Quick Wear: The Law of Salvation of Cannon Fodder

Chapter 17 Walking Human Serum in the Apocalypse 16

Just as several people were preparing to consider what to do next.

The zombies that were originally wandering outside suddenly seemed to have received some kind of instructions and began to launch a frantic and fierce attack on the gate. Their numbers were also increasing.

"What's going on?!"

"They're coming!"

The glass door, which was originally extremely solid, began to shake and even cracked, as if it might break at any time and could not hold up for much longer.

"Run! Run upstairs!"

Someone shouted loudly, and everyone rushed towards the stairs as if awakened from a dream.

Originally, everyone was hoping to hold on for a while longer, waiting for more psychics to come to support them, but now, facing this group of zombies that suddenly attacked, they had no power to fight back at all.

However, after finally reaching the third floor, everyone was horrified to find that there were also a large number of zombies rushing towards them upstairs. Everyone ran back one after another.

Lu Ze acted decisively and immediately used his special abilities to buy them time to escape.

At the same time, Yu Tian used his special ability without hesitation, releasing an earth wall to block the passage between the second and first floors, so everyone was temporarily trapped on the second floor.

"948, what exactly happened? Why did these zombies suddenly become so violent?"

948 pondered for a moment and replied, "Based on the current situation, my initial investigation suggests that the zombies may have noticed their plan and, in order to prevent it from being carried out smoothly, they chose to launch an attack in advance."

Xie Qi's eyes widened upon hearing this, and he asked in disbelief, "Are you kidding? Zombies don't have brains, how could they possibly know their plan?"

948 continued to explain, "While ordinary zombies lack intelligence, there is now a Zombie King. It is that Zombie King who is controlling the other zombies right now."

Hearing the words "Zombie King," Xie Qi's expression instantly grew serious. He frowned and questioned, "Zombie King? Why would it appear at this time? According to the original plot setting, shouldn't it appear later in the story? 948, are you sure this isn't a bug?"

948 responded with a very firm tone, "Please rest assured, host, this is not a system malfunction. The instigator of the current situation is none other than the outsider Xu Yi."

After some investigation, the system finally understood the truth of the matter. It turned out that Xu Yi had been recklessly conducting experiments on living humans in order to develop the serum.

The unfortunate life form that became the experimental subject happened to be the zombie that was now lurking outside the door. It could be said that the reason why everyone was in such a predicament was entirely due to Xu Yi's involvement.

"I give up! Xu Yi, this troublemaker, will eventually bring about his own death."

The originally good mission of saving the world has become more difficult because of Xu Yi.

"They're coming up!"

Just when everyone breathed a sigh of relief and thought they were temporarily safe, a zombie suddenly appeared on the second-floor windowsill. It stepped on the bodies of other zombies and climbed up like a ladder.

Just as the zombie was about to climb up, a dazzling electric current crackled towards the zombie, turning it into ashes in an instant.

Seeing Lu Ze's actions, other people with special abilities also used their special abilities and joined in the fierce battle. However, a steady stream of zombies came like a surging tide, and the number was staggering.

This sudden wave of zombies was far more terrifying and desperate than they had imagined. Zombies climbed onto the windowsill one after another, seemingly without end.

Although these psychics are powerful, they gradually feel overwhelmed by such a large number and the continuous consumption of their psychics.

After such a long period of high-intensity energy output, they didn't know how much longer they could hold out. If they couldn't hold on any longer, they might all die.

At this moment, those ordinary people who were powerless could only hide in the innermost part and tremble. Their faces were pale, their eyes were full of despair and fear, and they were sobbing softly, as if death had already come.

As time passed, more and more psychics collapsed to the ground as their energy was depleted. Their bodies gradually grew weaker and eventually they could no longer fight.

But Lu Ze never gave up. He gritted his teeth, beads of sweat gradually appearing on his forehead, but he still stood there firmly, using his body to protect the people behind him.

Just when Lu Ze was about to give up, a deafening gunshot pierced the sky and resounded through the clouds! As the gunshot faded, the zombies who had been desperately climbing up suddenly seemed to lose their sense of direction and fell down one after another.

They no longer continued to climb upwards with any purpose, but became as thoughtless as before, and could only clumsily use their bodies to hit the closed door.

Whether they were ordinary people or those lying, sitting or standing due to the exhaustion of their superpowers, they were all attracted by this sudden dramatic change and turned their eyes towards the direction where the gunshots came from.

Then they saw Xie Qi standing steadily on the second-floor balcony, holding a gun in one hand, his posture as straight as a pine tree, his eyes firmly pointed into the distance.

It was then that everyone noticed that in the direction the gun was pointing, there was a completely different zombie. Unlike the other zombies, it didn't move stiffly, but instead, it covered its head with one hand and knelt on the ground in pain.

There was no doubt that this zombie was the high-level zombie that controlled the other zombies. However, what shocked them even more was how Xie Qi had accurately found this high-level zombie among so many zombies.

Before they had time to think about it, Xie Qi fired several shots in succession. If there were no other zombies blocking the Zombie King, he would have shot him in the head with the first shot.

However, the Zombie King seemed to have noticed something at this moment, and all the bullets shot at it were blocked by the invisible gas around it.

"Host! Hurry! Once the Zombie King recovers, it will definitely launch a new wave of zombies! It will be difficult to find it by then!"

"I know! Stop yelling! It's giving me a headache!"

Xie Qi rubbed his brain which was stimulated by 948, put away his gun, turned around and walked into the house.

He looked around and finally walked to a yellow-haired man. He endured the discomfort and bent down to pick up the machete that the other man had thrown on the ground.

Afterward, Xie Qi returned to the balcony and once again gazed into the house. This time, his gaze rested on Lu Ze. He smiled, his eyes reassuring, as if conveying some kind of message to Lu Ze.

"Captain, have a good rest. I'll be back soon."
