Chapter 29
Compared to Wang Xiong, Zhang Ye was more mature and calm.
Wang Xiong was thrown into disarray by the sudden upheaval, but after a short panic, Zhang Ye quickly made a decision.
“Follow me and fight our way out!”
A red light bloomed from Zhang Ye’s hand, and a small flame floated out, hitting the densest part of the zombie horde in the courtyard.
“Boom!”
The flames exploded, opening up an escape route for Zhang Chengcheng and several other survivors.
Zhang Ye led Wang Xiong and the other two, and Zhang Chengcheng led a few survivors to meet in the courtyard. In total, there were only eight people.
“Where’s Li Zitong?”
“I have no idea.”
“I saw it. Li Zitong escaped over the wall with two women beforehand.”
When faced with a calamity, everyone scattered and went their separate ways. Li Zitong, who had joined Zhang’s stronghold later on, saw that things were not going well, and ran away in advance. Although it was not honorable to flee, he was not to be blamed.
Zhang Ye thought for a moment and looked around.
The zombies had broken through the three small buildings in the courtyard. The screams inside had gradually subsided—the low buildings were like suffocating cans, trapping the people inside. They were all suffocated to death by the buildings.
Thinking of this, Zhang Ye took a deep breath. “Follow me!”
With that, he rushed towards the backyard with the remaining seven people.
…
Zhang Ye was a Level 2 Awakened, Wang Xiong and Zhang Chengcheng were both Level 1 Awakened and other than Meng Jie, the remaining five were all young and strong. Otherwise, they would not be at the front line.
The combat power of the eight of them was quite considerable.
With Zhang Ye taking the lead, the eight of them quickly rushed to the foot of the wall in the backyard.
Zhang Ye jumped onto the wall.
There were zombies behind the wall, but not as many as in front.
He jumped down and crushed the head of a zombie.
Zhang Ye punched randomly, but his punches and kicks were extremely powerful. By the time Wang Xiong, Zhang Chengcheng, and the others climbed to the top of the wall, Zhang Ye had already cleared out a large space.
He quickly jumped down the high wall and looked at the familiar streets around him. Zhang Ye hesitated for a moment.
Where should we go next?
If the gathering place was gone, where could they go?
“Go to the village entrance! Run towards the village entrance!”
Zhang Lixin, who was beside Meng Jie, suddenly spoke.
“The zombies that attacked tonight are the zombies at the entrance of the village. I saw my comrades inside! Now that they’re here, it means that there are fewer zombies there.”
“Let’s go there. There are weapons and military vehicles.”
Once they obtained the weapons and military vehicles, everyone would have more capital. At that time, whether they went to the official shelter in the city center or not, there would be more room for negotiation.
Zhang Ye nodded. “Then let’s go!”
…
The zombies charged from the front.
This meant that there were not many zombies in the back.
However, their destination was the entrance of the village, which was the direction the zombies had come from.
Helpless, Zhang Ye could only lead the group to make a detour.
It was about 9 p.m.
The group finally took a detour and got rid of the zombies.
Everyone relaxed a little.
At this moment, the moonlight was dim and the surrounding street lamps flickered, making visibility poor.
The eight of them walked along the winding paths in the village in the dark, listening attentively to the surroundings.
At some point, a strange sound suddenly came from above.
Zhang Ye looked up and saw a huge corpse descending from the sky,its large feet aiming straight for his head.
However, the strength of a Level 2 Awakened far exceeded that of the giant zombie.
Zhang Ye simply retreated to dodge the giant zombie and shattered its head with a punch.
But this was like a signal.
Just as the huge zombie pounced out, more strong figures appeared around them.
There was heavy breathing, but no typical roar.
This was like a long-planned ambush, and Zhang Ye and the others had already walked into the encirclement of the giant zombies.
The atmosphere instantly became tense.
The giant zombies stood still and looked in the direction of the eight of them. Their pale eyes flickered in the dim streetlights, giving off an eerie glow.
Zhang Ye also sighed helplessly.
He looked straight ahead.
On a certain roof in front of him, a beast-like figure was squatting. It was hidden in the darkness, exuding the aura of a predator.
“Tier 2 zombie…”
Only a Tier 2 zombie could command so many Tier 1 giant zombies.
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhang Ye shook his head. “It’s all my fault. My advancement attracted this Tier 2 zombie…”
Zhang Chengcheng hurriedly said, “Brother, please don’t say that.”
Zhang Ye raised his hand slightly. “Forget it. Let’s not talk about this. Now is not the time to be emotional.”
“According to Dr. Meng’s theory, I’m the target of this Tier 2 zombie. As long as you follow me, you will definitely be chased by it and his horde.”
“I’ll charge forward later and see if I can kill that Tier 2 zombie. Seize the opportunity to break out and run as far as possible.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhang Ye did not give everyone any time to be emotional. He roared angrily and charged towards the Tier 2 zombie!
Zhang Chengcheng wanted to chase after him, but Wang Xiong held her back.
She watched as the giant zombies rioted and pounced on Zhang Ye. Soon, Zhang Chengcheng could not see Zhang Ye’s back.
“Let’s go!”
Wang Xiong made a prompt decision and pulled Zhang Chengcheng into the building.
…
It was even easier for a Level 2 Awakened to beat up a giant zombie than a Level 1 Awakened to beat up a zombie.
Although Zhang Ye did not have much foundation in fighting, he could kill everyone with just his Level 2 Awakened physique and fire-element superpower.
There were many giant zombies around.
But there were only dozens of them.
Most of them were zombies and the high and mighty Tier 2 zombies whose appearance could not be seen clearly.
“Boom!”
His fire-element superpower erupted in full force. Not only did it burn Zhang Ye’s clothes, but it also blasted the nearby zombies far away.
He approached the location of the Tier 2 zombies step by step.
Along the way, zombies were strewn everywhere, and the zombies died in a tragic manner.
However, the closer he got, the more hopeless he felt.
He did not have enough stamina…
The power of the grenade-like flames decreased by more than half.
Physically, the giant zombie’s head became harder and harder.
When he lost his balance, the impact of a zombie could even make him stagger.
This was definitely not an act by Zhang Ye. Zhang Ye, who did not know how to fight, did not know how to conserve his strength.
About five minutes later.
When Zhang Ye was pressed to the ground by a few giant zombies, he saw the Tier 2 zombie jump down from the roof and land steadily on the ground.
Under the dim moonlight, Zhang Ye finally saw the full appearance of this monster.
It was much smaller than the giant corpse and was only about 1.8 meters tall when it stood upright. There was no skin on its body, and what was exposed was its firm, tight, and pink streamlined muscle tissue.
It was still a humanoid, but it was on all fours.
Its hands and feet were slender but firm. Its nails were about half a meter long and flickered with a cold light like steel knives.
The head of this Tier 2 zombie was not big, but its mouth was disproportionately large. A cold light streamed out of its dagger-like teeth, making Zhang Ye’s scalp tingle.
A hunter!
A top-notch hunter that would never evolve in the natural world!
This was Zhang Ye’s first impression of a Tier 2 zombie.
The Tier 2 zombie walked slowly towards Zhang Ye.
Until it came to Zhang Ye’s side and looked down at the prey that had been caught.
Unfortunately, it did not see much panic and fear in Zhang Ye’s eyes.
Zhang Ye spat out a mouthful of thick phlegm and hit the Tier 2 zombie in the face.
“Brother, you look like a skinny old dog.”
