631 The Day the Apocalypse Came (1/2)
Lin Qiao was quietly listening to their conversation. The day the apocalypse came, she was lying on her bed, having a fever. Next morning, she woke up to find the air pressure strangely high. That made her feel weird, as if she couldn't breathe smoothly. At first, she thought it was because of her illness.
She weakly got up from the bed and drank a glass of water. Then, she suddenly heard screams from downstairs.
Hearing the screams, she felt that things weren't right. She hurriedly dropped the glass, walked to the window, and looked down. There, she saw some of her army friends running out of the building in panic.
Following behind them was a strange man. He was walking in a very strange way with homolateral steps. He moved extra slowly and paused after every step; his head was weirdly tilted.
Due to the long distance, Lin Qiao couldn't see his face and look. She saw a soldier who wasn't properly dressed run past him, and then he suddenly turned and pounced on that soldier. He swiftly pressed that soldier to the ground, then lowered his head to bite him.
Lin Qiao was shocked at that time. Before she could figure out what was happening, a second scream was heard. Within a blink, she saw more weird people shambling out of the building.
She still remembered that first soldier's scream. Back then, she automatically rushed to her closet and took her rifle out. She then quickly loaded and fired a shot at that weird man's head.
She was in a special position in the army, so she had live weapons.
After being shot, that man stopped moving and lay on the ground. The soldier who was attacked by him became motionless as well.
Before long, disordered gunshots, alarms, screams, and yells were heard from the entire dormitory area.Find authorized novels in Webnovel,faster updates, better experience,Please click for visiting.
Lin Qiao instantly forgot about her fever. She leaned against the window and carefully observed those shambling people. They were all moving very slowly with homolateral steps. However, when panicking people ran pass, those strange people would suddenly pounce on them and bite them like starving beasts.
All the people who were pressed down to the ground by those weird ones ended up being covered in blood. Some had their throats bitten through and stopped struggling shortly.
After a short observation, Lin Qiao differentiated those shambling people from the normal ones. Unlike the first weird guy she saw, the ones who came out of the building later were all covered in blood. Some even had their heads smashed, yet they still attacked other people swiftly.
As Lin Qiao prepared to fire the second shot, the door behind her was suddenly bumped open. Then, a man in a military T-shirt staggered into her room. His face was covered in blood, eyes rolling up, and mouth stained by blood as well.
She recognized that face, but at that very moment, it seemed so strange to her.
After breaking down the door, the man paused slightly, then lunged at Lin Qiao like those weird people downstairs.
Lin Qiao turned and swung her gun over while firing at that strange man.
The bullet hit him in the chest, but only managed to make him pause briefly. After that, he turned around and charged at Lin Qiao again, as if he wasn't hurt at all.
It was already too late for Lin Qiao to fire another shot. She automatically turned the rifle around and smacked the man's head with the gunstock. Next, she rolled to the bedside, took out her pistol, and fired at his head to stop him before he jumped onto her.
That night, the whole world had changed. After that night, zombies were everywhere. They attacked and bit every human they saw, and the ones who were bitten became zombies not long afterward. The apocalypse had arrived.
”What exactly is going on with that zombie?” Wu Chengyue changed the topic, ”Will it gather a giant group of zombies to attack Huaxia Base when it runs out? It's a zombie dominator. It should be very smart. It'll surely bear a grudge!”
”Haha… I think Huaxia Base people need to be more careful when they get out of the base again!” Lu Zhuofeng laughed and agreed.
