Led by the soldiers, the group quickly reached the foot of the hill and ran towards a ravine.
As they approached the ravine, Company Commander Zhao stopped and ordered another flare to be fired towards the hillside behind them. The flare immediately revealed that the hillside was teeming with zombies.
