The next day they continued to set traps. This time all the helicopters in the base were dispatched together. Each helicopter was escorted by a very powerful long-range psychic. In the end, they all arrived safely at the place where they were yesterday.
Lin Tantan and his men continued digging. A group of people found a suitable place and angle on the mountains on both sides and buried oil tank launchers. They could remotely control the launch of small oil tanks. When the oil tanks hit the ground, they would explode, and the oil inside would splatter and burn. With enough oil tanks, they could create a large enough sea of fire.
This time, more Earth Elements came to help, and they dug the tunnels before dark. There are tunnels dug under the road with a total length of about eight kilometers. If the tunnels and the oil tank fire can be used, this section of road will be left with about 300,000 zombies, or even more.
Coming out of the highway are fields, which are wide. In order to keep as many zombies as possible, they brought many vehicles as roadblocks. Planting-type wood-type mutants transplanted trees and bushes, dividing the fields into strips and surrounding them.
Lin Tantan's digging team dug various pits in the fields. They didn't dig big pits, but small and deep pits of more than ten square meters. They dug one after another, densely distributed in the fields, very close to each other. After digging, they covered them with a layer of soil again. It looked no different from the normal land around it, but once the zombies came in, they would fall into the pits like dumplings.
After two days of hard work, the zombie tide finally arrived.
From the not very clear satellite map, the tide of zombies looked like a long, thick black line, winding its way. They bypassed the river, entered the mountains, and moved along the road. Finally, on June 4th, they came into people's sight.
It was just after three in the afternoon, the sunlight was still very strong, and the tide of zombies was not moving very fast. Before I saw the zombies, I could smell the nauseating stench brought by the wind.
Lin Tantan was waiting quietly at this end of the field. The plan later would still require the help of the Earth Element, so she requested repeatedly and was finally allowed to stay on the scene, and naturally Ye Xiao was by her side.
Through the feedback from satellite maps and their own remote observation, they could see the tide of zombies moving through the mountains, slowly walking to where the cave began, and then slowly walking back.
Everyone held back and did not move.
The tide of corpses was like a big black and gray insect, slowly crawling over, and its tail could not be seen. When the front of them finally walked through the eight kilometers and came out of the mountain road, Lin Tantan finally saw their appearance through a telescope from a distance of several thousand meters.
The zombies walking in the front were obviously very ordinary. They only vaguely retained their human form, their bodies were rotten and mutilated, their heads were drooping, their arms were twisted, their steps were stiff, like skeletons whose flesh was about to rot away, they were covered in tattered clothes that could not recognize their original appearance, and they were moving forward crookedly.
They first had to pass through a dirt road and wasteland, which was a safe area with no traps. The team of zombies, which started out as a row of about a dozen or twenty, became wider and wider, and the group of zombies gradually dispersed. However, because there were barriers on both sides that looked messy and natural, but were actually artificially placed vehicles, transplanted bushes, and moved rocks, they did not completely disperse, and most of them still walked within the range they should go.
And because they encountered obstacles from time to time, the zombie group's forward speed was slowed down, and the zombies behind slowly caught up. The zombie team looked more and more sturdy, larger and longer, but their tail still had not finished walking on the road surrounded by mountains.
Just what you see before your eyes is hundreds of thousands in number, which is shocking at first glance.
In this way, the group of zombies were gradually led onto the fields. Finally, the front row of them stepped on the land covered with small pits, but still nothing happened, because on the slope at the edge of the field, Lin Tantan and several earth-type mutants were putting their palms on the ground, using their supernatural powers to prop up the pits so that they would not be crushed by the zombies.
This was a very difficult task. Although everyone was divided into groups and each was responsible for a small part of the pit, they couldn't hold on for long. Ye Xiao took his walkie-talkie and said softly, calmly and firmly: "Bait on."
Immediately afterwards, several people appeared on the slope on their side, as if they had accidentally discovered the dark group of corpses in the field below. They shouted a few times and ran away quickly.
The sounds and human smell stimulated the horde of corpses. They changed their slow pace as if wilted by the sun, became excited, and rushed towards the slope with hoarse cries.
If you look down from above, you can see all kinds of obstacles in the field that seem to be placed naturally. They form a pear-shaped area, or like a pocket, and the zombies are like ants that enter the pocket by themselves. They are now blocking the mouth of the pocket, and then rushing into the bag excitedly and quickly.
The ones in front rushed in, and the ones behind followed. The bag was quickly filled up. Time passed by minute by minute, one minute, two minutes... The earth elements kept persisting, while Ye Xiao was looking at the screen.
The bag was not full yet, but the zombies in the front were about to climb up the slope, and on the road behind, after an eight-kilometer section, there was still a long line of zombies.
But there was no time to delay any further. Ye Xiao said in a deep voice, "Release!"
All earth-type energy sources stopped outputting energy at the same time. In the fields, all the pits stepped on by the zombies collapsed instantly. All the zombies on them, whether they were one or two, or dozens or hundreds of them crowded together, fell down.
The bottom of the pit, more than three meters deep, is filled with extremely sharp thorns made of various materials. They pierce the legs, body, and even the head. They have no sense of pain and can continue to struggle as long as the nerve center is not injured. However, because they are pierced, they can only be trapped and cannot break free.
There were also many zombies that were not pierced. They wanted to climb up, but the steep earth pit that was more than three meters deep was not so easy to climb. However, some zombies were particularly agile and climbed up quickly like monkeys, or even flew up.
They successfully came to the ground, and there were many zombies on the ground that were not standing on the pit at the time, but on the normal ground. Some of them continued to run forward stupidly and fell into the pit, while many of them had developed low-level intelligence and avoided the pit and continued to move forward.
Even the advanced zombies hiding among the ordinary zombies began to roar miserably, as if they were delivering some orders, leading the zombies to avoid the small pits, but there were so many pits so densely packed that they had to go around them and could not increase their speed.
At this moment, several cars drove out on the slope where the humans were. The cars were very strange. They were obviously temporarily modified. There were huge, crude machines like catapults on them, and oil barrels were placed on them. The next moment, all the oil barrels were thrown out.
Some of them were thrown extremely far, while others were very close. They suddenly exploded while still in the air, and the oil inside poured down on the zombies like rain. After several barrels of oil were thrown, countless fireballs fell into the zombies, ignited the oil, and bursts of bright and dazzling flames shot up.
Ye Xiao was standing on the slope. He had just used the wind blade to break and explode the oil barrels, and then immediately sent out a strong wind to help the flames spread everywhere, and soon covered the entire field.
The zombies that fell to the bottom of the pit were burned and could not climb out, while the zombies that did not enter the pit were burned even more severely. They were not afraid of the flames and continued to run fearlessly, like firemen, bringing the flames to more places, and more zombies, hay, bushes, and trees on the ground were ignited.
Or some zombies would become stiff as they burned, and they would roll to the bottom of the pit, burning the unburned zombies in the pit as well.
The entire field was suddenly engulfed in flames.
The high-level zombie who played a leadership role was no longer useful and was also burned.
Naturally, there were quite a few zombies behind that did not enter the sea of fire. They became agitated, stopped advancing, and began to retreat amid the roars of the advanced zombies.
People here watched through telescopes and couldn't help feeling a chill in their hearts. This group of corpses actually appeared to be in a state of order.
At this time, Ye Xiao picked up something like a remote control and pressed a red button on it.
In the distance, in the mountains, on the eight-kilometer road, zombies were moving forward numbly, and the commotion ahead had not yet reached here.
Suddenly, in the quiet mountains, BANG! BANG! BANG! The ground exploded one after another, shattering the concrete road and sending chunks of concrete flying into the sky. Zombies were either blown away or fell into the giant holes beneath the road, pierced by the sharp spikes below, or flattened by the falling chunks of concrete.
The zombies that were not above the pit were still at a loss. At this time, small black objects were thrown down at them from the mountains on both sides. They exploded, and liquid mixed with flames poured over the zombies. Soon, the eight-kilometer-long road was engulfed in a sea of fire.
The group of zombies in front that were about to retreat could no longer do so. If they did, they would all be burned to charcoal. There were still some zombies behind the road, so they could not move forward either.
In an instant, the entire long line of zombies was divided into four parts. The first and third parts were engulfed in a sea of fire, while the second and fourth parts were separated by the sea of fire.
On the mountain, a zombie watched all this grimly. It was so emaciated that it looked like a skeleton wrapped in skin, and its clothes were tattered. However, its overall decay was far less severe than that of ordinary zombies. Its skin was even intact, and its body was pale gray, not the rotting color of other zombies, stained with black blood, making it look dirty and ugly.
The zombie's pale eyes looked at the two distant seas of fire below, then looked at the team separated by the two seas of fire, and suddenly raised his head and screamed.
Its howl could only be considered an ordinary howl, but it had great penetrating power. After hearing the howl, the two groups of zombies that had not been engulfed by the sea of fire slowly calmed down from their chaotic state, and several slightly more advanced zombies in the group, whose degree of decay was less than that of ordinary zombies, began to scream together.
This scream is no longer ordinary. If you have a sound wave display instrument, you can find that with the screams of each zombie, sound waves are emitted one after another. They merge into a larger and more powerful sound wave, spreading in all directions.
Wherever they passed, the wind stagnated and the fire stopped, as if attacked by a powerful force. Within seconds, the sound waves reached everyone on the slope. For an instant, people felt as if they had heard the sharpest sound in the world. Their heads shook, their chests felt stuffy, and their blood surged. Some of them who could not bear it sat down directly.
Lin Tantan was equally distressed. She was shocked. A sonic attack?! How many zombies were sending out a sonic attack together? Could there be dozens of them?
Although this group of zombies is huge, don't forget that the zombies' superpowers are divided into ten categories just like humans, and sonic attacks are just a small category in the system. Anyway, so far, she has not found a person around her who has the superpower of sonic attacks.
Based on this inference, wouldn’t there be thousands of zombies with special abilities in this corpse group?
When Lin Tantan was shocked, the zombies on the mountain howled again, and then several zombies ran out from the group of corpses, bypassing the sea of fire in the field at an extremely fast speed and running towards the slope.
Ye Xiao was the first to come back to his senses from the sonic attack. He was not very clear that it was a sonic attack, but at least he knew that this method of attack was related to the sound made by the opponent, and the propagation of sound requires a medium. He raised his hand, and a large area of air in front of him suddenly condensed to form an invisible and solid barrier, and the transmission of sonic waves was instantly stopped.
People's various uncomfortable reactions finally disappeared, but they still couldn't recover.
Then I saw dozens of zombies breaking away from the team and rushing towards me like arrows.
Lin Tan recognized that this should be a wind-type zombie, otherwise it wouldn't be so fast. Ye Xiao also recognized it and immediately said, "As planned, retreat!"
Even without this wave of zombies' counterattack, they would have almost retreated, but now their retreat was a bit embarrassing.
There were several earth-type people and several fire-type people, only about a dozen people in total. They got in the car and left after hearing the order.
Ye Xiao didn't leave. He looked at the zombies that quickly flew towards him, stretched out his hands, and gently placed them in the air. Lin Tan instinctively wondered what move he was going to make. Was it his tornado? Or was it going to blow these zombies away and into the sea of fire?
But with their speed, they should be able to run out immediately after entering the sea of fire. If their speed is fast enough, the flames on their bodies will not burn faster as they run, but will most likely be extinguished.
Plus, zombies have less fat on their bodies, so without fuel, they're not very easy to burn...
But if you just release the wind blade, the zombies are so fast that the hit rate probably won't be very high.
She is always ready to help.
At this moment, Ye Xiao's ten fingers suddenly tightened.
Lin Tantan faintly heard a sound, like the wind suddenly tightening. And in the air, invisible to her, ahead of the oncoming zombies, strands of air suddenly tightened, transforming into transparent ropes, both horizontal and vertical, forming a vast net.
Then when the zombies entered this range, the net suddenly closed in.
In Lin Tantan's eyes, the zombies were about to rush in front of him, but suddenly they stopped moving, and then they were forced together as if they were strangled by something and were squeezed hard.
Almost in an instant, their hands and ribs were broken, and their bodies seemed to be squeezed together. Although their heads were not crushed, their rotten faces were flattened. Then the brain tissue in the cranial cavity was squeezed into a paste and flowed down, leaving behind also the crystal cores that were shining with green light.
It turned out to be a wind-type zombie.
But Lin Tantan couldn't think of anything about wind or no wind at the moment. She was stunned, with only four words in her mind: wind net strangulation!
Isn't this Ye Xiao's ultimate move from the late apocalypse? Can he already use it now? Although its scale and power can't be compared to those recorded in history books, but, but this is definitely a wind net stranglehold!
She was extremely shocked, but seeing Ye Xiao suddenly become weak after using this move, she hurried to support him.
Looking down, dozens of zombies, as fierce as if equipped with motors, were gathered together, you stuck to me and I stuck to you, so tightly that our limbs were twisted, as if they were an inseparable whole, or as if they were garbage blocks compressed into blocks by a machine, motionless, and each one was... dead.
Ye Xiao leaned on Lin Tantan, breathing rapidly. Most of his supernatural powers were suddenly drained away, and he was unable to move for a while. After all, his body had not fully recovered yet.
The group of zombies in front did not move for the time being. The zombie that was hiding somewhere and could only make shrill sounds seemed to be silent for a moment. Then, an even more shrill shriek that seemed to contain infinite anger came out again.
The zombies started to stir, and then began to move in large groups around the sea of fire and towards the people on the slope. They were also moving very fast, like a black and gray wave approaching quickly, but they were still much slower than those dozens of wind-type zombies.
Ye Xiao's eyes darkened slightly, and he waited for a while before saying, "Let's go!"
"Oh." Lin Tan Tan picked up Ye Xiao without thinking and ran towards the vehicle next to him. The driver who was waiting for them and a thunder-type mutant in the passenger seat were staring at the scene with their mouths wide open.
Ye Xiao also: "..." He couldn't react to what was happening.
Then he was thrown into the car, and Lin Tantan quickly got in as well: "Let's go!"
The driver closed his mouth, started the car, and sped away.
According to the plan, they want to lure the zombies into the city. Based on the current hatred level of the zombies towards them, this should be a relatively sure thing. The only problem is that they cannot be caught up by them.
The car was speeding. Ye Xiao silently climbed up from the back seat and sat down. Lin Tantan also sat down, his face flushed, which was due to the excitement of this life-and-death speed.
No matter how many times this happens, it still feels exciting.
Her voice tense as she asked, "Which way do we go?"
For the past two and a half days, they'd been digging pits and laying traps outside, while even more people were setting traps in the city. The winding roads and paths were likely dotted with pits and numerous bombs and other objects. If one couldn't figure out their locations, they could easily become the unlucky person who got caught before the zombies could verify the traps were up to snuff.
Ye Xiao picked up the navigation device in the car, which displayed a real-time map of the entire Ning city. The red dots represented traps such as bombs, and the red crosses represented pits. Safe roads would be marked with a green background.
Some roads will have a green background next to the red dot and red cross, which means that there is still space for passing next to the trap. The green solid line means that cars can pass through, and the green dotted line means that only people can pass through.
In order to build such a navigation system, Lu Jianping, as the leader of the base, used his prestige and some rewards to mobilize a large number of people in the base. Most of these people were highly educated and could use computers and read electronic maps.
The people who set the traps outside will pass the information back in time, and the people gathered in the base will be responsible for marking the feedback information on the computer map and entering it into the system in time.
Every entry of information and icon will be reviewed by someone. Once an error is found, the person who entered the information will be held accountable and the consequences will be very serious, so everyone is cautious and strives to avoid mistakes.
So this navigation system is still very reliable.
At the same time, there are countless yellow dots on the map. They are the people who are setting up ambushes. Each person setting up an ambush will wear a communication watch with a powerful positioning system. This watch is the ready-made technology and sample contributed by the Zhengyang Brigade. Lu Jianping mobilized people to rush to make it.
In addition to the traps in the city, various roadblocks and traps are also being built on the construction site outside the base wall, including a deep moat being dug under the city wall.
It can be said that in order to fight against this zombie tide, most of the Ning City base has been mobilized. Although it cannot be said that the entire base has been mobilized, it is not far away.
Having said that, by now, most of the traps in the city have been set up, and the roads that were originally designed to be left empty for vehicles will never be moved. Several green and thick passages pointing from all corners of the city to the Ning City base appear particularly eye-catching on the screen.
But Ye Xiao didn't want to take these roads directly back to the base. He wanted to lead the horde of zombies to the largest trap.
He quickly pointed out the passage to be taken, and the driver immediately drove towards the designated road.
Ye Xiao took out the crystal core to absorb the energy and glanced behind the car: "The zombies are moving a bit slowly, slow down."
The driver glanced at the rearview mirror, swallowed, and obediently slowed down the car.
In this way, at first glance, the car in front seems to be running for its life, but in fact, the car and the group of zombies always maintain a distance that is neither far nor close.
Some zombies with slightly faster speed broke out of the group and were about to catch the car. The man who had been sitting in the passenger seat and had been conserving his strength until now suddenly opened his eyes, leaned out from the roof of the car, raised his hand, and a blue-purple lightning bolt as thick as two fingers struck the head of the zombie in front.
With one move, the zombie's entire head was charred black and fell from its neck like a crispy biscuit. Its body ran forward a few steps due to inertia before falling down.
Lin Tan Tan looked out the window and thought that the thunder element was just so domineering.
Then, this thunder-type mutant continued to release his superpowers, knocking down the zombies that had escaped from the zombie group one by one, killing each one with one move.
There were also zombies screaming in strange ways, and suddenly a fireball was released, hitting the car. Fortunately, the distance was far enough and it didn't hit the car. The driver was so scared that he stepped on the accelerator harder.
The car crossed the road, crossed the highway, passed under the overpass, and plunged into the city road. After entering the city, there were too many obstacles, and the speed of the zombies and the car slowed down at the same time.
The zombies seemed to be a little slack and were not chasing so closely. The thunder-type mutant then took out a big blood bag and punctured it. The blood inside continued to flow to the ground as the car moved. The smell of blood once again stimulated the zombies and they chased even more closely.
When they came to a fork in the road, there was a car parked on the left side of the road. Seeing the horde of zombies passing by, the people in the car launched a long-range attack on the zombies and took out blood bags and punctured them. The zombies were both angry and tempted by the blood. A small group of zombies came out of the large group and pounced on the car.
The people next to the car immediately got in, turned the wheels, grabbed the ground hard, and led this small group of zombies away.
At the next fork in the road, the same thing happened again.
The swarm of zombies was constantly divided up like this, with the number of zombies divided up at a time ranging from a few hundred to thousands, tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands. These small groups of zombies would be led to traps and eliminated one by one.
After driving for more than ten minutes, Ye Xiao absorbed two crystal cores and replenished his energy. While looking at the navigation screen, he picked up the communicator and dialed a number: "N028, the zombie horde is about to arrive, are you ready?"
The other side immediately replied: "Ready."
Ye Xiao said: "Ten minutes left."
N028 is a place rather than a person. There is an abandoned industrial park here, which has long been abandoned by Ning City.
At this time, some people were hiding at a distance from the abandoned industrial park. They were nervously waiting for time to pass. Ten minutes was not a long time, but it was short enough to make people anxious.
Finally, the sound of a car approached, and a black SUV appeared in sight. Then, behind it, zombies appeared one after another, and the number was astonishingly large.
The car drove closer and closer, and crashed into the gate of the industrial park, and the group of zombies behind it followed in.
The car turned around in the industrial park, and the group of zombies behind it followed it around.
After turning all the roads, the car was ready to leave from the back door of the industrial park. However, a wave of zombies had already taken a shortcut here, blocked the door, and pounced on it ferociously.
There were hundreds of zombies, and they looked like a black mass. Lin Tan was a little nervous, but also understood a little. These zombies were not so easy to fool, and they all knew to block them here.
Then she moved. She and Ye Xiao moved together.
She leaned out of the right window, Ye Xiao leaned out of the left window, Ye Xiao released a whirlwind, blowing the zombies on the left blocking the exit into the sky, Lin Tan Tan released a big fireball to blow away the ones on the right, and the next moment, the car rushed out of the industrial park exit, driving wildly, and the zombies followed behind, and at the same time, there were explosions one after another from behind.
The sound was so loud and earth-shaking. Looking back, I saw zombies being blown into the sky. Dilapidated buildings and factories collapsed, burying the zombies and causing smoke and dust to rise everywhere.
Ye Xiao and the thunder-type mutant worked together to clear out all the zombies that followed them. The car slowed down slowly, and when they looked back, the industrial park had become a ruin.
The zombies that had not yet entered the industrial park seemed to be stunned by the explosion and began to retreat along the same route. Although they still maintained their general formation, they were no longer as neat as before. Many zombies simply scattered on the spot and wandered away on their own.
Ye Xiao retracted his gaze: "Let's go, continue."
Next, they acted as bait again, leading a wave of zombies to another trap and destroying them.
There are many people like them, such as those who had diverted the zombies at each fork in the road. They drove to the station, and after the zombies entered the station, they blew off the roof of the waiting room and buried the zombies.
Or lead the zombies to a street with a pit dug in it.
Or they would take the zombies to an old residential area with winding alleys, and some people would ambush there by taking advantage of the terrain.
Or on a narrow street, as the zombies chase each other, a large net falls from above their heads, or a thick nail plate made of steel bars, or a huge stone tied with a long chain is swung and can smash the zombies into meat paste.
There are also snipers who mount machine guns on buildings with wide views and good locations, specializing in killing lone zombies in groups of three or two.
There are also bomb teams that carry homemade ammunition in space and throw one at the zombies as soon as they see the target.
There is also a powerful lone ranger who walks alone in the desolate streets, waiting to slaughter zombies.
Some are from al-Qaeda, and there are also many private teams, ranging from dozens of people to a single person. From this day on, many people have used their own methods to consume the vitality of this tide of zombies that came from afar.
The sun gradually sets and another night falls. Night is the home turf of zombies, so people moving around in the city should either immediately move away from the urban area invaded by the zombie tide, or contact each other, gather together, and find a suitable place to spend the night together.
Lin Tan and Ye Xiao and the others moved away from the battlefield, then gathered the others and found a place to spend the night together.
This place and the Ning City base are almost at the two ends of the city, and the distance between them is very far. When they brought the zombies into the city, it was almost five o'clock. There was no time to call a helicopter to pick them up, so spending the night there was the best option.
This was also the reason why Ye Xiao was unwilling to let Lin Tan come along at first.
They gathered more than a hundred people from the surrounding area and chose a teaching building of a middle school as their overnight place. People occupied several classrooms, trying to stay together, and took advantage of the last bit of time before dark to have their dinner.
Lin Tan Tan was counting something on his fingers. Ye Xiao asked what she was counting. Lin Tan Tan said, "I'm counting how many zombies we killed today and how many are left."
Ye Xiao smiled and said, "Can you figure it out?"
Of course I can’t figure it out, Lin Tantan said, “Just tell me directly.”
Ye Xiao didn't keep anyone in suspense: "On the highway, about 300,000 zombies were eliminated. About 100,000 were burned to death in the fields. About 120,000 zombies were lured away before and after entering the city. Now they have almost all been eliminated. There are 20,000 zombies in the industrial park, and the last trap just now killed nearly 30,000..."
All in all, as far as they know, the larger numbers have totaled about 570,000 zombies that have been eliminated.
This is a huge number, but the problem is that this zombie tide is even larger than Bai Cheng originally estimated, and the number of zombies should be over two million.
So only a quarter of them have been eliminated so far.
I don't know if it's a good thing or not, because the zombie team is longer than expected. A group of zombies were left behind the burning highway. Because the highway was engulfed in flames, they couldn't keep up and had to cross the mountain. There are probably 300,000 to 400,000 zombies there, so there are still more than one million zombies active in the city.
This does not include the zombies that already exist in Ning City.
Ye Xiao leaned against the wall, tapping his knees lightly with his fingers. "The most crucial thing is the leading zombie. Even if we can't see it, a single roar can make the zombies obey. Without it, more than a million zombies will be a mess. With it, it's hard to say whether the existing zombies in Ning City will not be under its command."
Lin Tantan was munching on a piece of toast made by the chef, and couldn't help but think of the pale and skinny zombie he had seen on the other side of the river.
She had heard the howling sound last time, and she had heard it just now, but she couldn't quite tell if the two howls were coming from the same zombie. After thinking for a moment, she said, "A leader must either be of a very high level, possessing wisdom that naturally allows lower-level zombies to submit, or be stronger than all the other zombies. I wonder what this leader is like."
The former is not so difficult, but the latter is a bit tricky.
She told Ye Xiao the characteristics of the zombie she saw by the river. Although she was not sure, she vaguely felt that the zombie that issued the command howl today was the same zombie as before.
The zombie gave her a very strange feeling. She couldn't tell whether it was dangerous or not. Anyway, the zombie's eyes were very weird. She was holding a telescope across the river, and it seemed like they stared at each other for a moment. It was quite scary.
Her heart almost skipped a beat.
Suddenly someone next to him said, "We seem to have seen the zombies you mentioned."
Lin Tantan looked at her with a slight surprise. It turned out to be a short-haired, long-faced woman of about 27 or 28 years old. There were several men and women sitting closely beside her, who were obviously companions.
Lin Tan Tan asked, "When did you see it? I'm sure it had pale skin and was extremely skinny, like skin and bones, but it didn't look very rotten."
"Yes, that's it," the woman said. "About an hour ago, when we were ambushing a group of zombies, it suddenly appeared on the roof. The straight-line distance was at least thirty hundred meters. I'm severely nearsighted, and it's improved a bit since I got my powers, but it's still mildly nearsighted. I haven't worn glasses for fear they'd get in the way, so I shouldn't have been able to see the zombie clearly from that distance. But I felt like I was looking directly into its eyes and could see its eyeballs clearly."
Talking about that moment, the woman frowned and felt a little nervous: "I was scared at the time. I thought it was going to pounce on me, but it nimbly climbed to the top of another house and then I disappeared."
After listening to her description, Lin Tantan had an idea in her mind. It should be the zombie she had seen.
The woman's companion, a man with a crew cut, also said, "Xiaolu screamed at the time, and I followed her gaze and felt like I was staring into the zombie's eyes. It was really weird."
The woman's other companions also said that they had made eye contact with the zombie, but only one of them was too busy killing zombies to pay attention. When they looked again, the zombie was gone.
Several people shared their feelings at the time, but they couldn't say much more. They just felt it was weird, but they didn't know what was weird about it. Anyway, it was quite disgusting.
It was completely dark as they were talking. They closed the doors and windows, turned on no lights, and just sat or lay down to rest. Some of them actually fell asleep, but most of them couldn't sleep in such a situation.
Ye Xiao told Lin Tantan to just sleep on his own, as he was there. Lin Tantan leaned in his arms, treating him as a sofa, which was quite comfortable. His body temperature was also transferred to her slowly, which was very pleasant in this slightly cool night.
She whispered, "Then I'll sleep in the first half of the night, and you sleep in the second half."
Ye Xiao smiled and said, "It's okay. Sun Pan will be on guard in the second half of the night. You don't have to worry about this." Sun Pan is the one with thunder-type abilities.
Lin Tan Tan said nothing more, her eyelids began to feel heavy, and she gradually fell asleep in his arms. Before falling asleep, she was still thinking that he was by her side, and she would not have the nightmare of fishing him out of the water this time.
As a result, before she could have a nightmare, she was woken up by the slightest noise around her.
When she opened her eyes, it was pitch black, with only the dim moonlight shining through the curtains. She felt Ye Xiao move from leaning to sitting upright, and she caught the sound of heavy and rapid breathing not far away. Someone was whispering "No" and "Help", and there was more than one person.
Lin Tan looked towards the source of the sound. Ye Xiao noticed that she was awake and whispered in her ear, "Awake?"
Lin Tan Tan hummed and sat up: "What's going on?"
Ye Xiao turned on the flashlight and shone it over. The woman who had spoken to her before and her companion were sleeping soundly against the wall, but the strange thing was that everyone had a frown on their face, a ferocious expression, sweat all over their foreheads, and even kept shaking their heads and mumbling, as if... they were having a nightmare!
Their breathing became heavier and heavier, revealing a strong sense of fear, and their hands and feet began to struggle. More and more people in the classroom were disturbed and opened their eyes.
