Like lightning, cars sped through the gate. Well-trained soldiers, armed with advanced laser guns, unleashed a fierce barrage of fire on the horde of zombies ahead.
Blinding laser beams streaked across the sky like lightning, striking their targets with pinpoint accuracy. The once menacing and ferocious zombies collapsed to the ground, unable to rise. In the blink of an eye, the area was nearly wiped out of zombies.
However, a steady stream of zombies continued to arrive from afar, drawn by the noise. Since their weapons were not inexhaustible, the soldiers acted decisively, retrieving pre-prepared drones and activating their onboard music players.
The stirring melody suddenly resounded through the sky, attracting the surging zombies to change their course and move towards the source of the sound.
Immediately afterward, the rescue team headed to the laboratory building. Once inside, the soldiers carefully searched every corner to ensure no potential threat was overlooked. They then rushed to the canteen and library, among other places.
Upon arrival at their destination, the soldiers instructed, "Everyone, quickly grab your important belongings and keep up with us!" The researchers were fortunate enough to evacuate with them in their vehicles.
As for other groups, they need to make a choice based on their own circumstances. If they have less luggage, they can take priority to ride in the trucks provided by the military; but if they have too much luggage, they will face a dilemma - either abandon some luggage to board the truck, or find an available car on their own and follow closely behind the convoy.
Xu Anran and her group, with their spacious and comfortable RV, naturally had no worries about transportation. They skillfully drove their vehicle, steadily following the rescue team. Meanwhile, others were busily packing their belongings; some were fortunate enough to find suitable transportation and were able to catch up with the main group; others, however, were forced to remain behind for various reasons, anxiously awaiting the next round of rescue…
The library staff boarded the military trucks. Some noticed that the vehicle carrying Xu Anran and her group was quite spacious and couldn't help but consider joining them. However, Xu Anran decisively refused these requests.
Meanwhile, another group, led by a blond-haired man, also tried to hitch a ride due to their excessive and heavy luggage. Unfortunately, their hopes were dashed again. After being refused, the blond-haired group's faces darkened, and they glared fiercely at Xu Anran and her companions. They then had no choice but to search for other vehicles themselves. After some effort, they finally found a slightly cramped SUV, but it was enough to barely accommodate everyone.
The entire journey was smooth and unimpeded, passing through many residential areas along the way. The residents of those areas had already received the news in advance and had prepared their vehicles, quietly waiting for the rescue team to arrive.
Whenever the rescue team arrives at such a location, they will temporarily stop and quickly clear away the surrounding zombies so that vehicles in the community can follow safely.
The convoy continued its journey, the atmosphere tense yet orderly. However, when they reached an overpass, an unexpected incident occurred—the previously intact overpass suddenly collapsed! This sudden change completely blocked the road, making further traffic impossible.
It's important to know that only by crossing this overpass can one reach the only road to the island in the middle of the lake. With no other option and no way to detour, the rescue team urgently contacted the base.
The base instructed them to abandon their vehicles and instead climb the bridge on foot to cross the obstacle course. Once successfully completed, the base would dispatch another vehicle to pick them up.
The rescue team members organized everyone to disembark from the vehicles in an orderly manner and instructed them to proceed on foot. Each person was to decide how much luggage to carry based on their own physical condition, ensuring that they carried only what they could manage.
For those with a lot of luggage, they face difficult choices, having to give up some less important items. However, those with less luggage experience a different kind of balance.
Xu Anran and her group were positioned in the middle of the group. Meanwhile, members of the rescue team were distributed at both ends of the group: someone at the front was responsible for leading the way, while someone at the rear was responsible for ensuring safety.
At this moment, Huang Mao and his gang were already disgruntled about the luggage. As they began climbing the bridge, they happened to see Xu Anran and her group walking ahead of them. This only fueled Huang Mao's anger.
As he followed the group at a leisurely pace, he thought to himself, "Hmph! It would be best if these people could take a hard fall and fall right off the bridge! That scene would definitely be very exciting and spectacular!"
The more Huang Mao thought about it, the more indignant he became. Unbeknownst to him, he had quietly moved behind Xiao Feng. Taking advantage of Xiao Feng's momentary lapse in attention, he suddenly stretched out his hands and shoved him forward... In an instant, a scream rang out—Xiao Feng had actually been pushed off the bridge!
"Ah—" With a scream, Xiao Feng suddenly felt his body go light, and he instantly lost his support, falling straight down! He frantically stretched out his hands, desperately grabbing at anything that could save his life.
At that critical moment, his fingertips touched a cold, hard piece of steel, and as if grasping at a last straw, he held on tightly. At that moment, Xiao Feng hung alone in mid-air, his life hanging by a thread.
He screamed at the top of his lungs, "Sister An'an... Sister An'an, save me..." Fear and despair surged into his heart like a tidal wave, and tears flowed out like a burst dam.
Xu Anran, who was standing to the side, witnessed this thrilling scene. She was extremely anxious and instinctively wanted to reach out and grab Xiaofeng. However, everything happened too fast. Before she could even react, Xiaofeng had already fallen and was hanging in mid-air.
The people around were also quite frightened by this sudden turn of events. Some, out of kindness, immediately rushed forward to offer their help; others urged everyone to leave this dangerous place quickly; and still others cautiously and carefully bypassed them, hurrying away.
The blond-haired man who pushed Xiao Feng off the cliff was completely stunned. He had only had a fleeting evil thought, but he never expected to actually act on it. Faced with the extremely angry Xu Anran and Xu Liang, he panicked completely, his legs went weak, and he kept apologizing to them, claiming that he did not do it on purpose.
