Apocalypse: Zombie Elimination Expert

"How could this be...?"

After Shu Yao and Jiang Xin came to the window and saw the scene below, one covered her mouth in shock, and the other's eyes widened.

Zhang Shanhai stared blankly down below, completely dumbfounded.

If you disregard the safety of life, the scene below is absolutely shocking.

Hundreds of zombies poured into the apartment building like madmen. If you looked closely, you could feel the building shaking slightly. Even from a height of sixteen floors, you could hear their noisy roars.

"Why did they break into the apartment building? The glass doors downstairs are so sturdy, you couldn't even break them with a hammer, how could zombies have gotten in?"

Jiang Xin's voice trembled slightly; even she, who usually enjoyed watching the drama unfold, was now afraid.

After all, this event caused quite a stir...

Shu Yao quickly reassured them, "It's not a big problem. If the glass door is breached, there's still the fire door. That door is even sturdier and is chained up, so they shouldn't be able to get up there."

Chen Tuo turned and left with a sullen face.

He wasn't going to get his luggage; he was going to confirm something.

The loss of the apartment building is not as simple as it seems on the surface.

Although the glass door on the first floor is not bulletproof, it is still, as Jiang Xin said, very hard to break even with a knife or axe, thanks to its tempered glass material.

It's impossible for an ordinary zombie to open it.

It would take dozens or hundreds of them working together to push and shove it away to force it away.

But it's clear that an ordinary zombie couldn't possibly do that.

Moreover, even if the door was accidentally opened, it wouldn't be enough to allow so many zombies to file in.

The zombies on the ground of the entire community seemed to be completely attracted, rushing towards the building with a strong purpose.

From any perspective, the whole thing seems highly abnormal.

Chen Tuo had already guessed a possibility.

But he didn't want that to be the case...

Zhang Shanhai noticed Chen Tuo. "Hey? Brother Chen Tuo, where are you headed?"

But Chen Tuo didn't answer; instead, he walked straight out the door.

The three looked at each other in bewilderment and quickly gave chase.

Inside the fire escape route.

Without any light, the place was dimly lit, and even the air smelled faintly of mildew from years of stagnation.

thump—

The impact was very clear, accompanied by the rattling of the chains.

"They're... trying to break through the fire door?" Jiang Xin was startled again.

Shu Yao realized something was wrong. "Why do these zombies seem to be acting out of purpose? They shouldn't be this agitated if they haven't detected any living people, right?"

"What's attracting them?" Zhang Shanhai added.

Chen Tuo's expression grew increasingly grim.

My suspicions have now been confirmed.

"That's the work of that intelligent zombie."

"what?"

The three of them were stunned for a moment. "What? Intelligent zombies?"

"Let's get going!"

Chen Tuo didn't explain much; the fire door wouldn't last long.

Although the iron chains fastened to it were thick enough, the fire door was not made of indestructible material. Not to mention that it was not much harder than a tempered glass door, with so many zombies pushing and shoving, once the screws on both sides of the door frame loosened, the entire door would break down.

Not to mention that intelligent zombie; besides being intelligent, who knows if it has anything else special about it.

For example, great strength? High speed? Or some other ability...

Chen Tuo quickly turned around and went back to the room, stuck the axe and baseball bat into his backpack, slung it over his shoulder, crossed the two bags over his body, and carried a suitcase in his hand.

Zhang Shanhai also strapped his steel bars to his hiking backpack and carried the two snakeskin bags on either side of his shoulder.

The remaining two suitcases were each taken by Shu Yao and Jiang Xin...

The four of them worked quickly, moving everything up in less than ten seconds.

Before leaving, Chen Tuo glanced at the helmet but did not put it on.

In the narrow environment of a stairwell, where dirt and grime can easily accumulate, one can sacrifice some of their senses in exchange for head protection to avoid being attacked by zombies.

But in open areas like the outside world, the senses are too important, and the helmet does more harm than good.

Either spot the zombies early, or if you have the ability, quickly and easily eliminate them.

Either the enemy outnumbers them too much, and they realize they are outmatched, so they evade or hide in advance.

The helmet's function has become almost non-existent...

As soon as they stepped outside, Chen Tuo led the three of them downhill.

The fire door can hold for a while longer; we must rush into the garage and get into the car before it's broken down.

"Brother Tuo, Brother Tuo, what kind of intelligent zombie were you talking about?"

Throughout the process, Jiang Xin remained very curious about this issue.

Chen Tuo could only describe what he had just witnessed in the briefest possible terms.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Xin, Shu Yao, and even Zhang Shanhai were all deeply shocked, clearly unable to believe that such zombies still existed.

They had learned about evolved zombies from Chen Tuo, but they couldn't believe that there were zombies that observed and learned from humans and seemed to possess intelligence!

"So it was all its doing? Why would it do that?"

Chen Tuo was stunned. "Does a zombie need a reason to eat people?"

Realizing she had asked a stupid question, Jiang Xin immediately fell silent.

Chen Tuo plunged downwards, his mind replaying the scene from before...

This damn thing really has its eye on me.

Several times I looked at it, and it shrank back inside. But the last time it didn't hide or avoid me. When it came up, it was completely gone. I suppose it had already crept over here by then.

What method did this guy use to drive so many zombies mad, making them rush straight into the apartment building...?

Despite carrying large bags of supplies, the four of them moved quickly, reaching the tenth floor in less than thirty seconds.

At this rate, if the fire door holds up for just one more minute, it will be enough to allow the four people to rush to the underground parking garage.

But what you fear most is what happens.

Boom—

After a loud bang, the sound of a heavy object hitting the ground suddenly rang out, followed by the roars of countless zombies coming from downstairs.

Chen Tuo and the other three froze.

The fire door... is broken!

This speed is much faster than I imagined.

Hearing the roars and chaotic footsteps coming from below, Jiang Xin, Shu Yao, and Zhang Shanhai all panicked.

With the elevator rendered unusable, the fire escape became the only entrance and exit.

But now even this only entrance and exit is blocked by zombies!

The most pressing issue now is not how to get to the underground parking garage, but how to escape from here. In the current situation, it's no different from being trapped like a turtle in a jar.

If zombies can destroy the fire doors on the first floor, it means that the fire doors on the upper floors will not be able to stop them either, so hiding is of no use.

Should we learn from the painted-face character and commit suicide by jumping off a building?

This is more than ten stories high.

The consequences of jumping down might be worse than being bitten to death by zombies.

"What to do, what to do..."

The three of them were all panicking, but Chen Tuo's mind was racing, trying to find a second way out.

"Old Zhang!"

"Eh!"

Startled by the shout, Zhang Shanhai turned around quickly, his face turning pale.

"You live on the top floor, do you know how wide the distance is between units 1 and 2?"

"Huh? The distance between buildings..."

Zhang Shanhai quickly recalled, "It wasn't far, but it was at least big, about six or seven meters wide."

Upon hearing this answer, Chen Tuo's heart sank...
