"Ye Lei, you..."
Zheng Jianguo witnessed his son turn into a zombie right in front of him, and he was so angry that he couldn't speak.
"Don't you have the Witcher's invisibility potion? Let me show you my invisibility Corpse King."
Ye Lei said dismissively.
"Ye Lei, I'll fight you to the death!"
Overwhelmed with excitement, Zheng Jianguo forgot about his family members behind him and lunged forward menacingly. However, he was stopped by something—none other than Zheng Kai, who had already turned into a zombie.
"Kayle, what are you doing?"
Zheng Jianguo looked at Zheng Kai, who had his mouth agape, and asked incredulously.
"That's your son, what do you think he's going to do?"
Before Ye Lei could finish speaking, Zheng Kai bit down on Zheng Jianguo's neck.
The two men who dared to kidnap Ye Lei's woman turned into zombies in an instant. Ye Lei felt that this scene was familiar. Yes! It happened once when he was collecting supplies not long after the apocalypse broke out.
Ye Lei took out a submachine gun from his spatial storage and fired "rat-a-tat-tat..." The Zheng father and son were now completely dead, their disgusting yellow fluid flowing all over the ground.
Do you want to live?
Ye Lei raised his submachine gun and shouted at the Zheng family members who were stunned behind him.
"think"
"I want to live."
"Hero, spare my life!"
"We're just trying to make a living."
…………
Everyone realized what was happening and cried out for mercy.
"Then why don't you throw away what you're holding?"
The Zheng family then remembered that some of them were still carrying submachine guns, but unfortunately, they were leaderless, and their leader was dead.
"good"
"Okay, okay, okay."
"I'll throw it away now."
"Crackling sounds..." Several submachine guns were thrown on the ground. Ye Lei waved his hand and put them all into his spatial storage. The sudden disappearance of the submachine guns left the Zheng family dumbfounded.
"Brother Lei, have you thought of a better way?"
Ma Jing and Sarah arrived sometime earlier and asked.
"Hehe... That's right, with so many readily available laborers, we can let them handle things like dismantling the solar panels."
Ye Lei laughed and said that Ye Lei had already planned it all along. As long as the Zheng father and son were gone, wouldn't he be the one to call the shots?
"Let's go to the back of the villa."
Ye Lei drove the crowd toward the solar panels, much like a slave society where slave owners drive slaves to work.
When Ye Lei arrived at the hillside behind the villa, he discovered that there were quite a few solar panels, more than a thousand in total. If he were to have a few people dismantle them, he didn't know how long it would take.
"Come on, everyone, come here, pick up your tools, take down these solar panels, stack them neatly, and then you can leave."
Ye Lei took out many tools he had collected in the past from his space. He originally thought they were useless, but he didn't expect them to come in handy here.
"Hero, you keep your word? You won't lie to us, will you?"
"That's right, if you don't want us to live, kill us now."
"Since we're going to meet the King of Hell anyway, and we still have to work, we might as well be a carefree little devil."
…………
It seems these people don't believe Ye Lei will let them go.
"Looks like none of you want to live anymore? Fine, those who don't want to work and want to die, stand aside."
Ye Lei shouted sternly, but after a long while, no one stepped forward. Who wanted to die?
"Since none of you want to die, then get to work. There are so many solar panels, divide them up, and whoever finishes first can leave!"
But there was still no movement. These people from the Zheng family had never done such physical labor before!
"Anyone willing to work can come and get food, and there's also bottled water!"
Seeing that none of these people were moving, Ye Lei realized that he had no choice but to feed them. He took out some bread and purified water from his spatial storage and piled them in front of him. Fortunately, his spatial storage had the function of stopping time, otherwise the bread would have gone moldy long ago.
"Oh my god, am I seeing things? Is that bread?"
"It seems so. It's been so long since I've seen it. I've even forgotten what it tastes like."
"What should we do? We have all this good food, let's get to it!"
"Damn it, even if we die, we have to eat our fill first."
"That's right, I heard that starving ghosts have a terrible time."
"Then what are we waiting for? Let's go get the tools, bread, and bottled water!"
…………
The crowd finally began to stir, and who could resist the temptation of food? Especially sweet and delicious bread.
"If you want something to eat, come and get it. Each person gets a piece of bread and a bottle of water. There will be more if you finish eating."
Ye Lei was worried that these people would swarm and snatch the food, so he warned them.
"Okay, I'll do it!"
At this moment, someone took the lead and came out. He picked up tools, bread, and purified water, and then went under the solar panels to start working.
Inspired by him, others followed suit. No one could resist the temptation of food, because they knew that the feeling of hunger was worse than death.
Ye Lei easily took out a parasol from his space, found a flat spot to put it in place, and then took out a comfortable recliner and placed it under the parasol. Not only that, he also set up a small table with some drinks and beer.
Of course, he did not overlook Zhao Meili, Ma Jing, and Sarah, who came with him.
The four of them lay leisurely on deck chairs, watching the Zheng family members work hard under the scorching sun. If anyone dared to slack off or try to cheat, a burst of bullets fired at them would scare the others into working tirelessly.
In the sweltering heat, the Zheng family members were drenched in sweat, but dared not relax for a moment. Meanwhile, Ye Lei and the others enjoyed the cool shade, drinking beverages and chatting happily. They would occasionally glance at the busy Zheng family members, their hearts filled with satisfaction.
"Doesn't this feel amazing?"
Ye Lei said with a smile.
"That's for sure, but I have a feeling that this is a slave society."
"This is much better than slave society. At least they have food, and they can leave after they finish their work."
"Yes, I'm only now experiencing what it's like to be a slave owner, and it's actually really great."
"That's just human vanity; people like that feeling of being high and mighty."
"This is much more enjoyable than killing all day long."
"In my next life, I want to be reborn into a slave society and be a slave owner for life."
"You'd better not be reborn as a slave, that would be terrible."
"No, no, haha..."
"That's hard to say, haha..."
"Ha ha……"
…………
The four of them chatted and laughed, adding a touch of carefree ease to the sweltering heat. Even Xiuxiu and Honghaier, who were playing on the ground, felt happier than ever before.
