From Zero to Hero in the Doomsday - Chapter 979
Chapter 979 Sea Of Despair
The desolate desert was always filled with reverence. Looking around, one could see a world filled with yellow sand. Occasionally, a little green was as rare as diamonds. However, this was only the edge of the desert. Occasionally, road signs and houses would make one realize that this was once a village where humans lived.
“It is said that after the catastrophe, the desert began to advance at a speed of several hundred meters per month, covering all the surrounding villages. In the past, we had to run at least thirty kilometers to see the desert …”
Li Ru crouched in the trunk and kept explaining the situation around her. Although she was still treated naked as a prisoner, she was now on the same rope as Chen Guangda and the others. Apart from fully demonstrating her value, she had no other way to go. Otherwise, she wouldn’t even be able to see the sun the next day when she threw her to the side of the road.
“The sandstorms here are extremely ferocious …”
Chen Guangda and Yan Qing were squeezed together in the passenger seat. This was the first time he saw the desert. However, the desert gave him a dismount. The terrifying yellow sand not only completely covered the highway, but also completely wiped out the surrounding villages. Everywhere he went, there was practically no grass.
“There are only three bottles of water in the car. We need to think of a way to find water …”
Li Damei took out three dirty large bottles of mineral water from the back of the car. Normally, two liters of water would be enough for two days alone, but the temperature outside was already close to forty degrees Celsius. It wouldn’t be a problem to fry eggs directly on the car. In addition, there were ten of them. It would be good if they could survive the night with this little water.
“It’s better to speed up to the oasis. The adventurers have swept this path hundreds of times. There can’t be water …”
Li Ru shook her head helplessly, but Chen Quan, who was driving, could not get up at all. He was trying to find traces of the road in the yellow sand. In the past, there were still maintenance workers maintaining the road, but now there was nothing left. Even the plants on the roadside were basically dried to death. If they took the wrong road, they would only die.
“Motherf*cker! This unlucky place …”
Chen Guangda cursed anxiously. Everything they looked at was sand. Even if there was a well, they didn’t know where it was. Moreover, there were a large number of small monsters chasing after them. It was estimated that they wouldn’t give up until they were chased into the Evil Desert.
“Shit! It’s boiling …”
Chen Quan’s expression suddenly changed drastically. Suddenly, a red light flashed on the dashboard and a large amount of water vapor came out from the hood. It was obvious that the water temperature was too high. Chen Guangda immediately said, “Continue driving forward. As long as you can hold on to the Evil Man Desert, that’s enough!”
“No way! This place is still more than 40 kilometers away from the Evil Man Desert. This car will definitely not be able to hold on there. Only by quickly opening the lid and adding water can we persevere …”
Chen Quan shook his head with an extremely grim expression. Li Damei quickly handed over the water. However, Chen Guangda pushed her aside and shouted for the car to stop. Then, he jumped out of the car and said loudly, “Find something that can catch the water. Everyone gets down and pees one by one. If you don’t pee, you have to squeeze it out for me!”
“I, I really didn’t pee. Is saliva okay …”
Jiang Shilin anxiously patted the car seat. However, Xia Fei and the others quickly jumped down and found a helmet from behind the car. Without saying a word, they squatted behind the car and began to release water. Chen Guangda also quickly opened the hood of the engine and took off his jacket. When he tightened the lid of the water tank, a large amount of hot water vapor instantly exploded out.
“There’s only so much. Let’s make do with it …”
Li Ru hurriedly ran over from behind the car with her helmet, Right now, she had to do all the dirty work, and she didn’t care about any shame anymore. She only had two plastic bags on her body, which was considered clothes. However, when Chen Guangda saw that there were only more than half of them in the helmet, he had no choice but to personally put in another large bubble of urine. Only then did he manage to barely get enough of the urine from the helmet.
“Hurry up and get in the car! They’re catching up …”
Colleen suddenly shouted in English from behind. However, even if she didn’t shout anything, everyone had discovered the enemy situation. She saw that a large black “tide” had already appeared in the horizon. Her strange cries almost rushed to the horizon, and even the earth was trembling along with it.
“Damn it! You’re really fast …”
Chen Guangda hurriedly threw away his helmet and got into the car. Chen Quan also restarted the damned Korean Hyundai. He directly stepped on the accelerator and flew into the distance. Soon, the black tide behind him was thrown away. However, Chen Guangda also said, “Everyone drinks a large mouthful of water to replenish their body fluids. If this car can’t hold up, we can only run!”
“Heavens bless me, don’t let Chen Guangda’s crow mouth come true …”
Yan Qing and the other ladies clasped their hands together and prayed, After staying with Chen Guangda for a long time, they were all superstitious. However, Chen Guangda’s crow’s mouth soon came to fruition. A large amount of water vapor actually came out of the hood again. However, Chen Quan ignored it this time. If he poured all three bottles of precious water into the car, they would still die when they entered the desert.
“Hold on! Don’t be soft! Hold on!”
Jiang Shilin gritted her teeth and stamped the floor. Her face was as ferocious as if she was going to have a child. However, the women were almost the same. They were all afraid that the broken car would break down halfway. However, the car still couldn’t hold out. In less than half an hour, a terrifying friction sound came from the car and it finally declared its end of life.
“Shit! This is at least ten kilometers away …”
Everyone’s expressions were as ugly as a dead person’s. However, Chen Guangda grabbed a bottle of water and jumped out of the car. The others could only follow him quickly. Chen Guangda turned around and said loudly, “We can’t see the monster yet. Everyone, hurry up and pay more attention to the vehicles on the roadside. No matter what kind of vehicles you ride, you can do it!”
“Heavens! If it’s so hot, you’ll definitely suffer from heat stroke …”
Jiang Shilin howled in pain, but she could only take off her coat and put it on her head. She followed Chen Guangda at a moderate speed. However, she quickly caught up with Chen Guangda and whispered, “Old Chen! I know you have many wives, but if I can’t hold on, you must not leave me behind. I beg you!”
“Leave it to fate …”
Chen Guangda sighed helplessly. Yan Qing and the others’ physiques weren’t necessarily that strong. Who fainted from the heat first might not be able to do so. He really couldn’t do it if he had to take care of an outsider. Even if he did, Yan Qing and the others would still kill him alive.
“Everyone, hold on. We’re almost there …”
Chen Guangda’s eyes suddenly lit up. He saw two rows of huge signboards suddenly appear in front of him. He only saw the words written on them in scarlet letters–only desolate deserts, no desolate lives. Challenging death, defeating him!
However, Li Ru was not happy at all. She was the one who felt the most uncomfortable with her bare feet. She shook her head and sighed, “This is only the real entrance to the great desert. It’s still about ten kilometers away from the Evil Man Desert. It’s estimated that only the monsters over there wouldn’t dare to catch up … I hope so!”
“I can’t! I … I can’t run anymore …”
It wasn’t long before Jiang Shilin couldn’t hold on. She was probably the weakest among the crowd. Before she could finish her sentence, she began to stagger. She even rolled her eyes upwards. Chen Guangda could only rush over and carry her on his back and say, “If any of you can’t do it, quickly tell me. Take a breath on my back and don’t force yourself to do it!”
“Master Guang! I… I can’t do it anymore. My foot hurts so much…”
Li Ru also cried out from behind out of breath, but Chen Guangda rolled her eyes and ran forward with Jiang Shilin on her back without saying a word. Li Ru had no choice but to rush to the side of the road and directly took a pair of shoes from a pile of bones, then gritted her teeth and chased after her.
“Not good! They’ve appeared again …”
Li Tingyu suddenly cried out in alarm. When everyone looked back in horror, they saw the black “wave” appearing in the horizon again and rolling towards them relentlessly. With their speed, they estimated that they would be caught up in less than ten minutes. At that time, they would definitely be bitten to the point where not even a hair remained.
“Bicycles! There are many bicycles over there …”
Xia Fei suddenly rushed to the right in surprise. She saw a well house with half of it buried by the roadside. A few bicycles pulled out their handles from the sand. Everyone immediately rushed over excitedly and pulled out a few mountain bicycles from the sand. There were no more than five of them.
“Let’s go!”
Chen Guangda hurriedly drove Jiang Shilin forward. The rest were bicycles for every two people. The most miserable Li Ru naturally became a coolie again. However, Chen Guangda soon discovered that these bicycles were very difficult to ride. Under the wind and rain, they almost lost their tyre Qi, and the road ahead was covered with yellow sand. It was definitely a formidable challenge for several women.
“Quick … give me a quick push, I can’t move anymore …”
As soon as everyone rode up the hill, Li Ru cried out out, her face was even more pale than a dead person’s. Xia Fei could only jump down from her back seat and push her up, but when she subconsciously looked back, she realized that the little monsters were almost behind them, at most two to three hundred meters away.
“Come on! They’re coming up …”
Xia Fei hurriedly pushed Li Ru with all her strength. Li Ru also took out all her strength to give birth, but the little monsters behind her also accelerated at this time. In the blink of an eye, the distance between the two sides was pushed into a few dozen meters. Everyone could even clearly see the patterns on their carapaces.
“Hurry up …”
Li Ru suddenly roared. Xia Fei immediately jumped up. Li Ru immediately drove her down the slope. Unexpectedly, the little monsters also jumped up at the same time and rolled down from the top of the slope. Their speed was no slower than theirs.
“Shit! There’s no way …”
Everyone’s expressions suddenly changed fiercely. The road ahead suddenly turned into an undulating sand dune. Just as the bicycle rode on it, it suddenly sunk into the ground, throwing the people on the bicycle out one after another. The little monsters behind it were still rushing over like the sky was covering the earth.
