Chapter 6: Besieged

Lu Li got the answer he wanted. But his mind was in turmoil.

Since Chrissy is sure that she has injected the original version of the human body enhancer, why has she not improved her strength, physique, etc., in addition to being able to heal herself quickly?

In a state of distraction, Wren, who was not far away, suddenly spoke up, making him sober up.

"Here they are."

Lu Li and Chrissy turned their heads to look. In the distance, a group of zombies was slowly moving this way. Suddenly, the three of them immediately got up and continued to flee.

It didn't take long for the group of zombies behind him to be thrown away without a trace. The three of them just wanted to take a breath and rest for a while, when a large group of zombies appeared in front of them.

The road before and after is blocked by zombies.

Lu Li panicked. There are no forks in this village-level path. Towering mountain peaks on one side and lush grass on the other. An unknown number of zombies blocked the road at both ends. has fallen into a desperate situation.

"Rush out."

"Rush out."

Almost at the same time, Lu Li and Ren said the same sentence. Wren checked the bullets in the magazine and took the initiative to go ahead. Lu Li clenched the stick in his hand and followed without saying a word, and the two protected Chrissy in the middle and went straight to the group of zombies in front.

The number of zombies in this group is not large, only about seventy or eighty. But on this narrow path, it is very dense. After a while, the two sides met.

Two shots in succession, and the three zombies fell to the ground. A transparent hole appeared in the middle of their foreheads. For the first time, the M1911 high-power pistol has begun to appear. Wren killed the three zombies and was in good spirits. He stepped forward and kicked down the two zombies at the front. With a flick of his right hand, he blew the head of a zombie that pounced on the right.

Gunshots rang out one after another. The pistol of the M1911 model had a small magazine capacity, only seven rounds. Seven bullets is a drop in the bucket for seventy or eighty zombies.

That's when Rennes showed off his skills. Emptying a magazine, he pulled out a magazine with his left hand at his waist. At the same time, he kicked sideways and kicked an approaching zombie into the air, knocking over three or four zombies by the way. When he retracted his right leg, there was a thud and the bullet was loaded.

Seven more bullets.

Eight zombies fell. There was an open space in front. Wren quickly changed magazines as he strode forward. In less than a minute, more than 30 zombies had their heads blown off. The number of zombies has decreased dramatically.

He fought against the zombie group alone, and the path was more than four meters wide, so he was stunned to guard it tightly. Not a single zombie was able to break through the defenses and rush to the back.

When Lu Li saw this scene, he immediately dispelled the idea of stepping forward to help. God knows if Wren will make a mistake for a while, think of himself as a zombie, and get a headshot. He unconsciously suspected that Wren had also been injected with a human strengthener.

Otherwise, one person can single-handedly pick up seventy or eighty zombies? It's ridiculous, and it's not about strengthening humanity.

Suddenly, he saw hope for survival. Unexpectedly, at this time, Wren, who was showing great might, suddenly retreated in front of Chrissy. He stared at the dense group of zombies a few meters away, and urged hurriedly.

"Give me the stick."

Lu Li subconsciously handed the wooden stick in his hand to Wren. Wren took the stick and rushed forward again. He is very smart and does not aim at the heads of zombies, and pursues killing zombies. He just kept sweeping, and he managed to clear a passage from the zombie horde.

"Let's go."

Wren snorted and took the lead in opening the way. Chrissy and Lu Li hurriedly followed, following closely along a passage he had cleared.

The knocked down zombie struggled to reach out its arms covered with black tendons to the trio, trying to grab them. Lu Li protected Chrissy one by one, kicking the approaching zombies over.

The good times didn't last long, and Lu Li was still just an ordinary person after all. The body is limited after all. Before he had crossed ten meters, he was already panting from the endless stream of zombies, and his legs were as heavy as lead.

Finally, he revealed a flaw.

A zombie grabs Chrissy by the ankle. Chrissy screamed and fell to the ground. Before she could land, the zombies around her stretched out their arms to her.

"Damn."

Lu Li scolded secretly, rushed forward with an arrow step, and quickly kicked over the zombies that were close to Chrissy. But he was weak, and Rao tried his best, but he could only watch more and more zombies come to the two of them.

At this time, Chrissy was so frightened that her face was bloodless. She desperately tried to get up. But the zombie that grabbed her ankle was far more powerful than her, and couldn't break free at all.

"Wren, save Chrissy!"

Lu Li kicked over a zombie again, rushed up and stomped on the zombie hand that grabbed Chrissy's ankle. He quickly picked Chrissy up, and was about to hand Chrissy to Wren. Unexpectedly, Wren suddenly looked at him deeply.

"Protect her. She is very important to us all. ”

Before the words fell, Wren pushed hard, pushing Lu Li and Chrissy forward. The wooden stick in his hand quickly swept across the sides, picking up the zombies' arms one by one.

"Let's go."

Lu Li understood what Wren meant. He quickly grabbed Chrissy's hand, followed the passage that Wren had just cleared, and ran away. He didn't look back, there was only one thought left in his head.

The opportunity Wren risked his life could not be wasted.

After a while, the two escaped from the zombie group. The two had just escaped, and the zombies behind them had already blocked the passage again. Facing forty or fifty zombies, Wren finally couldn't hold on.

"Ah...... Fuck off, disgusting thing...... Yes...... Ahhhh......h

Chrissy heard the shouting and scolding from the zombie group behind her, and subconsciously looked back. She saw two zombies hanging on Wren, biting at his waist and abdomen. He picked up the wooden stick and struggled to knock the zombies away. But soon, he was overwhelmed by a horde of zombies.

Screams full of pain were endless, echoing on the empty country lanes, deeply irritating the eardrums of the two men.

"No...... Rennes! ”

Chrissy struggles to go back and save Wren. Lu Li's hand was like an iron tong, firmly grasping her. He couldn't help but drag Chrissy by the hand, threw her on his shoulder, and ran away with his legs.

Soon, the zombie horde was out of sight. Chrissy stared blankly at the end of the path, her eyes glazed away. Until Lu Li put her down to rest, her eyes were still glazed, as if her spirit was about to collapse.

Lu Li didn't come over to comfort him. In a depressed mood, he walked to the side and sat down, keeping his head down and not saying a word. He understood Chrissy's mood at the moment. In the future, he has experienced such pain more than once.

He was confident that Chrissy would be able to recover from the blow. If Chrissy can't even withstand this blow, she won't be able to return to the United States. It is even less likely that human fortifiers will be developed in the next two years.

After resting for a while, Lu Li recovered some of his body. He walked up to Chrissy and urged in a low voice, "It's time to go." Otherwise, it will be a waste of Rennes using his life to create a chance for us to escape. They won't give up. ”

Chrissy looked up. Lu Li saw peace in her eyes. She stood up and walked in front silently. Lu Li's heart was relieved and he followed closely.

Two hours later, the two stopped again. Lu Li's expression was solemn, looking at the roof faintly visible between the branches in the distance without saying a word. Even without an explanation, Chrissy understood the current predicament.

With a massive outbreak of the virus, it is not difficult to imagine that most of the people in the world have been killed and turned into zombies. Arguably the most dangerous places today are villages, towns, and cities where people live.

With a dangerous village in front and a large number of zombies in the back, it was obviously another desperate situation.

Just now, Wren sacrificed himself in exchange for the survival of the two. And now, is it possible to successfully escape from a village full of dangers and may encounter a large number of zombies at any time?

Chrissy doesn't believe in such miracles. She would rather believe that the zombies in the village in front of her had already set up the tableware, just waiting for herself and Lu Li to take the initiative to lie down on the table.

Lu Li also did not believe that he could escape through the village to the road. He looked left and right. This place is close to the entrance of the village, and there is no longer a choice, as before. Soon, he fixed his eyes on an abandoned warehouse halfway up the mountain.

This type of abandoned warehouse is common in the countryside, and they are all granaries built in the fifties and sixties. By now, these granaries have been abandoned and become borderlands.

He conferred with Chrissy for a while, and was the first to walk down the gravel path that led to the abandoned warehouse. After a while, the two came to the front of the warehouse. Lu Li checked it carefully, and although the big lock that locked the iron door was rusty and there were still a few traces of being smashed on it, it still firmly locked the iron door.

"Wait for me here."

Lu Li admonished and immediately climbed onto the iron gate. Turning over the iron door, he looked around uneasily. Fortunately, there are no zombies. Only then did he climb back up the iron door and help Chrissy to the warehouse.

With this big iron gate guarded, Chrissy was visibly relieved. She walked over to a relatively clean spot and sat down. After Lu Li walked to the side and sat down, the two looked at each other speechlessly.

Lu Li was very irritable and didn't know what to say. Until now, it had been four hours since he was injected with the original version of the human enhancer. Nothing but the ability to heal oneself is gained. Obviously, this original version of the human body enhancer did not have much effect on the human body.

What about the ability to heal quickly. After being scratched and bitten by a zombie, there is only one result - becoming a zombie.

The two of them lowered their heads in unison, each thinking about their own problems. Tranquility is restored in the warehouse. It was getting dark. Suddenly, the big iron door shook, which immediately alarmed the two of them.

"The zombies are coming after you so quickly?"

In their astonishment, one of them climbed over the iron gate and fell to the ground. When they saw Lu Li and Chrissy, the three of them stared at each other and were stunned.

Lu Li was the first to come back to his senses. He jumped up and stood in front of Chrissy, staring warily at the twenty-something villager. The latter reacted even more violently.

He looked left and right, picked up a broken shovel leaning against the wall, and stared at Lu Li and Chrissy with the same vigilance.

"You're a zombie?"

"You're the kind of manibalistic maniac?"

Lu Li and he spoke in unison. Hearing each other's words, both sides breathed a sigh of relief. The villager scratched his head embarrassedly and smiled innocently.

"I thought you were the kind of manibalistic maniac."

"We think the same as you."

Lu Li smiled and took the lead in introducing himself: "My name is Lu Li, and she is my friend, Chrissy." ”

"My name is Chen Song."

Chen Song grinned and put down the broken shovel in his hand. Lu Li smiled back, and was about to sit down to learn about the situation in the village in front of him. Unexpectedly, at this time, he suddenly felt a splitting headache, his body shook, and he was half-kneeling on the ground, his expression was very painful.

When Chrissy saw this, there was a hint of doubt in her eyes, and she got up and took a closer look. Chen Song was taken aback by Lu Li's sudden move. He hurriedly picked up the shovel he had just put down and stared at Lu Li vigilantly. Seeing that Chrissy was still standing behind Lu Li, he shouted loudly in a hurry.

"Miss, get out of him quickly. He's about to become one of those man-eating maniacs. ”

Chrissy didn't move. She raised her hand to make a silent gesture, frowned slightly, and stared at Lu Li's back in deep thought. After a while, a flash of joy flashed in her eyes, and she muttered to herself in a low voice.

"That's ...... so"
