Qingxian already had few people to begin with, so even if there are zombies, there won’t be many. The terrain is complex—we can find an abandoned farmhouse, grow crops, raise animals, have a well for water, burn firewood—we’ll definitely survive!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Perhaps stirred by his brother’s vivid description, Duan Sihai’s eyes brightened slightly, then dimmed again: “Brother, you make it sound easy—I ask you, even the zombies in our building are enough to give us trouble, let alone getting out of the compound…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Do you have a plan? How do we escape the unit? Which route? If we don’t plan it out, charging out blindly is suicide, brother!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Duan Wuhu nodded, slightly reassured: “Sihai, it’s good you’re thinking of these things—I already have a rough plan. Let’s analyze it together; point out anything wrong, and give me advice!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing his brother had a plan, Duan Sihai immediately perked up—if there was even a sliver of hope for survival, who would willingly stay trapped waiting to die?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two brothers sat around the dining table, paper and pen laid out, discussing back and forth with intense seriousness—this was a matter of life and death.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upstairs, Zhang Su returned home from Unit 902 with an induction cooker and a soup pot; the entire trip passed without incident, completely unaware that the two women in his home had just held a brief conversation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Are you okay?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zheng Xinyu saw the thick, sticky liquid dripping from the axe Zhang Su carried; she knew he’d dealt with the zombies and asked with concern.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Su handed the items to Zhong Xiaoshan, whose expression was slightly odd, and shook his head: “I ambushed them—no trouble.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ambush? No honor? It doesn’t even exist…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While taking off his gear, Zhang Su said with slight excitement: “There’s plenty of stuff in Li Ge’s fridge—when we get time, we’ll move it all back!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“But where do we put it? The heartless landlord didn’t even give us a fridge…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zheng Xinyu glanced sideways at Zhang Su.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Su rubbed his forehead. He should’ve bought a big freezer back when he knew this day would come—but now it was too late to say anything.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Then leave it there for now. Li Ge’s whole family… sigh, being alive isn’t necessarily happiness—being dead might be a release. Anyway, no one’s left in their house now…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Su touched the keys in his pocket and sighed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhong Xiaoshan, busy in the kitchen, paused for a moment, thinking of her parents in the countryside, her heart sinking—but as always, the truth remained: just managing to survive herself was hard enough; worrying about distant things only added unnecessary anguish.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fifteen minutes later, the dumpling porridge was served…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since the dumplings had become too soggy to separate, they had no choice but to crush them all—dumplings turned into porridge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just over a day had passed since the internet went down, then the water, and now even the gas was gone—the situation had deteriorated sharply. To have a steaming bowl of porridge was already a rare luxury.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>None of the three showed any dissatisfaction; they smelled the aroma and swallowed saliva, already salivating.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Let’s eat, don’t just stare!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Su served himself first; the dumpling porridge made with lamb was truly delicious. He pulled out a bottle of chili sauce he’d found in Li Ge’s house, scooped a spoonful, and it was absolutely heavenly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhong Xiaoshan was tactful—she ate only one bowl and put down her chopsticks, making Zheng Xinyu, who wanted a second bowl, feel slightly embarrassed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Su looked at the two women and pointed to the still half-full pot: “Eat more. We’re going to train—without food, training won’t work!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Train?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhong Xiaoshan looked curiously at Zhang Su.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zheng Xinyu answered for him: “Brother Su made a training plan—it’s intense. After yesterday’s session, my arms and thighs are still sore.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since Zhang Su had spoken, Zheng Xinyu didn’t hold back—she scooped another half-bowl of porridge and ate until she felt warm all over.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Can I ask what you two did before all this happened? In a situation like this, it’s rare to see people face it so calmly.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhong Xiaoshan asked curiously, spooning porridge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Su, mouth full, mumbled: “I’m just a landlord. She’s a celebrity—a livestreamer!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His calmness came from nearly a decade of lived experience—things not for outsiders to understand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It’s just a few ten thousand followers, plus some bots—what celebrity? Don’t flatter me…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zheng Xinyu protested slightly, embarrassed—her livestreams had never had more than three hundred viewers, sometimes only dozens.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You two are really amazing. Honestly, I first thought Brother Su was an ex-special forces soldier.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhong Xiaoshan cast a sultry glance at Zhang Su, delicately eating her porridge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Exaggerated. I just work out regularly—I’m nowhere near a special forces soldier. You’re not eating anymore? Then I’ll finish it all!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing the two women shake their heads, Zhang Su picked up the pot and started devouring it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His training intensity was three times Zheng Xinyu’s—he needed enough food to sustain it. If food ran short, he’d reduce intensity to ensure he could handle daily survival.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After eating, it was already past one in the afternoon. The three rested briefly. Zhang Su was about to call them to begin training when Zheng Xinyu, pulling back the curtain to look outside, suddenly said: “Bad! Zhang Su, come quick—something’s happening!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What’s going on!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Su’s heart tightened; he hurried to the window.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Quick, look over there—oh my god, so many zombies!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zheng Xinyu covered her mouth, eyes filled with terror, her body trembling slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Oh, fuck…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Su followed Zheng Xinyu’s pointing finger and widened his eyes, cursing involuntarily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The street where the SWAT team had clashed with the zombie horde last night was now swarming with zombies pouring through the broken fence into Sheng Qin Jiayuan. Only upon closer inspection did he realize—they were chasing a drone!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A uniquely shaped drone hovered in the air, beneath which hung a loudspeaker!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Damn, someone’s luring zombies into our compound!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Su instantly understood—the distance wasn’t close, but he could faintly hear the loudspeaker blaring something, and that sound was what had drawn the zombies’ attention.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Oh my god, are these the same zombies from last night?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhong Xiaoshan also leaned forward to look far away; the sight of zombies scaling the walls sent a chill down her spine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At night, due to poor lighting, the three hadn’t truly felt the oppressive weight of the zombie horde—now they had a direct, visceral sense of it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The running zombies weren’t slow; their frenzied ferocity surpassed even predatory tigers, charging forward relentlessly, fearless of death, chasing the drone!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One could imagine the horrific fate awaiting any living person who appeared before them—they’d be devoured in under a minute.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thank you to patrons Xiyu☆Mowolf for 100 coins, Beidangyun for 100 coins.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(End of Chapter)\u003C\u002Fp>",1223,"2026-06-20T15:15:14.526Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","21185a6f0c9d7ddd0f9d458875a49ecbcbb6c6baa00d4239ad5651a9737c68b7","the-fiercest-man-in-the-end-times-chapter-29","the-fiercest-man-in-the-end-times-chapter-27",694,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthe-fiercest-man-in-the-end-times-cover.jpg"]
