After the corpse fell to the ground, Li Ming took a dagger and dug into the head of the corpse. He found a pale red crystal nucleus, which proved the zombies were evolving.

Without the threat of evolved zombies, ordinary zombies were easier to clean up. The soldiers ran fast, fired their guns, and the zombies fell, one by one. Zhan Yun took some initiative on a zombie, and shot it in the head. He made the shot with such ease, he caught the attention of Li Ming.

“I’m a police officer.” Zhan Yun said plainly.

Li Ming nodded his head and understood Zhan Yun, who was a fellow public servant.

He was much more skilled than the other members of the team. Most of them had never touched a gun before the apocalypse, let alone tried shooting at moving targets. Their low hit rate was almost invisible. Even Su Ruizhe wasn’t very accurate, but if they replaced the bullets with pea bullets, they could take down a zombie even without hitting it in the head.

It took seven or eight minutes to shoot all the corpses. Li Ming asked several soldiers to collect the crystal nuclei. He took others to knock on the door.

“Open the door, please. We are the National Rescue Team. All the zombies have been killed. Please open the door and follow us out of here.”

When his voice fell, a row of heads popped out of the windows upstairs. They were all teenagers, with panic and hope in their eyes.

“It’s the army! The uncle is a soldier who came to save us!”

There was cheering, and a rush. Then, someone began to move everything that was blocking the door.

However, they did not know how many things they had used to block the door, and after several minutes, they still hadn’t finished. In desperation, Li Ming asked several soldiers to go in from the window and help them.

Entering the building, the soldiers were stunned. There were hundreds of students inside, all wearing their uniforms. Their hair was messy, and they looked thin, but they still had spirit. There also were more than ten adults who were moving things at the door, some of them looked like teachers, and some of them were dressed in chef’s clothes. They must have been the school kitchen’s staff.

The students’ desks were used to block the gate. They were piled up like a pyramid, and stacked in several layers. It took a long time to move them.

Fortunately, they worked together and eventually moved the desks away.

After a brief inquiry, they discovered that on the day the world ended, most of the students in Changyang Middle School were studying by themselves in the classroom at night. Several cooks and assistants had been cleaning up their things before they left. When they noticed something was wrong, they rushed out of the building with kitchen knives. Their fighting ability could not be underestimated. Several teachers on duty sacrificed themselves in order to protect the students. Fortunately, they had ensured their safety. Most of the students were safe. The food in the school canteen was enough to live on for a week. Relying on what they had in reserve, these people barely supported themselves until now. Their food supplies had been exhausted, and the rescue arrived just in time.

There were too many survivors to handle at once. Although they drove heavy military vehicles, they still couldn’t seat so many people. Li Ming had to use the radio to ask for help from other teams to come if they were nearby.

However, another team had also sent out a call for help, and found a small stronghold in a police station. The nearby zombies seemed to be attracted to the flesh and blood of the living people, and surrounded the police station. Visually, it was estimated that there were at least four or five hundred corpses. There was a siege of zombies on such a large scale, there would be no shortage of survivors afterward.

The problem was the students, they couldn’t leave the students there. Were they supposed to just leave them to rescue themselves? But they couldn’t take the students back and leave their comrades in arms at the critical moment of life and death!

Li Ming fell into a dilemma.

“We can divide our numbers and find some other cars to go to the police station.” Zhan Yun suddenly spoke up, “The road coming here had been cleared, so we shouldn’t encounter much trouble when we go back. If we can’t deal with it, we can also ask the team at the stadium for backup.”

There were a lot of cars on the road nowadays. Find an old car without an owner and, just like on TV, pulled out two wires and started it up.

Li Ming accepted his suggestion and ordered his troops to look for a car.

They didn’t know if the soldiers had been trained, but they quickly found two pickup trucks, a flatbed truck, and three vans. They could send almost thirty people to support the police station.

“Let’s go too. Give us a van.” There were so many lives on the line that no one with the ability to help could ignore it. They just couldn’t.

“All right, thank you!” Li Ming didn’t talk nonsense either. He approved and thanked them personally.

He’d heard about Zhan Yun’s team. There were three ability users in the team, and one of them had a very special power. He could use plants to make weapons with a special power for killing zombies.

They were willing to help with both evolved zombies and other zombies, as Li Ming wrote down the plan.

Li Ming divided the team into two parts. Half of them were responsible for escorting students and teachers from Changyang Middle School back to the stadium. The other half would drive to the police station.

The car drove along the road toward the police station. On the way, Su Ruizhe gave pea bullets to everyone on the team. It wasn’t that he didn’t want to share them with Li Ming, but he couldn’t explain where they had come from, or why there were so many. Anyway, with their cover, Li Ming would look after them.

They approached the police station, and heard a violent gunshot.

The gunfire came from the roof of a shop on the other side of the road. Opposite the police station was a row of single story shops. The soldiers advanced, fell back, and finally retreated to the roof of the shop.

The top of the building was about three meters high. The zombies had not mastered climbing. They could only gather on the ground and screech loudly up to the top of the building with their hands extended.

It was a secure setup. Although there were a lot of soldiers, they had the high ground. They could kill all of the zombies in no time.

However, there are two zombie dogs in the throng, and they were jumping desperately towards the roof. The dog was very good at jumping, and several times its front paws reached the edge of the roof. The situation was critical.

One of the zombie dogs was very large and black. It had a hole in the side of its abdomen. Its intestines and some viscera fell to the ground as it jumped, giving off the unpleasant stench of decomposition.

The other zombie dog was a Bordeaux bulldog. Although it was not as big as the one beside it, it was more muscular and stronger than the other. Its claws left deep gouges in the wall, showcasing what would happen if it grabbed people.

The soldiers on the roof kept firing on the two zombie dogs, and the bullets smashed against their heads, but their skulls were so hard that ordinary bullets couldn’t do anything.

Could it be an evolved zombie dog?!

Animals were better at fighting and evolving more quickly than humans. At the beginning of the apocalypse, Su Ruizhe had retrieved a crystal nucleus from the brain of a zombie dog.

Watching the zombie Bulldog jump up again, with its front paws on the edge of the roof, it seemed that it was only a matter of time. Zhan Yun braked and he leaned most of his body out of the window. He aimed at the head of the zombie dog, and pulled the trigger.

The turquoise pea bullet accurately hit the zombie dog’s head.

The zombie dog howled, and a large hole appeared in its head. Its body dropped out of the air.

Li Ming was shocked. The head of a zombie dog that could not be penetrated by continuous, concentrated shooting, was pierced easily by a shot from Zhan Yun. The leader of the regiment was right. These people really were very powerful.

When his companion fell, the second dog’s nose twitched twice, he regarded his companion’s body, and then bit him on the head.

Everyone was shocked at what they saw. They would have never expected that the zombie dog would eat his own kind. The zombie dog made a crisp clicking sound while chewing the skull of the zombie dog. The onlookers’ the scalps went numb.

Su Ruizhe knew that things were not going well. By the end of the later stages of the apocalypse, the zombies had devoured each other. The zombies could use the energy of the same kind of nucleus to evolve again. Looking at the shape of these two zombie dogs, he could see they had reached the primary stage of evolution. If the dog swallowed the nucleus of another zombie dog, his pea bullet might not be enough. He was looking at a serious threat.

Su Ruizhe raised his gun, aimed at the zombie dog and fired three shots in succession. He wasn’t as accurate as Zhan Yun. He could only aim for the body and kill it with the lethality of the pea bullets.

Hit, the zombie dog fell aside and was shot in the head by bullets of others on the roof, until it finally fell to the ground.
