"Ah!"


    Natalie was startled and didn''t bother with Patrick anymore, subconsciously hiding behind Oliver.


    "How... how could you? Who gave you the right toy hands on him?"


    Oliver was both shocked and angry! .


    Elijah ignored him and looked at Lily. At this moment, Daisy suddenly appeared by Lily''s side, holding her hand.


    "Lily, don''t be afraid. We''ll protect you from now on. No one will hurt you again!"


    She said, pulling Lily towards Elijah.


    Lily kept staring at Elijah''s hand, watching as blood dripped from the nail one drop at a time onto the ground.


    "Your hand..."


    "Oh!"


    Elijah realized, lifting his hand to pull out the nail and throw it away.


    "It''s nothing, just a minor wound. I was careless!"


    Elijah and Daisy rushed over upon hearing Patrick''s scream.


    However, they were a bit further away, so by the time they arrived, Oliver and Natalie had already gotten there.


    Since they didn''t understand the situation, they didn''t reveal themselves but relied on Daisy''s ability to blend into the shadows and watched from the sidelines.


    They quickly understood what was happening.


    Patrick''s actions just now were too sudden. Who could have expected him to get injured like this and still react so quickly?


    Elijah was stunned for a moment. Fortunately, he was rtively close and managed to block it with his hand!


    The only regret was that he didn''t have time to switch to Abigail''s ability. Otherwise, he wouldn''t have suffered even this minor injury!


    "Are you... are you not listening to me? I am the leader here! Do you still not respect me?"


    Seeing that no one paid attention to him, Oliver became furious! He pulled out an electric nail gun and pointed it at Elijah and the others.


    "You''re out of your minds!"


    This was Oliver following Patrick''s advice and had just retrieved it from the hardware section of the warehouse.


    Since Elijah and the others had cold weapons, the best way to deal with them was undoubtedly with long-range lethal weapons.


    Patrick immediately thought of the nail gun.


    Although it wasn''t useful against zombies, it posed a significant threat to humans!


    So, he rummaged through the maintenance department and found the pneumatic nail gun.


    This thing had great power but was not very flexible, limited by the distance of the air pump.


    So, he had Oliver search the hardware section for an electric nail gun.


    And indeed, he found one!


    Seeing the nail gun piercing Elijah''s hand instantly, Oliver was filled with confidence and had no fear!


    "I also seem to have a gun!"


    Elijah grinned and pulled out a revolver. He had already given his Glock to Charlotte.


    "Who knows if that''s real or not!"


    Oliver''s face changed slightly. Now that the situation had escted, he could only pretend to remain calm.


    "You''ll find out if you try!"


    Elijah aimed at him without hesitation and pulled the trigger.


    Bang!


    The gunshot startled everyone.


    It waspletely different from the noise of the nail gun.


    Everyone could tell it was the real deal!


    Unfortunately, it missed, the bullet grazing past Oliver.


    But it was enough to scare Oliver badly, making his hand holding the electric nail gun tremble uncontrobly.


    "Sorry, I just switched to a new pistol and I''m not very proficient with it yet. I guarantee the next shot will hit!"


    Elijah aimed again without hesitation.


    "None of you... move!"


    However, at this moment, a hoarse voice suddenly sounded.


    Everyone turned around to find Patrick, who had copsed, waking up at some point.


    He was sitting on the ground with his back against the wall, tremblingly pointing the nail gun at Daisy!


    "If any of you move, I''ll kill her!"


    Across from them, Oliver''s face immediately lit up with delight, arrogantly saying, "So what if you have guns? We have more! Natalie, where''s yours?"


    "Oh! Oh!"


    Natalie anxiously pulled an electric nail gun out of her bag. Three nail guns were now aimed at Elijah and the others.


    "If you don''t want yourpanion to die, put down all your weapons."


    Oliver''s hand stopped trembling, and he straightened up.


    "Especially you two women, take off all your clothes. I want to check if you''re hiding any weapons!"


    Elijahpletely ignored his nonsense, moving two steps to shield Lily behind him and fired again.


    "Bang!"


    "Ah!"


    Oliver screamed miserably. This time Elijah''s marksmanship was not bad, hitting his arm directly, causing the electric nail gun to fall to the ground.


    "Shoot, shoot, kill them!"


    Oliver was in pain and anger, dodging while shouting. Meanwhile, Natalie, upon hearing this, pressed the nail gun repeatedly.


    "Splurt! Splurt! Splurt!"


    Several steel nails flew out, hitting Elijah in the chest, shoulder, and even one directly on his face.


    Natalie could see clearly; the steel nail made Elijah''s cheek sink in, but soon bounced back and fell to the ground.


    Not only did it not prate, it didn''t even leave a scratch.


    "Your... your skin, why is it so thick? You''re not human! You''re a monster!"


    Natalie was terrified, dropping the electric nail gun and following Oliver to run away!


    Elijah nced at his pistol, thinking better of it. It was better to save ammunition. After all, they were now unarmed and could be easily taken care of.


    "Ah!"


    At this moment, another sharp scream rang out. It was Daisy stepping on Patrick''s leg, directly breaking it, with bone fragments exposed.


    It turned out that when Oliver shouted just now, Patrick sitting on the ground had also hysterically pulled the trigger of the nail gun in his hand.


    "Click, click!"


    The nail gun made a few noises, but no nails shot out.


    Patrick''s expression froze.


    "What''s going on?"


    "Have you seen the power of the nail gun? Do you think we wouldn''t be prepared for this?"


    Upon hearing Daisy''s words, Patrick turned to look at the air pump and found that the pipe had been cut off long ago!


    After Daisy finished speaking, she angrily stepped forward and kicked his leg.


    "For bullying Lily!"


    Daisy''s strength was iparable. With one kick, she directly broke his leg!


    Patrick screamed in agony!


    "Enough ying around, let''s deal with them quickly!"


    Elijah stepped forward, grabbed Patrick''s neck, and twisted it forcefully.


    "Crack!"


    The world fell silent.


    Lily on the side was already stunned!


    Just moments ago, she was worried that Elijah would be hit by the nail gun, but now she saw him casually breaking Patrick''s neck as if nothing had happened.


    But there were clearly wounds from the nail gun on his hand...


    "Lily, are you okay? Did you get scared?"


    "N-no..."


    She replied subconsciously.


    "And the other two, they should have run to the warehouse door. There''s nowhere else for them to go here! Let''s go over!"


    Elijah finished speaking and followed the blood trail forward.


    Sure enough, at the entrance of the warehouse, he saw two figures trembling, cowering there.


    Oliver and Natalie had nowhere to escape.


    Seeing Elijah approaching, they immediately begged for mercy.


    "Elijah, I was wrong just now! I was blind! You''re a big shot! Just ignore me and let me go?"


    "Fine! If you leave now, I''ll pretend nothing happened!"


    Elijah said indifferently.


    "Uh~ But there are zombies outside. Can we wait until there are fewer zombies outside?"


    "Do you think that''s possible?"


    Seeing that begging Elijah didn''t work, Oliver immediately looked at Lily beside him.
