No one can trace the origin of the zombie outbreak.
Guo Mo could only protect the city center from invasion; he had to abandon the rest of the city.
Over the years, the infection rate has increased rapidly, and some zombies have even developed supernatural abilities.
Therefore, Guo Mo was even more unable to cope.
Some people concealed their infection and entered the safe zone, and the lack of thorough checks accelerated the fall of City A.
Therefore, most of the superhumans have fled City A.
What was once a prosperous city is now almost a ruin, a city overrun by zombies.
Guo Mo blamed himself for not protecting City A, but he had done his best.
Chen Peng genuinely considered Guo Mo as his captain, but Jian Meng had saved his life after all, so he felt he had to side with Jian Meng.
If it weren't for Jian Meng, he might have already turned into a zombie.
Now is the time when unity is most needed, and he doesn't want the two of them to disband the team because of momentary emotions.
He Ying stood to the side without saying a word, cautiously observing her surroundings.
Just then, she noticed someone walking towards them from a distance and reminded them, "There's someone ahead."
Mu Tiantian watched them from a distance, wanting to use her superpower, but she still couldn't.
System: [The trees belonging to Lü Wendong have shrunk to a distance of 5,000 meters.]
Guo Mo heard He Ying's voice and looked into the distance. The person was wearing an overcoat and a fisherman's hat, with long hair fluttering in the wind.
It looked like a woman; she was looking down, so her face couldn't be seen.
She seems to be the woman Jianmeng chatted up in the supermarket earlier.
Guo Mo glanced around. It must be at least a kilometer or two from here to the supermarket. How could she be so fast!
He hadn't seen her at the supermarket entrance either.
Could he be a superhuman?
Or is it a mutated zombie with superpowers?
Guo Mo felt a little uneasy.
Even if all four of them combined, they couldn't beat Lü Wendong.
If another mutated zombie were to appear now, they would truly be doomed here today.
"Is that a person or a zombie?" Chen Peng shielded Jian Meng behind him.
Jian Meng was still thinking about what Guo Mo had just said, feeling both wronged and angry.
But Chen Peng always protected her, so she felt she hadn't done anything wrong.
Mu Tiantian walked forward with her head down. Suddenly, a gust of wind blew up, and a few dark clouds appeared in the clear sky.
System: [It looks like it's about to rain.]
Mu Tiantian: [We need to hide quickly and avoid getting wet.]
As she approached Guo Mo and his group of four, a gust of wind blew up some fallen leaves.
She took a step back to avoid being touched by the fallen leaves.
Guo Mo noticed her movement and saw the leaves in the air also flinch. He said to the other three, "Don't touch these leaves."
He Ying and Chen Peng both hid after hearing this.
Jianmeng, puzzled, reached out and caught a leaf.
However, just as she touched the fallen leaves, a branch quickly extended and wrapped around her, lifting her high into the air.
"Jian Meng!" Chen Peng shouted anxiously.
"Found it." The voice came from not far away, rough and chilling.
Upon hearing Lü Wendong's voice, Mu Tiantian used her supernatural ability again.
This time it worked.
The next moment, she found herself standing on the abandoned second floor of a ground-floor shop.
Many of the four walls have collapsed, but there are still corners to hide in.
Mu Tiantian stood in the corner, secretly observing the movements outside.
When Lü Wendong arrived in front of the four people, he saw that the tree branch was entangled with Jian Meng, and the corners of his lips that had been raised instantly fell down.
The branch wrapped around Jian Meng's waist suddenly came loose, and she screamed as she fell. Chen Peng caught her.
Lu Wendong was uninterested. "You guys are too weak. I gave you so much time, and you only managed to escape to this point."
After saying that, he slightly raised his hand.
System: [The outer tree wall is moving at an increasing speed; it has now reached a radius of two kilometers.]
Qi Tong had just finished speaking with Mu Tiantian.
She then saw a wall made of tree branches in the distance rapidly shrinking toward Lü Wendong.
Lu Wendong glanced around, as if searching for something.
Chen Peng immediately used his lightning ability to strike the tree wall.
The trees were charred black, but remained resilient.
He Ying also took this opportunity to control the sand on the ground and attack Lü Wendong.
Guo Mo stretched out his hand, and a gun appeared out of thin air in his palm. He quickly aimed it at Lü Wendong's forehead and pulled the trigger.
The bullets, coated with a layer of black powder, produce flames when they fly through the air due to rapid friction.
Lu Wendong reacted quickly, tilting his head slightly, and the bullet passed over him and hit the tree wall behind him.
The wooden wall quickly burst into flames.
Lu Wendong raised his other hand and waved it gently.
A wave surged on the distant river, and in an instant, the river water rushed towards the burning branches, extinguishing the flames.
The branches formed a wall again, with streaks of lightning flashing across them.
Boom—
A deafening rumble of thunder echoed across the sky, and dark clouds gathered.
Lu Wendong laughed, looking at Guo Mo, "It's going to rain soon, I don't think you'll have a chance to escape, level 6, level 6, level 4, level 3..."
He counted the four people's ability levels.
"Your crystal cores should be able to significantly improve my abilities."
Guo Mo and the others were startled when they heard his words.
He can actually use crystal cores to enhance his superpowers!
Is he a zombie or a human?
The four tried to escape, but the tree wall was closing in faster; they really couldn't escape...
Mu Tiantian watched this scene and sighed with emotion.
Mu Tiantian: [As the saying goes, in the apocalypse, the saints are killed first. Jian Meng is really lucky to have survived until now.]
System: [This was almost at the cost of a comrade's life. This might not be a saintly act, it's a foolish one. A saint sacrifices herself to save others; a fool sacrifices others to save themselves and others, without even realizing it.]
Mu Tiantian: [You can even make sarcastic remarks.]
System: [Nonsense, I reckon that's why her luck value dropped.]
As they were speaking, a strong wind suddenly arose.
Tick-tock...tick-tock...
It started raining and the wind picked up.
Mu Tiantian felt a howling wind, and suddenly, rain and leaves swept up by the wind slapped her face.
Is God helping Lü Wendong?
The moment she touched the rain and leaves, a long branch quickly wrapped around her and pulled her in front of Lü Wendong.
Upon seeing this, Lü Wendong's smile widened. "Mu Tiantian, I've been looking for you everywhere."
Guo Mo looked up when he heard the name.
Is it the woman he saw on the road just now? Is she Mu Tiantian?
Lu Wendong took off Mu Tiantian's hat, and her long hair was whipped up by the wind and slapped against his hand.
It felt like being lightly brushed by a feather, slightly itchy.
He smoothed her hair for her, but Mu Tiantian shook her head, not wanting him to touch her.
Ignoring all that, Lü Wendong continued to help her straighten her hair.
Her face became even paler than before, her lips were bloodless, and her pupils began to turn white.
He clicked his tongue twice, "Mu Tiantian, look at you now, this is retribution, isn't it? You made me into this state, and you can't escape it either."
"Retribution?" Mu Tiantian laughed. "You're talking about yourself, aren't you? You scum who betrayed your brothers!"
"Scumbag? You're no better than me. Have you forgotten that you were the one who pushed Feng Lin off the rooftop?"
Mu Tiantian could only hear Lu Wendong's words intermittently, as her hearing was starting to deteriorate.
There are still two hours before she completely turns into a zombie.
