Chapter 45: The Third Monster, Feeds on Three or Four People! (Please keep reading)

Lu Zheng noticed that the eyes of these three men were not quite normal.

It was as if greedy jackals had spotted their prey.

He spoke directly:

"We're not here for refuge; we're looking for someone. Who's in charge here? Is Security Officer Mao Song around?"

Upon hearing the name Mao Song, one of the men's expressions subtly changed.

"Please follow me, everyone. Wait a moment; I'll go get the person in charge."

Lu Zheng nodded, and the four were led into a room.

It looked like a normal room, with nothing out of the ordinary.

A few minutes later, a man brought four cups of water. Ordinary paper cups, nothing unusual.

"Please drink some water. The person in charge is busy and will be a while before he can come."

Lu Zheng waved his hand.

"We're not thirsty. Is Security Officer Mao Song here? If he's not, we'll leave."

Hearing him say they would leave, the man immediately said anxiously:

"No, our person in charge is coming right over. Please wait a little longer."

Zhang Ningzhu had already sensed something was wrong. The bullet in her pocket was already out, circling at her feet, ready to be fired at any moment.

Just then, a loud laugh echoed.

"Haha, how can you just leave after coming all this way!"

"At the very least, you must eat something and stay the night!"

Before his voice faded, a middle-aged man with a unibrow and a buzz cut walked out.

He was wearing a security officer's uniform, but Lu Zheng felt that this guy should be someone who was locked up inside.

"I'm looking for Mao Song. Do you know him?"

Lu Zheng asked indifferently.

Sun Xiaonan narrowed his eyes, seeing Lu Zheng's confident demeanor.

The three women beside Lu Zheng were all clean and dressed in neat clothes, a clear contrast to those struggling in this apocalypse.

Moreover, they had come from another place to find someone, clearly indicating they had some backing.

Sun Xiaonan laughed heartily:

"Mao Song, I know him, my colleague. But he was injured yesterday and is now unconscious, needing rest and not to be disturbed."

"If you want to see him, you'll have to wait until tomorrow."

"Brother, you're an ability user, aren't you? How strong are you? We have a very powerful monster here that has eaten many of our people. If you're strong enough, we can deal with that guy together."

He was clearly trying to change the subject, but Lu Zheng was indeed interested in this question.

"What kind of monster? Not a Scythe Mantis or a Double-Tailed Scorpion?"

Sun Xiaonan's smile faded, and he said with some solemnity:

"No, it's a giant worm, about fifteen meters long. It can emit a dizzying sound wave, emerging from underground and swallowing three or four people in one bite."

"That thing suddenly appeared the day before yesterday afternoon; it's terrifying."

"Fortunately, after it eats three or four people, it retreats underground and only reappears after half a day."

Lu Zheng's gaze sharpened.

It was indeed a new monster, which meant new crystals. Far from being afraid, he was somewhat excited.

"Then why don't you leave here?"

Sun Xiaonan sighed.

"How can we leave? With so many people together, it's likely to attract a large number of bugs. There's no way to leave."

Zhang Ningzhu suddenly interjected:

"So you feed that worm three or four people every half day?"

Sun Xiaonan froze for a moment, then quickly reacted and burst out laughing.

"This young lady is joking. We are security officers; how could we disregard human life?"

"You must be very tired from your journey. I'll arrange accommodation and food and drink for you. Rest well for a day, and after I take you to see Mao Song tomorrow, we'll figure out a way to deal with that worm together."

Lu Zheng said coldly:

"Either bring Mao Song, or you die."

"Don't waste my time."

Such an attitude immediately made Sun Xiaonan's face turn incredibly grim.

"Heh heh, brother, don't think you're so great just because you have an ability."

"Within seven steps, a gun is accurate and fast!"

The next moment, Lu Zheng aimed his gun at his head.

"You're right. How about we try it out? Whose gun is faster, yours or mine?"

Seeing a gun appear out of thin air in Lu Zheng's hand, Sun Xiaonan was completely stunned.

And while he was momentarily dazed, the gun at his waist suddenly flew into Zhang Ningzhu's hand.

After Zhang Ningzhu's gravity ability advanced to the second tier, her gravitational force increased from one hundred grams to one thousand grams. After absorbing two second-tier crystals, it now reached two thousand grams.

A loaded pistol weighs only nine hundred forty grams, so she easily pulled it out with her gravity.

Seeing his own gun also fall into the opponent's hand, Sun Xiaonan quickly raised both hands.

He made this gesture as if by muscle memory, appearing incredibly skilled.

"Gentlemen, don't be impulsive, don't shoot. I am a security officer; what you're doing is illegal."

Hearing his voice, several people outside gathered around.

Seeing Lu Zheng and the others pointing guns at Sun Xiaonan, they were all dumbfounded.

How was this different from the original script!

'Bang!'

Lu Zheng directly shot a bloody hole in one of Sun Xiaonan's legs, making him scream in pain.

His subordinates immediately panicked, pulling out their weapons—guns, clubs, and knives—and pointing them at Lu Zheng.

Lu Zheng sneered.

"I'll count to ten. If Mao Song doesn't appear, I'll kill you."

Sun Xiaonan knew he had run into a ruthless person and quickly said:

"No, brother, Mao Song is already dead."

"He was eaten by that monster."

"Let's discuss this properly, don't shoot."

Xiong Jiner immediately asked excitedly:

"What about the others? Where are the others Mao Song brought? Are they still alive?"

Sun Xiaonan responded repeatedly:

"The others are still alive. I'll take you to see them. Can you help me stop the bleeding first?"

Lu Zheng gestured to Zheng Jingyi.

The latter stepped forward, raised a hand, and a white light flashed. Sun Xiaonan's wound healed.

Sun Xiaonan watched this scene in horror.

Then, remembering something, he asked:

"Um, did you forget to take the bullet out?"

Lu Zheng smiled and said:

"Then should I shoot again to reopen your wound?"

Sun Xiaonan shivered and quickly shook his head.

"No, no, please follow me, all four of you. I'll take you to meet those people."

Saying that, he turned around, took a few quick steps, came to a subordinate's side, then suddenly hid behind the subordinate, snatched the gun from his hand, and aimed it at Lu Zheng.

"Kid, you've got something, but this is my territory. Even a dragon has to coil here."

Before he finished speaking, his eyes were filled with terror.

Because Lu Zheng opposite him had already pulled out an assault rifle and unhesitatingly pulled the trigger, unleashing a burst of gunfire.

Before Sun Xiaonan could react, his head had already exploded.

Soon, everyone holding a gun was dead, leaving only one person who had been holding a knife and hiding in the corner.

Lu Zheng walked up and kicked him.

"If you don't want to die, take me to see the people Mao Song brought."
