Chapter 255 Am I Going to Die?
In the zombie city, two figures darted swiftly through the streets.
At this moment, the two figures were three streets apart.
However, it is clear that the scarlet figure behind is moving much faster.
One escaped, and one chased!
The distance is constantly shrinking, shrinking...
...
Manager Wang was covered in sweat, but he continued running without stopping.
He didn't even dare to look back; he just wanted to run faster, faster!
Because, as the director had said before.
Even if I become a genetically evolved human of level 6, I am still far from being a match for the Zombie King. Escaping from his clutches would be the best outcome.
"How could he spot me from that far away?"
Manager Wang felt he had been careful enough, but he didn't expect to be discovered anyway.
He was extremely shocked.
He felt that the zombie king was even more terrifying than the director had described.
Because he hadn't slept since last night, his physical strength was no longer at its peak.
Without a second thought, Manager Wang pulled out a dose of adrenaline from his pocket and quickly injected it into his left arm.
Because it was an enhanced version of the medicine, its effects took hold very quickly.
His fatigue vanished, and he felt full of energy again, his steps becoming much more agile.
And so he continued his escape.
As they turned a corner, Manager Wang suddenly discovered that the road ahead was blocked by dozens of zombies.
"Get out of my way!"
He shouted and, without the slightest hesitation, charged straight at the body.
In an instant, he knocked several zombies away, without causing him much trouble.
At the same time, the zombie king finally caught up from behind.
The moment he turned the corner, he spotted the figure ahead, and also noticed the distinctive bald head.
"Um?"
"It's Wang Zhen. He's made great progress these past two years..."
He seemed somewhat disappointed and muttered to himself a few more times.
"I thought it was that old guy Yue Zongyang."
"Hmph! But thinking about it, it makes sense. How could that coward dare to come in person?"
"Alright, alright, we've had enough of this. Let's have some fun with your men today."
...
At this moment, Steward Wang, who was in front, heard the commotion behind him and quickly turned around to look.
He saw the zombie king's wicked smile!
Manager Wang felt a chill in his heart. The aura emanating from the zombie king made him realize that he had no ability to resist.
"Wow, so fast!"
As the distance between them continued to close, he gradually sensed the approach of death.
Manager Wang quickly calculated the two men's running speed in his mind, and waited for the result.
He suddenly felt that he had no chance to escape.
This location is quite a distance from outside the city.
Even if I go the fastest, it will probably still take me about an hour.
The zombie king behind him will probably catch up to him in 10 minutes.
"hehe……"
Manager Wang gave a self-deprecating laugh. How could he possibly delay the situation for those 50 minutes?
Keep running!
He thought to himself, there is no hope, but that doesn't mean I will give up!
He also wanted to live on...
Time passed by, bit by bit.
At the eighth minute, Manager Wang threw all the grenades out of his pocket behind him.
"Pound, pound, pound, pound!..."
Grenades exploded one after another, seemingly slowing the Zombie King's steps. As a result, Manager Wang increased the distance between the two sides again.
But when the smoke cleared, the zombie king emerged unharmed.
A wicked smile remained on his lips as he watched the figure ahead and chased after it once more.
"Is it no use? This is an enhanced grenade, its explosive power is no less than that of a regular rocket launcher."
Just how strong is he?
Manager Wang smiled bitterly; this was the first time he had ever felt powerless.
Five minutes later, the zombie king caught up with him again.
The moment Steward Wang turned his head, he saw a flash of scarlet light, followed by a huge scythe appearing before his eyes.
In a critical moment, he dodged the attack with amazing reflexes.
A mocking voice came from behind.
"Oh? Your reaction was pretty quick. You actually dodged it."
Manager Wang gave no response whatsoever, nor did he dare to pause for even a moment.
The zombie king's voice came again.
“Wang Zhen, this isn’t exactly a friendly attitude when old acquaintances meet.”
Steward Wang's eyes revealed his determination, but he still did not respond.
The Zombie King knew him, and he naturally knew the Zombie King as well.
However, he had no interest in catching up with the zombie king at the moment.
"Run! Keep running!"
Encouraging himself, Manager Wang continued running forward.
Unbeknownst to them, the zombie king's speed actually decreased somewhat.
The Zombie King had no grudge against Wang Zhenwu.
Therefore, he was not in such a hurry to kill Wang Zhen.
He was simply extremely interested in this 'cat and mouse' game.
The situation was just like when he controlled the giant alien to chase Han Shuo and the others.
Especially after the nuclear radiation, the zombie king rarely sees human survivors outside.
He enjoys the feeling of toying with humans...
And so, the two figures continued to move through the city at roughly the same speed.
The zombie king would occasionally tug lightly on the iron chain in his hand, and his huge scarlet scythe would also occasionally slash forward.
"Bang!"
Dust billowed up from the scythe's impact, and Manager Wang had lost count of how many times he had dodged its attacks.
He became increasingly disheveled, and at this moment, he realized the zombie king's true intentions.
I've been tricked!
Manager Wang felt as if a giant hand from the heavens was above his head.
No matter how he tried to escape, he could never see the sunlight and remained trapped in the shadow of that giant hand.
Exhaustion! Desolation! Powerlessness! Despair...
Various negative emotions kept flooding into my mind.
Steward Wang knew that he was probably powerless to change the situation today, but he was still somewhat unwilling to give up.
He still wanted to live, and he still wanted to continue protecting more humans in the underground research institute...
Driven by this unwillingness to give up, by this obsession, he kept running, kept running...
After an unknown amount of time, Steward Wang finally reached the edge of the city.
A flame of hope instantly ignited in his heart; he saw his motorcycle outside the city...
"Alive!"
Just as he was encouraging himself, the voice of the zombie king came to his ears again from behind.
"Alright, Wang Zhen, let's call it a day!"
As soon as the voice fell, the huge, scarlet scythe swung towards Steward Wang at several times the speed of before.
He was completely unable to react, and didn't even have time to turn around and look...
In an instant!
"brush!"
The sickle struck Steward Wang squarely in the back, blood and flesh splattering everywhere! A deep, bone-revealing wound instantly appeared.
"ah--!"
Manager Wang let out a scream and collapsed to the ground.
"Am I... going to die...?"
