Reborn In The Apocalypse: It Had Always Been You Novel - Chapter 121

Chapter 121: Escaping the Zombies

In front of them was a large group of zombies coming from all directions, and behind them was a group of zombies chasing from the villa. In this situation, Su Shanshan and Gu Jincheng blurted out at the same time, “Go south.”

South was where the zombies were afraid to go. That place had the least number of zombies. Although they might encounter danger there, their chances of survival would be very low if they stopped the car or drove into the zombie crowd. So, they had to take a risk.

The car drove steadily south. The car behind them did not know the situation in the south at all. It only followed Su Shanshan’s car instinctively. After gradually breaking away from the zombies, the siblings heaved a sigh of relief.

The two cars drove south, in the opposite direction of the zombies. The closer they got to the south, the fewer zombies there were. In the end, only two or three zombies were left wandering around. They were also slowly leaving this place.

Unlike the siblings, who started to relax, Su Shanshan and Gu Jincheng were feeling more and more tense. The veins in Su Shanshan’s hands were bulging as she held the steering wheel. All the zombies in City K were fleeing this place. This meant that there was something unknown that was much more powerful than the zombies in City K, which resulted in these zombies running away without even resisting.

For example, although a level-three zombie could not beat a level-four zombie, it would not run away in fear. That was the reason why there was a small difference between them.

This should be where the slums of City K were. The surrounding buildings were in sharp contrast to the villas they saw earlier. All the houses were short and small, and the streets were very narrow. Su Shanshan stopped the car because the road ahead was a small one. She could not drive her car onto the road, and they were also temporarily out of danger here. If possible, Su Shanshan did not want to be up against this powerful fellow.

Su Shanshan turned around and looked behind her. She could still see some shadows in the dense zombie crowd here, but these zombies would rather give up on them than approach this place. She was even more worried when zombies would go against their desire for human flesh.

“Don’t worry, we’ll observe the situation here first,” Gu Jincheng consoled her.

Su Shanshan shook her head. “I’m not afraid. I’m just worried that they might have already encountered that thing.”

She was talking about the people from the Southwestern base. After all, the people from the Leaping Mercenary Group were there.

Gu Jincheng also frowned. He looked ahead and said, “Change the direction. Let’s go in and take a look.”

This road would not work. Once they got out of the car, the danger they would face would double. Su Shanshan nodded and turned the car around to go back the way they came. She saw the car following behind them, but she did not care. She drove right past them and left.

Qu Cheng, who was driving, frowned and said, “What are they doing? Are they going back?”

Qu Ye and Qu Feng were also a little puzzled.

“Who cares what they are doing? There are no zombies here anyway. We’ll just stay here,” Feina exclaimed.

These words made Qu Cheng and Qu Feng, who had always doted on her, frown. They felt that she was too naive. On the way here, they were a little frustrated by her screams and their tolerance for her had decreased.

“Nonsense. The zombies must have a reason for not coming here. If we stay here, we’ll die sooner or later,” Qu Ye did not indulge her and said directly.

Feina’s expression darkened. Realizing that her elder brother and third brother did not speak up for her this time, resentment flashed across her eyes.

“Should we follow them?” Qu Cheng felt that what Qu Ye said made sense. He had been the smartest among them since they were young.

A hint of determination flashed across Qu Ye’s eyes. “Follow. No matter the outcome, it’s better to move than not move.”

This time, no one objected to his words. Qu Cheng turned the car around and followed Su Shanshan.

Su Shanshanson turned to a road that seemed a little wider. She had not gone far when she saw a damaged military truck abandoned by the roadside. The blood on the truck was shocking.

It was obvious what this truck had experienced. This was a truck from the Southwestern base. She wondered if it was the same truck that Jinsi and the rest were in. Su Shanshan got even more worried. She drove in the direction of the military truck and determined where they had gone based on the bloodstains around the truck. Following this clue, the two of them drove to a three-story mall.
