Chapter Ninety-Four: Inescapable

  The warm sunshine did not warm the hearts of Wu Xiaotian and others, because they saw several zombies crawling out of their graves, making their hearts cool to the core before the battle even began. They not only made people's hearts cool, but also made them feel sick, because their bodies were covered with maggots.

  Wu Xiaotian comforted Liu Ting as she had already endured the nausea and began vomiting on the side.

  "Are they really zombies?"

  "It's a zombie, you must have seen Resident Evil 2, there is a scene in the movie where the female lead and others are walking through a cemetery when zombies suddenly crawl out of their graves to fight them! Now that scene from the movie has become reality, only with a difference in numbers!"

  Duan Yue replied to Zhao Xinyu's question and turned to ask Wu Xiaotian, "Do you think we can return the same way? After all, there are too many zombies!"

  Wu Xiaotian smiled wryly and didn't answer Duan Yue's question, instead pointing to the road they came from. Duan Yue turned around and saw that more zombies were slowly crawling out of the graves behind them, although not as many as those in front, their numbers were still increasing.

  And they had already been surrounded by those zombies, although he didn't want to say so, but it was a fact. Wu Xiaotian said to Liu Ting: "Do you want to go to the carriage to protect them?"

  "No, I want to fight with you!"

  Liu Ting couldn't help but feel a strong sense of nausea, but she was determined not to go back because she wanted to protect the most important person in her heart. Wu Xiaotian could only let her be, because her abilities were what made Wu Xiaotian feel most at ease.

  "Since it's like this, we'll prepare for battle then, because we must protect the people in the carriage!"

  Wu Xiaotian's words strengthened Duan Yue and Zhao Xinyu's determination, since the enemy had come to attack, they would fight to the end, for they also had people to protect.

  "Xiao Tian, you come and assign tasks, after all, you understand zombies better than me, and also know everyone's abilities."

  Wu Xiaotian didn't decline either and directly said to the three of them: "Xiao Yu, you drive, whether or not they can escape this danger depends on you."

  "Don't worry!" Zhao Xinyu heard Wu Xiaotian's arrangement and ran directly into the driver's room. Wu Xiaotian turned his head to Duan Yue and said, "You stand on the top of the dump truck and use your sword energy to attack the zombies that are attacking from both sides of the car. We can't let the zombies' bodies get stuck in the wheels."

  "Ting, you're a free person, but prioritize dealing with the zombies chasing after the car, don't let them climb onto the back of the vehicle."

  "Okay"

  Looking at the corpses that were gradually closing in, Wu Xiaotian directly pulled out the Tang knife from his waist and raised his head, half-closing his eyes to gaze at the dazzling sunlight. At this time, Duan Yue had already climbed onto the roof of the car, holding the black sword Duan Yue, standing on the roof with his eyes closed, cultivating his spirit. Liu Ting stood beside Wu Xiaotian, slowly wiping the pair of double swords, waiting for the arrival of the zombies, while Zhao Xinyu had already taken position, only waiting for Wu Xiaotian's order.

  Wu Xiaotian carried two Tang knives and walked to the front of the car, turned his head to see that everyone was ready, let out a long whistle, and charged directly at the corpse group in front.

  After hearing Wu Xiaotian's long whistle, Zhao Xinyu started the car, Duan Yue opened his eyes, and Liu Ting stopped wiping and rushed towards the corpse group. Wu Xiaotian's body burst out with drumming thunder and lightning, which made a "pa, pa" sound when it came into contact with the ground. The thunder and lightning on his arm flowed through his hands to the two Tang knives, one shining brightly and the other red like fresh blood.

  The zombies discovered Wu Xiaotian in time, they had no way of letting out a howl, nor could they hear any sound, but they knew what food was and now they sensed the presence of food.

  "Ah, ah"

  The undead, the sound of skeletal friction, although terrifying, did not deter this person who charged towards them. Although they were uglier and more disgusting than ordinary zombies, Wu Xiaotian had long been indifferent to these common undead.

  The Tang knife, with its dazzling lightning-like glow, chopped down on the first zombie's body. The zombie hadn't even touched Wu Xiaotian's clothes before it fell to his feet. Another zombie took advantage of the brief opening and tried to grab Wu Xiaotian, but another Tang knife, with a blood-red blade light, chopped into this zombie's body. The sharp Tang knife didn't give Wu Xiaotian any feeling of resistance at all, and that zombie was cut in two. Wu Xiaotian also discovered that these zombies wouldn't spurt out blood, but instead dropped some disgusting maggots.

  After the zombie died, the maggots inside its body also sprayed towards Wu Xiaotian, but before they could touch his clothes, they were electrocuted by the lightning around his body and turned into charcoal powder.

  The rumbling sound of the dump truck came from behind, letting Wu Xiaotian know that he had to quickly clear out the zombies. Otherwise, before he could even clear a path, the dump truck would have already arrived. With a swift swing of his sword, Wu Xiaotian beheaded another zombie. His two hands stretched straight out as the long-unused Death Spiral began to rotate once more. Unlike in the past when it could only spin in place, the current Death Spiral could now move with the aid of Thunder Step and Dance Step, clearing zombies at a speed that was several times faster than before. This was because Wu Xiaotian's Tang knife now brought not just a flash of light, but also lightning!

  Zhao Xinyu, who was driving the car, had initially been worried that they wouldn't be able to break through the zombie crowd due to their slow speed. However, he no longer had this concern now, as Wu Xiaotian's rate of clearing zombies had already reached the normal speed of a dump truck. Zhao Xinyu was now only worried about whether Wu Xiaotian would get dizzy from spinning around. Meanwhile, Duan Yue on top of the car didn't even have time to worry about Wu Xiaotian, as there were simply too many zombies on both sides of the mountain road, forcing him to constantly emit black sword energy.

  Duan Yue's black sword emitted a sharp and extremely durable sword aura. As soon as he released one sword aura, the zombies rushing towards the cart would be split in half by the sword aura, but it wouldn't disappear and instead continued to fly towards the zombies behind. One of Duan Yue's sword auras could take out over ten zombies at least. Although his sword aura was unstoppable, it couldn't withstand the sheer number of zombies. The zombies that were cut down hadn't even fallen yet before they were replaced by the surrounding zombies, so Duan Yue could only desperately release black sword auras with all his might.

  The roof of the car was filled with sword energy, and the rear was not easy either. If Duan Yue missed any zombies, they would be thrown to the back of the dump truck by the garbage truck. These zombies would frantically chase after the dump truck until they were killed by Liu Ting or tripped and trampled by other zombies. At this moment, Liu Ting only had three moves: instant movement, sword release, then instant movement again, and sword release again, repeating this process.

  Duan Yue's attack couldn't reach the blind spot, so Liu Ting had to go and clean it up. There were zombies crawling on the car door, she also had to clean them up. As long as you observe carefully, you will find that throughout the whole process, Liu Ting's feet never touched the ground because she was teleporting!
