Don't run, there are monsters everywhere.

Many years ago, Zhou Kai read a strange question in a book——

If the world ends tomorrow, you can survive.

Not only that, but you also have the privilege of choosing someone to live with you.

So, who will you choose?

companion? parents? child?

Brothers and sisters? Friends and family?

The book gives many options, from your closest relatives, to your classmates, colleagues, neighbors, to people you don’t know at all, but who can bring great value to the post-apocalyptic world, they are all listed one by one. out.

However, the moment he saw this question, Zhou Kai already had the answer in his mind without even reading the options given in the book.

This answer is the only one.

"Lu Linhai, how did you agree to me in the first place?"

Looking at Lu Linhai who suddenly appeared in front of him, Zhou Kai gradually calmed down.

But the resentment in his eyes did not diminish at all.

"You patted your chest and swore to me that you would take good care of Xiaoyun. What was the result?"

"What did you do in the end?!"

"Zhou Kai, I'm sorry..." Lu Linhai felt very guilty about this matter.

"Why?" Zhou Kai ignored Lu Linhai's apology and continued, "Why didn't you die?"

"Why are you still alive? Why?!"

"Why is the person who appears here not Xiaoyun? Why?"

"Zhou Kai, Xiaoyun must be fine, she must still be alive." Until now, Lu Linhai still didn't want to believe that Zhou Kai really wanted to kill Lin Yi.

He felt that Zhou Kai must have lost his mind on impulse because of Zhou Yun's incident, so he did such a thing.

He even felt that Zhou Kai would regret it after he sobered up, so he came over to stop Zhou Kai from making further mistakes.

"I will get Xiaoyun back, and Uncle An, I will definitely find them, I swear!"

There was a trace of bitterness on Zhou Kai's face, and even his voice trembled: "We have all seen the world now."

"There are either aliens or strange creatures out there. Not only that, this world is darker than we imagined."

"Xiaoyun is still so young, how can she survive in this world alone?!"

"No!" Lu Linhai retorted, "That's not the case!"

"Xiaoyun has never been a weak person, she is very strong and -"

"Strong?" Zhou Kai interrupted Lu Linhai and sneered, "To survive in this world, you never need to be strong."

"It depends on strength."

The two people looked at the problem from different angles, so this conversation was destined to be fruitless.

Along the way, not only Lu Linhai, but Lin Yi and others also saw Zhou Yun's growth.

At first, perhaps they were influenced by Zhou Kai and felt that Zhou Yun was a little girl who needed to be taken care of.

But gradually, they discovered that this girl was not like this.

Among them, apart from Zhang Cheng, perhaps Zhou Yun is the one with the strongest heart.

Does Zhou Kai know this?

Of course he knew, and because he knew, he was afraid deep down.

For Zhou Kai, Zhou Yun's existence is not just as simple as a sister, but also a kind of sustenance.

Rather than saying that Zhou Kai has been protecting Zhou Yun, it is better to say that Zhou Kai has been relying on Zhou Yun.

How should young children face it when they suddenly find that the people around them are monsters, and these monsters will eat them?

Zhou Kai, who was a child, didn't know it. He felt panicked and at a loss.

Zhou Kai, who was in this state, saw his sister.

At this moment, he found his direction.

I also found the meaning of living.

However, what should he do if one day Zhou Yun becomes so powerful that he is no longer needed?

Zhou Kai didn't know how to face this problem, so even though Zhou Yun was growing up, he always turned a blind eye.

In his eyes, Zhou Yun has always been the sister who needs his care and protection.

But now, this direction is gone, the people he has always relied on are gone, and the meaning of his life is gone.

For a moment, Zhou Kai seemed to see himself as a child, hiding behind the door and covering his ears, but he could still hear non-human sounds coming from all directions.

At that moment, he fell into confusion.

Lin Yi's existence is the only solution Zhou Kai can think of.

As long as Lin Yi is killed, everything will be remade.

At that time, he will be able to find his direction again.

As for whether Zhou Kai regarded Lin Yi and the others as friends, this question was not important to him at all.

Just like the problem I saw in the book, the end of the world is coming, and you can only save one person.

"Zhou Kai, I——" Lu Linhai wanted to continue to enlighten Zhou Kai.

He was willing to take responsibility for this matter, as long as Zhou Kai could wake up, even if Zhou Kai wanted to kill him.

However, Zhou Kai was not willing to continue talking to him at all.

"Shut up." Zhou Kai interrupted Lu Linhai again.

"What you said makes no sense at all." Zhou Kai's eyes became sharp. He tightened his grip on the gun in his hand and whispered, "After all, you are not a human being at all."

Zhou Kai's words were like a sharp sword, piercing into Lu Linhai's heart.

This is what he feared. When his former friends knew that he was not human, would their relationship remain the same as before?

Lu Linhai felt distressed, but he also knew that there were more important things to do now.

Glancing at the distance, where the battle was fierce, Lu Linhai knew that Lin Yi and Zhang Cheng were there.

He didn't dare to meet them, but at least now, he wanted to stop Zhou Kai from making mistakes.

"I won't let you make mistakes anymore." Lu Linhai took a deep breath and prepared to take action.

"If Xiaoyun knew what you are doing now, she would be sad too."

"I told you to shut up!" Zhou Kai roared, "You are not qualified to mention Xiaoyun at all!"

Zhou Kai raised the gun in his hand and pulled the trigger.

Lu Linhai noticed Zhou Kai's action of raising the gun and quickly dodged to the side.

However, his actions were all within Zhou Kai's expectations.

Enhanced senses, enhanced vision!

With a "bang", energy shot out and hit Lu Linhai's right arm.

The muscles on his arm were torn apart by the energy explosion, and even the bones could be seen. The blood instantly dyed the whole arm red.

Under the torn clothes, the scales that originally covered the back had spread to the arm.

If it weren't for these scales that blocked some of the damage from the explosion, I'm afraid Lu Linhai's right hand would have been shattered by the energy.

"Monster." Zhou Kai saw the scales on Lu Linhai's body and said in a low voice.

Lu Linhai gritted his teeth and looked down at his waist bag.

There was something in it, which was given to him by Ninomiya Shuichi when he went to Kuwait before.

"If you encounter any tricky troubles, use this." Ninomiya Shuichi said so at the time.

Indifferent face, flat tone, an emotionless artificial man.

Lu Linhai frowned and reached into his waist bag.
