Chapter 70 Holding Your Breath
The light on the first floor was not bright.
Soon, the zombies came up the escalator. Although the light shining through the glass windows slowed them down, they were now right in front of them.
Yu Jie immediately used his superpower. Dense spikes appeared rapidly under the zombies' feet, piercing the zombies in the front row. They lost their footing and fell backward.
Everyone ran outside quickly, but after only a few steps, their path was blocked by zombies coming down from the second and third floors.
"Zeming, I'll hold off the zombies behind us. You clear the way ahead. Just get out of here."
"Um."
The two worked together seamlessly, quickly taking turns in front and behind to protect the team inside.
The others weren't going to hold them back either; they quickly adjusted their positions to help the two of them. Only Ling Ran was the most idle.
Of course, they knew that Ling Ran could handle this situation on her own.
But they can't always rely on the big shots, after all, the big shots can't protect them forever. If they don't go out and train, if they don't kill zombies, they'll die at the hands of humans eventually, even if they don't die at the hands of zombies.
Seeing this, Ling Ran felt quite relaxed and at ease.
He leisurely pulled out a bag of spicy strips and started eating, hissing and panting as he ate.
The rest of the people: "..."
calm!
Stay calm!
Hold your breath and don't smell the spicy snack!
Wow~ This spicy snack is so overpowering! Even though there are so many zombies around, and the stench is enough to make you want to vomit, it still can't mask the flavor of the spicy snack.
The group felt their noses were suffering terribly, experiencing alternating sensations of hot and cold, sometimes smelling bad and sometimes smelling good.
The zombies paid no heed to their feelings; upon seeing the food, they pounced on it, and everyone quickly activated their superpowers.
Zhou Hang and Guo Qingyu, both possessing level one water-based superpowers, conjured a large water ball and attacked the zombie's head.
The strength and speed-type characters Yao Jiafei and Pei Xiu were inspired by the level 3 zombies in the service area. Pei Xiu quickly took control, and Yao Jiafei followed up. With a "bang," she swiftly chopped off the zombie's head with her machete.
Liu Xiuping, who had no special abilities, would slip among them and, whenever she saw a lone zombie, quickly decapitate it with her steel knife.
After each head was chopped off, the zombies did not die, but because they were unable to move, they would be fine as long as the heads were kicked away.
However, these heads didn't need their attention. With a slight kick, they were crushed flat by the dense horde of zombies and died completely.
After killing dozens of zombies, everyone turned pale; their superpowers had been exhausted.
But they did not give up; instead, they drew their weapons.
"Bang!"
Without his superpowers, Pei Xiu was about to take out his weapon when he saw the gun hanging on his chest.
Pei Xiu: "..."
At this moment, he wanted to cry from his own stupidity.
Then, a shot rang out.
At this moment, Zhou Hang, who was completely dumbfounded, exclaimed, "Damn! I have a gun! Why didn't anyone remind me?"
The guns were powerful, but neither of them were good marksmen.
If the bullets don't hit the zombies' heads, but only their bodies, they only slightly slow them down.
"Bang bang bang bang!"
Gunshots rang out continuously.
The group used firepower to suppress the enemy while retreating.
Soon, everyone retreated to the doorway.
Not far from the entrance, a dozen or so zombies were rushing towards them.
"Get out first," Yang Zemin shouted, and jumped out first.
