Chapter 80: Since You Want to Court Death

The next day, Alex made a point to check on the three Unsullied.

The Unsullied.

This was an idea Alex got from Daenerys's eunuch army in the American TV show "Game of Thrones".

He referred to his own subordinates who had similarly lost certain functionalities as the Unsullied.

The three young Unsullied had recovered quite a bit by now.

But walking was still difficult for them.

Alex temporarily abandoned the plan to have these three go to Lily New Town to dismantle and transport the solar defense and water purification systems.

That job required not only mental effort but also physical strength.

In their current state, they clearly weren't up to the task.

"Let's first bring back the remaining few people," he decided.

Having made his plans, Alex, along with Coco and Si Ruocheng, drove the Strangler armored vehicle back on the road.

Inside Villa 026, Duan Chengzhi and the other three women were anxiously waiting.

They had been waiting for two days and nights, but there was still no news from the three who had left!

Even continuous calls through the walkie-talkie yielded no response.

It was as if the three had suddenly disappeared!

"What should we do? Could they already be dead?" Duan Chengzhi's wife worriedly said, "I always feel that there's something strange about this. How could the water just cut off for no reason? Is someone deliberately targeting us?"

"Don't let your imagination run wild!" Duan Chengzhi scolded, "There are zombies everywhere here, where would there be people? And even if there were, why would they target us?"

Their speech was somewhat unclear, their cracked lips indicating they hadn't had water in a long time.

"But why is there no response from their walkie-talkies? It's been two or three days!" a young woman asked in fear.

"Maybe it's because they drove too far away. The walkie-talkie's range is only two kilometers.

Beyond that distance, contact is impossible," Duan Chengzhi speculated with a frown.

He knew he was deluding himself.

There was no need for the three people who went out to find food or fix the water pipes to drive the car more than two kilometers away.

And it was very likely that the other party was bluffing; his three students might not all have been captured.

Perhaps, they just ran into some trouble.

After all, the three of them were very strong fighters, with not only a modified car but also rifles.

Capturing them would be very difficult.

A fierce glint flashed in Duan Chengzhi's eyes. Expecting him to submit?

Dream on!

He believed that, with his skills, he could survive well in this apocalyptic world solely based on his own abilities.

Meanwhile, not far from Villa 026, a formidable and imposing armored vehicle was parked.

Alex sat inside the armored vehicle, coldly smiling as he cut off the walkie-talkie connection.

"Ungrateful fools. I originally planned to enslave you comfortably, but it seems you prefer to seal your own fate!"

Alex had initially intended to break their psychological defenses through the tactic of surrender and then bring them back to the city for a more gentle enslavement.

After all, violent enslavement could damage a normal person's psyche.

Most of the remaining people were women.

Alex felt there was no need for such brutality.

But now, it seemed a waste of time to continue.

Since these people enjoyed courting death.

Let them fully experience the agonizing embrace of the Iron Maiden!

Alex tossed down the walkie-talkie and fiercely stepped on the gas.

The Strangler armored vehicle charged straight towards the gates of Villa 026 at full speed.

With a loud "Boom!", the gates of Villa 026 were easily breached by the Strangler armored vehicle.

The steel gates were instantly crushed into iron scraps.

The Strangler armored vehicle loomed at the broken gateway,

Blocking the zombies attracted by the noise from entering.
