Not long after she left, in front of a food section, Xiao Jin bumped into a group of four male survivors. They were pushing a shopping cart and frantically loading things into it.
Most of them were instant noodles, biscuits, bottled water, and the like.
Xiao Jin didn't try to keep a low profile when she ran over, so she was naturally spotted by the four people.
At first, the four of them were like startled birds. Upon hearing the sound, they jumped high into the air, then dropped the supplies they were holding and let them roll to the ground.
Immediately afterwards, they gripped their weapons tightly with both hands and looked around warily.
"Ahhh, don't come near me!"
The middle-aged man on the far left reacted the most. Before he could even turn around, he grabbed a watermelon knife and started wildly slashing at his surroundings, almost hitting his companion next to him.
Who would have thought that as soon as he shouted, he saw Xiao Jin, and his pale face immediately turned blue and purple.
Xiao Jin: "..."
"Who are you? This is our territory, get out of here!"
His companion, clutching his nearly dislocated kidney, breathed a sigh of relief upon realizing it wasn't a snow beast, and sternly rebuked him.
Seeing that Xiao Jin seemed to want to continue walking forward, the other party frowned and revealed a fierce expression: "Let me tell you, all the supplies here belong to us. If you dare to steal even one, I'll disarm you!"
At the same time, the middle-aged man's shout attracted the attention of others around him.
Someone shouted from afar, "What's going on? Is there a monster?"
"Damn, where's the monster?"
Before long, a dozen or so young men armed with weapons surrounded her. Upon seeing Xiao Jin, they seemed to realize something and approached her with furious expressions.
One of the shorter men cursed, "Damn it, didn't I tell you to guard the door? How did someone manage to sneak in?"
A voice from behind said aggrievedly, "I've been standing at the door the whole time, and I haven't seen anyone come in. Who knows where she came from?"
"Then tell me I'm blind! This isn't a human, it's a damn ghost!" The short man pointed at Xiao Jin and kicked one of the men in the stomach.
He then turned around, grabbed a watermelon knife, and almost pressed the tip against Xiao Jin's face.
"Kid, this is our Dragon Tiger Gang's territory. All supplies are under the control of the Dragon Tiger Gang. No one other than a member is allowed to approach."
"Dragon Tiger Gang!" Xiao Jin looked at him like he was an idiot. This is the apocalypse, do you think you're playing a game of conquest?
He immediately asked, "Do you know if there are shelters on Prison Island?"
The mention of the shelter only fueled the man's anger.
"Damn it, what kind of idiot shelter is this? Not only did they abandon me, but they also took so many supplies. This is the apocalypse, don't they know that the supplies belong to all of us survivors? How dare they just take them away like that!"
"Exactly! They clearly have guns; taking us away would have been a simple matter of a word, but they insisted there were too many people!"
"A bunch of heartless idiots, they'll be devoured by monsters sooner or later..."
"..."
Hearing these curses, Xiao Jin remained expressionless, but her eyes grew colder, looking at the group of people in front of her as if they were already dead.
The short man didn't want to get entangled with Xiao Jin any longer. They had gone to great lengths to find such a resource-rich place, and three of them had even died along the way.
"Alright, since you don't want to leave, then die here. It just so happens that we're short of bait when we go back."
The short man grinned maliciously as he reached out to stab Xiao Jin.
Below, a baseball bat slammed down on Xiao Jin's knee, seemingly trying to incapacitate her.
Xiao Jin's eyes sharpened. The watermelon knife in front of her seemed incredibly slow to her. She stretched out one hand and easily grabbed the short man's wrist.
At the same time, he kicked the man holding the baseball bat away, and twisted his arm forcefully, while the short man looked terrified.
"Aaaaaah!!!"
Screams echoed around them as the short man's arm twisted to the side in an unbelievable arc. The man Xiao Jin kicked slammed heavily against the shelf behind him and was instantly buried under the goods.
"You...Big Brother!"
Those nearby screamed in terror, wanting to retaliate, but fearing Xiao Jin's methods.
"Ha~" Xiao Jin scoffed, "Trash!"
"you……"
Someone gritted their teeth and said, "Hey, I'm warning you, we have many brothers upstairs. If you know what's good for you, release my brother right now!"
If he hadn't been retreating while saying it, Xiao Jin might have actually believed him.
Xiao Jin: "Fine, I'll wait and see if they come down first, or if I'll kill you all first."
A bunch of idiots, what the hell did you go to this shelter for? You'd all be feeding the snow beasts!
Xiao Jin narrowed her eyes. She despised people who would curse others while eating their rice bowl. Cheng Ce was right not to take them! She didn't care about losing a few lives, so she might as well kill them all!
The short man was in so much pain he was almost unconscious, and only managed to utter a single, instinctive cry: "Quick...help me, kill...kill her..."
His henchmen all twitched at the corner of their mouths. Kill? How?
Xiao Jin dropped the man in his hand, and a long knife instantly appeared in his hand. His arm sank down, and in an instant, the tip of the knife had already pierced the back of the short man's head.
"Pfft!"
Xiao Jin coldly drew the Shattered Shadow: "I hate it when people point at me."
Immediately afterwards, Xiao Jin walked step by step toward the crowd in front of her.
To be honest, even though it was Xiao Jin who was surrounded, the scene looked as if they were the ones being surrounded by Xiao Jin!
The underlings looked terrified, and screams were on the verge of bursting from their mouths.
But then something unexpected happened.
Before Xiao Jin could make a move, a series of hurried footsteps suddenly rang out, followed by a blood-covered man tumbling in, instantly shattering the surrounding tranquility.
"Big brother, big brother!! A monster is coming, a huge monster!"
Everyone looked over and were shocked by what they saw.
The man's face was as white as a ghost, his hair was wet, his tattered clothes were barely hanging on his body, and he only had one ear left on his head.
The bloodstains beside his ear ran down his cheek and soaked into the clothes on his shoulder.
At the same time, the moment the person entered, Xiao Jin's expression suddenly turned serious, as if she had heard something.
Her ears twitched, her body arched slightly, and her eyes fell on the man's back.
"Old Xing, what did you say?" the Dragon Tiger Gang member asked instinctively.
The other person pounced on the ground like a madman, screaming and crawling, leaving a long trail of blood on the ground.
"Big monster! It's coming! It's coming up! Quick...run!"
No sooner had he said that than Old Xing collapsed to the ground and fell silent.
