On the way to City C.
Shen Jing also discarded her wound-up alarm clocks along the way.
As soon as the alarm rings, the zombies surrounding the safe zone will break through the darkness and follow the vehicle away.
Wherever the off-road vehicle went, mountains and seas of corpses followed.
They sprinted out of the safe zone, nearly having their car overturned by a horde of zombies. They barely managed to get onto the highway in City C before slowly breaking free from the zombies' encirclement. The scene along the way was a mess, littered with severed heads and limbs that Shen Jing had cut off with metal.
Meanwhile, the laboratory was under attack by zombies.
Through the night vision goggles, you can see zombies attracted by the alarm clock, baring their teeth and roaring at the reserved car.
"Ho ho!"
"Woof woof woof!" I can eat two of them by myself!
Seeing Vasily confronting the zombies outside the window, Shen Jing didn't know what to say.
Most of the zombies in the safe zone were drawn out by their commotion.
But this is only a temporary situation.
After all, vehicles are faster than zombies, and once the alarm stops ringing, the zombies will first go to places with more people. They'll either wander back to the safe zone or wander off to the western base.
Anyway, these zombies that were driven to the safe zone by the western base might eventually end up back at the western base.
If people in the safe zone don't take the opportunity to leave, then they're just waiting to die!
The car windows were covered in blood and traces of brain matter, and even the windshield wipers couldn't help.
It was Gu Yan who was driving the car.
Otherwise, without a clear view, we would definitely end up driving into a ravine.
Without thinking twice, Shen Jing immediately took out a gun from her spatial storage and started firing in front of her.
The clearer the path ahead, the faster you can get rid of the horde of corpses behind you.
Even Gu Yan was driving with one hand, just like Shen Jing, he also placed the gun on the edge of the window and aimed it at the zombies that wanted to rush onto the front of the car.
Since awakening his psychic abilities, Gu Yan has been almost always on target.
The only unexpected thing is that when you're steering, you occasionally veer off course.
Because the two cooperated well, there weren't many obstacles on the road ahead.
You can't outlast zombies with sheer physical strength; the most important thing is to keep the vehicle's fuel tank full. Furthermore, neither of them lingered in combat, unlike Vasily, who would engage in friendly firefights with the zombies outside.
They drove the vehicle at top speed, ran over the body, and continued on their way.
This way, we can reach City C faster and avoid wasting bullets.
It's simply impossible to clear out all the zombies with just two people.
Being a lone hero isn't easy.
Gu Yan had no interest.
Shen Jing is lazy, and she is more realistic than anyone else.
Even in the world of games, there's a limit to how many zombies you can kill, let alone in real-life close-quarters combat!
The car may have run over the body again, as the whole vehicle shook.
Shen Jing almost bit her tongue when she retrieved the wooden gun.
She licked her salty, fishy lips, realizing she had indeed bitten them until they bled. Then she looked back at the dark road, where her night vision goggles showed a surging mass of heads. "Zombies don't get tired. They're still recklessly following us after we got on the highway."
"The zombies are too dead to play anymore." Gu Yan actually told a lame joke.
Shen Jing turned her head to look and noticed that his lips were even paler than before.
It's estimated that it was caused by using mental abilities to explore the way.
"Would you like more spiritual spring water?" Shen Jing handed over the straw cup.
"No need..." he said, glancing at her and noticing the cut on her lip. "How did you get hurt?"
"It was an accident just now."
It wasn't a big deal; Shen Jing just took out a wet wipe and wiped it off.
She pushed the straw cup forward, "Drink it quickly."
Gu Yan lowered his eyes to look at the cup that was handed to him. Even with his night vision goggles, he could see that Shen Jing's fingertips were also injured. He lowered his head, biting the straw, and drank the spiritual spring water from the cup. In reality, its effect was very limited, far less than the crystal core energy in the game.
Shen Jing was originally watching Gu Yan obediently drink the spiritual spring water
But as she looked at it, she remembered the lame joke from earlier and couldn't help but laugh out loud.
It's rare to see Gu Yan tell a corny joke.
I'm used to his sarcastic and unpredictable manner; this is the first time I've seen him like this.
Especially now that he's staring at the 19-year-old's appearance, he actually finds her kind of cute.
Gu Yan glanced at her coolly, as if he could see right through her thoughts, and pushed the straw cup away. "We'll be there in ten minutes. Gu Chen is also heading in this direction. We have to get ahead of him."
Steal his house, rob his monster.
It seems that doing this kind of thing actually makes Gu Yan feel subtly better.
Shen Jing chuckled softly, "Yes, let's hurry up and end this eternal darkness."
They were wiped out during the extreme heat when they were trying to pass through the checkpoint.
I've actually survived the extreme heat and the eternal night in real life...
"The sweet potato flowers haven't bloomed yet." Gu Yan exclaimed "Ah," seemingly still carrying a hint of regret about ending the eternal night.
"No, after the Eternal Night ends, we can find another place to plant." Shen Jing was already feeling impatient with the endless darkness; there wasn't a ray of light no matter where she looked. "Speaking of which, after the Eternal Night ends..."
"What were you planning to do?" Gu Yan's lips curled into a mocking smile.
Shen Jing's face stiffened, and she awkwardly turned her head to look out the window.
She tapped the glass with her fingertips, making a "tap-tap" sound.
After a moment's hesitation, he brought it up: "In the game, it should be an earthquake instance, but..."
In reality, it's uncertain.
Moreover, earthquakes also require "underground capsules".
Otherwise, the survivors of the base would probably have nowhere to go among the ruins, and they would also have to worry about those crazed zombies.
Gu Yan snorted coldly, "Then the earthquake will follow."
"...If ending the Eternal Night triggers an earthquake..." Shen Jing was even more uncertain now. She already felt uneasy about the merging of the game and reality. Now she had to face this choice. What should she do?
"You're overthinking it. Even if you weren't the one with the light orbs, Gu Chen would still have them made public."
Moreover, based on his understanding of Gu Chen...
Gu Chen will likely use the three orbs of light to negotiate terms with global officials.
At that point, many things will spiral out of control and collapse.
After all, Gu Chen would love for the world to descend into apocalypse, so he could pursue his ideals amidst the chaos. He could also use official channels to locate Gu Yan and continue his clandestine experiments.
No one was happier than him at the appearance of zombies.
He might even think that zombies aren't perfect, and he wants to create even more perfect zombies!
Shen Jing also thought of the two light orbs that Gu Chen was raising.
Judging from He Qing's attitude alone, Shen Jing felt that it was only a matter of time before Gu Chen started to deceive the authorities.
We should prepare more and take the initiative into our own hands.
Although she wanted to slack off, the path ahead wasn't something she could control. Shen Jing had a feeling that those missions would push her into this position, and sooner or later she would also receive the mission to find the orb of light.
With that thought in mind, she decided to stop dwelling on it.
You can't just stop eating because you know you'll die eventually.
