Looking at the map, the industrial area where Lucas is currently located has a complex layout.

The current situation is that there is a zombie group following behind the bus, and the other two zombie groups are also moving towards this location.

Considering the time, it will take about ten minutes for the three zombie groups to converge.

Lucas is really feeling overwhelmed.

If he were to stop the bus now and enter a quiet state, what would be the reaction of the zombies and insects?

Would the bus be flattened if all the zombies and insects converged on it?

Bang—

Flesh flew everywhere.

The windshield of the bus was covered with minced meat and dark-colored blood.

It was densely scattered, creating a strong bloody sensation.

While Lucas was trying to come up with various ideas, the speed of the bus increased, charging like an iron monster into the zombie group.

At first, Lucas was concerned that the bus would get stuck in the zombie group and be unable to move, but now it seems that the situation is not so dire.

The increased speed and the reinforced shell of the bus made the zombies in front of it appear quite fragile.

Strictly speaking, the initial stage of zombies is just flesh and blood with slightly enhanced strength, similar to Lucas's physical condition.

However, the initial stage zombies have almost no intelligence, and their bodies cannot transmit pain signals.

This leads them to charge at the bus like a suicide squad, one after another.

While Lucas hadn't decided on the driving route, the entire bus, except for the roof, was almost completely covered in thick, dark red blood, turning into a blood-colored bus.

[Bus shell damaged by 1%]

The voice of the system suddenly sounded.

Lucas was taken aback.

Indeed, the bus's shell can still be damaged.

The sudden turn of events was like a bucket of cold water, calming Lucas's impatient state of mind to some extent.

It's not surprising that Lucas is not calm enough. After all, it has been eleven years since the apocalypse, and he has never encountered a situation like this before.

There was only one time, the one that caused his demise.

Trapped in a swarm of insects, torn apart by them.

The sound of metal being cut coming from the bus's roof made Lucas know without thinking that the insects were using their insect legs to cut through the roof.

Now that Lucas has calmed down, his eyes focused on the map on the panel, carefully analyzing the route.

"There's a crossroad 500 meters ahead."

"Set the autopilot first."

Having temporarily determined the route, Lucas set it on his watch for the bus and picked up his sniper rifle.

The middle part of the bus's roof is occupied by air conditioning equipment, and next to it is a metal sunroof that can be opened.

Lucas listened carefully to the cutting sound, quickly pinpointing the exact location of the insect on the roof.

Judging by the size of the insect, the position of the metal sunroof should correspond to the location of one or two of its insect legs.

If Lucas suddenly opens the sunroof and takes a shot, there could be two possible outcomes.

One is that the insect will retract its legs in surprise, and the other is that several legs will immediately retaliate.

At this moment, Lucas couldn't think of a better solution, so he could only take this risk.

While Lucas was contemplating, the bus's shell had already been damaged by 3%.

Time waits for no one, he must act now.

Without hesitation, Lucas opened a window and quickly threw out the supplies from the bus.

Bang—

A zombie that climbed directly onto the window was shot in the head by Lucas, followed by a bucket of purified water smashing onto the zombie, knocking it off the bus.

Another two minutes passed.

During this time, Lucas fired five shots, blowing off the heads of five zombies climbing through the window. He also threw out five buckets of purified water and seven or eight boxes of food, finally clearing a path inside the bus that led to the metal sunroof.

Bang—

He closed the window, and Lucas's heart ached.

"My food..."

"You damn things, taste my wrath!"

With anger over losing so many supplies, Lucas aimed his sniper rifle directly at the metal sunroof.

When the opening of the sunroof was wide enough for the barrel of the sniper rifle to extend through, Lucas decisively took a shot.

Boom—

The recoil of firing while holding the gun in mid-air was unusually strong.

Lucas was shaken, losing control of his body and crashing into the bus with force.

In that moment, Lucas felt like his bones were about to fall apart.

Shooting requires proper posture!

Just at that moment, when Lucas struggled to get up from the ground, the piercing scream of the insects on the roof sounded.

Lucas looked up at the metal sunroof and saw the repulsive, deformed mouth of the insects, along with their eerie and terrifying eyes.

"Damn it!"

"Die!"

Boom—

Lucas cursed loudly and sat directly on the floor of the bus, raising his sniper rifle with both hands and firing another shot.

Crack—

The deformed mouth and head of the insect were blown apart, and the green, viscous blood poured down on Lucas like a torrential rain.

Lucas wanted to curse, but as soon as he opened his mouth, the nauseating and tasteless green liquid flowed directly into it.

[Warning! Infection warning!]

[Infection in 9 seconds!]

[Infection in 8 seconds!]

[Infection in 7 seconds!]

[...]

The warning sound of the system suddenly rang, shocking Lucas, who panicked and felt a sense of urgency!

Ignoring the pain of his body about to fall apart and the disgust in his mouth, Lucas immediately took out a white pill from his pocket and swallowed it.

[Infection in 2 seconds!]

[Infection in 1 second!... Danger averted!]

Hearing the alarm being lifted, Lucas collapsed on the floor of the bus, gasping heavily through his nose, but not daring to open his mouth.

Fortunately, he had two immune pills!

Otherwise, he would have been infected by now...

Continuing to gasp heavily, Lucas couldn't just stay collapsed on the ground like that.

He sat up straight and opened the control panel.

The bus had already been driving automatically for over 300 meters, with about 200 meters remaining to the set destination.

The bus couldn't speed up because zombies kept jumping in front of it to block the way.

Using both hands to support the sniper rifle, Lucas struggled to stand up.

He glanced around and saw that the window was covered with a layer of sticky blood, making it impossible to see the outside of the bus.

Looking at the metal sunroof, Lucas simply didn't have the strength to close it.

He could only use the sniper rifle to poke out one of the insect's forelegs that had struggled its way into the bus through the blown-off head.

Lucas took a few steps and leaned against a window closer to the front of the bus, replacing the magazine of the sniper rifle. He was ready to open the window and continue fighting the insects.

Clang—

Clang—

Just at that moment, two loud noises came from the roof.

"Insects, damn it!"

Without even thinking, Lucas knew that two more insects had jumped onto the roof of the bus.

How can I fight like this!

Lucas was well aware that it was impossible for him to shoot with both hands suspended in the air now.

He couldn't even lift his arms.
