Chapter 53: Contradictions and Contradictions: The Dawn of a Turnaround



Mou Xuan frowned. The sudden noise was like a needle piercing the already tense atmosphere.

He motioned for the Xin refugee representative to follow him, and the two walked quickly to the door.

"Oh my god! What's going on?" Mou Xuan couldn't help but swear.

What came into view was a group of staggering zombies. They staggered and were slowly approaching this side like controlled puppets.

The rotting skin exudes a foul stench, and the empty eye sockets are filled with endless greed.

They roared, and saliva dripped onto the ground, making a "sizzling" corrosive sound.

The air was filled with a sickening smell of blood mixed with the stench of rotting flesh, making one's stomach churn.

The scene instantly fell into dead silence, and everyone was stunned by the sudden "surprise" before them.

Merchant Ding's fat body trembled violently, and the shrewdness on his face was instantly replaced by fear. He looked at Soldier Wu tremblingly, and the latter clenched his fists tightly, staring at the approaching zombies, with veins bulging on his forehead.

Doctor Ji was so frightened that his legs went limp and he hid in a corner, trembling as if he was going to faint in the next second.

Technician Geng just stood there in a daze, his proud expression was instantly replaced by fear, and his originally confident look now seemed ridiculous.

The Xin refugee representative was so frightened that his soul was out of his body, his legs went weak and he almost fell to the ground.

According to common sense, at this moment, Mou Xuan should immediately choose to close the door to protect himself and Shen Yao. After all, safety comes first!

However, a playful smile appeared on Mou Xuan's lips.

He did not retreat or seek cover as they expected. Instead, he turned around abruptly, his eyes piercing, and swept over everyone present. He said coldly: "Everyone, this is the consequence of not forming an alliance! This is the result of you fighting on your own and not uniting and cooperating!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the whole audience was in an uproar, and everyone was confused by Mou Xuan's abnormal behavior.

This script is wrong, brother!

Shouldn’t we save our lives first right now?

For a moment, the air seemed to freeze. Everyone was filled with shock, fear, and confusion. All kinds of emotions were intertwined together.

Merchant Ding's fat face turned red and white, Soldier Wu's clenched fists trembled slightly, Doctor Ji even covered his mouth directly, Technician Geng's eyes were full of disbelief, and refugee representative Xin had a look of confusion on his face.

At this moment, Chen Yao's voice sounded, clear and firm, "Mou Xuan, stop talking and close the door first!"

Mou Xuan did not respond to Chen Yao, but stared at everyone, his deep eyes filled with an elusive light.

"roar……"

The roars of the zombies were getting closer and clearer, like the call of the god of death.

The stench of zombies became stronger and stronger, making people sick.

They dragged their broken limbs, staggering but at an astonishing speed, and were about to rush to the door.

The crowd was in a complete uproar, like ants on a hot pan, in a mess.

"Ahhh! Help!" Doctor Ji could no longer hold it in. He let out a scream and collapsed to the ground, his face as pale as paper.

He pointed tremblingly at the approaching zombies and shouted incoherently: "They are coming! They are coming! We are going to die! We are going to die!"

Technician Geng, a technical expert who usually prides himself on being arrogant, no longer cares about his face at this moment.

He rushed behind Mou Xuan like a frightened rabbit, grabbed the corner of his clothes tightly, and said tremblingly: "Boss! Boss! Help! I have old people above me and young children below me, I can't die!" He looked so cowardly, without any trace of his previous arrogance, it was simply a large-scale "I'm so proud of myself" scene.

Merchant Ding was so frightened that his face turned pale, his fat body trembled violently, and cold sweat soaked his clothes, making him look like he had just been pulled out of the water.

He held his purse tightly, his eyes full of despair.

Although Soldier Wu pretended to remain calm, his clenched fists and the bulging veins on his forehead still exposed his inner fear.

He stared at the group of zombies, as if he wanted to stare a hole in them.

The Xin refugee representative looked pale, his lips trembled, and he couldn't even speak.

The air around seemed to freeze, fear spread like a tide, and the heavy atmosphere made it hard to breathe.

At this critical moment, Mou Xuan moved.

His eyes flashed, and a powerful energy wave emanated from him. Time seemed to stand still at this moment.

The zombies' movements suddenly stopped, as if a pause button had been pressed, and they stayed stiffly in place.

Their rotten faces still retained ferocious expressions, and their empty eye sockets seemed to still contain a desire for fresh flesh and blood.

"What the hell! What's going on?" Technician Geng widened his eyes, his face full of disbelief.

Merchant Ding was also stunned. He opened his mouth so wide that it seemed as if an egg could fit in it.

Soldier Wu was so shocked that he was speechless. He had never seen such a magical ability.

The Xin refugee representative stared at the scene blankly, as if he were dreaming.

Even Chen Yao showed a surprised expression. Although she knew that Mou Xuan possessed the ability to control time, she was still shocked to see his powerful strength with her own eyes.

The corners of Mou Xuan's mouth rose slightly, revealing a confident smile.

"Now, can we talk?"

As the ability to stop time was withdrawn, the stench swept over again and the zombies began to stir again.

Merchant Ding had a flattering smile on his fat face. "Boss Mou, your ability is incredible! It's simply divine! With you, our alliance is secure!" He rubbed his hands, his eyes rolling around, "But, the profit sharing ratio..."
