Everyone else breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing this.
Jiang Chen, who had already used his Horcrux to kill the zombies behind the bushes and around the corner, smiled and said nothing. According to the usual plot, everyone was tense at first, their palms were sweating, and then they all breathed a sigh of relief when they found out it was a misunderstanding. Next, it was time for a heavy attack. They wouldn't get through this without losing one or two zombies.
However, all tricks are just paper tigers in the face of overwhelming strength. There is no zombie that can move within a radius of 20 meters!
Apart from being a little tired, everything else is fine.
With less than ten minutes remaining, the group, under Jiang Chen's cover, dealt with wave after wave of zombies waiting to ambush them, and finally arrived at the dock safely.
"There's a yacht too! That's great!" Mark spotted the small white yacht at a glance, floating quietly on the water, seemingly without any crew members on board.
The handsome middle-aged man frowned slightly. "Strange, why is there a yacht left alone at the dock? Didn't headquarters already evacuate? Yachts are quite expensive, why leave one alone?"
"Do you think... it might have been specially reserved for that person?" Evelyn lowered her voice, sounding somewhat mysterious. "Don't forget there's another guy on the island with a weird weapon!"
The fat old man chimed in, "That's right! We haven't seen their true face yet. Do you think it's possible that the Guardian Company is developing some kind of terrifying new weapon?"
"Then..." Han Sha suddenly had a thought, "Shouldn't we just sail the yacht away? Such a terrifying weapon, once we successfully retreat, might be even more terrifying than the threat posed by zombies in the future!"
The others remained silent for a moment, then realized that what she said seemed to make some sense.
Jiang Chen couldn't help but twitch his lips. "Sorry for the misunderstanding, everyone on this island except for the main characters has probably been wiped out..."
If we don't leave now, we'll probably get caught in the blast wave and a few more will die.
Fortunately, there were no overly sensitive or sympathetic members of the team. Realizing that time was running out and the horde of zombies was getting closer, they jumped onto the yacht at Jiang Chen's urging and prepared to leave without thinking twice.
"Who knows how to operate this thing?" After the fat old man was the last to climb up, he looked at the crowd standing on the deck and asked a very important question.
The others looked at each other, clearly realizing that from the security officer Kema to the female lead Hansa, they were all ordinary people who had never even touched such a high-end thing as a private yacht.
Evelyn and her father, along with the handsome uncle and Julia, were even more penniless, struggling to scrape together the money for their island trip and had never even seen a yacht.
"I'll go start it." Jiang Chen rubbed his throbbing temples and had no choice but to go to the cockpit and start the yacht.
"Suddenly..."
The yacht quickly started up, preparing to leave the dock and head out to the open sea, when suddenly a piercing cry for help came from not far away: "Help! Wait for me! Don't leave me behind! Help!"
Chapter Thirty-Two: Examining Wounds While Undressed
"It's Durul!" Mark's face hardened and he stood up abruptly, shooting the zombie that was about to catch up with him without hesitation.
The handsome uncle also fired a few shots with his machine gun, and Durul, who was still some distance from the dock, finally escaped unscathed.
"Huff... Wait for me!" After finally breaking through the encirclement, his sprained leg hurt even more, but the nearby yacht and powerful firepower rekindled Durul's hope.
At this moment, he deeply regretted shaking off these lunatics and acting alone. If he had continued to row with them, he would have already safely boarded the yacht and left this wretched place!
Fortunately, everything is still in time.
A beautiful girlfriend can be won back; after all, arguments and disagreements in the past weren't a big deal, and besides, the situation back then could be easily explained...
If you can get to the hospital before the wound worsens, there is definitely still hope with today's advanced medical technology!
The Guardian Company wouldn't want this to get out either. In any case, as long as you can live, live in the present and try your best to save yourself instead of waiting to die on the resort island, there will always be hope!
As Durul thought this, he seemed to feel even more energetic.
He pulled his coat tighter and limped toward the yacht.
The fat old man nudged his daughter's arm with his elbow, then pursed his lips and whispered, "If they're going to let that guy on board, we two have to stick together and keep a close eye on him. He can betray his teammates once, and he can betray them again. Remember, a traitor is never trustworthy!"
“I’m not stupid.” Evelyn, gun still in hand, stepped back and watched the other person’s every move warily.
Hansa saw Durul limping and stumbling toward the dock, and instantly recalled the scene she had "seen" earlier. She hurriedly shouted, "Ship the boat! Don't let him come aboard! He's been bitten by a zombie!"
Before the other person could even jump onto the deck, she raised her hand and fired a shot!
The bullet struck in front of Durul, sparking as it scraped against the bluestone slab, startling him into jumping back.
"Sasha, are you crazy?" He looked at his girlfriend with bloodshot eyes and disbelief. "What are you doing? You think I abandoned you? I didn't!"
I was just... worried there might be zombies on the first floor, and I wanted to get there in advance to help you out!
I'm afraid you'll be in danger of being attacked if you go up first!
I did do that. I even lured the zombies away from the lobby. You didn't notice any threat when you came out, right? That's because they chased after me!
Think about it, I couldn't just fire my gun in that situation. Otherwise, I wouldn't know what was going on outside and what if it attracted more zombies or the armed personnel on duty heard the commotion?
After careful consideration, I lured the zombies away first, which is why I was chased and faced constant danger, all for your safety!
Duruel almost believed what he was saying, tears welling up in his eyes. Standing three meters away, he confessed his love: "Sasha, I love you so much, how could I bear to leave you behind? But it is because I love you that I risked my own safety to lead the zombie horde away. I know you will be safe with them, so I will bear the suffering so that you can live well."
Before, when I was surrounded and chased by zombies, I thought I was going to die here and never see you again.
"I've held on until now only because I wanted to see you one last time. Sasha, how could you bear to shoot me?"
Jiang Chen in the cockpit had already prepared the Horcruxes, ready to kill Duruel if he dared to board the ship!
People who betray their teammates at crucial moments are absolutely untrustworthy, no matter how much you try to convince them, let alone in a horror zombie movie plot like this.
A guy without the protagonist's halo who leaves the group alone and betrays the female lead has a 90% chance of not surviving. Even if there's a 10% chance he survives, there's a 50% chance he'll bring disaster upon the protagonist group.
Most importantly, Hansa said he was bitten by a zombie.
This is the female lead, who seems to have a bug in her system and the ability to predict the future! Whether it's for personal revenge or not, it's definitely the right thing to do to trust her when you're on your last legs!
Mark looked conflicted, glancing at his girlfriend Hansa, whom he had just confessed his feelings to, and then at his ex-girlfriend, Durul, his rival. He was torn between duty and personal grudges, unsure of what to do.
"Do you think we should let him come up?" Julia asked softly, her face cupped in her hands as she sat next to Jiang Chen.
He countered, "Do you want him to come up?"
"Ah... On one hand, saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda, and on the other hand, Durul betrayed his teammates. I don't know either, and it's not up to me to decide."
Julia shrugged helplessly and said, "We don't have a captain or anything, so no one has the right to make this decision, right? After all, it involves the safety of other people, so it's probably only fair to vote by raising hands."
Jiang Chen pressed on, "If it were a vote by raising hands, would you agree or disagree?"
"I'll choose according to your preference!" She raised her small face with a serious expression. "You decide, and I will obey unconditionally!"
Hansa pointed her gun at Durul and they confronted each other;
Everyone else adopted an attitude of indifference, as if it were none of their business.
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh..." Jiang Chen started the yacht and slowly rowed forward.
Seeing this, Durul was sweating profusely. "You can't leave me behind!"
However, just as he took a step forward, another bullet struck the bluestone slab in front of him. At this critical moment, Han Sha's marksmanship was frighteningly accurate. She said coldly, "Take off your coat and let us see if you have any injuries."
His mind went blank for a moment.
What's wrong with this woman? She was perfectly normal before, so why is she acting so strangely and suddenly acting weird tonight?
"What exactly do you mean?!" Durul was both anxious and angry. "At such a crucial moment, you absolutely refuse to let me board the ship. Are you trying to dump me and hook up with some pretty boy...?"
Before he could finish speaking, Hansa fired another shot at the stone slab in front of his feet, startling Durul into retreating once more.
"Take off your clothes and let us see if you have any injuries!" Her cold voice was devoid of emotion. "If you have no wounds, it means there's no risk of infection, and I'll let you on the ship. Otherwise... do you want to become a zombie and drag others down with you?"
Mark, still feeling a little reluctant, thought about it and realized she made a good point, so he chimed in, "Time is of the essence. You can board the ship once you prove you're okay. For everyone's safety, it would be better if you verified it."
How could Durul possibly be willing to take off his clothes to examine his injuries?
He's feeling guilty!
When I was pounced on by the zombie, its long, black claw slashed my chest. It didn't hurt much, but it bled. Now, I don't know if it's because I'm covering it or if it's just my imagination, but the wound feels incredibly painful and itchy.
"Go ahead and take it off!" The handsome older man noticed the other man's hesitation and aimed his machine gun at him directly. "Duruel, take off your shirt!"
There were no more zombies threatening their lives, but the countdown ticked away like hammer blows on everyone's hearts.
Seeing this, Jiang Chen accelerated without hesitation, and the yacht left a trail on the dark sea like a white bird.
"No! Don't leave me!" Durul was flustered, but he tried to cover his coat with his hands.
But for some reason, with a "rip" sound, his clothes were suddenly torn open, revealing a wound on his chest from which thick black blood was flowing and the skin had turned bluish-gray and shriveled!
Chapter Thirty-Three: The Final Chapter (Can Be Slaughtered)
"Holy crap!" The fat old man saw it clearly with his flashlight and was so frightened that he kept patting the yacht. "Jiang Chen, go faster! That guy is going to turn into a zombie!"
The handsome older man was even more decisive; seeing that the wound had begun to mutate, he pulled the trigger of his machine gun without hesitation.
"Rat-a-tat-tat!" After a few shots, the last question that flashed through Durul's mind before he died, with a look of astonishment on his face, was—how did his coat suddenly tear?!
Jiang Chen cautiously used his Soul Weapon to circle the dock to ensure that no zombies would jump into the sea and cause pollution before he sped away from the resort island.
“Given the nature of Guardian Company, they’re very likely to set up an ambush along the coastline. To be on the safe side, let’s land on the remote coast where I was washed ashore years ago. I’ll show you the way!” The handsome older man leaned into the cockpit and drew a new route for him.
The yacht sped through the night sky and disappeared into the vast sea. Five minutes later, a violent explosion suddenly rang out on the resort island!
One deafening explosion after another followed. Those on the yacht who had escaped the blast stared in disbelief as the distant island was instantly engulfed in flames. But the explosions were clearly not over yet; tumbling debris crashed into the sea, the blinding light making it impossible to look directly at the surface.
"Chirp chirp chirp!"
As Jiang Chen was steering the yacht, trying to avoid the impact of the surging seawater, a white pom-pom suddenly jumped over from somewhere and landed on his shoulder, bouncing and leaping around him.
Jiang Chen: ∑('△`)? !
Never mind, I can't understand it. I'll wait for the translation. I wonder how the little white cat's tracking is going...
There is a skyscraper in the heart of a bustling city.
A pure black helicopter slowly landed on the rooftop helipad. The co-pilot got out, opened the door, and Bo Rui straightened his suit before getting down from the helicopter, looking refreshed and carrying a briefcase.
"Sir, the scheduled meeting is about to begin." The deputy led him the way while lowering his voice and said, "The participants are all high-ranking officers from the operation. Apart from the three attending in person, the rest will be participating via video conference."
Bo Rui nodded and stepped into the elevator, having already gone over his draft once more.
Upon entering the conference room, a staff member immediately came forward to check it and reminded everyone that the anti-peeping function was fully activated, ensuring the conference room was 100% safe and ready to begin.
He then placed the briefcase on his right and, as was customary, greeted the other bigwigs one by one.
“Everyone’s time is precious, so I’ll get straight to the point.” Bo Rui looked around at the assembled bigwigs and said loudly, “First of all, we all know that the resources in this world are limited.”
The world's population has grown too fast in recent years.
Limited resources should not be wasted by the lower classes, whose rapid population growth and rising living standards lead to environmental degradation, negatively impacting the progress of the entire world.
From a historical perspective, war is the best way to reduce population.
