“Is everyone ready?”
It was 6:54 in the morning, Crowe confirmed with Marina and the other two who were ready to go. The three of them were carrying some food and water on their backs. Last night, they went upstairs to search again and found a lot of useful necessities for the journey.
Marina was wearing a light gray suit and holding an old pair of binoculars. She was in charge of the reconnaissance mission this time. Sean, who was wearing glasses, found a fruit knife and tied it tightly to one end of the thin iron rod with his shoelace. At the same time, his left hand was holding a broken door as a shield, making him look like an ancient warrior.
However, Crowe knew that this guy was playing pretend. If he really fought with zombies, he would probably fail after one round. Then, his eyes fell on Joan, who was wearing a dark long dress. He frowned slightly at the sight of her empty-handed and wasn’t prepared for anything.
The situation was serious, and it was an apocalyptic environment. Although she had provided valuable information about the van, if she did not have the readiness to fight, Crowe wouldn’t want to have her on board. He’s not a saint, and there was no reason to carry along a burden as it will only end badly for him.
Marina sensed Crowe’s displeasure and quickly explained.
“Joan is a computer expert. The information we know about the outside world was information that she obtained by hacking into the official network. Although the power has been cut and computers are unusable, if the school still has a place where we can communicate, we can still call for help from the outside world.
“And… she has also practiced combating techniques for a period of time. She won’t drag all of us down!”
After saying that, Joan, who was next to her, also nodded and quickly adjusted her stance. She looked like she was ready to fight at any time.
Crowe kept a straight face. He was a little surprised to learn that Joan was a hacker who also knew combating techniques. However, he didn’t comment on what Marina said.
To put it bluntly, Bastille University was now notorious throughout the country. Since the virus infection, this place became a zombie playground. Even the government wasn’t willing to expand resources and send people to rescue them, and normal people wouldn’t even dare to come to the rescue. At this critical moment of the apocalypse, Marina was naive to still expect others to save them.
Crowe nodded without saying anything. The most important thing now was to find the abandoned van. The [Basic Armored Vehicle Modification Card] was the key to whether he could survive in the apocalypse— He had to get it.
Soon, the four of them were ready. At the stairwell on the third floor, they looked at the iron door that was entangled by chains.
Crowe pulled out the alloy blade and swiftly hacked at the iron chain.
Snarl!
The sharp blade instantly cut the chain and he gently pushed open the rusty iron door.
“There are seven zombies on the second floor!”
Hearing Marina’s investigation results, Crowe turned his head to look at the top of the stairs, then walked into the corridor on the second floor under the nervous gazes of the three people.
Roar!
Soon, the roars of the zombies on the second floor were heard, followed by the screams of pain and the cutting of flesh. After the past few battles, Crowe had completely grasped the essence of the beginner combating technique. In addition, he had four times the strength of an ordinary person. With his current strength, as long as there were no more than five zombies attacking him simultaneously, he didn’t need to worry about getting injured.
Poof! Poof!
The sound of heads rolling kept reverberating throughout the corridor. With Crowe’s quick footwork, his strange figure looked like a spectre.
“Weaklings!”
He stomped on the zombie’s head and crushed it. Gray-white liquid instantly flowed out of the broken bones, joining the black and purple blood on the ground. Crowe suddenly had a thought. ‘These zombies’ movements became more and more sluggish in his eyes. They were like primitive robots. There would always be a momentary pause in their movements, and there were too many openings for him to take advantage of.’
“There are still five zombies left. Let’s finish them quickly this time.”
Crowe gradually lost his patience and slammed the hilt of his knife on the floor tiles.
Roar!
The corridor which had a moderate walking space now felt crowded. Facing the aggressive zombies that pounced toward him, the corner of Crowe’s mouth turned into a slight grin. He stood up unhurriedly and took out his alloy blade to greet them.
At the same time, Marina, who couldn’t suppress her curiosity, quietly walked to the staircase entrance. Leaning against the wall, she tilted her body and peeked out of the corner. Her pupils contract and her calm composure was now overcome by shock.
“Is… is this something a normal human can accomplish? Are you sure this is not a movie?”
Marina witnessed the massacre of the zombies with her own eyes. The ferocious and cruel zombies were cut into pieces like puppets. Their flesh and blood flew everywhere, and then they fell silent. Crowe’s figure dazzled her and the battle scene felt artistic.
At this moment, Marina’s small mouth dropped slightly and words couldn’t describe her shock. Although she had seen Joan’s combating skills before, when being compared to the young man in front of her, there was a huge gap in combating abilities.. At this moment, she finally understood how Crowe survived until now by relying on his own powerful strength.
After all, in the face of absolute power, even zombies would not stand a chance. While absolute power usually referred to nuclear weapons, Crowe’s combat prowess had certainly earned Marina’s recognition.
Her breathing was rapid, and her chest was trembling. Marina knew that she had made the right bet. If she followed Crowe throughout the entire journey, she might really be able to escape from this zombie land.
“The coast is clear, it’s safe to come down now!” Crowe’s voice echoed through the corridor.
Marina came back to her senses and hurriedly walked out with Sean and Joan. The three of them stepped into the corridor. Sean and Joan saw the zombie bodies on the ground and felt nauseous. How could the zombies that everyone feared of, be so weak?
Crowe ignored the shock of the crowd. The next floor was still a stage for him to perform on. The first floor had the most zombies around, but they were no match for Crowe and his alloy blade.
“The convenience store is about 300 meters to the left. The vehicle is parked next to the store.”
The group reached the lobby of the first floor. Through the glass door of the dormitory, Crowe looked through the binoculars toward where Joan pointed with her finger. There was indeed a convenience store not far away, and a dark gray SUV appeared in his field of vision.
Between the dormitory and the convenience store, there were hundreds of zombies wandering about. The only thing that blocked his view was bicycles that were piled up like a hill.
“Sean, get ready to attract the zombies.”
Crowe turned and ordered the nervous-looking Sean, before he cut off the chains on the glass door. At the same time, Sean took out a blue teddy bear from his backpack, trembling as he handed it to Crowe.
Whoosh!
The moment the door opened, Crowe pressed a button on the toy and threw it out with all his strength. The bear flew in the opposite direction of the convenience store. Soon, the sound of a lullaby was heard from the bear.
A large group of zombies roared and pounced in the direction of the sound. Soon enough, the field between the dormitory and the convenience store became empty.
“Hurry up!” Crowe muttered and dashed out, followed closely by the others.
He ran as fast as he could, Crowe’s face slowly lit up with joy as the convenience store got closer and closer. Soon, Crowe finally arrived in front of the vehicle. He used the card on the abandoned van as fast as he could.
“Ding! [Basic Armored Vehicle Modification Card] used successfully!”
“Target — Delivery van!”
“Time required — 3 minutes!”
“Begin modification….”
