Chapter 50: Plunder
After receiving the order, the Qin family’s army marched into the shelter in a grand procession and began to count the supplies.
At first, the survivors did not understand what was happening and welcomed the Qin family’s army.
They had not heard Qin Jun’s command to force the Evolvers of Donghua City to act as cannon fodder. They only saw that Qin Jun had killed Blood Bear.
After Blood Bear’s death, the tens of thousands of survivors in the shelter had cheered, applauded, and cried tears of joy. They all believed that better days were coming.
But soon, they realized something was wrong.
Once the Qin family’s army took over the shelter, they immediately sealed off the warehouses and began to count the supplies. Then they started to move the incredibly valuable food and medical supplies onto trucks.
Without these supplies, the Evolvers might have been able to scavenge the ruins of the city for resources, but what about the ordinary people?!
Outside the shelter, there were wandering zombies everywhere, posing extreme danger. Trying to gather supplies on their own was a death sentence!
A middle-aged woman grabbed the soldier who was moving the supplies, her face full of panic, and asked, “Where are you taking these supplies?”
The soldier replied calmly, “We’re taking them all back to Dongdu.”
The people were stunned and asked, “Taking everything? What about us? What are we supposed to do?”
The soldier’s face was emotionless as he coldly turned away and continued moving supplies. The lives of these people had nothing to do with him.
Perhaps in the old days, he might have felt sympathy for the survivors, but after experiencing this catastrophe, soldiers had seen it all and had become numb.
In the apocalypse, survival was the most important thing. The soldier was thankful to be a member of the Qin family’s army, enjoying relatively good treatment in this chaotic world.
Having such a powerful backer was a stroke of luck. He only needed to follow the orders of the Qin family.
He didn’t care about anything else.
...
Far from the shelter, a shadow was hidden in the void.
It was Xu Chao’s shadow.
After Xu Chao’s shadow was resurrected, he had been constantly controlling the shadow, staying hidden near the shelter to see if his plan had succeeded and if it had caused any conflict between the Qin family and Blood Bear.
Indeed, the Qin family had fought with Blood Bear, but the process and outcome had far exceeded his expectations.
There was no fierce battle, no mutual destruction. Blood Bear had been crushed to death by Qin Jun!
Listening to the distant screams and cries from the shelter, Xu Chao felt a shiver of fear.
Qin Jun was truly ruthless!
He not only looked down on ordinary people but also disregarded Blood Bear’s life! This was an extremely dangerous person. There was almost no way to escape once you provoked him.
But Xu Chao was not particularly nervous. After all, he was only manifesting as a shadow, and no one knew his true identity.
With this thought, Xu Chao felt a sense of security. He was in an undefeated position!
Xu Chao took one last look at Qin Jun before the shadow slowly disappeared.
He planned to reappear once Qin Jun goes to hunt the Zombie King, hoping to take advantage of the chaos to get the Zombie King’s crystal core. Even if he failed, he could at least annoy Qin Jun.
At worst, he would just be reborn again as a shadow. What was there to fear? Would Qin Jun ever know his true identity?
...
Xie Han received a phone call and walked over to Qin Jun, whispering, “Young Master, there is news about Xu Chao...”
