Outside the gates of a water purification government facility, two young men wobbled as they walked forward.
One person was supporting the other as the second one looked severely injured, not to mention that he lacked a couple of limbs. One of his legs was missing along with his right hand.
But nevertheless, the two young men looked very lively and their faces showed traces of tremendous courage along with tiredness as they wobbled forwards.
"You there! Stop." A loud voice suddenly echoed out of the security booth at the entrance of the facility. "If you take another step forward, you will have to face the consequences!" A man's gruff voice informed them.
The two young men immediately stopped on hearing this loud announcement. They looked as if they didn't want to create any unnecessary trouble and obediently listened to the person.
Before long, a tall and muscular man walked out of the security booth. He had a big machine gun in his hand and he was wearing the green and brown military uniform.
"What business do the both of you have here? What brings you here?"
The handicapped person leaned more on his friend as he was not able to support himself well while continuing to stand at a single spot.
Watching this, the guard's expression visibly softened up a little.
"Sir, we are just normal university students? Are you with the government? Is there a shelter here? Please. Please. Please let us in. I can fight for the both of us."
The young man who was speaking was very shaken and he sounded as if he had just barely survived by clutching his life in his hands.
"It's alright. Calm down first." The guard raised his hand, asking him to take a few deep breaths and calm down.
"Let me tell you this. We do have a shelter here, but I cannot take you both in just yet."
"Ah! Why? My friend here needs help. He is very badly injured. Isn't the government supposed to help people? Why are you sending us back?"
A lean man who was standing above the compound at that spot immediately jumped down without showing any signs of fear. "This one is mine!" He shouted.
Two other men walked over and stood beside him, but didn't appear to be concerned about the beast. Qin Hua was rather surprised. She didn't expect this group to be so experienced.
In reality, if one started to fight early on in the apocalypse and managed to gather enough momentum and strengthen and condition oneself, facing a single mutated beast like this wasn't a big deal.
