Chapter 56: Unexpected Encounter on the Road

After I successfully acquired a Land Rover SUV, I waved at my sister and Big Gold Tooth, signaling them to come over.

Once they approached, I tossed the car keys directly to Big Gold Tooth, then led my sister towards the back seats of the car.

My initial intention for bringing Big Gold Tooth and the other two was for them to guide the way.

If not now, then when?

Big Gold Tooth caught the keys I threw, and without a single word of complaint, he settled into the driver’s seat and started the engine.

Ever since I had revealed my true strength, Big Gold Tooth and his two companions had been thoroughly subdued.

Their newfound docility was a stark contrast to their previous arrogance and domineering attitudes; they seemed like entirely different people.

Observing their behavior, I had originally intended to send them packing the moment they helped me locate Brother Li. If they refused to leave and instead sided with Brother Li, I wouldn’t have found it troublesome either.

After all, killing one was as good as killing another. As an ability user now, I wouldn’t find myself in a difficult position simply because I was facing a group of ordinary people.

However, their current attitude was quite good, and at this moment, I desperately needed to recruit some people as subordinates to work for me.

The most important task right now was to find people to collect núcleos for me.

My speed in killing zombies was swift, but even with my sister, there were only two of us. To acquire more núcleos, I needed to increase my manpower to boost our efficiency.

If they performed well, I might consider taking them on permanently.

But nothing was certain yet. It was better to observe the situation first!

Just as I was deep in thought, Big Gold Tooth was already speeding down the road.

This stretch of highway had few obstacles, so Big Gold Tooth no longer drove cautiously. Instead, he pushed the vehicle to its maximum speed, aiming to reach Brother Li’s factory in the west of the city as soon as possible.

“Brother Bai, once we reach the factory, how do you plan to deal with Brother Li?”

“That’s right! Brother Li used to dabble in the underworld and even smuggled weapons, so he has a significant stash of arms and ammunition. You alone won’t be able to withstand numerous bullets.”

“What are you two babbling about? Just shut up and listen to what Brother Bai has to say!”

During the journey, Little Seven and Curly gazed at me with shining eyes. As we drew closer to Brother Li’s factory, their curiosity intensified, wondering what method I would use to counter Brother Li’s guns.

After all, while the human body contained infinite energy, they had never heard of anyone who could withstand bullets.

As the two of them questioned me, Big Gold Tooth, who was driving, wasn’t idle. He first reprimanded them a few times, then shifted the topic to me, prompting me to speak.

It wasn’t just these three; even my sister, sitting beside me, had her eyes wide and ears perked up, eager to hear my plan.

“I have no plan. I’ll decide when we get there!”

I turned my head, gazing at the ruined city outside the car window. Facing their expectant stares, I offered no useful information.

That was simply the truth; I hadn’t thought of a plan beforehand.

When I encountered Brother Li, I would simply fight him! There was no chance of reconciliation between us anyway. Today, Brother Li was destined to die by my hand.

As for the threat of bullets, my two newly awakened abilities weren’t for show.

I was confident that these two abilities would definitely be more formidable than bullets.

“Brother Bai is mighty! To dare seek revenge on Brother Li without any plan, that’s absolutely—”

Big Gold Tooth was driving and flattering me simultaneously, but before he could finish his sentence, his eyes suddenly caught sight of a woman appearing in front of their car, causing him to slam on the brakes.
