Chapter 31 Rescue Arrives
After meeting Yun Shuhuai, they not only left the devil's den, but also took revenge with their own hands. Now the mentality of these three girls has improved a lot. They began to plan their future life in the car, and Yun Shuhuai gave them some advice from time to time.
Liang Yi said: "I am from another province. I came here to work after graduating from college. I am afraid I can't go back home now." Fang
Ruxu also said: "I saw my father bite my mother to death..." She sniffed, "I have nowhere to go."
"Then come to my house, my house is not far from here." Lin Yan said, "There is no one in my house, and now it can be a place to stay."
Liang Yi responded immediately, "The village is not bad, there are few zombies, and I can grow vegetables to be self-sufficient."
Fang Ruxu also nodded.
After getting the consent of the other two, she said to Yun Shuhuai, "Sister Yun, can you take us back to the village? It's just a little way to the right on this road."
"Have you decided? I wanted to take you to the city to wait for rescue." Yun Shuhuai said while driving.
"Rescue?!" The three of them said in unison.
"Yes, it's been more than a week. I guess the rescue should be here." She glanced out the window, "Look, isn't that it?"
Following Yun Shuhuai's instructions, they looked far away in the direction of the city. It seemed that several helicopters were hovering over the city.
"It's really rescue!" Lin Yan jumped up excitedly.
"Calm down." Liang Yi held down the excited Lin Yan, but she could hardly control the joy on her face. "Sister Yun, we don't know how to thank you. You saved us and sent us to find help." She started crying again.
Yun Shuhuai looked calm. "It's a piece of cake. I have to go back to the city anyway. I'm only responsible for sending you there. You can figure out what to do next."
"Yeah, yeah!" The three of them nodded repeatedly, looking at Yun Shuhuai's back as if it was glowing.
The car was approaching the city, and there were more zombies on the road. They wanted to get close but were hit by the car and ran over. Seeing Yun Shuhuai's calm and indifferent look, the girls were in awe.
Yun Shuhuai tilted her head slightly again, "Oh, right, Liang Yi, if you want to live better, you have to hurry up and upgrade your superpowers."
When Liang Yi heard her talking about superpowers, he sat up straight instantly, and the other two people also shut up and listened quietly.
Yun Shuhuai took out a crystal core from his shirt pocket, actually from the space, and threw it to the back. Liang Yi caught it in a hurry, "This is a crystal core, which can help superpowers upgrade and replenish energy. It was dug out of the head of a zombie." When she
heard that it could be upgraded, Liang Yi put it in front of her eyes and observed it carefully, but then she heard that it was dug out of the head of a zombie, and she almost threw it away in disgust.
Yun Shuhuai continued, "I think, since psychics can upgrade, zombies may also be able to do so. The road ahead may be even more difficult. If you want to become stronger, you must kill zombies and obtain crystal cores."
Liang Yi held the crystal core tightly with a firm face, "I understand, I will become stronger!"
Suddenly, she felt a warm current flowing from her palm to her body. She opened her hand in surprise and found that the crystal core was gone, leaving only a small handful of white powder.
"Sister Yun! I'm sorry! I accidentally absorbed the crystal core!" Liang Yi apologized quickly. After listening to Yun Shuhuai's words, she understood the importance of the crystal core. This was a trophy from her benefactor. How could she be so reckless?
"It's okay, I'll give it to you. You can try to catch some on your own in the future."
"Thank you..." Liang Yi now felt that the word "thank you" was not enough to express her gratitude.
As they got closer to the city center, there were more and more zombies here, and Yun Shuhuai's speed became faster.
The city gymnasium was on the other side of the city. To get there, they had to go through the city center. Yun Shuhuai had never thought of going around the periphery, as that would be too slow.
The journey also allowed the three girls to see the situation in the city clearly.
The wide road was now filled with scrapped cars on both sides, and there were wandering zombies everywhere. They would follow the cars when they saw them, and fall behind if they couldn't keep up, and then be replaced by the zombies that were closer. The streets were paved with black and red blood, and broken limbs and arms were lying on the streets or hanging on sharp objects... "Boom!" There was an explosion not far away. Looking up, a raging fire was burning in a nearby building. It was unclear whether it was a person or a zombie falling from the window while burning. From the high-rise buildings, thick smoke could be seen not far away. The whole city was almost destroyed.
The three girls held hands. They had been locked up for several days and had no idea that the outside world had become like this in such a short time. They stared at the outside and felt endless despair. However, there are still a few survivors on the chaotic streets. They are walking in teams of two or three with various weapons, killing lone zombies and looking for useful supplies in shops.
Aren't there people who are desperately trying to survive in this desperate situation?
They looked at Yun Shuhuai. They were shocked by her powerful abilities from the moment they saw her. They always regarded her as a savior, completely ignoring that she is also a girl. She looks about the same age as them. Seeing her calm and unhurried appearance, she must have found her own way to survive.
Liang Yi breathed a sigh of relief. Since she was able to escape from the devil's cave, she must have good fortune after surviving a disaster. What's more, she is also a superpower. She will definitely survive with her two sisters!
Having passed through the city center, Yun Shuhuai increased the speed of the car. Fortunately, the car had good shockproof effect. Even if it ran over zombies, it didn't feel very bumpy.
A "rumbling" sound gradually sounded in the distance, and it was getting closer and closer. Looking through the window, they saw several helicopters flying over their heads. They could almost hear the sound of the propellers spinning.
The helicopter flew for a while and then began to broadcast: "We are the rescue team of the Central Military Region. We have established a temporary safety zone in the city gymnasium. Survivors who can hear the broadcast, please go to the city sports center immediately. If there is any inconvenience, please try to go to the rooftop or other high places to light the signal and wait for rescue..."
The broadcast was repeated several times, and several helicopters flew everywhere, spreading hope throughout the city.
They were getting close to the city gymnasium. There weren't many tall buildings here, so the view was wide and spacious. They seemed to hear the rapid sound of... firecrackers coming from not far away?
No, it was gunfire.
The gunfire became louder and louder as they got closer to the gymnasium. When they finally got closer, they found that the gymnasium had been occupied by a group of soldiers in camouflage. There were circles of roadblocks outside. The soldiers were holding guns and were orderly cleaning up the zombies brought in by the survivors.
They were not the only survivors who heard the broadcast. Many people drove or ran over from nearby. They were taken to a tent and were checked one by one before being allowed into the gymnasium.
After they approached, Yun Shuhuai found a place to park the car, and several soldiers came over with guns to clean up the zombies following them.
"We're here, get off the car."
