“…Is anybody there? Please save us!”

Upon hearing the woman’s voice on the car’s intercom, Wang Tao’s brow lifted.

His car’s intercom had always been on, just in case he could pick up other survivors’ communications… He had just been saying to Xu Xiaojun that he didn’t know when they would find other survivors, and now had an opportunity been delivered to his doorstep?

However, the other party was asking for help, which obviously meant they were in great danger. In such an unfamiliar place, Wang Tao had to be cautious. The vast Zijing City was definitely more dangerous than any place he had been before.

Xu Xiaojun slowly pulled the car over to the side of the road, and he and Jiang Shixue both looked towards Wang Tao.

Wang Tao pressed the talk button on the intercom, his tone steady as he spoke:

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})

“Who are you? Where are you? What danger have you encountered?”

“Who are you…”

Wang Tao repeated several times, and after a moment.

“Szzz… Ah? Someone! There really is someone!”

Although she tried to keep her voice down on the other end, it was noticeable that she was very surprised.

“My name is Nie Siyan, and we’re surrounded by a bunch of bad guys! They want to kill us! Help!”

The voice over the intercom was panicked.

“Hmm? You’re saying… people? Survivors? You’re surrounded by survivors?”

Wang Tao’s brows furrowed.

He had thought that these people were surrounded by zombies… If it was a fight between survivors, that would be more complicated.

“Yes! Outside are a bunch of heartless murderers! Big Brother, can you come save us? If they break through, we’re all dead!”

Listening to the other party’s anxious words, Wang Tao calmly said:

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})

“Tell me the specifics of the situation.”

“Alright…

After a brief explanation from the other end, Wang Tao roughly understood what had happened.

According to this Nie Siyan, they were currently at a place called the “Haochen Hotel,” where there were still 11 people.

They had been gathering supplies outside yesterday and took shelter in the hotel last night. But unexpectedly, a group of survivors had broken into the hotel.

These people were extremely vicious and powerful, and they had taken over their place by force, wanting to capture them as slaves. Outmatched, they could only run upstairs.

They were now hiding on the tenth floor, and all stairways leading up had been blocked, preventing the gang of villains from reaching them for the time being.

But in their haste to escape earlier, they had left the food downstairs, and now all the food was commandeered by the villains. The hotel had been scavenged long ago, and there was no food upstairs, leaving them dizzy from hunger.

Meanwhile, the villains downstairs continued to threaten and entice them. They said there were two choices for them: either come down obediently, admit their wrongdoings, and let bygones be bygones, or stay upstairs until they starved to death…

Of course, no one believed them, because Nie Siyan had witnessed with her own eyes the merciless killing of their companions by the gang downstairs!

If they dared to go down, they would surely die! And before death, they would endure all kinds of inhumane torture!

Having no other options, they could only seek help through the intercom. They had tried for a long time, and Wang Tao was the first person they could contact.

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})

“Big Brother, please, save us! We don’t want to die! We’ll repay you with gratitude! We will definitely repay your kindness!”

No sooner had the woman finished speaking than other people’s voices began to chime in.

“Please, Big Brother, save us! We’ll do anything for you!”

“I have a lot of food at home, and I’ll give it all to you, Big Brother!”

“I know many influential people in the base, I’ll introduce all of them to you, Big Brother!”

“I have a beautiful wife at home…”

“…”

Listening to the cacophony of pleas from the other side, Wang Tao selectively filtered them out.

He only picked up on one key point — there indeed was a Survivor Base here, and it seemed not a small one…

Wang Tao thought for a moment and then asked:

“What are your capabilities? And what about the capabilities of those gangsters?”

“We’re all Level 1 ability users, but there’s a Second-order Superpower Owner among those gangsters!”

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})

Nie Siyan quickly replied.

“Level Two Ability User? Then I’m sorry, I can’t beat them.”

Wang Tao’s tone carried a hint of difficulty.

Even though he didn’t mind helping other survivors, everything currently was based on Nie Siyan’s side of the story. Having seen more than his share of deceit, especially in this post-apocalyptic era, Wang Tao, despite his considerable strength, still had to be cautious. At the very least, he couldn’t show all his cards.

So he decided to pretend to be a Level 1 ability user for now and see what their reaction would be.

There was a moment of silence on the other end, and then Nie Siyan’s voice came through again.

“Big Brother, you don’t have to beat them! You just need to draw them away! We’ve placed some supplies in a convenience store nearby, which have food and Crystal Cores, and among these supplies is a Homemade Bomb! I will tell you how to detonate it, and you just need to set off the bomb to get their attention! Just give us a minute — no, just thirty seconds, and we’ll be able to escape on our own!”

Hmm? A Homemade Bomb?

Wang Tao was surprised; he hadn’t seen such things in a long time.

And… detonate a Homemade Bomb? Was she serious? If that thing went off, it wouldn’t be just the villains it’d draw out but hordes of zombies as well!

His current “identity” was that of an “ordinary Level 1 ability user” — was this something a person concerned about their own life should consider doing?

And Nie Siyan seemed to know Wang Tao’s concerns as she hurriedly spoke up again:

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})
