Chapter 15: The Bystanders Who Attempted to Watch the Show Instead Get Beaten Up



Logically, the apocalypse should have occurred in the morning, and the cafeteria should already be open for business.

There should be quite a few students who have turned into zombies, Zheng Lan wondered.

They had planned to slowly lure the zombies in the cafeteria, kill them one by one, and then go in to find food, but now they couldn't see a single zombie.

"Something's not right here. There isn't a single zombie."

Ning Chuxia, who was also observing from the side, said in a serious tone.

Zheng Lan, who agreed with this, told the others to wait outside the cafeteria and decided to go alone to confirm the situation.

I cautiously approached the third canteen, until I reached a spot where I could see inside.

Zheng Lan saw humanoid skeletons lying on the ground in the canteen, their flesh and blood completely gnawed away!

It's unclear whether the creature was human when it was being eaten, or if it had already turned into a zombie.

There were also many gray-black rats, about the size of house cats, crawling around in the cafeteria.

When Zheng Lan discovered the mutated rat, the rat swarm also spotted her outside the cafeteria and immediately squeaked and charged towards her.

Her pupils contracted, and Zheng Lan turned and rushed towards where everyone was hiding, shouting at the same time:

"Run!!"

......

From the truck's built-in speaker, the background music of Team Rocket's appearance in Pokémon came out.

"A wonderful and brilliant life awaits me!"

Huang Zhao's lips twitched; he'd been led astray.

Turn off the car stereo; we're almost there.

When they were about one kilometer away from Gate 1, Huang Zhao was about to slow down and drive directly into the park.

Suddenly, about 700 meters ahead on the road, a group of zombies were fiercely tearing at a group of gray-black rats the size of house cats!

At this time, Huang Zhao was unaware that these zombies and mutated rats had been lured out of the school by a group of girls who had run away.

The two sides crammed a long stretch of highway, numbering in the thousands, making it impossible for heavy trucks to pass directly.

As the heavy truck approached, Huang Zhao could hear a fierce roar of zombies mixed with the squeaking of mutated rats.

This immediately brought Huang Zhao back to his senses, and he hurriedly stepped on the brakes.

The heavy truck stopped about 300 meters away from where the two sides were fighting.

Huang Zhao cautiously observed the area ahead. If he saw that the horde of corpses or rats had spotted him, he would immediately turn around and run away, returning only when he could charge back.

Fortunately, the distance was relatively far, and neither side in the previous engagement noticed the approaching heavy truck.

To observe more closely, Huang Zhao withdrew his teleported consciousness and returned to his physical body, moving from the back seat to the passenger seat.

He controlled Chen Run to take out a bucket of popcorn, preparing to enjoy a grand spectacle of a battle between corpse rats.

"Tsk tsk, there are far more zombies than rats, but unfortunately they're too slow to catch the rats. Snap!"

Hey, the rats are biting the zombies' heads! Biting their hands and feet won't do any good. Squeak!

It's so nerve-wracking to watch! The greedy mouse is bound to lose if it trades its injuries for its own. *Crunch crunch!*

After finishing a bucket of popcorn, Huang Zhao took out a bag of Lezi potato chips and continued to observe.

Inside the driver's cab, a crisp clicking sound could be heard continuously.

"Huh? The boss has arrived!"

Suddenly, a rat the size of a large dog burst into the horde of zombies and pounced on one of them with incredible speed.

Two long front teeth bit through the zombie's neck, and a fine head was separated from its body.

The rat king, thoroughly enjoying himself, displayed his might among the horde of corpses, causing Huang Zhao to drop the potato chips from his hand.

"What bad luck, it's another mutant. This is the second one already."

However, the level is lower; it should only be level two.

"Aren't mutants supposed to be loners with no sense of reason? How come this one has so many henchmen?!"

"Hopefully the zombies are alright! *crunch*"

I continued eating my potato chips, minding my own business and enjoying the show.

At this moment, the six girls who had taken refuge in the security room at the northwest gate were resting while remaining vigilant against the rats that might break in through the door and windows at any time.

Through the cracks in the window, which was crawling with mutated rats, one could see a swarm of rats outside, under the command of the Rat King, standing in a confrontational posture, looking menacing!

Unfortunately, their opponents were zombies, and the zombie horde couldn't sense the rats' momentum at all.

Without uttering a single wasted word, he charged straight up and started fighting the swarm of rats!

The women in the security room watched as the mutated rats and the horde of zombies clashed in a chaotic battle.

Mutant rats that rammed into doors and gnawed on window security bars also joined the battle.

They can finally breathe a sigh of relief.

"I hope the zombies can drive these rats away; I'd rather face the zombies!"

"Steamed goose heart with a mouse!"

"What will we do to escape after we've fought off the zombies and rats?"

The other four girls were chattering away when Zheng Lan quickly stopped them from making any more noise.

"Everyone, keep quiet and don't attract the zombies' attention."

If the zombies win and don't find us, we can wait for them to leave before escaping.

If the mice win, then they can only rush out together, and their fates will be left to chance!

Zheng Lan calmly addressed the other girls.

Ning Chuxia also offered words of comfort:

"Don't be too pessimistic, everyone. There are so many more zombies than rats, three to one is enough to finish the job."

Besides, the mice will definitely run away if they can't win; they won't fight to the death with the zombies!

Zheng Lan sat down next to her without making a sound, clearly agreeing with what she said.

For a moment, only six barely audible breaths remained in the security room, and it fell silent.

......

Not far from the security guard's room, the Rat King was wreaking havoc among the horde of corpses!

'Tsk tsk, how much technology and grueling work must it have taken to make this rat grow so big!'

While continuing to eat potato chips, Huang Zhao felt a bit thirsty, so he took out a bottle of iced cola and drank it.

But the arrival of the Rat King did not reverse the decline of the rat population.

Just over ten minutes later, only a few dozen slippery rats remained, scurrying among the zombie horde. The rat swarm was reduced to almost nothing!

With a roar from the Rat King, the remaining rats immediately stopped tearing at the zombies.

They turned and fled in the direction of Huang Zhao's heavy truck, following the Rat King!

"Fuck you!"

Huang Zhao, a bystander observing the scene, immediately noticed the situation. He never expected to be caught up in the drama himself!

He tossed aside the potato chips, instantly returned to the back row, and focused his attention on Chen Run.

The truck was still running while watching the show. At that moment, Huang Zhao shifted gears to reverse, stepped on the gas, and completed the maneuver in one smooth motion.

The heavy truck began to slowly reverse.

The more dashing you were while watching the show, the more pathetic you are now as you run away!

What happened to the promise that watching the show wouldn't harm the onlookers?!

Sure enough, those rats are simmering in broth, showing no martial ethics whatsoever!

Huang Zhao cursed under his breath, but his body betrayed him as he sped away.

The Rat King, who was fleeing towards Huang Zhao, also spotted the heavy truck reversing.

Having just suffered a defeat and with ninety percent of his men dead, the Rat King was consumed by rage.

Instead of changing their escape route upon seeing the massive heavy truck ahead, they accelerated and charged towards it!
