Chapter 224 The Abandoned Cannon Fodder Beauty in the Apocalypse (13)
Everyone felt a chill run down their spines and looked back in surprise, only to see the astonishing figure standing not far behind them, watching them.
For a moment, it was as if the air itself had frozen.
Aside from their bluish-purple skin, level four zombies are otherwise indistinguishable from ordinary people.
It stood there quietly, watching the crowd, a faint smile playing on its lips.
Upon realizing that everyone had spotted it, it gave them a playful smile.
The smile slowly bloomed on its face, but it was like an ice blade slicing through the skin, sending chills down one's spine.
The slight upturn at the corners of his mouth was full of mockery and sarcasm.
It was obvious that it could have caught up with them much earlier, but it was deliberately playing tricks on them.
Like a cat chasing a mouse, it treated this chase as a game, and the people were just unfortunate toys that fell into its clutches.
The intelligence of this level four zombie is terrifying.
Everyone was terrified and tried to continue their escape.
But Lin Haoran stopped them, shouting, "We can't escape! Everyone, listen to my command and prepare for battle!"
Lin Haoran was already very clear that they had no way to escape. Under these circumstances, there was no other way but to fight to the death against these level four zombies.
Bai Nuannuan walked to Lin Haoran's side, looking at her with tender eyes.
"Haoran, don't worry, I will face this with you."
Looking into Bai Nuannuan's eyes, Lin Haoran tightened his grip on her hand, finally feeling some comfort in his heart.
He looked up and met the gaze of the level four zombie, already prepared for battle at any moment.
Upon hearing this, Su Yao shook her head vigorously, her lips trembling.
“We can’t beat it at all. Fighting it would be suicide. We’re not your people, you can’t control us. We’re leaving.”
The level four zombie stood there, exuding an oppressive aura. Su Yao felt as if the zombie could easily take her life at any moment.
After saying that, Su Yao grabbed Li Che's hand and tried to run away.
Zhou Sinian stopped them, frowning as he said, "Su Yao, Li Che, if you leave now, you'll be throwing your lives away. Unless we kill it, we'll never get out of here."
Su Yao knew Zhou Sinian was telling the truth, and she was somewhat devastated. She glared angrily at Shen Chumo and the others.
He vented his anger on Shen Chumo and the others.
"It's all your fault! If you hadn't been blocking us, we could have run away."
That makes no sense. Anyone with eyes can see that they have never escaped the clutches of the level four zombies.
Ying Chu glanced at Su Yao with disdain in his eyes, the long sword in his hand gleaming coldly.
He sneered, "I advise you to watch your words, or my knife will cut your throat faster than that zombie's claws."
Ying Chu's voice was deep and cold, each word seemingly wrapped in a layer of frost.
Su Yao's heart pounded wildly under Ying Chu's gaze, and she wanted to argue something.
But Zhou Sinian suddenly snapped, "Su Yao! Enough! What time is it? You still have the mood to argue about this?"
Zhou Sinian glared at Su Yao with disdain in his eyes. If Su Yao weren't his teammate, he would have slapped her twice already.
Su Yao could only swallow her anger for the time being.
Li Che, standing to the side, suddenly looked at Shen Chumo. The more he looked at her, the more familiar she seemed, but he didn't think he knew such an elegant woman.
Lin Haoran spoke up: "Everyone, although we are facing level four zombies, we outnumber them and together we are not without a fighting chance. I hope everyone can work together."
The bearded man chimed in, "Captain Lin's right. Damn it, at worst I'll die with this thing, better than being a stray dog."
He spat fiercely, his rough face filled with a look of resignation to his fate.
Lin Haoran and the bearded man's words brought everyone back to their senses from their daze and gave them a glimmer of hope.
Yes, there are nearly forty people on their side, and quite a few of them have special abilities. If they attack together, they might actually have a chance to kill this level four zombie.
"Yes, at worst we'll fight it to the death!" someone shouted.
"Let's all go together."
Everyone gripped their weapons tightly, staring at the level four zombie, mentally prepared for battle.
Shen Chumo glanced at Lin Haoran. As expected of the male lead, he calmed people down with just a few words.
But will things really go as they wish?
Shen Chumo frowned as she looked at the Level 4 zombie that was still standing there motionless.
The zombie just watched them without making a move. They had been whispering among themselves for a long time, but the zombie just watched like it was a show, letting everyone discuss their strategies without showing any intention of taking the initiative to attack.
He seemed to be waiting for something...
Shen Chumo's eyes flickered.
Qi Yaotian also noticed something was wrong with the zombie, and his brows furrowed into a deep frown.
What exactly does this zombie want to do?
Just then, something unexpected happened!
Suddenly, the howls of zombies came from all directions. The howls seemed to be the roars of evil spirits from the depths of hell. They rose and fell, intertwining and instantly breaking the original oppressive silence.
"Oh no, an ambush!" someone shouted in terror.
Shen Chumo's heart sank. She realized that the level four zombie had been motionless for a while, waiting for reinforcements. It had deliberately gathered everyone here to trap them like turtles in a jar.
At this moment, the zombies hidden in the shadows were surging towards them in an endless stream. Their numbers were so great that they seemed to stretch as far as the eye could see.
They were either mutilated or had festering skin, their eyes flashing with a bloodthirsty red light, their mouths emitting a foul stench, revealing sharp fangs, and they roared as they pounced on the crowd. The scene was like a nightmare come true, sending chills down one's spine.
How come there are so many zombies in this storage facility?
In the monitoring room, the figure held an empty syringe in his hand, his expression returning to normal, as if the loss of control had never occurred.
He casually dangled the syringe in his hand, watching the monitor show the crowd surrounded by zombies, and laughed heartily.
"A bunch of rats," he said with a laugh, his voice filled with utter contempt.
"They even dared to try to kill my beloved child; they are truly overestimating themselves."
but...
When his gaze fell on Ying Chu and the others who were fighting against zombies in the surveillance footage, the contempt in his eyes was instantly replaced by intense hatred.
These people actually killed his beloved pet cat; it's truly unforgivable.
A dark light flashed in his pupils, followed by an invisible sound wave that emanated from the monitoring room.
At that moment, the level four zombie's eyes suddenly lit up with red light, and its already bloodthirsty and cruel gaze became even more ferocious.
As if it had received some kind of command, it stopped standing by and watching the show as before, and suddenly moved, rushing towards the crowd like a ghost.
