At this moment, Yu Bin stood up, propped himself up with his machete, and looked at the group with a sly smile.

Old Zhang and Fatty couldn't help but take a few steps back.

Wang Lan and Sun Muchen looked at Yu Bin.

"That mosquito of yours?" Wang Lan gripped the Golden Umbrella, pulling Sun Muchen behind her. "You kept that? You have this kind of fetish?"

"A fetish?" Yu Bin shrugged, neither confirming nor denying. "This mosquito is from outside the safe zone. I discovered a highly contagious virus in the safe zone a long time ago, but this virus is strange. It only infects creatures within the safe zone and does not affect creatures outside the safe zone."

"Highly contagious?" Sun Muchen shook his head and said, "I don't agree. Compared to viruses like the common cold that can be spread through the air, this virus is far less contagious because it spreads through biting."

"Stop arguing with me!" Yu Bin shouted impatiently, then continued, "Based on the characteristics of this virus, it's easy to deduce that it's related to the Final Fortress, because only they have the laboratory to manufacture this thing. Furthermore, I discovered that regardless of the type of infected person, their blood will coagulate, and even the initial mutations all start from the blood. So I caught a mosquito. After all, what creature would be more drawn to blood than a mosquito?"

"flea!"

"And leeches!"

Wang Lan and Sun Muchen, one after the other, chimed in, "These two things are even more eager to suck blood than mosquitoes!"

Veins bulged on Yu Bin's forehead. "These two things are now five or six meters tall. How am I supposed to catch them!"

Wang Lan rolled her eyes at him. "What's your purpose in keeping this thing?"

Yu Bin sneered, “You fools have never seen the scenery outside the border wall. What humans call mutation is actually the evolution of other animals. They have intelligence that is more intelligent than humans and a more developed brain. As long as I give them human blood, they will be used by me. The emergence of the infectious virus means that the fortress has abandoned the outside world, and I can dominate the final fortress through the animal army I have cultivated!”

"Wang...Wang Lan," Old Zhang said tremulously, "There's...there's a big spider outside..."

Upon hearing this, Sun Muchen immediately ran over.

She peeked out and saw a gigantic spider on the market street. Its eight legs were incredibly long, and it was spitting out silk to wrap the infected into white cocoons. Then, the mosquito's mouthparts were inserted into the cocoons, and the cocoons quickly dried up. The spider then unraveled the cocoons and ate the dried-up corpses inside.

This coordination is truly seamless.

With infected people arriving one after another, spiders and mosquitoes seemed to have arrived in a self-help paradise.

Sun Muchen felt nauseous at the sight, suppressing the urge to vomit, his skin crawling with goosebumps, and nodded to Wang Lan.

Yu Bin laughed and said, "I've discovered that feeding on living people allows them to grow and evolve much better than these rotting infected. Once they're full, we'll head to the final fortress, where there will be even more abundant resources."

“Then go ahead,” Wang Lan said. “We’ll part ways here. You go your way, and we’ll go ours.”

“That won’t do…” Yu Bin shook his head. “My adorable little pet was just too hungry, which is why it drained three people in a row. Actually, I originally planned for all of you to die in my adorable pet’s mouth, but the successive waves of infected interrupted my plan, leaving only a few of you now. However, there’s a saying before the mutation: even a small fly is still meat…”

Have you ever eaten a fly?

He was interrupted halfway through his sentence by Wang Lan, who asked, "What do flies taste like?"

"I've never eaten it."

"Then how do you know how much meat a fly has?"

"I..." Yu Bin was speechless for a moment, but then he suddenly noticed out of the corner of his eye that Sun Muchen, Lao Zhang, and Fatty had disappeared. He realized, "You brat, you were trying to get my attention!"

"Uh...you found out..."

Wang Lan had suspected something was wrong with Yu Bin from the beginning, and now she finally had the answer.

Whether it's forming a hunter group or taking hunters to the market, the real purpose is to let mosquitoes and spiders eat the hunters, which also proves why Yu Bin cares so much about the lives of others.

When Yu Bin told the truth, Wang Lan knew something was wrong. When he shed his guise as a benevolent person and revealed his true purpose, that was the moment danger struck.

So Wang Lan secretly gave Sun Muchen a wink, telling them to run away first, while she stayed behind to hold off Yu Bin.

At this moment, Sun Muchen and his group had already run to the outside of an alley.

Old Zhang said in a panic, "I knew it! What hunter would be so kind as to save someone? Perverts are the essence of this era!"

"You're talking nonsense! When did you say that?" The fat man was panting heavily, but he had only run a short distance before he was drenched in sweat and feeling dizzy.

Old Zhang retorted, "I knew they were unreliable all along!"

"Pah!" Sun Muchen spat. "You know he's unreliable, yet you still told him how to make the bomb!"

"Who said I told him?" Old Zhang said, "There's one more crucial thing in the recipe that I haven't told you yet!"

He was speaking with a relieved smile on his lips when suddenly a loud crash came from a house to the side. The group happened to be passing through an alley when they saw Yu Bin grabbing Wang Lan by the neck, who was covered in injuries, smashing open the wall of a house, and pinning Wang Lan to the ground.

This scene left Sun Muchen and the others completely stunned.

This was the first time they had ever seen Wang Lan so disheveled!

Yu Bin's strength was truly formidable; he was worthy of being called the strongest hunter. The moment Wang Lan clashed with him, the difference in their abilities was immediately apparent. Wang Lan was instantly overwhelmed by Yu Bin and didn't even have the strength to fight back.

"Be good, my pets are the weapons to breach the final fortress. As the weak, you might as well offer your lives to help me."

As he spoke, Yu Bin easily lifted Wang Lan up, then looked at Sun Muchen and the others, grinning maliciously, and said, "Don't be in such a hurry."

After saying that, the arm gripping Wang Lan's neck began to tighten.

"A person's blood doesn't coagulate immediately after death. Although it's not as coagulated as a living person's, my pets won't mind. After all, they're too hungry, and the flesh of infected people is unpalatable. I have to take care of them..."

Bang!

A loud gunshot suddenly rang out.

Wang Lan's mind went blank as he was being choked, but he suddenly realized that as the gunshot rang out, Yu Bin's grip on his neck began to loosen.

He looked at Yu Bin.

Yu Bin looked utterly astonished, and red and white liquid oozed from his temples, flowing down his cheeks.

Yu Bin was shot and killed by Sun Muchen, who hit him squarely in the head.

Old Zhang and Fatty stared in surprise at the gun in Sun Muchen's hand.

"elder brother!"

She ran over, pushed Yu Bin's body aside, and helped Wang Lan to her feet.
