The Ruined World, a Brutal Fight for Survival

The Dean couldn't help but feel even greater admiration for that figure, as solid and imposing as a rock.

If he was originally an atheist, he has now changed and has become one of the most loyal fans of the God of Geo.

Faced with this situation, Zhang Chulan and the others could only say that he truly lived up to his title Lord Rex Lapis, attracting a large number of Lord Rex Lapis wherever he went with his charm.

——

At this time, Xiao Yan and the others stayed at the school to protect the group of survivors.

Meanwhile, a group of Old Master left the school and scattered throughout City H, searching for survivors.

"Sigh, although I had expected it, this is still too tragic. In such a large area, only a few thousand people survived."

Looking at the group of survivors he had rescued, the Old Celestial Master's expression darkened.

Regardless, these people are all people of the Yan Huang group with black hair, black eyes, and yellow skin.

As the saying goes, though separated by mountains and rivers, we share the same moon and sky.

But now these compatriots have suffered such a great calamity, which makes the Old Celestial Master feel a sense of sorrow and grief.

"Well, considering it's a country that prohibits the spread of dangerous materials abroad, it's not bad that so many people are still around."

The Old Celestial Master is right, as a country that prohibits the spread of dangerous materials abroad.

The people of the Yanhuang Country actually had little ability to resist the sudden danger.

If it were a normal crisis, it might be manageable to resist, but against those creatures, punches, Ravage Bite, and claws would all be effective.

However, there is no way to resist these infectious Zombie, since they have no sense of pain and are fearless in the Zombie.

Unlike people in other countries, the Yan Huang people do not carry weapons and firearms with them when they go out.

Therefore, when faced with Zombie, most people can only run away, but no matter how fast they run, how can they possibly outrun those tireless Zombie?

Therefore, being caught up with was only a matter of time. Under such circumstances, it was already extremely remarkable that the Old Celestial Master was able to save thousands of people.

Everyone had actually anticipated this situation, but when they actually witnessed the tragedy, their emotions still made the Old Celestial Master feel somewhat down.

But now is not the time to be down.

Immediately afterward, the Old Celestial Master, having recovered somewhat, prepared to take the rescued people back to the school to settle the group of survivors.

And so, a large convoy, under the protection of the Old Celestial Master, headed toward the school shelter.

Along the way, all the Zombie the convoy encountered were completely transformed into motionless corpses under the influence of the Old Celestial Master's Golden Light Curse threads, which were like golden swords.

As the journey drew closer, they inevitably encountered familiar faces. Upon seeing Lu Jin approaching, the Old Celestial Master's low spirits lifted somewhat.

"Hey, Old Lu."

"Hmm? These people are the survivors from your side?"

Upon seeing Lu Jin and his team approaching, the Old Celestial Master greeted them.

At the same time, his gaze shifted to what was behind Lu Jin.

Upon looking at it, his gaze immediately sharpened.

Because behind Lu Jin, there were only a few hundred people following.

"Yes, a medium-sized zombie horde has occurred over there, and those people don't have many weapons to resist."

By the time I arrived, it was too late; I could only save the survivors.

Lu Jin's gaze also dimmed somewhat. Although she was an older generation who had experienced the War of Resistance against Japan, she had long since come to terms with death.

However, the tragic scene from just now still cast a shadow over Lu Jin's heart.

At the same time, Lu Jin felt a deep resentment, wondering if she could have saved more survivors if she had gone earlier...

The Old Celestial Master could naturally see through Lu Jin's thoughts. Although he was also uncomfortable, he still tried to comfort his old friend who loved to dwell on things.

"Alright, Old Lu, you're not a god, how can you do everything? Why are you so worried? Didn't you save these people? That's already good enough."

It's not your fault, so don't put more pressure on yourself. If you're really angry, go find Zombie to vent your anger on.

Besides, didn't we anticipate this scenario?

As soon as the Old Celestial Master opened his mouth, he immediately launched into a tirade against Lu Jin, his tone full of disappointment and frustration.

Old Lu is good in every way, except he's prone to getting stuck on things. Even when it's not his fault, he always makes himself unhappy.

After being scolded by the Old Celestial Master, Lu Jin finally snapped out of his rut.

"Sigh, I know, it's just... I feel terrible." Lu Jin came back to her senses and mumbled.

"You think you're the only one who's suffering, while everyone else isn't?"

The Old Celestial Master breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Lu Jin come to her senses.

"Alright, let's settle these survivors first. There might be others elsewhere."

"...Um."

After a long silence, the two Old Master led the merged group towards the survivor base converted from the school.

Before long, the group traveled at full speed and finally returned to the school after more than two hours.

After settling the survivors in, the two Old Master asked around and eventually arrived at their lodgings.

"Hey, Chu Lan, where's Senior Zhongli? I can't find him."

After entering the residence, the Old Celestial Master surveyed the area and found that apart from Zhang Chulan and his group of young people, there was no one else there.

The Old Celestial Master naturally knew the whereabouts of Zuo Ruotong and Zhang Huaiyi, but why was Zhongli also gone?

The Old Celestial Master, puzzled by this, asked Zhang Chulan, who was standing to the side.

"Ah? Oh! Grandmaster, you mean Old Master Zhongli? He went to another city."

After all, we don't have a way to travel quickly, nor can we provide support to other cities.

At this point, Zhang Chulan paused, then continued:

"After he saw that there were no major problems here, he finished the rock wall and left."

"I see, then... that's not bad either."

After listening to Zhang Chulan's words, the Old Celestial Master also sighed.

And what about Zhongli, who is being discussed by everyone right now?

He is now in another city.

In another region of the Yanhuang Region, high above City S.

Zhongli, dressed in the same clothes he wore as Esteemed Guest of the Wangshu Funeral Parlor, watched everything that was happening below.

The golden pupils reflected the city's current deathly silence.

The once bustling city below now resembles a desolate graveyard, permeated with an atmosphere of decay and Destruction.
