Lu Ming Is a Good Person (Part 2)

After weighing whether to help or not, Lu Ming decided to open the window halfway.

Hundreds of zombies had already surrounded the city. This problem had to be resolved.

Of course, he also thought about the capable man who might be intentionally using him, but that thought quickly passed and Lu Ming dismissed it.

The fact that Wang Xiong could attract so many zombies in such a short time indicated that these zombies were nearby. And for Lu Ming, any nearby zombies posed a potential threat, so it was convenient to lure them and deal with them all at once!

Furthermore, Wang Xiong was a free individual, and Lu Ming had no means or demands to restrict his actions. He set up a safe house near Lu Ming's house. For this, Lu Ming could not control. When he went out to do things, Lu Ming could not interfere either. Even if he provoked the zombies and ran back to his safe house, it was reasonable, and Lu Ming had no say in it.

What Lu Ming could and must do was to eliminate all the zombies in the vicinity of his home while ensuring his own safety.

"Now, for every zombie I kill, I will have one less giant zombie to face in the future!"

There was nothing wrong with that!

"Bang."

The sound of the slingshot sounded rhythmically, and Wang Xiong cooperated with Lu Ming, luring the zombies towards the makeshift shelter made of a wall and trash cans from the morning.

Wang Xiong shouted from time to time, attracting the full attention of the zombies, greatly ensuring Lu Ming's safety.

Seeing that Wang Xiong was so sensible, Lu Ming couldn't help but nod.

This young man didn't seem to have any ill intentions.

Then there was no need to activate the self-defense program.

...

Wang Xiong was Awakened. His physique was about twice that of an ordinary zombie, and he had ample combat experience.

There was no issue with Lu Ming's attributes. What was terrifying was his slingshot shooting skill at Lv7 gave Lu Ming an extremely formidable long-range lethality.

The two cooperated with each other, with Wang Xiong acting as a shield and Lu Ming dealing damage. In less than an hour, the large wave of zombies was completely wiped out.

Wang Xiong panted heavily, showing signs of exhaustion, and Lu Ming felt his wrists sore and swollen.

However, the good news was that his slingshot shooting skill had increased to Lv8 (98/700). Not only did his handling feel much better, but his agility attribute had also increased by 0.8!

"Good job, brother!"

When Wang Xiong arrived at the ground floor of Lu Ming's house, he gave a thumbs-up to Lu Ming on the second floor. However, Lu Ming closed the window, pulled down the iron gate, and completely ignored him.

A slight freeze appeared on Wang Xiong's face, but soon he reassured himself, saying, "Looks like he's a reclusive person."

After muttering, he added, "But he's a good person, a really good person."

He turned around and returned to his own safe house.

...

"Here's the situation. The zombies on the other side of the battlefield have dispersed, but not completely."

"There's a dense crowd of zombies left over there, and I can't give you an exact number."

Once the number exceeded a thousand, it became difficult to estimate the exact count. However, Meng Jie and Zhang Lixin understood what Wang Xiong meant.

It meant that they were still far away from the vehicle and weapons, and there was a significant and even insurmountable threshold.

The zombies they killed today were merely a drop in the bucket compared to the horde outside. They thought that dealing with the giant zombie meant an unobstructed path, but who knew that the giant zombie was just the beginning…

While eating, Wang Xiong said, "That's how things are. Even with the help of Slingshot Brother, it's difficult to deal with so many zombies in a short time. And if I go to attract the zombies, it's indeed dangerous and we must consider the possibility of accidents."

Regarding this matter, Meng Jie could not offer a good opinion, and Zhang Lixin, a military officer, furrowed his brow upon hearing it.

"After the Tower appeared, all communications were cut off, and the location system did not work anymore. Even the walkie-talkies and military radios were useless… The shelter must have known that our team is in trouble, but there's no communication channel. I'm not so sure if they'll send support."

Even if they wanted to provide support, they had to know the place…

Wang Xiong took a big gulp of instant noodle soup, wiped his mouth, and said, "That's why I have an idea. Let's settle down here for now and take it slow. After we deal with the zombie horde and acquire the military vehicles and weapons, then we can discuss our plans in detail."

"After all, there are two Awakened individuals here, the Slingshot brother and I. Although the Slingshot brother doesn't like to communicate much, he's a good person and very reliable."

"The security here is still guaranteed."

When they heard the words 'a good person' and 'very reliable', both Zhang Lixin and Meng Jie nodded in agreement.

Upon careful consideration, the two had to agree with Wang Xiong's proposal.

Survival should be the top priority.

Even if we want to complete the mission, we must first ensure our own survival.

...

It was past three o'clock that afternoon.

Just as Lu Ming was finishing his practice of cold weapon combat proficiency, he heard the doorbell ring again.

He went to the door, opened the electronic screen, and saw a face full of righteousness.

"What's the matter?"

Upon hearing Lu Ming's voice from the intercom, Wang Xiong smiled and said, "Nothing special, just wanted to say hello to my buddy. We've decided to stay nearby for the time being. From now on, we're neighbors, so let's take care of each other."

Lu Ming said, "Suit yourself."

Neighbors or not, it was nothing important to Lu Ming.

But these people coming to his door two or three times a day was starting to annoy him.

"By the way, brother, what's your name?"

"Lu Ming."

"My name is Wang Xiong. and these are my two companions. The soldier is Zhang Lixin, and the female doctor is Meng Jie."

"Oh~~"

After Lu Ming finished speaking, there was a beeping sound.

It was Lu Ming who intentionally hung up the doorbell…

This time, Wang Xiong was completely sure.

"Brother Lu Ming is indeed someone who enjoys his privacy…"

He pressed the doorbell again.

"What are you doing now?" This time, Lu Ming's voice was filled with anger.

He didn't care where Wang Xiong and his group lived, as long as they didn't stay in his house. But what did they mean by coming several times a day?!

Wang Xiong grinned and said, "There's something else."

With that, he raised his right hand and Lu Ming noticed that Wang Xiong was holding a small bag in his right hand.

"Slingshot ammunition. When we were cleaning the streets earlier, we recovered a portion of the steel balls. I will leave them at your door, so you can pick them up later."

"And I just found a simple lathe nearby. Brother Zhang said that he could use it to produce more ammunition for you. I'll bring it to you when Brother Zhang is done."

Lu Ming was silent for a long time before saying slowly, "Thank you."

Ammunition was indeed important.

After all, this thing was a consumable item that would eventually run out.

While Wang Xiong's ability to make ammunition did not completely solve Lu Ming's urgent need, it did provide him with some convenience.

"Well, I won't disturb you, bro."

With that, Wang Xiong left.

Lu Ming quietly opened the door and grabbed the bag of ammunition once he was sure that Wang Xiong had gone far enough.

He then went up to the second floor and opened the observation window to look out onto the street.

He saw Wang Xiong and Zhang Lixin moving the bodies of the zombies one by one to a more distant location.

This made Lu Ming nod slightly.

He had always respected sanitation workers.

After all, who would not want a clean and bright street in front of their own home?
