Chapter 49: Escape from the Zombie Horde

Just as the four of them were checking for any survivors, a loud bang rang out as one of the people lying on the ground fired a shot.

"Ah!"

"Dazhu, are you okay?"

The shot hit Li Dazhu, but Officer Miao quickly fired back at the person on the ground.

"I'm fine, it just hit my arm!"

"Alright, everyone hide, leave these people to me!"

Hearing that Li Dazhu was only hit in the arm, Wang Bin breathed a sigh of relief. After ensuring everyone was hidden, he took out the rifle with the night vision scope from the System space.

Activating the night vision, the figures of the enemies appeared in the scope, and he quickly spotted three more figures moving slowly.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Three consecutive shots, and the three who were running suddenly stopped moving.

Wang Bin scanned the area with the night vision scope again, confirming there were no more living threats, then went to Li Dazhu's side.

Officer Miao and Guan Xiaoyue were already checking Li Dazhu's injury and found that it was indeed just a hit on the arm, with no life-threatening damage.

"Officer Miao, you probably know some first aid, right? Could you help bandage Dazhu's wound? Once we're safe, we'll figure out how to remove the bullet."

"Sure, bring out the medical kit!"

Wang Bin quickly handed the medical kit to Officer Miao. As she said, she knew some first aid techniques. She first cleaned Dazhu's wound and then used gauze to bandage it.

"Footsteps!"

Just as Officer Miao finished bandaging Dazhu's arm, chaotic footsteps echoed from the corridor.

"Captain, Captain, what's happening?"

"We encountered a Zombie King, hurry and help!"

Stolen from its original source, this story is not meant to be on Amazon; report any sightings.

Wang Bin, hearing it was the guards from the second floor, shouted to them.

Guan Xiaoyue and the others almost laughed when they heard Wang Bin mention a Zombie King. The excuse was absurd, but the people upstairs had no idea what was going on and quickly ran down.

"Kill them all!"

Due to the dim light, Wang Bin couldn't distinguish which ones were Captain Li's men, so he ordered to kill them all.

As the group approached, they hadn't even realized what was happening when Wang Bin and the others opened fire, leaving them in a pool of blood.

"Hurry and help me find the box. Once we get the stuff, we need to leave quickly!"

The three agreed, grabbing torches from the ground to search for the box. Once Wang Bin found it, he didn't bother checking its contents and stuffed it all into the System space.

"Let's go, get out of here!"

Once Wang Bin finished collecting the items, he immediately led the three towards the exit.

As they reached the passageway, they saw ten zombies rushing down from above.

"Open fire!"

At this point, they couldn't worry about attracting more zombies; they had to fight their way out to survive.

The four of them had good shooting skills, quickly taking down the zombies. As they burst through the passage entrance to the second basement level, they found zombies rushing towards them from all directions.

"Retreat quickly!"

Seeing the overwhelming number of zombies, Wang Bin hurriedly led the three towards the passage to the first floor.

The guards on the first basement level had heard the gunfire but didn't know what was happening below, so they hadn't come down. The gunfire had already attracted nearby zombies, which were now charging towards the passage entrance, forcing the guards to hold their ground against the zombies.

Wang Bin and the others fought their way back, quickly reaching the passage to the first basement level. By then, countless zombies were already following them, a terrifying black mass.

"Throw grenades!"

Wang Bin shouted, quickly tossing a grenade.

Boom! Boom!

Several explosions blew away the zombies at the front, but more zombies trampled over their fallen comrades to advance.

Continuing to fight their way back, Wang Bin and the others soon reached the entrance to the first basement level, where the guards were already battling the zombies. Due to the overwhelming number of zombies, two guards had already been killed.

Wang Bin and his team quickly fired at the zombie horde, clearing a path.

"Wang Bin, I need more ammo!"

"Brother Wang, me too!"

Officer Miao and the others quickly ran out of bullets. Hearing their calls, Wang Bin tossed a grenade to slow the zombies' advance and swiftly retrieved more ammo from the System space for the three.

As Guan Xiaoyue and the others reloaded, the reduced firepower allowed the zombies to close in.

Wang Bin, no longer concerned about conserving ammunition, threw grenade after grenade. As he tossed the fourth one, gunfire erupted behind him—Officer Miao was the first to reload and open fire.

"This place isn't safe, we need to break through!"

Seeing that the others had reloaded, Wang Bin quickly led them in a breakout.

With a barrage of gunfire, they finally reached the main entrance. The guards were long gone, having been killed by the charging zombies.

The zombies at the entrance were feasting on the fallen guards. Seeing Wang Bin and the others, they howled and charged.

Bang! Bang!

A fierce round of shooting cleared the entrance.

"Run, the zombies are catching up!"

Just as they cleared the entrance, the zombies were already closing in, forcing them to dash out.

However, they found that the gunfire had attracted zombies from all around.

"Get in the van!"

At this point, Wang Bin couldn't hold back anymore and quickly brought out the Jinbei van from the System space.

"Dazhu, what are you waiting for? Get in!"

"Ah, okay!"

Seeing the sudden appearance of the Jinbei van, Li Dazhu was startled. Already in the passenger seat, Officer Miao shouted at him. Realizing the urgency, Li Dazhu quickly opened the door and jumped in.

As soon as Li Dazhu got in, Wang Bin floored the gas pedal, and the Jinbei van sped forward.

The road ahead was already filled with zombies. To ease Wang Bin's burden, Officer Miao and the others opened the windows and fired at the approaching zombies.

Some zombies that couldn't be shot in time were simply run over by Wang Bin.

Bang! Bang!

Before long, the windshield was covered with zombie blood and flesh, obscuring much of the view, causing Wang Bin to nearly crash into nearby debris several times.

"Let me drive!"

Officer Miao, noticing Wang Bin's poor driving skills, climbed over from the passenger seat and took the wheel.

The position was quite awkward, but Wang Bin didn't have time to think about it and quickly shifted to give her space.

Officer Miao's driving skills were indeed impressive. Although they hit many zombies along the way, there were no other incidents.

Soon, the van left the North Side of the City, speeding away.

Seeing the dense horde of zombies left behind, Wang Bin and the others leaned back in their seats, exhaling heavily. They were finally safe!
