81: Chapter 81 Reap the Rewards
"Waiting for death... that's not quite right. At the very least... if the sky over Hangzhou collapses, there are tall people to hold it up, right? Since Big Boss Zhou dares to do this, it means he might have a way to deal with it."
Li Jun said slowly.
"In other words, we don't need to worry at all; we just need to hide in the back and watch how things unfold."
Number Three added.
As soon as Number Three said this, the group, who had been terrified, slowly breathed a sigh of relief.
When analyzed this way, it actually made some sense.
Since Lin Zhou dared to do this, he must be confident.
Otherwise, he would be completely pushing himself into a dead end.
Who wants to die?
In this apocalypse, no one wants to die; everyone wants to survive.
Especially for a group like them, who had the best chance of surviving, they were even more afraid of death.
Lin Zhou's vehicle was already Level 3, so he must be afraid of dying too.
In that case, maybe Lin Zhou really did have a way to deal with it.
"Is Big Boss Zhou really that badass? Can he even handle a Tier 4 Strange Monster? Isn't that too strong?"
"The first kill of a Tier 3 Monster, the first kill of an A-rank talent Genius Sniping, and the first kill of that troublesome thing, the Blood-Sun Ghost—just these feats alone are not things an ordinary person can easily achieve. The fact that he accomplished them all by himself shows that he must be very capable."
"Number Three, what do you think Big Boss Zhou's talent level is?"
Number Two asked.
"At least... S-rank!"
Number Three hesitated for a moment before blurting it out.
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone in the vehicle gasped.
Because their leader, Li Jun, only had an A++ talent level, so when they heard S-rank, they were truly shocked.
That was absolutely a heaven-defying talent!
A talent level like that was enough to explain many things.
"But don't be scared! No matter how high the talent is, liking to act alone makes one very prone to suffering losses. And right now, there's a very good opportunity."
Number Three continued.
"What opportunity?"
"Since Big Boss Zhou angered it, the big guy that hatches will naturally go after Big Boss Zhou first. Once they start fighting, regardless of the outcome, both sides will surely end up suffering heavy losses. By then, we can sit back and reap the benefits!"
"That Level 3 armored rv and the rewards dropped by the Tier 4 Strange Monster will definitely make our hands numb from counting the loot!"
Number Three said, unable to contain his excitement.
When these words were spoken, everyone in the vehicle became excited.
"Number Three is absolutely right. We'll just wait here; once they start fighting, we'll go in to clean up. Without wasting a single soldier or a single blow, we can reap such a huge benefit. By then, wouldn't our Commander Jun be able to rise directly to first place on the Zombie Killing Rankings?"
"Badass, so badass! Just thinking about it is badass! That would be so awesome!"
Number Two, in the driver's seat, couldn't help but exclaim excitedly.
"It really is awesome..."
"Right? You think it's awesome too... Holy shit, you... you... you... are you human or a ghost?"
Number Two had just wanted to answer when he suddenly realized the voice sounded wrong.
Not only was the voice wrong, but the direction it came from was also wrong.
He turned his head and saw a face appear at the side window, though he didn't know when it had appeared.
Although it was quite handsome and wore a smile.
But this sudden appearance almost scared his soul out of his body.
"You are the owner of that Level 3 armored rv, Big Boss Zhou!"
Li Jun, who was on the side, immediately reacted and signaled his underlings to calm down. He took a deep breath and spoke slowly to the suddenly appearing Lin Zhou.
Lin Zhou's sudden appearance had also given him quite a start.
Even though he had forced himself to calm down, his heart was still trembling.
This sudden appearance was truly terrifying.
"If you say so... then I am! However... I'm not as badass as you say. I don't have the ability to deal with a Tier 4 Strange Monster."
Lin Zhou grinned.
When these words were spoken, everyone's expression changed.
The first thing that shocked them was Lin Zhou's age; he was surprisingly young.
To be so young and yet have such schemes and methods, twisting Red Rose and One-Eyed Dragon around his finger.
Just what kind of heaven-defying monster was he?
Of course, what shocked them even more was the last half of his sentence.
This half-sentence made them realize something was wrong, and even their heels felt a little cold.
"Big Boss Zhou, you... what do you mean by that?"
Li Jun took a deep breath and asked, narrowing his eyes.
"It doesn't mean anything! I just think it's quite unkind of you to watch the show here. We are all from Hangzhou, all from the same city, and we are all survivors. Since we are all survivors, we should unite instead of acting like rats here."
"Commander Jun, don't you think what I said makes sense?"
Lin Zhou said with a smile.
When these words were said, the corners of everyone's mouths twitched violently.
If it weren't for your crazy actions, would so many of those ghosts have been attracted?
And you want us to help? What a joke!
Besides, they didn't have the strength to deal with so many peak Tier 2 Bone Monsters!
"Big Boss Zhou, you caused this trouble. We have no obligation to help you share the responsibility; you should handle it yourself!"
Li Jun quickly reacted. Losing his composure in front of a kid was not his style.
However, seeing Lin Zhou's unfathomable gaze, he suddenly realized that the young man in front of him was not just a young man.
He was an existence that even he couldn't see through.
Having roamed the world for so many years, what hadn't he seen, what kind of people hadn't he encountered?
Especially when it came to young people, he could tell what kind of person they were at a glance.
But after seeing Lin Zhou, he fell silent.
This young man's eyes seemed to have an impenetrable window that made it impossible for him to see inside.
This resulted in him being completely unable to tell what Lin Zhou was thinking.
This young man was truly not simple.
"Oh, since Commander Jun doesn't like to help others, sorry to bother you. Oh... just a reminder, the guy inside is about to come out. If you leave now, it might... already be too late."
"Oh right, just now I thought Commander Jun was here to help me, so I led a portion of the enemies over. You wouldn't mind, would you?"
Lin Zhou said solemnly.
As his voice fell, the expressions of everyone in the vehicle changed.
They looked up and discovered that the Bone Monsters, which hadn't noticed them before, were now swarming toward them like a beehive.
That scene scared them senseless.
Then, thinking about how Lin Zhou said that guy was about to hatch and that they couldn't escape, they felt even more desperate.
They turned their heads to look, but Lin Zhou's figure had already disappeared.
Everyone... was dumbfounded!
