Chapter 17: Assault on the Flying Eagle Gang

Led by Officer Miao, the three of them quickly found a Flying Eagle Gang outpost on the south side of the city.

Since the Flying Eagle Gang didn't have many members, they only stationed five people here.

However, because these five were hiding inside the building, taking them all out at once was a bit tricky. In the end, Wang Bin decided on an assassination.

The three of them sneaked into the building and searched the first floor but found no one.

"Brother Wang, there's usually no one on the first floor!"

"Why?"

"They're afraid of zombies getting in!"

"Oh!"

The three of them quietly approached the stairwell and immediately saw a person at the second-floor stairwell, holding only a rusty machete.

"Brother Wang, let me handle this one!" Guan Xiaoyue perked up when she saw the person wasn't armed with a gun.

"Alright, be careful not to let him make any noise!" Wang Bin trusted Guan Xiaoyue's skills and, with a word of caution, let her deal with the person.

Guan Xiaoyue nodded, drew a dagger from her waist, and stealthily moved up the stairs.

Her movements were so light that she made no sound at all, quickly getting behind the person.

Before the person could react, she covered his mouth with one hand and swiftly slashed his throat with the dagger in her right hand. In no time, the person was dead.

They gently moved the body into a nearby room and continued their search.

There was only one person on the second floor; the others were on the third floor, as they could already hear the sound of card games from above.

The three of them reached the third-floor stairwell and peeked in to see three people playing cards, while another listlessly stared out the window.

Seeing that the remaining people were all there, Wang Bin and the others didn't hesitate. They aimed their guns and fired. After a burst of gunfire, all four were taken out.

Officer Miao's shooting accuracy and speed were the fastest; Wang Bin and Guan Xiaoyue only managed to fire one shot each, while Officer Miao had already fired twice.

After clearing the area, they found two more guns, leaving the knives behind.

With these two guns, they could almost ensure everyone had a gun.

"Let's head back and see what the Mad Sand Gang and Flying Eagle Gang do next!"

Having taken out a Flying Eagle outpost, the first step of their plan was complete, and Wang Bin led the two back.

As Wang Bin said, they would next observe the Mad Sand Gang and Flying Eagle Gang's reactions and then make corresponding plans.

When Wang Bin and the others returned to their base and recounted the day's events, everyone was thrilled.

Most of them had suffered at the hands of these gangs, and hearing that nearly ten people were taken out in one go was immensely satisfying.

Seeing Guan Xiaoyue and Officer Miao's excellent marksmanship, Wang Bin felt it was necessary to improve his own shooting skills, so he took an air gun for practice.

The air gun was very quiet, so there was little worry about being discovered.

Officer Miao, curious about Wang Bin's training, wondered how someone with ordinary shooting skills and average abilities had survived this long, and more intriguingly, how he managed to acquire so much luxury food.

"Practicing shooting?"

"Yes!"

"Want me to teach you?"

"Sure, thank you so much!"

"I'm the one who should be thanking you. You've helped me find my old self again!"

"Your old self?"

"Yes! Before the apocalypse, I was a police officer with a strong sense of justice. After the apocalypse, I tried my best to protect those who needed me, but they died one by one in front of me. As people dwindled, everyone fought over food, and I changed! I began to question my life and beliefs. Although I still tried to protect my companions, I lost the will to fight against evil forces!"

"Do you know who the gang leaders of the four city gangs are? They were all former thugs, some of whom I even arrested. Yet, in the blink of an eye, they became the most powerful people in the city. They gathered a large group and started preying on others, and I could only watch their atrocities helplessly. I felt useless!"

"No, you're strong and brave! In this world, not only did you survive, but you also protected Bao and the others. You're truly remarkable!" Seeing Officer Miao's sadness, Wang Bin quickly comforted her.

"Really? Today, you took me to attack the Mad Sand Gang and helped me find my old self again. Thank you!"

"You're welcome! Let's work together to eliminate the forces here and take Bao and the others to the gathering place!"

"Ah! You're willing to come with us?"

"Yes, this isn't a place to stay for long. Once I finish some things, we'll leave together!"

"Okay!"

Officer Miao, knowing Wang Bin's plan to help her take Bao and the others to the gathering place, was very happy and taught Wang Bin shooting with extra care.

The Flying Eagle Gang quickly learned that one of their outposts was attacked, causing panic.

The previous night's battle in the north of the city had already alerted the Flying Eagle Gang to an impending conflict. Now, with their outpost attacked the next day, and the location being near the Mad Sand Gang's border, the gang members speculated that the Mad Sand Gang might be planning an assault.

Their spies also learned about the outcome of the battle between the Tiger Head Gang and the Giant Bear Gang. The Tiger Head Gang had completely wiped out the Giant Bear Gang, but they suffered heavy losses, with only a dozen survivors.

Moreover, after occupying the Giant Bear Gang's building, they were besieged by thousands of zombies.

Previously, the Tiger Head Gang and Giant Bear Gang had restrained the Mad Sand Gang. Now, with the Giant Bear Gang eliminated and only a dozen surviving Tiger Head members trapped by zombies, no one could oppose the Mad Sand Gang. It was clear the Mad Sand Gang would soon attack them.

At this moment, there were three opinions within the Flying Eagle Gang. The first was to surrender to the Mad Sand Gang, which Boss Fei would never agree to.

If they surrendered, he would lose his position as boss and become Brother Xing's underling.

Having been the boss for so long, he would never agree to become someone else's underling.

The second opinion was to leave the city immediately and find a gathering place or seize territory in another city.

Many supported this plan, but with no gasoline left, they could only rely on their legs to reach another city, uncertain of what might happen along the way, or if there were even stronger forces there.

Boss Fei was hesitant about this plan and would only consider leaving as a last resort.

The final opinion was to stay and fight the Mad Sand Gang to the death, but this was undoubtedly suicidal.

After much thought, Boss Fei decided to wait and see how things unfolded, and only retreat if absolutely necessary.
