Glossary

“Elder Liu, this is such a thin rope, would it be able to withstand this many people?” One of the members asked, looking suspiciously at the rope.

“If it can hold my weight, then it will be able to hold yours too. This type of rope can hold up to two people of the same weight without a problem. If you have any worries, I will be the first to go so everyone pay attention to how I slide across!” Liu Gan spoke as he tied a knot that would act as a harness on the special rope. Then, he gripped onto the tied, knotted ends of the rope, and readied himself with both hands on it.

As Liu Gan climbed out the window, looking into the direction of the tree. He tested the tension of the special rope, then jumped forward and off the building. Liu Gan headed, with his body in midair, on the straight path towards the large tree. He slid down the rope at high speed. It seemed to be extremely smooth because it didn't make any noise from friction throughout the whole process. Ziplining through the air didn't alert too many of the zombies below.

There were a small portion of zombies that tilted their head to look above. At this moment, they saw Liu Gan zip through in the air and reached out, moaning at Liu Gan. Then there were other zombies that decided to follow in the direction Liu Gan went.

Liu Gan quickly reached the Large Tree. The steepness of the angle decreased, so naturally, the speed slowed down. Liu Gan stretched out his leg and landed on the tree, stopping on the tree trunk with ease. Then, he sat down on the trunk.

The top of the trunk was layered with zombie clothing. There were scattered broken limbs and organs. What a disgusting feeling. Although Liu Gan had gotten used to this eerie scene, he still had to confirm whether or not there were any zombies that can still move and pose a threat to him. Then, Liu Gan waved at the window from afar to signal that they can now zipline down.

The group of players were still skeptical, so Wang DeCheng decided to be the second one to go. Just as like Liu Gan had done, he suspended himself with the short segment of rope that he was given. After reaching the window, he leaped off the building with both legs. He smoothly ziplined toward the large tree.

With Liu Gan's assistance, Wang DeCheng also sat down on the trunk of the Large Tree. Once again, he waved toward the window for the third person to go through.

“Doctor Lee, you should go first. I will help you tie the rope onto your wrist and waist, so even if you can't hold on tightly, you won't fall down. On the other side, Elder Liu will catch you.” Zhang ShengLi said to Lee Miao.

After these few days of being together, he and Lee Miao were building their relationship little by little. Even though the two of them didn't say it out loud, they were reliant on each other's presence in these harsh times. To Zhang ShengLi, Lee Miao’s safety was more important than his own. Since he was now level 5, he had managd to have some capability to protect her.

Lee Miao nodded to the suggestion. She didn't say anything. Once she got near the window, Zhang ShengLi secured her wrist and waist with the rope. Then, with a push, she ziplined towards the large tree.

Liu Gan and Wang DeCheng quickly helped Lee Miao loosen out of the ropes. They placed her on the trunk, then gave the signal for the 4th person.
