Chapter 132: Killing on the bridge (1/2)
Chapter 132 - Killing on the bridge
With Liu Gan and Yin He opening a path, the group's momentum increased. Amongst the local survivors there were some strong players. Especially those that were on the roof when they stalled Liu Gan earlier. After they witnessed Gan and Yin He ruthlessly killing zombies, only fear was visible in their eyes.
Luckily, the local survivors didn’t fight with the players. If they fought these two god-killers would rush over and nobody could stop them. I would be a complete massacre.
“Throw away the bicycles! Charge towards the bridge with full speed and kill!” Liu Gan was feeling that the situation wasn’t right as he commanded the players.
The players were showing painful expressions, one could see their reluctance to part with their resources, since throwing away the bicycles meant leaving behind their food. A good amount of local survivors who were starving and physically thin, once they heard that players were abandoning their bikes, they saw that there were a lot of food on those bicycles. They rushed towards bicycles and forced food into their mouths, it didn't matter if food was raw or cooked.
At this moment, not only the zombies on the bridge rushed over also all other zombies in area which heard the noise were also rushing towards group. Liu Gan and Yin He with stronger local survivors were killing more and more zombies, but these zombies were coming in like a big wave which made it harder to approach the bridge.
For the elderly, sick, and disabled people who rushed over to eat the food was unhindered. With attacks from zombies their voices or cries for help could be heard. However everyone was focused on their battles, they had to care for their own safety, so it was impossible for anyone to care for the elderly, disabled and the sick people.
The real world followed the survival of the fittest with only the strong surviving and the weak perishing. Even if they were transferred to [The Trembling World] the law of the world didn’t change, in fact it became even more cruel. There was no pity for the weak, it wasn’t because they weren’t feeling any sympathy, but because they themselves had to work hard to survive and there wasn’t time to feel sympathy.
[TL: Sympathy is a luxury for the strong. Please read from the original site at GravityTales . com. Much thanks]
Facing this entrapment in [The Trembling World], no one was strong and everyone was weak. The degree of difference amongst the weak was not the same for everyone. Those that were overflowed with sympathy would disregard their own safety to rescue the elderly, disabled and sick, but they all would get dragged into doom of other people, by getting surrounded by zombies and then getting shredded to pieces.
“Do your hardest to protect the doctor! If you can’t protect her then abandon her!” Liu Gan shouted ,as he fought off zombies, to Wang DeCheng and Zhang ShengLi.
“Yes. Understood.” Zhang ShengLi nodded. He had Lee Miao by his side. Lee Miao was carrying a simple shield, so every time the zombies close in on her, she would use it to push them back. Then, Zhang ShengLi would come to her aide.
With this many zombies coming closer. A loud scream came frombehind, it came from a player who was fighting zombies with the local survivors. After the elderly, disabled, and sick dead from the local’s side were all . The players and strong locals also started to diminish in number!
After 10 or so minutes, Liu Gan was able to kill his way until he reached the bridge entrance, but by that time the corpse tide was nearby, the tide were looking like densely packed ants as it marched over. The number of zombies looked endless. Once they saw flashes and heard sounds of battle, they rushed over.
Following Liu Gan only 29 people remained alive as they continued to fighting against zombies.
