Chapter 51

A commotion could be heard coming from some distance ahead. Yu Yue’s instincts responded by filling him with terror making him quickly yell: “Fall back! There’s a large number of zombies coming this way.”

w.a.n.g Xuebing’s reflexes reacted without hesitation, even before his mind could register what he was doing, his hands had grabbed the steering wheel and turned the car around. Yu Yue hurriedly picked up the walkie-talkie and spoke: “Everyone fall back quickly and take the east lane.”

After a few days of cooperation, everyone was now in sync, so all the cars quickly turned around in a uniform manner and drove away. By the sound of people shouting and screaming behind them, it was likely that the young man and his group had already been attacked.

w.a.n.g Xuebing silently stared at the rearview mirror.

The cars had barely covered 100 meters before they heard a bloodcurdling scream followed by a loud roar. Then they heard the sound of cars as the young man and his group followed them, leaving behind some of their companions, who kept screaming as they were quickly overwhelmed by the zombie horde.

“d.a.m.n! They’re bringing the zombies with them.” Yu Yue said anxiously as he s.h.i.+fted restlessly in his seat. At the moment, his psychic power was still not strong enough so he had to rely on his eyesight. However, it was currently dark out and on top of that, it was raining, which made it hard for him to see their surroundings. All he knew was that there were zombies behind them.

“Help!”

“Help!”

The people in the cars that were following behind their group kept shouting as they drove, and a person in the foremost car incessantly called out for help as they recklessly drove their car at full speed towards them. The zombies were attracted by the sound of their screams, and the closer they got to Bai Jing’s group, the more it seemed like zombies were rus.h.i.+ng towards them from all directions.

Even if w.a.n.g Xuebing was not a temperamental person, he couldn’t help but feel a little angry. f.u.c.k! How had they found themselves in such a dangerous situation because this group of people insisted on clinging to them?

Xiao Sa looked at the vehicles behind them. A cold look flashed in his eyes as he asked in a dark voice: “How many zombies in total?”

Yu Yue broke out into a cold sweat.  He had really improved his courage by much in these past few days; however, in the face of such a major crisis, it was inevitable that he would be frightened. There was even a tremor in his voice as he answered: “Very many, at least three hundred, I don’t know the exact number. It’s too dark outside so I can’t see clearly. I only know that a dense horde of zombies is chasing after them and that there’s the smell of blood coming from their vehicles.”

Xiao Sa was silent for a moment as he contemplated the situation in his heart before he instructed them without the slightest hint of hesitation: “Turn around and head back towards the county town.”

Yu Yue froze, his face expressionless as a s.h.i.+ver ran through his entire body: “Elder brother…”

Xiao Sa cast a cold look

towards Yu Yue, and although he didn’t speak out in anger, his manner was imposing as he said: “You can’t always run and hide from every difficult situation. If you do, then how will you all be able to survive in the future? Brothers, you all need to toughen up. Certainly, you all don’t want to become hindrances in the future.”

“I agree.” After listening, Bai Jing immediately nodded in agreement. However, his thoughts were different from Xiao Sa’s. That is, if they turned back, those cars chasing behind them would definitely not get the chance to keep `following after them. Furthermore, zombies targeted who to bite based on their sense of smell and since that group of people reeked of blood, they should lead most of the zombies away from them and the few leftover zombies could then be used to give everyone here a chance to practice their skills.

Thinking back, he could see that this was also the case in his past life. At that time, Xiao Sa was very heartless and only threw him into groups of zombies, but in this life, it seems that he simply switched to throwing other people into hordes of zombies.

Bai Jing glared ferociously at Xiao Sa. Even though it was now water under the bridge and even though he now knew that what Xiao Sa had done had been for his own good, he still felt anger and resentment when he thought about his past life. Heaven knows how miserable he life had been back then; at that time he was still just a pampered young master.

Xiao Sa was completely oblivious to what he had done wrong and was unable to make heads or tails of Bai Jing’s glare. All he knew was that little Jing looked very beautiful with his face flushed with anger and watery eyes. He really wanted to kiss him, but the current circ.u.mstances wouldn’t allow it.

Yu Yue remained silent, his heart filled with terror. He knew that Xiao Sa was right. Not only that, he had been constantly fantasizing about how powerful he was and how he would be able to kill many zombies. But it was now at the moment of truth that he suddenly found himself feeling scared.

w.a.n.g Xuebing had no objection so he threw the walkie-talkie to Xiao Sa. Turning back, what route to take, from which place? Even if he didn’t like Xiao Sa, he had to admit that he was very intelligent and was also able to factor in more things than w.a.n.g Xuebing could when it came to such matters.

Xiao Sa fired a series of orders, when he was done instructing them, the vehicles all quickly turned around, changing directions at the same time, their movement perfectly in sync.

The people in the cars following closely behind them were stunned speechless when they saw them suddenly change directions. Those three cars had taken a calculative risk when they rushed to follow after Bai Jing’s group. They had calculated that since Bai Jing’s group had more people than them, they would definitely enjoy guaranteed safety from their large numbers. But as they were overwhelmed by the horde of zombies, only now did their hearts begin to regret their

their decision. The voice of blame sounded, and even though they were now far away, w.a.n.g Xuebing could still hear the driver’s miserable screams.

After that, they drove in silence. Most of the zombies had already been led away so when they came to an open s.p.a.ce, Xiao Sa immediately ordered: “Equip all your guns with silencers and get ready to fight.” After that, he took the lead and got off the RV.

Bai Jing was not willing to fall behind, so he also got off the RV and quickly caught up with Xiao Sa. Xiao Sa frowned, thought about it for a moment but then, in the end, he didn’t say anything. He was aware that little Jing was also a man and that he also liked taking charge, and that in the future, little Jing would only keep getting stronger. Even if he makes sure to protect him, there would always be some slip-ups. But Xiao Sa wasn’t worried since he believed that little Jing’s skill was not inferior to his.

It was windy and raining outside, so the moment they got out, they felt the cold wind and large drops of rain hit their bodies, quickly drenching their clothes. Even before they could register the discomfort in the body, Bai Jing and Xiao Sa both lifted their guns and fired at almost the same time.

Although the zombies were powerful, they moved in a very stiff manner which made them easy targets. Bai Jing’s flexible body shuttled through the wind and rain, gun in hand, shooting through the horde of zombies; they quickly fell dead to the ground in his wake. Watching the two men bravely fighting zombies in this stormy night sparked a fire in everyone and an intense desire for battle welled up in their hearts.

“I have also arrived.”Liu Wei had already been itching to use his newly found abilities, so he was eager to get on with the fight. Following his loud battle cry, everyone joined the battle.
