Chapter 6 (1/2)

Chu Han’s expression was a mask as the zombies approached him. He flexed the fingers on his right hand and gripped the axe firmly. The weight of an axe in his right hand was a familiar feeling; in his past life, he had often wielded an axe one-handed to hew down countless zombies.

The two zombies rushed at him in tandem, baring their sharp teeth and hissing furiously. They wanted sink their teeth into Chu Han’s flesh, tear his body into pieces, and feast on his still-warm organs.

”Run!!”” Zhang Ziyu shouted loudly, unable to bear the situation any longer.

Chu Han’s figure was as straight as a spear. When the two zombies were less than a meter away from him, he extended his right foot while simultaneously raising his axe. His right foot sent one zombie flying, and he brought his axe down upon the head of the other zombie in a vicious arc.

*Bang!*

His axe moved swiftly and struck cleanly. Chu Han targeted the zombie’s head, which was the most vulnerable part of the zombie. The zombie’s skull was shattered by the impact of the blow.

Pus spurted out the zombie’s brain onto Chu Han’s face, and a few sc.r.a.ps of decaying flesh flew into his mouth. Two eyeb.a.l.l.s popped out of the zombie’s sockets and rolled on the ground.

At this moment, the zombie that was kicked down by Chu Han clawed itself back up and rushed at him, roaring in rage. It felt no sadness whatsoever at the death of its comrade.

*Puff!* Chu Han spat out the rotten flesh and raised his axe.

He cut down the remaining zombie with a powerful swing which shattered its skull. From the beginning to the end, he did not let go of the refueling nozzle. His axe was coated with brain matter and dark blood, which trickled down onto the floor drop by drop.

The fleeing Zhang Ziyu was flabbergasted when he looked back. He saw Chu Han covered with dark zombie blood. Two zombie corpses were sprawled by his feet, their mouths open and skulls broken.

This disgusting and scary scene filled him with courage. This seemingly nondescript and humble kid had become so fierce; Zhang Ziyu was at a loss as for what to do.

Chu Han killed two zombies with one hand while the other hand was still refueling the vehicle!

Zhang Ziyu unconsciously glanced at the revolting scene on the ground again. A mixture of blood and pus were flowing out of the zombies’ shattered skulls, and Chu Han’s face was also stained with dark blood.

*Blergh—*

Zhang Ziyu suddenly vomited.

Chu Han glanced at him emotionlessly, keeping vigilant while continuing to refuel the G55. He looked around, confirming the area’s safety.

”Don’t open the door! Do not open the door! Ahhhh!” Gu Xiaotong’s screamed from somewhere nearby.

Fan Wei opened the door, and there was an iron stick in his hand. He stopped in his tracks, and Gu Xiaotong’s shouting died down as they saw the situation outside.

The zombies were dead.

Fan Wei’s eyes were filled with fear as he stared at Chu Han, who remained motionless, his axe in one hand and the petrol nozzle in the other.

‘Was this guy still a human? How strong must someone’s mental strength be to remain so calm in this situation?!’ Fan Wei thought with alarm.

Gu Xiaotong was frozen solid, and she looked at Chu Han with a complicated gaze. Although she didn’t witness Chu Han killing the zombies, she knew that the zombies were dead and Chu Han had emerged unscathed from the conflict.

Chu Han removed the nozzle at this moment. The vehicle was finally refueled. He turned back and looked around. His bloodstained and dirty face was expressionless. There was still s.p.a.ce in his vehicle, so he decided to stock up on food from the store.

Zhang Ziyu ran up to him. ”Where… where are you going?”

He had decided to follow Chu Han at any cost!

Chu Han furrowed his brows.

”To my parents,” he answered.

Finding his parents was the Chu Han’s primary goal for this expedition. Some would attempt to find their lovers, and others decided to survive alone, but there were only a few people who chose to pick up their parents from a distant place. They had just pa.s.sed the rebellious phase at this age and didn’t have any sense of filial piety.

Besides, traveling alone wouldn’t necessarily guarantee their safety if they faced danger.

Chu Han, however, was determined to pick up his parents. After all, no real man would abandon their parents in such a dangerous world!

”Can you take me away?” Zhang Ziyu asked. ”Your home is in Anluo City, and you will pa.s.s by s.h.i.+ City. I wish to go to s.h.i.+ City!”

Zhang Ziyu’s heart was on the verge of collapsing. He hadn’t realized that Chu Han was so outstanding in the past. His usage of the axe was calm and efficient. He had managed to kill two zombies with two swings, which scared him.

”We have a car and will not trouble you,” Fan Wei added.

”Yeah, yeah, yeah!” Zhang Ziyu nodded; he didn’t dare speak to Chu Han with his previous att.i.tude.

Chu Han frowned. He didn’t mind if they had a car, but taking them along in G55 would be troublesome. However, going through s.h.i.+ City was the only way to Anluo City, and both the supply of food and their chances of survival would be doubled with two cars.

”Okay. We should take a lot more food from the store,” Chu Han stated.

”Great!” Zhang Ziyu and Fan Wei took action immediately.

Chu Han entered the store, holding his axe with his right hand. He scanned around and entered the warehouse upon confirming it was safe. He had no time to tidy things up outside.

Chu Han ignored Gu Xiaotong as he walked past her, even though she looked at him with complicated eyes.
