Whoa!"
For the first time, a skill card was dropped!
