Shao Jie, who had been observing the situation, was speechless as he watched the zombies rolling and moving around.
"This, this..." He couldn't speak, pointing at the zombie mountain in the distance.
Everyone looked out the window in the direction he was pointing, speechless.
The mountain of zombies seemed to roll forward on its own, with thick black smoke following along, moving forward little by little.
Everyone noticed the changes on the ground and looked at Xiao Peng.
Xiao Peng looked unwell; his face was covered in fine beads of sweat that were slowly trickling down.
"Alright, that's enough, Xiao Peng," Yu Yanbin interrupted.
He was already exhausted, and then he had to expend a great deal of effort to move these zombies 200 meters away. Even Xiao Peng's strong body was starting to feel the strain.
"It's alright, it'll be done soon." Xiao Peng moved the zombie to the bank 200 meters away before he was satisfied.
The main road outside had been damaged. Xiao Peng had originally planned to repair it, but he was stopped.
There's no rush. We can fix it later when we have the energy. Nobody comes here much anyway, so there's no need to exhaust ourselves.
Xiao Peng stopped using his supernatural abilities, having exhausted all of them, and looked quite dejected.
Li Xiao quickly took out the food. Now it didn't matter whether it was morning or noon, she just took out the food and ate it.
A large pot of bone broth, stir-fried pumpkin, stir-fried yam with sliced meat, braised eggplant, and stir-fried leeks with eggs.
Large bowls were placed on the table, and everyone, who had been starving all night, didn't care about anything else and quickly shoveled rice into their mouths.
After finishing all the food on the table, each person had several bowls of bone broth, and that's when they finally came back to life.
After expending so much energy and strength, nothing beats a bowl of delicious and rich bone broth.
After drinking the soup, it felt like a nutrient had been injected into my limp, boneless body, giving me renewed energy.
Exhausted from a night's work, the group could no longer continue fighting and needed rest.
"Let's rest now and talk about it this afternoon."
I really don't want to move anymore; if I continue fighting, I might get injured.
Because of insufficient energy and lack of proper rest, it is unwise to put up a strong fight.
There was no other way but to stop and rest until I recovered before continuing.
Li Xiao and Shao Jie stayed with everyone; they were exhausted and needed sleep.
Li Xiao gave Shao Jie a gun and told him to keep an eye on the outside. If any zombies tried to climb up, he should just open the gun and take care of them.
Shao Jie, holding the gun, seemed to have improved somewhat, which amused Li Xiao.
It seems that Shao Jie is very enthusiastic about these weapons; he likes the curved sword from before and the wooden gun from now on.
Shao Jie was in charge of keeping watch, while she cleaned up the things in the space and kept an eye on the map in case any high-level zombies came.
They were probably too tired, because they slept until after 1 p.m. before waking up one by one.
Although I had taken a nap, I still felt a bit sore and weak all over.
This is due to extreme fatigue; it looks like you won't get a good night's sleep.
Once everyone was awake, Yu Yanbin began today's meeting.
"This won't work. Everyone's exhausted, and it's not worth it to continue like this. Let's discuss what to do next."
Perhaps the location chosen was unsuitable, and it has brought me a lot of trouble.
"If it really doesn't work, then we'll go somewhere else."
After Yu Yanbin finished speaking, everyone fell into deep thought.
Just as Yu Yanbin said, he is now extremely exhausted.
"We don't have enough people. If we had twice as many, we could take turns working."
Xiao Peng glanced at Shao Jie and said, "Do you need to tell me? Isn't it obvious?"
"There's no other way. We only have so many people, so we have to find a way to accommodate them."
After what happened last night, they all realized that they had been a bit too arrogant.
There are just too many zombies here. They've had it too easy so far that they've forgotten about the influence of environmental factors.
Neither of them spoke up, and they didn't know what the best course of action would be.
You can't sleep here at night; there are so many zombies, it's too dangerous to sleep.
"Then, how about we fight at night and rest during the day?" Zheng Yongnian asked hesitantly.
Everyone has thought of this idea, and there's no better way, so we can only do it this way for now.
They didn't want to give up because of a little setback; they didn't want to give up until the very last moment.
And so, they continued to work in the same two shifts, taking turns to rest.
They didn't go out in the afternoon either, and it wasn't until it was getting dark that everyone mustered their energy and went back inside the courtyard.
Having learned from past mistakes, I'm gradually getting used to killing zombies in the dark.
Although it's dangerous in the dark, there's nothing that can be done about it.
They didn't move to a different place to start over; they could only continue to adapt to this place and continue to focus their energy on fighting the zombies.
It was getting darker and darker, and I could no longer see my surroundings at all.
This is very disadvantageous for them, requiring Yu Yanbin, who is guarding the door, to concentrate highly and not let too many zombies in each time.
"Brother, should we turn on a lamp?" Actually, Li Xiao had wanted to turn on a lamp last night, so that there would be some light and she wouldn't be completely blind and unable to see anything around her.
But if the lights are turned on, the zombies will swarm towards this place, and I'm afraid we won't be able to hold them off when they arrive in droves.
Cheng Shaolin thought for a moment and said, "Let's light one. Anyway, they'll still come this way even if we don't light it. It doesn't need to be too bright, just bright enough to see clearly."
