The outside of the shelter is not an endless open space, after all, it used to be a small city, and even though most of the place is surrounded by the walls of the current shelter, there are still houses everywhere. hua.

These houses gave us a lot of cover and help.

The further we went, the more walking corpses we encountered, and when I looked at the captain who had been running ahead for so long, exhausted and out of breath, but still insisting on leading us forward, I felt as if she was using us like death squads.

We were all just ordinary girls who had been trained briefly, she had traveled so far with us, fought with so many teams of walking corpses, and everyone's bodies were all close to overdrafting, but she didn't mean to let us rest.

Finally, after a difficult battle with a dozen walking corpses, more and more people noticed the problem, and they didn't know if it was really unable to walk or a deliberate act of resistance, in short, after five minutes, everyone, including me and Hua Tian, stopped and rested in front of a house at the entrance of a street.

I really couldn't walk anymore, and when I sat down, I felt that the muscles up and down my body were shaking with pain, and Hua Tian simply lost his strength because his legs couldn't support his body and the whole person was lying on the ground.

Her head hit the ground with a thud, and she didn't have time to pay attention, so she just lay on the ground and closed her eyes to rest.

Seeing that we all stopped, the captain wanted to say something, but his mouth opened but he didn't make a sound, turned his head to look into the distance for a while, and then whispered, "Rest in place for half an hour." ”

No one had the strength to answer her words.

She was probably too tired from standing next to her for a while, and after looking around us, she walked over to me, who was sitting in the far corner.

As she sat down next to me, she noticed that I was staring at her and asked, "Can I sit here?" ”

I nodded busily: "Of course, of course." ”

As soon as she sat down, she leaned her head against the wall and stared at the sky in a daze. txt.

I had a chance to take a good look at her.

The grade of about 30 years old, at first glance, is a practitioner, usually this kind of person does not look old, so it is estimated that the real age should be around forty years old.

The skin was dark, the kind of tan that was visibly tanned, as I noticed that the wrists looming out under her clothes were white.

After the human body has experienced an overdraft, it will uncontrollably want to go to sleep, and at this time, your body is also extremely eager to sleep.

It's almost impossible to resist this by willpower alone.

This is a self-protective instinct of the body, but at this time it brings us mortal danger.

All of us, including the black female captain, fell into a groggy sleep.

Half an hour, we don't know if it's long past or just a few minutes.

In short, all of us were awakened by the heart-rending screams of several of the team members.

They screamed almost at the same time, mixed with screams of reluctance and fear, the most horrific nightmare I had heard in countless dreams.

Barely before my brain could be freed from sleep, my body had already flipped into the dagger that had fallen beside me and crawled up.

As soon as he was a little more conscious, he saw the picture that made his blood almost cold.

A large wave of walking corpses surrounded us sleeping in front of a lottery shop.

It's just that it just so happened that there were a few battery cars blocking my side with the captain, so the walking corpses did not rush up from our side, but brutally surrounded them from the other side, and the first few people were already surrounded by the walking corpses, and their screams brought each of us into a shivering nightmare after waking up.

After a second of sluggishness, two more people in front of him were pressed to the ground.

There is little distance between them and us.

The rest of the people finally reacted and began to use their broadswords to slash at the walking corpses that were close to them, but it was equivalent to a mantis arm blocking the car, which could only alleviate the situation in front of them for a few seconds.

When everyone's already small body is overdrawn again, or when everyone's defense has a slight flaw, the time for all of us will be dead.

At this moment, we are like a group of guinea pigs, tied to the operating table by a group of people with scalpels in their hands.

Just when everyone was starting to feel a little numb and desperate with fear, the captain suddenly pushed open the glass door of the lottery shop behind us and shouted at us, "Come in!! ”

Now everyone seemed to see hope.

We didn't know what it meant to support each other all the way, but this time we were surprisingly cooperative with each other, and we were unexpectedly tacit.

This is perhaps the most primitive instinctive response of human beings to survival.

Anyway, as we worked together to close the glass door of the lottery shop, everyone let out a long sigh almost at the same time.

But then, we had to get nervous again, because the lottery shop was basically a single room, and there was only a glass door between us and the hundreds of walking corpses outside.

We blocked all the stools and tables in the room to the door, but even the best

It is estimated that this gate will last for a maximum of ten minutes.

Time will only be shorter than guessed.

"What now?" One of the tall girls asked anxiously as she stared out the door.

From the very beginning, she was a relatively calm person.

But it's only relative.

"Are we going to die here? Is it that we are out of salvation today?? Another girl with freckles on her face was trembling in her voice, shrinking into the corner and stomping her feet, which should be her unique way of relieving tension.

There are less than 10 people left in our room at the moment.

Two of the seven or eight people had completely collapsed, squatting on the ground with their heads against the wall, crying helplessly but full of unwillingness.

Hua Tian has been standing beside me, not speaking, but his body is trembling slightly.

Giving her a reassuring look, I turned to the captain staring at the glass door, "Is there any good way to escape?" ”

One second, two seconds, and after a minute passed, the captain slowly spoke: "I can't escape, there is no way." ”

As soon as she said this, Hua Tian on the side obviously choked two steps.

The tall girl glanced at the captain twice, rushed up and pushed her violently: "What are you talking about?!! What does it mean that there is no way? What do you mean you can't escape?? You brought us here, and now it's like this, so that so many of us are going to die with you?? ”

The captain took two steps back, patted the place on his body that the girl had just pushed and said, "If you have the ability to get out alive from here, then you can also choose not to die." ”

"You!" The girl wanted to rush up.

The captain's face darkened: "If you don't have a shame again, I'll open the door, at least so that you can calm down early,"

When the girl heard this, she paused in her steps.

During their argument, I noticed that in the corner of the wall, there was a wooden ladder that was covered with thick dust.

After staring at the ladder twice, I suddenly thought of something, and quickly looked up, and at this sight, the whole person almost jumped up with excitement!

That's great!! There is salvation!!

In the middle of this room there is a small attic close to the ceiling on the first floor.

This kind of design used to be very common, such a façade house was rented by others for business, and many would choose to hang an attic in the house to store goods or sleep.

And in order not to take up too much space on the first floor, most of the ladders are movable.

I searched around carefully, and after determining the entrance to the attic, I ran to the corner of the wall and lifted the ladder to the bottom of the attic, and the wooden door that blocked the entrance was opened.

The others had already noticed my movements, and this time they were all stunned when they saw the entrance.

I climbed up the ladder first, and with the dagger in my hand that had not been pulled out, I went up first to check it, and when I was sure that there were no walking corpses inside, I immediately beckoned everyone below to come up.

Because I don't know if this attic can hold up to so many of us.

So in the gap between their climbs, I threw away all the goods that had been hoarded on them.

In the end, the two girls were so frightened that they kept squatting on the ground with their heads in their hands, and no matter how we called them, they didn't look back to answer us.
