Chapter 486: Chapter 486: The Strange Modified Car

“It short-circuited…”

Lian Ze covered his head, feeling helpless.

Who knew that the weather, which hadn’t seen rain in so long, would suddenly pour down, and now the circuit board he had installed in the car was short-circuiting due to water intrusion, clearly unable to move forward anymore.

No sooner had the car stopped than the zombies, braving the rain, pounced on them.

“I’ll go out and drive them away”

Moli looked outside and became anxious as well, afraid that the two of them would meet their end right there.

They had already traveled such a long distance smoothly; even if they were to die, she wanted Lian Ze to live a bit longer than her. What if someone came to rescue him?

“Your Special Ability is too weak, it’s not even worth researching, so don’t go out. Even if you get eaten by zombies, your blood will attract more of them.”

As Lian Ze spoke, he took out a toolbox, ready to try and see if he could fix the car.

“…”

Alright, Moli fell silent.

Her Water Element Ability was indeed weak. These past days, it had only been enough to maintain their living water supply, let alone go out and kill zombies. She had never killed a zombie before and would probably just end up as an easy meal for those outside!

But the rain got heavier, and Moli watched with her eyes wide open from inside the car as more vehicles hurried past them, yet not one stopped to offer help.

Thinking about it, in this kind of apocalypse, who would risk helping strangers? Back at the E City Base Research Institute where she was, she had seen many people send family and friends in for research in exchange for supplies.

Such people are the norm in the apocalypse, aren’t they?

“Ze, aren’t you worried at all?”

Moli looked at Lian Ze, who showed not a single sign of anxiety or fear, and asked. After spending several days together, she had naturally shifted from addressing him formally to informally, and Lian Ze seemed not to care in the slightest.

“What?”

Lian Ze, who had already removed a board from under his feet, asked without looking up.

“Aren’t you scared of being eaten by zombies?”

Moli continued to ask.

“Are you afraid of dying?”

Lian Ze finally lifted his head and looked at Moli.

“Of course, once you’re dead, there’s nothing left.”

Moli answered without hesitation. Wasn’t he afraid of dying?

“For me, dying is like sleeping; the difference is just like being awake, I can’t do research.”

Lian Ze said. For some reason, Moli felt that when Lian Ze said this, there was not a glimmer of light in his eyes.

“Being alive… there’s still a lot you can do, like…”

As Moli was speaking, bursts of fighting noises came from outside the window.

Someone had come to help them?!

Moli immediately became excited, even though Lian Ze didn’t show any signs of happiness or surprise.

“Ze, it seems like someone really is helping us! They are fighting the zombies outside for us!”

Moli exclaimed, overjoyed.

Lian Ze finally stood up to look outside, his curiosity piqued only by the abilities of those outside.

Outside the rain-washed tempered glass, several men moved swiftly, killing the zombies. Among them, a young-looking boy, one side of whose arm and hand in the rain unexpectedly revealed a stretch of metal arm, sparked a curious light in Lian Ze’s eyes, which had been dull a moment before.

“A Metal Element Ability User, a metal arm?! And he’s so powerful!”

Lian Ze had already pressed his face against the window, completely ignoring the terrifying zombie faces suddenly lunging at the glass from outside.

Outside the car window, Ban Xiaobo and a few others were braving the rain to fend off the zombies surrounding that strangely shaped car.

In fact, they weren’t really out to rescue anyone; as car enthusiasts and gearheads, they couldn’t help but stop upon seeing a strange yet seemingly cool car.

Seeing so many zombies around the car, they knew for sure that there were still living people inside.

“Brother Banzi, I’ll help you,”

Rong Yuan said with a smile. He could see the reluctance on their faces; after all, they had never seen such a car before.

“Great, if he’s a modification expert, I’d really like to exchange some tips,”

Ban Xiaobo said with a grin, flashing a set of white teeth before leaping out of the car the next second.

Gao Lei and the others with him followed suit, and the zombies that had still been surrounding that strange car instantly turned and lunged at the group of them.

Ban Xiaobo’s Wind Blade sliced through the curtain of rain, cleanly severing a zombie’s neck, and a head was sent flying instantly.

Although the rain somewhat restricted Gao Lei, a Fire Element Ability User, as long as his fireballs were fast enough, he was still able to accurately burn the zombies’ heads.

And the most formidable Rong Yuan faced a Mutated Zombie that suddenly leaped at him without any fear, engaging it in a fierce battle.

Not a single Metal Spike was wasted in the rain, and that Wind Element Mutated Zombie was nailed firmly to a nearby red brick wall!

Puchi!

A sweeping Metal Blade exquisitely cut off the zombie’s head.

The source of this c𝓸ntent is frёeweɓηovel.coɱ.

Then another Mutated Zombie lunged at Rong Yuan, who used his metal arm to block the attacking zombie.

Because the zombie’s speed was so fast, it actually bit down on Rong Yuan’s metal arm, but the next second Rong Yuan just laughed. A long, thin spike suddenly emerged from one side of the metal arm, piercing straight through the zombie’s mouth and out the back of its skull.

“He’s so amazing! I really want to research him!”

Lian Ze murmured, having never seen such a Special Ability User in E City.

“Ze, if you talk about people like that, you might get beaten up, right? We’re not in E City anymore,”

Moli advised earnestly from the side, but Lian Ze was completely absorbed in watching the battle outside and seemed not to hear her words at all.

Ah!

Suddenly, Moli felt that this situation was even more serious than their car breaking down here.

When they were in E City, Han Wan and Han Yizhou personally delivered his research subjects to Lian Ze, which was why he developed a character to want to research everything he saw, but now they were in S City…

The battle outside the car window lasted for about an hour, and the rain gradually came to a halt.

Some sunlight faintly broke through the post-rain sky, helping the two inside the car see the people outside even more clearly.

Bang!

Ban Xiaobo knocked a zombie, flying into the wall where a zombie killed by Rong Yuan lay with long Metal Spikes piercing through the zombie’s head, silencing it immediately.

“Hey, the rain’s stopped; let’s wrap this up,”

Xu Chao said, wiping the rain off his face.

And Moli then opened the car’s only door from the top of the vehicle.

Seeing such a design, Gao Lei’s eyes lit up with excitement, enchanted by the car’s unique design.

“Thank you so much, our car got waterlogged, and the electronics shorted out, so it broke down here. You saved us,”

Moli expressed her sincere gratitude.

The car’s electronics shorted out and broke down?

The few skilled in fixing cars were puzzled; how had they never heard of such a cause for a breakdown before?
