Climbing five floors in one go without stopping seems easy, but it's actually quite difficult. It requires precise control of time, accurate judgment of the patrolling zombie squad, and the ability to plan the route.
Chunli was completely bewildered the whole way. At first, she tried to keep up with Chi Xia and Han Junche's train of thought, but she gave up completely when she reached the second level.
Chi Xia and Han Junche accurately judged the distance, time, and route, while she was just a follower who relied on them.
After reaching the fifth floor, the distance between the zombie squads was less than 50 meters.
More importantly, the building is U-shaped inside, with zombie patrols on both sides, and the distance between the two sides is less than 30 meters.
In other words, they not only need to watch out for the zombies in front and behind them, but also need to constantly pay attention to the distance from the zombies on the other side.
Han Junche made a quick decision: "Let's take the stairs."
The entrance to the stairwell was swarming with zombies, almost completely filling the passageway.
As soon as the three of them reached the stairwell, the zombies immediately became agitated. Han Junche reacted quickly, casting a special ability at them, and the group of zombies instantly fell silent and collapsed.
Chunli wiped the sweat from her brow: "Being with you guys is so exciting. If it were me, I would have died eight hundred times over."
Han Junche didn't reply. He walked ahead, kicking the zombies to the sides as he went, clearing a path.
Chunli followed behind Chi Xia and walked forward. Looking at Han Junche leading the way, she suddenly leaned close to Chi Xia's ear and whispered, "Sister Chi, forget what I said before. I think your husband is really nice. Let's not even think about that foreign guy."
Upon hearing this, Chi Xia hurriedly looked at Han Junche in front of her. When she saw him pause, her heart clenched.
She turned to look at Chunli and secretly gritted her teeth.
No, once we get out, she has to give Chunli a good beating. Otherwise, she'll feel bad for Chunli's repeated "care" for her, and she won't be able to vent her anger.
There were no more zombies inside the stairwell; they must have been concentrated at the stairwell entrance.
When they were almost on the sixth floor, Han Junche, who was in front, suddenly stopped and turned to Chi Xia, saying, "The passage and stairwell doors are open. If we just go up like this, it will definitely cause a disturbance among the zombies."
Chunli tensed up upon hearing this: "What should we do? We're not even on the 6th floor yet, and we're still a long way from the 10th floor. These zombies have their own alarm system. If we cause a disturbance, it will attract the attention of other patrolling zombies. Before long, all the zombies in the building will know."
Han Junche did not reply to her; he simply looked at Chi Xia quietly.
Chi Xia instantly understood what he meant, but she was still a little reluctant and looked at Han Junche pitifully: "Is there no other way?"
Han Junche looked at her but did not answer.
Chi Xia understood. She sighed, took Mengmeng out of her backpack, patted its little head, and said, "Mengmeng, Mommy needs you to go upstairs invisibly and release a little of your aura to lure the zombies in the passageway to the stairwell. Can you do that?"
Mengmeng tilted her little head, looked at her with her round eyes, understood what she was saying, and then nodded seriously.
Chi Xia sighed reluctantly and gently patted its little head: "Go."
With that command, Mengmeng vanished from her spot in an instant.
Seeing Chi Xia's worried expression, Han Junche slowly said, "You shouldn't just treat Mengmeng as a pet. Its abilities are more than enough to qualify it as your comrade-in-arms and help you solve many problems. It's still small now. In a few months, when it grows up, do you really want to carry it, which weighs dozens of kilograms, on missions?"
