Large numbers of zombies ran to the third floor and fell down with a crackling sound, just like antelopes jumping off a cliff.
It hit the zombies below and the stair railings.
None of them can jump to the fifth floor.
The tall stairwell was soon filled with zombies.
Those zombies were struggling like they were in a deep pit, howling and raising their heads upwards, staring at the living people above.
Zheng Daxing and others looked at the sea of corpses below and retreated at the same time.
Han Qingxia stood at the handrail of the stairs, looking at the vast sea of corpses through the gap in the handrail, frowning, "Lu Qiyan, how long do you have?"
"We have found the data room and are looking for the original files. It will take at most another 20 minutes."
"Hurry up." Han Qingxia urged and said nothing more.
She frowned and stared at the growing pile of zombies below.
"What should we do now?" Li Qianqian asked in horror, "The zombies are coming!"
Zheng Daxing looked down solemnly, "Move all the potatoes from the fifth floor upstairs! Knock down the stairs on the fifth floor too!"
"quick!"
Following his order, everyone in their small base walked down trembling with fear.
The zombies have already attacked the third floor, who knows how long they can hold out!
Hurry up and move the supplies up first!
Zheng Daxing was the first one to walk. The further he walked, the closer he was to the group of zombies.
Layer after layer of zombies, like the goldfish tumbling in the scenic spot’s pond, were moving and jumping below, as if they could jump out of the water and rush in front of them at any time.
With one bite, Wuwu could gnaw off their fragile heads, break open their soft bellies, and dig out their warm, pulsating internal organs.
“Ah——”
“Ah——”
“Ho ho ho ho—”
Zheng Daxing walked down, his heart in his throat. Accompanied by a truly stench and the screams of zombies, he was the first to land.
He followed the wall closely, bypassed the broken part on the fifth floor, and quickly ran into the fifth floor.
Because there is an open-air terrace on the fifth floor with good lighting, they piled up things here and planted them.
There were three neatly arranged rows of potted plants on the terrace. Zheng Daxing picked up the closest and best growing potato and turned to walk upstairs.
His team members followed his footsteps, dodging the zombies as they rushed in to carry the potatoes.
No matter if they are men or women, they will take away as many as they can. There are zombies everywhere below, and who knows when the zombies will rush out.
Hurry up and move as many as you can!
Li Qianqian was at the end of the team. She went down to the fifth-floor staircase platform and saw at a glance a female zombie with her entire face rotten and only a small tuft of scalp and hair on the back of her head.
The female zombie struggled out from the pile of zombies, raised her neck, and stared at her with her gray eyes.
“Ahhh——”
A female zombie jumped out from the sea of zombies. Her smelly mouth was split to the back of her ears. Her unrecognizable face looked like a hairy egg. Only a few facial features could be discerned among the black, yellow, white and red rotting flesh.
“Swoosh—”
The female zombie's skinny zombie hands flashed like metal and grabbed up fiercely.
“Sizzle——”
The sound of fingernails scraping putty could be heard.
The zombie grabbed the staircase near Li Qianqian's feet.
Large flakes of white putty fell down, and a very deep five-finger claw mark appeared on the edge of the stairs.
Li Qianqian stepped back quickly, knocking down Zhang Ruo who was carrying potatoes behind her.
"Li Qianqian!" Zheng Daxing, who had already gone upstairs, looked down.
"It was Zhang Ruo who fell! What does it have to do with me!" Li Qianqian turned her head and said.
"Stop talking nonsense! It was you who hit him!" said Wei Dong who was following behind.
"I saw it too! Zhang Ruo couldn't take anything in the first place, and you bumped into him! I've never seen such an idiot as you!" Wei Xi said.
When Li Qianqian heard what they said, she clenched her fists in anger.
Zhang Ruo, Zhang Ruo, Zhang Ruo, everyone was on Zhang Ruo's side.
No one is on her side!
"Li Qianqian, I'll go back and move it." Zhang Ruo said.
Li Qianqian listened to her words, waved her hand, and strode to the fifth floor.
Han Qingxia, standing on the upper floor, watched the little episode of the people below without saying a word.
There are not many of them, but they have a lot of ideas.
After about ten minutes of moving, most of the vegetables downstairs were moved up, and there were more and more zombies on the stairs.
The distance between the two floors is about six or seven meters, and it is difficult for the zombies to jump up directly, but as the number of zombies gradually increases, the height of the pile also increases.
After the female zombie reached the staircase, more and more zombies jumped up and reached the stairs to the fifth floor.
The fifth-floor staircase made a rustling sound as they were rubbed against it. With every tread of their claws, large pieces of white putty fell down, revealing the gray-black concrete inside.
“Ouch!”
Just as one of the men was carrying the last bowl of potatoes upstairs, a zombie finally broke through countless attempts and grabbed the broken wall of the stairs. The attacking zombie climbed up again.
One claw grabbed the ankle of the man who was walking close to it.
Its sharp claws pierced his hind tendons, and its five fingers grasped tightly, breaking the skin and flesh. The moment it picked at the tendons was like stretching a rubber band on the nerves in the head.
"ah--"
The man let out a terrible cry.
As soon as he shouted, his legs were pulled down heavily.
The potato basin in his hand fell to the ground, and his whole body fell to the abyss below. When he climbed up the stairs, he held on to the railing tightly.
“Li You!”
“Li You!”
When Zheng Daxing and his group saw him being dragged away by the zombies, they all paused.
But soon, they saw more and more zombies pounce on Li You who was hanging in the air.
The zombie that first grabbed his foot howled and bit his calf. The bright red blood stimulated all the zombies below to boil.
A zombie jumped up and bit Li You's left thigh.
A zombie bit his right thigh.
A zombie jumped perfectly, grabbed his ribs with one claw, dug five fingers into his sternum, supported its body with his bones, and held his belly to eat his internal organs in big mouthfuls.
In less than three or four seconds, Li You was covered with zombies.
"Save me—"
"save--"
"ah--"
Li You held on to the railing tightly and asked for help.
Zhang Ruo was the first to rush forward and try to grab him back, but the next second she was pushed away by Zheng Daxing, "Why are you still trying to save him!"
Zheng Daxing took out a small knife from his trouser pocket and stabbed Li You's hand.
"Let go!"
"Let go!"
Blood spurted out wildly, but no matter how Zheng Daxing chopped off Li You's hand, he refused to let go.
Li You, who was surrounded by zombies, held on to the railing tightly, and looked up with a pair of desperate eyes among the zombies.
“Aaaaaa——”
Zhang Ruo screamed, "Don't kill him! Don't kill him!"
"Damn it, he's dead!"
