107 The Path You’ve Chosen
If it was before the apocalypse and it was nine o’clock in the evening, everyone would have just gotten off work. It was common for them to watch TV after dinner, go out to watch a movie with their loved ones, or go to the streets and dance with friends. However, it was nine o’clock now, and most people had already fallen asleep. Some people had even fallen into a deep sleep.
Even so, He Xing and Du Yue were not sleepy at all. They were still waiting. Why spend such long hours sleeping when they were still alive? They could sleep for a long time after death. It was better for them to be more alert now. It was just past 9:20 when Du Yue heard some movement outside. It was the sound of heavy objects stepping on the snow. The sound was heavy and muffled. It was not loud, but it was more obvious in the quiet night.
Du Yue turned to look at He Xing, and their eyes met. He Xing’s eyes told her that he had heard the same sound. The two of them remained silent and nodded at each other. They picked up their weapons and stood up quietly, walking toward the window.
A window made of wood would always have a gap even if it was closed. Looking out from the crack, they could see that there were many more black shadows in the courtyard. Even though Du Yue had been mentally prepared for this, when she saw the sight with her own eyes, she still felt her heart palpitate.
After such a long time, these wild animals finally began to move. Did that not mean that they had been lurking in the surroundings all along, waiting for the night to be quiet and for everyone to fall asleep before they attacked?
Although they knew that hunting was an animal’s instinct and that it was an innate ability, it was still unbelievable. The natural disasters had been happening one after another, and the people were already having a hard time. Now that even animals were so smart and had started to eat human flesh, how were people going to survive in the coming days?
The animals in the courtyard did not move very fast, but the yard itself was not that big, so it did not take long for them to reach the lobby. At this moment, the windows of the lobby opened one after another, and black muzzles stuck out. Following the muffled sound of gunfire, the entire resort fell into a panic.

The animals in the yard were frightened by the gunshots and fled in all directions, but they did not escape the yard. In the hall, there were bursts of screams and wails. Even though Du Yue and He Xing were still some distance away from the hall, they could hear the voices clearly.
He Xing’s eyes darkened. If they were to shout at this time, it would only make the wild animals in the yard more excited and crazy. He saw that although the animals were avoiding the guns, they were also taking the opportunity to approach the lobby. Their speed was much faster than before. Some of them directly hit the door, while others hit the window. There were more animals in the yard than they had imagined. What was more terrifying was that there were still animals outside the yard that were coming over. The animals seemed to have reached a consensus as they ran. The animals in front were no longer afraid of the bullets. They used their bodies to block the muzzles while the animals behind them followed closely behind, running toward the lobby with all their strength.
Du Yue and He Xing did not hesitate any longer. He Xing had already brought the gun back from the car and loaded it with bullets. He Xing opened the window and started shooting at the animals. Du Yue was standing behind him. Although she was slower than He Xing, she was still able to make sure that every bullet hit its target.
With the two’s help, the pressure in the lobby was greatly relieved. But even so, there were still wild boars and wolves that rushed into the lobby. In the quiet night, the two of them could hear the tragic cries coming from the lobby.

The animals in the yard immediately pounced on the people who rushed out. Even so, Du Yue and He Xing did not panic. They continued to fire calmly.
Before the animals pounced on the people, they would kill them first. However, as more and more people rushed out, the number of people who could be saved in time decreased. Even so, Du Yue continued to fire at them calmly. Everyone was responsible for their own lives, and she could only save as many people as she could.
In their panic, those people did not consider the situation outside and rushed out. Most of them would die in the end, but this was the path they had chosen.
