After a while, Fatty Li and the others had already driven to the intersection. The journey had been bumpy, but no unexpected incidents had occurred. Seeing the two of them enter the cafe through the rearview mirror, Fatty Li finally felt a bit relieved. After turning right, he continued driving at a steady pace.
The group of zombies was very cooperative, chasing them all the way to the intersection.
On the other side, inside the cafe.
"Si Yao!? Alex!?"
While Yan Zekun was shouting, a zombie suddenly emerged from behind the counter and lunged at him. Because of the close distance, he couldn't swing his machete, and Yan Zekun was forced to retreat step by step!
Just as Yan Zekun was hurriedly dealing with the situation, He Ye came over and struck the zombie with a stick, sending it flying! He Ye then followed up with several more strikes, smashing it until red and white splattered.
Yan Zekun, who had fallen on his butt, was pulled up by He Ye.
"Thanks. Si Yao? Alex?" Yan Zekun simply said thanks and continued searching.
Time was running out, and seeing no one respond, the two of them didn't waste any more time and headed straight for the kitchen and the bathroom. The cafe's kitchen was wide open, but there was no one inside. They then went to the bathroom, and Yan Zekun cautiously pushed the door open, but it was also empty.
"Let's check the back door!"
Just as the two were about to check the cafe's back door, they suddenly heard an alarm sound from outside! Without checking the cafe further, they rushed to the entrance to see what was happening.
They saw a flashy red Lotus sports car speeding past the intersection where they had stopped earlier! The sports car was likely stolen, so the alarm was still blaring.
The piercing alarm naturally attracted the nearby zombies!
"Shit! The zombies are back!"
The zombies that Fatty Li had just lured to the intersection heard the alarm and immediately turned around and headed this way! They had spotted He Ye and Yan Zekun!
"I'll lure them away, you search the back door! Hurry!" Seeing the zombies getting closer, He Ye made a quick decision.
After saying that, He Ye rushed out of the cafe, closed the door, and ran toward the intersection where the Lotus sports car had gone.
Yan Zekun didn't hesitate and rushed to the back of the cafe. He had to act fast!
On another street, Fatty Li and Lily also heard the alarm. They exchanged a glance and knew something was wrong.
"Fatso, the zombies at the back are all coming back! They must have been attracted by that alarm! He Ye and the others are in danger!" Lily, looking in the rearview mirror, said anxiously.
"Damn it!"
Fatty Li cursed and quickly made a U-turn!
"Damn it, you bastard!!!"
Seeing the dense crowd of zombies in front of the car, Fatty Li shouted and floored the gas pedal. Zombies were either thrown against the windshield or crushed under the wheels. The front windshield of the SUV was already shattered and covered in blood and flesh!
Fatty Li made a drift and quickly returned to the street where the cafe was.
"God! That's He Ye! He's luring the zombies away!"
Lily and Fatty Li saw He Ye leading dozens of zombies to another intersection!
"Huff, huff."
He Ye was panting heavily, looking back. Fortunately, he still maintained a relatively safe distance from the zombies! As long as he could shake them off, he could return to meet up with Fatty Li and the others!
"Bang!"
At that moment, a minivan was about to cross the intersection, and He Ye couldn't avoid it in time and was slammed into the air!
The minivan had already braked in time when it noticed He Ye, but the inertia still threw him into the air! The zombies, seeing their tasty meal within reach, sped up and rushed toward He Ye!
"Damn it, you bastard!"
Fatty Li floored the gas pedal and rushed to the intersection. Unfortunately, even if he could drive as fast as 190 mph like the BMW in Nanjing, he wouldn't be able to arrive in time!
Just as Fatty Li thought He Ye was about to die at the hands of the zombies, the driver's side window of the minivan suddenly rolled down, and a woman extended a gun and fired several shots at the nearest zombies.
The leading zombies were all headshot, blood splattering as they fell to the ground! Two middle-aged men, one black and one white, like the black and white guardians, immediately jumped out of the minivan!
They quickly lifted He Ye into the minivan, and almost simultaneously, the zombies rushed to the side of the vehicle! The woman in the driver's seat didn't hesitate and fired, headshotting the zombies blocking the door.
The people inside the minivan immediately kicked the dead zombies aside and closed the door. Without time to roll up the window, the woman started the minivan and sped away!
Hearing the gunshots outside, Yan Zekun quickly ran to the door to check the situation. He thought it was Fatty Li shooting the zombies, but as he ran out the door, Fatty Li had just arrived and screeched to a stop.
"Quick! Get in the car!" Fatty Li quickly rolled down the window and shouted at Yan Zekun.
Without a word, Yan Zekun pulled open the door and jumped in. Fatty Li was about to step on the gas to chase the minivan, but a large number of zombies suddenly appeared at the intersection!
The zombies, ragged and bloodied, surged like a tidal wave! This far exceeded the three of their understanding of zombie swarms. Although they had seen dozens, even hundreds of zombies before, such a massive swarm was unimaginable!
More zombies kept appearing from behind, like an endless wave!
"Damn it! It must be that idiot who stole the sports car who attracted them!" Yan Zekun, who never swore, burst out with a curse.
By this time, the zombies had discovered Fatty Li's group! The zombie horde split into two groups, one continuing to chase the minivan, and the other heading toward Fatty Li's group!
With so many zombies, even a tank might not be able to get through, let alone their Subaru! The front was a dead end, and chasing the minivan would be suicide!
Fatty Li immediately put the car in reverse, and the Subaru quickly backed up. When they reached a place with fewer zombies, Fatty Li made a U-turn to face the right direction.
"Damn! It's the zombies from before!" Seeing the road behind them also blocked by zombies, Fatty Li cursed in frustration.
Fatty Li had lured nearly a hundred zombies to the right street earlier, and now they were blocking his way! Moreover, due to the alarm from the sports car, more zombies were gathering here!
Fatty Li didn't have time to think and floored the gas pedal, crashing through the zombies blocking the way and barely making it to the intersection.
But compared to the zombies on the road earlier, the black mass of zombies at the intersection was truly a roadblock. They blocked the entire intersection, leaving no possibility of turning left, right, or going straight!
If they tried to force their way through, they would be trapped by the thousands of zombies, and the Subaru would be nothing more than a paper toy.
Just as the Subaru slowed to a stop at the intersection, the zombie horde behind them had already surged over, stretching as far as the eye could see!
"Damn it! We're trapped here!" Fatty Li slammed the steering wheel and cursed.
