Rebirth: I Am Super Rich in Apocalypse
Chapter 293: Kill

Chapter 293: Chapter 293: Kill

Her heart sank, hoping that Song Yi hadn’t been in any trouble.

The bear across, surprisingly, did not go mad.

It started to knock on the second door, please don’t open it.

Jhiang Yuan silently prayed in her mind, now to open the door would be the end.

But there were always those who were not careful.

"Who is it?"

The house’s soundproofing was poor, and this response clearly reached her ears.

Then came the sound of the door opening.

It was over.

She could not make a sound to warn them, for attracting that creature over would endanger everyone.

Besides her, there were others living next door.

She absolutely couldn’t do that, alas...

The bear, upon seeing someone open the door, actually emitted a bizarre screech similar to laughter...

The person also realized something was wrong and screamed, trying to close the door, but it was already too late.

The strength of a normal person was no match for a large bear.

It chased him into the house, followed by sporadic screams.

Jhiang Yuan, listening, felt panic, knowing being discovered by the bear would spell trouble.

She had heard stories about bears from the elderly back in her hometown when she was a child.

They said, the inside of their tongues was full of backward-facing spines.

Once they saw a person, they would lick them, and with a single bite, half of the face would be gone.

It seemed insignificant when she saw them in a zoo before.

Fortunately, it was only on the third floor, fortunately just across...

Wait a minute...

Suddenly, Jhiang Yuan became unsettled...

There was more than one bear coming, she could see across, but the area below their floor was a blind spot!

Could it have come up too?

A terrible atmosphere enveloped her, unknown dangers were even more perilous.

Who would explain to her why a bear would knock on doors like a person?

The scream from the opposite third floor gradually stopped. It hoped to serve as a warning for everyone.

"Thud thud thud..."

The ominous knocking sound echoed again, this time, it seemed to be from downstairs on this side.

Indeed, there wasn’t just one.

What could be done, Ye Mianmian was still next door.

If she had known earlier, she would have brought her along.

She listened quietly, it seemed like no one opened the door.

Time dragged on tensely, and the bear also came out of the room across.

It started knocking on the next household’s door, as if the previous event hadn’t happened.

Even more composed than her, truly fear-provoking upon reflection!

Luckily, it was only the third floor; it would take some time to come up.

She had to do something, but looking around the whole room,

it seemed there was nothing she could do; self-preservation was already at the limit of her capability.

"Hurry..."

Urgent footsteps sounded outside; Jhiang Yuan quickly went to the window to look.

As expected, a team of about ten people was coming.

Were they here to rescue?

A glimmer of hope suddenly rose in her heart...

"Thud thud thud..."

The knocking grew louder, oh no, could the bear be getting closer.

While conflicted, there suddenly was movement from the opposite staircase.

Someone was coming, hiding right there, with the bear yet to notice.

Its destructive power was truly immense, doors that couldn’t be knocked open were simply rammed.

In just a few tries, it broke through.

Fortunately, many apartments inside were unoccupied.

Growing impatient after several failed attempts, it was much less tender with the next "door."

The group of people moved closer prudently, with only three advancing, the rest staying behind.

Without missing a thing, Jhiang Yuan watched intently, afraid to overlook anything.

The bear was very sharp, though it made quite a noise itself, it still noticed the arriving humans.

Straightaway, it charged toward them.

The person at the front quickly picked up a thick wooden post.

Incredibly, the bear took it, hugging it in its paws and emitted a strange call similar to a "laugh," which made one’s scalp tingle.

A few people began to back away as the bear indulged in the joy of having the wooden post.

It nuzzled and gnawed the post, but soon realized something was off.

It dropped the wood and dashed toward the retreating group.

It was fast, but faster still were the gunshots.

The bear, hit by the bullets, did not retreat but grew even angrier instead.

It let out a series of enormous roars; though not deafening, they were loud enough to make Jhiang Yuan’s skin crawl, even inside the house.

Then, the grand human-bear battle ensued.

The bear advanced as people retreated, guns in hand, yet it wasn’t easily subdued.

The tension rose, and shockingly, gunshots echoed from downstairs as well.

In places she couldn’t see, people were definitely struggling valiantly.

At that moment, she felt not only fear but also a touch of emotion.

Jhiang Yuan remained alert, even holding a Tang Sword because the bear’s hide was thick.

A normal blade might not even harm it.

Now, she could only hope that the group could overpower it through sheer force!

She heard human screams too; someone must have been injured.

Oh dear, so tense.

Then, there was silence; she took the binoculars and looked across.

There was nothing, as by then they had already reached the bottom of her house.

It was a blind spot, out of sight.

"Thump, thump, thump..."

The knocking sound came again, causing her to break out in a cold sweat.

This time, they actually knocked on her door.

They still weren’t dead, truly persistent.

She must enter the space immediately; she was very cautious about her life.

"Jhiang Yuan, are you alright?"

Huh, someone spoke; bears can’t speak.

It was Song Yi; he had come back.

"I’m fine..."

With that, she began to clean up the clutter at the door.

"Don’t open the door, stay hidden well inside..."

"Okay..."

She didn’t have time to ask about his situation before he left.

What a trooper, he had to stay safe!

She heard the sound of the main door closing, adding another layer of security.

Hurrying to the window, sure enough, there were people running outside, and some were carrying a stretcher.

There were many people, and she recognized Song Yi immediately, even just from his silhouette.

The danger was temporarily averted, but the situation outside remained unclear.

Just to be safe, she entered the space!

Jhiang Xingzhi had been waiting for her; seeing her return, he eagerly inquired about the situation outside.

"It was a bear, it got into our yard too.

It should be dead now, it got shot."

"With the mountains so close, it’s normal to have bears around; those creatures are quite ferocious..." Jhiang Xingzhi said, somewhat worried.

"It’s alright, Dad, why aren’t you sleeping? Is it the sunlight here you’re not used to?"

There is no night in this space, sleeping during the daytime always felt a bit off.

"Just worried about you, go ahead and try to sleep a bit, who knows what tomorrow will bring? Don’t go outside again."

Jhiang Yuan quickly agreed, as this space could only be accessed by her bringing people in.

And leaving, also, could only happen with her.

If not for that, her father would have probably gone out to find her by now.

However, this was also a problem, since later on she thought about passing this to Xiao Nuan.

Then how should she use it, really a headache.
