Chapter 1319: The Little Girl in the Refugee Group
“Well… Actually, we’ve been targeted more than once or twice, you could say it happens all the time… But what I want to know now is, those Monsters that were cultivated, and those humans who escaped from the Central Region Camp… where are they?” Ling Mo touched his nose and asked.
The bat seemed a bit surprised by Ling Mo’s nonchalant attitude… but it still answered immediately, “Those Monsters are what we call Pioneer Warriors. I can mark their locations on the map. As for those humans… a group of them has already reached X City, not far from one of the large human settlements.”
“Falcon…”
Two days later, Falcon Camp, X City base.
The fence around a hospital had been reinforced into a tall Protective Wall, covered with cracks and blackened marks left by fire.
The wall was riddled with countless honeycomb-like holes, each one filled with the black muzzles of guns…
As the largest human Camp in the West, Falcon not only took in a large number of Survivors, but also gathered almost all kinds of resources from X City.
With the rapid construction backed by A City, the area from X City to A City had now become an impenetrable fortress.
It was also the area where countless Zombies kept swarming in…
Every so often, a burst of gunfire would erupt from a certain firepower point, accompanied by the howls of Zombies.
Including this hospital…
On the street in front of the hospital, over a thousand Zombies had gathered. But within fifty meters of the Protective Wall, there was a vacuum zone.
Over a hundred corpses were strewn across this area, while the living Zombies watched “in perfect unison” from fifty meters away.
But some Zombies would slowly walk into this area and then pounce on the corpses of their own kind, starting to tear and bite.
Very soon, blood began to splatter everywhere…
“Damn… Even though I see this every day, I still feel sick! I wish I could shoot every single one of them!” Behind the Protective Wall, a Machine Gunner spat fiercely on the ground and said.
Another Falcon Member beside him laughed and said, “Don’t waste bullets. If they want to eat corpses, let them eat. As long as they don’t try to come over, it’s fine. Besides, that’s the order. If we hit them too hard, these Zombies might go crazy.”
“This life really has no end in sight…” The Machine Gunner shook his head.
“It’s already not bad. At least you’re sitting here, not lying outside. Just think how painful it would be if you were struggling out there… Hm? Why does it look like something’s happening over there?” The Falcon Member looked through the scope, suddenly put away his smile, jumped up and shouted, “Everyone stay alert! Something’s up!”
“Wait… why are those Zombies turning around?” The Machine Gunner suddenly said in surprise.
“Could it be someone?”
“Are you kidding? Who would be out there now…”
At that moment, a burst of gunfire suddenly rang out from outside…
The hospital instantly fell silent. Two seconds later, the Falcon Member cursed to himself, “Shit, there really is someone!”
“Da-da-da…”
On top of an abandoned truck by the street, a man was holding a Submachine gun, wildly firing at the horde of Zombies charging at him.
He had an unlit cigarette in his mouth and a twisted smile on his face.
“Come on! Come on! Hahaha! Anan, just wait, you’ll be safe soon…”
After shooting down more than a dozen Zombies, some finally reached the bottom of the truck.
He lowered his gun and blew off several Zombies’ heads, then suddenly threw the Submachine gun aside, grabbed the utility pole next to the truck, and climbed up in a few swift moves. 𝐫ÁΝȫβΕŝ
As the mass of Zombies swarmed onto the truck and even started climbing the pole, he leapt into a window of the nearby building.
“Come on, keep coming!”
He stuck his head out and whistled at the Zombies, then looked deeply in a certain direction outside before turning and running into the building.
Almost the moment he ran in, several Zombies also jumped in from the utility pole…
And as the whistle sounded, in the building across the street, a few figures secretly peeked out from a window.
A girl only glanced out before immediately covering her mouth, “So many Zombies… An-Ge won’t make it out.”
In just a few seconds, the building was completely surrounded…
Unable to break into the Camp, even a single person could drive these Zombies mad.
Another man’s face showed pain, then he nodded, “But he’ll do his best to buy us time. We’ve already lost a lot of people getting here. This time, no matter what, we have to get in and deliver the message. Maybe if they’re prepared, they can avoid ending up like us…”
He sighed, then turned to look at two figures in the corner.
A girl wearing a hat was holding the hand of a little girl.
The man glanced at the little girl and said softly, “Sorry, Anan, your brother isn’t coming back. But he’s a good man, he helped all of us.”
The little girl squeezed the girl’s hand a little tighter, but her face showed no expression.
She just quietly watched these people…
Maybe feeling uncomfortable under the little girl’s gaze, the man looked away and said, “Alright, we promised Old An we’d get his sister in alive! According to his estimate, he can buy us about two minutes, so everyone get ready, move out immediately! Don’t waste a second!”
As everyone inside adjusted their breathing and checked their weapons, the girl suddenly whispered, “Sorry, Anan, I’ll protect you. No… even if I don’t, they won’t let you die. Not just because your brother gave his life for this, but because you’re the only one who was taken and survived. They just want to use you for better survival conditions, not just as a refugee… Sorry, I shouldn’t say this to you. It’s just…”
Anan looked up at her and suddenly smiled, “It’s okay, sister, you’ve already helped me a lot. My brother and I are both grateful to you. By the way, I remember you said you have a sister, right?”
“Yeah, I do.”
“Is she still alive?” Anan asked.
The girl nodded, “She’s alive.”
“How can you be so sure?” Anan asked, “When people I know disappear, I know they’re dead. Haven’t you not seen your sister for a while too?”
“Because…” The girl thought for a moment and gave a strange answer, “Maybe because of him. Anyway, I just feel she’s definitely not dead. Look, even I’m still alive. Oh, Qiuqiu…”
As she called out, another girl stepped out from the group. This girl had her hair in a ponytail, looked a bit pale, held a short dagger in her hand, and her eyes were full of determination. But when she looked at the little girl, a trace of pain appeared on her face… She moved her lips but said nothing.
“You and I will protect her together. We must get her in alive.” The girl looked up with a bright smile, but her face was covered in blood, and her lips were cracked and dry…
A dozen seconds later, they had already reached an Alley behind the street.
After making sure most of the Zombies had gathered near the building, they cautiously approached the hospital.
Although they occasionally ran into Zombies, they didn’t attract any attention.
Even so, the two or three hundred meters were still incredibly difficult for them…
“Roar!”
Amid the many Zombie howls, the sounds from inside the building could no longer be heard.
But as they passed by, Anan still looked up, peering through the gaps between the buildings at that building…
The man from before also noticed her reaction. He turned his head back and whispered, “I followed these people all the way from the Central Region to here, just for her… Whatever, as long as we get in, everything will be solved…”
