Apocalypse: Zombie Elimination Expert

Roar--

The zombies' hoarse cries were particularly jarring in the silent underground parking garage.

Along with that came a staggering gait, as if the soles of the feet were dragging and scraping against the ground.

The distance is getting closer and closer...

Chen Tuo's heart tightened. Seeing a small delivery truck parked in front of him, he immediately ducked down and crawled under the vehicle.

Seeing this, Jiang Xin and Zhang Shanhai followed suit and climbed inside without saying a word.

The three of them huddled together under the car, the pungent smell of engine oil constantly wafting into their nostrils.

Because the space was too cramped, and Chen Tuo and Zhang Shanhai were both quite large, Jiang Xin could only climb onto Chen Tuo's back, hanging on him like a sloth.

Her petite breasts pressed firmly against Chen Tuo's head, making it extremely difficult for him to even look up and glance outside.

If it weren't for the zombies nearby, he would have grabbed the girl and thrown her aside.

Snap... Snap...

The zombies were getting closer and closer, and were already right in front of the car.

Even though the garage was dark and gloomy, the three of them could see the situation clearly from such a close distance.

There were four zombies in total. Their exact appearance was not clear, but their shoes and pants were covered with mud and black blood. Even from several meters away, you could smell the stench.

Chen Tuo had previously told the group about the trigger points for zombies to track humans: sounds, smells, and even what they see can attract the attention of zombies.

Of course, the smell is mainly bloody, and unless you are very close to the zombie, it won't react.

Zhang Shanhai and Jiang Xin lay under the car, barely daring to breathe, staring intently outside.

The zombie approached the car, then slowly walked to the fire escape door on the first basement floor of Unit 2. It seemed to have lost its target, pausing for a while as if searching for the sound it had just caught.

Fortunately, although the bottom of the truck was crowded, it concealed their figures, and the smell of engine oil perfectly masked the three people's odors.

Time passed slowly, and the zombies returned to their wandering state, scattering aimlessly and gradually leaving the area...

"Phew... They're finally gone."

Jiang Xin breathed a sigh of relief.

Chen Tuo yanked her off his back and said in a low voice, "There's still an empty spot here, why are you pressing down on my head?"

Jiang Xin grinned sheepishly, "Hehe, I was just afraid that I might accidentally stick out a foot, so it's safer to lie on you..."

Chen Tuo was speechless, but too lazy to argue with her, and instead asked, "Where are your two cars located?"

The main purpose of coming to the underground parking garage was to find out the number of zombies down there, as well as where Zhang Shanhai and Jiang Xin's car was, so as to make a plan for their departure.

Otherwise, when it's time to leave, they won't even be able to find their car, and a group of them will be wandering around the garage like headless flies, getting trapped and killed by zombies down there—that would be a joke...

Zhang Shanhai immediately whispered, "My parking space is right below this building, about twenty meters to the left, it's very close."

"Can you find the location?" Chen Tuo asked again.

Zhang Shanhai nodded, "It's open every day, so even in the dark, we can find it accurately!"

"Okay." Chen Tuo looked at Jiang Xin. "And you?"

Jiang Xin fell silent, a hint of unease on her small face.

"You're not telling me you don't even know where you parked your own car?"

"I know, of course I know," Jiang Xin hurriedly explained. "But my car is parked quite far away, downstairs in a building a few buildings next door. It was easy to find when there were lights on, but now..."

"Why did you stop so far away?" Chen Tuo asked, utterly puzzled.

Jiang Xin looked dejected. "It's because parking spaces in the community are scarce. I wanted to buy a unit downstairs but couldn't. Now, even though it's only a few buildings away, it's one of the closest available parking spaces."

Chen Tuo was stunned. "How far?"

"It's not too far, usually it's about a two or three-minute walk, so it's quite... quite close."

"You think you can find it in the dark?"

"Probably, maybe, perhaps..."

"Alright, that's enough."

Chen Tuo took a deep breath, suppressing the anger that was about to rise within him.

Well, we can't entirely blame her for this.

"We have to find out the exact location of your car today. Otherwise, if we have to look for it on the day you leave, there will be too many variables. You two follow me and watch your step. Make sure you don't attract the attention of the zombies."

In the quiet environment of an underground parking garage, once a zombie attracts its attention, it often means that a large number of zombies from the surrounding area will swarm over, making it much more dangerous than on the surface.

Fortunately, the dim lighting also provides maximum concealment. By paying attention to your movements and using the surrounding cars as cover, you're unlikely to run into any trouble...

Zhang Shanhai and Jiang Xin nodded in succession. After Chen Tuo checked the surroundings again to make sure there were no zombies, he quickly climbed out.

Since both of their parking spaces were in the same direction, this saved them a lot of trouble.

The three of them, with their backs bent, crept forward step by step along the corner of the wall behind the parking space.

There were quite a few zombies along the way, but most of them were wandering around in the passageways outside.

The corner was full of cars, and the space was too narrow for zombies to squeeze in.

After driving for a short while, Zhang Shanhai patted Chen Tuo on the shoulder and nodded toward the rear of the car in front of him, indicating that his car had arrived.

Chen Tuo looked at it and saw a Volkswagen mid-size SUV. It was a decent size, big enough to hold a lot of things, and the chassis was high enough that it wouldn't get stuck on the gravel on the road.

After noting down his current location, he nodded, indicating that he would continue forward.

The three continued walking towards the cat ahead...

Jiang Xin's car was indeed parked far away, but fortunately the journey was relatively smooth.

Using the nearly full cars as cover, the three of them moved along the corner of the wall, avoiding the attention of all the zombies along the way.

Occasionally, a zombie would get stuck between two vehicles, but the three of them would wait for it to wander away before continuing forward, and there were no unexpected incidents.

After about ten minutes, without Jiang Xin saying a word, Chen Tuo knew they had arrived at their destination.

The Raptor's muscle car appearance is just too eye-catching.

Even in Platinum International, where luxury cars are not uncommon, it is still a truly rare find.

Its massive size and imposing appearance make it clearly visible even from a great distance, though it's just a silhouette.

Chen Tuo turned to look at Jiang Xin and pointed to the car in front.

Jiang Xin peeked out and nodded emphatically.

A complex expression appeared on Chen Tuo's face.

Zhang Shanhai chose a good parking space; it was not only right downstairs from the apartment building but also against the wall, making it almost risk-free to get in and drive away.

However, Jiangxin's parking space is not only far away, but it is also at the other end of the aisle, in the middle of the garage.

If you get on this vehicle, it'll be difficult to avoid alerting the zombies...

But it doesn't matter.

If you're quick enough, you can run over even if the zombies spot you.

Starting a car will also attract the attention of zombies; this is something that can never be avoided.

After observing his surroundings and memorizing the vehicle's location, Chen Tuo decided to turn back.

The underground parking garage was too dark and full of zombies. Although we hadn't encountered any danger along the way, we should try to stay in such places as little as possible.

With a gesture from Chen Tuo, the two immediately understood, turned around, and prepared to leave.

However, at the very moment he lifted his foot...

After all, it should come.

A zombie somehow slipped through the gap between the two cars and wandered to the corner of the wall.

The spot where it stood was right on the path the three of them would have to take to get back.

They were less than five steps apart!
