The survivors who had just rushed in had barely caught their breath when they heard the words and, bracing their bodies, quietly followed Lin Yuan as he crouched and moved forward.
Due to the obstruction of flames and bushes, the zombies had lost track of their prey. The neural images in their minds could no longer generate the prey's position and direction.
After roaring in place for a while, only hearing the crackling sound of burning bushes and smelling the scent of combustion, they could only wander around and disperse.
Successfully reaching the first floor, Lin Yuan quickly locked the door. Wu Mengyao had already informed them that the zombies in the neighborhood were moving towards them, likely to investigate the situation.
Turning to look at the survivors who were completely exhausted, he quietly said to Wu Tian, "Draw your bow. I'll go ask them about their situation first."
Wu Tian said nothing after hearing this, silently drawing his bow, but not raising it, the arrowhead pointing at the ground.
Before Lin Yuan could speak, a person in special police gear among the survivors spoke first, "Thank you so much. If you hadn't stopped the zombies, we might have become food in their stomachs by now."
Wang Zhihai was experiencing a great deal of ups and downs in his life. He first encountered the zombie crisis while on duty, then went out to rescue people only for their armored vehicle to break down halfway. After finally finding a small supermarket to hide from the zombies with enough food, someone in the team snatched a special police officer's handgun and fired it, injuring a team member before escaping. kanδん
Wang Zhihai was numb. He quickly led his team out. They were discovered by zombies halfway and ran desperately until they were rescued by Lin Yuan and Wu Tian.
Lin Yuan looked at this special police officer and his impression of him improved. After all, he had said thank you.
However, he still had to do what was necessary. "No need for thanks yet. Quickly check each other to see if anyone is injured or scratched by the zombies."
Wang Zhihai was startled by this and looked at his people, then at Wu Tian's fully drawn bow.
He quickly got up to check his team members. Fortunately, after a thorough check, no one had been bitten or scratched by the zombies.
However, there was still an injured person in the team. Wang Zhihai thought for a moment and decided to tell the person who saved them.
"No one was injured by the zombies, but one of our team members suffered a gunshot wound. We've already treated it with disinfectant bandages and alcohol. We sprayed her with floral water and mint oil, so the zombies won't find her," Wang Zhihai said, pointing to one of the special police officers.
Gunshot wound?
Lin Yuan was a bit nervous. Although it had been treated, he was still worried about the zombies being attracted by the smell of blood. The zombies in the neighborhood were already heading this way.
"Then let's go upstairs first. Some zombies are already coming to check the situation, we can't let them find us."
Wearing a helmet, Lin Yuan's voice was muffled.
"Go upstairs? Are there no zombies in this building?" a girl of about sixteen or seventeen asked.
"The zombies in the corridors have already been dealt with by us. There are only a few in some rooms. Stop the nonsense and hurry upstairs. The ground floor is not safe."
The seven survivors were a little shocked upon hearing this. All dealt with? Are these two people this strong?
The three special police officers were less surprised. When they arrived, they saw the zombie corpses lying on the ground, their heads shattered into several pieces. It must have been done by the person with the axe, and he was very strong.
However, clearing all the zombies in a building was indeed too much, especially since they didn't have firearms.
But now was not the time to get to the bottom of it. They needed to go upstairs first.
The group, a large contingent, returned to the 11th floor. Wu Mengyao had been waiting for a while.
"It's really Special Police Brother! And Special Police Sister!" Wu Mengyao's eyes turned into little stars as she looked at the special police officers in their combat uniforms. Especially the cool firearms in their hands, Wu Mengyao wanted to hug them and take them apart and reassemble them herself. This felt much better than making a crossbow.
Fortunately, Wang Zhihai and the others didn't know Wu Mengyao's true thoughts. They just saw her as feeling a sense of security seeing the police.
However, Lin Yuan was a little surprised. There was a female special police officer?
He looked over with curiosity. Indeed, the injured special police officer's features didn't look like a male's.
"Mengyao, go and get the medical kit from home first. Special Police Sister is injured and needs it."
"Yes! Mission guaranteed!" Wu Mengyao saluted like a Young Pioneer and rushed off.
Lin Yuan and Wu Tian still had to help four people. Their physical exertion was too great, and they couldn't climb anymore.
When they reached the rooftop, Wu Mengyao had already opened the medical kit in the sentry box.
After helping everyone inside, they sat on the cool sofa.
"Mengyao, go get some water and fruit. Your sister and I will take care of them first."
"Okay, coming right up." Seeing the surviving compatriots, Wu Mengyao didn't feel tired at all.
Wang Zhihai and the other survivors quickly said, "No need, comrades. We just need a little water to wet our throats. No need for fruit and such."
"Phew, I'm suffocating," Lin Yuan and Wu Tian took off their helmets. "It's okay, it's okay. It'll go bad anyway if we don't eat it. Mengyao can pick locks, so we have enough supplies. However, after you've arrived, you'll need to continue searching for supplies."
Seeing their faces under the helmets, everyone was extremely envious. Their faces were still fair after these days, with no dark circles, and they looked energetic.
Handing the medical kit to the special police officer who seemed to be the leader, "You all see what you need. We only have these things."
At this moment, two girls among the survivors raised their hands. "Let us take a look. We are nurses from the hospital."
Oh? Nurses? Lin Yuan and Wu Tian exchanged glances. Their eyes flashed with joy. This was like finding treasure.
"Yes, you are much more professional than us." Lin Yuan said, then handed the medical kit to the two nurses, asking them to treat the injured special police officer.
"Comrade Special Police, allow me to introduce myself. My name is Lin Yuan, this is my girlfriend Wu Tian, and the one who just went downstairs to get things is her sister. We have formed our own post-apocalyptic self-help team. I am the captain. What do you call yourselves?"
Post-apocalyptic self-help team?
Wang Zhihai had some ideas. He really admired Lin Yuan. He could remain calm in the face of a sudden biological disaster, understand the importance of unity, and strategize against zombies.
"My name is Wang Zhihai. I am the captain of the city's special police detachment. This special police officer, Zhao Mengnan, is my colleague," Wang Zhihai said, pointing to a male special police officer with a scar on his face.
"Hello, my name is Zhao Mengnan. I'm an assault specialist in the special police force. This scar on my face was from a criminal throwing a homemade grenade at me, hahaha, don't mind it." The man laughed heartily, completely unconcerned about how the scar on his face affected his appearance.
Mengnan? Looking at the muscular outline under the combat uniform, Lin Yuan nodded in agreement. He was indeed a fierce man.
"We certainly don't mind, and we thank you for your contributions," Lin Yuan said sincerely, making Zhao Mengnan a little embarrassed.
"That female special police officer is Mu Qingtian. She's our team's sniper."
A female sniper, that's rare.
"The one next to her wearing a white short-sleeved shirt is Lin Qingyan, and the one wearing a Pikachu short-sleeved shirt is Zhou Ping. Both of them are nurses from the county people's hospital."
"The boy in the black short-sleeved shirt is Zhu Mingjun. He's a sophomore in college, and a survivor we rescued on the road. He killed two zombies, and he's a good person."
That's a good young man. Lin Yuan gave him a thumbs up. Zhu Mingjun reciprocated with two thumbs up.
"The little sister next to him is Zhao Anjing. She's Mengnan's sister. She was in the hospital getting treatment when the incident happened."
Lin Yuan looked at Zhao Anjing. She had pigtails and wore heavy eye shadow, making her look like a delinquent student.
Zhao Mengnan looked at Lin Yuan and frowned slightly. He quickly explained, "Anjing is actually a good person. It's just that her family doesn't pay much attention to her. When that person fired, it was Anjing who rushed forward to push him down."
"Hahaha, I didn't mean anything by it," Lin Yuan chuckled awkwardly. He had only frowned, and it was noticed. "I was just curious how her eye shadow hadn't smudged after so many days."
"I carry it with me. If it smudges, I just reapply it," Zhao Anjing replied. She then kept looking at Lin Yuan, a hint of fear in her eyes, but she forced herself to appear calm.
The air suddenly became quiet, and then he felt a strong grip on his waist.
"Hiss..." He turned his head to see Wu Tian's expression, as if to say, "If you can't speak, then don't!"
