Tan xinger didn't quite catch his last sentence as she watched him leave, feeling a bit scared.
Without her exclusive bodyguard by her side, the sense of zombie invasion intensified. Tan xinger dared not move, afraid of attracting the attention of the zombies.
From afar, she saw Gu Jingyong charging into the swarm of zombies. From Tan xinger's vantage point, she could see all his movements.
His speed was incredible, kicking away the zombies before they could even touch him.
The dagger sliced through the zombies' necks, blood splattering everywhere but not touching him at all.
Watching his figure, Tan xinger's initially smiling face gradually turned cold and indifferent. The obscure depths of her eyes concealed her thoughts.
The zombies rushed towards Gu Jingyong, all of them former students still wearing their school uniforms, now stained dark red. Their once youthful faces now twisted into terrifying grimaces.
With eyes full of malice, they reached out their hands, wanting to grab him.
Then, with sharp teeth, they would pierce his neck, tearing it open with a gentle bite, and savoring the fresh blood.
"Boom."
A zombie was kicked by Gu Jingyong, causing a domino effect, knocking down others. Their companions' blood splattered onto them, making them even more excited.
Their fish-like eyes gradually filled with bloodshot veins, blood mixed with yellow liquid flowing down, leaving deep marks on the zombies' faces.
"Filthy things."
Gu Jingyong looked at a drop of blood splattered onto his sleeve, then slowly turned to the nearby zombies.
The zombies' faces were covered with purple-blue streaks. After a roar, they rushed over.
Gu Jingyong stood still, unmoved. Tan xinger, watching the battle, was on the edge of her seat, nervously watching him, silently praying for him to be safe.
The deep color in Gu Jingyong's eyes was like the sky before dawn, the extreme black like ink splattering. If Tan xinger saw it, she would definitely choose to stay away from him.
"Danger" couldn't describe the look in his eyes. It seemed like his entire aura changed in an instant.
The air seemed to speed up invisibly. The zombie's hand about to grab him seemed to be bent, and with a loud sound, the zombie fell backward heavily.
In the blink of an eye, the dagger gleamed silver, and wherever it went, flesh and skin split.
"Oh my god."
Tan xinger was a bit far away to see clearly, but she could see one zombie after another falling. Gu Jingyong stood there unscathed, looking majestic like a victorious general.
Soon, Gu Jingyong successfully mounted the patrol motorcycle. Tan xinger excitedly sat down, waiting for him to come and pick her up.
Gu Jingyong rode the motorcycle, followed by a group of zombies behind him. If not for his calm demeanor, one would think he was walking his dog.
More and more zombies followed him, making Tan xinger feel overwhelmed. If she were to be caught by accident, she would be torn to shreds in an instant.
Gu Jingyong slipped past them, occasionally slowing down and making a turn. The zombies couldn't stop in time, and with their limited intelligence, they crashed into each other.
In the chaos, Gu Jingyong smoothly left without any obstacles. Tan xinger looked at his frosty face, devoid of any expression, and had reason to suspect he might be suffering from facial paralysis.
The scene of zombies trampling and attacking each other made Tan xinger unable to help but laugh, but then she quickly suppressed it.
Sorry, this laugh just nullified the good deed.
Adjusting her sitting position, Tan xinger hadn't had time to take a break when she found herself unable to laugh anymore.
Watching Gu Jingyong getting farther and farther away, Tan xinger finally panicked.
"Gu Jingyong!"
Her voice was loud, but Gu Jingyong seemed not to hear and rode in the opposite direction.
"Oh no."
Tan xinger's mind suddenly went blank. Nearby zombies seemed to smell her scent and were slowly moving towards her.
Once those two zombies came over, with her physique, she would be torn apart in an instant.
"Woo..."
Tan xinger wanted to cry, but no tears came. In her nervousness, she leaned over and almost fell off the wall.
But the scream of horror under shock completely exposed her position.
The two nearby zombies instantly locked onto her position, their pale eyes fixed on her, grunting as they moved closer.
"To be bitten directly by a zombie, or to desperately run away and then be bitten like an exhausted cow? "
Tan xinger gave herself a few seconds to think and decisively chose the third option.
So she used the balance beam basics she learned for three days in her childhood. With a fierce push, she stood up and ran on the one-foot-wide wall towards the alley.
"If anything happens, run along the alley."
Gu Jingyong's words echoed in her ears. Although she knew he wasn't obliged to care about her life or death, she would be really annoyed if he just left like this.
So Tan xinger cursed Gu Jingyong while running, not daring to move too much, otherwise she would really fall into the zombies' hands.
The zombies below were screaming, waving their hands trying to pull Tan xinger down.
Their terrifying faces made her feel fearful. Tan xinger dared not look too much and quickly reached the end of the wall.
Tan xinger looked at the alley a few meters away. It was the road leading to the old city, which she was very familiar with.
But there might be even greater threats inside the alley. Even if she was confident she could shake off the zombies, what if she was killed by them before entering the alley?
Tan xinger didn't dare to go down recklessly, but staying in a stalemate with the zombies wasn't a solution either. It would only attract more and more zombies.
"Oh goddess of luck, please bless me one more time."
Tan xinger clasped her hands together, determined to face death, and leaped down from the wall.
She hugged her head with both hands, rolling towards the alley entrance with the momentum.
Seeing her coming down, the zombies eagerly rushed over. Fortunately, Tan xinger's speed was fast enough. Just before the zombies could hit her, she rolled out.
"Thud."
Tan xinger lost control of her direction and crashed straight into the wall. A sharp pain shot through her back, and before she could stand up, she opened her eyes to meet the fierce gaze of a zombie.
"%&*￥#!"
Tan xinger was filled with helpless rage.
The next moment, a figure dashed into the alley, wearing a blue and white school uniform, with two grotesque zombies trailing behind.
"Don't chase me!"
Tan xinger was almost unable to run anymore. Unexpectedly, the zombies behind her, even if their legs were broken just now, were still stubbornly limping after her, biting at her relentlessly.
"Hoo—Hoo—"
Tan xinger's breath grew heavier, and she was on the verge of collapsing. Just before she fell, she managed to prop herself against the wall to avoid ending up as zombie food.
"Don't come any closer!"
Tan xinger looked at the twisted zombies, the one whose leg she had broken seemed particularly excited, its eyes filled with desire for her.
Seemingly enraged by being toyed with, that zombie, under Tan xinger's gaze, underwent an incredible transformation.
"Level up?"
Tan xinger watched as the zombie suddenly bent over, and then its limbs twisted as if a machine malfunctioned. She could even hear the sound of joints dislocating.
Tan xinger silently took a few steps back, only to see the zombie suddenly straighten up and open its mouth towards her.
"Damn, even if you've transformed, I advise you not to come any closer!"
Tan xinger looked at the zombie's mouth full of sharp teeth, teeth that had turned into animal-like fangs in just a few seconds.
Sharp and pointed, teeth half the length of a finger pushed the mouth open, revealing a crimson tongue swirling inside, hiding like tentacles.
"Help!"
Tan xinger's back turned cold, and she ran for her life.
"Ah!"
The zombie's eyes turned pure white, rolling around, and it leaped up after locking onto Tan xinger.
The shadow on the ground gradually enlarged. Tan xinger ran desperately and finally heard two sounds. She immediately stopped and looked back.
There was no sign of the zombies in the alley, just a new pit on the ground. From it came the sound of water, struggling, and zombie roars.
"Tsk, I told you not to come over, but you didn't listen!"
Leaning against the wall, Tan xinger breathed a sigh of relief, pounding her sore legs before continuing down the alley.
The alley, more than a meter wide, stretched north and south. The long passage was shaded by the small buildings on both sides, making it somewhat dim.
Tan xinger almost stuck to the wall as she moved forward, occasionally turning around in fear of more zombies catching up.
After scaring herself a few times, Tan xinger, exhausted, sat down against the wall, her eyes uncontrollably filled with tears, which fell to the ground as if they were free.
One string after another, soaking the moss on the green bricks, turning the bright green moss into dark green.
Tan xinger admired herself for still having the mood to analyze these things. Just as she was about to cry her heart out, her heart suddenly tightened.
Tan xinger stared at the moss on the ground, realizing that it wasn't her tears that had stained it but rather a shadow falling from the roof!
Straightening her back, Tan xinger stared at the shadow on the ground, silently praying not to be noticed.
But things didn't go as she wished. After the shadow moved, it fell to the ground the next moment.
Tan xinger's survival instinct erupted to its peak. Like a spring, she bounced out, so much so that the person behind her reached out but failed to grab her.
"Tan xinger!"
"Ah ah ah, let go of me!"
Something behind her caught up, and icy fingers pressed down on her shoulder. Even through the thin fabric, she could feel the chilling touch.
Tan xinger struggled frantically as if she were insane, trying to free herself, but she was firmly held in place, nowhere to escape.
"Tan xinger, calm down."
The cold voice came again, and Tan xinger, struggling, seemed to be switched off by a button, turning around in disbelief.
