I hacked through the chaotic world with my blade

He naturally heard what the other party said.

He absolutely wouldn't believe it.

Dammit.

Now people in the apocalypse are ruthless liars.

Specializing in deceiving those who are alive.

He's been through it before. If he believed any random word, he'd be dead by now.

In the corner was a pre-prepared zip line, tied to sturdy equipment, then bound to himself, ready to slide down from the rooftop.

He definitely wasn't going to have any interaction with the other person.

Surviving his trap showed the other was terrifying. If they really met, he might not even know how he'd die.

Looking down, the height was great, placing a lot of pressure on his heart.

If he had a fear of heights, he'd already be so scared his legs would go weak.

Preparation complete.

Climbing over the rooftop, legs bent, using the rebound force from the wall to descend, leveraging, descending, repeatedly.

After a while.

He landed on both hands, stepping firmly on the ground, feeling a sense of grounded comfort, undoing the rope from his body, quickly distancing himself from the tall building. Turning back to look, he saw a figure appear on the rooftop.

"Idiot."

The mysterious survivor's lips curled into a smug smile.

You climbed up, I'm already down.

Trying to catch me, you're dreaming.

Though it was a pity to abandon a long-prepared safe spot here, as long as he was alive, there was hope; if he lost his life, he'd have nothing.

But soon...

Something happened that stunned him for life.

The guy standing on the rooftop actually jumped directly from it, the falling figure leaving him dumbfounded and stunned.

The sound of landing.

The other party walked towards him.

Thud!

He was so scared he sat weakly on the ground, throat moving as he stared in panic, quickly pulling out a knife from his waist, aiming it at Lin Fan, clearly ready to stab him if he dared approach.

Clink!

Lin Fan stepped forward, holding the other party's knife, smiling.

"Don't be afraid, I mean no harm."

The other party looked at the knife held barehanded, then at Lin Fan's face. The pale face remained unchanged, still extremely pale.

Seeing the vacant look on the other's face, honestly, Lin Fan was somewhat puzzled.

"Have you never seen 'Zombie Album'?"

It's been distributed by now.

Moreover, the rooftop city's distance from Huang City is far yet not so far, it shouldn't be possible.

The other party remained silent.

Lin Fan spoke gently, "Really, don't be afraid, my name is Lin Fan, I came from Huang City, there's a shelter there where many people live. I came out to clear zombies, please believe me, I would never deceive you."

"After all, you just saw, my abilities are probably beyond your imagination. If I meant harm to you, you wouldn't survive."

Perhaps Lin Fan's words made some sense.

The other's expression eased greatly, the originally slow breath started to speed up, to relieve the earlier tension.

"My name is Xu Yang."

"Xu Yang, hello."

"Hello."

Lin Fan pulled him up, caringly brushing off the dust on his body. For a stranger, meeting for the first time, a bit of enthusiasm can provide reassurance.

In Lin Fan's eyes, this newcomer named Xu Yang seemed like a frightened animal, despite being enveloped by his warmth, still shivering.

Clearly, in his time here, he must've gone through very dark times.

Causing great pressure on his heart.

Walking out of this pressure would require time for healing.

"Can you tell me where all the zombies in this city went?"

Lin Fan asked.

Trying to determine if things were as he suspected.

Due to the appearance of lord zombies, they directly formed Corpse Ball and left.

Hearing Lin Fan's words.

Was like triggering Xu Yang's unwilling nightmare.

He actually shivered.

A fear surged through him.
