Chapter 20 Don’t Worry About Gege

With the car, at least it was much faster than walking.

Even if the road conditions were very poor, if they couldn’t drive through, they would get out and walk until the road was wide enough to find a car.

The whole city was filled with zombies, in the buildings, on the streets, these ignorant and unaware zombies, smelling the scent of living people, were like relentless hyenas that couldn’t be shaken off…

Turning a corner, dozens of zombies were densely gathered a dozen meters away, and the few people quickly got out of the car.

After coordinating up ahead, they quickly found their positions, moving forward against the wall, so at least one side was free of zombies.

Black crystals were quickly thrown out, each one hitting a zombie’s head directly, creating a bloody hole.

Fu Jingmo used his abilities to clear the way, while Red Scorpion was at the back of the team, dealing with the zombies that gathered again.

Lin Mu followed closely behind Fu Jingmo, using an iron rod he found to strike the zombies coming from the side, with the assistance of a few ordinary people and the bald guy.

Along the way, they killed until they were numb, and three ordinary people in Red Scorpion’s team died, and his own abilities were also almost depleted.

Lin Mu finally witnessed the power of the animal-fused mutants.

Her scorpions killed many zombies. Although the scorpion venom has no effect on the zombies, those scorpions can actually crawl into the zombies’ mouths and quickly devour their brains.

Fu Jingmo’s face turned somewhat pale, and Lin Mu was so exhausted that he couldn’t even lift his hands. Swinging the iron rod for so long, his tiger’s mouth^[1]The tiger’s mouth refers to a part of the hand. It is also another name for the meridian point Hegu . repeatedly split open…

However, in this serious and tense atmosphere, Lin Mu found that the abrasion on his hand had already healed. He didn’t remove the bandage and quietly told Fu Jingmo.

They’ve been marching intermittently for most of the day, at most another two hours, and it will be dark soon.

A few people approached the university town, and this area is the gathering place of the zombies…

They hid in the second floor of a building, which was a reception room in an office building. Down on the street, there were endless zombies, and they needed to hurry to regain their strength.

On the Red Scorpion’s side, there was only a bald guy and two ordinary people left. The bald guy was squatting in the corner, gasping for breath, and the two ordinary people were almost at death’s door.

Lin Mu and Fu Jingmo sat on the sofa. Lin Mu looked at Fu Jingmo with concern. Throughout the journey, Fu Jingmo had basically relied on clearing out most of the zombies, and he had expended too much energy.

Meeting Lin Mu’s gaze, Fu Jingmo swallowed the bread in his hand, pursed his lips, and silently said two words, “It’s okay.”

“Otherwise, let’s continue our journey tomorrow,” Lin Mu frowned.

“The military will be outside the city for only half a day. From the looks of it, they will all withdraw from the city by tomorrow morning at the latest. If we don’t find them tonight, it will be too late tomorrow.”

He tilted his head, a smile spreading across his face. “Don’t worry about Gege.”

“…”

Damn, worrying about Gege! Lin Mu gritted his teeth. I think I’m two years older than you!!!

After regrouping, the group set off again.

There was less than half an hour’s journey left to the gymnasium. Everyone hoped to arrive there before nightfall, as the zombies seemed to be more aggressive at night.

The gymnasium in the downtown area near the university campus was usually empty. Normally, the school’s safety drills would gather everyone there.

If they were to evacuate, there were not many exits, and the gymnasium was spacious, making it likely to be the temporary residence for the evacuating troops.

The streets were filled with zombies, and from their observations, the silver truck on the right side downstairs should still be usable.

The driver in the car was already transformed and struggling in the driver’s seat with his seat belt on, indicating that the transformation occurred when he stopped the car and tried to escape.

After some thought, Lin Mu proposed using the method of the people in the town to distract the zombies downstairs. One of the ordinary people on the Red Scorpion’s side contributed his phone with 10% of the battery remaining. It was commendable that he had managed to run all the way here without losing it.

The phone was handed over to Fu Jingmo, who was the fastest, responsible for taking the phone to lure away the zombies.

Red Scorpion dealt with the driver in the driver’s cab and the surrounding zombies, Lin Mu was responsible for driving, and the others hid in the back compartment, then turned around to pick up Fu Jingmo.

After checking twice, a few people quietly went downstairs.

After observing at the door for a while, Fu Jingmo turned back and gestured to Lin Mu, indicating that it was time!

The ringtone of the phone exploded in the originally quiet neighborhood, and Fu Jingmo rushed out with a step as fast as a gust of wind.

The zombies all quickly rushed towards him in an instant. After the mutation, his running speed was no longer comparable to that of ordinary people. He stepped onto the top of a car, and, following the cars on the road, led the zombies elsewhere.

Lin Mu did not hesitate either, seizing this opportunity to run towards the truck. Red Scorpion threw out a scorpion, dealing with the mutated driver in the car. The two of them pulled the driver out of the car.
There were still a few zombies coming from behind the car, and Red Scorpion turned to help. She opened the door of the car compartment, and a few people quickly climbed up.

After she locked the door and looked at the people in the compartment, her expression turned cold, “What about the bald guy…”
