Chapter 3, Biohazard

Hmm, it seems that this... Hu Fei furrowed his brow and recalled, "The strength is a bit excessive, but the body is not agile, just like a sixty or seventy-year-old person, only able to open its mouth to bite."

The elevators and transport tracks within the base have now become inoperative, and the only way to reach the base exit is through the safety passage. However, due to the unexpectedly difficult nature of the zombies, everyone quickly found themselves in a predicament.

In film and television works, scenes where a zombie's head is severed with a single blow, akin to smashing a watermelon, do not unfold before the audience. Not to mention that these zombies have only recently died; even if their flesh has decayed to mush, their bones are equally difficult to rot, and the human skull is the hardest part of the skeleton.

As he stepped out of the medical room and observed the sluggish movements of these zombies, he felt somewhat unconcerned. However, after fighting until now, he could only feel his arms aching, his body weak, and an uncontrollable fear surged anew in his heart

Feeling the immense elasticity of the two plump spheres on her chest, the murderer pressed against Xiao Lian's cheek, extending his tongue to lick her warm, soft earlobe, gently blowing a warm, humid breath into the curve of her ear

"Xiao Lian, let go of Qin Lun and come over here!" Seeing Lin Feng's actions, Hu Fei seemed to recall something, and her previously calm and serene face finally changed slightly as she anxiously shouted

"Hey, what's wrong with you? Get up quickly, those things are coming after us!" Seeing Qin Lun's pained expression, Xiao Lian hesitated and stopped in her tracks, turning back to support the young man's arm.

Ah, I remember now, you are the great demon king Qin Lun! The little confused nurse finally recalled, exclaiming in surprise, she shrank back behind Hu Fei, only peeking out her little head, her big eyes blinking brightly as she looked at Qin Lun

Bang! Lin Feng swung the iron stand used for hanging IV drips and forcefully struck it against a zombie's head, knocking it down to the ground. If it were a normal person who had been hit like that, they would at least suffer a concussion and be unable to get up for at least half a day

Bring the medical kit, find a longer iron rod or support, and we will charge out. Otherwise, once these things block the entrance, we will be left waiting for death! Qin Lun shouted sternly, yet the smile on his face remained undiminished, still radiating warmth and cheerfulness.

Hey! Qin Lun covered his face with his left hand, and in a flash, he reached out and grasped the delicate white neck of Xiao Lian, pulling her sharply to his front, their bodies instantly pressed together like lovers.

Observing the difficult situation of their side, Qin Lun, who was responsible for blocking the pursuers at the rear of the team, finally lost his smile, his face devoid of color, as beads of sweat began to emerge densely on his forehead

Outside there are ? ! '' Lin Feng was startled and hurried to the door, peering through the crack to look outside. When he saw more than ten figures staggering towards the infirmary in the corridor, his expression changed drastically. `` You all come quickly, help me block the door ! ''

Bang! At some point, Qin Lun's right hand had grasped a black dagger with a blade as sharp as a razor, and without looking back, he thrust it into the eye socket of a zombie behind him. The black tip of the blade protruded from the back of the zombie's head, accompanied by a slight convulsive tremor of the zombie, as a trickle of pale yellow brain matter dripped from the blade.

I believe in you!" Suddenly, Qin Lun, who had been silent all along, revealed a smile, "Did you lock the door just now because there are other zombies outside the infirmary?"

"It has come to this, of course there are dead people!" Lin Feng rolled his eyes in response; he had seen many dead bodies in the death race and felt no discomfort.

No, what I mean is, before we beat him to death, he was already a dead man!" Xiao Lian waved her chubby little fist in defiance.

"Don't mind me, you all hurry and leave!" Qin Lun trembled as he covered his face with his left hand, his bangs soaked with sweat sticking to his forehead, appearing to be in extreme pain. Supporting himself with his right hand against the passage, his fingers splayed wide, he had dug five deep grooves into the wall. A low growl emanated from his throat, "Hurry, he... he is coming out..."

Realizing that they were very likely unable to escape the safe passage and would meet their end in the mouths of zombies, Qin Lun suddenly felt a wave of dizziness in his mind. Trembling, he hunched over and began to retch.

You can see for yourselves! Hu Fei looked at Qin Lun in surprise, paused for a moment, and then pulled Xiao Lian aside to make room.

"Hey!" Lin Feng gasped as he waved the iron frame, looking helplessly at the more than ten zombies huddled together in front of him

... ...

During the brief preparation process just now, everyone had already discussed how to escape from the base. The entire Area 91 base is a massive structure with a niche design. Since death row inmates must always be prepared for temporal and spatial transfer, the cell block is located on the top floor of the building, approximately ten floors above the base's exit below

In other parts of the base, apart from a few fortunate individuals, it is feared that the remaining survivors will likely perish at the hands of the zombies. Rarely do survivors realize that those former colleagues and comrades who stagger to their feet are no longer living beings, and moreover, the modern weapons in their hands have become mere scrap metal

The Dark Lord! Qin Lun shyly sniffed and glanced into the infirmary, then said softly: "The smell of blood here is quite strong. What has happened? And what are those things outside?"

Before her, Qin Lun had straightened his body, and his face, covered by his left hand, revealed a smile once more. However, a corner of his pupil, visible through the gaps of his fingers, already bore a hint of vivid crimson.

What is wrong with you? Don't scare me. You are the great demon king Qin Lun; how can you just die here like this!" Looking at the zombie that had already approached Qin Lun from behind, Xiao Lian's voice carried a hint of sobbing, her bright eyes shimmering with tears as she desperately pulled at Qin Lun's arm, trying to help him up

"Do not block the door!" Qin Lun smiled and waved his hand, then turned to the two beautiful women and asked, "You two delicate ladies can kill the zombies transformed from federal soldiers; these creatures should be easy to deal with, right?"

Xiao Lian was momentarily taken aback, ceasing her argument. Although she was a bit scatterbrained, she was not lacking in discernment. Beside her, Hu Fei and Lin Feng turned pale, as the two had just quietly discussed the situation in the cell area.

I am not your Qin Lun the Great Demon King, you may call me Joy, Joy Foster

Faced with more than ten zombies in the corridor of the infirmary, the group, armed with only a few iron frames, could only fight and retreat, slowly making their way towards the safe passage

"Xiao Lian means... he is a living dead!" Hu Fei explained with a bitter smile, "He was originally going to the infirmary for a routine check-up. After the incident at the base, when Xiao Lian and I woke up, we found that he had no pulse and no body temperature. However... after about ten minutes, he came back to life and began to attack us..."

He is a dead man!" Xiao Lian clung to Hu Fei's slender waist and said weakly

Rescue will not arrive in a short time; it is feared that over 99% of the people in this base have turned into zombies. The only way for the survivors to ensure their safety is to escape the base! Qin Lun shook his head and smiled indifferently, saying, "These zombies are probably acting on instinct. The medical room is filled with the smell of formalin, which has temporarily masked the stench of blood. However, over time, those creatures will still be able to smell your presence!"

Lin Feng, at the forefront, finally noticed this side. Observing Qin Lun's unusual condition, his expression suddenly changed dramatically. His fatigued body abruptly unleashed a surge of strength, consecutively knocking several zombies away, as he quickly rushed down the corridor, increasing the distance between himself and the other three individuals

You... the girl pouted in anger, turned her head to look back, but immediately froze in place, a chill rising from the depths of her heart

However, this zombie merely shook its head as if enraged, let out a wild roar, and staggered to its feet, lunging once again towards Lin Feng

Although the zombies pursuing from behind could not catch up with them, the commotion from the struggle in the safe passage attracted the attention of the zombies on the lower floors, who began to gradually enter the safe passage. While the scattered zombies could not temporarily block the group's advance, the increasing number of zombies ahead forced the group to slow down, facing the immense danger of being besieged from both front and back

Why? Xiao Lian was momentarily taken aback, feeling a bit confused. However, she suddenly noticed that the arm of the man supporting her had stopped trembling, and he abruptly pulled away from her embrace, nearly causing her to stumble.

The man's smile, which once evoked a warm spring feeling, now appears so grotesque and twisted beneath the palm that covers his face, resembling a demon from hell, exuding an unmistakable aura of malevolence

Hurry, quickly block the door with the medical cabinet... Huh, you are a prisoner, strange, I feel like I've seen you before!" The nurse, a light beauty, shouted nervously. When her gaze fell on Qin Lun, it was as if she had discovered a new continent; her large eyes widened in surprise, likely having completely forgotten that she had just conducted a physical examination on this murderer a few days ago.

Qin Lun and Lin Feng exchanged a glance and stepped into the infirmary. Inside, the room was in disarray, with medical equipment scattered haphazardly all over the floor. Most surprisingly, on the right side of the stretcher, lay a federal soldier missing his crown, with red and white substances covering the ground.

"Xiao Lian, come back, he is Joy Foster!" Hu Fei, with a stern expression, pulled the little nurse back behind her. Compared to the scatterbrained Xiao Lian, the ice-cold beauty clearly had a much better memory.

With a survival rate of only 10% in the prison area, there are probably very few people left in the base aside from the death row inmates who have escaped. The reason is simple: zombies lack intelligence, move slowly, and pose the greatest threat to survivors during the initial moments after they awaken

Even if the iron doors of the cell block are damaged, the zombies within are unlikely to be able to open them. The surviving death row inmates are just in the initial stages of awakening, having evaded the attack of the horde. During their escape from the cell block, whether they encounter humans or zombies, all are enemies to the death row inmates. Unless they are cornered by hundreds of zombies, it is exceedingly easy for killers like the disciple Hansen.

Indeed! There is a group outside! Two beautiful women, one tall and one short, exchanged glances and nodded repeatedly like chicks pecking at rice.

The others were taken aback, while Lin Feng and Hu Fei immediately sprang into action. Xiao Lian, however, puffed out her cheeks and glared at Qin Lun defiantly, saying, "It's all your fault for banging on the door so loudly just now; otherwise, we would have definitely been able to hide until help arrived"

This is a fact; that zombie even bit Sister Hufei, and I was the one who killed it!" Xiao Lian said, feeling a bit shy as she twisted her body.

"Wait, are you saying... he is a zombie!" Lin Feng looked at the two in disbelief, "I didn't misunderstand, did I?"
