It was past four in the afternoon when Zuo Feng and Da Mi Tao returned home.
No one was home, indicating that the girls were training on the balcony.
Indeed, when Zuo Feng and Da Mi Tao stepped onto the balcony, a group of Ying Ying Yan Yan were holding bows and shooting arrows at targets.
Even Da Bai Tu, with her injured right foot, was practicing archery while sitting on a stool.
Sunlight spilled onto their focused faces, sweat trickled down their foreheads, and the air was filled with tension and vitality.
Zuo Feng couldn't help but nod in praise; ignoring the abysmal scores on the targets, the girls' performance was still commendable, at least their attitude was good.
"girls, take a break.
The clothes are back, they're with Da Mi Tao.
Go change into them!
Da Mi Tao is waiting for you in room 1501."
Da Mi Tao didn't go up to the rooftop with Zuo Feng; instead, she chose an empty room on the 15th floor and waited for the group of Ying Ying Yan Yan there.
Zuo Feng was responsible for going up to inform them.
"Ha!
Thank you, Leader!"
"Thank you, Leader!"
"Leader, you've worked hard!"...
Upon hearing that the new clothes had arrived, the girls immediately became excited, stopped their training, hugged their weapons, and chattered as they rushed into the stairwell.
Watching Xiao Mi Tao help Da Bai Tu, their figures slowly disappearing down the corridor, Zuo Feng didn't follow—what was there to see a group of women changing clothes?
Zuo Feng expressed disdain for this, but his heart was already restless—he really wanted to join their clothes-changing activity!
How could such an important activity not include him, their Leader?
Couldn't they invite him?
So thoughtless!
And where was their team spirit?
Unfortunately, the Ying Ying Yan Yan, lured by the new clothes, ultimately overlooked team spirit and didn't invite him, their Leader, to join them.
Zuo Feng, standing in place, regretfully walked to the edge of the rooftop, propped his arms on the railing, and looked down at the dilapidated city.
The city no longer had its former bustling traffic, only broken walls and desolate streets remained.
Sparse loss crystals wandered aimlessly on the roads.
A gentle breeze swept up broken paper scraps, slowly carrying them away, as if taking the past prosperity with them, fading further and further.
Before the apocalypse, Zuo Feng also liked to stand here and overlook the city, feeling the hustle and bustle and vitality.
Scenes from the past flashed like slides in his mind, but then slowly blurred.
He could never go back.
Zuo Feng took a deep breath, trying to calm the disappointment in his heart.
He was no longer the little homebody who only worried about himself; he was now a Leader with heavy responsibilities, and this group of girls needed his protection.
His scattered thoughts were pulled back by the chattering of a group of Ying Ying Yan Yan.
Looking back, it was the girls who had changed their clothes and were entering in single file.
With just one glance, Zuo Feng's eyes almost popped out!
All were long, fair legs.
Goodness!
Were they going to participate in a girl group audition?
With these looks, these figures, and these legs, if they were to participate in a girl group audition, they would completely dominate any other contestant!
This group of Ying Ying Yan Yan had actually unified their attire!
Tight and form-fitting gray sports vests perfectly showcased the exquisite figures of these Ying Ying Yan Yan.
Light blue ultra-short, tight denim shorts just barely enveloped the full and rounded curves of the Ying Ying Yan Yan, outlining their perfect figures.
Further down were a series of long legs that made Zuo Feng dizzy.
On their feet were white short socks paired with white sneakers with blue stripes.
At this moment, all that remained in Zuo Feng's mind were legs.
"Please inspect, Leader!"
The girls stood in a neat line in front of Zuo Feng, their clear and uniform voices making it seem quite authentic.
"Haha, I told you, the Leader's eyes would pop out!
How about it, was I right or not!"
Xiao She Jing's boisterous laughter made Zuo Feng so ashamed he wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl into; it was too embarrassing.
He'd fallen for it; these women were definitely teasing him on purpose!
Zuo Feng awkwardly cleared his throat, feigning composure, his gaze reluctantly yet unwillingly tearing away.
Out of the corner of his eye, he saw the women pursing their lips, trying to suppress their laughter.
Zuo Feng regretted it greatly.
He should have called out "At ease!" He wanted to carefully check if the Ying Ying Yan Yan's movements were neat and standard enough!
Especially that extended leg!
However, to be fair, the women now looked quite heroic.
Holding composite bows in their left hands and carrying quivers full of arrows on their backs, they exuded a heroic aura.
Especially Da Bai Tu, Xiao Ke Lian, Xiao Shao Fu, Wu Yanyan, and Li Jiajia—these five women had holsters strapped to their right thighs, with a Type 92 pistol inserted into each holster.
Tactical sheaths were tied to their right thighs, with multi-functional tactical knives inserted into the sheaths, the blades pressed against their skin.
Just one glance made people feel that these five women were not to be trifled with!
In reality, they were all Zhan Wu Zha!
This show of force was certainly effective at intimidating people!
His gaze couldn't help but sweep around again.
Oh, wow!
How did it seem like there were two extra legs?
Shouldn't seven girls have 14 legs?
Why were there 16 legs here?
The two extra legs looked so familiar.
He seemed to know them.
His gaze moved up, and it was actually Kong Ling!
These women had actually given Kong Ling a uniform outfit too, and even taught her how to queue!
Goodness, these women were too terrifying!
It was already nearing five in the afternoon.
After some thought, Zuo Feng announced the end of training.
Everyone returned indoors.
Zuo Feng's eyes, with nowhere to rest, darted left and right, seeing legs everywhere!
Ultimately, he lowered his head, content to be Da Bai Tu's masseur.
Li Jiajia got up to prepare dinner in the kitchen.
Wu Yanyan silently followed in to help.
Xiao She Jing whispered with Xiao Shao Fu, arm in arm.
Da Mi Tao's gaze was fixed on Kong Ling's brow, who sat quietly on the sofa.
Xiao Mi Tao was even directly lying on Kong Ling, observing her closely.
As soon as Zuo Feng returned, he felt Kong Ling's instinctive craving.
Zuo Feng knew that Kong Ling craved the two-pattern half loss crystal.
After the girls finished changing and training, Zuo Feng handed all the loss crystals harvested today to Xiao Mi Tao.
Xiao Mi Tao was quite bold, directly stuffing the two-pattern half loss crystal into Kong Ling's mouth.
Now, she was observing Kong Ling's changes, but Kong Ling, after eating the two-pattern half loss crystal, showed no changes.
Xiao Mi Tao speculated that Kong Ling needed to slowly digest the energy of the two-pattern half loss crystal.
Dinner was originally supposed to be noodles, but the noodles ultimately didn't make it to the table.
Instead, the dining table had a small pile of snacks like pickled chili chicken feet, duck necks, and drunken peanuts, and several cans were opened—it turned out Xiao She Jing had suggested they all have some drinks first.
In this apocalypse, drinking was theoretically not encouraged for a team.
Alcohol would slow down a person's brain reaction speed and lower their vigilance.
But tonight was different.
After tonight, tomorrow they would face unknown life and death.
Zuo Feng's gaze swept over the women.
From their eyes, Zuo Feng read a longing.
They were not heavy drinkers; perhaps tonight they just wanted to indulge once, and this indulgence might be the last in their lives.
Then came the current scene: a table full of small snacks for drinks, with red wine, beer, and baijiu also placed on the table!
These were all supplies moved from the Tiger King Alliance.
Everyone gathered around the dining table.
Only the poor Xiao Tong Tong (Xiao Shao Fu's daughter) was alone, lie on the edge of the coffee table, her small hands unable to even hold chopsticks steadily, yet she still diligently tried to scoop the noodles from her bowl.
