Kid, you're with me from now on.

"Hey, you named Xu Yang, I'm talking to you, did you hear me? Do you want to live? If you want to live, why don't you follow me? These people below don't deserve to be your teammates. If you're willing, I'll pull you up right now." Seeing the guy's indifference, Zhao Tianlei shouted at him again.

Before the guy could respond, the people who were scrambling around below finally realized after hearing Zhao Tianlei's voice from above that the glass breaking and falling wasn't caused by zombies, but by someone up there.

Especially after hearing Zhao Tianlei's words, some people below couldn't help but look at each other, seeing a glimmer of hope for survival. Immediately, a good-looking woman said to Zhao Tianlei, who was looking down from the ceiling: "Handsome guy above, can you save us? If you can save us, you can have whatever you want from here, take as much as you want, and even if you want, I can accompany you."

At that moment, facing the zombies constantly banging on the door from outside, people had long lost their dignity in order to survive. They would even kneel and beg for mercy, selling themselves just to live.

The woman's confident, coquettish plea, which she thought would elicit Zhao Tianlei's pity, was met with a cold snort from Zhao Tianlei after he glanced at her. "Scram, I wasn't talking to you. You're not qualified to be my woman. Besides, with your looks, I wouldn't be interested. And what's the point of eating a lot down there? You can't get out, and the zombies outside will get in sooner or later. Then you'll all just be zombie food. You'd better get out of my way and stop delaying me. Maybe if I'm in a good mood after I'm done, I'll throw you a rope to help you climb out."

Zhao Tianlei's words instantly gave many people hope, but they were still confused about what Zhao Tianlei called his "business." A man cautiously raised his head and said to Zhao Tianlei, "Little brother, what exactly is this business you're talking about? As long as you're willing to help us escape from here, just say what you need, and we'll do our best to help."

The others also responded, perhaps trying to curry favor with Zhao Tianlei. But it was clear that Zhao Tianlei was very indifferent to all this, especially after witnessing everything that had happened below.

So Zhao Tianlei knew exactly what was in these people's hearts. He smirked, pointed at the brother and sister hiding by the wall, and said, "I want those two. I'll give you a chance. I can throw down a rope right now. Hurry up and bring me that brother and sister. After I take them, you can climb up along the rope. But if anyone tries to fight for them, I won't hesitate to cut the rope and make sure you can never get out."

Zhao Tianlei's words were very clear, and everyone below understood them. For a moment, they all looked at each other in confusion. They were clearly bewildered, not understanding why Zhao Tianlei wasn't tempted by the beautiful woman's advances, but instead interested in a down-and-out brother and sister. Especially the sister, who had already been bitten by a zombie, her wound turning black and spreading. It was only a matter of time before she turned into a terrifying zombie.

Someone couldn't help but remind him, "Hey man, I don't know why you chose those two, but I'm kindly warning you. His sister has been bitten and infected by a zombie, and she looks like she's about to die. She'll turn into a terrifying zombie soon, and those things are ferocious, recognizing no one and biting and eating anyone they see. You should be careful."

"Mm, I know, but don't worry. Even if she's bitten and infected by a zombie, it takes some time after death before she turns. She's still safe during that period. Besides, although those zombies are scary, compared to the ungrateful and self-destructive behavior of people, they're quite merciful. I'd rather be bitten to death by a zombie than killed by a human."

As he spoke, Zhao Tianlei pointed at the rattling security door and said to everyone again, "I advise you to hurry. Judging by this, the door will be broken through by zombies soon. When I came over, I saw at least several hundred zombies outside. If they get in, they'll gnaw you down to nothing. Even if I wanted to save you then, it would be too late. Think about it yourselves."

Zhao Tianlei's reminder served as a wake-up call. Under the circumstances, no one dared to argue with Zhao Tianlei or make any demands. From Zhao Tianlei's actions, it was clear that he didn't know the brother and sister. The crowd couldn't use them to threaten Zhao Tianlei. At this, they hurriedly walked towards the brother and sister, telling them to talk to Zhao Tianlei quickly.

Perhaps because they had just been startled, when the man named Xu Yang looked up at Zhao Tianlei with his sister in his arms, he noticed a man and a woman lying on the roof. The man gave him a smile and said, "Kid, you're lucky this time. I'll lower a rope now to pull you and your sister up. I hope you won't dawdle, unless you want you and your sister to be fed to those zombies outside."

With that, Zhao Tianlei took a bundle of rope from his backpack, tied one end to a pillar on the side of the roof, and then threw the rope down. After the rope was thrown down, some people couldn't help but get agitated, but after a strange noise, someone looked up. They saw Zhao Tianlei blindly smashing with an axe, clearly warning these people not to fight for it, or he would chop the rope with an axe, leaving no hope for anyone.

"Big brother, hurry up! Didn't you say you wanted to protect your sister? Someone's here to save you now, why aren't you holding your sister and going up? What are you dawdling for? The zombies outside are about to break through the door, and we'll all die here, including your sister. They specifically asked to save you two first, and only after saving you can we get out. Don't waste any more time." Seeing the brother and sister being so hesitant, some nervous people around them shouted and complained.

Although he didn't understand what was going on, it seemed that he and his sister would no longer suffer harm from these people. It was all thanks to the man on the roof. Who was he? Why did he want to save them? What was his ulterior motive? All of this was a mystery to him, but the most crucial thing right now was to get out of here.
