Rotting Land: Survive

Chapter 969: Chapter 954: Operation Lure the Corpses (Part 2)

Jump out of the car! There’s no need to say more, Wei Dazhuang is not foolish enough to charge into the horde of Zombies with the car.

Now is undoubtedly a prime opportunity for Wei Dazhuang to jump. If he misses it, once the car continues to drive a hundred more meters forward, even if he jumps out, he might be spotted by the Zombies.

At that time, being chased by the Zombies is a minor issue; affecting the entire strategic layout is the biggest problem.

So, after preparing the car for "driverless" mode, Wei Dazhuang opened the car door without a second thought and leapt out.

The related techniques of jumping out of a car, Shen Lian had reiterated to Wei Dazhuang multiple times.

However, even so, it was inevitable that Wei Dazhuang sustained some damage from the impact of jumping out.

Fortunately, Wei Dazhuang has thick skin and flesh, plus the car was not moving fast, so besides some bruises and scratches, he wasn’t injured to the bone.

After landing, Wei Dazhuang didn’t bother with anything else and rolled to hide under the nearby paulownia tree by the roadside.

The trunk of the paulownia tree is extremely broad, even though Wei Dazhuang has a tall and robust physique, it still fully covered him.

This undoubtedly reduced the risk of Wei Dazhuang being exposed. But even now, if he stood out, Zombies afar might not notice him.

Because at this moment, the beasts’ attention was completely drawn to the fast-approaching small truck.

Under the control of the iron shifting lever, the small truck proceeded straight ahead as planned, maintaining its initial speed.

Its arrival immediately excited the idle wandering Zombies.

The mindless beasts didn’t know what the thing before them was. Driven by their developed hearing, they instinctively believed the approaching moving object was a delicious prey.

This excited the front row of Zombies, causing them to screech repeatedly, turning the previously tranquil commercial street outside the school into a sudden commotion.

The Zombies began moving toward the small truck, spreading their arms as if welcoming a long-lost friend.

And the small truck was also slowly approaching.

A speed of 20 km/h is, truth be told, not fast.

But even this not fast speed is not something a mere mortal can stop.

Indeed, those mindless Zombies, eager to show their "enthusiasm," were knocked down instantly upon contact with the small truck, and savage scenes of heads bursting and bones cracking began to unfold.

Wei Dazhuang couldn’t see the bloody scene in the distance very clearly, but the path of the small truck was entirely under his control.

He casually took out a remote control from his pocket, this thing was also made by the "Zhong" and "Guo" brothers.

With this gadget, one can remotely control the expansion and contraction of the shifter. This way, the car will lose power and come to a stop.

Wei Dazhuang didn’t rush to press the control button, because Old Lin had specially instructed him before departure to stop the car as close to the school gate as possible.

Only in this way can the noise made by the horn sound source be maximized.

So right now, Wei Dazhuang was waiting for this optimal moment.

The small truck was still "fighting" with the surrounding Zombies, even though it had already "defeated" a dozen beasts, the mindless Zombies had no awe towards the small truck despite their comrades’ tragic deaths.

On the contrary, as the truck continued to penetrate deeper into the campus, more and more Zombies gathered.

As it was about to reach the school gate, Wei Dazhuang decisively pressed the remote control button in his hand.

As Wei Dazhuang moved his finger, the fixed clip on the shifter inside the car fell off as expected, then the shifter suddenly contracted and dropped down.

Without the support of the shifter, the originally pressed accelerator pedal returned to position.

The car, deprived of fuel supply, advanced a few meters under inertia, eventually let out a few pained groans, and then the entire vehicle stalled and stopped after a violent shudder.

Success, the small truck stopped steadily at the front gate of the school.

The perfectly precise placement indeed surprised Wei Dazhuang hidden behind the tree.

However, the fact that the car came to a complete stop was just the beginning; it’s far too early to celebrate victory.

After exhaling, Wei Dazhuang found his palms were unknowingly drenched in sweat.

It’s no wonder Wei Dazhuang was nervous since the task he had to perform next was crucial to this mission.

It had better work!

Praying silently, Wei Dazhuang moved his finger slightly, and when it reached above the second button on the remote control, he stopped.

This is the button controlling the car horn central control, just pressing it, all the horns on the small truck will go off in unison.

This reason alone was enough to explain Wei Dazhuang’s nervousness.

After another exhale, Wei Dazhuang’s eyes focused, and he pressed down.

"Beep beep beep..." Along with a piercing buzz, the car’s central control system started working.

Immediately, various noises followed one after another, even Old Xu and others trapped in the teaching building could hear it very clearly.

"It seems the first phase is a success." Derek’s tense face showed a trace of delight.

He had been tense all night long, though the people outside the school occasionally fed back on the progress.

But Derek consistently harbored doubts about these strangers’ actions.

Would they really take the risk to rescue his trapped companions?

Could they prepare everything in such a short time?

Could they execute the pre-planned strategy?

...

One uncertainty after another appeared in Derek’s mind, causing the little hope he just had to gradually fade away.

While Derek was filled with suspicion here, the Zombies inside the campus were disturbed by the sudden, blaring noise.

You can’t imagine how spectacular the scene looked with thousands of Zombies moving simultaneously.

The rotten corpses, dragging their feet, surged towards the school gate together, not long before the vicinity around the small truck was densely packed.

Even though several hundred meters apart, Wei Dazhuang could still feel the coldness coming from Hell.

Just imagine, if he hadn’t managed to escape the truck in time, then now...

Wei Dazhuang didn’t dare to think about the scenario of being surrounded by the horde, but his task was successfully completed, both the parking position of the truck and the working status of the horns met the pre-planned requirements.

Next, he needed to wait for the follow-up group’s progress.

Time abruptly slowed down, as planned, once Wei Dazhuang completed the respective tasks, the entire operation would halt for 15 minutes.

This time is reserved for gathering Zombies, and only when enough beasts are attracted out will the operation have value in unfolding.

The external action members have no way of knowing the situation inside the school, they can only rely on Old Xu and others trapped inside to understand the Zombies’ movements.

Based on the signs of Zombies leaving outside the teaching building and their activity within the campus, Old Xu decisively contacted Old Lin outside after 15 minutes passed and issued the second stage action order: "Old Lin, the Zombies on this side of the school have moved according to the predetermined plan, guidance steps can be carried out."
