Chapter 316: Chapter 157: Brother, I want_1


    Rustle——


    The sky was gloomy, and the heavy rain poured down incessantly.


    In a dpidated small town overrun with greenery, three well-covered survivors were taking shelter from the rain inside a broken house.


    One of them, a thin young man, looked up at the sky with a hint of fear and said,


    “The rain is getting heavier, and I feel really ufortable. Let’s head back…”


    Another man, wearing a security guard’s uniform, rubbed his neck and said,


    “This heavy rain has been going on for several days non-stop… I’m also starting to feel very ufortable…”


    Thest one, a tall man about 1.7 meters but very sturdy, dressed in camouge, sighed helplessly,


    “Ah! Then let’s go back, today’s haul isn’t great…”


    The middle-aged man shook his head,<div>


    “No way around it, the heavy rain is too much of an obstacle for us! Without the rain, we could stay outside for a day. But now, just a few hours in and we can’t stand it…”


    “Sigh, do you think the heavens really want to wipe us out… When it used to rain, the zombies’ perception would weaken, which made it a good opportunity to scavenge for supplies. But who knew the rain would be toxic now…”


    The young manined in a low voice.


    “Heh, Little Li, be content. It’s already great that we can go out to scavenge. When it rains, many people can’t even step outside their doors!”


    The middle-aged man spoke with a smug tone.


    “Haha, Brother Tian is right, always look on the bright side of life, and you’ll find much more happiness!”


    The man in camougeughed heartily, ying the role of a life coach.


    “Er… that makes sense… Brother Tian, Brother Yu, you’re right!”


    Li Yi scratched his head.


    Thinking of how many people in the camp hid at home, not daring toe into contact with the rainwater, a smug look appeared on Li Yi’s face.


    Although scavenging was dangerous, the benefits were plenty—he might not be the wealthiest in the camp, but he was definitely part of the upper echelon. Many people had to be careful about how they acted around him!


    The feeling of being on top, he could never have experienced that when he was just a Screw in the factory!


    Sometimes he even thought, perhaps the apocalypse wasn’t such a bad thing!


    But then, as if something hit him, he blurted out,


    “I wonder how Fatty’s doing with his haul?”


    Mentioning the name Fatty, both the man in camouge, Yu Wei, and the middle-aged security guard, Tian Peng, exchanged nces, their expressions somewhat enigmatic.


    “Shall we… go check on him?”


    Tian Peng raised his eyebrows.


    “He said he’s heading to the Xinghe Community today, right? That means we’ll have to take a detour…”<div>


    Yu Wei hesitated a bit.


    “Hey! With the zombies practically blind now, taking a small detour won’t matter! We’re all friends here, we should look out for each other! And besides…”


    Tian Peng gave him a knowing look.


    “Alright! Let’s go check on him!”<div>


    Yu Wei finally nodded his head.


    Li Yi naturally had no objections; after all,pared to the other two, he was just a newbie and didn’t really have a say in the matter.


    The three of them ate something quickly, then shouldered their backpacks and carefully made their way for over half an hour before finally reaching the outskirts of Xinghe Community.


    “Whew—”


    Upon seeing Xinghe Community, all three took deep breaths.


    Not out of exhaustion, but because they were drenched and ufortable from the “toxic rain.”


    “Can’t do it anymore, shall we rest a bit after finding Fatty before we head back?”


    Tian Peng spoke somewhat helplessly.


    “Yeah, I was thinking the same thing!”


    Yu Wei nodded in agreement.


    The gate of Xinghe Community was open, with several zombies dead at the entrance. Seeing those with their heads smashed, the three were somewhat taken aback.


    Li Yi eximed,


    “Fatty is still so badass! These zombies probably didn’t stand a chance against his hammer!”<div>


    Tian Peng shook his head with a hint of envy.


    “If I had his strength, I could probably walk sideways in our town!”


    Yu Wei carefully surveyed the surroundings, then his eyes lit up and he pointed at a window of a house,


    “Fatty’s in there!”


    Three long green cloth strips hung outside that window.


    ording to the rules of their camp, green cloth strips meant the room was safe, red meant danger. Three green strips indicated that all nearby zombies had been killed and it was very safe.


    If it was someone else who hung three green strips, they would have to check cautiously, but if it was Fatty who did, there was no need. After all, Fatty was an honest man; if he said it was safe, it definitely meant he had personally wiped out all nearby zombies!


    The group confidently ascended the stairs and knocked on the door, Yu Wei spoke softly,


    “Fatty, are you there? It’s me, Old Yu, Yu Wei!”


    Momentster, the door opened.


    A young man about two meters tall, extremely burly, with a simple and honest face, opened the door.


    He had to stoop slightly at the doorway, and his massive frame almost blocked the whole entrance.


    When Fatty saw the trio outside, a smile appeared on his face, and he scratched his head somewhat awkwardly,<div>


    “You guys came. I was about to head back in a bit…”


    “No!” Upon hearing this, Tian Peng hastily waved his hands, “Wait before you go! We were just soaked in rain for a long time; we need to rest a bit!”


    “Okay!”


    Fatty invited the three inside.


    The house had been tidied up simply by Fatty and was rtively clean. Several Snake Skin Bags were ced in the center of the living room, shing obviously with the decor of the room.


    And upon seeing these bags, both Tian Peng and Yu Wei’s eyes brightened.
