Arms wrapped around Montagnier's shoulders tightened around his neck, dragging him backward.
His back pressed against the railing at the edge of the rooftop, his bones groaning.
"Uh...poof..."
Montagni clutched the arm of the infected man who was strangling him with one hand to catch his breath, while his other hand gripped the railing tightly in a final struggle. However, more and more infected men climbed up the human ladder, reaching out to try and get a share.
The infected grabbed Montani's body, tearing off pieces of his clothes mixed with chunks of bloody flesh.
Montani's eyes widened, and a painful howl made him loosen his grip on his teeth. The infected man's hand grabbed his tongue, pulling it through the air and leaving a bloody trail.
"—!!"
Unable to conjure spells, Old Felt scrambled away from the intense battle between Valery and the Stitches, dragging his aged body to Montagnier's side. He raised his ice axe and struck the infected on the head, but the speed at which he swung the axe was far slower than the infected's climbing speed.
Old Fei's hand, which was swinging the ice axe, froze. He saw Montagnier's eyes, which were filled with a twisted hatred, evidence of the annihilation of humanity.
"Old Fei, if you don't fix that broken bridge soon, the first person I bite after I become infected will be you."
—Old Fei's mind echoed with Montagnier's harsh words.
The next second, Montagnier released his grip on the railing and reached out to Old Felipe.
"Hara-wah-ah!!"
Montagni, his tongue ripped out, howled wildly. He grabbed old Fe's bony arm and dragged the old man toward the edge of the rooftop.
With his old and weak body, Lao Fei naturally had no strength to resist, and the two of them fell from the high building.
Throughout, Lao Fei remained silent, quietly watching the young man.
This is why Lao Fei didn't let this person go with Zoya.
If he were to leave with Zoya, Zoya would inevitably be betrayed by Montani at some point and meet a terrible end.
Old Fei closed his eyes, letting his body continue to fall.
Finally, a weary smile appeared on his lips.
"Live well, little girl."

In the dead of night, the bright moon hung in the sky, casting down an incredibly radiant light.
On the rooftop of the abandoned military and police building, Valery spat out the congealed blood and breathed heavily.
He hadn't drunk water in a long time, and he gave the last bit to Zoya. Now his throat felt burning, as if he were trying to swallow a ball of fire, but he just couldn't.
"Haah...haah..."
Valery leaned all his weight on the battering ram, barely managing to maintain his stance, but he no longer had the strength to swing it again.
He is tired.
Blood and energy continued to leak from the wound on his left arm. Without Montani's protection, he was simply unable to defend himself against the monster's attacks while simultaneously launching his own offensive. After enduring two powerful blows that were enough to break a shield, he felt several bones break and embed themselves deep into his internal organs.
Valery's fighting spirit seemed to have drained away with his blood. He witnessed Montagnier dragging Old Ferenc to his death, which dealt him an even greater blow on a spiritual level.
Whether it's good or bad luck, he's seen similar things happen quite often these days, and he's gotten used to it.
At least I won't feel as heartbroken or as guilty as I did the first time.
"It's an honor to meet you, Jaeger."
Valery looked toward his comrade-in-arms at the entrance of the passage, whose body was twitching incessantly, moving in fits and starts like a puppet.
Jaeger's arms had been devoured by the infected. Even as they pounced on him, tearing at his flesh, he didn't forget to remove his brass arm guards and knuckle dusters. He wanted to prevent himself from losing his humanity and becoming a bloodthirsty monster who might blow Valery's head off.
Jaeger had already blown the head off one of his good buddies; he didn't want to blow the head off another one.
This creates a stark contrast between Jaeger and Montagnier.
Even if it means death, a soldier or policeman will take another person down with him to hell.
A military policeman would rather die than implicate those who are still alive.
Not everyone is like Montagnier, nor is everyone like Jaeger.
Valery longed to light a cigarette, but unfortunately he had none on him; tobacco, an item that could alleviate fear, had been used up on the very first day of the disaster.
Even if he did, what could he do with just one arm? He couldn't even light a match.
"The farther away from here the better... Zoya."
Valery loosened his wrists, lifted the battering ram, which was several times heavier than usual, and carried it on his shoulder, his eyes blazing, ready to die.
Even if we can't defeat this Frankenstein's monster, he can still drag a few infected people down with him to their deaths; every one less infected person is a bonus.
The fewer monsters there are in this abandoned city, the higher Zoya's survival rate will be.
"Boom—! Boom—!"
A muffled, heavy sound came from afar. Valery suspected that he had lost too much blood and was bloating his ears, causing him to hallucinate.
But the sound grew closer and louder, like the heartbeat of some enormous creature, pounding violently.
"This is……"
Valery shook his dazed head and noticed that the eyes of the infected and the stitched monster were both looking in the same direction.
That was the source of the sound, and also a bright beam of light that pierced through the darkness.

Chernobog Upper Town, First Avenue.
"Damn, is it World War Z?!"
Lin Lu was speeding along on his Noah motorcycle when he couldn't help but swear.
"Doctor, what are you talking about?"
Zhuoya, nestled in Lin Lu's arms, peeked out her small head, the wind blowing her short hair.
To avoid being attacked by the infected, Lin Lu had Zoya sit near the front of the car while he sat in the back, driving with his back bent. However, due to the high speed of the Noah motorcycle, even though little Zoya was huddled between Lin Lu's arms, she was still being blown about by the wind.
Left with no other choice, she could only sit on Lin Lu's lap with her legs tightly wrapped around him.
The girl huddled up, burying her dusty face in his chest, her hands tightly wrapped around Lin Lu's waist.
"It's nothing, but kids shouldn't watch it, they won't be able to sleep at night if they do."
Lin Lu stared at the human centipede in the distance and shuddered for no reason. This wasn't Oripathy! This was a bio-virus! It was definitely the T-virus! Capcom, come out and take your beating!
However, this human ladder, which was more than 20 meters high, made Lin Lu's destination clear. He was originally worried about how to get up, but now the solution was delivered to him.
"Zoya, hold me tight, I'm about to sprint."
"Um……"
Zoya obediently pulled her head back in, clutching the hem of her trench coat that was about to slip out of her arms, and pressed her face tightly against it.
The roars of the infected and the monsters rang out continuously. Lin Lu's swaggering driving was undoubtedly a high-profile declaration of his existence, instantly making him a prime target.
The terrifying roars and incessant howls overlapped one after another, like messengers from hell sounding a welcoming horn to greet the two distinguished guests, almost as if they were asking Lin Lu if he wanted to upgrade to the luxurious eighteenth-level hell lava sea view room.
Zoya closed her eyes. She didn't feel scared at all. Instead, a strong sense of drowsiness washed over her, making her want to close her eyes and rest.
It's like being in this man's arms; even if the sky were to fall, he could hold it up while still having the energy to tell you lewd jokes.
It gives you a strong sense of security, making you want to rely on it.
“PRTS system,” Lin Lu said in a deep voice.
"ID 00000-00002, Access Permission -8." A mechanical female voice, devoid of any emotion, sounded from Lin Lu's mobile terminal. "Dr. Lin Lu, welcome. Your intentions have been determined based on biometric data. In addition, the system has detected that your mental state is poor and your blood sugar level is low. You need to rest."
Lin Lu raised an eyebrow, the black helmet reflecting the outlines of the infected and monsters around him.
Do you...do you think I have time to rest right now?
"PRTS will assist you in completing the following tasks, giving you sufficient time to replenish bioenergy. We are now reconfiguring your road model and requesting a connection to your personal data network."
"Rejected. I said, you do it."
Lin Lu's voice was stiff and cold, and a deep chill spread through the air, startling Zhuoya.
From the first moment she met Lin Lu, he had always treated her with gentleness, offering perfectly timed smiles and meticulous care. Only now did she realize that this man only shared his warmth with those he approved of, and that everything else was outside his consideration.
The black trench coat was like a tangible manifestation of self-protection, covering him completely, just as Zoya refused to take off the military uniform left by her father.
"clear."
The mechanical female voice answered calmly. She was just a system; she had no emotions and therefore would not be angry, aggrieved, or afraid.
Lin Lu didn't offer an explanation, nor did he need to explain to a system. PRTS wasn't an anemone... Well, he was starting to miss the anemone a little.
"Noah Heavy Machinery's acceleration device gates are fully open."
"learn."
A mechanical female voice came through; she was already connected to the Noah Heavy Machinery and only needed one command to drive the machine.
After a long period of cooling down, the acceleration chip device restarted, and the tail armor of the Noah Heavy Machine lifted up again, like a tall woman in an exquisite dress slowly raising her skirt, exposing the thick, black pipe to the air, shouting "I'm fucking crazy!" at the infected and monsters that had followed her all the way.
“START UP (Start the timer)”
The roar of the Originium Engine was infinitely prolonged as it accelerated beyond the concept of space, and the scorching blue-white flames tore through the air, producing a deafening explosion.
Lin Lu removed his left hand from the handlebars, embraced Zoya in his arms, and gently patted her back to reassure her. He lifted the front wheel with one hand and crushed it heavily onto the human ladder formed by the infected, the wheel tearing apart large chunks of flesh and blood as it continued to rise toward the rooftop of the military and police building.
Practice makes perfect. He even crossed walls a hundred meters high. Mr. Lin has his own unique way of climbing buildings, which you have to try.
"3"
"2"
"1"
"TIME OUT"
A clear mechanical sound rang out from the acceleration chip device, and the black and gold car body splattered a spray of blood that shot into the sky, successfully climbing to the rooftop of the abandoned military and police building.
Valery's eyes widened, and he was so shocked that he almost dropped the battering ram in his hand. If you live long enough, you might see anything. Is this a new police story being filmed in Yan?
A muscular man descended from the sky, Noah's heavy motorcycle crashing heavily onto the floor, the screech of its wheels screeching against the ground. Thanks to Lin Lu's superb driving skills, the motorcycle narrowly avoided sliding into the massive opening in the center of the rooftop. Beside the opening, tiny stones fell from above to the sixth floor, striking the infected man on the head with hollow sounds.
"Zoya?! What brings you back... Wait, who are you?"
Valery never expected that Zoya, who should have fled far away, would return, especially in this way!
Lin Lu lifted Zoya with one arm, helping the motion sick girl back to her feet, and removed his helmet at the same time. A pale red ribbon stood out conspicuously against her long, restrained white hair.
"I'm just a passing Ark Knight, remember that."
Lin Lu snapped his fingers, pointing his raised index finger toward Valery's missing left arm.
Realizing that the man was not an enemy, he slowly turned his finger toward the extremely grotesque and twisted stitched monster.
"I'm just a passing Ark Knight, remember that!!"
He felt he hadn't said it well enough, so he repeated it.
"Damn it... Naughty dog, come out and get a beating."
Lin Lu then turned his attention to the Frankenstein's monster, which would probably cause blood pressure to spike for those with trypophobia.
Fortunately, Lin Lu had even experienced Ibitas's tentacle play, so he had developed some resistance to grotesque things... But that didn't mean he wouldn't feel disgusted. The human limbs wriggling all over the monster's body made his scalp tingle instantly, and he suddenly had an urge to grab Zoya and run away.
"Hiss... We can't ignore Terra tomorrow..."
Lin Lu abandoned the shameful but useful idea of escaping, turned around and took the black knife with red blade that was tied to Noah's heavy machine, and stuck it upside down in the ground.
"Young man... I don't know who you are. You should take Zoya with you! I'll buy you some time. Go quickly!"
Valery shouted in a deep voice, dragging his wounded body forward a step, looking down at Zoya who looked worried.
He longed to pat Zoya's head and tell her she was alright, but his only right hand was gripping a weapon.
Holding a weapon means you can't embrace her.
