Chapter 61 A Difficult Decision
The people from Team 4 just said that the conditions are not good today, so their car will not leave.
Although the train's defenses couldn't be easily breached by zombies, he didn't want to test the train's limits. There were still two hours until 1 p.m., and with such a long time to go, what if there were too many zombies and they really broke through?
Ren Ru hugged her son tightly. Huang Liping and Jiang Weimin looked at each other. Although they wanted to leave, they hesitated when they remembered what the people in the passenger car had just said.
Although they did not announce the departure time of the train in advance this time, passengers inferred that the departure time was around 1:00 p.m. based on the time they had seen before.
It wasn't even the departure time they thought it would be yet, and there might be many people on their way. If they just left like this...
The Jiang family are all ordinary people at the bottom of society. If they hadn't had this strange encounter with the train, they might have been the same as the people in the carriage behind them. No, maybe their situation would have been even worse.
Therefore, they can personally experience the difficulties faced by ordinary people after the end of the world, and they also understand their feelings of seeing a train as if it were a life-saving straw.
Now, they finally mustered up the courage to leave their homes and wanted the train to take them away from this place. Jiang Qian and her family did not want to deprive these people of hope.
Jiang Weimin sighed and discussed with his family, "How about we just wait a little longer? When it's really... then we can leave."
"OK!"
Everyone nodded silently and looked out the window again.
The people who had come out of the carriage had already entered the waiting room, but the faint roars and screams coming from outside continued to be heard.
The newcomers gradually gained experience in fighting the zombies, but those who had fallen could never regain their sanity.
They could only watch their neighbors and relatives struggle under the bites of zombies, and then turn into monsters that attacked them without reason.
There was blood all over the road in front of the waiting hall, and the strong smell of blood attracted more zombies.
The zombies that surrounded them earlier had not all fallen down yet, but new zombies were already surrounding them.
Seeing that the situation was about to get out of control, Zheng Cheng knocked down a zombie that was surrounding him through the cabinet at the door, and then moved a hole in the barrier in front of him.
"Stop fighting and come in!"
The people around him who were fighting the zombies with him saw this and, out of trust in him, began to follow his example. Countless passages suddenly appeared in the tightly blocked door.
The people at the door who were reminded saw the group of zombies pouring in from the intersection and realized the seriousness of the situation. While they were dealing with the zombies approaching nearby, they were also reminding their families who were still in the car.
The people hiding in the car pushed open the door tremblingly and got out. The older ones held the younger ones, the young ones supported the older ones, and the strong guards were around, trying to get into the waiting room before the zombies arrived.
Seeing this, the people fighting with the zombies at the door also wanted to go in.
Zheng Gong remembered that many people had just run out to dig for magic crystals, so he quickly reminded them before most people entered the waiting room.
"Each person needs two magic crystals to get on the bus. Don't forget to prepare them. You can't get on the bus without magic crystals."
When the person who was about to come in heard this, he suddenly remembered the message he saw in the group yesterday. For a moment, he didn't know whether to go in or back out.
Like the people before them, they also did not prepare magic crystals in advance, and also did not expect that the situation today would be so serious that they did not even have time to collect magic crystals.
The zombie horde was getting closer and closer, but without the crystal core, they couldn't get on the car.
The entrance to the waiting room was within reach, but the situation didn't allow them to hesitate. Someone gritted their teeth and retracted their foot that had been about to enter the waiting room.
Except for the elderly and children, most people returned to the streets. Those who were strong enough continued to attack the zombies that surrounded them, while others found the corpses of the zombies that had fallen before and tried to dig out the magic crystals from the zombies' chests.
But these people didn't even have any experience in attacking zombies. They lay on the corpses and dug around. They saw that the zombies were only dozens of meters away from them, but only a handful of them succeeded in digging out the magic crystals.
Zheng Cheng looked anxious and jumped out of the waiting room. While attacking the zombies surrounding him, he joined the army digging for crystal cores.
Zheng Gong watched his brother go out and rushed out without thinking. He held the weapon in his hand and guarded Zheng Cheng while he was digging the magic crystal, becoming the safest line of defense for him.
But the others behind the two brothers looked at the zombies getting closer and closer, and they lost the courage to fight anymore. They turned around and ran to the platform behind.
The people who stayed on the train felt nervous when they saw their relatives who had just left running in in a panic. They waited eagerly for their family members to come in and asked about the situation outside.
"Are there more zombies coming?"
"What's going on outside?"
"Why are you all back? Are you hurt?"
The people who came in answered in a flurry.
“Here I come!”
“A large group showed up, so we hurried back!”
"I'm not hurt, I'm fine."
"Is there a sign on the bus? When does this bus leave?"
The carriage suddenly became buzzing with noise. Only the family members still looked solemn, as Zheng Cheng and Zheng Gong still had not returned.
The Jiang family members in the front carriage were always paying attention to the situation outside and were also on high alert. Jiang Dong had already sat in the driver's seat and was ready to set off at any time.
Seeing so many people rushing back, they guessed that the situation ahead was not optimistic.
However, even though the system provides monitoring inside and outside the train, due to the limitations of monitoring range and viewing angle, they cannot see what is happening outside the station through the screen. They can only anxiously speculate based on what the people who have returned say.
Jiang Qian called the system in her mind, "Xiao Ling, can you access the surveillance network of City B?"
The power outage in City B has not yet occurred, so the surveillance throughout the urban area should still be usable.
The icon flashed a few times quickly, "Okay, do you want to see it?"
"Yes, put it on the big screen!"
Several blocks away from the train station, the last group of people were on their way.
In the car moving in front, the woman in the back seat stared at her phone, her eyes widening instantly when she saw the message in the group.
She leaned towards the front row with her phone in hand and said in horror, "The group said there are zombies around the train station now. What should I do?"
The person driving in the front seat stepped on the accelerator to speed up, knocking away the zombies blocking the road, and then cast his eyes on the lit screen.
In the enlarged photo, you can see a large number of zombies attacking.
The wheels rolled over the bodies of the fallen zombies on the street, causing a jolt.
The person in the passenger seat quickly grabbed the armrest above the window to steady himself, but the woman and child in the back seat were dizzy from the bumpy ride and almost lost their grip on their cell phones.
They looked ahead and around, vaguely seeing more and more zombies closing in on them. According to the group chat, there would be even more zombies at the upcoming train station.
The messages in the group were constantly being updated, and the woman reported the current situation to the front row in real time.
"Everyone's asking what to do now? Which road is passable... Wait, Team 4 just said the situation isn't good today, so their car won't leave. Now they're preparing to leave the underground garage and go back upstairs. What should we do?"
The four teams had not set out yet, so they were able to stop the losses in time, but they were already on the road. Continuing forward might be a dead end, and even if they went back, they might not be able to get home safely.
What should we do?
【Author’s words】
【New】
I just applied to become a V and the editor approved it. This article will be V on October 4th. The reverse V chapters will start from Chapter 25. Friends who have already read it should not buy it again.
Also, the editor said that I have to update three times on the day of entering the V stage, so I probably won't be able to do the daily update I promised everyone yesterday. There will probably be no update tomorrow. The slow-moving stupid author will have to save up the update for the day of entering the V stage. I'm really sorry!
I'm pulling my hair out like crazy, ahhhhh, 10,000 words a day, I'm going crazy, can I finish it in two days? [Tears]
After becoming a v-player, I will go to the forum to see if there are any requirements or anything. I will tell you all when I have confirmed it.
Woo woo woo, I'm so sorry!
I applied for seedling cultivation some time ago, and I didn't expect to be selected. I read in the activity rules that if the cultivation is successful, you can enter V. It seems that the trainer can get part of the author's income as a reward. I saw in the background today that it seems that I have reached the V line. I guess entering V will be a matter of these few days. If you want to participate, you can go and see the specific rules of seedling cultivation.
Thank you all for your support, mua!
