Apocalypse: Zombie Elimination Expert

While a distance of six or seven meters may not be the absolute limit for human long jump, it far exceeds the long jump limit for most people.

Even Chen Tuo wasn't confident he could jump over it.

After all, he's a combat athlete, not a long jumper.

Not to mention Shu Yao and Jiang Xin.

Is there really no way out?

So they were trapped upstairs by zombies?

As the sounds of zombies below grew clearer, even Chen Tuo felt a sense of gloom settling over his heart.

"wrong!"

Zhang Shanhai suddenly remembered something and realized the intention behind Chen Tuo's question.

"The buildings are about six or seven meters apart, but there's a water tank near the edge, at least two or three meters high. If someone were to jump from there, who knows..."

"Hurry up!"

Before Zhang Shanhai could finish speaking, Chen Tuo slung his suitcase over his shoulder and rushed upstairs.

The three hurriedly followed...

Rushing up twenty floors in one go is definitely a heart and lung-bursting experience, not to mention carrying large bags of supplies.

Except for Chen Tuo, who was slightly better but was panting heavily, the other three, including Zhang Shanhai, were all close to their limit.

Jiang Xin was practically dragged up there; she had barely climbed to the rooftop when she collapsed onto the ground, on the verge of exhaustion…

Chen Tuo saw the water tank on the roof.

Just as Zhang Shanhai had said, the distance between the two apartment buildings was about six or seven meters.

Even with a running start, it would be impossible to jump over the fence if it were in the way.

But the situation is different with the water storage tank on the side.

With a height of over two meters and a length and width exceeding three meters, it is just the right size to help one run.

The water tank is on the other side, and there's no obstruction to the direction you can jump across. This height is enough to make up for half the distance.

The only downside might be that you might fall down.

But compared to life, this is nothing at all.

"Get up now!"

Chen Tuo pulled Jiang Xin up.

The zombies were faster than expected.

Less than two minutes later, sounds could be heard coming from the hallway again.

According to estimates, they had at least climbed to the twentieth floor by then.

Don't be fooled by the distance; within a minute, zombies will start popping up here...

"I'll jump first, then you throw the suitcase!"

After saying something to Zhang Shanhai, Chen Tuo climbed up the ladder to the top of the water tank, took the luggage bag, snakeskin bag, and hiking backpack, and threw them over forcefully.

Then, with a running start, he leaped forward.

boom!

Chen Tuo jumped over without serious injury, but the momentum made him lean forward, so he could only roll over to dissipate the impact.

Turning around, Zhang Shanhai had already climbed up and picked up his suitcase.

"Brother Chen Tuo, catch this!"

"Come!"

The suitcase was heavy, but fortunately Zhang Shanhai was strong enough to lift it, spin it around twice, and then throw it with force.

Chen Tuo was completely bewildered by the suitcase hurtling towards him like a rock, but he still gritted his teeth and went to meet it.

Fortunately, the suitcase doesn't need to be completely caught; just gently smooth it down to reduce the impact and prevent it from directly contacting the ground.

bang bang bang-

The box brushed against Chen Tuo, dissipating most of its momentum before crashing to the ground.

Despite the scratches from the bumps, the box was sturdy enough that it didn't fall apart on the spot.

The same method was then used on the remaining two suitcases.

Except for one that was cracked, the rest were intact, but even the cracked one did not affect its use in the short term.

Zhang Shanhai prepared to cover the rear, letting Shu Yao and Jiang Xin jump first.

Although the two women trembled at the sight of the abyss below, they didn't give up. They gritted their teeth and jumped over one after another.

With Chen Tuo there to provide backup, he was not injured.

Zhang Shanhai needs no introduction. As a seasoned rock climber, he is even more adept at these kinds of tricks than Chen Tuo.

With a jump and a roll, he landed safely.

Without any delay, the four of them grabbed their backpacks and suitcases and headed towards the fire escape of Unit 1.

Just as they were about to crawl inside, the fire door of Unit 2 was smashed open, and two zombies emerged from it...

……

Since the building in Unit 1 had not been searched, Chen Tuo did not know if there were zombies in the fire escape. He could only pull out his short axe and rush ahead, not daring to stop while focusing all his attention on the corridor.

Fortunately, the journey was uneventful. Although we heard the sounds of zombies coming from the fire doors of several floors, we did not hear any zombie sounds in the stairwells.

After arriving at the basement level, the four slowed down.

"key?"

Jiang Xin took out the Raptor car keys from her bag and handed them to Chen Tuo.

"Old Zhang, put everything in your car later. Remember to keep an eye on me. As soon as I start the engine, you need to follow immediately. Don't get distracted. Once I start the engine, it'll be a full sprint. There's no time for you to catch up slowly!"

Zhang Shanhai nodded, his expression serious. "Don't worry, Brother Chen Tuo, I wouldn't joke around with my own life."

"good!"

Chen Tuo opened the fire door, looked around, and seeing no zombies nearby, slowly walked out.

Thanks to the fact that Unit 1 is closer, unlike Unit 2 which requires walking 20 or 30 meters, Lao Zhang's car is parked downstairs in Unit 1.

I hadn't walked more than two steps when I saw the familiar Volkswagen SUV.

As if by divine intervention, there were no zombies around, and the nearest one was at least seven or eight cars away.

Old Zhang pressed the key, and the car lights flashed.

All four of them paused for a moment.

Fortunately, the zombies didn't react much to the flashing lights. Only a few turned around in the distance, but they only glanced at them before turning back. They didn't go berserk as if they had seen living people.

Chen Tuo and Zhang Shanhai gently opened the car door and squatted down to put the luggage on it one by one.

Once the back seats and trunk were completely filled, their burdens were finally removed.

Of course, Chen Tuo didn't put the backpack containing some supplies on it, just in case.

He was able to put most of his belongings in Zhang Shanhai's car because he trusted him and wasn't afraid that Zhang would run away with most of the supplies.

Besides, even if he ran away, he wouldn't survive.

The reason for leaving the hiking backpack was in case something happened to Zhang Shanhai; even if their car drove off the road, all the food and tools would be gone...

Zhang Shanhai quietly climbed into the driver's seat.

Chen Tuo, along with Shu Yao and Jiang Xin, began to make their way along the corner of the wall towards the location of the raptor...

I must say, today was a lucky day.

Compared to the first time I went down into the underground parking garage, this time I encountered fewer zombies.

The three of them easily found the direction the raptor was facing, and they only needed to cross one more passage to climb into the car.

The only difficulty is that there are four or five zombies wandering around in this passageway.

There are at least twenty more nearby.

Speed ​​is essential; otherwise, accidents are likely to occur.

Just as Chen Tuo raised three fingers, preparing to rush out with the two women...

boom!

A loud crash came from the firebreak not far away, followed by the roars of zombies, and clumps of dark figures rushed out one after another.

The once peaceful underground parking garage instantly became incredibly noisy. The tranquility was shattered, and countless zombies wandering nearby were affected by the chain reaction, showing signs of going berserk.

Chen Tuo's face suddenly darkened. That zombie was really persistent, actually leading a horde of zombies to chase him up from the rooftop again.

What was initially a smooth process suddenly became much more difficult...

……
