Apocalyptic Reincarnation: Start with a 30-million Bonus

Dark clouds press down upon the city, with thick clouds sealing it shut.

Li Yu’s heart palpitated stronger as he saw more and more zombies ahead.

No one dared to stop or get distracted; from the rearview mirror, everyone could see the dark clouds behind them.

Yet, none had seen under those clouds, a vast tide of zombies.

Everyone remained focused, continuously driving the cars, fearing distraction might get them trapped by zombies on both sides of the road.

One minute, two minutes, three minutes, four minutes, five minutes.

Under such rapid driving, with Third Uncle and Li Yu’s cars leading the way,

the journey was smooth and without incident.

At the very front, if Li Yu had just used an electric car, he might have been surrounded by zombies.

At this moment, Li Yu still frowning, seeing that there was still some distance to the base, yet the gas station was not far ahead.

However, the number of zombies was increasing. Many were climbing up from the fields, emerging from valleys, and even some were moving towards the direction they had come from.

What was behind them?

Just as Li Yu was puzzled,

suddenly, through the car window, he saw the dark clouds in the sky behind them very close, and below the sky, densely packed with zombies.

From the perspective of the rearview mirror, it seemed like an endless sea of zombies, without an end in sight.

Hiss!

Seeing this scene, Li Yu gasped, feeling a chill in his heart.

He was not the only one who saw this scene. There was Uncle at the very end. Being in charge of covering the rear, he was the first to see these zombies behind him.

At this moment, he was extremely tense!

Thus, he immediately picked up the walkie-talkie and said urgently: ”Xiaoyu, a large wave of zombies has appeared behind us. There are many! We must speed up!”

Hearing this, Li Yu felt bitter, as they were already driving nearly 100 kilometers per hour. Any faster, and it would be easy to skid if hitting a zombie, or lose control of the car, stalling.

”Uncle, hang in there, didn’t we bring some hand grenades out earlier? Throw a couple of those. We’ll be at the base soon. Everyone, don’t panic, hold on!” Li Yu’s words carried a firmness, acting like a shot of adrenaline injected into everyone’s hearts.

Uncle clenched his teeth, glancing at the hand grenades on the passenger seat, making up his mind.

Meanwhile, at the very front, Li Yu and Third Uncle were also having a tough time.

They encountered the most zombies ahead, constantly hitting zombies which created a ceaseless thumping noise.

What made them even more nervous was, the front windshield was nearly shattering, the front of the car was badly damaged, and the tires were almost bursting.

Both of them were under enormous pressure, with zombies ahead and the need to forcefully crash into them, the pressure was unimaginable.

From Third Uncle’s position, looking ahead, these aren’t just one or two zombies; almost every five seconds, they were certain to hit a zombie.

The cars behind them would then roll over the bodies of these zombies.

Another two minutes passed.

Li Yu saw the gas station ahead and slightly relaxed; finally, they had arrived there.

However, at Uncle’s side, the situation was very precarious.

Because the zombies were already less than 300 meters away from him.

Logically, zombies shouldn’t be able to catch up, as the speed of the cars was very fast. But the zombies catching up weren’t chasing from afar.

Instead, after Li Yu and Third Uncle cleared a path ahead, it broke through a gap, through which everyone drove, but soon, zombies would surround from the sides.

Then it would merge with the zombie tide behind, forming an even more terrifying wave of zombies.

This is it, the Zombie Tide, growing more and more.

On Li Yu’s side, due to the approaching dark clouds, for some reason, the zombies in front became more numerous and increasingly aggressive and frantic.

Even, two zombies directly pounced it, hitting the windshield.

Crack! A chill ran through Li Yu’s heart.

He had no choice but to slow down the car. Driving too fast would surely break the windshield, and the front of the car was already badly damaged.

Slowing down, the zombies from both sides swarmed up.

However, speeding up further would surely overwhelm the vehicles in front.

”Switch! Dapao, you take over for me,” Li Yu shouted into the walkie-talkie.

Li Yu’s truck slowed down instantly, then let another vehicle, an off-road vehicle behind him, take over. The performance of the off-road vehicle was also adequate.

Li Yu took the opportunity to let everyone pass him, driving alongside Uncle.

When Uncle saw that Li Yu had also moved to the rear, he said somewhat angrily, ”Why have you come to the back too?”

Uncle clearly understood that if the situation continued like this, they might be surrounded by the Zombie Tide before reaching the base.

Especially him, he had even thought before that at the very end he must buy some time for the others, stalling the zombies at the rear.

”Uncle, now, like this, we, at the same time, should clear the zombies on both sides first. You throw the Hand Grenade to the right, I’ll throw to the left. That way, the number of zombies coming up from behind can be reduced a bit.”

Hearing this, Uncle thought it wasn’t a bad idea at all.

Thus, the two agreed and rolled their windows down a bit.

Under Li Yu’s countdown, the two threw the Hand Grenades together. Since Hand Grenades take a few seconds to explode, this small window allowed the zombies to close in, making their density even stronger.

A few seconds later.

Two booming sounds came from behind.

Through the rearview mirror, Li Yu saw dozens of zombies behind him blown away, relieved to see a lower density of zombies.

Above, as the dark clouds drew closer.

Large raindrops started to fall sparsely.

Suddenly, Li Yu realized that the signal to the base was now receivable.

So he took out the walkie-talkie and said to the base, ”Tiezi, Gangzi, we’re coming back now, we’ll be there in a few minutes. It’s raining, and thundering, be quick to let us in, also, the Zombie Tide is coming again, get everyone ready to resist the Zombie Tide! This time, it’s unlike any other!”

Li Yu almost shouted, as the glass was open and the wind outside was howling.

Soon, a voice came from the walkie-talkie. ”Big brother, we saw it was going to rain earlier, and a few of us are here, so rest assured. Also, when you guys return, watch out for the zombies under the walls, they are starting to gather now.”

Before the rain, under the blazing sun, it was hard for zombies to smell humans from a distance.

Moreover, under the blazing sun, the zombies feared exposure and would generally hide in dark corners.

But once it gets gloomy, at night, the zombies’ sense of smell improves somewhat, but fortunately, the zombies around the base had mostly been slaughtered.

Unless it rained!

In the rain, the zombies’ sense of smell is greatly enhanced, and their speed also increases. They can smell humans through the air, especially in places with more people, where zombies can sense it even more clearly.

This time, due to the heavy rain, the zombies’ sense of smell was enhanced, now surrounding the base.
