#341 - Chapter 341 There are survivors here!
Suburbs of Shenzhen.
Outside, a torrential rain formed an impenetrable curtain.
Surrounding them were zombies steadily closing in.
In a short time, Li's team and their three vehicles found themselves in an extremely dangerous situation!
In the co-driver's seat of the lead riot control vehicle, Li Bowen's eyes pierced through the rain, witnessing more and more zombies appearing ahead!
What to do!?
If they continued forward, they risked being trapped if they couldn't break through the zombie horde!
And if they turned back, the road they had just traveled shouldn't have too many zombies yet, but finding a new route could mean facing another horde!
After a couple of seconds of thought, Captain Li made a swift decision.
"We're turning around! We'll head back first!"
After much deliberation, he still felt that changing routes was safer.
The rain had appeared very suddenly and might stop in a moment.
If the rain subsided and the sun reappeared, the zombies outside might return to the buildings!
There was no need to confront them head-on right now!
The other two vehicles in the team's channel quickly completed their U-turns upon hearing the captain's instructions.
In just a few seconds, the closest danger was already upon their vehicles!
Roar!
Nourished by the rainwater and shrouded in the darkness of the clouds, several grotesque ordinary zombies clung to Captain Li's riot control vehicle, attempting to use their mutated, stronger fingers to break through the barrier and feast on the deliciousness inside!
Although Yao Lei, Zhou Xin, and the others were nervous, they weren't overly alarmed.
They had encountered similar situations before; as combat team members of Green Origin who frequently ventured out, they had faced even more dangerous scenarios.
With the riot control vehicle's defenses, the few zombies couldn't pose a significant threat to them in the short term.
But if there were more of them, it would be hard to say.
Of course, they wouldn't give them the chance.
Gao Qiang completed the vehicle's turn, locked his gaze on the team vehicles that had already started to move back not far ahead, and stepped on the gas, sending the beast beneath him hurtling forward!
Bang, bang, bang!
The tires crushed some zombies on the road, swerving left and right, even flinging off some of the zombies that were clinging to the vehicle!
The three large off-road vehicles sped back along the road they had just traveled.
Thump, thump, thump!
Clearly, the zombies that were originally in the buildings thought that night had fallen.
More and more zombies appeared on the road they had previously traveled!
"We'll take the lead! Old Li and Old Zhang, your two vehicles cover the rear!"
Li Bowen frowned, quickly making adjustments.
Their vehicle had the largest and most robust ram, making it suitable for clearing the way, while the other two teammates' vehicles were better off in the rear.
The formation was quickly adjusted, and the riot control vehicle once again unleashed the roar of a steel beast, as Gao Qiang skillfully maneuvered it, smashing the approaching walkers into pieces!
In this way, the three vehicles drove for about ten minutes.
On the lead riot control vehicle, Li Bowen's frown deepened.
The rain outside showed no signs of weakening, and the entire world was still shrouded in darkness!
If it weren't for the faint glimmer of light in the sky, they might have thought that night had arrived early!
"This won't do!"
Continuing like this was definitely not a solution!
Even if their vehicles were excellent, they couldn't really drive like this in near-night conditions!
"Everyone, quickly look around for a place to temporarily take shelter and establish a defense! We'll be surrounded if we continue like this!"
He couldn't help but shout loudly in the channel!
Everyone lived in Guangdong Province and had naturally been to Shenzhen before, so perhaps some people were familiar with the area they were in.
If there was a good place nearby to temporarily avoid the zombies' onslaught, they could reduce the severity of the crisis.
"Captain! I remember there's an old industrial district nearby, with many abandoned factories and businesses. We can go in and find a place with walls to hide temporarily!"
Sure enough, a team member named Liu Qing said urgently in the channel.
Captain Li didn't hesitate. Trusting this former base member and veteran member of his team, he quickly decided to go there!
"Okay! We'll listen to Xiao Liu! We'll go there first!"
The convoy quickly adjusted, and another vehicle led the way to the so-called old industrial district.
Rumble!
The electric snakes in the sky were still raging, and the torrential rain was also adding to the chaos.
At this time, all the living survivors, except for those in special circumstances, were hiding in their homes.
No one dared to come out.
The rain continued unabated.
More than ten minutes later, Captain Li and his group, led by another vehicle, finally arrived at the so-called old industrial district!
As expected of one of the former top-tier cities in the country.
The zombie density outside had reached a terrifying level!
The vehicle's lights shone out, and the zombies swaying their bodies and running wildly in the rain seemed to be having a party, frantically running towards the loudest sound!
They were practically driving through a tide of corpses!
The faces of all the personnel were extremely unsightly.
How could a good mission suddenly degenerate into such a critical situation?
"We're here! It's over there! Let's find a factory with high and sturdy walls to hide in!"
Liu Qing's equally anxious voice came through the radio.
Finally here!
Everyone quickly scanned the surroundings, trying to select the best short-term hiding spot.
"Let's go there!"
Li Bowen quickly locked his gaze on a factory not far ahead that had a circle of two-to-three-meter-high walls and seemed to have several old-style buildings inside.
The team members didn't have better suggestions and quickly rushed towards the location pointed out by the captain!
In less than half a minute, they arrived outside the gate of the target factory, braving the zombies along the way!
"Smash it open!"
Seeing the tightly locked iron gate, Captain Li ordered Gao Qiang to open the door in the most brutal way!
With their modified sturdy ram, they only needed to destroy the lock, and then use the vehicle to block the iron gate again after entering, which should be able to isolate the zombies outside.
Boom!
Gao Qiang carried out the captain's order without hesitation, adjusted the angle and charged towards the connection of the iron gate lock.
They only felt the vehicle jolt slightly before they appeared inside the target factory!
Inside was a fairly spacious open-air concrete floor, with some debris piled around, looking like it had been abandoned for a long time.
The main point was that they didn't see a single zombie inside!
"After everyone enters, leave two vehicles to hold the gate! The others take action to eliminate the zombies that followed in!"
In fact, without Captain Li's loud instructions, the skilled combat team members already knew what to do after entering.
The open gate welcomed the intrusion of the three vehicles and a group of uninvited guests, and then two vehicles turned around and pushed the two sides of the gate to restore it to an isolated area again.
No matter how the zombies chasing outside beat on the gate, with the two large off-road vehicles blocking the door, they shouldn't be able to break through in a short time.
It wasn't really night yet, and there weren't too many of them. With the nearly three-meter-high walls here, they should be able to hold on temporarily.
After stopping the vehicles, the team members had already unceremoniously opened fire to kill the nearly hundred zombies that had chased in.
Without new numbers to replenish, these nearly hundred ordinary zombies, under the relentless attack of the Green Origin combat team members who didn't care about bullets, only lasted less than five minutes before they all fell to the ground and became real corpses!
"Phew!"
"We're finally safe for the time being! Mom! It's been a long time since it's been so dangerous!"
Yao Lei sat in the vehicle, retracted the hot barrel, and breathed a sigh of relief with lingering fear.
The others also showed expressions of surviving a disaster.
Indeed.
The rain outside still showed no signs of weakening, as if it was going to leak the entire sky, and the rain was still pouring down continuously.
If they were still outside, they might be completely surrounded!
In that case, even if the vehicles were sturdy, they would be trapped sooner or later!
"Captain, why are you still frowning with such a stinky face? We're temporarily safe."
Yao Lei saw that Captain Li was still staring outside with a serious look, and couldn't help but push his shoulder.
Since she was rescued by the captain again a few days ago, the image of this man in her heart had become even taller.
This was a man worth trusting.
Li Bowen didn't reply to her, his eyes staring at a certain building in the factory!
Just now, when killing the zombies inside, he vaguely saw some figures crouching by the windows of these buildings, spying on them!
There are survivors here!
