Lord of Illusions City

Chapter 52 Zombie Anomalies

Everyone quickly looked down.

Around the building, countless zombies emerged from alleys, courtyards, and stairwells, rushing towards their left, the direction from which Li Chenzhou and the others had come.

These zombies were running very fast, without stopping, as if something over there was summoning them.

"It seems... all the zombies in this area have been summoned away!"

Someone looked into the distance and suddenly pointed ahead, saying. Everyone looked in the direction he was pointing and realized he was right. Because the building was very tall, they could see very far.

The zombies' unusual activity was only happening two blocks past the highway in front of the building. The zombies in those two blocks were all rushing towards the left, while the zombies further away were still wandering aimlessly in the streets.

"What... is there?"

Someone couldn't help but ask in fear, then turned to look to the left, but because of the angle, he couldn't see that direction at all.

"Where's Xiao Zhao? We need to tell him about this!"

A middle-aged man suddenly realized and shouted loudly.

"I'll go!"

A young man standing near the door immediately shouted and rushed out. The others looked at each other, and no one objected. Although Zhao Dahai had told everyone not to go out, this was an unexpected situation, and besides, he was going to find Zhao Dahai, so it shouldn't be a problem.

Zhao Dahai and the others were in the innermost room, which was located at the corner of the building, so they could see in two directions, giving them a better view.

As the young man approached the door, he heard muffled moans from a woman inside, as if she was being restrained, along with the heavy breathing of several men.

The young man was obviously experienced. After a moment of愣, he listened carefully, then suddenly backed away. After retreating a short distance, he ran back again, shouting:

"Brother Zhao, are you there? The zombies below... the zombies below..."

The young man's voice startled Zhao Dahai and the others inside. At Zhao Dahai's signal, Xiao Lü stopped what he was doing, pulled up his pants, and went to the door. He opened the door, stuck his head out, and frowned at the young man, asking:

"What's the matter?"

"Below, look at the zombies below!"

The young man pointed outside and replied.

Xiao Lü was surprised. They had all been watching Liu Yun, who they had turned into a plaything. Who had time to look out the window? Hearing this, he immediately closed the door, then rushed to the window and looked down.

"Brother Hai! These zombies..."

The others also released Liu Yun, who was already somewhat delirious, and all went to the window and looked down. Then they looked at each other in dismay.

"This... it must be a strengthened zombie!"

Zhao Dahai frowned as he watched the zombies below all moving in one direction.

"It's the kind of intelligent zombie that can command a zombie horde!"

"Brother Hai! How do you know?"

Xiao Lü asked, dumbfounded.

"I read it in novels! Don't you read novels? The only things that can attract zombies, besides blood, are strengthened zombies!"

Zhao Dahai looked into the distance, pointed ahead, and said:

"Look, the zombies over there aren't reacting. It's only in this area near us, which means the strengthened zombie's range of influence is limited!"

"Novels are all made up... how can they be the same as our world?"

Another person asked with a stiff expression.

"We're already in the apocalypse that we used to only see in novels and movies, so... why can't the things in novels become real?"

Zhao Dahai muttered as he watched the zombies below.

"At least... I used the experience I saw in novels to bring you all here alive!"

"So, what do we do now?"

"Wait!"

Zhao Dahai said:

"We'll wait until all the zombies nearby are summoned away, then we'll go down, gather food and water, and then leave!"

"Leave?"

Xiao Lü looked at Zhao Dahai in surprise.

"Brother Hai, didn't you say... we'd use this place as our base from now on? Why are we leaving?"

*Pa!*

Zhao Dahai slapped Xiao Lü on the head and cursed:

"Are you fucking brain-dead? There's a guy near us who can gather zombies and form a horde, and you still want to stay here? Are you afraid you won't die fast enough?"

Saying that, Zhao Dahai went to the other window, watching the zombies leaving below and carefully observing the roads along the way and the surrounding buildings. He reached out and scratched his chin.

"Damn it! I have a feeling we can't stay in the city. If strengthened zombies can appear here, what about other places? No, we have to find a way to leave the city as soon as possible. If we stay here, we'll be surrounded by zombies sooner or later!"

Saying that, Zhao Dahai turned to leave, but suddenly saw Old Wang, who was tied up and lying unconscious on the ground.

Earlier, when Zhao Dahai was about to tear Liu Yun's clothes off, Old Wang tried to stop him. Because his child had been sick, he had asked Liu Yun for an advance on his salary. Liu Yun hadn't given it to him, but she had personally lent him 50,000 yuan, which had helped him through a difficult time.

Therefore, after seeing Liu Yun's pleading eyes, Old Wang wanted to repay her. In Old Wang's eyes, they were still co-workers, and no matter how the world changed, the friendship they had from drinking and chatting together should still be there.

But he didn't expect that as soon as Old Wang stopped Zhao Dahai and asked him to give him some face and let Liu Yun go, Zhao Dahai gave Xiao Lü a look, and Xiao Lü smashed a wrench on Old Wang's head, knocking him out! Then they tied him up and even stuffed Liu Yun's underwear into his mouth.

Looking at Old Wang on the ground, and then at Liu Yun, who was completely naked and lying on the ground, looking at him in fear, a hint of a smile suddenly appeared on Zhao Dahai's face. He went directly to the side, opened a window, and then placed Old Wang's head on the windowsill, facing outwards.

"You come here!"

Then, he turned his head and waved at Liu Yun. Liu Yun, who wasn't wearing a stitch of clothing, didn't dare to grab her clothes and walked over just like that.

"He's the only one among us who hasn't touched you. He even tried to help you just now. And now, only one of you can live. If you pull him back, I'll throw you down. If you push him down, you can live!"

Zhao Dahai pulled Liu Yun's hand, made her grab Old Wang's feet, grabbed her breasts, and said:

"Alright, now the choice is yours. You only have one minute to choose. If he's still here after one minute, then we'll throw you down!"

Hearing Zhao Dahai's words, the panic on Liu Yun's face intensified. She subconsciously looked at Old Wang, who had half his body hanging out of the window.

At this time, Old Wang also slowly woke up under the assault of the cold wind at this height. Seeing that he was actually hanging outside, he immediately panicked and looked at Zhao Dahai and Liu Yun behind the glass, making muffled sounds and shaking his head desperately.

"Haha! See that? He wants you to pull him back! If you can't pull him, you can let me help. I'll definitely help you pull him up, and then throw you down!"

Seeing Old Wang wake up, Zhao Dahai suddenly laughed. He squeezed her breasts harder again, while whispering in Liu Yun's ear. But to Liu Yun, this voice sounded like it came from a demon in hell...
