Volume 1, The Beginning, Chapter 25. The Evacuation Begins
Without waiting for a reaction, a pair of red eyes flashed in front of Chen Zhilun, roaring with hunger and ready to eat, and from the open mouth, the viscous liquid dripped on Chen Zhilun's face.
A miserable howl resounded through the woods, but it did not wake up anyone who was sleeping in the refuge area. People turned over comfortably, muttered a few words, and continued to have the sweet dream before the end of the world.
After a long time, the terrifying gnawing sounds stopped, and there was no one in the woods, leaving only the smell of blood that had not yet dissipated. The monster, which had finally had a feast, licked the last bit of residue, and the sweetness in its mouth disappeared.
Too fast.
Originally, the high-power weapons in the local military region were just here to wander around, but he didn't expect that he could harvest so many prey today. Even if they didn't taste too fresh, it was already satisfying to fill his stomach.
The monster, still immersed in the joy of food, suddenly moved its ears and heard strange noises coming from around it. It raised its head and did not escape from the relaxed state for a while, but lowered its vigilance.
There was a flash of cold light, and the monster that was still stunned fell to the ground. As it fell, another figure gradually appeared.
That was Tang Ling who disappeared before.
Tang Ling picked up the flashlight on the ground. She wiped off the remaining blood on her head, revealing her intact forehead. As her bangs moved, a flash of red flashed in Tang Ling's eyes. She looked down at her miserable appearance.
, fell into chagrin at this moment.
"How should I explain this when I get back?"
While saying this, Tang Ling no longer stayed here and walked towards the army garrison in the distance.
But it was obvious that Tang Ling had underestimated her nature as a road warrior. When she returned to the same place for the third time, she stamped her feet in distress and squatted on the ground in frustration.
Li Jia and the others must be very anxious now that they have been out for so long.
"who!"
There was a light source shining in the woods around her. Tang Ling stood up warily, watching the light source getting closer and closer to her, and finally stood in front of her.
"Dr. Zhou?"
Tang Ling looked at the visitor in surprise. She didn't expect it to be Zhou Jian, her attending doctor.
Compared to Tang Ling's surprise, Zhou Jian was very calm at this time. He seemed to have guessed that Tang Ling would be here. He looked at Tang Ling who was in a mess in front of him and explained: "I saw two unknown people entering your ward at night.
You haven't come out since then. When I went in to check, you were gone. Your friends were sleeping soundly. They must have been drugged. You girl is really easy for me to find. Fortunately, you are fine now.
.”
Only then did Tang Ling realize that Zhou Jian's clothes were messy and had tree leaves stuck to them. His breathing was also very rapid at the moment, and his white beard was curling up and down, reflecting the exhaustion of its owner.
"You... came to me alone?" Tang Ling asked blankly.
"How is that possible?! How can an old man like me have the strength to run around? I called the soldiers who were protecting me to come with me. Okay, okay, stop talking nonsense, come back with me, I'm exhausted old man! You're wearing these clothes
Change it for me when you get back, it’s dirty, little girl, it should be clean and beautiful!”
Zhou Jian said, leading Tang Ling to join his group of soldiers. Apart from the initial conversation, Zhou Jian did not inquire about any other news.
Why is Tang Ling here? Where are the people who kidnapped her? What happened just now? There is blood everywhere?
Wait, he didn't ask at all.
This made Tang Ling a little strange.
"Doctor Zhou..."
"Call Grandpa Zhou."
Tang Ling was stunned by Zhou Jian's words and did not react.
"Also, I know what you want to say. Old man, I am old and I am only interested in things related to medical research. I don't need to worry about other things. Who doesn't have privacy? Don't you think so?"
Tang Ling felt warm in her heart when she saw Zhou Jian walking in front of her to look around and protect her even though she was out of breath. She replied softly: "Thank you, Grandpa Zhou."
Two days have passed since the night kidnapping incident. Tang Ling did not tell her partners about this incident, not wanting to increase their worries. After all, everything has been settled, right?
Gu Zhou came to see Tang Ling once during this period, and the two had a private conversation. Although they were still the same as usual afterwards, Gu Zhou's dark circles improved, and the gloom in his eyes dissipated and he recovered again.
As usual.
Life gradually stabilized, and Tang Ling, who had been lying in bed for two days, felt that her limbs were about to deteriorate if she continued to lie like this. During this period, she discussed with Li Jia and Luo Rui more than once whether she could go out for a walk, but they were all rejected.
The two men refused forcefully.
Injured children have no human rights.
Tang Ling lay paralyzed on the bed and was distressed.
At this time, outside the office of the top management of the base in C City, there was a rush of footsteps, and then the door of the office was forcefully pushed open, making a loud noise.
"Mayor! It's not good! Strange, a group of monsters, we found a large group of monsters outside the wall!" The little soldier who came to report the news could not take a few breaths, and reported to Zhao Jianhua, the mayor of City C, in a panic.
"What!" Zhao Jianhua, who was still sitting at the desk, stood up from his seat in shock. His large movements knocked over the chair, but he had no time to care and hurriedly followed the little soldier outside.
At this time, there was a noise and chaos outside the house, and people were moving everywhere. The patrol soldiers carrying guns in the city rushed towards the base wall. Ordinary residents who were still outside at this time also discovered the current abnormality, and were frightened and hurried back.
In his own residence, he hid in the house and peeked out with his head.
"Jianhua."
Above the wall, Major General Huo Yun, who was commanding the preparation team, saw Zhao Jianhua who was rushing over. The accompanying soldiers saluted him with a military salute and then accepted the instructions and left. Zhao Jianhua asked Huo Yun solemnly: "What is the situation now?"
?”
"The patrolling troops discovered a group of monsters, about ten kilometers away from us. It seems that the movement track is heading towards us."
"Damn it! There's no end to these beasts!"
Zhao Jianhua pressed his eyebrows in distress. Before the outbreak of the epidemic, he had received an unknown order from nowhere, instructing him to create this refuge base.
But at first, Zhao Jianhua didn't take it too seriously.
But who knew that things would become more serious little by little later.
In the beginning, it was just some unprovoked incidents of hurting people by some unpopular people in society. It is actually normal for some evil forces to occasionally hurt people in a city. But later, the number of casualties continued to increase, and hospitals of all sizes were piled up.
It was filled with patients who were innocently attacked, until there was no room for any more patients.
Immediately afterwards, news of malicious harm to people came from the hospital. The patients who were admitted began to attack the people around them. The people who were attacked would be the same as the previous patients. At first, they would have constant fever, vomiting and diarrhea, and their vital signs would begin to be weak.
Later, he became delirious and began to attack people randomly.
Everyone thought that this was just a new virus attack, and no one connected them with the zombies in biochemical movies. After all, this is the real world. How could there be such unnatural creatures as zombies?
However, just that night, many people fell, and together with the previous patients, they changed.
