Seeing the mutated monsters chasing them more and more fiercely, while the monsters in front had already moved aside due to Sun Muchen's shooting, Wang Lan turned to Lao Zhang and shouted, "Full speed ahead, watch out for monsters!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he was about to say something more to Sun Muchen when he suddenly heard a strange "howling" sound from behind. Wang Lan quickly turned around and saw that the hyena was already very close to the jeep. With a sudden push of its four legs, the hyena pounced on him.
Wang Lan immediately gripped the Vajra Umbrella and swung it out, striking the hyena heavily and sending it flying. However, the toughness of the hyena's skin caused Wang Lan to feel a sharp pain coming from between his tiger's mouth.
He almost lost his grip on the umbrella!
But when they looked up, they saw that the hyena that had been knocked away was being bitten in the mouth of a male lion. The lion closed its jaws and instantly bit the hyena in two. Then it let out a loud roar, which frightened the other monsters on both sides into hiding.
Wang Lan looked surprised.
Wang Lan knew the hyena's skin strength well, but he didn't expect that the lion could break through its defenses so easily. The monsters outside the wall were truly terrifying!
Wang Lan said to Sun Muchen, "Save your bullets! We'll run out of ammo if we keep shooting like this!"
Seeing that Sun Muchen immediately stopped firing and switched from sweeping to bursts of fire, Wang Lan took out a Molotov cocktail from his backpack, lit it, and threw it at the monsters behind him.
The Molotov cocktail crashed to the ground, bursting into flames. However, under the onslaught of the mutated monster army, the seemingly raging fire was extinguished in an instant and disappeared into the thick smoke.
Seeing that the Molotov cocktails had no effect on their charge and had only fueled the monsters' fighting spirit, Wang Lan panicked. He took out a rope from the vehicle, tied one end to the machine gun mount, and the other end to his waist. Then he said to Sun Muchen, "Cover me!"
These words were spoken so quickly that before Sun Muchen could react, she saw Wang Lan leap off the vehicle and head straight for the herd of beasts behind them.
Sun Muchen was immediately shocked and her face turned pale.
"violent!"

[Countdown begins]
As the system's voice appeared in his mind, Wang Lan felt his whole body immediately lighten, but it was as if an endless stream of power was surging out of his brain and then flowing into his body and limbs, making his jumping movements in mid-air much faster.
Seeing the live prey leaping towards them, the monsters ran even faster and charged even more fiercely.
Wang Lan had already jumped onto their heads. Holding the Vajra Umbrella, he thrust it downwards. The tip of the Vajra Umbrella pierced through the abdomen of the animal below, and the surrounding animals gathered around, opening their mouths to bite at Wang Lan, about to devour him in an instant.
At this moment, Wang Lan suddenly lifted the animal under the Vajra Umbrella. Under the influence of the Impulsive effect of the Berserk skill, although this action was also very difficult for Wang Lan, he still managed to lift the animal up. Then, using himself as the center, he swung it around violently, smashing it hard into other animals.
Then, relying on the enormous inertia, he swung faster and faster. Although the surrounding animals rushed forward one after another, none of them could resist being knocked away. These knocked-away animals rolled backward and were hit by other animals, causing chaos in the scene.
Their speed was slowed down.
At this moment, a lion roared and broke through the chaos, rushing towards Wang Lan.
The enormous figure formed a stark and striking contrast with Wang Lan's frail body; its gaping mouth seemed even larger than Wang Lan's body.
Wang Lan could no longer see anything else but that lion, and all that remained was despair.
However, at this moment, the rope connecting him to the jeep suddenly taut, reaching the limit of its length. Wang Lan's body trembled, and he was pulled over by the jeep.
The lion landed, only to miss its target.
With Wang Lan suspended in mid-air, the jeep's rapid speed increased the force on the rope, making it difficult for him to maintain his balance. Fortunately, the Berserk skill significantly enhanced his physical abilities, allowing him to regain his footing. He then pulled on the rope and jumped back and forth several times before returning to the jeep.
"You're crazy, bro!"
When Sun Muchen saw Wang Lan finally return, although it was only a short while, it felt like a long time had passed. Wang Lan's clothes were torn, but fortunately, the skin underneath was not injured.
"He was crazy, but thankfully I came to my senses in time..."
Wang Lan replied to Sun Muchen, then rubbed his face and plopped down in his seat. The berserk skill's duration was over, and that light feeling disappeared.
"These monsters are too strong!" Wang Lan exclaimed. "In every aspect, they are far stronger than the animals in the safe zone. Damn it, aren't they all the same type of mutation? How can there be such a huge difference?"
Sun Muchen glared at him fiercely and cursed, "Are you trying to die?!"
"You two should stop talking!"
Old Zhang, who was driving, spoke up, "What time is it? Stop arguing! If this keeps going, we'll all die here. Can't you see the monsters are swarming around us again?"
Upon hearing this, the brother and sister immediately shut their mouths.
As they approached, the number of monsters gradually increased, while those behind them caught up, leaving Wang Lan and his companions trapped in the middle.
Give me the pistol.
Without saying a word, Sun Muchen handed the pistol to Wang Lan.
Wang Lan took out the last Molotov cocktail from his bag, lit it, and threw it behind him. As the Molotov cocktail flew through the air, Wang Lan pulled the trigger and aimed. With a "bang," the bullet hit the Molotov cocktail accurately.
The Molotov cocktail shattered with a roar, and the fire spread instantly, raining down fire upon the animals, igniting their fur, and then burning ever brighter within their group.
"This method works!"
The two were overjoyed to see this.
"But we've run out of Molotov cocktails..."
After the initial joy subsided, Wang Lan revealed the truth.
With their machine gun ammunition running low and no other ranged weapons available, their defeat seemed inevitable.
"Hold on tight!"
Old Zhang called out.
He had already seen the black outer wall of the final fortress. Although it looked like just a faint black line, it at least represented a target and meant that they had seen hope.
Old Zhang had actually read a lot of books in the past, but these books were different from the textbook knowledge that Sun Muchen had learned. Most of them were survival skills, encyclopedias and the like.
For example... he learned his driving skills from books.
and…
He also learned a lot of racing skills.
