Chapter 365: Chapter 365: Escaping the Zombie horde



"Whew, that was close," Kate murmured as the metal barrel had turned into metal scrapes under the rubble\'s weight.

"Yeah..."

As the two began walking away from the rubble, they still couldn\'t believe they had finally made it out.

"Thanks for saving me earlier——"

"I should be the one saying that. Without you, I would have never gotten out of there." Kate interrupted.

"I guess we can thank each other for saving ourselves... Oh shit——"

Xiaoyun quickly pulled Kate into the nearby bush as the area ahead of them was a massive corpse, the size similar to the titan mutant they had once seen.

More importantly, hundreds of thousands of zombies were feasting on it, with one standing on its skull as it turned towards their direction.

"Please don\'t see us." The two prayed the same thing in their heads as that particular zombie kept looking at them in the bush.

But with a loud growling sound, almost all of the zombies dropped their food and started running in their direction.

"Fuck!"

The two quickly out of the bush, running as fast as possible as the massive horde chased behind them.

As they continued to run down the street, Kate suddenly twisted her ankle, falling onto the ground as she groaned in pain.

Without any hesitation, Xiaoyun turned back around to carry her on his back, giving her a piggyback ride as he began sprinting for his life.

"How close are they to us?" Xiaoyun asked as he continued to run forward, showing zero sign of slowing down.

"About ten steps behind us," Kate replied as she held onto his chest tightly as if she was afraid of being let go.

"Fuck!"

Xiaoyun immediately started running even faster, burning through his stamina as he knew he was never going to beat a zombie in a long-distance race.

But soon, Xiaoyun ran into a dead end as he accidentally turned the wrong corner, with all three sides being the wall.

"Shit! Who the hell designed these streets."

Xiaoyun quickly created an invisible cloak in hand, covering the two of them as they crawled into a ball by the corner of the alleyway.

As the footsteps from the outside get louder and louder, Xiaoyun doesn\'t hesitate to turn it on, hoping it is enough to fool the zombies.

The two couldn\'t move a single bit, as the invisible cloak wasn\'t put on properly, as it usually required being attached to the clothes of the wearer.

After remaining still for who knows how long, the two made a small little peak by dragging it aside.

To their surprise, all of the zombie horde was gone. Allowing the two to finally step back out as Xiaoyun handed the invisible cloak over for Kate to wear.

"Man, this thing really doesn\'t tear well," Xiaoyun murmured as their original invisible cloak was long gone.

"Yeah, but being invisible is crazy enough. You can\'t ask too much from it."

---

By the time the two stepped out of the alleyway, they were back to their usual stealth as they walked down the street with their hands held.

They headed straight back to the hotel they had been in earlier, then all the way back to their humble room as they turned their invisible cloak back down.

"Holy shit... I\'m never heading out at night again." Xiaoyun murmured as they sat down on the carpet floor.

"That was certainly an experience... Xiaoyun! You okay?" Kate worryingly asked after noticing all the blood on his leg and arms.

"I\'m fine. It\'s just cut wounds when the mall initially collapsed. Your arms have it, too." XIaoyun pointed out.

Kate slowly calmed down after realizing that what Xiaoyun said was true. There were only blood stains, not blood, on both of their bodies.

"Um, do you want to take a shower first or me?" Kate asked as she started to notice how dirty they both looked.

"You can go take a shower first. I\'ll make your clothes later."

"Thanks..."

As Kate headed inside the shower, Xiaoyun quickly created a woman-size cloth this time, similar to what Leyan wore before checking on his phone, which showed it was only noon.

With the signal finally coming to his phone, he noticed several missing calls from Leyan and Zhen Ren.

He chose to call Leyan first, which went through after twenty different attempts with barely one bar of signals.

"Honey! I miss you! Why haven\'t you called us?" Leyan asked, her voice full of worries.

"I was busy doing something... Is everything going fine back home?"

"Yeah, everything is going smoothly... But we all missed you. Even the babies had been complaining again, asking where dad is."

"I\'ll be back by the end of the mouth... No more than March 2nd." Xiaoyun gave an estimate.

"Okay... We\'ll be waiting for you!"

All of the girl\'s voice suddenly came out at the same time, making Xiaoyun realize that Leyan had put her phone on speaker.

"I really do miss them... Don\'t I?" Xiaoyun murmured to himself as he hung up the call, dialing Zhen Ren\'s phone number next.

After dialing almost a hundred times, it finally went through.

"Zhen Ren, you there?" Xiaoyun asked.

But no sound came from the other side, causing Xiaoyun to think about the code he needed.

"The king covers the tiger?" Xiaoyun asked.

"Chicken Stewed with Mushrooms... Commander! You finally called back! I need to ask you something very important."

"What is it?"

"Um, the whole thing that you set up in the metro... There\'s a standoff right now between people who want to join us and people who want to stay.

A few days ago, Mr.Lianzheng called me, asking us to intervene directly. But I said no after considering the risk of going to one of the nearest metro stations.

Did I do the right thing? Should I have accepted it? I feel like you wanted us to stay a distance from them, right?"

Xiaoyun thought for a second, then replied with a yes.

"You did the right thing. We already gave them everything they needed... It\'s up to them to save themselves.

Also, how\'s the progress in clearing Foshan?" Xiaoyun asked as he changed the conversation\'s direction.

"Um, we\'re facing a little difficulty. For some reason, the zombies here looked a lot more experienced in fighting humans.

It\'s like they have someone directing them where to attack our troops... Commander, I\'m sorry. I-I had already lost ten people."

Hearing Zhen Ren\'s voice sounding a little down, Xiaoyun didn\'t go too hard on him.

"Just be more careful next time... Remember, you got all the time in the world to clear it... Also, there might be an actual zombie leader in this city."

Xiaoyun replied as he thought back to the zombie that stood on top of the titan mutant\'s skull, which almost looked like a leader to all of them.

"Really? Another kind of mutant?"

"Yeah... Also, there are titan mutants that are even taller than tank mutants. But they looked a lot more flimsy than tank ones."

"Commander... You aren\'t serious, are you?" Zhen Ren asked in an uncertain voice.

"Do I look like I\'m joking?"

"No sir... I\'ll go tell that to the rest of the army——" Before Zhen Ren finished, the phone signal disappeared.

"Dang it. The cell towers are really going to die in this whole country." Xiaoyun murmured as he thought back to the cell tower they had created in the town.

As Xiaoyun fell into his deep train of thought, Kate walked out of the room with only a towel wrapped around her chest.

Despite walking in front of him and bowing down to get her clothes on the bed, he still didn\'t look back at her a single time, causing her to question her look.

"How\'s this pervert not looking at me once? Did something change in him?" Kate thought to herself as she began changing next to the bed.

After she finally finished changing, she tapped on Xiaoyun\'s shoulder.

"You can take a shower now."

"Okay..."

As Xiaoyun headed to the shower, Kate felt a little weirded out. He looked more completely than usual, engulfed in some deep thinking.

But after he came back out of the shower, he was finally back to his usual self as he instinctively sit down next to Kate on the bed.

"Xiaoyun, what are we doing next? Are we heading back now?" Kate curiously asked.

"Not yet... I have some weird feeling I should stay here just for a day or so." Xiaoyun replied.

"What weird feeling? When did you get a woman\'s sixth sense?" Kate joked to lighten up the mood.

"I\'m serious... You remember that zombie that stood on top of the titan mutant, right?"

"Yeah. What about him?" Kate asked as her face turned serious.

"I just feel like... He was directing all the zombies at that moment. Almost like a leader directing its soldiers."
