Zombie Apocalypse - Chapter 228
Chapter 0228 Night Walk
Heaven-shaking thunder resounded throughout the entire earth! After that, it rained heavily!
Along the way south, more and more people gathered. By dawn, there were already a thousand people in this troop!
These people all ran out of some hiding places nearby. Those small gathering places had built simple city walls. People had been hiding inside the city walls for months or even a year, but now they were unable to continue hiding. After the ground started to shake, groups of zombies appeared near the gathering places. In the end, they could only choose to flee! Otherwise, they would be surrounded by the zombies and eventually drown in the sea of corpses. When some people escaped, they would naturally die or become zombies!
At this moment, the earth was shaking non-stop. The night-walkers were groping their way through the rain. As the procession mechanically walked forward, they had no destination, or rather, their only purpose was to avoid the man-eating zombies. This was more like an apocalypse after the apocalypse!
At the very front of the group, the leader of the hundreds of people Qin An and the others had met was called Su Zhendong. He was around thirty-six or seventeen years old this year.
Su Zhendong was clearly an outstanding leader!
As the team advanced, he would dispatch people riding bicycles to act as scouts and scout in all directions! Once a large number of zombies were discovered, the scouts would report back, and the team would immediately change directions!
He had also assigned some people to control the people who had just joined their team, so that the order of the team could be kept busy and undisturbed.
At the same time, he arranged all the strong men in the team in the outer circle. If there were a small number of zombies approaching, these strong men would rush forward and kill the zombies. After that, they would quickly return to the team and continue walking forward.
It was precisely these actions that allowed the team to move forward without encountering too many dangers.
Qin An and the others walked at the end of the group. The rain had lessened a little, so Qin An did not need to turn on his super hearing and could hear the conversations of the people nearby. At this moment, he did not dare to concentrate on activating his super hearing, because even though he had already walked ten kilometers, the surface of the ground seemed to be shaking, which meant that the earthquake had not stopped yet! The low-frequency sound waves from underground made Qin An kneel.
A man walking in front of Qin’an said sadly, “Ah! I’ve been hiding in that small city for half a year! All the dealers we planted will be able to reap soon! Unfortunately, an earthquake destroyed all of them, and then the zombies appeared. I really want to die!”
Another man beside him said, “Brother!” Everyone was the same! Is there anyone else in your family alive? My son doesn’t know what’s going on! Previously, I heard a person we met before the apocalypse say that he met my son at another gathering place! But that place is more than a hundred kilometers away from me! I tried to find it a few times, but in the end, I was chased by zombies and ran back into the walls of the gathering place! If it weren’t for the hope that my son would still be alive, I would have died a long time ago! That kid is only eight years old! Especially like me! Smart! Ai, I just don’t know how things are now, are you hungry? The child has already turned into a fucking zombie! ”
As the man spoke, he began to cry.
Qin An listened to their words in his heart. Not only was it a bit oppressive, the survivors had been strong for more than a year, but the apocalypse was far from over. It would always bring disaster to the weak, leaving them helpless and exhausted!
At this time, Guo Xiaomei quickly took a few steps forward and walked shoulder to shoulder with Qin An. Then, she said,
“I just heard the group of people talk about, said the nearby area these days have tremors, and some small earthquakes have occurred locally! We were in the mountains before, but we didn’t feel it, but that’s not the point. The main point was that according to this situation, it seemed that this earthquake had just taken shape. I wonder if there would be any more powerful earthquakes erupting! He didn’t know how many days it would last!
Fortunately, according to historical records, there had never been a major earthquake with a magnitude greater than five at the border between Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Xijiang provinces!
In this situation, I think it’s better for us to follow them instead of leaving on our own! Because there were too many of them, and humans had the ability to keep warm in groups!
Looking at this trend, there would be more and more people gathered. Some of the people in the nearby or even farther gathering places would definitely choose to abandon the city wall because of the increase in zombies! At that time, they would wander around, and perhaps they would also join this team.
I estimate that the zombie belt on the border of Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Fuhai provinces should be moving towards the epicenter behind us! There should also be zombies coming towards us from the northwest, southeast, and southwest!
“At present, no matter which direction we flee to, we will not be able to avoid encountering many zombies unless we can grow wings and fly a thousand kilometers away!”
Qin An smiled bitterly. He wanted to grow a pair of wings.
Guo Xiaomei continued, “Although zombies are attracted by earthquakes, if they encounter humans, they will still choose to attack humans first. This is the persistence of all living things towards food! In other words, the more people there are, the more likely it is to attract more zombies, the more dangerous it will be! And if we walk on our own, we can be more flexible.”
After Qin An heard this, he sighed and said, “Since we will meet zombies wherever we go, then let’s follow this group of people!”
Guo Xiaomei raised the corner of her mouth and said, “What? Captain Qin’s kindness has exploded? Seeing so many people, you want to do your part as a fighter? Why did you choose to escape so decisively when the team encountered you? You seem to be a little uncertain now! You are truly a contradictory person.”
Qin An smiled bitterly and shook his head, “I found that I was surrounded by smart people!”
Guo Xiaomei smiled and did not answer. She waited for Qin An to continue speaking.
Qin An said,
“Now the situation is different from the previous encounter with Wang Dalong and the others!
At that time, we had a way out. Furthermore, because of the existence of the D2 skull zombie, the situation we were facing was indeed very complicated and dangerous. Naturally, we had to do our best to ensure our own safety.
But now, we have no way out! In that case, it would be better to follow these people!
Although it may attract more zombies because of the large number of people, but also because of the large number of people, we can also avoid many zombies through their scouting abilities!
As for what you said about being a fighter, I actually thought about it. If a D2 zombie appears, I can charge forward and kill it quickly. At the very least, I can let some of the members of this team escape.
However, I don’t think it’s necessary. After all, I don’t know if the person I saved did anything unscrupulous in the apocalypse. What if the person I saved wasn’t a human, but a ghost?
Little Mei, we’ve only been in contact for a short time. You probably don’t know me well enough.
I found that my heart inadvertently, become more and more indifferent!
I wonder if those of you who live in Western Tibet have such a feeling!
What I’m thinking about the most now is how to survive, even to the extent that I can resort to whatever means I want to survive!
“Perhaps this is who I am, but I never wanted to be like this. Before the end of the world, the image I created of myself in front of others was a good person with a solid sense of duty!”
After saying that, Qin An laughed self-deprecatingly.
Guo Xiaomei also smiled and said,
“Stop talking about good people and bad people! People are two-sided!
Perhaps the life in the Tibetan West Base is somewhat different from other places, because we are under the control of the government and have not changed much from before the apocalypse!
The city construction there had been perfect for a year, and people had gradually adapted to the life on the plateau. Of course, this was because the overall physical fitness of the entire human race had become stronger because of the invasion of the T virus!
There were all kinds of entertainment facilities in the city, and some people were still alive. They seemed to have forgotten that there were still many zombies in the world!
What did you say? Yes, it’s’ Shang Maiden doesn’t know the hatred of subjugation. After singing across the river, Ting Hua. ‘
We can still power up for two hours a day and watch TV.
The school was still teaching, mathematics and physics were still being learned, but English was no longer being learned.
The director was still a playful job. Many movies and TV dramas about the apocalypse would be filmed for people to see!
The government also has newspapers in circulation.
The newspapers would vigorously publicize some heroic figures who killed zombies! In the apocalypse, we need heroes, and we need idols!
Therefore, there was a large group of heroes in the Tibetan government. They were like pre-apocalyptic stars!
For example, a Level 2 mutant with a Level 4 Dangerous Species Parasitic Mutant Beast, I have forgotten what his name is! In any case, he was very famous. He could kill D3 zombies alone, and his strength was ranked 20th on the Hundred Heroes List of the Western Tibetan Government! The people of Western Tibet admired him very much! A lot of girls want to marry him! ”
Qin An was slightly stunned. It sounded interesting. He casually asked, “Then can your strength be ranked on this list?”
Guo Xiaomei shook her head and said, “Of course not. All of the mutants on the list possess powerful dangerous species of parasites, just like the World Exterminating Moths I encountered before! As for my parasite, it is only an ordinary level 2 mutant beast so far!”
Qin An understood.
Guo Xiaomei continued, “Ah!” It’s too far away! Let’s talk about the situation in front of us. Since you want to follow them, I don’t have any objections! The only thing I hope the captain will pay attention to! If we encounter tens of thousands of zombies gathered, then we will have to choose to leave this party quickly! Because then we won’t be able to care about other people’s lives! ”
Qin An nodded his head and said, “Of course, but looking at the orderly behavior of this team, it is obvious that the leader leading the team is not an idiot. He will not bring us into the zombie circle, right?”
Guo Xiaomei said, “It’s not up to him, because there are countless zombies rushing towards us from all directions! Perhaps we can easily encounter a tide of tens of thousands of zombies! Shuttling back and forth among these zombies and escaping from the zombie encirclement is our way to survive!”
Qin An said, “If the earthquake stopped, would they still come this way?”
“Yes,” Guo Xiaomei said. Zombies were very sensitive to earthquakes. As long as they could sense the low sound waves of an earthquake, they would walk in that direction. They could walk for a month. Even if an earthquake did not occur, or if there were earthquakes elsewhere, they would not change directions. Instead, they would always walk in this direction! “It’s like the first low sound wave of an earthquake. It’s an order to summon them to gather. Before completing this order, apart from attacking humans and eating food, they won’t do anything else. They won’t even go to sleep!”
Qin An curled his lips, feeling that the zombies were too strange.
After the conversation with Guo Xiaomei ended, Qin An continued to walk forward. Then, he frowned, wondering if Qin City would be affected. It was only a few hundred kilometers away from this place.
Thinking about it, it shouldn’t be? After all, Qin Cheng was located on the back of a mountain, which meant that he would not be attacked by zombies. Moreover, Qin Cheng was located in the north of Hangzhou City! Even if the zombies in Hanghai City left, they would still head south instead of going around Qin City.
This might be a good thing. If the zombies in Hanghai City were to leave the city and head south, then the resources of the entire Hanghai City could probably be used to arm Qin City to the teeth, right?
Thinking of this, Qin An finally felt that he was in a better mood.
At this moment, a beautiful woman of twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old walked over from the front of the group and came to Qin An and the others, blocking their path.
