Chapter 32
Lu Ming was in a good mood after dealing with the hunter.
This meant that he did not have to curl up in the basement and sunbathe through the window every day. Not bad, not bad.
In a good mood, Lu Ming finished counting the supplies and changed into his pajamas. He was about to have a good sleep when the doorbell rang again.
He came to the electronic screen and saw Wang Xiong’s big face.
“Brother, the zombies are here! We made too much noise just now!”
Lu Ming tensed.
Zombies!
Danger!
Even though he had already killed a Tier 2 hunter, Lu Ming still did not dare to underestimate any zombie.
This was because every ordinary zombie had unlimited possibilities of evolution.
Now that he had a Tier 2 zombie, Lu Ming did not even dare to imagine what monsters would appear in the future!
“Got it. Wait for me.”
“It’s not a brother. I want you to run with us.”
“I’m not running. If you want to run, run on your own!”
With that, Lu Ming turned off the electronic screen and went to the second floor.
…
Lu Ming had just broken a slingshot and a bow.
He still had his slingshots in reserve, but his bow and arrow were gone.
But it didn’t matter.
He opened the window in his pajamas and a cold wind blew in.
He looked around the street in the moonlight.
The zombies had already rushed over in the direction of the sound.
He looked down at his door and realized that Wang Xiong and the others had already set up a defensive line at his door.
There were trash cans and sandbags piled up everywhere. Wang Xiong and a pretty woman were at the front, holding axes and machetes, preparing to fight the zombies in close combat.
Wang Xiong heard the window open and looked up at Lu Ming.
“Brother, open the door and let us in.”
Lu Ming frowned.
What kind of dream are you having?
“Aren’t you leaving?”
Wang Xiong said helplessly, “All the zombies around are here. There’s nowhere to run. Brother, open the door and let us in to hide.”
Why do you want to enter my house?
Are you dreaming? Do you think you can enter this place?
However, before Lu Ming could curse, the pretty woman beside Wang Xiong said, “Mr. Lu Ming, don’t worry about us. Just do it. We can protect ourselves.”
With that, Zhang Chengcheng glared at Wang Xiong and added, “Mr. Lu, go and open the door. You’re going to deal with the zombies? Do you have the ability? The distance from the second floor to the first floor is enough for Brother Lu to kill dozens of zombies. It’s too time-consuming for us to open the door!”
“Besides, with Mr. Lu around, what are you afraid of? I’m a woman. If I’m not afraid of you, what are you afraid of?!”
Wang Xiong: “???”
Before Wang Xiong could think further, Lu Ming, who was on the second floor, had already attacked.
…
Slingshot Lv10 (0/1000).
The Level 10 slingshot not only provided Lu Ming with an additional 5.5 agility points, but it also increased his mastery of the slingshot.
Moreover, Lu Ming had already tested the maximum load of the slingshot. If he shot again now, there would be no problem pulling the slingshot.
“Pa!”
“Pa!”
There were many zombies coming from all directions.
The situation was critical! Lu Ming had to speed up his shooting.
Three shots a second was not difficult for the current Lu Ming.
There was a series of crackling sounds.
Any living corpse that came within 30 meters of the building was shot down by Lu Ming with a flick of his bow.
Even the giant corpse could not withstand Lu Ming’s shot.
The battle with the hunter had indeed attracted a zombie wave.
However, the terrain in Good Hope Village was quite complicated, and the transmission of sound would be blocked. There were actually not many zombie waves—just a few hundred.
With three shots a second, even if he made an occasional mistake and missed the target, Lu Ming would be able to finish the battle in five minutes.
Outside the window, corpses lay everywhere and the stench rose to the sky.
Lu Ming moved his stiff wrist slightly and opened the attribute panel. He realized that his slingshot had increased to Lv11 (386/1100).
Agility increased by 1.1 points to 28.5 points.
To increase his proficiency, he still had to rely on zombies.
He prepared to close the window.
But in front of the closed window, Lu Ming thought for a moment and said to the stunned crowd below, “Good night.”
Lu Ming was not rude.
…
Everything was over.
Tonight was a little exciting for Wang Xiong and the others.
When the zombie wave attacked, the Zhang family’s stronghold was destroyed.
He was about to escape with Lu Ming, but he did not expect Lu Ming to kill the hunter and hundreds of zombies.
In fact, Zhang Chengcheng was right.
Although Lu Ming did not open the door, they did not engage in a close combat with the zombies. They only saw the zombies being harvested like wheat.
He couldn’t even get close.
“Is he even human?!”
A survivor named Yang Guan muttered.
Lu Ming’s strength had really refreshed his worldview.
Wang Xiong and the others did not know what to say.
Wang Xiong said in a muffled voice.
“Let’s go to the village entrance, get the military vehicles and weapons, and then head downtown…”
“Don’t go downtown.” Wang Xiong was interrupted by Zhang Chengcheng.
Looking away from the window on the second floor, Zhang Chengcheng’s gaze was bright and pure. “If you want to go to the city center, go ahead. I’m not going with you.”
“I think it’s safer here, with Mr. Lu, than in any shelter.”
Looking at Zhang Chengcheng’s serious expression, Wang Xiong and the others were stunned.
Zhang Chengcheng continued, “By the way, I remember that your former shelter was here, right?”
Wang Xiong nodded in confusion. Zhang Chengcheng asked again, “Which house is cleaner?”
Wang Xiong pointed to a house that had been cleaned and saw Zhang Chengcheng leave.
Seeing this, the other three survivors from the Zhang family’s stronghold followed without hesitation.
Only Wang Xiong, Zhang Lixin, and Meng Jie remained, disheveled in the wind.
Wang Xiong: “Didn’t we agree? Why aren’t you leaving?”
Meng Jie thought for a moment and said, “It was necessary to escape from Good Hope Village previously, but Lu Ming’s strength is indeed unexpected.”
“I think what Zhang Chengcheng said makes sense.”
“There are only the three of us left now. Even if there are military vehicles and weapons, our journey might not be safe. Why don’t we…”
At this point, Meng Jie had already understood how terrifying a zombie was.
It was destined to be extremely difficult for Wang Xiong, Zhang Lixin, and the three of them to go to the official shelter in the city center.
There was no need to encounter any zombie tide.
Even if another hunter appeared, military vehicles and machine guns would have been useless.
Meng Jie simply changed her mind.
“Don’t leave.”
Turning to glance at Lu Ming’s house, Meng Jie had another thought.
“And I’m very curious how Mr. Lu became so strong. Currently, he is much stronger than a Level 2 Awakened, but I’ve never seen him collect corpse crystals…”
This topic was new and extremely worth researching.
Meng Jie had a premonition.
The value of this matter was much more important than going to the official shelter!
