Seeing the survivors' reaction, Shen Jinzhe sneered, his tone laced with mockery as he said, "In our current situation, you should think about your own survival first. Kindness is a luxury. If you want to be kind by sacrificing yourself, that's your own choice." frёewebnoѵel.ƈo๓
"But if you want to act kind by forcing others to help through guilt and moral pressure, that's not kindness—that's hypocrisy."
"All of you should know that if not for my captain's girlfriend, my team wouldn't have bothered to help you at all. So, if you still want to stay, you had better shut your mouths and keep your fake kindness and little schemes to yourselves."
"Next time I hear anyone question my team's decisions again, I will throw you out and let you be as kind as you want. Do you understand?" he asked coldly.
As his sharp gaze swept over them, the survivors quickly lowered their heads. Compared to the man they called Vice-Captain, this young man's gaze was far more terrifying.
After a long silence, the survivors finally nodded and replied in low voices, "U-understood."
While the Phantom Team had no significant issues with the survivors, the Eagle Team was starting to have a headache.
Thanks to their previous training, the team and the survivors had improved significantly as more and more people awakened their abilities.
But with the rise of more ability-users, it became harder for the Eagle Team to control them, as most of the Eagle members were still ordinary people. Even with guns, it wouldn't be easy to subdue someone with powers.
Not to mention, after the last time they were surrounded by zombies, the Eagle Team had lost several members—further weakening their strength.
At that moment, as they were preparing to leave the gas station, a group of ability-users stepped forward and blocked their path.
Seeing this, Wei Ying asked, "Comrade, what are you doing?"
Standing across from him, a man with bulging muscles on his left leg said, "Captain Wei, we want to leave—and we came to ask for supplies."
Wei Ying frowned as he looked at them. The group totaled seventeen people, most of whom were ability-users. Only two women in the group were ordinary people.
If they left now, it would mean fewer fighters and more burden on the rest. But given their current power, the Eagle Team couldn't force them to stay either.
After a moment of thought, he nodded and said, "You can get supplies by exchanging crystal cores."
Hearing his words, the group laughed, and the man replied, "Captain Wei, you are joking, right? We have been protecting these people and your team, and now you are asking us to pay?"
At that moment, Wei Ying understood they had never intended to pay.
Although the Phantom Team had said they would provide extra supplies for survivors, it still had to be done under proper rules—free handouts would violate the system he had just established and would cause chaos in his team.
"Comrade, you know the rules. There are no free supplies. Either you exchange them for crystal cores, or you get nothing," Wei Ying said firmly.
As soon as he finished, the man was angered and said, "Such arrogance! You are asking for it!"
Crack!
