Chapter 24 (1/2)
Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales
When Mo was searching for traces of mutated zombies closely in the building and in a dorm, Xia Na and the others were fighting mutated zombies.
This mutated zombie was rather tall and its face wasn’t as distorted as other ordinary zombies. Despite the fact that the face was full of blood stains, they could see that it was a rather good looking young woman.
But when she hissed hoarsely in a low voice and forced Xia Na to back off step after step, she didn’t look pretty at all.
Xia Na resisted the female mutated zombie’s violent attacks with some struggle. From her movements, her arm was clearly strained and she supported herself with her willpower. Not far from her laid the corpse of another mutated zombie.
As for Liu Yuhao, he looked dispirited. Although he was still next to Xia Na helping her at times to share some pressure, it could be seen that he was almost at his limit. Out of the three who followed them, only two were left. One was Wang Cheng and the other one was the boy who almost killed Wang Cheng. But from their expressions, they seemed to be horrified too.
In fact, they indeed underwent a huge mental crisis… After separating from Ling Mo, they headed for this dorm straightforwardly. Before they left, the teachers and classmates remained in this dorm, meanwhile, Xia Na, Liu Yuhao and the others moved all the food of the school’s store here before they left. This food couldn’t last for a long time but it wasn’t a good idea for a large group of people to be trapped here for a long time. Hence, it was inevitable to make part of them go search for another way out.
The best result would be waiting for support, such as the military. In the worst case, they needed to find a safe shelter so that they won’t trap here until they die.
But those who were willing to follow Xia Na didn’t sacrifice for the group genuinely, but because they thought it was safer to stay with Xia Na. Honestly speaking, they didn’t believe that Xia Na would come back.
In fact, Xia Na didn’t completely follow their promise as she came back quite a few days later than when they decided.
Nothing could be done as many who could fight lost their lives when they tried to break out, the remaining people were all burdens. It was impossible to go back with Xia Na and Liu Yuhao alone, let alone bringing those trapped people out safely.
Even so, Xia Na didn’t give up. So when she found out that Ling Mo was rather capable and took “advantage” of her family, she immediately sought for help.
But as Ling Mo thought, Xia Na prepared herself as soon as she walked into the school. Perhaps those people are dead already…
However, she never imagined that such a horrifying scene would appear in front of her!
The dorm had more than twenty people, but other than seven or eight living people, the others were gnawed and devoured with only their skeletons left…
Xia Na had seen more bloody scenes than this before, but eating humans made her feel disgusted and her heart grew ice cold. Liu Yuhao and the others were also shocked. Two of them even vomited on the spot.
Zombies ate humans because they were monsters, but these people in front of their eyes were ordinary people with rational thoughts! They would rather kill their companions and eat their flesh, yet they didn’t want to risk themselves by searching for food!
The most disgusting thing was that when Xia Na and the others appeared, they welcomed them with great joy!
When the closest middle-aged teacher dashed in front of Xia Na with a big smile, she almost waved the long sword in her hands subconsciously.
Guru… Blood splattered from the middle-aged teacher’s neck crazily and he covered his neck with his hands. Disbelief filled his eyes. He stared at Xia Na’s pale face and fell down slowly.
When the others froze, Xia Na turned around and left without hesitation. In this moment, she suddenly recalled what Ling Mo used: worms.
