Chapter 25 (2/2)

Perspiration formed on his forehead, palms, and the tip of his nose. He let out a roar as his speed and power leveled-up.

He was nearing the end of the hallway, and the last fire door had finally appeared. However, when he reached out to push it open, he realized that the door wouldn’t budge. The door was, once again, locked. And there weren’t any crevices in this door. It was the kind of blast-proof door that only opened in one direction. Once the door was shut, there was no way of opening it from the inside.

There was a bloodstained sanitary pad on the floor! Shen Chen took a deep breath. He still hadn’t managed to figure out what exactly was going on. It would appear that his years of training for the apocalypse had gone to waste and could not be put to good use.

Shen Chen’s eyes started glowing with anger and hatred, and a murderous aura emanated from him. ‘Well done, Zhao Ze!’ He had underestimated this sly fox!

The corners of his mouth drooped, but not for long. With a sudden burst of energy, he stomped toward the fire door with renewed vigor and purpose.

Hotels like this usually wouldn’t use the most durable material for their blast-proof doors. One could leave a mark in the door by pushing a blade into it, but hacking open the door would take more than a few stabs.

Just as Shen Chen raised the Black Blade and prepared to stab at the door for the second time, he suddenly stopped. Once the blast-proof door was destroyed, the zombies would rush downstairs, and Zhao Zhen and Guo Yuan’s lives would be at risk!

He lowered his blade… In that moment, Shen Chen truly felt a sense of despair! Ahead of him, there was no way out, and behind him, there were hordes of zombies.

The smell of decay intensified. He could make out the arms of the zombies from around the corner… Shen Chen inhaled deeply. There was a glint in his eyes! ‘In my previous life, I managed to kill my way out of the zombie swamp. In this life, even if I am no longer as strong, I still have my powerful combat skills and survival instincts! Let’s see what I can achieve in my current life!’

Shen Chen slowly took off whatever could possibly hinder his movements. He then leaned against the fire door and raised the Black Blade with both arms. He stood with his feet apart and raised the Black Blade, his eyes gazing ahead. The vast numbers of zombies were like troops of ants relentlessly chasing after him, and the march of hundreds of zombies made the ground tremble!

One! Two! Ten! Twenty! The zombies were getting closer. The fresh blood on the sanitary pad was making them rabid.

Shen Chen took a deep breath, his muscles all tense! There was now a powerful aura emanating from him, and his eyes shone with determination! His fighting spirit was on fire! He was feeling more macho than ever! He was going to f*cking kill these ugly zombies!

‘F*ck!’ Shen Chen stood there like a seasoned warrior, calm and composed. He was not at all deterred by the grotesque faces of the zombies or their stretched arms and gaping jaws.

The Black Blade might look inconspicuous and unassuming, but it shouldn’t be judged according to its physical appearance! The sharpness of the blade was unparalleled. All it took was a flash of the blade for a few arms to be severed. In the face of the all-powerful Black Blade and Shen Chen’s mastery of it, the zombies appeared to be weak and brittle!

Armless zombies were considerably easier to deal with; they didn’t take long to collapse. The severed limbs of the zombies flew through the air in some semblance of a dance. Every now and then, a single slash would cut off both the head and arms of the zombie, and the blood would start dripping from the blade like rain.

Energized by his indomitable fighting spirit, Shen Chen killed the zombies at the speed of lightning with his sharp blade!

Blood was splattered everywhere! Limbs were thrown about! The blade started moving faster and faster, and more dead zombies started piling up! Shen Chen’s expression remained cold and resolute from start to finish. The blood dyed him a bright shade of red!

This was a fight-to-the-death battle between human and zombies! If ever there was a prototype for the most tenacious human, Shen Chen would be it. One man could indeed hold out against ten thousand!
