"Good, finally encountered an Awakened."
Chu Bang was overjoyed.
He had already thought of the scene of luring the Awakened to the Corpse God's place.
"It's time for me to make an appearance."
Chu Bang drove the vehicle, preparing to meet up with them. In the apocalypse, the fastest way to make people accept you was to extend a helping hand; providing charcoal in snowy weather could often make people grateful.
At this moment.
Dam Thanh appeared in Hua Minh's vision like a War God. Wearing battle armor, his combat power was unparalleled, and the steel spear in his hand transformed into afterimages.
Sweeping across, a force unmatched by humans, he bombarded the zombies, cutting them in half.
Before becoming an Awakened.
Dam Thanh was an expert with spears.
Even without legendary internal energy or true qi, the force he could erupt with was not comparable to ordinary people.
And after becoming an Awakened, using crystals, plus the enhancement of battle armor, the strength he could erupt with was even more unimaginably formidable.
To put it simply.
With the same awakened ability, at the same stage, Dam Thanh dared to claim invincibility.
At this moment, Dam Thanh felt he had never been so invigorated, as if all the meridians in his body were clear, and both the Ren and Du meridians were opened at this time.
The surrounding zombies swarmed over, about to become souls under his spear.
He thought of what his master told him after he learned the spear.
"Little Dam, nowadays, spear arts have no place to be used at all. Even for performances, you don't have this status or background."
Every time he thought of this sentence, a kind of hard-to-release depression would well up in his heart.
But now.
Dam Thanh just wanted to tell his master, "No... there is still a place for it. That is to use the steel spear in my hand to hunt zombies. Not only can it be used to strengthen the body, but it can also maintain world peace."
In the car, Hua Minh's mouth was agape, his eyes wide, looking at the mysterious person outside wearing black battle armor.
He had never seen such a formidable person before.
That figure, that style with the spear, was forever imprinted in his mind, hard to forget, even impossible to erase.
Splat!
Splat!
Dam Thanh seemed to have become one with the steel spear in his hand. Every time he thrust, it appeared extremely domineering. For others, ordinary zombies were like tofu, shattering with a single touch.
"Battle armor is truly a good helper. If not for the protection of the battle armor, I wouldn't be able to be as light and joyful as I am now."
Dam Thanh completely let loose, unafraid of ordinary zombies' bites and tears.
"Roar!"
A Strength-type zombie with a ferocious face rushed towards Dam Thanh.
Dam Thanh was fearless. The steel spear in his hand was his courage. He suddenly swung the spear, knocking aside the Strength-type zombie's arms. Perhaps for the Strength-type zombie, it also hadn't expected an ordinary human to possess such terrifying strength.
By the time it reacted, that steel spear, like a meteor, had already pierced its face.
Dam Thanh's wrist turned, the steel spear rotated, and the Strength-type zombie's face was completely ruined. A white crystal fell to the ground.
Bang!
Bang!
A vehicle crashed around wildly, continuously colliding with ordinary zombies.
Chu Bang rolled down the car window, stuck his head out, and said: "Don't panic, I'm here to help you!"
Seeing the current situation, Dam Thanh's face showed a look of surprise. He hadn't expected there to be such a fierce and unfamiliar survivor, driving a vehicle back and forth, crashing, and pulling that group of ferocious zombies under the car.
Very quickly, the zombies at the scene were cleared away.
Dam Thanh focused his attention and observed the surrounding situation. Zombies were not to be underestimated. Any carelessness could lead to an irreversible situation.
He wasn't worried about himself being harmed.
But about others who weren't protected by battle armor. If they were bitten by zombies, it would be very troublesome.
"Are you all okay?"
Dam Thanh looked at the three survivors who had gotten out of the car and were standing before him.
Fortunately, they met by chance; otherwise, the outcome would have been very bad.
"We're fine, thank you for saving us. You are?" Hua Minh was extremely grateful. He could be one hundred percent sure that the person before him was an Awakened.
"Dam Thanh, from Huong Son Film City base. I encountered you while out collecting supplies."
Being asked, he didn't hide his identity.
In the apocalypse, hiding one's identity could easily lead to unnecessary misunderstandings.
He could also see that these few were ordinary people.
That look of surviving a disaster could not be hidden.
At this moment.
Chu Bang got out of the car, walked over, and proactively greeted, "Hello everyone, my name is Chu Bang, from Diem City shelter."
Dam Thanh sized up the other party and nodded, "Hello, Dam Thanh."
Chu Bang exclaimed in admiration: "Old brother, you are truly formidable. That spear technique is too astonishing. If I'm not mistaken, old brother should be an Awakened, right?"
"Yes." Dam Thanh smiled. A familiar address, understandable. Ever since the Duong Quang shelter started distributing the "Zombie Picture Book" everywhere, awakened abilities were uniformly called Awakened. "Diem City shelter, that's very close to Huong Son Film City."
"Huong Son still has a shelter?" Chu Bang appeared very surprised. After all, the distance between Diem City and Huong Son wasn't too far.
He really didn't know.
Clearly, the number of survivors living in the apocalypse was more than he had imagined.
"Having a shelter is a very normal situation. Huddling together for warmth makes it easier to survive in the apocalypse."
Dam Thanh didn't think this was anything worth being surprised about.
However, for Dam Thanh, he was still very curious, "You're out here alone, are you also an Awakened?"
Chu Bang said: "To be honest, I am also an Awakened, but my awakened ability is not as formidable as old brother's. My awakened ability is that zombies can't see me, so that's why I dare to come out alone to collect supplies."
Hearing their conversation, Hua Minh was very envious. He hadn't expected to encounter two Awakened ones so soon after going out. From what he had just seen, he had already deeply understood the formidability of Awakened ones.
Truly very strong, indeed the hope against zombies.
Dam Thanh said: "Camouflage awakened ability, a very good ability. It's usually very difficult to encounter danger, unless you meet a few special types of zombies."
Chu Bang smiled and said, "Yes, when I first learned about my ability, I was still a bit dazed. Only after seeing the "Zombie Picture Book" did I understand that my ability is actually called camouflage. Indeed, it's like camouflaging as a zombie, making zombies mistakenly believe I'm one of their own."
Dam Thanh looked at Hua Minh, "Where are you all planning to go? If you have nowhere to go, you can also come to Huong Son shelter. We still have many survivors there."
Hua Minh thought, not knowing what choice to make.
"We want to go to the Duong Quang shelter."
He spoke his true thoughts.
If one were to say who at the scene was most familiar with the Duong Quang shelter, it would definitely be Dam Thanh. Just thinking of the distance, he advised, "From here to the Duong Quang shelter, it's at least eight or nine hundred kilometers. Given your situation, you might not necessarily arrive safely. If you continue to encounter zombies on the way, you might not have such good luck anymore."
"This... I know." Hua Minh lowered his head, a little regretful. If he had known he would encounter another shelter halfway, he would have brought Ly Ngang along.
"Are you worried about something? Why not say it and let us hear?"
Dam Thanh observed the other party's expression. It was a bit difficult. Clearly, there was another reason. He had already spoken so clearly; the journey was long, and dangers lurked everywhere. Any other survivor would definitely not even think and would follow him to leave.
Now that the other party was hesitating, it could only mean there was really something.
Hua Minh then told his own story, and also that he had escaped from that shelter over there.
Dam Thanh pondered. Going to another shelter to lead people away, honestly, he was very confident in his own strength. But now it was the apocalypse, and all sorts of possibilities existed.
Beside him, Chu Bang was also thinking about things. Dam Thanh was his target. Under normal circumstances, he would definitely try to trick the other party into coming to his place.
Learning that there was also a Huong Son shelter.
His target began to become much larger.
Some things couldn't be rushed.
Getting familiar first was very necessary.
"Old brother, you all wait for me." Chu Bang drove the car over. When he returned, he had two more submachine guns in his hand.
Dam Thanh directly exclaimed, "My goodness."
The country's ban on firearms was very strict. To get this kind of gun, one would have to go to the military side.
Camouflage ability was indeed convenient.
Wanting to get these was not a difficult matter.
Chu Bang said: "Old brother, I see this little brother is also a righteous person. How about we help him a bit? These submachine guns might be a bit troublesome against zombies, but threatening the people in the shelter is more than enough. If anyone wants to resist, just give them a burst."
A light flashed in Hua Minh's eyes, and he hurriedly said: "It's enough without guns. The shelter I left has no firearms at all. It's just that they have more people, and we have no way to resist."
Dam Thanh said: "Then let's go."
"Thank you, thank you."
Hua Minh was extremely grateful.
The place Hua Minh mentioned wasn't far, only a few dozen kilometers, so they could arrive very quickly.
Just as Hua Minh said, that shelter over there had no weapons. When they arrived, that group of survivors in the shelter was indeed a bit rough at first. But when Chu Bang held two submachine guns, he instantly intimidated that group of rioters who wanted to cause trouble.
The process was very smooth.
Everyone obediently watched.
Ly Ngang, who was Hua Minh's good brother, was completely dumbfounded. You just left not long ago, and then you came back with people. It left him a bit dazed.
Hua Minh knew many survivors living here were very desperate. He felt a bit unbearable in his heart, so he asked Dam Thanh if he could bring a few more people.
Dam Thanh didn't refuse but nodded in agreement.
Ever since coming into contact with Lam Pham from the Hoang City Duong Quang shelter, he knew how important living people were. Future construction needed everyone's help.
It couldn't be completed by relying on any single person.
