Apocalyptic Reincarnation: Start with a 30-million Bonus

The drizzle pattered down, and Li Yu looked at the zombies still gathering in front of him, his expression grave.

While pulling his crossbow and shooting continuously at the zombies, the forest still swarmed with an endless stream of new zombies.

...

Dark clouds closed in, and the drizzle gradually turned into heavy rain, pouring down noisily.

Everyone was soaked by the rain, but nobody retreated an inch, because they knew if the zombies breached the wall, everyone would be doomed!

But as they kept shooting, the scale of the zombies seemed not to diminish, and everyone felt a tinge of despair!

Li Yu also thought to himself: the arrows for the crossbows would run out sooner or later, and that would be trouble.

The zombies must be diverted. Otherwise, if they keep converging, the defenses will be eventually breached.

Fortunately, he guessed that the people attracting the zombies were only messing around near the front gate; in the kilometer-long wall, Li Yu had also set up a small gate behind two hills.

He must go out and divert the zombies.

After making his decision, Li Yu looked toward Zhao Dapao and others who were fervently killing zombies; Yang Tianlong was also constantly stabbing zombies with his long spear on the wall.

After pondering for a while, he decided to go out with Li Gang, Li Tie, the two brothers, along with Zhao Dapao, and Yang Tianlong, to divert the zombies.

This time going out, besides diverting the zombies, he also wanted to see if those people were still around. The people he was taking with him had just been discharged from the military, and all knew how to use guns, which was very important.

Using guns, in the end, might not be for dealing with zombies, but more so for dealing with people.

This is a sad reality, unavoidably!

So he called out: ”Tiezi, Gangzi, Tianlong, Dapao, we can’t go on like this, we must divert the zombies, otherwise they will keep coming and we’ll never finish them off! The five of us will go out and divert them!”

As soon as he finished speaking, Uncle anxiously said: ”Xiao Yu, I’ll go out with you too.” Li Hang next to him also said: ”Brother, I’ll go with you too.”

Li Yu felt a headache upon hearing this but was about to speak when he heard Yang Tianlong say: ”Sure thing, Yu, let’s go out there and take them down!”

Li Yu looked at Uncle and Second Uncle, and seriously replied: ”Someone is scheming against us, but I don’t know who. Right now the zombies are a problem. Once we’ve diverted the zombies, those people might come out. Uncle, Second Uncle, I’ll leave the base to you for now!”

Then he added: ”Uncle, no one else has better spear skills than you, so stay at the base for now.”

Upon hearing this, Uncle and the others didn’t quite know what to say. Their eyes were filled with anxiety, and Li Hang and others felt a surge of guilt, thinking they were not capable enough to help their big brother.

The month since Third Uncle returned has been the liveliest for the family, and this month at the base has been the most comfortable time since the apocalypse began.

He also heard what Li Yu said. As a parent, how could he not worry about his children?

Hearing that Li Yu was taking both brothers out to divert the zombies, he was initially reluctant, but what could he do? Li Yu was his nephew, and he was doing it for the family!

Li Tie and Li Gang were twins and often seemed to know what each other was thinking. After hearing Li Yu’s words, they didn’t think much about it; they were supposed to protect their family, and with Li Yu leading, they were very willing.

After Li Yu finished speaking, Li Tie, Li Gang, Yang Tianlong, and Zhao Dapao all came down from the Observation Tower, standing under the wall.

Li Yu looked at the four men in front of him, his gaze somewhat intense, and said: ”I just checked the surveillance room, and someone deliberately led the zombies here. So when we go out, we might have to kill not just zombies but potentially people too!”

The four men were somewhat surprised upon hearing this.

But Yang Tianlong was the first to speak up: ”Doesn’t matter. When I came back, I didn’t hesitate to kill some scum.”

Li Yu was somewhat surprised upon hearing this. Yang Tianlong and the others had not mentioned this to them.

Zhao Dapao explained from the side: ”When we went to the county before, there were a few guys who, oblivious to danger, relied on the fact they had knives. They saw that we had food and then only saw Tianlong and me, and then Little Bamboo, so they started talking nonsense and even wanted to rob us of our food. Luckily, Li Gang and Li Tie had just returned, and they took them all out.”

Zhao Dapao had a murderous look on his face as he spoke.

Upon hearing this, Yang Tianlong was also unexpectedly furious, ”Pah, they even thought to rob us. Scum like them deserve more than death.”

Li Yu, with a cigarette in hand, distributed a pack to everyone and waited for his father to come back with the guns.

Soon after, Li Yu saw his father, Li Hongyuan, coming back from the storeroom with the guns, took them over, and gave them out to the four men. Three submachine guns, two rifles.

He also equipped each person with a long knife and a dagger.

And with that, they set off!

Since the zombies were continuously gathering, everyone didn’t have much time to say anything.

Liu Fanghua, Third Uncle, Third Aunt, Uncle, Little Bamboo...

Watching the five slowly heading towards the back mountain, everyone’s hearts were filled with an indescribable discomfort. Once they were gone, who knew if they could return, watching as the five figures disappeared into the distance.

Li Hang clenched his fists tightly. He hated that he couldn’t offer much help to his elder brother, he hated his own incompetence. In critical moments, it was always his brother who shouldered everything for them.

He made a secret vow in his heart to improve himself so that the next time a similar situation occurred, he could also lend a helping hand to his brother.

The departure of the five men had the air of ”Wind rustles, cold are the waters of Yi”. As they left, it was for their families, for their protection.

Everyone’s hearts felt incredibly heavy, and the atmosphere became one of somber determination.

Raising their crossbows, they shot at zombies with even greater effort, hoping their actions could somehow help those who had ventured out.

At the back gate, Li Hongyuan gazed deeply towards the five, as if engraving their images in his mind.

When the walls were first built, a large gate was included. Although there were three smaller gates, those couldn’t accommodate large vehicles, only allowing motorcycles to pass through.

Li Hongyuan said solemnly to them: ”Take care, protect yourselves, we’ll wait for your return.”

Li Yu didn’t look back, just gave a wave of his hand, opened the small gate, and dashed out first. The four others quickly followed.

At the back gate, there were few zombies, but still some. Li Yu, holding his long knife, charged towards the zombies, with Li Tie and Li Gang also rushing towards a few others.

Bang! Li Hongyuan closed the small gate, then hurriedly climbed up the observation tower at the back gate. Seeing his people handle the scattered zombies relieved him.

Li Yu glanced at the four men and suddenly smiled, saying casually: ”Brothers, are you ready?”

Yang Tianlong still had his nonchalant attitude, waved his hand, and said, ”Let’s do this, Yu, start.”

The other three were also infected by this atmosphere. As if letting go of something, they looked calmly towards Li Yu.

Li Yu then took out a large loudspeaker.

Beep...

The sound from the loudspeaker, at an extremely high volume, immediately spread throughout the entire forest. The people defending the front gate from zombies also heard it.

Hearing the noise, zombies started moving towards the back gate. Watching the slowly shifting horde of zombies, everyone’s just-settled hearts once again grew concerned for the five who had gone out.

However, Li Yu’s party, after turning on the loudspeaker, quickly dashed off towards the national highway.
