The World Is Ending And I Am Surrounded By Female Zombies

Chapter 169 - 169 Knives And Shadows

169 Knives And Shadows

“One of ours returned not long ago. He had been severely wounded. He reported that White Hair’s team was currently trapped in the granary by Mutated Zombies.

“We cannot afford to lose his team!

“I’ve decided to lead a team personally to rescue our brothers!

“Who among you wants to go with me?

“You will be paid well.”

Derek Zhang looked at the dozen or so Awakened Ones in the room.

In fact, he did not plan to save White Hair.

He knew that White Hair had taken the initiative to lead the team to the granary for the sake of his prestige.

If he returned with a large amount of food, his popularity in the camp would instantly skyrocket, and he might even have been able to surpass Derek Zhang.

Fortunately, he ended up getting trapped.

Derek Zhang didn’t really want to save White Hair, but if he didn’t, it would affect his reputation.

He could only hope that White Hair would succumb to the trap soon.

If White Hair was dead by the time he arrived, and if he killed the Mutated Zombies to bring back food, he would be painted both the hero and the avenger.

“I’ll go!

“I’m new here, so I should help out.”

Wang Ran was the first to raise his hand.

White Hair had a slim chance of being his killer. If he died now, many questions would be left unanswered.

Derek Zhang nodded in satisfaction.

This newly-arrived rank-three had a good head on his shoulders. He could be trained to become the new second-in-command in the future.

“Blondie, you should remain here. We should keep a rank-three onsite.

“I need five more rank-ones and three rank-twos.

“Let’s save our boys!”

Derek Zhang raised his arm and roared.

His presence as a leader stood out.

“Boss, I’ll go with you!”

“I’ll go too!”

“Count me in!”

Several Awakened Ones were invigorated and volunteered.

Derek Zhang picked a few of his trusted aides.

“Everyone, get ready. We’ll gather in the parking lot in three minutes!”

After Derek Zhang finished speaking, he picked up a sledgehammer and walked out.

Wang Ran went to Huang Rong’s side.

“Watch the mother and son.

“No one is allowed to touch them but me, do you understand?”

Wang Ran ordered him.

“Don’t worry, sir!

“I’m a respected figure in the camp, I’ll definitely help you look after them!”

Huang Rong patted his chest.

Wang Ran nodded and followed the group out.

In the parking area in front of the football field, several vehicles were idling.

Wang Ran got on a random car and headed for the granary.

At the granary.

A white-haired man was observing the situation outside.

“White Hair, do you think Derek will come here personally?

“If he doesn’t come, our preparations would have been in vain.”

One of his underlings muttered.

“Don’t worry, I know Derek.

“He’s very strong, but he’s just as small-minded.

“My standing in the camp is gaining traction. He would not like that.

“If he’s given the opportunity to get rid of me, he’ll definitely not let it slip.

“If I die, he can go back and say that I died in the hands of zombies. No one can say anything.”

“Besides, there’s so much rice and flour here. It’ll be enough to feed the camp for a few months. He’ll definitely come,” the white-haired man said confidently.

White Hair knew Derek Zhang very well.

Previously, when Derek Zhang was still a rank-three Awakened, he was not confident that he could defeat White Hair.

Now that he had just only advanced, he would not wait any longer.

Rather than not knowing when the attempt on his life would come, it was better to stage an opportunity himself.

This time, he would lead the camp.

“White Hair, can we really defeat Derek?

“Would the flour really explode?”

A man in a tank top seemed to be in disbelief.

“You ignorant fool!

“When flour in the air reaches a certain concentration, they explode upon coming into contact with fire!

“It’s quite the blast!

“Go to the roof and see if they’re all in position.”

White Hair ordered.

The man in the tank top nodded and climbed up to the roof.

On the roof, seven or eight people were lying on their stomachs, each of them surrounded by several bags of flour.

Upon his signal, they would pour the flour into the warehouse through the hole in the roof.

The warehouse would be instantly filled with flour.

“Hey, is that a convoy?

“White Hair, I see cars!

“One kilometer away!”

The man in the tank top immediately noticed the convoy in the distance.

“Hurry up and lie down. Don’t expose yourself.

“The rest of you, cut open the bags of flour and get ready to dump them.

White Hair’s voice came from the walkie-talkie.

Everyone perked up.

They were all White Hair’s trusted aides. If they killed Derek here, they would all rise up in standing.

Downstairs, White Hair also quickly retreated to the back of the warehouse.

Everything was ready, and they were just waiting for Derek Zhang and the others to fall into their trap.

A few vehicles soon drove into the granary.

Wang Ran got out of the car and looked around. There were zombie corpses everywhere.

It looked like a terrible battle had taken place here.

But…

As a veteran who had killed many zombies, Wang Ran’s sharp senses could tell that the blood flowing out of most of the corpses here had already turned black.

Clearly, these bodies were not fresh.

White Hair was fighting hard here, while being surrounded?

Wang Ran was in dubious.

“Brothers, try not to split up and follow me.”

Derek Zhang carried the hammer and led his underlings to the warehouse.

Wang Ran was at the back of the group.

Just as he was about to enter the warehouse, Wang Ran suddenly caught a glimpse of a reflection above him.

It seemed to be… the reflection of a watch.

Someone was on the roof!

It was an ambush!

Wang Ran smiled and squatted down to pretend to tie his shoelaces.

The others wordlessly followed Derek Zhang into the warehouse.

As soon as they entered, a sandbag dropped down from the storage door, closing the sliding door.

At the same time, dozens of bags of flour were suddenly emptired down from the roof!

Derek Zhang and his men were instantly thrown off by the clouds of white dust in the darkness.

“F*ck! White Hair, you tricked me!”

Derek Zhang waved his hammer around randomly and accidentally killed one of his underlings.

“Derek, I don’t think you’re here to save me, right?

“Light them up!”

At White Hair’s command, the people on the roof immediately lit a few Molotov cocktails and threw them into the warehouse.

“BOOM!”

The entire warehouse’s roof and walls were instantly blown up, and a large amount of fire swept out!

Even the glass windows of the nearby buildings were shattered!

Even the ones who had tossed the cocktails were slightly injured, even though they had been prepared.

Wang Ran had been calmly hiding behind one of the cars, and nothing had happened to him.
