Surviving the Infinite Survival Game by Exploiting Glitches
Chapter 105 Back to the BaseHowever, the commotion caused by Wu Yatu’s palm strike was so loud that the survivors hiding nearby immediately huddled together, trembling with fear that whoever was outside might discover them.
They had originally been tourists visiting the scenic area. Who could have imagined that the apocalypse would suddenly break out and that so many people on the mountain would turn into zombies?
To make matters worse, it had happened during a holiday, so the scenic area had been packed with tourists.
The zombies were like rats that had fallen into a pile of rice, frantically biting and tearing into the tourists.
Those who were bitten either died or became infected with the zombie virus and turned into zombies themselves, joining the horde in hunting the remaining survivors.
Gradually, fewer and fewer people remained in the scenic area.
Some hid inside the buildings scattered throughout the area. Others tried to flee down the mountain. Most, however, either died or became zombies.
There were simply too many zombies outside.
Although some had wandered down the mountain, quite a few still remained in the scenic area.
Some of the tourists bravely fought back and managed to kill several zombies. Seeing that the zombies could actually be killed, the other survivors regained some courage and picked up whatever weapons they could find to defend themselves.
Fortunately, the level-one zombies were relatively easy to deal with, and they eventually managed to eliminate all the zombies in the area.
But the outside world had already changed beyond recognition.
They didn’t dare leave the scenic area, so they could only hide there and struggle to survive.
They never expected that such a huge commotion would suddenly erupt outside.
They couldn’t hear exactly what was happening and were terrified that a horde of zombies had discovered them.
The survivors huddled together inside their shelter, trembling with fear.
Wu Yatu was already a level-four zombie and was approaching level five. With a little searching, she quickly found the survivors who were hiding nearby.
She had chased those people for so long, only to discover that they had slipped away.
She was furious.
And now, humans had conveniently delivered themselves right to her doorstep.
What a pleasant surprise.
Wu Yatu wasn’t in a hurry to kill them.
Instead, she intended to torture them slowly, just as she herself had once been tortured and abused before she died.
...
On the Bus
Xu Chi and the others no longer doubted what Lin Yun had told them.
On the contrary, they had learned quite a lot from her.
Now that they had a better understanding of zombies, they planned to report the existence of the advanced zombie as soon as they returned to the base.
Their base was located in this very city.
If that zombie really evolved into a level-five Zombie King in the future, then sooner or later, those living in the same city would inevitably have to face it.
At present, their understanding of zombies was still far from complete, and they had no idea just how powerful a Zombie King could eventually become.
The discovery that advanced zombies possessed human-like intelligence and consciousness was anything but a good sign.
Just in case...
Humans and zombies were no longer the same species. Who knew what kind of intentions the other side might have?
"By the way, are you really not coming back to the base with us?"
Ji Mingfeng was still unwilling to give up.
Lin Yun shook her head.
"No. There’s no freedom at the base. I’m not going."
Ji Mingfeng: "..."
Xu Chi looked at Lin Yun with a complicated expression.
"It’s very dangerous outside, and we’ve very likely already provoked a future Zombie King."
"Then I won’t go either."
Lin Yun refused again.
She was in a hurry to return and collect the zombie corpses. If she delayed any longer, what if other survivors found them and took the corpses she had worked so hard to kill?
"Just drop me off at the base entrance later. I’m not going inside."
"...It’s fine if you don’t want to come to our base, but you’ll still need supplies, right?"
Lin Yun was speechless for a moment.
It would certainly sound strange if she told them she didn’t lack supplies.
"I’ll get some next time. I have enough supplies for now, and I still have something to take care of later."
Xu Chi sighed.
"All right, then."
"By the way, although we believe what you’ve told us, we’re not sure how the leadership will react. We may need to contact you later. Could you tell us where you’re staying?"
Lin Yun thought for a moment, unsure of what to say.
Wu Yatu would most likely return to the square, and her shelter was nearby.
If she told them where she lived and they went looking for her, wouldn’t they risk running into Wu Yatu?
"Do you remember that building where we met before?"
"Let’s meet there in two days."
Xu Chi frowned slightly.
Although he was puzzled, he decided not to press her since she clearly didn’t want to reveal more.
"All right."
Soon, the vehicle stopped at an entrance.
Everyone got out.
Before entering the base, they needed to undergo an inspection to make sure they had no wounds. Otherwise, someone who had been scratched or bitten by a zombie could conceal the injury and enter the base, potentially infecting everyone inside.
Lin Yun got out as well.
She looked around and realized that the base was located inside a villa community.
The surrounding walls had been reinforced with sharp objects such as steel spikes, while a long trench had been dug along the outside of the walls, presumably to prevent zombies from climbing over.
The entrance to the villa community was also heavily guarded.
Everything had been arranged with one purpose in mind: keeping the zombies out.
"Are you leaving already?"
Xu Chi had instructed his teammates to go through the inspection first before coming over to speak to Lin Yun again.
Lin Yun nodded.
"Yes. I’m leaving now."
After hesitating for a moment, she added,
"I don’t know exactly how intelligent that advanced zombie is, but you all need to be careful recently. I’m worried that it might eventually find its way here."
Xu Chi’s expression became serious.
He nodded.
"Don’t worry. I’ll go see the leader as soon as I get inside."
"...Be careful on your way back."
Lin Yun nodded.
"You too."
She waved goodbye and walked away from the base entrance.
Ji Mingfeng, who had not yet undergone the inspection, came over and watched Lin Yun’s retreating figure.
"You know, she’s pretty impressive for such a young girl. She actually dares to stay outside by herself under these circumstances."
"Brother Xu, are we really not going to recruit her?"
"That vine of hers is amazing. I really wonder how she got it. If she joined us, wouldn’t it be much easier for us to kill zombies and search for supplies?"
When he mentioned the vines, Ji Mingfeng instinctively lowered his voice.
Xu Chi had not reported the existence of the vines to his superiors. He had also instructed his teammates not to mention them to anyone.
He felt that revealing the vines would only bring trouble.
"Don’t mention joining the base to her anymore. She’s not one of us."
"Besides, don’t you know what kind of people are in charge of our base?"
"As long as Yu Qian is still around, Zhao Tianbo will never be able to completely control the leadership."
"Besides, Miss Lin is beautiful. Have you forgotten what kind of person Yu Qian is?"
"If she finds out that Miss Lin is both beautiful and capable, who knows what kind of trouble she might cause?"
At the mention of Yu Qian, Xu Chi’s expression darkened.
Yu Qian was a constant source of trouble.
To make matters worse, she was also one of the base’s leaders and had enough influence to oppose his direct superior, Zhao Tianbo.
Even though Xu Chi and the others were deeply dissatisfied with Yu Qian, there was little they could do about her.
They especially couldn’t reveal anything about the vines.
If Yu Qian developed some ulterior motive toward Lin Yun, then not only would Zhao Tianbo be dragged into trouble, but Xu Chi and the others would suffer as well.
And Lin Yun would be in even greater danger.
