Chapter 73 Survival from Desperate Situations
Su Wanqing came out of the space, and the night wind carrying the smell of gasoline blew in her face, making her frown.

Outside the gas station, it was pitch black and the zombies' roars were like low thunder, shaking people's hearts and minds.

"The situation is worse than I thought." Lu Zhao's voice came from not far away. He was checking the modified armored vehicle that was covered with impact marks.

"The fuel was only enough for a few kilometres, and the engine was damaged and could stall at any time."

Xiao Ran stood at the front of the car, holding a submachine gun, and glanced coldly at the zombies around him.

"These things are coming too fast. It's not just a normal zombie wave. It's like they're... attracted by something."

Zhang Lin was standing by, carefully supporting three experimental subjects. One of them was pale, with cold sweat on his forehead, and was shaking constantly.

"E-1's situation is very unstable and a safe location must be found as soon as possible."

Zhang Lin said worriedly, "His physical functions are rapidly declining."

Su Wanqing's eyes swept over the group of helpless experimental subjects, and an inexplicable irritation surged in her heart.

These people who were once used as tools are now like a group of lambs to be slaughtered, trapped in this apocalyptic world.

"Get ready to go." Su Wanqing took a deep breath and tried to stay calm.

"While these zombies haven't completely approached us, let's break out by force."

"But..." Lu Zhao hesitated. "It's too risky to act rashly now."

"There's no other way." Su Wanqing interrupted him. "Staying here and waiting to die will only make the situation worse."

She turned to look at Lin Che and ordered, "Che, help me put some unimportant supplies into the space."

Lin Che nodded and quickly took action, stuffing all the canned food, drinking water and other items in the car into Su Wanqing's space.

"Alright." Lin Che wiped the sweat from his forehead. "I've lost a lot of weight."

"Start the vehicle!" Su Wanqing gave the order decisively.

Lu Zhao started the engine, and the armored vehicle made a dull roar and slowly started.

Xiao Ran jumped onto the roof of the car, raised his submachine gun, and fired at the group of zombies, trying to clear a path for the vehicle.

The armored vehicle rushed towards the zombie group with difficulty like a wounded beast.

The zombies were knocked away and screamed, but soon they came back and rushed towards the vehicle frantically.

"Speed ​​up! Speed ​​up!" Su Wanqing shouted anxiously.

Lu Zhao stepped on the accelerator hard, and the armored vehicle went faster, but the roar of the engine became more and more labored.

"Fuel alarm!" Suddenly, a shrill voice sounded.

"Fuel remaining 10%, please find a gas station immediately!"

Lu Zhao's face changed. "Oh no! We're running out of gas."

He looked around and saw that on the highway ahead, there were more than a dozen vehicles lying in a haphazard manner, forming a huge obstacle.

"Turn to the auxiliary road!" Su Wanqing said quickly. "There might still be hope there."

Lu Zhao swerved the steering wheel and turned onto the auxiliary road. However, they soon discovered that the situation was even worse than on the highway.

There were more zombies on the auxiliary road. They were crowded together, blocking all retreat routes.

"It's no use!" Lu Zhao shouted in despair. "We're surrounded!"

The armored vehicle finally stalled under an overpass. The zombies surged in like a tide, surrounding the vehicle.

"Everyone, get out of the car and prepare for battle!" Xiao Ran shouted loudly.

The team members quickly got out of the car, formed a defensive formation, and were ready to fight with weapons in hand.

Su Wanqing stood beside the car, observing the battle calmly. She knew that this battle would be extremely difficult.

"We must scatter and break out," Su Wanqing said gravely. "Lu Zhao, you, Xiao Ran, and Zhang Lin lead E-1 and E-2 westward to find cover. Che and I will protect E-3 as we break out eastward."

"Su Wanqing, are you sure?" Lu Zhao said, a little worried. "E-3's condition is very unstable. It's too risky to take her with you."

"We have no choice," Su Wanqing said firmly. "E-3 could transform into a zombie at any moment. We must find a safe place as soon as possible." "Okay." Lu Zhao nodded. "Remember, meet at the abandoned hospital northeast of the base in three days."

He took out a small signal transmitter from his pocket and handed it to Su Wanqing.

"This is an emergency signal transmitter. If you encounter danger, send a distress signal immediately."

"And." Lu Zhao paused and his tone became serious.

"Your spatial abilities are special, but can be unstable. Use them with caution."

Su Wanqing took the signal transmitter and nodded. She knew that Lu Zhao was right. The jade bracelet consumed a lot of energy. If it was overused, it might cause irreversible damage to her.

Lin Che stood beside Su Wanqing, his expression solemn. He suddenly pointed ahead and said, "Over there... there seems to be another road."

Su Wanqing looked in the direction of Lin Che's finger and found a narrow path ahead, leading to a dense forest.

"Che, how do you know?" Su Wanqing asked puzzledly.

Lin Che herself seemed a little confused. "I...I don't know. I just feel like it seems safer there."

Su Wanqing frowned. She always felt that something was wrong with Lin Che.

He seemed to have an extraordinary intuition, able to accurately judge the movements of zombies and even predict where they would suddenly appear.

"Forget it, now is not the time to pursue these things." Su Wanqing shook her head.

"let's go!"

Su Wanqing and Lin Che carefully led E-3 and broke out to the east along the path.

Lin Che led the way, and with his incredible intuition, he avoided many zombie ambushes.

"It's really strange, it's like he just... walked past here." Su Wanqing said in a low voice.

"I find it strange, too." Lin Che's voice trembled.

"I...I seem to have felt something, but I can't remember what it is."

He stopped, covered his head, and said in pain, "My memory... seems a little confused."

Su Wanqing looked at Lin Che, her heart filled with doubts. What secret was he hiding?
"Don't think too much." Su Wanqing comforted her. "Safety is the most important thing right now."

The two quickened their pace and continued running forward. The zombies behind them roared closer and closer, as if they were about to devour them.

At the same time, Lu Zhao, Xiao Ran and Zhang Lin also took E-1 and E-2 to the west to look for shelter.

They dodged the zombies' attacks along the way and moved forward with difficulty.

"We must find a safe place." Lu Zhao said anxiously.

"The situation on E-1 is getting worse."

"There is an abandoned building ahead." Xiao Ran said, pointing to the distance.

"Maybe we can hide there for a while."

Lu Zhao nodded. "Let's go!"

Three people led two experimental subjects to the abandoned building.

They entered the building cautiously, found a relatively safe room, and settled down temporarily.

"What should we do now?" Zhang Lin asked. "We must find a cure for E-1 as soon as possible."

"I'll try to contact other survivors." Lu Zhao said.

"Maybe they know where some medical resources are."

He turned on the communicator and started sending a distress signal, but there was no response from the communicator.

"The signal is being jammed." Lu Zhao's face changed. "Looks like we can only rely on ourselves."

Xiao Ran walked to the window and looked down at the surroundings. He found that the entire city had been occupied by zombies.

"The end of the world has arrived." Xiao Ran muttered to himself. "How long can we hold on?"
