Edge of the Apocalypse

Chapter 135: Chapter 127: 1v12

Thursday, 7:00 a.m.

After hanging up Officer Wang’s call, all three roommates were already out of bed.

"I can’t believe Youcai. Yesterday, he was telling me Lin Zhixue was just so-so and he wouldn’t settle for anyone less than a huge star. Then last night, he ran off with that Yaoyao girl. Is she even half as pretty as Lin Zhixue? He didn’t even come back all night. Damn it!"

Huang Zhiqiang was already fuming first thing in the morning.

"Alright, alright. Once your wife’s husband turns into a zombie, you’ll have company. Two of them!"

Hearing Yu Dong’s teasing, Huang Zhiqiang became even more furious.

"How is that fair, Dongzi! How could you set Youcai up with someone so great and find me one with a husband... I hate you, Dongzi! I want Lin Zhixue!"

He was already upset about being called a ’big chubby boy’ at the bar yesterday. Seeing Zhao Youcai score so big made him feel even more bitter.

He even dreamed last night that he was actually holding a big chubby baby boy... It was terrifying!

"Alright, alright. Lin Zhixue is gone. Where am I supposed to find her for you... Get ready to move out. We’ve got money!"

The ten million had arrived!

Once Yu Dong and the others got the money, they could continue their procurement run!

After the three of them left the dorm, Yu Dong scanned the crowd and spotted a tall, thin figure at the entrance of the convenience store.

"Xufeng, you go separately from us."

Yu Dong and Huang Zhiqiang ordered two sets of jianbing guozi at the school gate, planning to eat breakfast on the way.

While they were waiting, Yu Dong casually glanced around, his sharp eyes suddenly narrowing.

’Something’s not right...’

There were some very unfamiliar faces around the school gate, people Yu Dong hadn’t seen in his first life.

He remembered that in his first life, when he died completely oblivious, he had spent those seven days just going about his routine at Yanhai University—attending classes, working his part-time job, and having his jianbing guozi eaten by Xufeng...

At this exact time on Thursday morning in his first life, he had also been at the gate buying jianbing guozi.

Most of the surroundings were the same as in his first life. Every passing face was one he’d seen in his memories. His actions hadn’t significantly affected things here at Yanhai University.

Except for those "street hustler" types who looked like trouble!

Yu Dong also saw a van parked at the school gate.

Under these circumstances, Yu Dong didn’t need to think twice to know they were here for him.

’So... was Officer Wang exposed? Are these Yin Shuangyang’s men?’

’Or are they from Mei’s side?’

Yu Dong quickly ruled out Mei. Her people were extremely discreet, clearly professionals. In contrast, these "street hustlers" looked more like common thugs and lowlifes who were eager to fight.

There were four people watching him outside, but in that van... there was no telling how many more might pile out.

What should he do?

The batter was spinning on the griddle. The old master’s hand spread it thin, and the base of the jianbing guozi gradually solidified and took shape under the high heat...

Yu Dong immediately tried to call Officer Wang, but found the number he had just used was no longer connecting.

He tried calling Officer Wang’s personal cell phone number and found that it was also unreachable.

He had likely already made his move.

Yu Dong considered his options... Should he go straight back to the university and forget about the money for now, waiting until it was safe to act after Officer Wang had taken care of everyone?

Or should he find a way to get the money?

"Here, your jianbing."

The vendor handed over a jianbing, and Huang Zhiqiang took it.

"Heheh, mine’s the one with no scallions. Yours is next, Dongzi."

The batter was poured onto the griddle again... Yu Dong was running out of time.

He had to make a decision before the second jianbing guozi was ready...

This money was a hot potato now.

As Yu Dong was thinking, RING RING RING~

His phone rang.

It was Xufeng.

"Dongzi, the oil tanker has arrived. It’s docking at B Port for five hours and will leave after unloading. Once you get the money, meet us at the office. The lawyer and I are on our way there now. We’ll sign the purchase agreement with them soon. Since our company is small, they won’t unload for us until they receive the payment."

Xufeng had rented an office at the port and put up a sign for their small company, making it look legitimate.

"Okay, I got it... I’ll get the money to you."

Yu Dong took a deep breath.

Time waits for no one!

He had to get the money immediately. That was the only way to secure a substantial amount of diesel and gasoline, which they needed to deal with the zombie tides.

Without that fuel, the drones he bought for a million yuan would be of little use.

’In that case... let’s give it a shot.’

Yu Dong’s eyes turned icy, and the murderous aura he had been suppressing reignited.

These thugs and lowlifes were not good people, and he, Yu Dong... was no saint either.

"Your jianbing is ready."

Yu Dong took it and chewed fiercely.

"Huang, let’s go!"

The two of them hailed a cab and rushed to Huangyang Port.

The four people behind them got into the van and followed.

After arriving at Huangyang Port, Yu Dong took out a key, and he and Huang Zhiqiang entered warehouse A-50, quickly shutting the door.

The van stopped on the road. Twelve men piled out, all with suspicious bulges under their clothes.

The leader, a man with long, center-parted hair, waved his hand, and the twelve men surrounded the entrance to warehouse A-50.

These warehouses all had only one entrance and exit; he wasn’t worried about his targets escaping.

After waiting a while, there was still no sound from inside...

"You, knock on the door."

A lackey was told to knock. The door slowly opened... The twelve men outside had their hands behind their backs, ready to grab their weapons and rush in...

What greeted them was a long white wax wood staff.

BAM!

A staff shot out from inside, jabbing the knocking lackey right in the forehead. His skull dented, and he collapsed on the spot, his eyes rolling back as he began to convulse.

Yu Dong walked out, clad in a stab-proof suit and a helmet.

In his hand was a long staff with no spearhead.

The others were startled for a moment, then they all drew their weapons and charged at Yu Dong.

BAM!

Yu Dong thrust his staff out again, fast and sharp!

It jabbed directly into the stomach of the closest thug. The piercing pain made him clutch his stomach and kneel on the spot.

His face contorted, he couldn’t catch his breath, and he was instantly out of the fight.

A full-power strike from Yu Dong could pierce a zombie’s skull. This full-power jab to the stomach had severely damaged his internal organs.

With two strikes of his staff, Yu Dong had taken out two men!

Then, he retreated back into the warehouse.

"Get in there and grab him!"

The remaining men were already surrounding Yu Dong, holding machetes, daggers, and steel pipes. They were clearly the kind of hired muscle who played for keeps.

They could see Yu Dong was skilled with the staff; getting close meant getting hit. They had to swarm him to negate the advantage of his long weapon.

Ten goons viciously swarmed inside!!!

The center-parted man shut the warehouse doors. He clutched a butterfly knife, his eyes sinister.

Muffled sounds of fighting, pained cries, and impacts came from inside...

After a long while...

Yu Dong, covered in blood, walked out of the warehouse. Behind him, twelve unconscious bodies lay scattered about.

Huang Zhiqiang followed, trembling as he carried an Explosive-Proof Shield, looking at Yu Dong as if he were a god of war.

At that moment, he believed... Yu Dong was definitely a Reincarnator.

If Yu Dong hadn’t specifically removed the spearhead, few of these men... would have survived.

Yu Dong looked up at the sunlight, dropped the staff, stripped off his combat suit, and tossed it into the warehouse before shutting the door.

"Let’s go, Huang. Time to get the money from A-30."

This warehouse, A-50, was one they had rented to store equipment. They had just come here to armor up and grab their weapons.

"Okay... Are you alright, Dongzi?"

"I’m fine. They were just small fries."

Yu Dong could tell these weren’t the ruthless professionals who had been tailing Xufeng; they were just hired thugs. He could handle them.

The two walked to warehouse A-30 and used Officer Wang’s key to open the door...

WHOOSH~

Suddenly, a group of police officers holding firearms rushed out from inside.

"Get down!"

"Everybody down!"

Then, the officers rushed past Yu Dong and Huang Zhiqiang, ran outside, and looked around, but they didn’t see anyone suspicious.

"Strange... Officer Wang said someone would be following them. Where are they?"

After confirming there was no danger, the police let Yu Dong stand up.

"Yu Tongxue, did you notice anyone following you on your way here?"

"Well..."

Yu Dong looked at the officers and gave a bitter smile.

He finally understood... Officer Wang had played him.

There was no ten million here at all. This was a trap he’d set to catch Yin Shuangyang’s thugs.

"Come on, I’ll take you to them."

Yu Dong led the police to warehouse A-50. When he opened it, they saw the thugs lying scattered on the floor, groaning.

The police: "???"

The way everyone looked at Yu Dong changed.

Is this a fucking college student???

Just then, Jing Yanwei, the female officer who was always with Officer Wang, slipped a piece of paper into Yu Dong’s pocket and whispered in his ear:

"Officer Wang put the thing you wanted here..."

She then nodded at Yu Dong. "You should call Officer Wang back. He’s waiting for our update."

Yu Dong picked up his phone, then put it down again.

"Before I make that call, there’s one more thing I need your help with..."
