“So there are so many?” Fortunately, except for the east gate which was an electric retractable gate, the other gates were all high iron gates.
When Zhang Zhongmin arrived, he was also shocked by the zombies piled up at the door. There were at least several hundred zombies.
“Squad leader, there are a lot of zombies here at the south gate. They are piled up at the door. There are too many. And they are still increasing. We can’t take action. And it looks like the iron gate will be pushed down soon if it continues like this.”
“Squad leader, the situation at the west gate is similar.”
“How about the east gate?” If there are too many zombies, the east gate should be the most serious place.
“Squad leader, we don’t see any zombies here at the east gate.” Liu Guo’an said, “We will come there to support you.”
“No, you stay. Notify us as soon as there is any situation.” Although there were no zombies over there yet, but once there were zombies, it would become the most vulnerable place to be breached.
“Yes!”
At this moment, Fu Ke slowly walked over with an oil barrel.
Zhang Zhongmin’s hair was about to be pulled out, but he had no idea how to deal with this group of zombies. The best way was for someone to go out and lure these zombies away.
But in this case, based on the number of zombies, the person who went out would most likely not be able to come back.
Zhang Zhongmin’s eyes were red with anxiety. Then he turned around and saw Fu Ke walking slowly over: “What are you doing? Didn’t I tell you to hide in the dormitory? What are you doing here? You don’t think this place is chaotic enough?”
He also got angry, so he yelled at Fu Ke furiously.
Fu Ke blinked: “Fire can burn zombies. There are still a few barrels of oil in the kitchen of the cafeteria. Just ask them to light a fire and burn these zombies to death.”
As she said that, she put the oil barrels on the ground: “I don’t have a lighter.”
“…” Zhang Zhongmin was so choked by her that he couldn’t speak. The girl in front of him was delicate and frail. Looking like she just graduated from college.
But why did she know so much about zombies? But thinking about Chen Meijia, young people nowadays liked to read novels. Did they get to know it from novels?
“I’m leaving.” Fu Ke delivered the oil, and turned around and left. She really didn’t want to help.
When she said help, she just wanted to tell them a way. She didn’t want to have a close relationship with humans, it was better to be alone.
Her death in the previous life was due to the exposure of identity, so in order to prevent her identity from being exposed in this life, she had to keep her distance from humans, and it was best not to dig out the crystal nuclei in zombie brains with her own hands.
So, keep your distance at the same time. She also wanted to use humans to help her dig crystal nuclei.
Zhang Zhongmin gritted his teeth and immediately called on the security team and another person to pour oil on the zombies outside the iron gate.
These zombies were not conscious yet and had no idea what this thing was, so they didn’t even know how to avoid it. They kept squeezing in, staring at the people inside with their red eyes.
“Roar–“
“Roar–“
The roars one after another showed their desire. When Fu Ke came over before, she deliberately withdrew the mental power she had released, so the group of zombies did not change because of her arrival.
When Fu Ke returned the same way, she saw people in camouflage uniforms hurrying back to carry oil drums. It seemed that Zhang Zhongmin had informed them.
But when she walked to the playground, Fu Ke looked at the unconscious boy.
The boy was wearing a loose T-shirt with a very loose collar, revealing his delicate collarbones. The raised Adam’s apple was slightly rolled, looking a little sexy.
Judging from his appearance, if the apocalypse hadn’t come, he would have been a popular figure in the school. With a pair of clean and sharp eyebrows, the eyelashes of the closed eyes were also thick.
The thin lips under the high bridge of his nose were a little pale. His eyes were closed, but his whole body was twisting restlessly. There was also a frightening sound coming from his throat.
Fu Ke stretched out her hand and touched the thick eyelashes, which were like a small fan and felt very comfortable.
She couldn’t help but touch it with her hands, curiously touching her eyelashes as well, which were far less long than his.
“Roar…” Suddenly, the boy suddenly opened his eyes, his red pupils flickering.
“Kill me…” the boy said through gritted teeth: “Kill me, I don’t want to become a zombie, I don’t want to become a man-eating monster, kill me!”
“Roar -“
He roared with a voice that was no different from that of a zombie and looked at Fu Ke. He tried hard to restrain himself, and the veins on his forehead kept beating.
“You haven’t turned into a zombie yet.” Fu Ke blinked and looked at the boy strangely. This was the first time she saw someone who kept changing his behavior during the corpse transformation.
She suddenly became curious.
The boy’s face was ferocious as well as painful: “Kill me.”
It seemed that his consciousness was not very clear anymore, and he kept chanting “kill me, kill me.” While the redness in his pupils continued to expand.
“Kill you and you will die. If you don’t want to become a zombie, don’t lose consciousness.” Fu Ke sat down kindly and looked at him leisurely.
“I know you can still hear my voice, believe me. After losing consciousness, you will become something you hate. As long as you hold on and get through it, you will be fine.”
In fact, Fu Ke didn’t know this either. Her words were not reliable, but she had heard it said by humans in the past life. Becoming a superpowered person or a zombie was all within your own thoughts.
But many people failed to survive. It was only later, after everyone got to know about it, that more people relied on their willpower to survive and gained superpowers.
“Hold on, hold on -” Perhaps because of Fu Ke’s words, he held on to a glimmer of hope. He no longer thought about killing himself but held on.
Fu Ke wanted to see if this boy could survive, so she didn’t leave, but sat aside and waited quietly.
Except for the east gate, the other three gates were burning with raging fires. Black smoke filled the air, giving off an indescribable smell.
Fu Ke frowned, hating the unpleasant smell.
Looking at the boy, his lips were chapped. His mouth was opening and closing as he was mumbling something, but his voice was no longer clearly audible. Fu Ke didn’t know if he could survive it.
Probably because of his good looks, Fu Ke felt compassion for him because of his specialness. So, she stretched out her hand and put it between his lips, and a stream of clear water slipped into his throat.
The boy who was about to lose consciousness frantically swallowed the water around his mouth.
After a while, Fu Ke took back her hand.
After Fu Ke retracted her hand, the boy slowly opened his eyes. There was still a trace of blood in his eyes, which had not completely dissipated. But he had become much more awake.
“Thank you…” The boy opened his mouth and said hoarsely.
“If you want to thank me, wait until you can get over it.” Fu Ke smiled, and the shallow pear dimples on both sides of her mouth were very cute.
The boy said with firm eyes: “I will definitely get through it.”
Fu Ke put her cold hand on his forehead: “The fever hasn’t subsided yet. You have to wait until at least the fever subsides before you’ll be fine. It’s been too long. If you get through it, just look for me at the exclusive restaurant over at Dongdaemun. Let me do it.”
With that, Fu Ke turned around and left.
She thought there was a flash of sadness in the boy’s eyes. But she would be waiting for him.
“My name is Lu Xun!” the boy shouted quickly.
“Wait until you come to me to tell me your name.” Fu Ke turned a deaf ear and couldn’t bear it. It was no use even if she knew at this time.
Lu Xun clenched his fists, his vision had blurred and his brain hurt from the inside out as if something was eroding it. He then took a few deep breaths.
He didn’t touch the tap water, and he wasn’t scratched by zombies. Why did he get infected? In the blur, he suddenly thought of air.
Were there sources of infection in the air?
Lu Xun guessed well, there were also sources of infection in the air. However, the sources of infection in the air were very mild, and ordinary people were not easily infected by the sources of infection in the air.
But he didn’t know what happened to the weather at night during this period. It was getting colder and colder. So, Lu Xun accidentally caught a cold. Because of his cold, the source of infection took advantage of him.
Except for the pitiful roars of zombies coming from the east gate, even though they were tireless and in pain, they were still afraid of fire.
The miserable sound of the zombies being burned by the fire frightened all the zombies that were coming. None of them dared to move forward. They were all afraid of the raging fire.
They subconsciously knew that fire could destroy them, so they were afraid of fire.
The people at the gates on several sides may be scared, or maybe they were tired. Sitting on the ground sweating profusely, looking at the blazing fire, they suddenly smiled.
See, zombies aren’t that scary. Even with scary things, there are ways to destroy them!
Fu Ke returned to the exclusive restaurant and took out her mobile phone to play stand-alone games while lying on the bed. When she was done playing, she took out the pork and cut it up to eat.
She really hoped that the boy could survive it, and after that, let him help get her crystal cores. Today she saw a lot of zombies piled up at the entrance of the school, even though they were first-level zombies.
But the crystal cores of first-level zombies could still be used as snacks.
Better than nothing.
Fu Ke smiled and narrowed her eyes. That boy had a strong willpower. He was disheartened when he found out that he was infected before, so he slowly started transforming into a zombie. But with her reminder, he suddenly gained confidence. And used all his willpower to resist.
Nine times out of ten, they won’t turn into zombies.
Fu Ke ate the pork bite by bite and played games while eating. She felt happy when she thought about the many crystal nuclei she would have in the future.
She could taste a lot of flavors when eating crystal cores, which was different from this pork which could only fill her stomach. Therefore, when she thought about the crystal cores, Fu Ke became a little greedy.
After eating, Fu Ke thought about how there were so many zombies at the North Gate before. It seemed that a lot of people had turned into zombies. She immediately packed her things and waited to go out after dark.
She had not forgotten that her space still needed gold to feed it.
Going out in broad daylight was too eye-catching, so Fu Ke set out while it was dark. When passing by a jewelry store, she first used her mental power to detect if there was anyone inside.
If there were people, she won’t go inside. If there were no people, she would go in and search for gold, and then throw them all into the space.
The raging fire in the school continued to burn until night, and no one guarding the door dared to leave. Seeing the iron gate being deformed by the fire, their heart became even heavier.
As for the people hiding in the dormitory, no one dared to come out even if they were hungry.
While Lu Xun, who was tied up on the playground, slowly opened his eyes.
His pupils had returned to their normal color, but if you looked closely, there was a faint golden color in them.
