My Monster Fuses Everything

Chapter 40: 40 Taking Sides

Leaving goods on the truck, even when it's parked right under Building Seven, is hardly a safe thing to do.

If Su Han and his group weren't moving them, it meant they had other plans, which wasn't hard to guess.

Su Han nodded and didn't hide his intentions, "It's very inconvenient and unsafe inside the residential buildings once the water and gas are cut off. Remember the Spider Monsters?"

"You're worried those Spider Monsters will come again?"

Su Han shook his head and said, "They've learned to reproduce. I've seen their nests and eggs in the supermarket."

"Tentacle-mouthed Spiders?!"

Cheng Zhenyong's body shook and he looked shocked, "They, they mutated from humans, right? How could they...?"

It was unimaginable that mutated monsters could reproduce so quickly.

He immediately grasped the gravity of the situation, if even Spider Monsters could breed, then was it possible for the numerous Four-armed Corpses to also reproduce?

Or were other, even more terrifying monsters that they'd never seen before silently multiplying in the depths of the mist, quietly taking over the human world?

He felt a chill rise up his spine, rushing to his head. If the number of mutated monsters could increase, it would be a terrifying prospect for any survivor.

"Who knows what's going on? This apocalypse is probably just beginning."

Su Han was somewhat more composed than Cheng Zhenyong and thought of the enormous red eyeball that almost covered the entire sky. If that were a creature, and everything stemmed from it, then the end was far from over.

"I'm going to take some people who want to leave and find a safe place. Do you and your brothers want to join us?"

Although Cheng Zhenyong was a bit too idealistic, he was capable. Whether it was the speed of an Angel Envoy's Advancement, or his personal organizational and combat abilities, he had not tarnished his reputation as a retired soldier.

What Su Han could not understand was why such a capable, retired soldier from the Armed Forces wouldn't have stayed on to become a non-commissioned officer.

Cheng Zhenyong was silent for a long while, "You're not planning on going to the police station, are you?"

This was his intuition, and his perspective on the post-apocalyptic world was gradually forming. If the current chaos was just the beginning, then the old order was certain to collapse.

And there would be those who were destined to rise amidst the chaos.

He had a strong intuition that Su Han was precisely one of those people, without a doubt.

Su Han nodded and replied, "I'm even more eager to become stronger. Actually, you can too. Advancing to First-level Intermediate so quickly, your Talent must be pretty good."

The improvement of strength was related to the Contract with the Angel Envoy, the strength of the creatures they commanded, and their own Talents.

This was something they had all figured out.

After all, they were all from the same security team and had contracted around the same time, but Zhang Fu needed a bit more time to become First-level Intermediate.

His voice rose, still as calm as it had been that day, causing a jolt in the survivors' hearts as their gazes fell on Su Han.

Especially those who didn't dare to take risks, yet expected others to protect them.

"I will find a new safe zone to settle down. Those with special skills who want to follow me go to Yan Meiyu to register. You can consider it. I will leave in two days."

Su Han spoke succinctly, not revealing what place he had chosen as the safe point.

He needed people at his camp, but he was decidedly not begging for others to join him; that would only tire him with management and hold him back.

"What do we have to give in return?"

Looking toward the direction of the voice, Su Han saw that the first to speak up was not an ordinary person but Zhao Yimin, who had previously joined him on the supermarket exploration.

"Fighting, defense, labor... If you're an ordinary person, I will try my best to help you form a Contract. If you can't fight or it's inconvenient for you to work, let your Angel Envoy do it. My team won't feed freeloaders; the apocalypse has no use for trash. What I can offer is the supplies acquired by the team and safety,"

Su Han said seriously, "Within the scope of my ability, I will help you deal with those monsters."

The implication of his words was clear to everyone—if even he couldn't resist the monsters, then it was an unlucky situation indeed.

Zhao Yimin seemed quite satisfied with the answer. He raised his hand and said, "Count me in."

Having witnessed the formidable strength of Su Han's Four-armed Corpse at the supermarket, he felt that following Su Han would provide more assurance of safety.

"Report to Yan Meiyu,"

Su Han replied, then added, "Everyone can think it over. If you want to join me, register later."

After finishing his words, he left the hall, while Yan Meiyu and Gan Xinglei did not. They stayed to handle the registration.

As soon as Su Han left, the crowd's discussion became even more chaotic.

Both Su Han and Cheng Zhenyong were planning to move. Once they left, there wouldn't be many capable people left in Building Seven. Even if the floors had been cleared, without someone to lead a search for supplies, venturing out was like delivering food to monsters.

Thus, many had already made up their minds—it was time to pick a side.

"Captain Cheng, from what you just said, you're not moving together. So, where will your group be heading?"

Taken aback by the sudden question, Cheng Zhenyong paused before replying, "I'm going to the Armed Forces headquarters; it should be safe there."

Some people's eyes lit up. That's right, how could they forget about the Armed Forces headquarters? Could those monsters be more powerful than guns?

"Captain Cheng, I'll go with you!"

"Right, right, I'll go with you guys!"

In a moment, many people gathered around Cheng Zhenyong. Gan Xinglei glanced at his wife and whispered, "Everyone's going to Captain Cheng's side, what now?"
