BXBX NOVEL Chapter 67
After suffering such a heavy defeat, it would be a disservice to themselves not to exact eye for an eye.0
Moreover, she had many things to accomplish, and time couldn\'t be wasted lingering here.0
Lu Chen gazed calmly into the distance, his eyes unfathomably deep.0
"It\'s time."0
Beside him, Xiao Feng furrowed his thick brows, "You\'re leaving?"0
"Yeah, will you miss us?"0
Nie Yizhou walked over and draped an arm around his shoulder.0
These past days, he was grateful to have this poor sap of a brother to keep him company as they endured the grueling training and beatings.0
Without him, this hellish demonic training would have been utterly unbearable.0
Xiao Feng glanced back at the small house.0
Initially, he had planned to come to his grandmother\'s home, to stay with her and protect her, even if it meant dying here.0
But now his grandmother was gone, and he had unexpectedly befriended these three individuals.0
Although their personalities were all quite peculiar, he found them very much to his liking.0
Suddenly hearing that they were leaving, he felt a twinge of reluctance.0
Perhaps...0
In this apocalyptic world filled with despair at every turn, staying together with such a group wouldn\'t be so bad.0
He turned his gaze back to the three of them.0
"Can I leave with you?"0
Yun Xiaoxiao\'s dimples appeared as she smiled sweetly.0
"Brother Feng, you know that following us... means you could die at any moment, right?"0
Her smile was mischievous and slightly wicked.0
Xiao Feng ran a hand through his spiky red hair.0
"Die if we die. Who doesn\'t die eventually? It\'s just a matter of sooner or later. What\'s the big deal? At least if I\'m with you guys, someone will be around to bury me."0
"Haha, well said! Come on, brother Feng, let\'s go conquer this apocalyptic world together!"0
"Who are you calling \'brother\'? Get lost! If anything, I should be the one calling you that!"0
"You?" Nie Yizhou looked him up and down. "You\'re barely out of diapers, and you want to be called \'brother\'?"0
"Who are you saying is barely out of diapers? I\'d say you\'re the one who—"0
"Ahem..." Lu Chen cleared his throat lightly. "Mind yourselves, we have a minor present."0
Yun Xiaoxiao rubbed her nose, feigning innocence as if she hadn\'t heard or understood anything.0
She was still just a child, after all...0
Nie Yizhou and Xiao Feng glared at each other one last time before simultaneously shutting up.0
The four of them quickly packed up their belongings from the house.0
Xiao Feng knelt before his grandmother\'s grave and kowtowed a few times.0
"Let\'s go."0
After Xiao Feng stood up, the four of them walked out of the mud-walled courtyard together.0
On one side of the road outside the abandoned prison.0
It was a slope, with farmland below and the road above.0
The four of them lay on the slope, raising their heads slightly so that only their eyes and above were visible.0
Xiao Feng didn\'t understand, "Why are we hiding here?"0
Lu Chen\'s voice was low, "We were shot at here before. The shooter was likely a highly skilled sniper. If we appear recklessly, we might fall into another trap."0
"You mean they\'re still out there waiting for us to show up, Chen?"0
Nie Yizhou glanced towards the abandoned prison.0
But the distance was too great; he could only see the buildings, not whether there were people on them.0
"It\'s very possible."0
"I have an idea."0
A crisp childish voice suddenly rang out.0
Nie Yizhou looked at Yun Xiaoxiao, whose eyes gleamed with calculation and cunning.0
"Kid, you\'ve got another one of your sneaky plans, don\'t you? But let me tell you upfront, I\'m not dressing up as a woman again this time. If someone has to do it, make... Xiao Feng do it."0
Xiao Feng: ???0
"You\'ve dressed up as a woman before?" He tried hard to suppress his laughter, his tone dripping with sarcasm, "No wonder you\'re so effeminate."0
Nie Yizhou glared at him with murderous intent, gritting his teeth, "Who are you calling effeminate, you little brat!"0
"Alright, settle down, you two." Lu Chen pinched the bridge of his nose.0
"Xiaoxiao, go ahead and tell us your idea."0
"Big brother, I think..."0
Yun Xiaoxiao\'s eyes sparkled with mischief as she laid out her thoughts and plans one by one.0
After she finished, Nie Yizhou patted her shoulder.0
"Not bad, kid. That little brain of yours is pretty sharp. You\'ve got a bag full of tricks, don\'t you?"0
Xiao Feng agreed, "Indeed, you\'re a clever little devil. Anyone who crosses you is bound to regret it."0
On the roof of a tall building in the abandoned prison.0
A young man lay prone on the ground, holding a rifle and carefully scanning the surroundings of the prison through the scope.0
Besides him, there were two others in similar positions on lower buildings nearby.0
However, those two were clearly less professional than him.0
Suddenly, the young man\'s brows furrowed, his expression growing serious.0
He adjusted the focus on his scope, staring intently at the direction of the road.0
A head wearing a baseball cap had just poked out from the side of the road.0
It was the little girl from before!0
His eyes lit up as he aimed at the \'person\'s\' head and pulled the trigger.0
"Bang!"0
A direct hit.0
The \'person\' immediately fell down.0
At that moment, three more tall figures wearing baseball caps and keeping their heads low crawled out from the side of the road.0
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"0
Three gunshots rang out in quick succession.0
Those three \'people\' fell to the ground without surprise, lifeless.0
The young man frowned slightly.0
Although he had successfully dealt with those \'people\', he couldn\'t shake the feeling that something was off.0
It seemed... too easy!0
His previous impression of those people was that they were quite formidable.0
At this moment, on the slope by the roadside, four figures simultaneously disappeared.0
Left behind were four headless mannequins dressed in clothes, their plastic heads shattered by bullets.0
These were the mannequins Yun Xiaoxiao had stored in her spatial inventory when collecting clothes from a clothing store earlier.0
Just now, they had used these fake people to deceive the sniper on the other side.0
From that distance, with baseball caps on and only a small part of the body exposed, the enemy had no time to discern whether they were real people or not.0
This was exactly the effect she had aimed for.0
Otherwise, how else could they pinpoint the enemy\'s exact location?0
"Hi there, how are you?"0
As the young man was pondering in confusion, a light childish voice suddenly sounded from behind him.0
His heart jolted, and he quickly turned around.0
In the next second, a bullet was flying straight towards the center of his forehead.0
His face filled with terror, but he had no time to dodge before the bullet pierced his skull.0
In that moment, he finally realized what had felt off earlier.0
The \'people\' he had shot were stiff and unyielding, not even trying to dodge, as if... they were waiting to be shot!0
So, it had been intentional!0
It was all to locate his position!0
But even though he had figured it out, it was far too late.0
He fell, his face a mask of shock and unwillingness.0
As Yun Xiaoxiao fired at him, Lu Chen also raised his gun, swiftly taking out the snipers on the other two lower buildings.0
"They\'re back! They\'re back!"0
"They\'ve killed all three gunmen!"0
At this moment, the guards below also spotted their figures.0
The scene instantly descended into chaos.0
