Su Changxing was silent for a moment and said, "I love dogs, what youâre doing is not right... they are survivors of this world, after all."
Then, he bent down, picked up the Extraordinary Crystals from the two corpses, and put them in his backpack, saying, "I killed this one, so this crystal is mine. This person was killed by you guys, so consider this crystal a gift of thanks to me."
"..."
Zhang Daxi was silent for two seconds and asked, "What are these crystals?"
"A kind of material," Su Changxing said, looking towards the darkness on the other end of the street, "Someone else is coming; youâd better leave here right away."
Having said that, he took off in a sprint in another direction.
The two watched Su Changxingâs figure as he ran away, feeling a sense of dĂ©jĂ vu as if they had seen this scene somewhere before.
Xu Chuâs Sweat immediately got up from the ground, shouting, "Old Two, we should run too; those coming should be survivors as well."
The two of them then followed in the direction Su Changxing went, but by this time, Su Changxingâs silhouette was nowhere to be seen.
"Headhunter, those two seem to have had problems; from my position, I canât sense their vital signs."
A Hunter carrying a Wooden Crossbow said in a deep voice. At this distance, not sensing vital signs basically meant death.
At the front, the Long Scar Hunter said expressionlessly, "It seems we underestimated those two from the Otherworld. To think they could kill Wang Tao and his people; we were careless."
Another Hunter said, "They ran to another street, they seemed to have preemptively discovered our position."
The five of them arrived near the intersection, roughly examining the two corpses lying on the ground.
The Hunter carrying the Wooden Crossbow analyzed, "Wang Tao was shot through the head with a bow and arrow. Do those two humans from the Otherworld use bows?"
The Long Scar Hunter said indifferently, "Letâs catch up and deal with these two small fry first."
The five of them immediately followed the direction Xu Chuâs Sweat and his companion left in. The distance between them wasnât too far; they could even see each otherâs faint shadows.
"Damn, theyâre catching up."
Xu Chuâs Sweat looked back, gasping for breath, although channeling some kind of energy within his body could allow him to recover quickly, but after prolonged running, he was exhausted.
He felt as if he could collapse at any moment.
"Whizz~"
A Crossbow Arrow flew straight from behind, piercing into Xu Chuâs Sweatâs yet-to-heal back.
"Ah~"
A shrill scream.
Xu Chuâs Sweat fell to the ground again, he couldnât remember which injury this was today, once more mobilizing the crimson energy in his body to heal his tissues.

Su Changxing, from a distance, saw four or five people running this way from the other side of the street. It was obvious; they were most likely survivors.
He ran 800 meters along the street, found a suitable spot, climbed to the second floor of a building from its exterior wall, cleared the room of zombies, and crouched by the window to observe the street situation.
Respond to all changes by remaining unchanged.
In no time, Su Changxing saw Xu Chuâs Sweat and his partner sprinting this way, followed by a Crossbow Arrow striking Xu Chuâs Sweat.
Xu Chuâs Sweat fell to the ground, his eyes glowed red in the night, appearing especially ghoulish, unlike a human.
The information from "True Knowledge" kept changing.
[His life structure is increasingly diverging from humans]
[The life fluctuation is tending towards Extraordinary]
Su Changxing couldnât judge Xu Chuâs Sweatâs condition, but his intuition said it wasnât a good change.
A life structure deviating from humanity is transformation, isnât it?
He slowly drew the bowstring, gazing at the Hunters who were catching up, a killing intent flashing in his eyes.
The cityâs street terrain was complex, generally speaking, using the Shadow Bow, the arrowâs trajectory wouldnât be visible, making it difficult for the opponent to immediately detect his position.
At this moment, the Hunters behind had already caught up. Zhang Daxi was ready with his weapon, prepared to fight to the death.
Xu Chuâs Sweat pulled out the arrow from his back with one hand and slowly stood up, standing next to Zhang Daxi, saying:
"If we can die taking even one of them with us, itâs worth it. Damn it, after being a mercenary for a lifetime, this time Iâll hire myself."
Zhang Daxi opened his mouth to say something, but another Crossbow Arrow pierced Xu Chuâs Sweatâs abdomen.
He paused and said, "I was going to say, watch out for the Crossbow Arrow."
Xu Chuâs Sweat almost fell again, but managed to stabilize himself, pulling out the arrow forcefully, though not much blood flowed, and the redness in his eyes grew even brighter.
The Hunters saw the two had stopped and also slowed their pace to observe the surroundings.
Su Changxing silently calculated the distance; within fifty meters, his hit rate could reach 100%, and if he hit, heâd be able to kill one person.
Just as he was about to take action, suddenly, two shadows darted across the sky.
Two arrows were shot towards the five Hunters.
One missed, the other was sliced in half by the Long Scar Hunter.
The Hunter with the Wooden Crossbow shouted, "In the alley on the left."
Su Changxing was also taken aback, not expecting there would be others here, his originally taut bowstring loosened a bit, before he pulled it tight again, aiming at the closest Hunter to him.
At this moment, the attention of the seven people on the street was all drawn towards the opposite alley, greatly increasing Su Changxingâs chance of success.
The Hunterâs position was Extreme Thunderer, and according to the Headhunter, Extreme Thunderers typically have weak Perception, so his chance was high.
One arrow.
Upon releasing the bowstring, one of the Hunters at the edge fell sideways, an arrow protruding from his head.
Kill confirmed.
The sudden development stunned everyone present.
The Hunter holding the Crossbow Arrowâs pupils constricted, completely unaware of the direction the arrow came from, but surely not from the alley, as the direction of the teammateâs arrow wasnât pointing this way.
A shadowy glow flickered in his eyes as he looked towards Su Changxing, saying, "Over here."
Xu Chuâs Sweatâs face broke into a cruel smile, whispering, "That kid didnât leave, thatâs quite decent; the ones in the alley must be from the Security Bureau... we can wipe out this group."
Su Changxing didnât expose himself after firing one arrow, nor did he make any movement, trying to hide his presence as much as possible.
Some positions have detection methods, however, Dreamers also have some concealment abilities. At this distance, the opponents might not be able to accurately locate his position.
The Long Scar Hunter didnât hesitate, decisively saying, "Letâs kill them first."
