Chapter 407: The Last Night of their Journey, A Request by the Misunderstood Woman

Day 69 - 5:48 PM - Marikina-Infanta Highway, San Jose, Antipolo, Rizal

As they reached the highway, everyone was in glee. Reaching the outskirts of the cities made everyone feel at ease. It was because of the number of infected within the cities being very large. After leaving the cities and entering the rural areas towards Eastern Luzon, they thought that it would be easier already.

However, that was the mindset cultivated by survivors that stayed in the middle of heavily infested cities. The real story was way too far from that.

In fact, the danger did not lessen at all.

For a lot of instances, it might have been even more dangerous.

At these parts, the infected might be lower in number. What made it worse was that these infected were a lot stronger than the ones around cities. It was because they managed to survive an environment filled with mutated predators.
