Chapter 839: Chapter 202: What is Lin Fan? I am the most powerful_5
Facing the onslaught of the fourth-stage ability wielder, Ji Qiuyue didn’t take any chances, aware of the flying knives that cut through the air with great force.
Instead of confronting them head-on, as the flying knives approached, Ji Qiuyue shifted her steps, narrowly avoiding them.
The knives changed direction, attacking her from behind. Ji Qiuyue’s crisis awareness was sharp, and she evaded them again. Her two evasions made Lu Hao frown, thinking this woman had some skill.
In everyone’s minds, they had thought this woman would be killed by Lu Hao’s first strike.
Unexpectedly, she was able to dodge.
This was beyond their expectations.
Ji Qiuyue realized it was difficult; evasion was not a solution, she should show some ability to deal with the knives.
Just as she was about to act.
A sudden voice came through.
"Lu Hao, you’re shameless to lay hands on a woman."
A brawny man, carrying an axe, walked into the hall.
"Pang Yuan."
The survivors watching the scene were surprised to see him, clearly not expecting that two fourth-stage ability Awakeners would appear.
Lu Hao withdrew the flying knives, "Pang Yuan, are you begging for a beating again, or did the last time not teach you a lesson?"
"Haha, that’s all you’ve got," Pang Yuan replied indifferently, "It’s not wrong what they say, Lin Fan from Sunshine Shelter in He City is truly not someone ordinary people can compare to. Everyone knows it, but you refuse to accept it. Do you really think your mere fourth-stage ability can match him? He can clean out a city’s zombies, you couldn’t catch up even if you split your pants chasing him."
The spectators held back their laughter.
Split your pants chasing?
It’s indeed a vivid image.
Lu Hao looked at Pang Yuan gloomily, then glanced at the other Awakeners around him, who were famous on the screen. He could definitely take these guys down.
But it would be a bit troublesome.
He didn’t say much, snorted coldly, and turned to leave without paying more attention.
Ji Qiuyue knew this brawny man was Pang Yuan, ranked second, a fourth-stage power Awakener.
"Miss, you’re really courageous. Are you interested in joining my team?" Pang Yuan extended an olive branch to Ji Qiuyue.
"Alright, I’ll join."
Ji Qiuyue agreed without hesitation.
She wanted to investigate who was behind this gathering place.
Zhu Lei regretted seeing Ji Qiuyue join Pang Yuan’s team. When she offended Lu Hao, he backed down. Not because he was cowardly, but because in that moment he quickly weighed the pros and cons in his mind and felt the relationship hadn’t reached the point of risking it.
Now it seemed he indeed missed an opportunity.
Oh well, oh well.
Missed is missed.
...
On the highway.
A car was driving, not very fast, just average.
There were many overturned cars on the highway; driving here was like navigating obstacles, and a moment of carelessness could lead to a collision.
Three survivors were in the car.
"Hurry up, hurry up, those zombies are catching up fast."
The survivor in the passenger seat kept glancing at the rear-view mirror, his face pale as he saw loads of zombies chasing behind.
The fastest runners were the speed-type zombies.
They crawled like spiders, dragging their parts on the ground.
"We’re very close to He City; if we keep going forward, we’ll surely reach He City."
The three survivors, having seen the contents of the Zombie Album, decided to come to He City after careful consideration despite the risks during the journey.
Staying in place might be safe for a short time, but long-term safety was uncertain.
The start of their journey went smoothly.
Even when zombies noticed and chased them, they drove fast, soon shaking them off. But who would have thought that near the He City highway, they’d be discovered by speed-type zombies, which ran fast, along with other zombies chasing behind.
More daunting were the numerous overturned vehicles.
It was impossible to reach maximum speed.
"Ah, watch out..."
With an exclamation.
The vehicle flipped on its side, skidding with the roof on the ground. The three survivors inside were dazed until the vehicle slowly stopped, still feeling dizzy as if the world was swirling.
"Are you alright?"
"Alright."
"I’m alright too."
The three crawled out of the car with difficulty, looking back to see the approaching zombies, frightening them to the point of spirit, with panic enveloping them.
"Run, the zombies are coming!"
They panted heavily, running forward.
The cars around were already wrecked, finding one that could drive was nearly impossible.
Their despair gradually engulfed them.
They knew the final outcome; human speed couldn’t outpace the pursuing zombies, they’d surely be caught. Yet even so, they wanted to try, a testament to their survival instinct.
Suddenly.
They stopped, staring blankly at the zombies blocking the road ahead.
Zombies ahead, pursuing zombies behind.
Finished.
Really finished.
The blocking zombies wore black clothes, each holding weapons—some with cleavers, some with iron rods, even some with dumbbells.
A truly bizarre combination, but to the three terrified survivors, they didn’t notice any problems with such peculiar outfits.
"We’re doomed."
"Can’t escape now."
"Yeah, we’re completely done for, it’s so frustrating. We were just a short distance from He City but found out ultimately we couldn’t reach there."
