Chapter 25: In The End, They Had Embarked on a Different Path
Tian Hong stood guard at the entrance of his campsite, vigilantly observing his surroundings.
It was late at night, the hunting time of the mutant zombies.
They might appear quietly and wreak havoc in the camp.
If such a situation really happened, the only thing he could do was to wake everyone up as soon as possible and try to escape with as many people as possible.
Every time an accident happened, their only thought was to leave behind more fire.
Occasionally, his gaze would fall back to the campsite. Yin Ling was also looking after the others' sleeping conditions.
If anyone snored, they had to be woken up in time.
Any sound could attract the zombies.
After sweeping his gaze across the sleeping people, Tian Hong's eyes fell on the food.
Resources were starting to become scarce again.
They would definitely have to organize people to collect supplies. If there were no supplies nearby, they might even have to move to a new camp.
There were only two ways for the survivors to survive in Kerry City.
They could also constantly expand the scope of their search for resources.
The other option was to be like a nomadic tribe, constantly migrating and finding a land of resources that was more suitable for survival.
Both methods would make it easy to encounter zombies that he had never seen before and put himself in danger.
Especially when the wall was destroyed. Jiang Feng and the others who were the most powerful in the base were all gone.
The others weren't as quick-witted, and if there was a problem, they might all be wiped out.
This was too difficult!
However, it was impossible to get out of Kerry City.
He knew the situation at that time. There was a high wall surrounding Kerry City, and the people outside the wall had no intention of letting them out.
He could only wait for his death in Kerry City.
He had to choose between starving to death or dying at the hands of zombies.
He knew this would be the end, but when he saw the high wall, he couldn't help but feel a little indignant.
When the zombies attacked, it would have been better if they didn't try escape. It would have been less painful.
Tian Hong's eyes revealed a rare look of confusion.
After knowing the existence of the high wall, a weakness appeared in his heart.
However, as the leader of this survivor camp, he could not show his weak side.
He didn't even tell the others in the camp about this news, for fear of causing panic.
Almost all the survivors believed that there were zombies in other places and that there was a safe place outside the city.
If they knew that there was a high wall, their psychological defense would probably collapse in an instant.
This meant that only Kerry City had zombies. The survivors had been imprisoned and abandoned among the zombies.
"Hu hu!"
When Tian Hong came back to his senses, he heard heavy breathing.
This was obviously not a sound that a human could make.
The sound was just to his left, and he could even feel the air spurting on his face.
The smell of blood and decay should belong to the mutated zombies.
Did he really get what he wanted?
Tian Hong smiled bitterly.
He didn't expect that a mutated zombie would come so close to his face when he was just a little absent-minded.
If the mutated zombies were not close to the camp, they could still be lured away.
At this distance, the mutated zombie should be able to smell the scent of blood in the camp, so it would be hard for him to leave.
It didn't matter if he was bitten. He wanted to send the message to the others in the camp, and as long as one could escape, it was good.
Even though the mutant zombie was right in front of him, Tian Hong still held his breath and didn't move.
Very quickly, a tongue licked his face, and he could even smell the stench.
Tian Hong was extremely nervous, but he still didn't move.
The moment he moved, his throat would be bitten by the zombies.
Since the mutated zombie didn't attack, it meant that it had poor vision and a bad sense of smell.
It could only rely on its sense of touch to hunt.
There was still some time before dawn. Without his warning, more people might suffer.
He could not act rashly.
Just as Tian Hong was about to lose his breath, he finally saw the appearance of the mutant zombie.
This mutant zombie was very similar to a lizard. It had a long tongue, and its mouth was hanging out, drooling.
It was right above his head.
It was coming from the top of the building, so he didn't notice it immediately.
Knowing that the zombie was above his head, Tian Hong controlled himself and used all his strength to fall.
Falling down was faster than doing other actions. If he fell, he almost didn't need to react.
His knee hit the ground, and blood immediately appeared.
Tian Hong didn't have time to feel the pain and informed the rest of the camp, "Mutant zombies, prepare to resist!"
After shouting out the warning, Tian Hong rolled around and panted heavily.
The warning just now had taken up almost all his energy.
He had deliberately fallen down and injured himself. He would definitely not be able to escape tonight.
Tian Hong thought for a moment and started to crawl further away. The camp would be safer if the mutated zombies were further away.
As expected, the lizard caught up to him at an even faster speed after he had reacted.
It directly pounced on him.
The lizard zombie's rotten flesh still had pus, and many bone spikes had grown out.
It's tongue stretched out from its mouth full of sharp teeth. He didn't know if it would bite its tongue when it ate.
He was going to die!
It was good that he was going to die.
After all, Kerry City had high walls.
Tian Hong closed his eyes.
At this moment.
Yin Ling walked to the entrance of the campsite and just happened to see this scene.
She covered her mouth, and her eyes rolled as she fell unconscious.
This must be fate!
While she was in despair, she saw another zombie jump down from the building across the street.
"Roar!"
An ape-like zombie jumped down from the building with an axe in its mouth.
The hammer-like fist landed on the lizard-like zombie's body.
When it sent the lizard-like zombie flying, the ape-like zombie held the axe in its mouth and smashed the lizard-like zombie's head open.
Tian Hong also opened his eyes and was stunned.
'No! The camp is in even more danger!'
Tian Hong quickly reacted. The lizard-like zombie had obvious weaknesses, but the ape-like zombie was stronger.
The wolf had left, and a tiger had come.
God really wanted to destroy their camp!
"Are you alright?"
Just as Tian Hong was looking at the campsite unwillingly, Yin Ling walked over worriedly and wanted to help Tian Hong up.
"Go away. The zombies haven't left yet. I don't mind sacrificing myself!"
Tian Hong saw Yin Ling walking over and quickly called out.
He was wounded and bleeding. He must have been the first one to attract the zombies.
"Don't be silly, let's go!"
Yin Ling had already walked over to Tian Hong and helped him up.
"It left?"
Tian Hong looked at the place where the two zombies had been fighting with disbelief and found that the ape-like zombie had indeed dragged the lizard-like zombie away.
How could this be? This was not normal!
"By the way, when the zombie that looked like an ape jumped down from the roof, I think I saw Jiang Feng's figure."
When Yin Ling was helping Tian Hong into the campsite, she still remembered a figure that she had caught a glimpse of.
"Jiang Feng? That's impossible!"
Tian Hong shook his head.
If it was Jiang Feng, he would not sit by and watch the camp being invaded. Furthermore, it was even more impossible for him to be with the zombies.
If he could control zombies, he wouldn't have to live so poorly.
"Now that I think about it, he really did look like Jiang Feng. Only he would be standing there with such a cold expression."
Yin Ling took the medicine to treat Tian Hong's wound, and her face was still filled with doubt.
At the same time.
Jiang Feng went to the roof of another building and sat on the parapet. Behind him, the herculean zombie and the long-armed zombie were eating the lizard-like zombie.
From this angle, he just happened to see Yin Ling supporting Tian Hong as they walked in.
He was lucky to have saved the camp once.
However, he couldn't just guard this place alone.
Everyone had a different fate, and he was destined to walk a completely different path from the camp in the future. They might even be enemies.
It was precisely because of this that he had no intention of meeting Tian Hong and the others.
Meeting him would only interfere with his revenge and cause other unnecessary trouble.
He turned around and saw that the two zombies had almost finished the lizard zombie. He then stood up and left.
It was almost dawn, and it was time to go back to the City Center.
