Chen Ming and several others were on the brink of collapse.
Although they had used their voices to lure the zombies at the front door of the library to the back, when they started running, zombies from all directions still chased them.
"No, we can't! Zombies are coming at us from the front!" Lin Xinyan, a young girl, ran from behind, shouting in terror. Her legs trembled uncontrollably.
"Don't look back! Run!" Zheng Yu, holding a four-cornered desk over his head, shouted from under the desk.
They had seen the news on the library computer, learning that these creatures were called zombies and that they were defined as undead...
This knowledge further fueled their determination to escape because the library door wouldn't hold for much longer.
However...
The situation was dire. As soon as they appeared outside, a horde of zombies charged toward them.
Although they had taken defensive measures in the library, with one man and one woman holding a square desk together, creating a safe space in the middle, Chen Ming realized that they had underestimated the zombies and overestimated their own courage.
A dozen young people who hadn't eaten for a day or two nights were shocked at the sight of the hungry and ferocious zombies.
"What?!" Lin Xinyan screamed as a zombie grabbed her around the waist from below. She struggled to break free, but the grip was unrelenting, refusing to let go.
Zhang Tao, under the same table, reached out to pull her, trying to free her from the grasp of the zombie.
In that moment, the zombie forcefully tore a piece of flesh and skin from Lin Xinyan's waist, along with her clothes.
As Lin Xinyan fell to the ground, screaming in agony, Zhang Tao widened his eyes in horror. Gasping, he looked at the monsters behind him and instinctively ran forward.
He glanced back to see Lin Xinyan crouched on the ground, stretching out her arm, still pleading, "Help me..."
Lin Xinyan, squatting on the ground, was soon overwhelmed by the swarm of zombies.
"Sorry..." Zhang Tao cried as he ran desperately.
Sorry, he didn't have the courage to save her.
Sorry, he just wanted to survive...
Ren Yulan and Zhang Chengguang, holding onto a table, witnessed the horrific scene. They also noticed that because of Lin Xinyan, almost all the ravenous zombies had diverted their attention to devour her.
Although the sight was horrifying, they felt a sense of relief.
Because of Lin Xinyan, the immediate danger around them had decreased significantly.
Soon after, another pair of individuals fell victim to the pursuing zombies. The crowd of corpses immediately surrounded them as they desperately clung to each other.
[Report these people and cut off their heads.]
[Supporting roles in this show are truly pitiful.]
[Zhang Tao isn't a man anymore. Did he just run away?]
[Guessing blindly, these people are done for. There are so many zombies ahead.]
These comments were not just from the audience but also from Chen Ming and his group themselves.
"Damn, I'll fight them!" Zhou Kairui pulled out an iron rod tucked in his pants and prepared to charge, but Chen Ming restrained him.
"Don't do it! I can't hold the table on my own." Chen Ming said. Due to his slim build and the lack of girls, he had been paired with Zhou Kairui. He knew Zhou Kairui was desperate and wanted to make a final stand.
