48 Changsha City (1/2)

The Black Shark sped along the deserted road as it mowed down any zombies that were in the way.

Long Yu and Xixi were heading towards Changsha city. He now felt more confident about crossing the city after upgrading his car.

Along the way, he was able to harvest some abandoned cars, which at the same helped him removed the obstacles blocking the road. Although most of them were damaged due to crashing, causing the price to fall dramatically, Long Yu did not complain. It was free money anyway.

When they finally saw the sign pointing to the city, the sky had already turned orange from the sunset. After contemplating for a while, Long Yu decided against camping outside the city for the night. Although it might be safer, it would also waste precious time. As long as the threats were only zombies, his car alone should be able to deal with them.

Before they entered, Long Yu pressed a few buttons on the dashboard screen. Immediately, the growling engine turned silent and all that could be heard from it was a soft hum.

Since the original manufacturer's made the Black Shark based on the scenario of an apocalypse, they did not forget to add some nifty mechanisms into the car. The function Long Yu just activated allowed for the engine's loud sound to be minimized in order not to attract attention. At the same time, the car's speed would also be limited to a certain extent.

Next, he rolled down the window before sticking his hand out. Within his palm was a fist-sized spherical black object. Long Yu swung his hand upwards, causing it to fly high up into the air. As it reached its highest point, the sphere suddenly transformed. Six spider-like legs and a pair of transparent wings unfolded themselves, rapidly changing the sphere into the form an insect. The drone hovered obediently in the air, as if waiting for instructions.

Long Yu withdrew his hand from the window and put on a pair of moon shaped headset. It was a black flexible band which wrapped around the back of his head. Attached to it were several probes that rested on certain areas of his skull. A rectangular transparent lens connected to the headpiece also covered his right eye.
