As Huang Simiao listened to Li Chu's words, he felt that something was not right.

However, she had no choice but to refute it.

Someone in the crowd exclaimed in surprise, "Hey! Look over there!"

Following his direction, everyone looked and, upon seeing the densely packed head of people, gaped and forgot to breathe.

Actually, I was also afraid that if I breathed too loudly, I would attract the zombies that appeared in the early morning!

Zhang Run looked at He Qing, whose expression was solemn, and leaned closer to whisper, "That shouldn't be a zombie horde, right?"

The mere mention of a zombie horde sends chills down the spines of everyone around!

If humans were to encounter them head-on, they would surely be devoured, leaving not even bones behind...

Li Chu took out her binoculars, through which she could see more clearly. Those densely packed, moving zombies were probably really heading straight for them.

Although they moved very slowly, some even dragging their severed limbs, if they followed a straight line, their destination would undoubtedly be the location of the convoy.

What's even more shocking is that not a single zombie strayed from the main force; they were like rows of soldiers marching into battle!

Some of the zombies were even holding corpses in their hands and gnawing on them.

He Qing and Huang Simiao both thought of the controlled mutated vines on the mountain.

Although Shen Jing ultimately failed to find the energy controlling the mutated vine.

But now that a similar situation has occurred, they suspect it may be the same energy source!

The horde of zombies wasn't moving fast, and the convoy didn't want to alert them!

He Qing gestured for the team to retreat.

It's best to avoid them for now, since their goal this time isn't to clear out the zombies, but to find useful supplies.

But of all times, someone has to cause trouble at this time!

"Aaaaaah! There are zombies here too!"

A loud shout suddenly rang out from the crowd!

It turned out that a group of zombies was also closing in from the direction they were retreating.

This is a pincer attack from both sides!

But what's even more terrifying now is that piercing sound.

Zombies have virtually no vision, but their hearing is highly developed.

Upon hearing that voice, the already slow-moving horde of corpses went completely berserk!

"Hehe"

"Damn, they've gotten faster!"

"Let's get out of here! Let's go!"

"Go get the car! Do you want your throat bitten open and you become breakfast for those zombies?!"

The already small team completely collapsed!

They hurriedly found their car, ignoring He Qing's orders, and focused on escaping in the opposite direction of the horde of corpses!

He Qing and the others then returned to their military vehicle, which was hot and smelly enough to make them want to vomit.

Zhang Run was in charge of driving. "Hold on tight! We're heading straight into the city!"

There's no turning back now. Even if we manage to escape from the outskirts of the city to the mountains, there are mutated beasts up there too!

Moreover, they have a mission to complete, and they cannot afford to back down!

The convoy scattered, and the zombies, hearing the roar of the engines, bared their teeth and claws, trying to give chase.

The number of zombies was so large that some vehicles were unable to evacuate in time and were surrounded by them.

The people in the car looked miserable; none of them wanted to die!

But no matter how much they kept pressing the accelerator, a constant stream of zombies blocked the front of the car, making it impossible for them to get away!

"What...what should I do...I don't want to die, sob sob..."

"Shut up, aren't there enough zombies already?" someone whispered, scolding the bespectacled man who had broken down first.

The bespectacled man glared at him resentfully: "You're the one who called me out! I'm still doing just fine without any points!"

The man retorted, not to be outdone, "Living well? You live off your mother and sister selling their bodies, what's the difference between you and those walking corpses outside?"

"Is it any of your business?"

"Stop arguing! Think of something quick, they'll flip this car over sooner or later!"

"What can we do? The base commander has already escaped..." The driver glared venomously at the convoy that had fled earlier.

But now that we're trapped in the horde of zombies, there really isn't any other way.

They had already smelled the humans and heard the noise from the people inside the car!

"Ahhh!"

A scream came from behind, and Li Chu glanced back.

At this moment, the system's voice sounded in her mind: [Those who spoke ill of the female supporting character are all dead. Her luck value is very low, but she still has some luck on her side.]

Li Chu couldn't bear to watch any longer and said to the system in her mind, "They were killed by zombies, and it has nothing to do with Shen Jing."

[Host, if the female supporting character is allowed to continue developing, the small world will revolve around her.]

When she cooperates with the main villain to destroy the world, you will all die.

"Isn't this your game rule? Whether we live or die is none of your business," a mocking glint flashed in Li Chu's eyes.

[Host, killing the main villain will end the apocalypse. Do you really want to see tragedy unfold?]

Last time, Li Chu was still resentful that she had almost killed Shen Jing.

Now that the system is urging her to kill Gu Yan, she hasn't acted as impulsively as she did last time.

Not to mention that Gu Yan solved the base's water problem.

His research also yielded remarkable results with stimulants and nutrient solutions.

Li Chu didn't think he was the main villain. Besides, the system was omnipotent, so why didn't it just kill Gu Yan and end the apocalypse?

According to the system, there will also be a male protagonist whose primary goal is to kill the villain.

Are they all just fit to be their puppets?

Faced with a disobedient host, the system had no choice but to unleash its trump card: [The female supporting character and the villain will cause the convoy's survivors to be wiped out.]

Upon hearing the system's words, Li Chu looked up in astonishment.

The system mentioned last time that Shen Jing went on a killing spree at the research institute, and that actually happened...

What about this time?

Many of Shen Lichu's comrades-in-arms were in the convoy!

There were also those she only knew by nodding acquaintance, but because of her work, Li Chu knew that each of them had relatives at home waiting for their return.

A total wipeout... if the entire team is really wiped out...

What about their loved ones waiting at the base?

Li Chu touched the liquid on her face, unsure whether it was tears or sweat.

Because she's feeling cold all over!

"Li Chu? Why are your hands so cold? Were you scared?" Huang Simiao gripped Li Chu's hand tightly and quickly comforted her, "The zombies following us have all been shaken off. It's okay, we'll all be fine, don't worry."

Li Chu looked at Huang Simiao, but didn't know how to explain.

Especially when Huang Simiao said they could all return to the base...

Is it really possible to go back?

But the predictions made by the system have never failed!

Could it be that she really has to find that male protagonist named Liang Jingyan and kill both Shen Jing and Gu Yan in order to bring an end to the apocalypse?

Just thinking about this made Li Chu feel heavy-hearted.

She can kill zombies without hesitation.

Now they're making her kill her own kind!
