The closer they got to the courtyard in the center without black blood, the stronger the sound of rock music became.

The noisy sound made everyone frown slightly.

This music sounded okay from afar, but the closer they got, the more it gave them a headache.

Too loud.

Probably only kids Bai Yifan’s age would like this kind of noisy music.

"Sis, they’re so loud, won’t the zombies come?"

Bai Yifan nodded to the rhythm of the music and curiously asked Bai Xiqin.

Even if the zombies couldn’t smell human blood and flesh, they would still charge over when they heard the noise.

Just like how they would pounce on a speaker making a sound.

"Did we hear anything on the edge of the town?"

Bai Xiqin looked in the direction of the house and shook her head slightly.

In such a large town, only this three-story building wasn’t smeared with zombie blood.

This indicates that people should be living inside.

But to reach this small safe zone, they smeared the entire town with zombie blood, wasting such a large area.

Bai Xiqin noticed that the whole town was empty, devoid of people.

Logically, this shouldn’t be the case, even with lots of zombies, not the entire town should be wiped out.

It seems, besides the zombies, there’s also human-caused disaster.

"How do we fight?"

Bai Zhengxuan silently took off the gloves on his protective suit, revealing his palms.

He had already switched to combat mode.

Releasing superpowers often required exposing one’s hands, otherwise, it would be troublesome if the protective suit got burned.

The old man, having lived so long, felt his spirits lifted as he got to be a hero like those on TV for the first time.

"The girls kidnapped should also be inside here, find out what’s going on inside first, then deal with the scumbags."

Bai Xiqin could vaguely hear amidst the cacophony of music, the cries of girls and the laughter of men.

Bai Xiqin’s brows furrowed, her mood somewhat melancholy.

In the apocalypse, weakness is the original sin.

"I’m ready."

Bai Yifan silently encased himself in a layer of golden light, his fingers tightly gripping a knife that had been reinforced countless times.

Leng Yebai circled around on his skateboard and whispered, "There’s no one around, it’s empty inside, only this courtyard has people."

The courtyard was chaotic, as if reverting back to before the apocalypse, with young people having a wild party.

Bai Xiqin couldn’t sense any killing intent, nor the pressure of powerful superpower users.

This indicated that the superpower users inside were of a lower rank than she was, hence she didn’t feel any pressure or killing intent.

The differences between superpower users could still be easily felt if observed carefully.

Unless the other party deliberately hid themselves, not leaking any aura at all.

As a Control Ability User, Bai Xiqin had absolute control over space and a much sharper sensitivity to superpowers than ordinary users.

If someone had lower superpowers than hers, they might not feel anything, but if someone had higher superpowers, Bai Xiqin could keenly sense even a slight leak of aura.

For example, Zhang Yiming.

She had long sensed that Zhang Yiming’s level was frighteningly high; Zhang Yiming didn’t mention it and she didn’t ask.

Even if some malice periodically seeped out from Zhang Yiming, Bai Xiqin could still feel that he bore no ill intentions towards her or her family.

"Let’s enter through the main gate!"

Bai Xiqin said domineeringly.

For those lower ranked than herself, Bai Xiqin particularly liked to crush them with her strength.

No need for sympathy for these villains.

The Bai Family had nothing to refute, following whatever their daughter said, even if it meant going through hell or high water.

The whole family put away their skateboards in a corner.

The whole family walked towards the only courtyard gate not smeared with black blood.

The gate was painted pink with cheap paint, and above the door were three crooked pink letters.

Nest.

In a town full of black blood, this was indeed the only untainted land.

The handwriting of those three letters was sloppy.

The character for "Nest" was even missing a stroke, not sure if it was a typo or if the person really didn’t know how to write it.

"This handwriting is no good, clearly not a model student."

Bai Zhengxuan shook his head slightly as he looked at the crooked letters on the door.

As a teacher, he preferred good students, and seeing such bad handwriting made him only want to serve with a cane.

"Those who can go out and abduct girls, how can they be good students!"

Wang Yiyun’s eyes darkened as she looked at the pink door.

She couldn’t tolerate scum who disrespected women at all.

This was tied to her own childhood experiences; having endured too much hardship because she was a girl, she couldn’t bear to see girls suffer pain or discrimination because of their gender.

She spoiled Xiao Niu to the core, not just because of her childhood experiences, but because Xiao Niu was her first child.

Because of Xiao Niu, she couldn’t understand parents who despised their own daughters.

She couldn’t understand why a sweet girl would be disliked just because she was a girl.

Even through a protective suit, Liu Jing could feel the low pressure emanating from Wang Yiyun, and she gently patted her shoulder in comfort.

The daughter-in-law and mother-in-law both dealt with bodies, so they understood each other more.

The bolder a person was, the more fragile they were when they broke.

"Boom, boom, boom!"

Liu Jing stepped forward with a calm face and knocked hard on the gate.

Charging in recklessly without understanding the situation, they needed to be discreet for a few minutes first to understand the girls’ situation.

The knocking sound was drowned out by the deafening rock music, like a stone sinking into the sea.

No one came to open the door.

"Boom, boom, boom!"

Liu Jing knocked a few more times, and the pink door shook violently, on the verge of collapse.

But still, no one opened the door.

The rock music was too loud.

"Mom, let me!"

Wang Yiyun calmly pulled Liu Jing aside and gave the door a hard kick.

"Bang!"

A loud sound rang out, but the door remained unmoved.

It didn’t attract any attention inside. Compared to the rock music, the sound was negligible.

The pink door was barricaded from inside, making it hard to kick open.

"Let me!"

Bai Anhai stepped forward and kicked it.

After one kick, the foot beneath the protective suit froze slightly.

It hurt~

Felt like it might break.

For the sake of a man’s dignity, Bai Anhai endured it.

A black footprint was left on the pink door.

Other than the muffled sound blending with the rock music, it didn’t create any waves.

"Sis, you do it!"

Bai Yifan couldn’t stand it anymore and retreated a step, giving Bai Xiqin space.

Bai Xiqin stepped forward expressionless, her slender legs turned into small ones by the protective suit.

The two small legs stood straight, Bai Xiqin looked back at the Bai Family, "Ready?"

Once ready, it was time to go in and deal with the scum.

"Ready!"

The Bai Family silently took off their gloves and stuffed them into their suits, drawing out a dagger, always ready for battle.

Bai Yifan quickly adjusted his position, standing in the C position.

A weakling has its own survival method.

Seeing that everyone was ready, Bai Xiqin’s small legs moved.

"Bang!"

Just one kick.

A dull sound accompanied by the sound of the door latch breaking.

The gate opened.
