Chapter 342 News

Lin, a local resident living in a resort hotel, joins Sang Zhengyi's team.

The news quickly spread throughout the base and shocked all the teams.

It turns out they were able to leave the hotel, but the compensation they were offered was not enough!

The team that first learned the news drove behind Team Sang that day.

Follow me from a distance, if you stop, I stop, if you walk, I walk.

What can you do to me?

Qi Hua told this to Sang Zhengyi, who looked in the rearview mirror and said after a long silence:

"Let them."

It can't be stopped.

He looked towards the truck bed. Lin raised her head and looked at the small spire in the distance. The white clouds rolled in and out, swallowing it up and spitting it out.

She didn't care at all whether someone else would take advantage of the opportunity.

Perhaps she didn't have the extra energy to distract herself.

Walking along the path covered with weeds and colorful wildflowers, at the end, a deserted square appears before your eyes.

In the center of the square stands a marble statue of a flying bird, with a few rusty words held in its beak, eroded by feces and rainwater beyond recognition.

The blue bricks below were pushed up from below by the vigorous wild grass, as if a corpse buried there had come back to life and was stretching out its arms to get out.

The bluish-white steps were piled with human garbage blown by the wind.

The handsome spokesperson on the packaging bag still smiled, but because he had lost his color, he looked like a black and white photo in a funeral hall, with a terrifyingly empty look in his eyes.

Snap——

A rotten foot stepped on it.

The zombie in overalls stopped, its face, torn beyond recognition, swayed from side to side, and its neck made a creepy cracking sound.

There was a dog leash tied around its wrist. Looking at the end, there was only a small skeleton left in the collar that originally tied the dog. The whole body was so smooth that there was not even a hair left.

Team Sang drove slowly into the square. Everyone in the truck leaned over and stared through the gaps at the zombies that appeared on the steps and in the bushes, their breathing quickening.

The trees near the square are tall and lush, with branches intertwined, covering the upper space extending into the square.

It formed an overwhelming darkness, and the branches and leaves were dimly visible, as if many terrible monsters were hiding.

The wheels of the car rolled over the rotten leaves and gradually stopped. The sound waves of the engine's humming kept bouncing off the tree trunks, as if a tornado was forming above the square.

Don't let the zombies hear you——

Everyone kept praying in their hearts.

At least wait until the car comes to a complete stop before...

"roar--!"

The zombie suddenly turned around, stretched its cracked mouth to the limit, and mucus spurted out with the movement, running towards them at high speed!

The car brakes to a stop.

"Get out of the car and defend!"

Sang Zhengyi pushed the door open and jumped down, pulling out a sharp-bladed shovel from the truck bed.

Seeing this, the teammates hiding in the truck bed stood up, picked up their shovels, jumped down, surrounded the truck, and pointed their blades at the zombies running out from all directions after hearing the sound.

One, two, three... twelve!

I can definitely beat him!

Sang Zhengyi took the time to point at two people and said, "Hide the car quickly, and the rest of you move forward in unison to kill the zombies!"

"receive!"

Everyone leaned against the car, raised their shovels high, and thrust them hard into the neck of the running zombie. The blade cut through the rotten flesh and penetrated deep into the neck, getting stuck between the two cervical vertebrae.

The zombie, which was not yet completely dead, stretched out its hands with its claws and fangs bared, scratching the air aimlessly with its purple nails. Its gray-white eyeballs, which were close at hand, bulged high, almost bursting through its sockets and falling out.

The puppy's skeleton was dragged across the ground, jolting and rubbing, its chest filled with rotten leaves and dirt.

Wherever the owner goes, it follows.

"You die!"

The teammate held the shovel handle tightly with both hands and pressed it against his abdomen. He used his right foot, the only foot he could use to push against the ground, and used all his strength to fight the zombie, forcing the blade to penetrate deeper into the bones, trying to separate its body.

At this time, his complementary teammate beside him took out a hammer from his pocket, aimed at the zombie's head and hammered it down hard.

It's like knocking on a watermelon, and it cracks open, but what's revealed is not the pink, sweet flesh, but black, rotten stuff.

Black sewage flowed down the cracks, and the zombies soon dropped their hands, completely dead and lifeless.

"It's done!"

The two cheered, picked out the pink crystal core from the black residue, wiped it carefully, and put it into a zippered pocket.

Income +1.

The other teammates also killed zombies one after another. Regardless of the level of the crystal cores, they knocked them out and put them in their pockets, and then distributed them evenly after returning.

A small battle was resolved in this way.

Lin stood in the crowd, looking at the smiles on people's faces, touching the small crystal core in her pocket, and suddenly felt it was heavy and hot.

Snap, snap!

Suddenly, there was a sound of leaves swaying violently behind the bushes, as if something was rushing around inside, looking for the source of the sound.

Everyone tensed up again and held the shovels across their bodies.

Qi Hua and the others straightened up and looked at them solemnly.

Snap!

The bushes suddenly split apart, and dozens of zombies with ferocious faces like the living dead rushed out.

Sang Zhengyi: "Prepare to attack!"

This time, all those with superpowers used their powers.

Qi Hua and his companions took the lead and rushed forward. Wherever they went, zombies fell to the ground one after another.

For a moment, various supernatural powers illuminated the twisted shade of the trees and passed through the vines that climbed up each other.

There was no crying or desperate prayers. Everyone had a determined look in their eyes, without a trace of cowardice, and bravely confronted the zombies head-on!

The new teammates once again refreshed their understanding of this weak team.

They look disabled, but their hearts are complete and strong!

There is no cold-eyed attitude in this team, nor is there any indifference. Some people even trust their vulnerable backs to their teammates.

When everyone works together, the casualty rate can be minimized.

...

Another team following behind them arrived late.

Looking at the ruins all over the ground, someone picked up a branch and searched inside the zombie's head to see if there was any missing crystal core.

The ending disappointed them because it was full of black scum.

Looking around the lush bushes surrounding the square, one area had been cleared by humans, creating a small path that was only wide enough for one person to pass through.

It seems they should go that way.

"Captain, are we still following?"

"No, go the other way."

...

"Captain Sang, they went in another direction."

Qi Hua hurriedly caught up with the team, walked up to Sang Zhengyi and whispered.

A few minutes ago, Lin determined the location of the fruit tree closest to the square. When the whole team was ready to set off by cutting through the thorns and making a small path, Sang Zhengyi quietly asked him to stay and see which group of people were following behind, to see which team they were and whether they would catch up.

Fortunately, the other party still had some manners and went to the other side.

What you did wasn't excessive.

If he really wanted to shamelessly follow them and pick up some leftovers, he wouldn't mind digging a trap and setting a trap.
