“What’s happening!”
Wang Tao quickly took out his binoculars.
Looking at the vast expanse of ferocious figures, his scalp tingled.
At a glance, there were at least tens of thousands of zombies!
With so many zombies, anyone who ca would die!
In his heart, he even felt a mont of panic, but he quickly forced himself to calm down. Because panicking now was useless, he could only adapt to the situation as it unfolded.
Wang Tao imdiately went downstairs, packed up his things, and if he really was to be besieged by that many zombies, his only option would be to flee by car.
Although driving at night was almost like courting death, it was still better than being torn apart by zombies here.
Of course, this was a worst-case scenario.
He still had a bottle of Stealth Potion in his hand, which he had intended to keep for the return trip. But if there was no other choice, he would have to use it now.
After getting everything ready, Wang Tao returned to the upstairs window, and after waiting for more than ten minutes, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
“They’re not heading for the water plant, thank goodness! But—
These zombies didn’t seem organized, just wandering on the streets. They ca from the east side of the road and then left from the west.
“But damn it, so many zombies have entered the water plant!” Looking at the zombies in the water plant, Wang Tao felt a headache coming on.
He thought he should have locked the gate of the water plant-no, wrong, even if he locked it, those survivors would definitely co and pry it open…
Anyway, no matter what, quite a few zombies had gotten in, but it wasn’t to the extent that he felt he had to risk his life to run… he could only wait for now.
Wang Tao let the curtains fall, then went to the top floor to take a light nap.
The rooftop was quite far from the zombies below, and his “human scent” would definitely be much fainter there, which naturally ant it would be a lot safer.
As dawn was about to break.
Wang Tao, who was in the middle of sleeping, suddenly heard a scream from afar.
He reflexively got up, grabbed his weapon, and then went to the window, parted the curtains, and took a peek.
“It’s coming from the water plant building… Those survivors are in trouble!” The moonlight was good that night, and Wang Tao saw that the glass doors under the distant building had shattered, and plenty of zombies were sowhat frantically squeezing inside.
Wang Tao couldn’t see what was happening inside, but if those survivors were smart, there was still a chance they could survive, as the rooms inside the building weren’t doorless. Or they could block the stairs with so stuff to prevent the zombies from getting up.
“It all depends on whether they’re smart enough…
Wang Tao shook his head.
Now that it was morning, and he no longer felt sleepy, he habitually fiddled with the radio and the walkie-talkie.
Then he suddenly heard a voice coming from the walkie-talkie!
“Zzz… This is Suzaku University Survivor Base, please respond if you receive this, please respond… Zzz…”
After hearing the tired female voice repeat several tis, Wang Tao then pressed the PTT button on the walkie-talkie.
“Received, this is the water plant, this is the water plant…
Wang Tao also repeated several tis.
While pressing the PTT button on the walkie-talkie, it could only transmit one’s voice, but not receive. Therefore, it had to be repeated several tis to avoid missing the conversation.
After a mont.
“Survivor, hello! Please repeat your location, I didn’t hear you clearly! Please repeat… Zzz… It’s so good to make contact…”
Wang Tao repeated:
“I’m at the water plant, I’m at the water plant…”
“Heard you, I heard you! How is the water plant fairing, is it safe?
Wang Tao glanced at the zombies downstairs.
“It’s temporarily safe, but there are zombies everywhere downstairs.”
The other party paused for a mont and then added.
“Sorry, we can’t offer you help at the mont, but we have established a Survivor Base at Shuize University. If you can leave the water plant safely, you can co to the Suzaku University Base. We’ll provide you with safety and food, and you’d only need to do so work for the construction of the base…”
It sounded quite promising.
-By the way, how many survivors do you have at your water plant? How long can your food supply last?”
Wang Tao thought for a mont and said:
“There are six of us in total, including one female officer.”
“Female officer… Ah, I see, are you the group saved by Officer Han Rui?
Han Rui?
Wang Tao confird:
“Yes, that’s Officer Han. But they’re all asleep now, haven’t woken up yet.” To prevent the other party from asking directly about Officer Han Rui, Wang Tao preemptively closed the topic.
II II
The person on the other end did indeed want to inquire whether Han Rui was present, as a professional police officer would definitely have better communication skills in so matters than ordinary people.
But since they were asleep, it wouldn’t be good to wake them up. In such tis, maintaining one’s condition was very important.
“May I ask about the situation at your Shuize University Base?”
Wang Tao asked further.
“Of course, there are currently over three hundred survivors at our Shuize
Base…”
Upon hearing this number, Wang Tao was imdiately surprised.
Having over three hundred survivors was quite significant!
After listening a while longer, Wang Tao also roughly understood the situation at the Suzaku University Base.
Before the apocalypse struck, Shuize University was undergoing renovations, and due to the strong paint fus, had given a two-day break. When the apocalypse hit, the university was mostly empty aside from a few staff on duty, so there weren’t many zombies there.
Next to the university was a Security Army squad, which had experienced a large-scale infection internally. Those of the Security Army who survived grabbed weapons and ammo and ran out. As they fled, they rescued civilians, and taking a liking to Shuize University, they established a Survivor Base there. The Security Army had thermal weapons and were physically fit. With so police officers joining them in the middle, they managed to save many people. Even Huangfeng Film City, which was so distance away from Shuize University, had many actors and actresses rescued and brought over.
The current state of the Suzaku University Base wasn’t just strong, but it had settled down. Every survivor in the base could find sothing to do, with access to food and safety… It was arguably the best Survivor Base in Shuize
County.
Many people nearby wanted to go there, but even a few kiloters journey involved life-threatening risks.
Officer Han Rui and her group had heard of the Suzaku University Base from another location, then managed to make contact with Shuize Base. After learning more, they decided to take the risk to go there…
Having understood everything he needed to know, Wang Tao said:
“Thank you very much for the information! I must go now, the walkie-talkie is running out of battery. I hope we can et in the future.”
“Mhm mhm, good luck to you all! Our radio frequency is… We will turn it on at scheduled tis every day…”
The other party relayed so more information before ending the conversation.
Wang Tao, stroking his chin stubble, muttered:
“This Suzaku University Base could be a good place to head to. But this is only one side of the story, we can’t completely trust it until we see it with our own eyes….”
