Chapter 98?Part 2: Save the apocalypse (4.2)
“Well brother, you’re really powerful! Then let’s pack things up and prepare to move out? Our destination should be the same. Yuan City, right? I heard that Yuan City has established an advanced scientific research group and is currently studying the extraterrestrial meteorite. It seems like they have already gained some results. There’s a lot of prospects, right? Although the distance isn’t that far, I always like to think of the worst case scenario. So I feel that whatever the case, we can’t stop just because we ran out of fuel. In case we run into a situation where we can’t stop and must escape, it would be very troublesome if the car suddenly ran out of fuel, right?”
Among the four cars, a fat middle-aged man stepped out of the family off road vehicle. His smile was just like a Buddha, but his footsteps were very steady and his body also looked like it had a lot of power. He wanted to reach out and pat Ren Zhu’s shoulder, but Ren Zhu gently rejected it. The man also wasn’t embarrassed by this.
“Hello little brother. My surname is Jin. Just call me Fatty Jin. Although I’m very fat, I’m actually a speed ability user and can run extremely fast. This time, leave the task of luring out the zombies to me. But little brother, you must help me at crucial moments. If I slip and fall, I don’t want to end up as meat in the zombie’s mouth.”
Ren Zhu looked at this fat man and then thought of his ability. He felt that the world really was big. There was nothing too bizarre. “Don’t worry. I should be able to make them stop for a moment.”
Fatty Jin smiled even brighter. He turned his head and looked over towards his family’s car: “Daughter, did you hear it? In a moment, dad and these few uncles are going to fight zombies. You and mum make something delicious for us when we return.”
Ren Zhu raised his eyes and looked over. A little girl about 9 years old was clinging to the window. She earnestly nodded: “Dad, jiayou!” She paused for a moment and then looked at Ren Zhu: “Uncle, jiayou.”
Ren Zhu smiled.
Because of Fatty Jin, the atmosphere became quite harmonious for a while. Gou Jian Fei drove the car over and the two youths greeted everyone sitting in the cars. When those people found that these two men were still young, and one of them also had a stature like a bear, their thoughts on the strength of Ren Zhu’s group increased a level. There was an 18 or 19 year old girl in the minivan who was constantly looking at them, and then took the initiative to talk to the two youths.
It’s a pity that at this moment, Mao Gan Cao and Gou Jian Fei were only thinking about how to show off their abilities in front of Dage. They didn’t have time to talk with the young lady.
“Everyone, please get ready. We’ll leave behind one person in each car to deal with emergencies. Everyone else can come out and help. The women and children can just hide in the cars. There’s so many of us, and we also have five ability users, so we should be able to clear out this gas station.” Liu Ming Qing gave the order. No one had any objections. Soon, the 20 people gathered have been allocated their positions — apart from the 5 drivers, 3 women and 2 children, the remaining 10 people were going to clean out the zombies in this medium sized gas station and the small supermarket inside.
On Ren Zhu’s side, Mao Gan Cao couldn’t beat Gou Jian Fei in the end and could only grind his teeth as he sat in the car clutching his knife. Fatty Jin looked at his teenage nephew who got out of the small family off road vehicle and lightly clucked his tongue: “Tsk. You should learn from the people in the minivan. Just drive. You can stay with your little cousin and aunt.”
As a result, the 13 year old youth rolled his eyes: “There are four of us in this car. If three of us stay behind, other people would feel dissatisfied. Don’t worry, I can take care of myself. I’m also very accurate with a slingshot.”
Fatty Jin suddenly felt that his nephew was a piece of rotten wood that couldn't be carved.
Compared with Fatty Jin’s side, the big family in the minivan seemed a little weak. They clearly had five people, but only one came down. Besides leaving behind that 18 or 19 year old girl, a middle aged aunt and a 13 year old youth, there was also a 22 or 23 year old youth who looked very robust. However, that youth was currently listening to music. He didn’t have any desire of getting out and taking action.
Some people scoffed a few times in dissatisfaction, but there were more people who were too lazy to care about them. After all, there was also an ability user in this car.
“Alright. Let’s introduce everyone’s abilities so that we can better coordinate with each other.” Liu Ming Qing said: “I have enhanced physical abilities. My eyesight is especially good. I can see the situation inside the gas station from here. That second level zombie is waiting for us inside. Also, my marksmanship is pretty good.”
“I am a speed ability user, so I can run pretty fast. Also, this fat body is much easier to attract zombies. I’m a natural bait.” Fatty Jin patted his stomach. Frankly speaking, he wasn’t that fat.
“Hello everyone, my name is Zhou Yun. I’m a wind ability user. My currently attack power isn’t that strong but I can create a faint barrier by manipulating the wind in the air, so that the zombies won’t be about to find us easily through scent.” Zhou Yun had her hair in a pony tail and she was wearing leather pants and a black T-shirt. She looked very energetic and youthful. “Also, I am Ming Qing’s girlfriend. I’m taken, so please don’t harass me.”
.
Liu Ming Qing looked speechlessly at his girlfriend while everyone else laughed.
The last one to talk was the only person who got out of the minivan. This person’s expression seemed a little gloomy. He also looked like he was in his twenties: “Hu Hong. Power ability user.”
After everyone finished talking, Ren Zhu pointed at himself: “My name is Ren Zhu, the zhu in bamboo. I’ve learnt some combat skills and have good physical fitness. I also have a psychic ability which can interfere with the actions of the zombies. I still haven’t figured out any other abilities, but my current one should be sufficient.”
After the five ability users finished introducing themselves, the remaining five all looked at them with envy, but they also weren’t particularly jealous. This was because a few days ago, in the research broadcast announced by the Central Authorities, the top scientists have confirmed that as people lived longer and longer, everyone’s bodies would also slowly adapt and resist the virus. If it reaches a critical point, it may trigger abilities to awaken. So even if they currently didn’t have any abilities, so long as they lived well and worked hard, they still had a chance in the future.
“Alright. We have pretty much cleaned up all the zombies in the surroundings. The sky is already getting dark. We must deal with the zombies before the light completely fades and then spend the night in the gas station. The five of you will wait at the entrance of the diner while the five of us will go in and lead the second level zombie out. When it comes out, there will also be other zombies. When that time comes, the five of you will directly deal with the zombies at the entrance of the diner. You must not let them run out and attract more zombies. The five of us will then handle the second level zombie in the diner as fast as possible.” Liu Ming Qing said. Everyone nodded.
“Let’s move!”
Thus, Fatty Jin took the lead. Zhou Yun used her ability to create a light breeze and provide some shielding for Fatty Jin, while Liu Ming Qing closely watched the situation inside the diner, a black sniper rifle ready in his hand. Hu Hong followed them with a big metal hammer covered in thorns, and Ren Zhu walked beside him.
The diner in the gas station wasn’t small at all. After the five of them entered the diner, because they were very fast, they had already reached the middle of the diner when the zombies finally reacted. At a glance, the five of them saw the extremely large second level zombie. When they came in, that zombie had already rapidly turned its head to look at them. Fatty Jin took a deep breath and picked up a metal plate. He threw it at the zombie, hitting it right in the head.
Zombie: “……”
Fatty Jin shouted: “Come and fight me!”
Zombie: “……” Fine. Laozi will eat you!!
The second level zombie howled and charged towards Fatty Jin. That extremely fast speed caused Fatty Jin’s pupils to contract. He turned around and ran like a kite let loose.
Ren Zhu and the others also saw the speed of the zombie. The four of them stood back to back, each in charge of a direction. Hu Hong was responsible for dealing with the zombies that pounced over, Zhou Yun used her wind blades to disperse the fire balls, and Liu Ming Qing was holding his rifle, ready to burst that second level zombie with a head shot.
However, the speed of that second level zombie was really too fast. It also consciously avoided Liu Ming Qing’s aim. Seeing that the second level zombie was getting closer and closer to Fatty Jin, Ren Zhu finally shouted: “Stand still!”
Fatty Jin’s figure stopped and he stood still out of reflex. When he finally reacted, he then sucked in a cold breath. As soon as he turned around, he saw the second level zombie that was almost within reach rooted to the spot. That standing posture actually looked even more stable than his?!
Bang! Bang!
Although he could settle the zombie with one shot, Liu Ming Qing still felt that he should add another just in case. But after he successfully blew open the second level zombie’s head, he only then looked at it in disbelief. Finally, he looked at Ren Zhu with an even more unfathomable expression.
Fuck! If you say ‘stand still’ it stands still. Isn’t this psychic ability a little too fierce?!
