A line of roaring vehicles charged towards the hospital, with the reinforced vehicles along the route smashing the zombies into pieces. The entire convoy acted like a meat grinder, pulverizing all the zombies in their path.
Zhang Kun sat in the middle of a modified Hummer, looking at the hospital's sign for Grey Bear City Hospital not far away, his expression filled with satisfaction.
On the large truck behind him, a group of thugs had bloodshot eyes and faces filled with excitement. "Charge, charge, I can't wait anymore..."
"Over a hundred women, there's enough for each of us. Haha!"
"Damn, they're really something. I've already seen several beauties; it's making my mouth water, brothers. Don't you think so?"
"Brothers, full speed ahead..." To ensure their success, Zhang Kun had brought all the men from the base, along with a large number of weapons. He was arrogant, but not foolish, so he had absolute confidence in this attack.
Soon, over a dozen vehicles reached the entrance of the hospital base, and dozens of men charged down with high spirits, shooting and killing the few wandering zombies in the vicinity.
The gathered maids and female warriors all had a change in expression, listening to the roaring of the vehicles and the boisterous laughter of the men. They all felt extremely disgusted.
However, Angelica and the others, as well as most of the female warriors, remained calm. In their view, these men were just coming to offer themselves as food. The only difference was how fast or slow they would die.
Many men pounded the door with their weapons, producing a harsh noise that made the maids' faces turn pale, their eyes filled with fear.
Zhang Kun stepped forward and waved his hand, causing the many men to stop their actions. He had a smug look on his face as he leered at the women inside the hospital. His gaze swept over their weapons, showing a hint of disdain.
"I'm not a fan of using violence because it can lead to casualties. So, I assume you all know better. I'll ask here, is there anyone willing to voluntarily come with me?"
Zhang Kun was speaking the truth. In his view, wasting bullets was unnecessary, and getting into a fight with these women would undoubtedly result in casualties, which would be a loss. If he could get them to surrender willingly, that would be the best outcome.
As if to show support for Zhang Kun's intimidation, the men behind him simultaneously unlocked their safeties, chambered rounds, and the clicking of firearms had started to make some of the more timid women visibly frightened.
Seeing this, Zhang Kun's smug expression grew even more pronounced. He even thought that if he threatened a bit more, some women might kneel down and beg for mercy voluntarily.
In his eyes, during the apocalypse, firearms still carried considerable intimidation. In such situations, once someone took the lead in surrendering, others would quickly follow suit.
Liu Fangfang, Xu Qing, and a few other leading female warriors exchanged glances with the female leaders at the back. They thought the female leaders were reluctant to take action, so they tightly gripped their weapon hilts, ready to attack and kill these men. They had made significant progress in their strength, and withstanding a short-term firearm assault was not a problem. Even if they died, it would be worth it to protect their master's base.
Lisa had a hot temper and was becoming impatient, wanting to take action. However, Angelica restrained her and even waved her hand to signal the female warriors who were eager to attack not to make a move.
Angelica had her own intentions, and she didn't regard the dozens of thugs in front of her as a significant threat. With dozens of people and just as many guns, she only needed half a minute to eliminate them all.
She even noticed South Hua, who was hiding on a building nearby, responsible for sniping.
The reason Angelica didn't rush to take action and allowed Zhang Kun and his men to boast was to test how the women in the base felt about it. She wanted to see if their loyalty to the base was firm enough. If they were easily frightened and willing to leave just because of a few words from others, such individuals were better off expelled from the base early. The base didn't need indecisive individuals who might become liabilities.
Behind the crowd, Camilla had an unpleasant expression. Although she had some resentment toward Derick, she despised thugs like Zhang Kun, who had no regard for the law. She feared for the women in the hospital, as they might suffer unimaginable torment if they fell into the hands of such people.
Despite her feelings towards Derick, Camilla took the initiative to step forward and said to Angelica, "Um, maybe we should notify him to take those firearms away. Zhang Kun and his men have brought quite a few guns, and I'm afraid of what might happen."
Angelica, with a faint smile, glanced at the high-ranking lady but didn't reveal her identity. She calmly responded, "Forget about me, even Lisa and the others could eliminate all these men in less than a minute. There's no need for Derick to come back."
Camilla's body trembled for a moment. She looked at Angelica deeply and chose not to say anything further. She wasn't foolish and didn't want to provoke these women further.
At the hospital entrance, Angelica addressed the women, "So, have you all made your decision? If things escalate later, bullets won't discriminate, and it won't be good if anyone gets injured. I'm giving you the opportunity to cross over. What do you think?"
In the crowd, Sacha supported Tess, and the two of them stood quietly at the back, exchanging a wordless glance. Tess wanted to leave this place, but she was smart enough to know that Zhang Kun wasn't a good person either. Being captured by them might be even more miserable than staying here.
"Sacha, when things get rough, find an opportunity to escape, okay? Get out of here," Tess's voice was weak, but she persisted in saying it to her close friend. Over the past few days, she had learned that Sacha had already lost her virginity to Derick. Naturally, Tess believed that her best friend had been forced into it, and she felt guilty for indirectly causing her friend's suffering.
"Don't say that. What will you do if I leave?" Sacha blushed a bit. She didn't want to leave. Even though she had been virtually forced into losing her virginity to Derick, she didn't feel repulsed. In fact, she had developed some affection for this dominant and assertive man.
"Tess, you underestimate our Master too much, and his women as well. I can guarantee that those men over there won't live through today," Sacha shook her head and said. She had no intention of leaving, and she even tried to persuade her little sister not to take any action.
Tess widened her eyes, as if she had heard an incredible title or term. She looked at Sacha with disbelief, and this reaction embarrassed Sacha, making her blush intensely.
"You...you..."
"Oh well, you'll see for yourself over time. Besides, if I leave alone, where can I go to live in this apocalypse?" Sacha shook her head gently. Tess might not be aware of what had happened while she was locked up and being trained over the past few days, but Sacha had witnessed the powerful scenes of Derick imparting abilities to these women firsthand. So, she believed that in this apocalyptic world, there was hardly a safer place than this, and she didn't really want to leave either.
Tess felt a sense of guilt in her heart, realizing that she had wronged Sacha. She didn't say anything further and just watched the scene quietly.
One minute, two minutes, three minutes passed...
Zhang Kun was starting to get impatient. The women on the other side still hadn't made any moves. Seeing this, his face darkened.
"Damn it, if you won't accept the drink, you'll have to accept the punishment. It looks like you're looking for death," he said fiercely to the women.
"Master, we're not afraid. Let's fight them."
"Yeah, we're not afraid of these rotten men. We're ready to die if we have to," a few of the more loyal female warriors shouted.
At this moment, Zhang Kun's face became as ugly as if he had eaten a fly. He hadn't expected that what should have been an easy attack had turned into a confrontation with fearless women. It seemed like bad luck, and he had wasted bullets for nothing.
The shouts and battle cries of the women further fueled his anger. "Don't you know that bullets can kill people? Damn it, open fire, open fire!"
Before Zhang Kun could finish his words, he heard a voice in his earpiece, the voice of his most trusted subordinate, Nan Hua. "Boss, something's not right. Retreat, retreat immediately, cease firing..."
