Chapter 006: Fury Against the Survivors

Kill these two men, a faint sense of pleasure surged within Li Lang. He coldly looked at the three women before him and said: "You are free now, you may leave."

Due to the inherent dominance that high-level zombies have over ordinary zombies, Li Lang paid no attention to the zombies wandering inside. He simply found a corner and lay down to sleep peacefully, setting off whenever he woke up.

"This is in consideration of the fact that you saved us; otherwise, we would have opened fire long ago. You must understand that the infected are also carriers!" shouted the woman with the gun, as if trying to convince herself of something. She then moved her lips and, with great difficulty, uttered three words: "I'm sorry..."

At that moment, an ordinary zombie staggered around the street corner, and the intimidation of the fat zombie was finally declared null and void with his death

Others only saw Li Lang press down on Brother Zhang, and then blood gushed out like a fountain, splattering all over Li Lang, while Brother Zhang convulsed and fell down.

Upon seeing the gun barrel protruding from the ground, Li Lang's expression changed dramatically. He suddenly bent down and shifted to the right, avoiding the direction of the gun. However, to his surprise, after the gunshot rang out, he still felt a searing pain in his shoulder; it was a shotgun

Li Lang took aim at the entrance and leaped down

However, the greatest gain in recent days has been the discovery of the best hiding place, which is underground! If there is a basement, Li Lang will go directly inside; if not, he will use a serrated tooth to dig a large pit and cover it with something. This can significantly reduce unnecessary troubles, as his strength is still insufficient. He can barely match even a zombie with two pieces of bone armor, and the bone armor on his arm has not fully solidified. This means that if one piece of bone armor represents a first-level zombie, Li Lang can at most be considered a first-level and a half.

Li Lang smiled mischievously, whatever, the boat will naturally reach the bridge when it gets there, these days of being a zombie are not too bad either, at least I have become much stronger, just like that woman said, I just want to survive

"Is it for survival?" he muttered to himself, "I was too naive." Indeed, he then realized that a significant part of his heart still lingered in the relatively stable society before the chaos erupted, yet he had not truly acknowledged that the current world had completely reverted to a primordial state of the survival of the fittest. Everything, for the sake of survival

"You were bitten by a zombie? It's surprising that it didn't kill you; you must be quite lucky." Two men stood before Li Lang, one tall and overweight holding a shotgun, the other lean and tall wielding a semi-automatic pistol, gazing at him coldly.

They are fighting over something! Li Lang immediately made a judgment, and at that moment, a strange fragrance wafted into his nose. This fragrance was actually quite faint, but it was sufficient for a zombie. There is a treasure! ... It seems that the owner of this scent is the very object that the zombies are competing for ...

The tall and thin figure saw Li Lang had already arrived beside him, and with a frantic shout, he immediately fired the cluster gun in his hand, only to be blocked by Zhang Ge's corpse.

What was initially thought to be a mere conflict among ordinary zombies unexpectedly turned into a cacophony of their roars echoing from that direction after a while. Moreover, the street I was on began to resonate with the sound of rapid footsteps, clearly indicating that a horde of two hundred zombies was rushing over.

Li Lang's expression changed dramatically; he realized that the moans he had just heard were actually produced in this manner! Looking at the other two women, who appeared dazed and disheveled, a surge of anger rose within him. These two scoundrel men had actually treated these women as tools for their own release, living like tyrants in this basement! Moreover, what he could least tolerate was the insult to his parents. The middle-aged man had the audacity to utter such derogatory remarks, which had already touched Li Lang's sensitive spot!

Li Lang was taken aback, and at the same time, a wave of helplessness surged within him, leaving him devoid of even the strength to feel anger. He looked at the other two girls; one had a vacant expression, clearly driven mad by torment, while the other, the one who had just been violently assaulted by the middle-aged man, was also glaring at Li Lang with hostility. He believed that if he had revealed his sharp-toothed hand just now, they would have pulled the trigger without hesitation.

Zhang Ge clearly agreed to the suggestion of the tall, thin man, cursing under his breath as he took a few steps forward, raising his shotgun and preparing to shoot at Li Lang

"Where to?" One of the beautiful women smiled sadly and said, "Where do you want us to go? Our friends and family have either turned into zombies or been killed by these two guys. Outside, there are zombies everywhere. We can make it there?" As she spoke, she moved to the side, suddenly crouched down, grabbed the shotgun, and pointed it at Li Lang

He let out a muffled grunt and shouted, "Don't shoot, I am human!" At that moment, he suddenly realized the fact that he had already become a zombie. He had been too careless just now and almost met his end in this gutter. Now, he had no way to be faster than a bullet, so he could only muddle through and pass himself off as a human.

The tall, thin man impatiently said: "Brother Zhang, just shoot him; I can see this kid is about to turn into a zombie. Killing him and having fun with women is the right thing to do. If you don't take action, I will."

With a sudden clarity in his heart, Li Lang charged towards the ordinary zombie, his claw-like hand opened wide, instantly killing it in a split second, and then he continued on his way forward

On the contrary, you, you must have been scratched by a zombie, right? You should be the one to leave; otherwise, who knows if you will infect us after you turn into a zombie! I just want to survive, to live well!

Zhang Ge hurriedly prepared to fire a second shot, but he never had that opportunity again; Li Lang had already reached him. Li Lang crouched down just in time to block Zhang Ge's stout body, and his left hand had already pressed against Zhang Ge's chest. In an instant, the technique of the Split-Tooth Hand transformed, and he swiftly extracted Zhang Ge's heart.

Thus, Li Lang gradually approached the city center at a pace of two to three blocks each day

Alas. Li Lang suddenly recalled his current situation. After several days of battles and inhumane living conditions, his body was covered in filth and dirt, and there were dozens, if not hundreds, of wounds of various sizes. Although his recovery ability was astonishing, allowing him to heal fractures overnight, he had forgotten to clean those wounds and the bloodstains.

However, even if he is lucky, he won't survive for more than three days, the tall and thin man laughed heartily

That noon, he had just eaten a meal of frozen meat in the pit he had dug himself when he heard a series of angry roars coming from not far in the west. The sounds seemed to be separated by no more than two streets. He recalled that the zombie leader there appeared to be a tough-skinned, thick-bodied creature with two horns on its head. Who had it gotten into a fight with?

I never expected to encounter such a situation! The days of slaughter have nearly worn away his innocence; even he himself has not realized that, unknowingly, he has become increasingly irritable and bloodthirsty!

A woman's startled cry was heard. Inside, there were two men and three young women dressed provocatively. This was a temporary storage room in the supermarket, filled with food and beverages, and due to lack of ventilation, it emitted a strange odor.

The girl slowly approached the middle-aged man and obediently knelt down, but did not move again; instead, she gazed at Li Lang and the * picture * book. The middle-aged man, seeing that Li Lang had not left, shouted angrily: "Little bastard, I told you to leave, didn't you hear me?"

Li Lang cast a deep glance at them and said, "Take care of yourselves." He then turned and crawled out through the exit, the sound of the door closing behind him was evident, as they were clearly terrified of becoming zombies

Hearing Li Lang's voice, the gun barrel waved slightly, signaling Li Lang to come over. Li Lang cautiously inched forward, keeping close to the ground. The person inside, hearing the silence, also retracted the gun.

A few more days have passed, yet this journey has made Li Lang realize that he had overestimated his own abilities. The leaders of the zombies he encountered were all mutated zombies with two pieces of bone armor.

Li Lang had already gathered all his strength. Seeing Brother Zhang raise the gun, he immediately dashed towards the tall, thin man, simultaneously covering his head with his left hand and drawing out a nail gun with his right hand

This also led him to discover a pattern: the closer one gets to the city center, the stronger the zombies become. Although these two-shelled zombies are not as grotesque as the fat zombie that Li Lang encountered, they are still exceptionally formidable. Some of them are nearly on par with that fat zombie, and it often takes a fierce battle to escape, with only rare strokes of luck allowing for the killing of one.

In the blink of an eye, within just a few breaths, before those women could react, both men over here had been killed by Li Lang

He seems to still be somewhat unaccustomed to his current state, constantly thinking about issues from a human perspective in his subconscious, when in fact he has long since become a zombie. For the first time, Li Lang seriously contemplates his life positioning; no, perhaps it should now be referred to as "zombie positioning".

He did not encounter any survivors again in these basements; instead, he found two or three nests of zombies, which seemed to be the survivors and librarians who had mutated after hiding inside.

Listening to the increasingly sharp and furious roars from outside, and inhaling the intoxicating scent, Li Lang could no longer remain seated. He lifted the covering above him and dashed towards the battlefield with a swift stride

Seeing Li Lang remain silent, the middle-aged man in front holding a shotgun smirked wickedly and pointed the gun at Li Lang's forehead, cursing: "You little bastard, I don't know when you got infected by the zombies or how you found this basement, but I don't care about that. Now you better obediently return the way you came; die where you came from!" After saying this, he ignored Li Lang's fluctuating expression, zipped up his pants, and shouted at a young girl: "You little slut, come over here and continue serving your master!"

With a sudden "bang," Li Lang felt a tingling warmth in his thigh, realizing he had indeed been grazed. Fortunately, Brother Zhang did not anticipate Li Lang's sudden outburst, which caused him to miss his target.

Some of these zombies are very fast, some have tough skin and thick flesh, while others are quite cunning. Li Lang even encountered a zombie with bone blades growing from its arms, which reminded him of the terrifying shadow zombie that had once frightened him. Fortunately, this creature only had one arm that was mutated and was not that sturdy; otherwise, Li Lang would have been in serious trouble. Even so, he managed to escape by using a bomb tactic to disorient the creature.

Then Li Lang leaped up and kicked the gunman's hand, producing a sharp "crack" sound as his wrist broke, and the submachine gun was kicked aside. Li Lang then pressed the nail gun against his temple and pulled the trigger

Li Lang walked out of the supermarket with a gloomy expression. He took a deep breath of the air, and the joy he felt upon discovering human survivors had long since vanished, leaving only a profound sense of helplessness and sorrow. He did not know whether he should cry or laugh, but his heart was truly weighed down.
