The situation was urgent and after the young man finished speaking, he turned to Ling Mo in panic. When he first spoke, Ling Mo was the one who answered so he thought that this young man was the leader of the group.

“Where is your campus?” Ling Mo frowned and asked.

The young man didn’t expect Ling Mo to think about these problems under such an urgent situation. Usually, when people bumped into groups of survivors, they would stick to it like candy! The reason why he invited Ling Mo and the others to join was because firstly, he felt bad and second, he was surprised at their ability to fight.

Although there weren’t a lot of zombies on the way to the side gate, there were a few who were in their way. The young man thought that these people would either turn around immediately because they were unable to fight or they would pay a certain price for it.

But to their surprise, the seemingly weak group – two girls, two teenagers, and one young man, were extremely strong! These scattered zombies were nothing to them! Obviously, these people weren’t burdens, but they were extremely valuable to draw them to his side!

“Ginkgo District! So? Do you wanna go to our campus together?” The young man asked them passionately.

Ginkgo district wasn’t far from here; they only had to go around two roads. These people looked like they just came out. “Why are they heading back already?” Ling Mo didn’t mean to hide his doubts and immediately asked.

The young man quickly explained, “There was a misunderstanding. We came out two days ago trying to collect some supplies. We risked our safety to come here to find something today, but we didn’t expect it to be so dangerous. Now that we’ve run into a problem, we decided to return to our campus immediately to avoid losing more people.”

Is that so… Ling Mo nodded as he turned around to glance at Ye Lian and Xia Na. Xia Na was rather calm at the moment and same as Ye Lian, people wouldn’t be able to see through what she was. But for the sake of their safety, Ling Mo silently controlled Ye Lian to take out a hat from his backpack and put it on Xia Na.

The small move didn’t catch the young man’s attention as Ling Mo was talking to him while doing it.

“Okay, we’ll go with you.”

“Great! Let’s go.” The young man seemed to be delighted. To their campus, having new people joining meant one of two situations. One, they gained an extra mouth to feed and second, they gained more help. Ling Mo and the others were obviously the second type to them and Ling Mo was welcomed anywhere.

The group had no objections in letting Ling Mo and the others join, and most of them even nodded to welcome them. Ling Mo learned more about the group after he directly observed them. There were men and women in the group, all looking rather young. The oldest one out of them was only a little over thirty years old, and the youngest was about fifteen or sixteen.

Although they just experienced a life or death battle, these people’s expressions weren’t horrified at all. Their foreheads were filled with sweat and appeared exhausted. The person with the heaviest expression was a girl about twenty years old. Her eyes were red but no tears came out.

As these people advanced forward, Ling Mo heard the young man comfort the girl softly and learned that the girl’s brother jumped out of the building a step too late as her brother was distracting the zombies. Her brother was dragged back inside right before her eyes and now, probably only skeletons were left.

After they gave up trying to look for supplies, they detoured around the street and went into a small alley. Ling Mo was confused at first but slightly relaxed after observing that the young man seemed to be familiar with the routes.
