There are indeed people who are not afraid of death.

They had already witnessed the accuracy of Li Yu's archery, yet some people were still reckless and chose to continue testing the waters in the pitch-black night.

Now that they had witnessed Li Yu kill two people with just two arrows, they were even more impressed by his superb archery skills.

In such a dark environment, he was still able to kill with a single arrow. They simply couldn't believe that Li Yu didn't have supernatural abilities.

Fu Xiyao was awakened from her sleep by the noise. She immediately picked up her weapon and stood up, her face full of vigilance.

Taking advantage of Fu Xiyao's lucidity, Li Yu stepped forward and retrieved the arrow he had shot.

With a forceful pull, Li Yu returned to Fu Xiyao's side.

He would always aim for the opponent's chest when shooting, because it made it easier to control the force of his arrows that way.

If the arrow pierces his neck, he will likely need to spend even more time searching for the arrow.

If it hits the head, it will get stuck in the skull, making it difficult to pull out.

The chest, on the other hand, is completely different. It can hit the heart and kill instantly, but it is not easy to pierce the chest and lose the arrow. It is also relatively easy and convenient to retrieve the arrow.

For Li Yu now, aiming at the chest and shooting is killing three birds with one stone, since arrows are still extremely precious.

As the sky gradually brightened, Fu Xiyao's vision became clearer, allowing her to see her surroundings clearly.

So she stood up and said to Li Yu, who was sitting cross-legged with her eyes closed, "Li Yu, you should rest for a bit. Let me take over for you for a while."

Upon hearing this, Li Yu did not refuse, but earnestly instructed, "If anyone gets close, wake me up immediately."

"Mm." Fu Xiyao nodded.

Then, Li Yu found a comfortable position and lay down.

After an unknown amount of time, Li Yu was suddenly awakened by the noisy commotion around her.

When I woke up, I saw that the group of scavengers who had gathered nearby were packing their things and seemed to be preparing to set off.

Seeing this, Fu Xiyao also started tidying up.

Suddenly a commotion arose in the distance. Li Yu looked up and saw a large group of people slowly passing by the gathering place.

Everyone in the group was wearing the same style of raincoat, making them very easy to identify.

At the front of the procession, several men on horseback led the way, their weapons gripped tightly in their hands.

In the middle, several horses were pulling an iron box, and there were people guarding the box at all times. Inside the box sat what appeared to be a very important person of high status.

People were carefully escorting the procession from both sides.

There were also horse-drawn carriages carrying a large amount of goods behind them.

Whether it was the person leading the horse or the guards standing by, everyone in the group looked very healthy, far better off than the ragged refugees.

Looking at the group of refugees gathered here, even the awakened ones were wearing tattered clothes and shoes.

Most people don't even have a decent waterproof tarpaulin.

"That's... a horse?" Li Yu was so surprised when he saw the situation that he couldn't close his mouth. He had thought that horses were extinct, but he didn't expect that there were still so many.

Fu Xiyao, standing beside her, also widened her eyes: "This is the first time I've ever seen someone ride a horse in person."

She once heard her mother tell a story when she was a child, about someone riding a horse and galloping freely on the vast grassland.

She had never seen a grassland or anyone riding a horse before, and this scene today truly shocked her.

Based on the information he had gathered, Li Yu immediately guessed that they were people from the Black Mountain Safe Zone.

"Could it be that the prophet was right, and a massive rainstorm is really coming?" Li Yu fell into deep thought.

The massive procession marched forward in a grand and imposing manner, and the refugees dared not approach, only daring to watch from afar.

The opponent's strong physique and the dark, unidentified firearms in the guards' hands created a powerful sense of oppression for the refugees.

Although firearms are rare, many scavengers have seen them.

Ma Yuanbai, who was nearby, was not afraid of the huge group at all. Instead, he smirked and complained, "These days, there's not even enough food for people, yet they can still afford to feed so many horses."

As the massive procession heading west gradually disappeared into the distance, many refugees chose to follow, keeping a safe distance.

The scavengers had gathered together with the aim of successfully migrating to the west, and following this large group was clearly a better option.

As time passed, almost all the refugees followed the main group and left the area.

Everyone else had already left, except for Ma Yuanbai's team, whom they had just met last night, who were still dawdling over packing up some jars.

Li Yu led Fu Xiyao toward the center of yesterday's gathering area.

On the way, Li Yu and Ma Yuanbai exchanged a glance and nodded politely to each other.

After arriving at the center of the area where they had gathered the previous night, Li Yu squatted down and examined it carefully. There were no traces of fire.

Li Yu was somewhat disappointed, thinking that yesterday's light source must have just been a glowing object.

Finding nothing, Li Yu took Fu Xiyao and prepared to leave to find food nearby.

"boom!"

Suddenly, a huge explosion came from the direction where the main force had just left.

Li Yu and Ma Yuanbai hurriedly chased after them to check.

As the smoke from the explosion gradually dissipated, the ground was littered with scattered chunks of flesh, and dozens of scavengers had been blown to pieces.
