29: Why would I need an M-style to kill you?

Si Nan narrowed her eyes, "Then come quickly, let me test the power of the M-form. Actually, never mind, why use the M-form to kill you? That's too wasteful. I'll just give you an arrow, perfectly matching your whole family—all despicable!"

Cui Fu and his son-in-law were still plotting how to rob Si Nan, unaware that the entire process was under her surveillance. Just as she was listening with great interest, a piercing scream suddenly came from the rear fire exit of the residential complex, "Ah, help! Security, come save me!"

A Zombie had actually climbed over the high wall of the complex and was tearing into a female Property Owner who had gone out to take out the trash. Residents upstairs screamed in fear at the three security guards patrolling the complex, "Ahhh, a Zombie has climbed in! That woman is beyond saving. Hurry up and kill them all and throw them out!"

"What? Quick, quick, quick, or we're all doomed." The three security guards also understood the severity of the situation and immediately drew their batons and ran over.

When the zombie virus first broke out, the Property Management called back some security guards, and including those forced to stay, there were nearly 30. For safety reasons, besides taking turns guarding the four main gates, the Property Management had groups of three continuously patrol the entire complex.

If any abnormal situation was discovered, it would be handled immediately and thrown outside the wall. They had thought the wall could block the Zombies, but now it seemed it couldn't hold them back at all.

Two security guards took advantage of the Zombie being focused on tearing into the female Property Owner and swung their batons together, killing the Zombie.

The other security guard, holding a fire extinguisher, sprayed wildly outside the fire exit, forcing back a group of Zombies guarding the door, then quickly threw out the person and the corpse.

Si Nan saw clearly that the two security guards were almost trembling as they dragged the female Property Owner, who had been bitten beyond recognition, with blood and intestines spilling all over the ground. The Property Owner wasn't completely dead yet and was still intermittently pleading for help: "Please—please save me—don't—don't throw me out—"

"Sorry, you're beyond saving." The female Property Owner had just been thrown out when the Zombies scrambled to bury her, frightening the three security guards so much they turned away, unable to look.

This was the fate of being caught by Zombies: either bitten and turned into a Zombie, or devoured completely by starving Zombies. Either way, it was bloody and cruel.

The impact of this scene was enough to shatter people's psychological defenses. Everyone living in the high-rise buildings saw it clearly, and for a moment, cries, screams, and curses, all hoarse and desperate, merged into one.

Si Nan looked toward the distant sea. Snow was falling on the calm surface, as if the world had never changed.

But the reality was that the zombie virus spread like the flu, rampaging wildly. In just one night, more than half of the city's residents had turned into Zombies, all gathering around living beings with life energy, waiting for an opportunity.

Her complex was no exception, and the situation was even more severe. Although the back of the complex faced the sea, there was an important traffic artery along the coast, where a terrible Zombie riot had broken out at night. All fleeing vehicles passing through had been caught.

Every living person intercepted by the Zombie horde there had been eliminated, creating a scene of tragic, bloody, and grand scale, evolving into an entire Zombie street and a traffic artery clogged with all kinds of vehicles.

Among them were three oil tankers and four delivery containers traveling in the opposite direction, passing by the oil tankers.

When Si Nan's gaze fell on the main road, she finally understood why there were so many Zombies and why they were so fierce. "It turns out our complex is the closest to that Zombie street, no wonder there are so many Zombies gathered outside the wall."

However, looking at the three oil tankers and four delivery containers, she felt a bit tempted. There must be a lot of good stuff inside. If it were her without stored supplies, she'd definitely be willing to take the risk. Now was the best time.

Because it was only the second day since the zombie virus outbreak. Even if the Zombies evolved quickly, they couldn't become very strong within three days. The Zombies now were still in the early stages, more or less retaining some habits of living people, like sleeping at night.

Plus, after turning into Zombies, their vision was poor, relying entirely on smelling living beings and sounds to locate them. As long as she wrapped herself up tightly and moved lightly, she could go get the supplies.

What tempted Si Nan wasn't the four delivery containers but the three oil tankers—so much fuel, enough for her to use for a long time. She had stored some, but she didn't know if it would be enough later. This kind of free stuff shouldn't be wasted, but it was too dangerous.

Now, The Authorities and survivors hadn't reacted yet, searching everywhere for supplies. They'd act soon. As the Zombie period dragged on, supplies would become increasingly scarce later.

"I'll think about it later. Isn't it nice to live a low-key, comfortable life? I'll check the Zombies' condition at night." Si Nan withdrew her gaze from the surveillance screen, opened the news channel on her phone to learn about the outside world, and started running on the treadmill.

A city leader: "Please wait calmly. We are doing our best to save everyone, but this virus infection came fiercely and unexpectedly, making it impossible to reach everyone at once.

We have temporarily designated the east and west sports stadiums in the city as safe zones, surrounded by high protective walls. Residents with the ability can escape to these two places with food and water.

For those with mobility issues, we ask neighbors and residents to help as much as possible. Many residential complexes are safe now.

Additionally, the cause of this virus infection is unknown, and no one knows how long it will last. We urge residents to stock up on food, water, winter clothing, etc., as much as possible, and close doors and windows to prevent being bitten by the infected."

"According to reports, last night, 23 towns including G City, K City, V City, and P City have fallen. Zombies are wandering everywhere in the cities, supermarkets have been looted, and incidents of trampling and deaths are common."

"---"

Si Nan finished her workout while listening to various reports, took a hot shower, made herself a nutritious lunch, and even took a photo with it. Looking at the photo, she praised herself, "Hmm, my photography skills have improved."

While eating, she opened her phone to browse various urgent messages.

Property Owner Group: "Oh my god, the one just bitten to death lived right above me. Her husband is still on a business trip out of town."

"Who cares about anyone else now? Maybe her husband is already gone."

"Wuwuwu, which Property Owner can be kind enough to sell me some food? My family just moved in and didn't have time to prepare food. I'll pay any price.

There's a Child at home—I don't mind going hungry, but the Child keeps crying from hunger. Please, everyone!"

"It's not that I don't want to help, but I really can't. My family doesn't have much food either, and I'm worried too."

"Yeah, this virus outbreak was too sudden. Who could have foreseen it and prepared food in advance?"

Cui Qingqing suddenly appeared: "Si Nan! Si Nan from unit c-108 knows! Not only did she completely renovate her house from the inside out, making it like an iron barrel, indestructible, but she also stored a large amount of food in advance. Anyone without food should go to her."

Thus, the Property Owner Group suddenly erupted, with Property Owners tagging her one after another.
