Book 1 Chapter 21: Fleeing
Through Torrential Rain
Rumble~~~
Waves of thunder reverberated throughout the
h the heavens were
taunting the creatures of this earth The slithering streaks of lightning a
the clouds flashed like a derin
The torrential downpour battered against Ye
Chen's back like an unrelenting shower of knives and blades His body
te hihtly His
visage was pallid froitated
the wound on his abdo pain
This unyieldinghis
teeth while running into the distance, as fast as his legs could carry him
The odds of an ordinarya
ruptured abdoin with How anyone could be expected to
scrape their intestines back into their abdo madly afterwards
like Ye Chen did, was beyond comprehension
He was completely drained
Yet he couldn't afford to stop
Perhaps if he were to collapse, he'd be
relieved, very much so…
”Lil' sis…”
Looking into the distance, Ye Chen vaguely
identified a group of indistinct silhouettes From their faint outline and
attire, he could tell that it was his little sister Ye Zhu and the rest
Relieved, he involuntarily called out towards them Perhaps it was due to his
injury that his voice caroan
By the side of the wall, Ye Zhu and the rest of
the group orriedly awaiting Ye Chen's return The sudden call gave them a
jolt All their heads turned to see a h the
harsh rain while covered in mud
”Brother----”
Ye Zhu's delicate figure quivered at the sight
of her brother She disregarded everything and frantically dashed towards him She
was instantly soaked under the unrelenting downpour Immediately after
approaching hi was off about her brother The unperturbed
ie that her brother usually as currently replaced as a pallid visage,
seely devoid of any blood Behind him, was a barely visible red trail which
see from his abdomen
”You're hurt!” Ye Zhu's eyes were filled with
astonishment
As his eyes fell upon his sister, Ye Chen felt
the tension in his heart lessen slightly Not wasting another word, he said: ”Hurry
up and get going There's a strong mutant beast back there and it could come at
us at any second My current strength is still insufficient to repel it”
His reatly startled Ye Zhu She
i and the others and repeated what her
brother told her The others were flabbergasted hat she told them It was
clear fro Their hearts were
clouded with unease
”Run!”
Ye Chen rushed down the path which he had studied
fro each step with visible strain Ye Zhu and the
others followed closely behind him
The group of struggling survivors ran desperately
through the pouring rain in single file As they were hastilytheir way
down the streets, Ye Chen suddenly felt his ulfed in dizziness
Although his body was strong, the effects of excessive blood loss were
inescapable
”Allow ht chuckle sounded by Ye Chen's
ear as he vaguely felt his body being supported by someone at his side The
voice merrily conveyed: ”You've saved me once, noe're even”
Who else other than Bai Long could be speak
these words?
Ye Chen did not say anything, the fatigue he
was enduring made him reluctant to even take another step His vision was
already on the decline, causing the building in the distance to appear as
though they were swaying Drowsiness assailed his consciousness like a tide,second
Ye Chen lightly bit himself on the tip of his
own tongue The added stimulation helped him to maintain his wits As they came
upon an intersection, Ye Chen interrupted saying: ”Turn left”
Bai Long immediately responded and aided him ina left turn as they ran However, they were immediately faced with the
sight of hout the streets As the
rain slid off their bodies, it carried with it a viscous black fluid…
”Not good!” Bai Long's eyes widened with shock
Soon, the an to
notice Ye Chen's group After a series of ravenous snarling, the horde began
scraroup
Bai Long and the others paled in terror
Ye Chen grinded his teeth as he shrugged off
Bai Long's support and swiped the fireman's axe from his hand With a flash of
his body, he was already in the midst of the zombie horde As the veins on his
aron's tempest!”
Boom!
An explosive typhoon erupted from within the
horde of zo into the
distance Without their lower halves, the number of zombies that survived could
only resu their way back towards him
Wasting this horde of zombies took every ounce
