Chapter 88: Aren't they afraid of zombies
"Lily, it was Patrick who forced you, not me and Natalie. And haven't I been treating you well these days? Please, help me plead for mercy!"
"Yes, Lily, considering these days we've been relying on each other, spare us, please!"
Natalie also pleaded.
"You, always hiding behind, giving orders! The most difficult and tiring work is done by me! Clearing out zombies is done by Patrick and me. I don't see where you've been good to me!"
Lily sneered.
"And don't think I don't know, it was you who sold me out to Patrick! As for Natalie, dare you say you haven't been colluding with them, trying to make me yield to them?"
"I haven't!" Natalie denied vehemently. Then she glanced at Oliver, having an idea.
"I've been kept in the dark all along! I didn't know they were planning to deal with you! That beast Patrick, even after having me, wasn't satisfied, and actually targeted you. It serves him right to have his groin kicked to pieces! And you, Oliver, you pervert, a man with no balls! Look at yourself, fat-headed and big-eared, from the Mediterranean, yet still have the audacity to have ideas about Lily.
Could a celestial like Lily even look at you? I can't stand you! Do you know why I was willing to be with Patrick and not you? Because Patrick is strong and brave, daring to fight zombies, unlike you, who only hide behind. Lily, a young girl, is better than you in every way!"
Natalie's tongue was like a machine gun, firing off insults, leaving Oliver dumbfounded. When he regained his senses, he immediately exploded in anger.
"Damn it, who do you think you are? Who volunteered to help take down Lily? And, in just a few days, Patrick had his way with you?"
Natalie was stunned to hear this.
She hadn't expected Patrick to reveal such private matters, let alone have them aired out in public.
Her face turned as red as a beetroot. Then she screamed in rage.
"You're talking nonsense! I'll tear your mouth apart!"
Natalie, like a shrew, pounced on Oliver, scratching, clawing, and biting at him!
Elijah and the others watched the drama unfold.
Suddenly, Natalie let out a miserable scream. Oliver had plunged a knife into her stomach. Oliver, on the other hand, looked quite pitiful.
The little hair he had left was pulled out by Natalie. His head, face, and neck were covered in blood from being scratched and clawed at.
"Damn it, you stinky bitch dare to hit me? I'll kill you!"
He pulled out the knife and stabbed her a few more times.
Natalie weakly scratched at Oliver a few times before collapsing on the ground.
Oliver withdrew the knife, his hands covered in blood.
He then turned to Elijah and the others, with a determined look on his face.
"Brother, give me a way out! Otherwise, I'll open the door and we'll all die together!"
Elijah made an inviting gesture.
"You're welcome!"
Oliver was stunned!
"I'll open the door and let the zombies in. We'll all be done for!"
He repeated, thinking Elijah hadn't understood.
"Oh, are you stupid? Didn't I say at the beginning for you to open the door and leave?"
Daisy looked at him as if he were an idiot.
Lily was somewhat worried, wondering why they were so confident. But she also prepared herself mentally. If the zombies really broke in, she would rush to the front and buy them time to escape.
Oliver was completely bewildered! He didn't know what Elijah and the others were thinking.
How could they dare ask him to open the door and let the zombies in?
Weren't they afraid of death? No, nobody wasn't afraid of death.

Did that mean there were no zombies outside? Were they really planning to give him a way out?
Oliver was suspicious. He hesitated and placed his hand on the door.
"I...I really am opening it!"
Elijah ignored him and said to Daisy and Lily, "Step back a bit, I'll stretch my muscles. Daisy, watch out for any escapees!"
"Okay, Elijah!"
Seeing their nonchalant attitude, Oliver gritted his teeth and abruptly opened the door.
The sunlight streamed into the warehouse, momentarily blinding Oliver.
When he looked outside, he couldn't help but freeze.
Dozens of zombies turned their heads simultaneously, staring at him.
Oliver felt like he had fallen into an icy pit, his whole body shivering with cold as the zombies immediately lunged at him.
His legs felt like lead, unable to move.
He muttered to himself, "Aren't they afraid of zombies? Madmen, they're all mad! Heh... hehe... hehehe!"
Then, the zombies overwhelmed his body.
With dozens of zombies, I need to finish this quickly to avoid attracting more!
Elijah shook his spear and charged at the incoming zombies!
He dared to let Oliver open the door because he was confident. He had already noticed from occasional glimpses of mutated female zombies on the car outside that the zombie horde outside had dispersed for some unknown reason, leaving only a dozen or so lingering nearby.
A dozen zombies were no match for the current Elijah.
He wasn't afraid; he just needed to be careful not to hurt Lily.
As for Daisy, he wasn't worried.
The dim environment of the warehouse was conducive to her abilities, and if she wanted to hide, no one could find her.
Although Lily wanted to help, she was stopped by Daisy. "These few zombies, Elijah can handle them. You'll only get in his way!"
Indeed!
Lily watched Elijah wield his spear. Every zombie he touched fell to the ground, and soon the dozen zombies were exterminated.
"So strong!"
Lily couldn't help but marvel.
"Right!"
As if praising himself.
Daisy also felt proud.
Elijah walked to the door, kicked the unrecognizable Oliver, who had been bitten all over, to the side, and accompanied the equally mutilated Natalie. Then he closed the door.
To prevent Oliver and Natalie from turning into zombies, Elijah destroyed their brains before starting to deal with the nearby zombie corpses.
"Lily, are you not afraid of corpses?"
"Not at all! I helped clean up the corpses before in the mall!"
Seeing Elijah unharmed, Lily was very happy. She showed off her arm as she spoke. "I'm very strong!"
"That's great! Lily, could you help me clean up the bodies?" Daisy asked, then walked forward and took out a dagger to start opening the skulls.
"Huh? Are you looking for something in their brains?" Lily exclaimed in surprise.
"Yes, Lily, how did you know?" Lily didn't immediately answer. Instead, she rummaged in her pocket and pulled out six sparkling and translucent crystals.
"Are you looking for this?" Lily asked.
"Wow, so many corpse cores? Where did Lily get them?" Daisy jumped up excitedly.
Elijah also stopped what he was doing. "Is this called a corpse core? When I chopped the zombie's head too hard before, their brains split in half, and this fell out..."
Lily scratched her head, feeling a little embarrassed.
