Apocalyptic Reincarnation: Start with a 30-million Bonus-Chapter 1062 - 693: Lao Jun Bears the Sword to Save the People [10,000-Word Major - ]
The highway was covered in thick layers of dust and sand.
Sticks, branches, rocks, and some tires, along with various random items, littered the highway.
These items were washed over from other places during the previous flood.
They didn't have time to clean up; they could only roll over them.
The vehicle shook, feeling like a roller coaster ride.
Especially when crossing places that had melted and sunk in the drought heat, the seats could make people fly into the air.
Old Qin smiled bitterly and said to Third Uncle, "Captain, this road is quite tough. We might suffer a bit on this journey."
Third Uncle seemed unfazed, saying, "No rush, drive slowly. Anyway, we have to wait for Zhu Xiao and the others behind us."
"Alright."
......
Behind the armored RV, followed ten heavy trucks.
Thump—
The truck tires sank down, then quickly pulled up.
Zhu Xiao rubbed his bumped forehead and said, baring his teeth, to the team member driving, "Take it easy."
The team member felt a bit melancholic.
He tried hard to control the steering wheel and said to Zhu Xiao, "Leader, this road condition is just incredible. I've been driving for so many years and never encountered such a tough road."
If not for the few stubborn street trees on either side, he'd feel he wasn't even driving on a highway.
Zhu Xiao saw the armored RV about tens of meters ahead and hurriedly said to the team member, "Speed up, don't fall behind."
In fact, Old Qin's driving speed was already reduced to only thirty or forty kilometers per hour.
But even at this slow speed, they were still heavily jolted, showing how much damage and impact the flood had on the road.
They drove south all the way.
Though the road was bumpy, at least there was a road.
........
Orange Continent.
Gan Hu panted heavily, watching as Yao Zuo and the others locked the iron door of this floor with iron chains again.
Behind the iron door, constant banging from zombies could be heard.
Bang bang bang— 𝘧𝑟𝑒𝑒𝘸𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝓁.𝘤𝘰𝓂
Gan Hu looked at the bright sun outside, feeling a surge of discomfort.
It was obviously daytime, yet they couldn't go out.
He pulled out the magazines from the two handguns at his waist, checked the bullets; many had been spent on this journey, and now both guns combined had less than twenty bullets left.
He helplessly said to Yao Zuo, "Think of something, we have to get downstairs; we can't stay here forever. If we stay any longer and the food runs out, we'll starve to death. Moreover, it's daytime now, and we won't be able to move at night."
Yao Zuo looked at the dozens of people around him, feeling a bit bitter inside.
Damn, if there were only one or two people, or maybe just a dozen, it would be better, with less chance to attract zombies.
With so many people, the presence was too strong, easily drawing zombie attention.
He didn't answer immediately to Gan Hu, frowning in deep thought.
Listening to the banging sounds from behind, Yao Zuo's mind worked fast, trying to devise a plan.
Suddenly, he glanced at the sunlight outside the hall and remembered zombies' aversion to sunlight.
So he said to Gan Hu, "I've got an idea, not sure if it'll work, but we can try."
"Go on."
Yao Zuo didn't waste words, directly saying, "We all know zombies hate sunlight. If we break all the glass outside the hall, let sunlight shine in, and then open the door, these zombies might retreat."
Gan Hu frowned, mainly considering that even if breaking the glass allows sunlight in, these zombies might not flee the hall.
But they still needed to go down.
No other choice, Gan Hu thought for a while without coming up with a better solution.
He could only say, "Alright, let's go with your plan first."
So they got everyone to push benches and sofas to smash the glass.
Crash!
With violence, all the glass in this floor's house was smashed.
The floor was already quite high, with strong winds.
After smashing the glass, the wind rushed in, carrying sunlight.
All the glass on this floor was smashed, making the entire hall very bright.
"Open the main door!" Gan Hu pointed at one man.
The man wanted to refuse but thought better after witnessing previous refusals having no effect; it was better to obediently comply.
The iron chains were dropped, but the zombie banging continued.
The man prepared for a quick retreat.
He placed his hands on the door handle and swiftly opened it.
Roar roar roar—
Almost instantly, a dozen zombies swarmed in.
Many more zombies rushed in one after another.
........
In the sunlight, these zombies moved sluggishly.
Yet, their hunger for human flesh and blood overcame their aversion to the sun.
Roaring, they shuffled their bodies, surging towards the crowd.
"Damn! It's useless!" Gan Hu shouted angrily, pulling out his gun and aiming at a zombie rushing towards him.
Bang!
The group formed a circle, counterattacking against the zombies.
In fact, they were experienced in zombie combat, but during the torrential flood, to conserve food, they ate too little, so their stamina fell short.
Thwack!
A zombie's head was pierced by a spear, falling to the ground.
Two zombies immediately crawled on the ground to feast on the fallen zombie, Yao Zuo saw this and quickly thrust his spear into one of the zombies.
