July 4th, 2015. 11 p.m. Eleven hours since eschatology.
At night, everywhere in the world was shrouded by panic as the roaring of zombies became clearer. Countless zombies broke windows and unfixed doors, walking on the streets. They smelled the air, sensing humans, and went eating them.
Cities were trapped and streets were blocked. Communication was crippled.
Helplessness, hesitation, desperation.
On the highway, Chu Han drove the G55 and a car was tailing him closely. The entire highway was dark as the power supply system was broken. The lamps that the country provided with so much money turned useless.
It was lucky that they set went out early. There were only several broken cars on the road and any zombies that appeared were crushed by Chu Han directly.
"Brother Chu," Fatty Chen sitting beside Chu Han suddenly said quiveringly, "Do we have an air conditioner? The wind is entering from the window behind. I’m cold."
Although early July was summer, the temperature dropped sharply with the coming of eschatology. It was cold right now but not as cold during winter.
Peeking at the long clothes and fat of Chen Shaoye, he became speechless and even doubted that there were two people with the same appearance and the same name; otherwise, how could such a weak body have the 20th most powerful combat capability in the country during his previous incarnation?
You should know that masters were aplenty after ten years of eschatology. The combat capability of Chu Han in previous his incarnation was only ranked in the millionth, but his physical strength was at a terrifying level and he was not afraid of any third or fourth-grade zombie.
As for the rank 20 Chen Shaoye, Chu Han found it hard to image what kind of existence he was. However, the current Chen Shaoye was so weak!
Bzz bzz bzz.
The radio was fiddled with but, as expected, there was only the noise of static. However, the good news was that the fact those noises appeared proved that the broadcasting tower was under repair.
Fatty Chen was not brave enough to say anything when he was ignored by Chu Han, so he only curled up his body to reduce his presence.
"Chu Han, I don"t see any cars in this area so how about having a rest here?" The voice came from Zhang Ziyu. Walkie-talkies were provided by Fan Wei who was extremely silent and only focused on driving.
Chu Han looked around. The area was dark and seemingly without danger. Actually, it was the same taking a rest anywhere as danger could be anywhere. Besides, they had driven for several hours and they did need to have some rest, "Yes, let’s stop."
Two vehicles were parked at the curb. For the sake of saving petrol and not attracting zombies from the engines’ noise, the cars were shut off.
There was no noise on the highway. Without any trace of light, the endless darkness made people scared from the bottom of their heart. Rumble! Chen Shaoye swallowed and curled up nervously in the seat. He didn’t even dare turn his head around. Suddenly, a hand patted his shoulder.
"Ah!!!" Chen Shaoye made a h.e.l.lish scream.
"s.h.i.+t!" Chu Han was so mad, "Why are you so nervous and scared?!"
"No, no." Chen Shaoye was scared and become weak and limp. He was covered with cold sweat, "Brother Chu, you scared me."
"What the f.u.c.k?!" Chu Han cursed, "Get off the car."
"What? Going off the car? What do you mean by that? Can I stay in your car?" Chen Shaoye asked, his nerves taut.
Chu Han’s hand which held the ax paused and he looked at Chen Shaoye strangely, "If you need to pee or s.h.i.+t, do it right now. Otherwise, you’ll have to hold them in all the way."
The fat guy kept eating when he was in the car. He should have excretions even if his digestive system was really good.
Chen Shaoye replied, "I-I can still bear them."
Chu Han was totally speechless. This fat guy was something alright!
"Brother Chu, I don’t want to leave!" Chen Shaoye was at the point of crying, "I am scared of the darkness. I am afraid of zombies."
Chu Han’s face became dark and he went to the copilot position with his ax in hand. He opened the door and dragged the fat man out of the car, "Just go and p.o.o.p. This may be your last time doing it."
Danger was omnipresent in eschatology and the physiological needs may not be solved timely. Now, it was just the beginning and it was rare to be able to park the cars and casually pee.
Chen Shaoye was planning to stay in the car, but he saw the ax s.h.i.+ning with cold light in Chu Han’s hand. The dark blood stimulated his psychological line continuously. Chen Shaoye, without realizing it himself, just went off the car absentmindedly. He ran to the roadside and loosed his belt to pee….
He suddenly thought that the one in front of him was more terrible than zombies.
From behind, Zhang Ziyu, Fan Wei, and Gu Xiaotong went off the car in order. At this time, Chu Han had finished everything with his fastest speed and stood guard beside the G55 with his ax.
Zhang Ziyu and Fan Wei went to Chen Shaoye’s side. It was better to have company in the dark night. At least psychologically, everyone thought so.
Gu Xiaotong came to Chu Han with quick short steps for no reason and she showed her white and delicate collarbone carelessly.
Chu Han tightened the hand with ax straightly and there was no emotional fluctuation in his eyes. He just said silently, "Do you have any problems?"
"I want to go to the toilet. You should come with me and guard me," Gu Xiaotong said in a small voice but her expression was natural. In her eyes, she had ignored Chu Han’s previous rude behavior and Chu Han should apologize to her, agreeing to her every requests. She peeked at Chu Han and she found that he was better than Zhang Ziyu since he was not afraid of zombies. Chu Han said crisply, "Three men are over there and you have nothing to worry about."
"They are male!" Gu Xiaotong was angry, "I am a female and how can I go with them?" The eschatology was only explored for ten hours and normal female still care about the menial stuff. However, everyone would soon cease to care for folk customs would even become open all of a sudden. Most females became prost.i.tutes in a team of survivors only for a meal.
"I am also a male," Chu Han rejected directly and he would not leave the car of food. Besides, he did not trust anyone.
Gu Xiaotong was shocked and her face became shameful. Keep dreaming! She did not ask you to go with her, but to be a guard.
Chu Han did not care about Gu Xiaotong at all. His eyebrow scrunched when feeling the night air, feeling the temperature that became chilly abruptly.
Taking a deep breath, Gu Xiaotong was afraid to say anything too excessive since she knew that Chu Han never left his ax for even a second. The current Chu Han was not the b.u.mpkin that she looked down upon in her memory, but a man that could kill zombies casually, even cras.h.i.+ng dozens of them without blinking.
She decided to keep moving, even dragging her collar to pretend she was so hot to show her white and delicate collarbone[Personally, if I see someone"s collarbone, my first thought would be "What would it feel yanking that out?" Of course I never followed that impulse. But the curiosity is killing me.], "I broke up with Zhang Ziyu since he was too irresponsible. Could I have a rest in your car tonight?"
