Undead
Chapter 30
"Push!
Push harder! "Dr. Cheng's hands were covered in blood, and his voice was hoarse." Hold on!
Hold on!! "
The woman's voice was completely hoarse. She was sweating and shaking her head desperately. The pain made her expression even more terrifying.
A few women with children surrounded her. Some of them were praying with their hands clasped together, while others could not help but cry. "Push harder!"
"Hold on, you have to hold on!"
Guo Weixiang pushed the door open. "Go, go, go!
The zombie horde is coming! "
The women looked at each other, and the woman's screams became even sharper. In an instant, it was like a sharp knife cutting everyone's eardrums.
Guo Weixiang did not care about that. He went forward to carry the woman, but Dr. Cheng hurriedly stopped him. "What are you doing?"
"There's no time. Go to the car and give birth!
I'll carry her! "
"She can't move!
She'll bleed profusely! "Dr. Cheng shouted." I'm not leaving. I'm going to deliver the baby! "
Guo Weixiang gasped for breath. After Dr. Cheng finished shouting, he turned to the woman and shouted, "Push harder!
Hold on! "
Not far from the window, the third signal flare rose into the night sky with a long tail of flame, illuminating everyone's confused and desperate faces.
The zombie horde was 500 meters away.
The biochemical vehicle came from the end of the road. It drifted through the door and stopped in front of the crowd with an ear-piercing screech.
Zhou Rong kicked the door open. "Go, go, go, quick!"
"It's too crowded!"
Ding Shi poked her head out from the driver's seat. "I'll send a group of people to the dormitory first and let them get on Xiangzi's armored vehicle. I'll come back and pick up the rest!"
It was indeed too crowded. The biochemical vehicle's maximum capacity was limited. Based on its capacity, there would be at least ten people at the scene, and they had to wait for the next group.
Zhou Rong's eyes scanned the crowd and said decisively, "The rest of you will follow the vehicle. Wherever you go, I won't leave you behind!
Women go first, you! "
Wu Xinyan stood up and gasped for breath. Zhou Rongyi grabbed her arm and pushed her into the car.
"Older people, slower people, you!
You!
And you! "
An old man was pushed back two steps and slowly stood up. Immediately, he urged, "Hurry up!" "Hurry up, don't dawdle!"
"I'm not going."
The old man said slowly, "I'm already sixty-eight years old. I'm already very lucky to have made it this far. What's the point of living on shamelessly?
Let the young ones go first, I … "
The anxious crowd immediately interrupted him, "We can squeeze in!
Charge! "
"Don't say anymore, old man, let's go!"
The people around him almost pushed the old man in, and the carriage was soon full. Zhou Rong and Sinan worked together to barely close the back door.
Now, apart from Zhou Rong, Chun Cao, and Sinan, there were nine young men in the open space. Except for a few who wanted to squeeze in but failed, most of them were young people without families who voluntarily retreated and stayed behind.
Zhou Rong gasped for breath and swept the tactical flashlight to the north. In the vast night, ghostly shadows flickered, and the stench of rotting corpses could be clearly smelled with the north wind.
"Everyone," Zhou Rong bowed to the nine survivors with different expressions and said while gasping, "Thank you. I won't say any more emotional words, let's run."
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a loud bang not far away.
The zombie tide stepped into the minefield and immediately triggered an earth-shattering series of explosions!
In the ink-black night, a life and death chase was being played out in minutes and seconds.
In the north of the highway, the explosions gradually moved forward. The army of the living dead staggered but had a clear goal. Rows of broken bodies fell on the road, forming a carpet of rotting flesh and black blood.
More zombies howled and stepped on this carpet to continue to move toward the fertilizer factory, one after another, tireless.
In the direction of City B in the distance, the endless tide of corpses surged, forming an overwhelming wave.
Guo Weixiang escorted all the remaining people in the dormitory building, except for Dr. Cheng and the pregnant woman, into the armored vehicle, and received the first batch of survivors sent by Ding Shi. The entire vehicle was almost bursting.
Ding Shi returned almost as fast as lightning. Before the car even came to a stop, he saw more than a dozen people rushing over in a majestic manner with flames soaring into the sky as the background.
"Where's the pregnant woman —!" Zhou Rong shouted.
Ding Shi almost cried, "She can't give birth to the baby!
I can't transfer her!
I asked Xiangzi to drive the armored vehicle to the south first! "
"Chun Cao, Sinan, take her to the backseat!"
Zhou Rongyi opened the door of the driver's seat and motioned for Ding Shi to move. "I'll drive. Go to the dormitory and pick up the pregnant woman.
Damn it, why don't you transfer her to the car?
You can just take the door panel and carry her away! "
Ding Shi: "I don't know. Xiangzi said that she would bleed profusely if she moved …"
Zhou Rong: "You don't understand. It's like this in the TV series!
She'll give birth as soon as the door panel is removed! "
Chun Cao shouted in the backseat, "I know, I know. The second female lead in the People's Village Committee gave birth like this. It's okay!"
Sinan: "Alpha, don't show off that you know how to give birth. You're so shallow and ignorant … The zombies are coming!"
The first wave of zombies dragged their feet and screamed as they rushed into the gap in the barbed wire fence on the north side of the factory.
Ding Shi jumped up from the passenger seat, climbed onto the roof of the car with the flamethrower, aimed at the back of the car, and pulled the trigger.
In an instant, the fire dragon roared out and fell from the sky, burning several rows of zombies into ashes!
Zhou Rong stepped on the gas and the biochemical car roared away.
Chun Cao stuck her head out and shouted, "Two points ahead, Brother Rong, be careful!"
The flamethrower triggered a second round of nitroglycerin explosions. The thousands of glass fragments that Sinan had carefully etched exploded and cut off the heads of countless zombies in the hurricane.
However, there were too many zombies and the remaining barbed wire fence could not support them. Soon, the fence collapsed in front of the army of the living dead.
The tide of corpses from all directions gathered towards the entire factory area in an outflanking manner!
Zhou Rongyi held the steering wheel and shifted gears with one hand. The biochemical car drifted several times in a row and rushed out a bloody path with beautiful movements comparable to an F1 car, mercilessly crushing several zombies into pieces.
"Hiss —" With a sharp sound of tires rubbing against each other, the biochemical car steadily stopped in front of the factory's dormitory. Zhou Rong ordered loudly, "Chun Cao, go and pick up the pregnant woman!
Ding Shi, cover her! "
Chun Cao kicked the door open and rushed down. Suddenly, her shoulder was patted. Sinan said in a hoarse voice, "I'll go with you."
In the rearview mirror, Zhou Rong's eyebrows twitched. He wanted to say something but stopped on second thought.
However, this insignificant detail was not noticed by anyone. Sinan Hui waved at Zhou Rongyi and jumped out of the car with the submachine gun.
He would not notice the complicated emotions in Zhou Rong's eyes. Even if he did, he would not have the time and mood to carefully ponder over the mixed feelings of guilt, sadness, and self-doubt.
Ding Shi turned on the flamethrower again and instantly cleared the zombies behind the car.
When he was about to change to the Type 89 HMG and shoot again, the crowd in the car suddenly burst out screaming.
"Behind!
Behind! "
Ding Shi looked back and saw that Sinan and Chun Cao had just rushed into the dormitory's corridor when a group of zombies appeared behind them. They did not know where they came from, but in a few seconds, they spread in the small space between the dormitory and the car, blocking the pregnant woman's escape route from the dormitory.
"Damn it!" Ding Shi picked up the flamethrower and pulled the trigger. There was no response.
The high-energy gasoline ran out. There was no fire!
"Brother Rong!"
Ding Shi almost lost his mind. When he looked back, he saw that the group of zombies behind the car was getting closer and closer. They were only less than a hundred meters away from them!
The armored biochemical car they were driving was full of holes. The bulletproof windows of the car were shattered by Chun Cao's rocket when they entered the city center of T city. Later, all the windows were replaced with ordinary glass.
Not to mention that the chassis of the car was low. Once they were surrounded by the group of zombies, it would be difficult for them to survive!
Although Zhou Rong's expression remained calm amidst the fearful screams of the people in the carriage, his face was unconcealably pale. Cold sweat rolled down from his temples, which were always stiff and unsuitable.
"Sinan, Sinan."
He turned on the car's loudspeaker and said in a deep voice, "You may not be able to retreat. Report the situation of the pregnant woman. Report the situation of the pregnant woman."
At the same time, in the dormitory.
The dying woman screamed louder and louder. Doctor Cheng's half body was covered with blood. His eyes were bloodshot. Suddenly, he shouted with joy.
"I see the head!
I see the head! "
Sinan and Chun Cao looked at the group of zombies downstairs. They looked at each other, but there was no joy in their eyes.
"Sinan, Chun Cao." Zhou Rong's voice trembled. "Report the situation."
"Crash!"
Ding Shi's roar was like a storm, but it couldn't stop the advance of the grim reaper.
The first zombie hit the side of the car. It waved its hand numbly and smashed the back window of the car.
The broken glass scattered on the back seat. Everyone scrambled to squat on the ground and cried in fear.
"Put in more effort!" Doctor Zheng screamed. "Put in more effort!
Put in more effort! "
"Let's go, Brother Rong." Sinan murmured.
He took a deep breath and suddenly leaned out of the window. He shouted with all his strength, "Come on, Brother Rong!
Come on! "
In the driver's seat, Zhou Rong closed his eyes.
More and more zombies gathered. The windows on both sides were smashed. The zombies scrambled to reach into the car and scratched the heads of the survivors. Some zombies even grabbed the back ladder and tried to climb up to the roof to catch Ding Shi.
Zhou Rong opened his eyes and stepped on the accelerator.
The biochemical car slowly turned around in the sea of zombies. Rows of zombies were crushed under the car. It was like opening a bloody channel in the sea.
"Si Xiaonan, wait for me." Zhou Rong's concise and powerful voice came from the loudspeaker. He said, "Brother Rong will be back soon."
Sinan leaned on the window sill and watched the biochemical car slowly drive away until it became a small black dot in the sea of zombies.
"…" His lips moved slightly as if he wanted to say something. His voice was so soft that even he couldn't hear it.
"Okay."
The zombies who lost the biochemical car were bustling, but their confusion only lasted for a few seconds.
Then, the faint smell of blood in the air stimulated them. Following the source of the smell, the zombies found a new target.
"Roar!"
The first zombie began to hit the iron door of the dormitory corridor. Then, more and more zombies appeared. The iron door creaked under the pressure.
Chun Cao's face was pale, but when she spoke, her clear voice was calm. "I still have nine hundred bullets. How about you?"
"One thousand six hundred," Sinan Hui answered.
Chun Cao nodded. "Okay, you can use a dagger to kill yourself. You don't have to keep any bullets.
Remember to help me before you die. Just like how you helped the girl in T City. Be quick. "
Sinan smiled. "Okay."
The two of them looked at each other and smiled. They pulled out their guns and pointed downstairs at the same time.
The muzzle of the gun spewed fire. Assault Steps and submachine guns intersected and swept out a rain of bullets. A large number of zombies blocking the corridor fell down.
However, high-pressure firepower was limited. The zombies were infinite.
More and more zombies tirelessly rushed up. The sound of hitting became heavier and more urgent. Finally, after a few loud bangs, the iron door collapsed.
"Boom!"
Even the ground shook slightly. At the same time, a baby's loud cry came from behind them.
"Wah!"
"It's out! It's out!" Dr. Cheng cried with joy. He held the baby and cried. "It's finally out!"
The zombies downstairs squeezed into the corridor like a tide. Wave after wave, they rushed up the stairs.
Sinan and Chun Cao broke through the door at the same time. They shouted, "Get ready to retreat!!"
The industrial area was 30 kilometers south of the fertilizer plant.
The zombie tide hadn't spread here yet. There were only a few zombies wandering in the wasteland.
Zhou Rong stepped on the brakes. Twenty meters ahead, Guo Weixiang ran out of the armored vehicle like crazy. "Brother Rong!
Da Ding!
Where's Chun Cao?
Where's Sinan?
Where's our team?! "
He seemed to have a premonition. When he asked the last question, his voice was filled with disbelief and sorrow.
"They …" Before Ding Shi could answer, Zhou Rong patted him on the shoulder, opened the door, and jumped out. Then he patted Guo Weixiang on the shoulder.
"Brother Rong?" Guo Weixiang asked in surprise.
Zhou Rong carried the tactical backpack on one shoulder and the heavy machine gun on the other as he walked toward the highway. Among the abandoned cars that stretched as far as the eye could see, he chose a modified jeep, opened the door, and pushed the rotten car owner out.
Ding Shi scrambled out of the car. "Brother Rong, what are you doing?!"
"I'm going back," Zhou Rong said calmly.
He sat in the driver's seat and started the Jeep. He slowly turned around in the traffic and stopped in front of Ding Shi and Guo Weixiang, who were stunned.
"My team members are in the fertilizer factory," Zhou Rong said. "I promised Sinan that I would go back to pick them up."
Guo Weixiang shook his head. He couldn't say a word. Tears welled up in his eyes.
"If Yan Hao wakes up, let Yan Hao take over as the Sixth Squadron Leader of Unit 118.
If he doesn't wake up, you two can discuss the future. The serum must be sent to the South China Sea. "
"Find a place to cremate Yingjie and bring his ashes back to his wife and children."
"Brother Rong has been the Captain for so many years, but he didn't fight for many benefits for everyone. He didn't have the ability to lead everyone to success. In the end, everyone died one by one. Brother Rong is sorry."
Zhou Rong reached out from the car window and hugged Ding Shi and Guo Weixiang's heads. He smiled and said, "Don't cry. It's embarrassing, okay?
I hid two cigarettes under the driver's seat. If I don't come back, I'll leave them to you two. "
The survivors poked their heads out of the car window and looked at all this in confusion and sorrow.
If there were conditions, Zhou Rong could wash his face and change his clothes. He should be a handsome and unruly man, like a hero in a Hollywood blockbuster.
But this hero didn't have much of an image now. His field uniform was dirty, and the soles of his military boots were covered in dried blood. He hadn't washed his hair for a few days, and there was some stubble on his chin.
Zhou Rong waved at them. His movements were indescribably elegant.
"Tell that idiot Yan Hao that he lost again."
After that, he started the car. The modified Jeep roared all the way to the fertilizer factory, which was surrounded by zombies.
