BC Chapter 78

“I just saw you quickly resolve that zombie that was chasing us, and I thought maybe you were like them, using the experimental extract.” Zhang Yan explained as she voiced her guess. Of course, the other four also had this question, so they all looked at Lu Ziming with curiosity.

Lu Ziming thought of the wound on her back and subconsciously touched the back of her neck, vaguely saying, “I’m just lucky and have been fighting those zombies these days, so I’m a little used to it.”

“But I feel like you’re much better than those guys in school who experiment on themselves, Ziming. Even if they encountered that kind of super-fast zombie just now, they probably wouldn’t be able to get away unscathed.”

“So, I’m just lucky. Most of the things in this convenience store haven’t been destroyed, and there’s food and drink. You can stay here for the time being. I have things to do, so I’ll leave first. If you don’t want to take risks, you can wait here. Maybe a rescue team will come and save you.” Sun Tai and Dai Qianya had planned to do this, so they stayed at the supermarket and didn’t leave with Lu Ziming and Zhou Yuanyuan. Now it seems that they are the safest. After all, there are not only ordinary zombies outside now, but also mutated super-speed zombies. In a few days, I don’t know if the situation will continue to deteriorate. Instead of bumping around like Lu Ziming and trying her luck, it’s better to hide in a place where there are plenty of supplies and wait to be rescued. After Lu Ziming got some new information from the five people, she gave the temporarily safe convenience store to them, told them a few words, and left.

The reason for leaving was firstly because she was not familiar with the others and was not used to spending the night in the same space with people she had just met without any precautions. Secondly, she couldn’t guarantee that she wouldn’t return to the previous state of unconscious loss of control after falling asleep, so for the safety of the others, she had to leave.

Although she had just saved them, it was hard to guarantee that if they saw her lose control, they wouldn’t try to kill her. After all, it was already difficult for her to integrate into a group of ordinary people.

If zombies were complete infected, she and Zhou Yuanyuan were incomplete infected. People like Zhang Yan were called ordinary people, but Yan Shaohang and Yan Song were called mutants. From this point on, the zombie virus outbreak had divided the existing active people into four categories. Regardless of whether the final outcome was that the survivors in Clear Water City were completely taken care of by the zombies, or the rescue team from other cities rescued the survivors and completely eliminated all the zombies, it was impossible for Lu Ziming to return to the category of ordinary people.

Unless…

Unless she could find a serum that could inhibit or eliminate the virus in the research institute responsible for studying these viruses.

Lu Ziming walked down the street, combining what she knew and making plans. Then she suddenly thought of a very important point – the research institute responsible for studying these viruses should occupy a large area. Therefore, it was impossible to be in the city! Land in the city was very expensive, and this kind of research was not something that could be announced to the world. Such a big project would attract attention. In other words, the research institute must be in the suburbs of Clear Water City!

When she came out of the Jiang family before, she had observed the surrounding area, which was a wealthy area. Although the land was vast and sparsely populated, most of the land belonged to the wealthy people in the villa area. As everyone knew, the wealthy were very concerned about the living environment near their homes, so it was impossible to allow that kind of inexplicable research institute to open at their doorstep or within a few kilometers. In other words, the location of the research institute was both in the suburbs and far away from the wealthy area. Based on this, Lu Ziming could be sure that as long as she followed the outer ring road of the suburbs around Clear Water City and searched all the way from the outer area of the Jiang family, she would definitely be able to find the research institute.

However, what she didn’t expect was that the next day, while walking along the route she had planned, she happened to run into a fully armed rescue team fighting a large group of zombies near the People’s Park in the suburbs. To avoid being accidentally injured by the black-clothed people’s stray bullets, she had long since climbed over the wall and hid behind it, secretly observing the battle.

In her estimation, these people in front of her were so well-equipped, and the opposite side was just a group of ordinary zombies. This battle with no suspense should end soon. However, the facts that unfolded next seemed to give her two resounding slaps in the face, making her speechless – this rescue team was defeated, defeated by a mutated zombie with a large body, ugly appearance, and amazing combat power and defense!

This was another kind of zombie that Lu Ziming had never seen before. It was different from all the zombies she had seen before. It had a very high height and body advantage. Without even having to do anything, just standing in front of people could scare a group of timid survivors.

Not to mention, judging from the situation just now, his skin seemed to have a certain bulletproof effect.

Before long, the people in the rescue team who had run out of bullets began to fight hand-to-hand with the remaining zombies. However, even though they were skilled, they still couldn’t successfully eliminate all the zombies in front of them. Seeing that the battle had begun to show a one-sided defeat, the woman who was called the captain had no choice but to arrange for someone to return to the headquarters to report the situation.

Lu Ziming looked at the backs of the three people who retreated, and then looked at the rescue team members who were still gritting their teeth and holding on by the side of the street, thinking that she should help them, but she didn’t have any weapons that could provide remote support. Clinging to the wall, she turned her head and looked around, and finally found a pile of construction waste in the corner of the wall not far away. So she jumped down from the wall, walked over and rummaged through it a few times, picked out a piece of rebar about the thickness of a finger, held it in her hand, and swung it hard a few times to test whether it was handy.

So, at the last moment, when Yao Jinglin chose to gamble everything, Lu Ziming on the inside of the wall also made a move at the same time. After the attack was successful, she directly grabbed the wall, leaped down from it, and performed two forward rolls and a forward pounce, just in time to hug Yao Jinglin, who had just stylishly shot the zombie, and save her.

Although the two rolled into the bushes like two tumbling gourds and were immediately knocked dizzy, Yao Jinglin still quickly drew the dagger tied to the side of her leg with the hand that was not holding the gun, pointed the tip of the knife at Lu Ziming’s neck, and asked vigilantly, “Who are you!”
