As time passed, the sky was overcast with thick clouds, and night descended early upon the earth.

Everyone ate something in their vehicles; those in the RV with space for movement went about their daily training as usual, while those cramped in the Mercedes-Benz G and Prado stole a moment of leisure, either listening to the radio or chatting.

“The water level has dropped quite a bit, probably only about ten centimeters left. We’ll definitely be able to set off tomorrow morning. It’s great, no danger after all!”

At 8 PM, Zhang Su leaned out and shone a flashlight on the road. The surface was shimmering with waves, and using the zombie corpses and tires as reference points, he could clearly gauge the water depth.

“Uncle, I guess there won’t be any cartoon watching activity tonight, right?”

Pang Dakun, with an expectant look on his face, walked up behind Zhang Su and asked.

Zhang Su thought this guy was amusing and laughed, “Correct answer, you win an ‘early to bed, early to rise’ experience card. Yu Qing, you’re on the first watch today, Zhuzi you take over at midnight, and then it’s Xiaoshan’s turn. I’ll go inform the vehicles behind…”

The water was too deep, so Zhang Su was reluctant to get out of the car and used a relay method to pass the message to the vehicles behind.

After arranging the watch duty, Zhang Su lay down on the bed to sleep early. At this critical stage, indulgence wasn’t advisable; it was more suitable to rest and conserve energy.

In the post-apocalypse, sleeping rough was the norm. Having an RV to stay in was already a thousand times better than many survivors, but while metal can block wind and rain, it couldn’t provide the safety that concrete and steel could, so no one slept soundly.

Not knowing how much time had passed, Zhang Su felt a shaking and suddenly opened his eyes.

“Brother Su, more zombies are coming, lots of them!”

Zhong Xiaoshan’s voice came, with a slight tremble.

“A lot?”

Zhang Su slapped Zheng Xinyu awake next to him and simultaneously jumped out of bed to get dressed, urgently saying, “Quick, notify the people in the cars behind!”

If the situation weren’t serious, he was confident that Zhong Xiaoshan wouldn’t feel afraid!

Zheng Xinyu uttered a soft sound, feeling the hurried action beside her, and her brain instantly cleared. Without asking, she began getting dressed and grabbed her weapon.

Zhong Xiaoshan, without another word, took the powerful flashlight and went to inform the people in the back.

Before everyone could even wake from their dreams, the banging noises resounded across the ground.

Zhang Su looked out through the windshield, and even though it was pitch black, he could sense the terrifying number of zombies from the dense sounds!

“Damn it, big brother, just like this afternoon, this group of zombies was supposed to head north, but they suddenly stopped next to us!”

Zhao Dezhu, who was sleeping in the RV’s living room, opened his eyes, sat up, and could see outside, understanding the situation earlier than Zhang Su.

“Let’s first see how many there are!”

Zhang Su opened the window, lit a flare, and threw it forcefully forward.

As the light blazed across the sky, everyone felt a chill on their scalps. Yu Qing’s legs involuntarily went weak, and she would have collapsed on the spot if Zhao Dezhu hadn’t held her.

The flare was part of the Mercedes-Benz RV’s camping equipment, a type of professional-grade exploration gear that could even burn ignited underwater.

The brief flight time illuminated a large area, and within the visible range, a dense horde of zombies covered the street; some were pushed into the roadside ditches. The sheer number was terrifying.

It couldn’t compare to the horde that Zhang Su and the others faced while hiding in the dry cleaner, but it definitely exceeded the attack on the Yileiwen Convenience Store!

A large group of zombies howled at the flare’s light, immediately drawn to it, but the flare soon fell into the horde and was somehow extinguished.

“Why is there a zombie horde?” Zheng Xinyu tightly gripped a baseball bat with one hand and clutched Zhang Su’s arm firmly with the other.

There were too many; it was suffocating.

By no means an exaggerated estimate, there were no fewer than a thousand zombies approaching from afar. This was an extremely frightening number, implying that each person needed to slaughter at least one hundred zombies to completely resolve the crisis.

This was an impossible task…

Even if a hundred zombies lined up for slaying, it would take substantial time and not everyone might have the stamina for it, not to mention that zombies wouldn’t stand idly by and would attack fiercely!

Clang! Clang! Clang!

The Mercedes-Benz RV was being pushed by more and more zombies, causing all the people inside to feel a continuous shaking.

Luckily, this RV weighed over ten tons by itself, and with water and food loaded, the weight reached a staggering twenty tons, withstanding the first zombie wave without being overturned.

But if the zombies continued to surround them, that would not be good!

Huff.

“Damn it, damn it, kill you, damn!”

Just as Zhang Su was rapidly devising a countermeasure, a window was opened on one side, and there was Pang Dakun jabbing downward with a crowbar while cursing.

“Go drag him down, this isn’t working. We need to drive and break through. Find a way to notify the cars behind us to turn around quickly and lure away some of the zombies!”

Zhang Su made up his mind; staying trapped inside the car was definitely not an option. The swarm of zombies was enough to swallow all five of their vehicles.

However, before he could start the car, a figure suddenly shot out from the window Pang Dakun had opened!

“Good…Fortune!”

Zheng Xinyu reached out with one hand, as if trying to grab the escaping Corgi, while the other hand quickly covered her mouth, her eyes wide open in shock.

Woof woof woof!

As Zhang Su turned his head to ask what had happened, a loud, penetrating bark echoed through the window, and he turned to see Good Fortune standing on the road barking fiercely at the horde of zombies.

Howl oo oo…

The zombies seemed to respond to Good Fortune, with countless of them roaring and immediately being attracted by Good Fortune’s barking!

Good Fortune stood on one side of the road, its lonely figure facing hundreds of zombies calmly. It barked loudly, leaping to the other side of the roadside ditch, its intention obvious. It wanted to lure some zombies away to help the convoy escape!

“My Lucky…”

Zheng Xinyu covered her mouth, looking into the darkness. She didn’t know where Good Fortune was, having to rely on the sound to discern.

Even though Good Fortune acted in time, the Mercedes motorhome was still hit by too many zombies, causing the entire vehicle to shake. Even more terrifying, some zombies pushed down others in front, actually starting to form a human pyramid!

Once they mastered this skill, it wouldn’t be just motorhomes; even city walls couldn’t stop them!

At this moment, both the Prado and the Mercedes G-class started up, accompanied by resounding horn blasts. Bright headlights illuminated the entire road, revealing the zombies’ fearsome faces.

Bang bang bang…

A series of crashing sounds echoed behind the Mercedes motorhome, as the Prado and the Mercedes G-class turned around in unison on the road. With their horns blaring continuously, the vehicles slowly moved in the direction of Shuwa Village!

The people in the two cars never thought they’d have a day where they learned from a small dog…

“Bozai, Xiaoxue!”

Zhang Su held onto the seat, trying his best not to fall amidst the shaking. From the large screen, he saw the two cars slowly pulling away with the zombies. His expression was complicated.

“Open the window, kill them, don’t let the zombies break the window! Be careful!”

The two cars, along with Good Fortune, diverted a large number of zombies, but there were still quite a few surrounding the Mercedes motorhome. In such circumstances, even starting the engine was futile. Unless it was a modified icebreaker or a special high-power vehicle, there was simply no way to rush out!

No one dared to slack off, trying their best to steady their bodies while frantically opening the windows to kill the zombies trying to climb up, their strikes ruthless, not daring to show any negligence. Even Yu Qing was furiously stabbing; in the life-or-death moment, they couldn’t afford any carelessness.

The three people in the Tiguan were almost scared to death.

At this moment, zombies were scraping past the Tiguan’s side. The small SUV was like a lone boat in the tide of zombies, even being pushed a few inches to the side after several collisions.

They had never experienced such a scene before.

Wang Xin’s face was pale with fear, trying hard to stay calm and said, “W-what do we do now?”

“Reverse, quickly, reverse, catch up to the Prado and the G-class!”

Liu Tianji growled lowly, his face extremely contorted.

“Re-re-reverse…”

“Hurry up, stop dawdling! Slam the gas and reverse, if you don’t move quickly, you’ll be worse than a dog!”

Seeing Wang Xin a bit flustered, Liu Tianji hurriedly gave him a push.

Wang Xin finally snapped out of it, pressed the start button, shifted into reverse, and slammed on the gas, directly knocking over several zombies, then ran over the zombie bodies. The bouncing car body made everyone inside jolted violently.

Fortunately, after that, the zombies hadn’t filled the entire road, and they quickly found a chance to turn around. Even the Prado could turn around with ease, let alone the smaller Tiguan body.

Wang Xin turned the steering wheel sharply and saw Liu Tianji pressing the horn nonstop. He glanced at his colleague and understood his intention.
