Countless soldiers holding shields and guns formed a circle. All the people who had hurried out of the stadium were blocked in the square outside, shouting anxiously, "Let us out! Let us out!"

There was panic on people's faces, and their expressions were distorted madly with fear.

The leader of the army stood on the car, holding a loud speaker and coldly shouting to the hundreds of people in the square: "Everyone stay where you are. Anyone who moves will be shot immediately."

There were constant screams, gunshots and explosions inside the auction stadium, creating endless panic.

Everyone who escaped had seen the auctioneer being pierced by something strange. It was an extremely bloody scene. The woman's face was stained with blood and quickly decayed, and she had obviously transformed into a monster.

Those who rushed out had no idea what was going on inside and just wanted to leave this dangerous place as soon as possible.

Bai Qingqing was squeezed in the crowd, and all she could see was a sea of ​​heads of people, and she couldn't find Fu Chen and Cheng Rui at all.

I could hear people talking.

"Have zombies sneaked in?"

"Don't you have to go through multiple levels of inspection to enter the city? How did she get in?"

"When the woman was pulled out, she clearly didn't change. What happened?"

Bai Qingqing recalled what she had seen and found it extremely strange. The woman who suddenly killed the auctioneer must have been thoroughly examined. If it was a zombie, it would have been obvious.

After she got out of the cage, she pierced the auctioneer with a sharp blade that looked like a plant, killing him instantly.

However, the aura that the woman gave off was not that of a supernatural being, because the auctioneer turned into a zombie after ten seconds, which scared the audience so much that they all ran away.

The officers' cold words undoubtedly made people even more frightened. The buyers who came to watch the auction included not only civilians but also people of high status, who shouted at the military.

"We are not infected, let us out!"

"You bastards, you have no right to stop us from leaving. Do you want to kill us?"

The army looked at people coldly, as if they were looking at a pile of dead objects, without any emotion.

They received an order from their superiors that mutant zombies had appeared in the auction house. If they failed to successfully control the situation inside, they would use thermal weapons to eliminate everyone in the auction house.

People were arguing with sly expressions until there was a bang of a gunshot, and a well-dressed man was shot in the head.

The man happened to be not far away from Bai Qingqing, and blood splashed on the corner of her clothes, which was shocking to the eye.

The gunshots amplified people’s panic, and many people began to cry and beg for mercy, “We are really not infected, please let us go.”

Bai Qingqing's scalp tingled as she looked at the soldiers suppressing the people and the black gun muzzles in the back row. She realized that no one would be able to leave here alive today, whether infected or not.

Bai Qingqing never expected to encounter such a crisis. Her space ability had to be at level five to hide inside, and her ability to control plants and animals was only at level two. There were no mutated plants or animals around that she could control.

If Fu Chen and Cheng Rui hadn't found her quickly, her life would be in danger.

Suddenly—"Get out of the way! Aaaaaaaah!"

There were more terrified screams from the back of the crowd. Bai Qingqing saw the leader standing on the car raised his hand and made a gesture, ordering: "Move!"

Bai Qingqing's pupils shrank slightly and she immediately stepped back.

As soon as the officer finished speaking, gunshots rang out. Bang, bang, bang, bang, people fell one after another, blood mist filled the air, and the square was filled with sharp screams.

This scene was like purgatory on earth. Bai Qingqing had no time to process the scene before her. She looked around for a chance to survive.

The most dangerous places may often be temporary safe zones.

Just as I retreated to the vicinity of a large pillar of the gymnasium, a man suddenly rushed over. His rotten face and red eyes were extremely terrifying. It was a mutated zombie!

Bai Qingqing took out a Tang sword from the space and chopped it over, directly chopping off the zombie's head. Suddenly, her arm was grabbed and she turned her head sharply to look.

Cheng Rui held her arm and said in a deep voice, "Follow me."

Bai Qingqing breathed a sigh of relief and finally reunited with one of the Thunder Team members. After all, they were the protagonists, and it would be safer to stay with them if she encountered danger.

Outside, gunshots were still sweeping across the human population, followed by scorching flames. Those who had been shot but not yet dead were surrounded by flames, emitting a pungent, hissing smell of burning.

Bai Qingqing's face turned pale. The strange experience in Zhoucun was terrifying enough, but it was far less shocking than the scene before her.

"Don't look." Cheng Rui's face was cold and hard. He grabbed her and left quickly.

Humans were fleeing frantically, and there were hideous and terrifying zombies. The scene was in chaos, with people constantly being bitten and mutated.

Bai Qingqing staggered as she followed Cheng Rui to break through for more than ten minutes, and her physical strength declined.

After taking a look at the girl with a pale face and rapid breathing, Cheng Rui said "excuse me" and carried her on his shoulder with one hand.

"Ah!" Bai Qingqing didn't expect him to be so rude and rough, and hurriedly grabbed his back.

There are more infected people in the gymnasium, but these mutated zombies are easier to deal with than the army surrounding outside. Cheng Rui uses his superpowers to kill mutated zombies while looking for a place to hide.

However, before he found a hiding place, two mutants with purple faces and abnormal expressions suddenly rushed out and attacked Cheng Rui using their special powers.

Bai Qingqing noticed that these two people were the psychics who came out of the auction house to kill the mutant woman before. They also turned into zombies?

No, that's not right. The faces of those who were bitten by zombies and mutated would rot instantly, but these two people did not turn into zombies. Instead, it gave her a particularly weird feeling.

Cheng Rui had to deal with two mutants, so he had to put her down.

The two mutants moved so fast that it was terrifying, and Cheng Rui didn't even get the upper hand when fighting with them.

Bai Qingqing assisted him in the attack with a gun in her hand. Because the enemy was too fast, the bullets either missed or hit other parts of the body. The injury that did not hit the head was not painful or itchy for the mutant.

Her palms were sweating, and she had to concentrate on hitting other zombies that were running towards her.

It is impossible to use superpowers all the time. Under the crazy attacks of the two mutants, Cheng Rui could only take Bai Qingqing to the auction house to rest and escape.

The mutants were chasing after her like puppets being controlled. Cheng Rui threw her into a room and said, "You hide here. I'll lead them away."

Bai Qingqing nodded, closed the door and hid in a corner.

She couldn't help much, and the best option was not to hinder or cause trouble. She could only pray that Cheng Rui could deal with the two mutants.

Bai Qingqing tried her best to calm herself down and told herself that Cheng Rui would be fine.

She recalled everything from entering the auction house to the auctioneer being killed and meeting a mutant who was not a zombie.

Those two people with special abilities were a bit like the woman at the auction house. They seemed to be controlled by something. What on earth made them become special?

If the mutation goes undetected initially and has a latent period, that would explain why the auction house did not detect that the woman was a mutant.

This is much scarier than the zombies that suddenly appear.

Are there other mutants in the city that have not been discovered? If so, this will no longer be a safe zone and everyone in the city will die.

I don’t know what happened to Fu Chen and the others. I hope they can get out of the auction house alive.

Time passed by little by little, and Bai Qingqing had never felt that time was so long.

Suddenly there was a knock at the door. Before she could get up to check it, the door was kicked open and soldiers with guns rushed in.

The blinding light swept over, and Bai Qingqing quickly stood up and raised her hand: "Don't shoot."

The soldier looked at her carefully. "Alive?"

Bai Qingqing showed a frightened expression and said, "I have been hiding here since the incident at the auction house."

The soldiers forced her out to the Stadium Square, where she found many people still alive, all of whom were detained in the square, handcuffed and loaded into cars.

People looked numb, no one spoke, and they were crowded in the car.

Whether everyone lives or dies is a matter of a word from the top leaders of the city. No matter if they are infected or not, as long as they are at the auction house, they will be taken away.

After a while, the car stopped at a place similar to a prison area, and the survivors of the auction house were driven out of the car and taken in one by one.

A place like a basketball court where people gather together.

"You will be quarantined here for a few days, and if you show no signs of infection, you will be released."

"How many days is it?" someone couldn't help but ask.

The officer had a grim look on his face. He did not kill them immediately, which was the greatest mercy he could show. As for how to deal with them in the end, that was a matter for the higher-ups.

The only fate of these auction house survivors is to be eliminated. Now they are kept here just to show the civilians in the city that the city is not killing innocent people.

The officer did not answer. The scene was dead silent. This prison might be their grave.

Bai Qingqing could only hope that Fu Chen would not abandon her sister and find her quickly and rescue her. If Fu Chen did not show up, she would have no choice but to expose her spatial ability in exchange for survival.

Bai Qingqing was locked up with a few other people. She looked out the window at the dim moonlight outside and felt very heavy.

After a while, she saw soldiers holding a girl passing through the cell, and she ran over and called her, "Bai Tiantian."

Bai Tiantian turned around immediately and opened her mouth in surprise, "Qingqing." She grabbed the iron bars of the prison, "How did you get caught in here?"

"Where are Shen Mingxuan and Xiao Yang?" Bai Qingqing asked in quick succession, "You didn't see them?"

Bai Tiantian shook her head.

"Hurry up, don't dawdle." the soldier urged.

Bai Tiantian didn't know where she was being taken, but Bai Qingqing knew the reason and said in a low voice, "Let them take me with them."
