Chapter 115 A Distance of 5 Meters
"Fatty, run!"
Han Shuo shouted anxiously, "Just now, the Linghui zombie had gathered all the zombies in the vicinity."
Although there weren't many zombies in his field of vision at the moment, Han Shuo knew that a zombie encirclement had already formed further away.
The situation here is now very different from what it was like in H City last time.
In the city, if you react quickly and are lucky, you might have a chance to sneak into a building and hide.
However, this is the outskirts of the city, and the surrounding area is desolate with not a single building in sight.
Only by escaping quickly in the shortest possible time can one successfully break through the weak points of the zombies.
If the zombie horde continues to grow, the three of them will ultimately be surrounded and killed here.
Han Shuo couldn't imagine how many zombies were within a few kilometers.
...
"I know that too, I'm running!"
The fat man responded from behind, saying that although he was a genetically engineered human, he still couldn't adapt to the speed quickly enough.
At this moment, she was still not as fast as Han Shuo, who was carrying Li Shurou on his shoulder.
The car wasn't parked too far away, and soon Han Shuo arrived first, reached out and opened the car door, throwing Li Shurou inside.
The fat man also ran over. The two nodded to each other and quickly got into the car, with the fat man still driving.
Ignite the engine, shift gears, and step on the gas.
The fat man moved swiftly, and the car shot off with a roar.
"Which way are you running?!" the fat man said anxiously, his forehead covered in sweat.
"South!" Han Shuo pointed to the road.
The south was the direction the three had come from; fleeing in the opposite direction would increase their chances of breaking through.
"good!"
...
Before long, the car had driven about 4 kilometers.
Suddenly, the fat man stopped the car because the road ahead was completely blocked by a dense wall of zombies.
"Quick, turn around and look to the west!"
Han Shuo continued to adjust his route. Since the main road was no longer passable, he had no choice but to find another way to survive.
As soon as he finished speaking, the fat man swerved and drove the car directly into the wasteland.
The car sped along the dirt road, kicking up large amounts of yellow sand from its rear.
"Han Shuo, are we really going to get killed here today? There are just too many zombies!"
The fat man said as he drove.
"You fat bastard, shut your mouth!"
Before Han Shuo could speak, Li Shurou scolded and berated him.
"Don't worry, we will definitely be able to break through!"
At this point, all Han Shuo could do was try to boost everyone's morale, even though the situation was really not optimistic.
The car kept driving along the edge of the human wall formed by zombies, and after driving for so long, Han Shuo still couldn't find a place to break through.
Every location, every corner, was surrounded by swarms of zombies, and behind these zombies, there were even more terrifying numbers.
"Han Shuo, this side isn't working either!" The fat man wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.
"Wait a minute, keep driving and keep looking!"
Han Shuo was also very anxious. He quickly remembered something, took out his backpack, and pulled out a map.
The map has been updated again; this one was obtained from an underground research institute and is more detailed.
Han Shuo determined his current location and then made adjustments based on the map instructions.
"Fatty, turn around quickly and head southeast. That's the closest road to the city!"
"good!"
Upon hearing that there was a city to the southeast, Fatty and Li Shurou became excited. The closer they got to the city, the more buildings there were. If the three of them could find a taller house, they might actually be able to escape this zombie horde.
The fat man quickly changed direction, heading east, south, west, and north—he'd only missed the east.
The east was their last hope, while the north was the direction the people in the camp were fleeing.
Han Shuo knew without a doubt that the north was the most difficult place to break through, because there were too many survivors there. During the escape, some would inevitably die, and as soon as one person died, the smell of blood would spread.
To the north, it will become a living hell.
Time passed slowly, and before they knew it, the zombie encirclement had shrunk from 5 kilometers to about 3 kilometers. The footsteps of death were gradually drawing closer.
A few minutes later, the fat man drove to the designated location.
After crossing a dirt slope, the fat man's eyes lit up.
"Han Shuo, I see it! Look quickly, there's a three-story building about 100 meters ahead."
Even without Fatty saying anything, Han Shuo and Li Shurou saw it too.
"Quick, step on the gas and rush over!" Han Shuo shouted anxiously.
"But the zombie horde has already crossed that building!" The fat man hesitated for a moment.
"Stop dawdling! There's still a chance. There don't seem to be too many zombies there. We might be able to break through!" Han Shuo shouted sharply.
"Damn it, let's go all out!"
Without further hesitation, the fat man floored the accelerator and sped forward in the car.
"Bang bang bang—!"
The car rammed into several zombies in succession, and soon plunged directly into the horde of zombies.
The three of them suddenly found themselves in darkness. Han Shuo quickly turned on the roof light, and two seconds later, the car stopped moving.
"Boom, boom, boom!"
The fat man's heart was in his throat, but he kept pressing the accelerator pedal.
Luck was not on Han Shuo's side. There were just too many zombies ahead, and the car's power could not move forward any further.
They were completely surrounded by zombies. At this moment, the windows were covered with zombies, and some zombies had even climbed up from the front of the car.
Through the gap in front of them, Han Shuo could already see the three-story building, which was less than 5 meters away.
This 5-meter distance felt like a cliff, preventing the three of them from taking another step.
"We... are finished." The fat man pounded the steering wheel angrily with both hands, his heart filled with resentment.
"Sigh, it's better that we're dead. The three of us can be considered free from this burden sooner."
Li Shurou sighed, seemingly carefree, but in reality, a tear had unknowingly rolled down her cheek.
She still wanted to live...
"Fatty, Shurou, as long as we're still alive, we can't give up!" Han Shuo said with a determined look in his eyes.
He would never give up until the very last second before he closed his eyes!
"We're completely blocked here. This time, we're really finished."
Han Shuo pressed his hands on the fat man's shoulders and shook him violently.
If fat people completely lose confidence, then they are truly doomed.
"Fatty, cheer up. There aren't too many zombies behind us. Back up quickly, we have to get out of here first."
Hearing Han Shuo's shout, the fat man's fighting spirit gradually returned!
"Fine! You damn zombies, even if we can't get out, I'll still run over a few more of them to take with me."
The fat man cursed, quickly shifted into reverse, and slammed on the gas pedal.
"Boom, boom, boom!"
There were fewer zombies behind, and the wheels weren't completely stuck. The car roared for a while before finally breaking through the zombie horde.
The three of them saw the light of day again.
