Chapter 796 - Human Disaster? Or Natural Disaster? (1/2)

“Don’t need to reason with them, cremate!” The crowd shouted in a surging fervor, immediately shoving aside the two Celestial Medicine Valley disciples, who were wearing unsightly expressions. Several City Lord’s Estate’s guards cut to the chase and promptly carried Feng Manyun’s corpse off to the cremation area.

“Humph! If it’s like this, we brothers need not stay here anymore and ask to be humiliated. As for the examination, we’ll leave it to your omnipotent crown prince consort.” The two Celestial Medicine Valley disciples were so angry that they flicked their sleeves and left, leaving behind a resentful crowd.

Qiao Mu shook her head, still dumbfounded for quite a while.

Two thirty to forty-year-old adult men actually still behaved so immaturely, muddling public affairs with personal matters. Because of private matters, they just abruptly washed their hands of the public affairs they were tasked with. Their behavior was truly disgraceful.

Seeing that there were less than a hundred people remaining in the small plaza, Qiao Mu had them line up before examining them one by one.

After completing their examinations, the civilians were naturally led into the city by the City Lord’s Estate’s guards.

Because there had been live body mutation incidents, City Lord Lin was on high alert. He ordered his men to divide the inner city into five main districts and have all the common people temporarily a.s.semble there for now. Most of them were the elderly, the infirm, women, infants, and children.

As for the young and grown men, the ones that could fight were practically all deployed to the city gate to help out.

Qiao Mu turned around and walked towards the inside of the city. “Have you managed to get in touch with the crown prince yet?”

Following behind her, Lightning shook his head. “For now, still not yet.”

Qiao Mu nodded lightly. Then she’d just take a stroll in the inner city. Even if she didn’t encounter the crown prince, she should be able to see him when she returned to the city gate.

On the entire length of the road, other than Qiao Mu and Lightning, no one else could be seen.

While following along the desolate road, they would occasionally hear some rustling noises in a corner. Every now and then, Qiao Mu would halt and raise the crow repeating crossbow in her hand, shooting one or two zombies that were hiding behind a wall.

The speed and precision of her movements caused even Lightning, who was closely following behind, to involuntarily click his tongue.

The crown prince consort basically didn’t even need to aim. The proficiency and control she possessed over shooting zombies didn’t really seem to be something she achieved overnight.
