Chapter 38: Zombie Baby

The roars outside were getting closer and closer. In her anxiety, Su Shanshan did not notice that an ice blade was already right in front of her. Gu Zhao picked her up by the waist and turned around to avoid it. Su Shanshan heaved a sigh of relief and said, “Thanks.”

Gu Zhao reluctantly let go and said, “You’re welcome.”

However, the zombie crowd had already entered the shop. They looked at the three of them with glowing eyes, waiting for the zombie baby to give the order to tear them apart.

In an instant, there was no room for them to maneuver in the crowded shop.

Su Shanshan and the other two retreated warily, but the wall was behind them and they had nowhere to run.

The zombie baby had already regained some consciousness. It stood on the head of the largest zombie and looked at them with a scary smile on its face while making a strange and ear-piercing sound.

All the zombies started moving. They roared and charged at them.

The Tang sword in Su Shanshan’s hand was powerful, but this place was too small, and she simply could not wield it. “We have to go outside,” she surmised. Coincidentally, Gu Zhao looked over. The two of them exchanged glances and understood each other’s thoughts.

These zombies were easy to deal with, but there were too many of them. Besides, the baby zombie’s sneak attacks were hard to guard against.

Su Shanshan kicked the zombie behind Fei Lan, who did not even have time to thank her. He struggled to keep up with the two of them, trying not to hold them back.

The zombie baby roared in rage. The zombies in the shop were getting more agitated. Their eyes were glowing red. The three of them had the feeling that they were being targeted by wild beasts.

As expected, the zombies’ combat power had doubled.

The three of them had their backs against each other, but there were too many zombies. The Tang sword in Su Shanshan’s hand felt a little heavy, not to mention that Fei Lan was relying on Gu Zhao to help him.

If this persisted, they would die of exhaustion.

Once again, Gu Zhao got rid of one of the zombies in front of Fei Lan. His eyes were fixed on Su Shanshan. The first thing he noticed was the change in her condition. Pursing his lips, he said, “I will use a whirlwind to open a path. You take the opportunity to get out.”

Su Shanshan immediately shook her head. “No, let’s go together.”

If they left, Gu Zhao would face these zombies alone and die.

Just as Gu Zhao was about to forcefully send them out, another sound came from outside. A voice sounded. “Miss Su, we are here to save you.”

This was Cao Yunjin’s voice.

Su Shanshan was elated. With Cao Yunjin’s direction, the two groups of people quickly opened up a passageway. Su Shanshan and the others walked out immediately.

This utterly infuriated the zombie baby. It screamed and the zombies surrounded it again. It was as if all the zombies in City M were here. There seemed to be no end to them.

Su Shanshan and the others did not panic. They did not stop what they were doing. It would be easier as long as they were outside.

Although the speed was slow, they were indeed making their way out. Just as they were about to succeed, a figure suddenly rushed in. She screamed and ran around wildly. Fei Lan, who was focused on killing zombies, was pushed by her accidentally. A zombie’s claw slashed his neck. Fortunately, he leaned back in time so that his head was not directly scratched.

The pain on his neck made him realize that he had been scratched. “I’m doomed. I’m going to become a zombie!” he thought.

Fei Lan looked in Su Shanshan’s direction and suddenly realized that he could not bear to leave her. The anger in his heart was aroused. He roared and rushed into the zombie crowd. Since things had already come to this, he had to kill to his heart’s content.

“Fei Lan, come back!” Su Shanshan shouted. She wanted to chase after him but was stopped by the zombies.

Su Shanshan’s face darkened. She stopped what she was doing and handed herself over to Gu Zhao, who was behind her. Her eyes quickly scanned the zombie crowd, trying to find that zombie baby.

If they wanted to control this group of zombies, they had to deal with the zombie baby. It must be nearby. She would definitely find it.. She felt that if she had not insisted on coming to City M, Fei Lan would not have encountered such a situation—it was all her fault.
