Chapter 267: Relying on the Knife in My Hand



In the eyes that looked towards Alex, a strange self-assurance emerged.

Turning to face these people, Alex raised an eyebrow and let out a cold laugh. "What's this? Are you all here to uphold justice? Can't accept defeat?"

As Alex turned his head, it made these people take a step back involuntarily. Even though Alex's current strength was no different from the average mutated person, his cruelty and ruthlessness instilled fear in their hearts.

Just one glance planted the seed of fear in these people. After all, having a murderer in front of you, even if you know they might not be your match, you still dare not confront them, especially when you don't know their true strength.

"Don't be afraid of him, everyone! He's just one person! With so many of us united, we can definitely deal with him! If we don't unite and let him bully us one by one, we will all eventually die at his hands." Feng Shaofeng, seeing his wife locked in a room by Alex, became nervous. Find your next read at mvl

Changing his previous timidity, he courageously chose to confront Alex.

"Feng is right! We need to unite and drive this demon away!" Li Ronghao and Luo Jin also bravely raised their voices.

"Admirable courage! I like it!" Alex smiled slightly, suddenly finding the situation interesting.

"I have some food here. I see you all are hungry. If you willingly offer your wives to me, I'll give you something to eat."

Alex suddenly changed his mind, performing a magical act by pulling out a can of beef, some sausages, and instant noodles from his spatial wrap, placing them in front of him.

Seeing the variety of food that Alex brought out, everyone present widened their eyes. Recently, the food supplied by the zombie has been getting scarcer. They haven't eaten their fill for many days. The women here could barely hold on, but these male celebrities were emaciated, showing signs of severe hunger.

Over the past five months, these people had been eating whatever the zombies found. Sometimes it was expired bread, sometimes it was fried junk food past its due date. Occasionally, it was even raw meat of unknown origin, often spoiled or infested with maggots.

However, for survival, they had no choice but to disinfect it with boiling water and find a way to cook it.

Having endured these disgusting and unappetizing foods for a long time, they were now tempted by instant noodles and canned beef, which seemed like luxury items.

"You must be dreaming!" Li Ronghao couldn't contain his anger, glaring fiercely and standing protectively in front of his girlfriend, Yang Chenglin. "Go to hell! Even if I starve to death, I won't let you touch my woman!"

"Since I'm making a deal with you, I won't force you. If you're unwilling, I'll naturally respect your choice. However, I want to make one thing clear: from now on, the food provided by the zombie for this place is off-limits to you men. If you want to eat, either trade with me or find it on your own outside," Alex coldly smiled and said with disdain.

"Why? The food from that zombie is clearly brought up for everyone! Why do you, alone, get to dominate it?" Among the female celebrities who had been relatively silent, one finally spoke up. It was Jing Tian.

Jing Tian has quite a background and has always been a goddess in the entertainment industry. Many big shots protect and promote her. Although her acting and singing skills are subpar, she still gets invited to participate in some blockbuster films. Unfortunately, most of the major productions she joins end up being disappointing, rarely receiving good reviews or achieving high box office success.

Despite her stunning looks, fair skin, and sexy figure, Jing Tian is not widely recognized outside the industry. However, within the entertainment circle, she enjoys considerable fame, partly due to the influential figures backing her. Few dare to cross her because of the powerful people supporting her.

Jing Tian has had a few unsuccessful relationships, all with well-connected individuals. These partners, due to their association with a female celebrity like Jing Tian, actually look down on her. In the world of wealthy heirs, actresses are considered inferior, even lower than a dog's bowl.

Consequently, Jing Tian has remained single, avoiding marriage and keeping her love life out of the public eye.

Even when there were suspicions about her relationship with Zhang He Dou, it was kept low-key and quickly ended. Jing Tian remains an enigmatic figure in the entertainment industry, known for her arrogance and courage resembling that of an heiress.

"In my hands is the knife," Alex declared, revealing a wicked-looking blade that sent shivers through everyone present. It was a menacing aura, the kind that only comes after taking many lives.

These pampered celebrities had never encountered such a ruthless and domineering murderous intent before, and each of them was scared into silence.

"Well said! Mighty!" Cai Xukun's eyes quickly scanned the situation, realizing the gravity of the moment. He hastily crawled to Alex's feet, wearing a flattering expression, and said, "This big brother, I currently don't have a wife, but I can..."

Before finishing his sentence, Cai Xukun tried to throw a flirtatious glance at Alex. Suddenly feeling nauseated, Alex gave him a fierce slap, causing Cai Xukun to tumble to the ground. The force of the slap not only bent his chin but also left his nose crooked due to the impact against the floor.

"Damn! This guy turns out to be relying on plastic surgery!" Alex, looking at the now deformed Cai Xukun, felt thoroughly disgusted. Thinking about the pre-apocalyptic era when Cai Xukun had a legion of crazed young fans due to his appearance, Alex couldn't help but burst into laughter. If those young girls knew that Cai Xukun looked like this, they'd probably regret it bitterly.

Especially those who were willing to share their private photos to defend Cai Xukun from criticism – Alex couldn't help but feel sorry and pitiful for them.

"You! Do you want to die?" Alex turned to look at Lu Han, who was cowering on the ground like a woman, trembling in fear. He teasingly asked, "Do you want to live or not?"

Lu Han, already scared out of his wits, emitted an unpleasant odor, making him repulsive to those around him.
