Chapter 603 Horde of Zombies
So, we stayed here for almost a week. We had thoroughly figured out the situation on the second and third floors. As for the fourth and fifth floors, we couldn't go up because of personnel restrictions, so we didn't figure out the situation there either, which made us a little confused.
Shen Lin never appeared in front of me again after that. I don't know if he told the boss here about me. If he did, what would I do?
However, a week has passed now, and I suppose Shen Lin hasn't told their boss about my situation yet, otherwise I would have been called up for questioning long ago.
Nothing much happened this morning, but during lunch, Liu Tian came downstairs and told everyone that they were going out to look for resources in the afternoon. He and another person would personally lead the team to search for resources together.
Hu Fei and I are naturally included in this group.
It wasn't afternoon yet, around 12:30, when our group left the office building and headed deeper into Hangzhou.
Hangzhou is a large city, divided into many districts, each with its own resources. It's impossible to plunder them all. So, this time, Liu Tian plans to go deep into the West Lake District. If he can obtain a lot of resources along the way, he will return early. If not, he will continue to go deeper.
Such actions are dangerous, especially when so many people are acting together.
However, after leaving the office building, Liu Tian divided the team into three groups, each with about eleven or twelve people. I don't know if Liu Tian did it on purpose, but Hu Fei and I were completely separated. I followed Liu Tian, while Hu Fei followed another person. From the moment we set off, we were separated.
Liu Tian called me into the car and specifically instructed me, "Kid, I don't care about your past, but now that you've joined us, you'll have to follow my instructions from now on. If you're unwilling or cause trouble, I'll kill you directly, understand?"
I nodded and said, "I understand."
Liu Tian said, "I'll only say this once. If you understand, that's good. Let's go."
I don't know what Liu Tian is up to, but there must be an element of testing me in it. After all, although Shen Lin agreed to let me stay, the others don't trust me, so testing is inevitable.
Let them test me if they want. As long as I survive, that's all that matters. What do I care if you people live or die?
After much thought, we found ourselves deep inside Hangzhou.
At this moment, Liu Tian said, "Alright, let's stop the car."
Once the driver stopped the car and turned off the engine, it was eerily quiet inside and outside the car. The car behind us also stopped.
Looking out the car window, there were no zombies outside, and it seemed very safe, but the oppressive feeling made me a little uneasy, and the surroundings gave me a very uncomfortable feeling.
Liu Tian said, "Let's go straight in from here. Driving in later would be too much trouble. Grab your gear and get out of the car."
After we got off the bus, I saw that each of them had at least a handgun and a machete, but I had nothing in my hands.
Liu Tian looked at it, opened the trunk, took out a machete, handed it to me, and asked, "Do you know how to use it?"
I nodded and said, "I know how to use it, but could you give me a gun?"
Liu Tian said, "I won't give you the gun. I don't think you're cut out to shoot. What if it goes off accidentally? Alright, just hide behind us when we encounter zombies. What's there to be afraid of?"
After she said that, everyone around her burst into laughter.
"Quiet down, all of you! Do you want to attract zombies?!" Liu Tian roared.
The laughter around them vanished instantly.
I understand why Liu Tian made that arrangement. If I were carrying a gun, Liu Tian definitely wouldn't feel at ease. It's not that he's worried I can't kill zombies, but rather that he's worried I'll kill them, since I'm still an outsider.
I glanced at the machete in my hand and looked at the desolate and silent streets and buildings around me. I suddenly remembered the time when Fei Lichao and the others left Hangzhou. We were standing in such streets back then, constantly running away and killing zombies. It all felt like yesterday.
But unexpectedly, a year passed just like that, and many people died.
"Let's go." Liu Tian gave the order, and everyone tried to make as little noise as possible as they walked deeper into Hangzhou.
I followed at the very back of them, strolling leisurely.
I've seen how many zombies there are in Hangzhou a long time ago, and I know how dangerous it is. But a year has passed, so there must be far fewer zombies here than before.
With that in mind, I continued to delve deeper.
Liu Tian led the way, guiding everyone into an alleyway. Two corpses lay on the ground in the alley. As Liu Tian stepped over the corpses, one of them suddenly moved, reaching out to grab Liu Tian's ankle and attempting to bite him.
Liu Tian was about to take out his knife to slash.
Bang!
A gunshot rang out, and a zombie on the ground was hit in the head by a bullet.
Gunshots rang out throughout the alley. Liu Tian covered his ears, which had been nearly deafened by the blast, and glared angrily at the person behind him, saying, "Are you fucking crazy?"
"No, Brother Liu, I just saved you!" the person behind him said awkwardly.
Liu Tian frowned. "Do you think I didn't see this zombie? Didn't you see I even drew my knife? Are you trying to attract all the zombies around here by firing like that?"
"I, I..." The guy couldn't speak.
Liu Tian ignored him and said, "Hurry up and leave, the zombies around here are definitely coming."
I saw the whole thing just now. Liu Tian was indeed capable of dealing with that zombie, and the person behind him firing the shot was a bit unnecessary.
Without thinking much about it, I followed them forward.
"Get out of here! The zombies are coming!"
Liu Tianchao shouted from behind, and everyone immediately started running after him.
I followed closely behind them, and the moment I ran out of the alley, my expression changed drastically.
Because the street in front of them was teeming with zombies, Liu Tian and his companions managed to squeeze through the gaps between them.
When I came out, the gap had been filled with zombies.
The guy in front of me charged forward and was immediately buried by a dense horde of zombies.
Bang! Bang! Bang...
Gunshots rang out continuously from the horde of zombies, followed by a scream as the guy in front of me was instantly torn to pieces by the zombies.
If I go there now, I'll only face certain death.
There's no other way but to back down!
As for Liu Tian and the others, forget about them, surviving is the most important thing!
