At the entrance of the supermarket, Sally stood in shock, unable to believe the horrifying scene unfolding before her. Several meters away from her, a petite woman was overpowering a tall man, pinning him to the ground.
Despite her small stature, the woman exhibited an incredible strength, rendering the man immobile. The man seemed bewildered, unsure of the woman’s intentions.
The woman’s expression was ferocious, resembling a bloodthirsty beast. Her vocal cords emitted a hissing growl that sounded nothing like a normal human.
In the next moment, the woman sank her teeth into the man’s face, tearing off a large chunk of flesh. “Help! Save me!” The man screamed in agony, desperately struggling to free himself. Finally, he managed to break free from the woman’s grip. However, she immediately pounced on him again, crazily biting his neck.
The crowd gathered around, tightly packed and unable to move. Witnessing the gruesome scene, female bystanders let out screams. Several men rushed forward in an attempt to restrain the frenzied woman, causing chaos to ensue. Someone dialed the emergency hotline, while others called for an ambulance.
The woman continued her frenzied assault, biting and tearing at the man, leaving his hands and face covered in blood and flesh. It took several men working together to subdue her. “Is she on drugs? This is insane!” “Holy cow, this is terrifying!”
“Call the police!” “Is there a doctor? This guy is bleeding heavily.” The onlookers engaged in heated discussions. Amidst the commotion, Sally caught a glimpse of the heavily injured man. Her face turned pale, and her intuition told her she needed to leave. However, the entrance of the supermarket was blocked by the crowd.
Suddenly, Sally noticed a middle-aged man beside her who seemed to be in distress. He was clutching his stomach and squatting on the ground, appearing extremely pained. His body began convulsing uncontrollably. The seizure didn’t last long and stopped after a few seconds. The man remained motionless on the ground, with only his shoulders twitching slightly. “Sir, are you okay?” Sally cautiously asked him. When the man raised his head, Sally was startled.
Bloodshot eyes filled his sockets, and his pupils seemed to have disappeared, leaving only the whites of his eyes. Veins bulged on his forehead, and his expression was fiercely savage, emitting a hissing growl from his mouth. It was then that Sally realized this middle-aged man looked exactly like the crazed girl from earlier.
“Roar!” Just as Sally was frozen in shock, the man suddenly stood up and lunged towards her. Sally let out a scream and instinctively pushed him away. Perhaps due to his unstable footing after standing up, the man stumbled and fell. Seizing the opportunity, Sally quickly stepped back several paces.
The man promptly stood up again, but this time, Sally wasn’t his target. He lunged at the nearest man beside him, sinking his teeth into him.
The man cried out in pain, frantically elbowing the assailant’s back, but the middle-aged man showed no response as if he couldn’t feel pain. Sally felt her brain about to malfunction.
First, the girl, and now this man–they both suddenly went berserk, losing their rationality like zombies in a movie. But it didn’t end there. Sally suddenly noticed that many people around her started exhibiting the same symptoms. They had pained expressions, their bodies convulsing uncontrollably. Meanwhile, people realized that the man who was initially bitten by the girl was now also experiencing convulsions.
A few seconds later, the man also stood up. He, who was weak and lying on the ground just now, now seemed like a powerful beast and pounced into the crowd. In the crowd, those who showed abnormal symptoms also stood up and behaved like wild animals, biting anyone they saw. The scene instantly turned chaotic. There were screams and shouts everywhere. Sally saw a young child of about ten years old being attacked by several frenzied individuals.
Under their vigorous tearing, the child was torn apart. Sally witnessed this scene and felt her stomach churn, almost vomiting. The air was filled with a strong smell of blood, and the entire supermarket turned into a hellish place in just a few minutes. “Run, they are zombies!” The other people in the supermarket finally realized it, and countless individuals started to run towards the exit, each for themselves. Everyone wanted to leave this hellish place as soon as possible.
In the midst of the crowded pushing and shoving, many people were trampled to death or injured, but people didn’t care anymore; they just wanted to escape from here. However, the more they pushed each other, the slower they moved towards the supermarket’s exit. “Damn it, stop pushing! If you push more, we’ll all die here.” “Move aside, get the hell out of my way!” “Help, they’re coming after us.”
“Mom, Mom!”… Swearing, shouting, and crying resounded through the crowd. Sally watched this scene and suddenly realized that it was impossible to escape through the supermarket’s main entrance. Fortunately, she was far away from the crowd and temporarily not targeted by those zombies. She forced herself to calm down and turned to run towards the inside of the supermarket.
“I need to find a place to hide.” Sally had a habit of exercising regularly, and her physical fitness was decent. She narrowly evaded several zombies that tried to pounce on her. Suddenly, she seemed to think of something.
“Oh no, David is still inside the supermarket. He definitely doesn’t know about the situation here.” Sally hurriedly ran towards the interior of the supermarket and found David in the fresh produce section.
At this moment, David was holding a cabbage in his hand, inspecting it. Sally approached him and grabbed David’s arm. “David, come with me quickly.” David looked at her curiously. Sally explained anxiously, “There are… uh, zombies outside. You know about the rumors online recently, right? Zombies have really appeared!” ．
David looked at her in astonishment. Of course, he wasn’t surprised by the zombies. He found it unbelievable that this woman’s first reaction after encountering zombies was to come back and inform him. Seeing David’s reaction, Sally thought he didn’t believe her. “I’m not joking. Zombies have really appeared. The entrance is blocked, and we need to find a place to hide quickly.”
She tried to pull David’s hand and make him come along, but she found that David didn’t move. At this moment, a supermarket staff member not far from them collapsed to the ground in pain, and their body started convulsing. Sally’s face turned pale. “Run, David! He’s turning into a zombie.”
Sally was so anxious that she was about to cry. David put down the cabbage in his hand and smiled. This woman was interesting. Even at a time like this, she didn’t abandon David and try to save herself alone. David extended his hand, and a completely black alloy combat knife appeared in his hand. He glanced at Sally indifferently. “Follow me closely.”
