Highway 7
The zombies still broke through the service area, and Chu Yun worked non-stop to deal with the 30 zombies in front, but one died, and new zombies came to replenish them in an endless stream.
When I reached into the arrow box again, there was nothing inside.
[The arrows have been used up. Please wait for them to cool down.]
Cooling time: 12 hours.
Chu Yun: “…”
There are about 200 zombies now, and their number is extremely large in this small parking lot. It seems that several zombies are about to rush to the exit.
Chu Yun called out to Wang Mao, who was directing traffic in the aisle, without hesitation: "Hurry up and get in the car."
She couldn't bear it any longer and needed to run away quickly.
Upon hearing this, Wang Mao quickly ran back to the car.
Chu Yun jumped down from the roof of the car with a swift move, opened the door, started the car, turned the steering wheel, stepped on the accelerator, and quickly fled the scene in one go.
When the players with the remaining 5 cars saw the boss Chu Yun leave, they suddenly felt insecure. Why did she leave? What about them?
But Chu Yun didn't care about that. She drove her sports car on the road with peace of mind. She had done enough and the rest could only be solved by herself.
Zombies don't feel tired or in pain, they always keep moving forward at a steady pace. But humans do get tired, and many players who abandoned their cars and fled only then realized the importance of vehicles, running out of breath.
Sooner or later, they would be killed by zombies if they continued like this. Some players saw cars coming up from behind and planned to stop them. Some players would be kind enough to let them get on, but more players would simply not let them get on because there were no empty seats.
It's so funny. At this time, everyone is thinking about escaping and no one cares about your life or death.
Zhang Xiaomei was one of those who abandoned their car and fled. At that time, her car was closest to the zombies in the service area. After pushing Yue Shan, she quickly fled the scene.
She'd initially thought she'd been the first to escape the zombie scene, and she'd been feeling smug. But that wasn't the case. Running fast was exhausting, and she, a relative novice, was already feeling a bit exhausted. Zombies, however, never tire. Gazing at the vast swarm of zombies behind her, Zhang Xiaomei knew she'd eventually be overtaken by her own legs, so she prepared to intercept the approaching vehicles. Regardless of whether the bus was full or not, whether it was willing or not, she'd stop it. If they refused to help, she'd just delay them, Zhang Xiaomei thought sinisterly.
Unfortunately, the person I met was Chu Yun.
She saw Zhang Xiaomei standing in the middle of the road from afar, with her arms outstretched to block her way.
"Boss, what should we do?" Wang Mao turned his head and looked at Chu Yun.
Chu Yun didn't respond, but answered him with practical actions.
She didn't hesitate at all. She kept her foot on the accelerator, showing no sign of slowing down. The sports car sped towards Zhang Xiaomei. She guessed that Zhang Xiaomei would never dare to risk her life to block it.
20 meters, 15 meters, 10 meters, getting closer and closer. Zhang Xiaomei's heart beat faster and faster, almost in her throat. Chu Yun hadn't slowed down or changed direction. Was she going to run over her body? She didn't take human life seriously. She would be crushed to death under the wheels.
5 meters, 3 meters, and sure enough, in the last second, Zhang Xiaomei finally couldn't bear it anymore and jumped to the side quickly. Her body trembled uncontrollably, and she almost died.
Chu Yun drove his sports car past her at high speed, leaving only a trail of exhaust fumes behind.
"Crazy, this lunatic." Zhang Xiaomei cursed in the direction Chu Yun left, and then continued to stand in the middle of the road unwillingly to stop the next passing vehicle.
But Chuyun was one of the last few cars to leave. Zhang Xiaomei saw that only three of the remaining five cars had escaped, and behind them were piles of zombies. Damn it! They couldn't even save themselves, let alone save me. She resigned herself to her fate and continued trotting forward.
Chu Yun sped up to the maximum speed, nimbly passing one car after another blocking the way in front of him, and only breathed a sigh of relief when he was far ahead of the car that started first.
The rules of this game were so twisted. If the zombies didn't increase in number, she could easily face just 20 zombies alone. But the current situation was that there were many powerless players. If they were attacked and killed, the zombies would double in number. She didn't have the ability to control all the players, so she could only flee.
Wang Mao watched Chu Yun calmly kill 50 zombies beside him, and his admiration grew even stronger. They were both young people, so why did she stand out so much? Besides, she was still a little girl. In comparison, he looked like a weakling. Wang Mao made up his mind that whenever he had time, he would exercise and improve his physical fitness.
Chu Yun didn't know that he had invisibly inspired someone to make progress.
The zombies were no longer visible, but Chu Yun didn't stop. The announcements of player deaths and the increasing number of zombies continued overhead. She knew that if she gave the zombies enough time, they would eventually catch up.
Two hours later, she and Wang Mao exchanged seats. Wang Mao drove and she sat in the passenger seat with her eyes closed to rest.
This was Wang Mao's suggestion. He said that unless absolutely necessary, he would drive the rest of the way, and Chu Yun should rest as much as possible. They didn't know what kind of difficulties they would encounter next, so they both needed to maintain sufficient energy. Furthermore, compared to Wang Mao, Chu Yun's sufficient energy was more valuable than his.
Chu Yun agreed with his approach. Some people may not be particularly talented in certain areas, but they can make up for their shortcomings with diligence and do more things within their capabilities. So when Wang Mao made this request, she happily accepted it.
She sat in the passenger seat, her head tilted back, comfortably half-lying on the reclining seat. Having a little helper is nice! There are so many chores I don't have to do myself.
Chu Yun sighed as he looked at the scenery slowly passing by outside the car.
Wang Mao's driving was not fast, but it was steady. Unlike Chu Yun, whose driving was like riding a roller coaster, the passengers often felt dizzy and nauseous because of her speed.
At noon, they stopped by the roadside to refuel and rest for an hour. The zombies took advantage of this hour to catch up with them. They had no choice but to continue driving. Throughout the night, Chu Yun and Wang Mao only rested for 2 hours before being awakened by the zombies and put on the road again. The two of them took turns driving, one driving for a few hours before waking the other.
Due to insufficient rest time, the two looked very lethargic, as if they had been drinking all night.
Day 12 of the game.
The system announced on time: [The second wave of zombies has been released. Please try your best to escape.]
The game was getting more difficult, and the number of zombies today was significantly higher than yesterday. Chu Yun had already killed several groups of zombies blocking her way. Fortunately, there weren't many zombies, so she could still handle it.
Wang Mao suggested exchanging the bow and arrow for Chu Yun's dagger. The bow and arrow required extremely high skills and it would be a pity for him to keep it in his hands if he didn't know how to use it. However, the dagger was very easy to use, after all, he had used it quite often with fruit knives and kitchen knives.
So the two exchanged weapons. It must be said that a handy weapon will increase a person's combat effectiveness. Chu Yun saw that when she was fighting the zombies, Wang Mao also mustered up the courage to kill one or two zombies with a sharp knife.
Today, they also encountered a caravan that was under attack by zombies, but unfortunately, when Chu Yun dealt with the zombies, the players in the caravan were already dead and were teleported out of the game copy. Chu Yun searched and found 10 meat floss buns from their car, which was just enough for Wang Mao to eat for the next few days.
Wang Mao accepted the fruits of victory with a smile. He originally wanted to survive for another day or two, but he didn't expect to meet a big boss and end up being supported by him.
Chu Yun looked at the little brother beside him, who was smiling like a servile boy, with a look of disgust on his face.
Days 13 and 14 of the game.
The third and fourth waves of zombies were released. Previously, there was no one on the endless road, but now zombies can be seen at any time.
Previously, the large number of players dispersed some of the zombies. Now, with only a few players left, the zombies gathered around the scent of the living. Chu Yun and Wang Mao were among those few remaining players.
In the past two days, they have been playing extreme tracking games with zombies without stopping for a second, so of course they don't look very good.
With no time to wash, Chu Yun was filthy, his sweat and zombie blood mingling, creating a sickening stench. Wang Mao was even worse off. He couldn't match Chu Yun's strength, and his body was covered in wounds. He looked like pickled cabbage, smelly, sour, and unpleasant. But he refused to quit the game, insisting on emulating the masters, honing his willpower, and never giving up until the very last moment.
“…”
The courage is commendable and worthy of admiration.
Chu Yun lowered her head and sniffed the stench of her own body. Then, looking at the tattered Wang Mao, she felt a touch of sympathy. If she had always been in the apocalypse, she wouldn't have cared at all about her current situation. Once people have experienced happiness, they tend to harbor extravagant desires and yearnings. Now, she desperately wanted to finish the game quickly and return to the more humane 135 community, where she could take a good shower and get some sleep.
Day 15 of the game, finally the last day.
The two of them were in noticeably better spirits.
At 1 p.m., Chu Yun and Wang Mao stopped for lunch. Just as they finished, they saw another wave of zombies approaching from behind. Their bodies were heavily decayed, their eyes bulging, their limbs twisted, and they were making croaking, growling sounds as they moved towards Chu Yun.
They were like indestructible cockroaches, with waves coming one after another, making it impossible to defend against them. There were about 100 of them behind the car, and Chu Yun didn't intend to confront them head-on, so he immediately started the car and rushed forward.
After many days of dealing with them, the two have become completely accustomed to it. When zombies come, they run away, and when they disappear, they rest. They repeat this process as if they are doing a simple task.
Unfortunately, another wave of zombies came in front of the car, and their number was no less than the group behind it.
Sure enough, the difficulty of the game is increasing.
"Boss, what should we do?" Wang Mao looked at the pile of zombies not far away and his scalp tingled. If he accidentally fell in, there would be no trace of him left!
There were many zombies ahead, and those behind were hot on her heels. After a split second of thought, Chu Yun concluded her car couldn't make it through the zombie horde. She yanked the steering wheel, executed a perfect turn, and headed for the desert. Driven by inertia and the powerful horsepower, the car continued to travel a long distance through the desert, but the sand was still too much of a drag, and before long, the wheels sank into the sand, unable to move.
