Armored pickup trucks are like war gods on the highway, cutting down anything that gets in their way.
Xu Xing ignored the numerous people who tried to stop him along the way. Everyone had to accept their fate; he could save a few, but he couldn't handle more than that.
The headlights on the modified pickup truck are very bright, perhaps because the design did not take pedestrians in front into account at all. Like the high beams of a truck, they illuminate a large area of the road ahead.
Everything's in chaos!
The surrounding shopping malls and residential areas, shocked by the sound, turned on their lights and, upon witnessing the bloody scene, screams erupted one after another.
At this time, the zombie outbreak had just begun, and the power system was not yet completely paralyzed and could still operate on its own.
At this moment, everyone who remained on the street hurriedly searched for houses, but most of them had just opened the door when several zombies rushed out and infected them.
There were also some fearless individuals who blocked Xu Xing's path, and the only response they received was the steel bumper of the pickup truck.
They are not wrong; the world is wrong.
The situation escalated, and the commotion grew louder, but Xu Xing continued driving towards the villa area.
Sitting in the passenger seat, Ye Kai was still somewhat shaken, looking around at the streets with fear and confusion, his clasped hands trembling slightly.
Xu Xing pulled out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket and tossed it over, saying, "Ye Kai, you'll be working for me from now on. Some things can't be explained, but you'll understand later."
Xu Xing knew that Ye Kai grew up in an orphanage and joined the army as soon as he came of age. His phone was stolen shortly after he was discharged from the army, which is how they met.
Although Ye Kai had no worries, he didn't answer. The situation was complicated, and he was both confused and afraid.
Ye Kai took out a cigarette, lit it, took a deep drag, and looked through the thick bulletproof glass at the small group of people struggling.
He wanted to say something but didn't; he couldn't be generous with other people's money.
Xu Xing gripped the steering wheel tightly, dodging some still-running trucks, and floored the accelerator. Fortunately, it was midnight, and there weren't too many vehicles on the road, so there wasn't a large-scale traffic jam.
The period from midnight to 6 a.m. is the most difficult time. After 6 a.m., some people begin to awaken their supernatural abilities.
During this period, countless people were infected, the world was in a state of anarchy, no one cared and no one asked, it became a pure wilderness survival.
Only the strong survive; the weak were dismembered within those six hours.
The headlights of the slowly moving car were not far ahead when suddenly they spotted a huge ball of flesh.
Just like in the United States, the extremely obese people on TV shows are even more exaggerated.
Preliminary estimates suggest that the figure ahead weighs over 800 pounds, lying across the middle of the road like a ball of flesh, with a huge mouth stretching to the back of its head.
It stared at Xu Xing's vehicle with a grotesque grin, its thick limbs flailing wildly, seemingly trying to forcibly stop the armed pickup truck.
Xu Xing also saw that an ordinary zombie blocking the road ahead had its head ripped off by the large zombie and stuffed into its mouth.
Before long, his body seemed to have grown even bigger.
Zombies can also evolve, mainly by eating their own kind or the crystal cores of mutated beasts. Of course, the greatest temptation for them is to eat mutated beings.
Xu Xing couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, "How come there are already level two zombies so quickly? It's only been a dozen minutes since the zombie outbreak!"
Xu Xing immediately became extremely alert. He originally thought he could easily rush over, but he didn't expect to encounter a roadblock.
Xu Xing whispered a reminder to Ye Kai, "Sit still and hold on tight to the handrail."
With both hands on the steering wheel, shift into 5th gear, and press the accelerator, you can even hear the engine roaring as you drive slowly.
It's worth noting that this modified pickup truck itself weighs 5 tons, and apart from some large trucks, Xu Xing doesn't even consider anything else a threat.
It's just unknown whether they can fight off the zombies ahead.
Xu Xing's adrenaline surged rapidly, and then a loud "bang!" was heard.
The 5-ton pickup truck shuddered violently a few times, and the two people sitting in the seats could clearly feel the impact.
The immense inertia nearly threw the two of them off, but thankfully they were secured by seatbelts.
A grating creaking sound came from the steel bumper in front, probably from the way it was struggling against the zombie's bones.
These overloaded, alien-like two-level zombies cannot be viewed by normal standards, but they still succumbed to this torrent of steel.
When Xu Xing looked back through the rearview mirror, the enormous zombie had become a pile of mud.
It was chased by the pickup truck's four wheels, looking extremely miserable, its head shaped like a watermelon from Fruit Ninja.
Xu Xing sighed, regretting that he couldn't get off the vehicle, otherwise the two-level mutated crystal cores would still be very precious.
Looking at the car through the glass, it seemed to be undamaged. As expected, zombies still have a long way to go before they can evolve to the point where they can fight against modern technology.
If most of the military personnel hadn't also mutated, the zombies would have had a very difficult time gaining momentum.
Unfortunately, because it was nighttime and everyone was living together, most of the people had already turned into zombies before they even woke up.
This led to the situation spiraling out of control. The same thing happened in the United States. During the day, while everyone was training together, a teammate suddenly turned into a zombie, and they were doomed.
Xu Xing continued driving the pickup truck, the road was very bumpy, he didn't know if it was zombie corpses or something else.
He glanced at Ye Kai, who was still in shock, then pulled out a can of Coke from his pocket and tossed it to him, saying, "Have some soda to calm your nerves. It might get even bloodier later."
Ye Kai finally couldn't help but ask: "You can't be Doraemon, can you? How can you take out anything? And this pickup truck, which is even comparable to the land combat vehicles of the army to a certain extent."
How did you get your hands on it? And who is he? If it weren't for Xu Xing helping him all along, Ye Kai might have abandoned the car and run away long ago.
I told you, you'll understand in a while. Xu Xing knew that Ye Kai would awaken his power-type superpower after 6 a.m.
His talent was extremely powerful; when he first awakened, his strength was even comparable to that of a newly evolved level two zombie.
Their defensive capabilities are exceptionally outstanding, making them true battle tanks. It is also thanks to Ye Kai's cover that they have been able to escape safely after killing the enemy time and time again.
Every talent or ability has different levels. For the same superpower, some people can eventually move mountains, while others only gain a little more physical ability.
He had never heard of anyone else possessing a spatial talent like Xu Xing's; it was simply too rare.
All paths can only be explored through Xu Xing's own trial and error.
The biggest and most useful thing is that he has that mysterious space. The larger the space, the better his physical fitness will be. Although he can't compare to a tank like Ye Kai, Xu Xing knows that there are still many things he hasn't developed yet.
