Chapter 249 Temporary Return Trip

To Han Shuo's surprise, he only spent one day in this state of complacency before the clouds suddenly parted and the situation took a new turn.

Because the Zombie King knew that Wai Di was also in the city, he intentionally or unintentionally moved all the zombies he had gathered from the wild to the northeast of the city.

This means that the number of zombies is decreasing in the southwest direction where Han Shuo and his group are located...

This was absolutely fantastic news for the four of them.

They have regained hope for life!

The Zombie King did this for his own grand plan.

He couldn't let Wai Di be trapped in this city forever.

He had to release the team that Wai-di had infiltrated as soon as possible so that his subordinate could cooperate with him to continue the next phase of the plan!

For the zombie king, killing a few more or fewer people is completely irrelevant.

He had already killed countless humans, but at this moment, the only person he wanted to kill was Yue Zongyang!

Unbeknownst to them, Han Shuo and his companions had unexpectedly escaped with their lives.

However, the three of them still did not realize that Wai-di was the zombie king's subordinate and had been disguised as one of their own.

Is this considered bad luck or good luck?

Who can say for sure? Maybe it's fate.

If Han Shuo and his friends hadn't saved Wai Di back then, everything that followed might have been different.

When the three of them no longer needed to wait for Wai-di's fever to have its aftereffects.

They definitely wouldn't come out at this time, and they probably wouldn't enter this zombie city...

And what about Wai-di?

Even if they hadn't encountered Han Shuo, they probably would have infiltrated other teams and entered the underground research institute.

Since the two sides came together by chance, everything is now destined to be unchangeable.

As I said before:

Fortunately, Han Shuo and the other two are still alive.

...

That afternoon, the fat man's excited shouts came from inside the house.

"Come and see! Come and see! The zombies in the neighborhood are gone, and there are fewer and fewer zombies on the streets!"

As soon as the voice fell, Han Shuo and the other two hurriedly walked to the window.

Sure enough, on the third day of staying in this house, the number of zombies downstairs decreased at a visible rate.

Han Shuo couldn't contain his joy. Just two days ago, he thought the four of them had no way to survive this time.

In retrospect, the four were not destined to die!

He said excitedly.

"Excellent, excellent! At this rate, we can definitely leave tomorrow morning!"

"Hahaha! I can still live! I can still live!"

The fat man had tears in his eyes. Although he appeared to be doing nothing wrong these past few days, he actually went to the toilet several times a day.

He was absolutely terrified...

"Yay! Finally, I can escape this ghost town!"

In his excitement, Xiao Zhao took off his baseball cap and threw it into the air.

"well!"

Wai Di briefly enhanced the atmosphere of the scene.

He wasn't good at expressing himself, and at this moment he was just a little happier than usual.

The house is well soundproofed, so there's no need to worry about the noise attracting zombies outside.

Han Shuo pulled the three of them into his arms. Thanks to their companionship these past few days, he had been able to maintain a positive and optimistic attitude.

"Let's pack our things and leave tomorrow morning!"

...

The next morning, almost all the zombies downstairs had disappeared, leaving only a few scattered ones in sight.

Seeing this good opportunity, the four of them didn't waste any more time. They grabbed their weapons, slung their backpacks over their shoulders, and quickly went downstairs.

Soon, the four of them returned to the original location of the garage.

Han Shuo bent down and pulled up the roller shutter door, then spoke.

"Get in the car!"

As soon as the voice fell, the four men climbed onto the armored vehicle.

"Boom, boom, boom!"

The fat man started the armored vehicle, put it in gear, and drove it out of the garage with a burst of speed.

In less than an hour, the armored vehicles successfully broke out of the city.

There were no unexpected events along the way!

Those who survive a great calamity are sure to have good fortune in the future!

At this moment, this sentence unconsciously came to Han Shuo's mind.

"Awesome! Fatty, I'm still alive? I'm still alive?" Fatty's ego swelled to the extreme.

Indeed, given the current situation, this zombie city is a place where anyone who enters is guaranteed to die.

The fat man shouted again.

"See? I'm the chosen one! Follow me, and you'll never die!"

After saying this, Han Shuo completely ignored him, while Xiao Zhao in the back seat blindly admired the fat man and gave him a thumbs up.

While the three of them were unaware, Wai Di glanced sideways at the fat man and muttered something to himself.

"Hmph! Fatty, what does your escape have to do with you?"

...

And so, while the group chatted idly, the fat man drove the armored vehicle forward.

This time, the direction was no longer the previous chemistry laboratory, but rather a return journey to the underground research institute.

Two days prior, Han Shuo and his group had discussed the matter and decided to temporarily return to the underground research institute.

Because they stayed in the zombie city for too long, more than a week has passed since they set off.

If everything goes according to plan, they should have arrived at the chemistry lab by now.

Unfortunately, no one expected such a huge change to occur midway.

The four of them were essentially stuck in the same place; their plans had been completely disrupted.

...

On the way, the fat man suddenly remembered something and spoke up.

“I said, I’ve read this type of zombie novel before.”

"Could there be a zombie king in the center of that zombie city, the kind of zombie king that can control zombies?"

"It feels so terrifying. If I had such abilities, I could lead a bunch of zombie henchmen and roam freely anywhere. I wouldn't have to be so careful when I'm running for my life."

Han Shuo waved his hand and pointed forward.

"Don't overthink it, just focus on driving. If everything goes smoothly on the road, we should be able to reach the underground research institute this afternoon."

"Okay, I understand."

Actually, Han Shuo agreed with what the fat man had just said.

His decision to return to the underground research institute today was also for the sake of caution.

Han Shuo couldn't help but feel worried about this suddenly emerging and terrifying force.

Because in his view, this was an extremely abnormal phenomenon.

Not far from the underground research institute, a large number of zombies suddenly gathered in a city.

What does this mean?

Even if Han Shuo were stupid, he would guess that this force was very likely after the underground research institute.

Although he did not have clear evidence to confirm it, he still had to bring the news back to the underground research institute as soon as possible.

Although this was not their job, it concerned their safety.

Regardless of the final outcome, after Han Shuo learned about what happened in the zombie city...

He knew he needed to make some preparations in advance...
