Su Yun stood under the thin, rusted shed, sweat trickling down her sunburned skin as she watched the towering blue metallic walls of Boss Su's base.
They loomed in front of her like an impenetrable fortress, glimmering ominously under the scorching sun.
The electric hum emanating from the walls reminded her that this place was the ultimate sanctuary—a bastion of safety where zombies were nothing more than a distant threat.
Her parched lips cracked as she longed for the cool interior she had heard so much about.
They said the base used advanced technology to regulate temperature, creating an oasis in the middle of this blistering wasteland.
The heat out here was relentless, even in the shade.
Each wave of scorching air felt like a slap, and her skin bore the marks of a life lived under the harsh sun—burned, raw, and peeling.
She swallowed hard, imagining the variety of food inside.
