Were zombies really coming?

Everyone was completely shocked as turned their eyes towards downstairs. They saw many swaying black shadows appearing outside the barbed wire used to isolate the danger.

These dark shadows were all dressed in rags, with dark green faces, skinny bodies, and terrifyingly ferocious looks.

Following the trend of the spreading fog, they approached the barbed barricades, step by step. Some had already reached the edge of the barbed wire, stretching out their rotten claws and scratching at the wire aimlessly. What's worse, some even opened their big mouths and started gnawing on the metal wire on the isolation net.

The thick fog was slowly approaching the warehouse, and the number of zombies hiding in the fog was also slowly increasing.

At first, there were only two or three, but gradually, the number began to grow to ten, fifteen, twenty...

"Damn it, why did so many zombies appear here all of a sudden!"

"Could it be that what Ryan said is true?"

Looking at the zombies in the depths of the fog and still approaching the isolation net, the faces of the people present changed again.

The apocalypse had lasted for so long that they had of course encountered zombies many times. In fact, almost everyone in the entire gathering point had experience fighting the undead before, but the appearance of so many zombies at once was extremely rare, and the atmosphere instantly became tense.

"There are many..." Now, even Wallace's expression changed, and he subconsciously glanced at Ryan who had no time to pay attention to him.

At this time, Ryan had already found a suitable vantage point and was also silently staring at the zombies that continued to pour in downstairs.

These damn creatures that walked crookedly and seem to have no offensive power were the biggest challenge facing humanity after the apocalypse.

Every zombie that perceived the human scent would become extremely crazy in an instant, and there were so many human survivors in the gathering point. With so much human scents concentrated in the air, it was likely that the bloodthirsty genes in the bodies of these zombies had already been ignited.

The zombies were continuously gathering, and their movements were getting faster and faster.

More than twenty undead came to the isolation net together. They stretched out their rotten claw-like hands, and shook the protective fence, while making growling roars.

Before long, the guardrails began to shake wildly because they could not withstand the damage from the zombies. Judging from the situation, they would fall down soon.

"Damn it, everyone, get ready. Grab any weapons you can find!" Finally, someone couldn't sit still anymore.

With a cry of fright, almost all the survivors began to look for weapons, grabbing steel pipes, sticks, machetes and other weapons in their hands, and gathered together again, looking at the zombies nervously.

The atmosphere was becoming more and more depressing.

Under the dark night, the thick fog was spreading faster. In the depths of the fog, there were more zombies walking crookedly, gradually approaching the survivors.

"There are too many of them. The isolation net won't hold up for long. We must spread out and guard all entrances to prevent the zombies from breaking in!" Wallace came to the crowd with a trepidation and began to arrange the defense. At the same time, he fixed his eyes on Ryan, who was acting alone, and whispered, "Ryan, you are also a member of this gathering point. You need to help out."

"What do you want me to do?" Ryan responded without even turning his head, his eyes still fixed on the downstairs.

"I want you to form a team with Martin, Lucas and two others. You'll be responsible for the defense of the back door. Once you see any zombies, your job is to eliminate them before they reach here. Is that clear?"

"No, the back door is too big to be guarded by few men, and there's no isolation net there at all. It is impossible for the four of them to guard it!" Without waiting for Ryan to give an answer, Yasmin immediately stood up and shook his head repeatedly.

"Impossible for them?" The corner of Wallace's mouth twitched slightly in anger, and he seemed to be somewhat dissatisfied with Yasmin's words. He turned around, looked at Ryan, and then said. "Were you not here when Ryan easily dislocated Lucas's arm? He's quite stronger than most here, and he has combat training. Same for the rest. So, they should be fine. Moreover, I distribute tasks according to everyone's abilities. Any more objections?"

Wallace had always been brooding over Ryan's miraculous survival and drastic change in personality. He really couldn't understand why this guy suddenly became like this. He made this designation deliberately to test the guy's ability.

But Yasmin didn't know what Wallace was thinking. She paused and was about to say something when she heard Ryan's cold response.

"Okay, we'll take care of the back door. The rest of you just need to guard the front door." After saying that, Ryan stood up silently and walked straight to the back door of the gathering point.

"What's wrong with this guy?"

"Why is he so cooperative this time?"

"Something strange is going on inside his mind"

Seeing Ryan agreed so readily, everyone was surprised.

Although the back door was narrow, it did not have barbed barricades or any other solid obstruction. So, asking Ryan to guard the back door was simply a death sentence if the zombies breached the defense.

Yasmin thought for a moment, and stomped her feet again, "Hey, Ryan, wait a minute, there is no barricades at the back door, it's too dangerous for you guys to go there by yourselves, why don't you just... I'll go with you."

Ryan, who had already walked halfway, stopped on his track, feeling a little surprised. In fact, he knew very well that Wallace arranged him to guard the back door in order to settle personal grudges with him, but he didn't care about it. After all, he was different now. As long as he didn't face a large number of zombies at the same time, self-protection would not be a big problem for him.

But he never thought that Yasmin would take the initiative to step forward at this time and offer to help him guard the back door. Wasn't ’t she Wallace’s girlfriend? Why was she trying to protect him?

Not to mention Ryan, even Wallace, who was arranging tasks, was visibly stunned. He looked at Yasmin in astonishment, "You want to go too?"

"Well, the back door is too dangerous to guard when it comes to zombies. Ryan and his men alone can't guard it. I can help at least a little bit." Yasmin acted decisively. He grabbed a fire axe and strode towards the back door.

"You can't. ...." Wallace's brows were knitted together in a big frown, but due to the situation, he had to swallow his words back. However, his anger towards Ryan became deeper. "Okay, you can join them."

In addition, there were more and more zombies outside the gathering point, and many zombies had begun to dismantle the isolation net. Everyone felt a tense and oppressive feeling, and no longer cared about the little conflict just now. They all took action and prepared for defense.

After a while, Ryan, led by Yasmin, arrived at the back door of the gathering point.

As soon as they arrived at the place, Yasmin began to prepare for defense. She closed all the air vents very skillfully and guarded the passage with an axe.

Ryan, who followed closely, looked at Yasmin's back with some suspicions.

Just as he was about to say something, Yasmin spoke first, "Ryan, can you tell me why you deliberately provoked Wallace?"

"Probably for leaving me behind?." Ryan was slightly surprised, then smiled and shook his head. He did intend to provoke Wallace in order to distance himself from the others and find a place with fewer people to complete the trial. After all, he didn't want to reveal his strength too early.

Yasmin certainly didn't know what he was thinking. Seeing that Ryan still looked nonchalant, she immediately came over aggressively and glared at him fiercely, "Are you trying to get yourself killed?. You know Wallace better than that. He will kill you if you continue doing that and we won't be able to do anything about it."

    This question made Ryan feel a little at a loss.Yasmin continued. "Tell me the truth, why do you hate Wallace so much? Is it because of me?""..." Ryan was speechless for a while. He looked at Yasmin's face, which was charmingly confident, and shook his head helplessly.Once upon a time, he did feel jealous because Yasmin and Wallace were too close. But that was a long time ago. Faced with such a cruel doomsday environment, Ryan no longer had the energy to care about these matters of love between men and women. It was too childish.Yasmin continued to ask, "Answer me, is it true or not?""It was never because of you...." Ryan responded. Although he felt helpless, he decided to make his words clear. However, before he could finish his words, other survivors following behind the two men exclaimed."Can't you guys talk about something serious? The zombies are coming soon, can't you see that?"Ryan stopped and immediately turned his gaze to the crack in the door.Within a few seconds, sev

At the same time, he swung the wooden rod and attacked from bottom to top. The sturdy wooden rod accurately hit the zombie's lower abdomen, piercing it cleanly.The second zombie pounced from the right, extending its slender and sharp claws, and headed straight for Ryan's chest.Ryan didn't even look at it. He freed his left hand, swung it

    Facing this dying guy, there was no mercy in Ryan's eyes.After all, Lucas was one of Wallace's top associates. A long time ago, he had bullied him many times by taking advantage of his power. Although Ryan chose to endure it at that time, it did not mean that he would forget those conflicts.Lucas was in great pain. A piece of his neck had been bitten off, and his body was covered with scratches of all sizes, but he did not die immediately. His trachea, exposed to the air, was still making labored "ho ho" sounds, as if he was trying hard to breathe, but the air cavity had been completely blocked by blood, and he could not even complete the simplest breathing action.Yasmin was still trying to hold his wound, applying first aid while encouraging him to hold on a little longer. She even turned her gaze to look at Ryan, whose momentum had greatly changed, and pleaded, "Ryan, can you come and help?""We can't save him. It's too late." Ryan didn't say more words. He just lowered his head a

At this moment, Yasmin finally understood why Ryan was so cold to her, and her expression became even more anxious. "It's not what you think. At that time, too many colleagues around me wanted to date me. I couldn't tell who was really thinking about me and who was doing it for my family's wealth. What's wrong with me being cautious?""You are right. How you treat the people around you is your own business." Ryan shook his head and said calmly, "Similarly, it is my right to treat our relationship in any way I want."Yasmin was complete

They were pressed to the ground, with the zombies taking pounds of flesh out of their bodies."Aaaargh……" The oldest man didn't even have time to finish screaming before his neck was bitten off by the zombies.

After hearing Wallace's words, Ryan immediately sneered in his heart, but his face remained expressionless and he shook his head to indicate that he had no other choice.In fact, there were some ways, but Ryan was not willing to reveal his true intentions, and it was even more impossible for him to discuss strategy with his nemesis.His attitude also aroused Wallace's impatience, but facing such a dangerous situation, Wallace still resisted the urge to attack him and said in a gloomy way, "We are in a dire situation. It's time to unite and fight off the enemy together. I know you've always been unhappy with me, but no matter how big our conflict is, we have to wait until everyone is safe before resolving it. Don't you agree?"As expected of Wallace, he labeled Ryan as a narrow-minded person. Many of the survivors watching also gave Ryan urging looks."Ryan, tell us what you think. Our lives are at stake here.""Don't be to

    For Yasmin, an ordinary person, sneak attacking a level 2 zombie was simply an impossible task. It was more of a suicide mission.After all, she was not a deviant like Wallace. Once the sneak attack failed and the zombie leader reacted, all that awaits Yasmin would be utter destruction and death.But Yasmin didn't care about how everyone was looking at her. Instead, she nodded and insisted, "Yes, I want to go too!"In the eyes of others, participating in Wallace and Ryan’s plan was almost equivalent to frantically looking for death, but in Yasmin’s eyes, perhaps this was the only chance for her to survive.After all, Yasmin had witnessed Ryan's abilities with her own eyes. Although he might not be as good as Wallace, he was not far behind. Following behind them was equivalent to having two deviants protecting her at the same time. Her chances of survival were definitely greater than if she stayed behind."Hey, Yasmin, do you want to reconsider your decision? It's quite dangerous where

    There were simply too many zombies.As time went by, more and more dark shadows with twisted bodies were staggering towards the warehouse.Looking through the thick fog, Ryan looked at the ugly figures in front of him, his heart beating very fast.It now seemed that the number of zombies targeting the gathering point was far more than a hundred. If this continued, even if two more primary deviants come, they would die of exhaustion in the ongoing battle.Wallace also thought of this, his heart trembled violently, and he looked at Ryan and said, "We can't wait any longer. These ordinary zombies should have been drawn by the second-level zombie. Over time, the entire factory area would be occupied by zombies. By then, even those with special abilities would be unable to escape."Although Wallace has a very bad temper and arrogant personality, he was not so stupid. He knew very well that in this environment, their only way out was to defeat the level two zombie.Otherwise, once the people

    The black blade light, like a streak of silk, instantly scattered vertically like a waterfall, completely covering a number of zombies.The zombies couldn't keep up with Ryan's movements at all. With a flash of the knife, their bodies and necks were separated. The powerful knife light chopped their bodies apart and turned them into a pile of disgusting and smelly rotten meat.Ryan exerted the powerful combat power of the six-star deviant to the limit. The sword light like a streak of obsidian silk, slashed from top to bottom. Every time the sword light cut through the air, it would cruelly dismember the enemy without leaving any gaps.In an instant, five zombies died one after another, and sticky blood splattered everywhere, dyeing the wall dark red.Ryan's expression remained unchanged. He didn't even look back.

    Here we go! Ryan's face darkened. He didn't even need to look back. He had already determined what was attacking him by the swooshing sound caused by his fist pressing the air.Only that giant zombie with an enormous size could have such momentum. In fact, having evolved to the level of a giant zombie, it had already developed a certain level of intelligence, and was quite wary of Ryan, who was a tough nut to crack.So after it appeared, it did not attack Ryan immediately, but relied on the oppressive power of its eyes to try to force away this extremely powerful human. As long as Ryan withdrew in time and no longer delayed its feeding, this guy would not take the initiative to cause trouble for Ryan.But as the battle broke out, Ryan stayed by the side of these humans, relying on the killing effect of his long sword to continuously block several attacks from the tide of zombies.With this man blocking the way, the zombies were unable to completely break through the team's defense lin

    In the entire team, Yolanda was undoubtedly the most aggressive one.She had just completed her evolution and did not have sufficient control over the energy in her body, and her combat power was far inferior to Ryan's. But nonetheless, she was the most capable fighter in the entire shelter except Ryan. When the zombies came aggressively, this woman with a strong character immediately showed the spirit of a big sister and stood at the front of the team with only a dagger. Her speed was extremely fast, not much slower than Ryan's, especially since she had mastered the energy of wind attribute, and was able to insert the energy into his dagger. Every time she swung the dagger, a sharp swooshing sound would be heard. It was extremely sharp, enough to easily cut off a monster's head.Correspondingly, Barrett, who was forced into a desperate situation, had to gather his remaining men, form a team, and break out in the direction where the number of zombies was relatively small.He initial

    The giant zombie just bit off the upper half of the food in one bite, and chewed it with its big mouth, making a crunching sound. A lot of blood flowed along the corners of its mouth, like a muddy stream, falling from mid-air and pouring on the faces and bodies of these people.The death troll ate very quickly. After just a few obstructions, it could not wait to stuff the lower half of their bodies into his belly. Its bloody gums acted like a meat grinder, chewing the fresh food into pieces again and again, and then swallowing it down with a look of enjoyment.With a gurgle, the man disappeared completely into its stomach.Apart from the bloodstains all over the ground and the blood foam that had stuck to the corners of the giant zombie's mouth, there was no other trace to prove that the man had ever existed."Ah... Monster, monster..."The crowd was instantly frightened, including Barrett, who had been very arrogant before. He was so scared that he passed himself and wished he could

    The onslaught was too fast. Ryan was unstoppable with full firepower, and with the help of the long sword, he was almost like a berserker. These ordinary zombies were chopped into pieces by the blade in an instant in just one go. The bloodthirsty killing made his eyes shone red, and his face became more and more gloomy. After a short charge of more than ten seconds, he actually cleared all the zombies outside the corridor and tore open a bloody path.This kind of combat performance was so fierce that he didn't seem like a human being at all.The people following behind him were also speechless with shock at his killing achievements. Yolanda towards with Ryan, looking at the body fragments lying on the ground, and couldn't help thinking: This guy...what level of deviant was he? Why was he so strong?Barrett's cheeks were also trembling. When he thought about how not long ago he had planned to take advantage of the number effect to take on Ryan, he suddenly felt extremely scared. Tha

    As Yolanda retreated, the other survivors guarding the shelter were soon faced with a massacre.That was a real massacre.The ventilation holes had been completely opened, and the number of zombies pouring in was far more than during the days when they besieged her.In less than ten seconds, at least twenty zombies had crawled in through the ventilation hole.The moment these filthy monsters landed, they pounced on the group of survivors who had no time to react and started a bloody massacre.The survivors who originally thought that they only needed to guard the passage and everything would be fine did not expect that so many zombies would appear behind them. Under the crazy killing and siege of these zombies, corpses soon appeared in front of them.Zombies had huge appetites for blood. Not only did they have no sense of pain, they also seem to have no idea what fullness was.More than twenty zombies attacked at the same time and soon tore the old man's body into pieces.

    In comparison, the old man whose lower abdomen was cut open was in a miserable state.His stomach was ripped open, his intestines were dragged out, blood gushed out immediately, and his internal organs also poured out, covering the entire ground. He watched as the zombies stuffed his intestines and internal organs into their mouths in big mouthfuls. The zombies chewed and pulled out the remaining intestines and organs.The severe pain made him feel like dying, and the fear of death forced him to make the most terrifying cry for help in his life. "Aaagrh... help, help me..."Sadly, most people were stuck in the passage ahead, and there was no time for his rescue.What's more, he was so seriously injured that even if someone mustered up the courage to rescue him, he was destined to die. So he fell on the ground howling, waving his hands weakly, and watching the zombies eat him alive.And more zombies came. Stimulated by the taste of blood, they became extremely ferocious and crazy.

    Faced with Yolanda and Barrett's blind confidence, Ryan frowned but did not say anything. His only thought now was to use the terrain to defend this place, preferably avoiding the attention of higher-level zombies and spending the night safely.However, things often do not develop as expected.Just as everyone blocked the passage and successfully intercepted the large number of zombies, an extremely terrifying and dull growl suddenly came from a certain area outside the supermarket.The voice was as deep as an old grizzly bear, carrying the breath of an extremely ferocious beast. As the growl spread, the ordinary zombies that poured into the passage became even crazier. They completely ignored the survivors' weapons and launched a collective suicidal charge.“Damn it…” Ryan also heard this deep growl, and his heart suddenly tightened, and the corners of his mouth twitched.The roar just now was definitely not from an ordinary zombie. It was a sound made by at least a level two creatur

    At this time, more ferocious growls and spine-chilling roars were heard from outside the shelter door, mixed with traces of banging on the barricades.After a while, the isolation net outside the supermarket completely collapsed, and then the zombies began to attack the gate, and even climbed along the outer wall of the supermarket, through the glass doors and windows, and continuously poured into the supermarket hall.Although the internal space of the supermarket was complicated, Yolanda had built several floor-to-ceiling windows on the outer wall in order to attract customers. Those ordinary glasses could not withstand the impact of the zombies. After a while, the sound of glass shattering resounded throughout the supermarket. Many windows were forcibly destroyed by zombies, and one zombie after another crawled in through them."Oh no! The outer barricades has been breached." Hearing the sound of windows shattering due to impact, Yolanda's face turned slightly pale. She immediatel
