Lord of Illusions City
Chapter 353 Have You Seen Zombies?
This time, only Mike followed Li Chenzhou and Gray Bear as they left. At the exit, Mike habitually picked up the nearby watering can, filled it, and signaled Gray Bear to take a bucket of the liquid medicine!
Gray Bear didn't object. These five-liter buckets were nothing to him, so even if he thought it wasn't necessary, he didn't bother to argue.
Carefully opening the door, Mike went out first. He looked around and was about to turn back and call Li Chenzhou and Gray Bear out, but he found that the two of them had already passed him on the other side and were walking towards a car by the side of the road.
"Hey! What are you doing?"
Mike was startled and quickly lowered his voice to shout.
"Driving out of the city. You just need to give us directions!"
Li Chenzhou said, and Gray Bear quickly translated.
"No! Never use the cars here. If we attract zombies, I'll be a sinner of the base!"
Mike said quickly.
"Then forget it. We'll walk a little further and then find a car!"
Li Chenzhou didn't insist after hearing Gray Bear's translation. Although he hadn't encountered any zombies during the day, who knew what the situation was? If he started the car here and attracted zombies, wouldn't he be slapping himself in the face?
So, the three of them continued forward. After ten minutes and walking three or four blocks, Li Chenzhou pointed to a pickup truck by the side of the road and said:
"Will this work now?"
"It should... be okay!"
This time, seeing Li Chenzhou's actions, Mike understood what he meant, so he nodded without waiting for Gray Bear to translate.
Seeing Mike nod, Li Chenzhou didn't hesitate. He walked directly to the pickup truck and pried the door open in a couple of moves. Then he got in the car and started it.
"Your car theft skills are really amazing. It's more convenient than driving your own car, because you don't even need a key!"
Mike muttered as he sat in the back row, placing the watering can aside.
"In this world, all cars can be his!"
Gray Bear replied directly to Mike, then asked:
"Which direction is the fastest way out of the city?"
"Just out of the city?"
Mike asked.
"Yeah... preferably somewhere outside the city with farms, manors, something suitable as a base!"
Gray Bear didn't even need to ask Li Chenzhou to give the answer. He was familiar with this kind of thing even in a different country, after all, he had helped build so many bases before!
"Then go this way. The distance is about the same, but there's a small town."
Mike pointed to the right front and said.
"Small town?"
Gray Bear was stunned. A small town on the edge of the city?
"It's actually just a dozen buildings, with shops, bars, hotels, etc., providing a place to stay for people leaving or entering the city. It's similar to your service areas, and you can also repair cars and refuel!"
Mike said:
"That bar's Mary has a big butt, I just don't know if she's still alive!"
"I thought you liked that Jennifer!"
Gray Bear said.
"But she's dead!"
Mike muttered.
...
Following the direction Mike pointed, Li Chenzhou started the pickup truck, then turned the steering wheel and floored the accelerator. Mike in the car quickly grabbed the back of the seat and shouted:
"Dude, step lightly on the gas pedal. That way the sound will be quieter. I don't want you to attract zombies so quickly. Compared to Jennifer, I'd rather see Mary now!"
Gray Bear didn't help Mike translate, and Li Chenzhou ignored the guy's shouts and just sped forward along the street...
"Oh! Damn it, these are two lunatics. I regret coming out with them!"
Mike gritted his teeth and shouted.
Li Chenzhou not only recklessly floored the accelerator, but even turned on the headlights directly. This was too arrogant.
But then, Mike suddenly realized that the commotion they were making now was already quite big for the people on their side. According to normal experience, it should be enough to attract zombies.
But now, he looked around. In the light of the headlights, he couldn't see anything. There were no zombies blocking the road ahead, and he couldn't hear the zombies roaring when he opened the car window.
"Oh my God, I can't believe it, we didn't attract any zombies out?"
Mike shouted.
"Mike! I want to remind you that your voice just now exceeded the sound of the car engine."
"Okay! Sorry! It's my fault, I just..."
Mike quickly lowered his voice and said:
"I just can't believe that what you said before is actually true! Where did all the zombies go?"
"That's exactly what we want to know!"
Gray Bear replied.
...
After driving for about thirty minutes, Li Chenzhou slowly stopped the car. Mike looked around and said:
"We're not there yet, why did you stop?"
"I want to change cars! Don't you think this car is cooler?"
Li Chenzhou said, pointing to an SUV by the side of the road!
"Oh! That's a good idea!"
Mike's eyes lit up:
"Honestly, there are some advantages to this world now. At least we can choose some cars that we never dared to think about before! God, this car costs at least ten thousand dollars!"
After getting out of the car, Mike suddenly looked at another sports car with a regretful expression:
"This one is cooler, but unfortunately, its owner must have turned on its alarm, so we can only give it up!"
Li Chenzhou, who had just opened the door of the SUV, suddenly had an idea in his mind when he heard Mike's words, so he started the car directly and gave Gray Bear a wink.
Gray Bear understood and immediately came to the driver's seat, while beckoning Mike to get in the car.
Mike was still sitting in the back seat, while unwillingly turning his head to look at the sports car again, but found that Li Chenzhou was bending over to pick up a stone, and then threw it hard at the sports car.
"God, what are you doing? This is the stupidest way to steal a car!!!"
Mike was shocked, but before he could finish speaking, the stone had already hit the hood of the sports car, and the ear-piercing alarm sounded instantly.
"Quick, quick, quick! Let's get out of here, you're committing suicide, you know? I'm going to be killed by you! Why did I have to meet you two lunatics?"
In the sound of the alarm, Mike shouted frantically, while desperately patting Gray Bear in the driver's seat.
Gray Bear really started the car, but didn't speed away. Instead, he turned the car around and turned on the headlights, with the headlights facing in the opposite direction to the pickup truck's headlights.
In this way, they had headlights illuminating both the front and the back, and the visibility was much better.
"What are you waiting for? Want to chat with God?"
Mike shouted as he patted Gray Bear, but Gray Bear calmly took out a cigarette and threw it to Mike, then lit one for himself, and then pointed to the front and said:
"Mike, have you seen any zombies?"
"I..."
Mike, who was full of anxiety, suddenly quieted down. He looked at the front, and then looked at the back. In such an ear-piercing alarm, there wasn't even a single zombie appearing?
