Chapter 71: Chapter 71: Not a Dead End

Leo Hale froze.

”Bianca White?

Is that you?”

Aside from her voice, which held a trace of familiarity, Leo Hale couldn’t recognize the girl’s appearance at all.

”Is that really... Leo Hale?”

Leo Hale did, however, recognize the other person.

He hadn’t expected to run into old friends here.

”Bryce Dolan, what are you guys doing here?”

Leo Hale asked in surprise.

But on second thought, he understood. ’Bianca White must be with Bryce Dolan now.’

”Get in the car first. We can catch up later when we have time.

We need to get out of here, fast.”

Behind Chester Pearson were seven or eight other survivors they had just rescued.

”What’s wrong?”

Ian Chandler asked. It was the first time he had seen such a grave expression on Chester Pearson’s face.

”The zombies from the mall are all out.

We’re likely to be surrounded. We probably can’t use our previous route.”

This was the scene they had just witnessed on the drone that had flown back to them.

The drone could only record; it had no signal to transmit the footage.

They only found out after the drone returned and they reviewed the footage it had captured.

Their recent departure had caused the mutated zombies inside the mall to riot.

The mall doors were broken.

Those zombies were very likely nearby now.

Everyone realized the gravity of the situation.

There were many routes around the mall.

If the zombies poured out and scattered, they would very likely be surrounded.

”I’ll lead the way,”

Nina Jacobs said.

The system map could help them avoid the most zombie-infested roads.

If an encounter was unavoidable, then they would just have to fight.

The mall’s zombies had already been split up, and there weren’t many mutated ones. In her eyes, it wasn’t a no-win situation.

”Are you familiar with the roads here too?”

Leo Hale asked.

”More than you are.”

Nina Jacobs slid directly into the driver’s seat.

”Everyone, keep up!”

Chester Pearson knew there was no more time to plan a new route.

Now, they could only rely on Nina Jacobs to lead.

However, one glance at the system map was all it took for Nina Jacobs to know that a fight was unavoidable today.

The roads ahead all showed red congested sections of varying degrees.

She could only choose the least congested route.

”It’s okay, Sis.

Even if we run into zombies, we can figure something else out.”

Worried that Nina Jacobs was too anxious, Ian Chandler tried to comfort her.

”There are a lot of intersections between these roads.

I’ll lead everyone toward wider roads that don’t merge with others.

It’s basically impossible to avoid the zombies now.

Everyone, prepare yourselves.”

Nina Jacobs said to Chester Pearson.

Her ”Five Senses Enhancement” was on cooldown and wouldn’t be available again for over two hours.

The number of zombies outside the car was increasing.

Gunshots rang out intermittently from the cars behind them. Although some zombies were hit and stopped in their tracks, it wasn’t enough to keep up with their increasing numbers.

Zombies were constantly pouring out from the shops along the street, from abandoned vehicles, and even from the shadows on the roadside.

THUD! THUD! THUD!

Nina Jacobs had already lost count of how many zombies she’d run over.

The expressions of everyone inside the car grew increasingly grim.

Seeing they were getting closer to the congested section, Nina Jacobs pulled over in a wide, open area.

”Why are we stopping?”

Chester Pearson asked. ’Shouldn’t we be trying to break through?’

”If we go any further, we’ll be even more caught off guard.

It’s better to prepare to fight here.”

Nina Jacobs’s words were quickly proven true.

Chester Pearson had already spotted a horde of zombies madly rushing toward them on the road ahead through his binoculars.

They were surrounded!

”On my command, stop the vehicles and eliminate all zombies!”

”More zombies ahead, ETA five minutes!”

”Yes, sir!”

Faced with this situation, none of the rescue team members backed down.

As Chester Pearson was giving orders, Nina Jacobs had already led a few people out of the vehicle and started fighting the surrounding zombies.

Wayne Warner, though silent, could dispatch a zombie in an instant.

Ian Chandler worked with Leo Hale and Chelsea Walsh. Whenever Chelsea Walsh used her Thunder Element Superpower to Control a zombie, he would immediately go in for the kill.

”A Gold Element mutated zombie?!”

Leo Hale spotted a zombie controlling a lamppost several meters long and swinging it rapidly toward them!

”Wayne Warner!”

The moment Nina Jacobs shouted, Wayne Warner steadily caught the thick lamppost for the group.

BAM!

Wayne Warner hurled the lamppost, instantly knocking down dozens of zombies.

But the zombies felt no pain, and they quickly got back up.

”Leave that Gold Element zombie to me.”

Leo Hale controlled a dagger, sending it flying toward the Gold Element zombie.

”This might not be the best time to say it, but you could really learn a thing or two from that zombie’s moves,”

Nina Jacobs said.

Mutated zombies could use their Superpowers more recklessly than Superpower Users, so fighting a mutated zombie of the same element could be inspiring for a Superpower User.

’Learn from a zombie...’

Although Leo Hale was indignant, he realized he really couldn’t have controlled that lamppost himself.

”Damn it. I guess I’ll have to kill you to prove I’m not useless.”

Leo Hale charged at the Gold Element mutated zombie again.

Gunshots rose and fell in waves.

Facing a dozen or so zombies nearby, Nina Jacobs charged forward, blade in hand.

Her swings were incredibly fast; the Fire Roaring Blade seemed as light as a feather in her hands.

Yet, it could take off a zombie’s head in an instant.

’A Thunder Element?’

Nina Jacobs had just killed a Water Element mutated zombie when another one suddenly dropped onto the roof of the car in front of her.

Sparks of electricity flickered in its hands, and the few sparse hairs left on its head stood on end.

ROAR!

Seeing Nina Jacobs climb onto the car roof as well, the Thunder Element mutated zombie roared and charged at her!

Meanwhile, in the sky to the northwest, a combat helicopter was slowly descending.

”How are there so many?

And Dad... how could he let Ian Chandler come to a place like this?”

A woman with long, wavy, tea-brown hair falling to her waist wore a worried expression, a noise-canceling headset over her ears.

On the ground not far away, zombies were running nonstop down every street.

They were all heading in the same direction, as if they had smelled something delicious.

”He’ll be fine with Chester Pearson there.

And even if something does happen, I’ll make sure they’re fine.”

The young man beside her piloted the helicopter, pushing the accelerator to the max.

”According to intel, that area is a level-two danger zone for the entire city,

and it has already been cleared according to emergency protocols, making it suitable for a squad rescue.”

Vaughn Rowan looked at the screen in his hand, then glanced at the situation on the ground below and shook his head.

This area was clearly no longer a level-two danger zone.

A zombie horde this large was at least level-four.

”It seems the information from the shelter is too outdated.”

After Vaughn Rowan spoke, the woman grew even more anxious.

”Faster, go faster!

I’ve found them!

Look, what’s that?”

The woman stared intently at the scene below.

On the roof of a truck, flashes of fire and lightning flared simultaneously.

A human woman was fighting a zombie.

Lightning Balls appeared frequently, but the blade-wielding woman managed to dodge them perfectly every time.

Nina Jacobs held the Fire Roaring Blade as her other hand swept across its surface.

Where her hand passed, brilliant orange-red flames suddenly erupted from the intricate patterns on the blade.
