System Red River is Online

The zombies in the distance howled and charged towards the building.

The stairwell was already packed with zombies, every step covered in them.

From time to time, zombies were squeezed and fell to the first floor, but the zombies on the first floor were like a human pyramid, piling up and rushing towards the upper floors.

Li Mu Chuan felt a little apprehensive and went to the balcony to look down.

Seeing this made his heart pound even more. He saw that along the building wall, the zombies below were frantically climbing up the glass. Looking closely, he saw that the building's main entrance was already blocked. These zombies were simply preparing to climb up the outside wall of the building.

"What a joke!"

Cold sweat instantly dripped down Li Mu Chuan's face.

This was a thirty-two-story building, estimated to be over a hundred meters tall.

A hundred meters! How could these zombies climb up the outside wall of the building?

However, just as Li Mu Chuan leaned out to look, the zombies below noticed him, and their howls instantly became more fervent.

One by one, they frantically tried to climb up the outer wall.

More and more zombies gathered, many below already acting as a base. In an instant, these zombies had climbed to a height of over three meters.

A little further away, Li Mu Chuan could clearly see several black lines running towards them at extremely high speed.

These were all the zombies near the building, now all attracted over.

Li Mu Chuan felt a sudden panic watching this scene. These zombies were too fierce.

The zombies below the building were still piling up, gradually approaching the top of the building.

In a few breaths, they had reached the height of the fourth floor.

More and more zombies were gathering from all directions, and their speed of climbing up the building was also increasing.

When the height of the zombies reached around the sixteenth floor, the situation suddenly improved slightly.

The piled height was too great, and with the instability at the bottom, sections of the zombie pile often collapsed.

For every meter they climbed up, they would fall back about half a meter, significantly slowing down the piling speed.

However, the situation didn't improve for long, and the next scene made Li Mu Chuan's heart sink.

A group of small creatures appeared from somewhere near the building.

These small creatures were extremely light and climbed up the building rapidly by stepping on the zombies below.

When these small creatures climbed to the height of over ten floors, Li Mu Chuan immediately recognized them.

"Cats!"

Li Mu Chuan's face instantly changed after recognizing these animals.

These things were not to be feared in normal times, but now that they had turned into zombies, they were simply strengthened countless times over.

Being scratched or bitten by these things would likely result in infection.

The most crucial thing was that this creature was too agile, and its climbing speed was incredibly fast right now!

Li Mu Chuan gripped the rebar in his hand tightly, his eyes fixed on the mutated cat downstairs. As soon as it got a little closer, he would immediately knock it down.

Around the building, the area was now densely packed with zombies.

The nearby zombies seemed to have all been attracted, and looking down, it was a vast, dark mass.

In the distance.

Li Qingxiao watched as countless zombies frantically climbed the outer wall of the building towards the rooftop.

Black lines formed by zombies, like stairs, hung on the outer wall, resembling a black liquid constantly encroaching upwards.

A hint of worry was in Li Qingxiao's beautiful eyes. She knew that the person standing on the tall building was Li Mu Chuan.

Once these zombies climbed to the rooftop, he would be dead.

Besides these zombies, there were also some infected animals.

Rats, cats, dogs, and other creatures that people used to ignore would become deadly infected bodies.

Moreover, they would gain even more powerful enhancements.

In this situation, there was absolutely no way to survive.

A strange sense of anxiety gripped Li Qingxiao's heart. She bit her lip hard with her pearly teeth and quickly rushed towards the laboratory.

The surrounding zombies had been attracted away, so she had to enter the laboratory as quickly as possible.

Pushing a small cart, she arrived at the back of the laboratory at an extremely fast speed. Li Qingxiao immediately went to the machine room and quickly activated the backup emergency power system.

"Buzz!"

With a buzzing sound, the backup power successfully started.

The surrounding lights automatically turned on at this moment.

And at this moment, the computers in the laboratory also lit up, with green and red lights flashing alternately.

System loading... 1%... 10%.

System loading complete!

"Beep, detecting Red River Third Laboratory is offline."

"Red River Fifth Laboratory is offline."

"Red River Eighth Laboratory is offline."

In the computer center, the indicator lights, which should have been green, were constantly flashing red.

As various protocols were activated in the computer, all the gates outside the laboratory instantly dropped and were then reinforced and locked.

The air circulation inside the laboratory was activated, the lights automatically turned on, and disinfection began.

In an instant, this laboratory became the safest place.

Li Qingxiao looked at the empty laboratory around her at this moment. Under the illumination of the lights, it appeared so stark white, yet her heart felt somewhat empty.

"Honghe, pull up the surveillance footage of the building 500 meters southwest."

Li Qingxiao quickly walked towards the monitoring room, her face filled with urgency and anxiety.

"Yes, surveillance footage has been pulled up."

Honghe's voice sounded.

When Li Qingxiao arrived at the monitoring room and looked at the surveillance screen, she saw that the outer wall of the tall building in the distance looked as if someone had smeared it with ink.

A black line extended from the bottom of the building to the top, and looking at it from afar made her heart feel numb.

At the top of the building, these zombies had already climbed to the peak.

Li Mu Chuan waved his hand, sending an infected cat that had climbed up flying down the building with a rebar. His face was covered in sweat.

The roars of the zombies were clearly audible, and the iron door behind him began to deform, looking like it wouldn't hold for much longer.

Li Mu Chuan took a step back. The next moment, like a geyser, countless zombies gushed out and lunged directly at Li Mu Chuan.

Li Mu Chuan came to the edge of the platform on the other side, waving his hand to knock down the zombies trying to bite him, while nervously watching the time.

Ten seconds left!

Li Mu Chuan took a deep breath. Zombies had already filled the three directions in front of him, left and right, surging towards Li Mu Chuan.

Li Mu Chuan used his greatest strength to smash fiercely at the zombies in the three directions, but this time it didn't have much effect.

The zombies had already lunged forward, and Li Mu Chuan could already smell the foul odor from their mouths.

Two seconds left!

Li Mu Chuan suddenly jumped out of the building. The zombies behind him, like dumplings being dropped into a pot, frantically rushed towards Li Mu Chuan.

And in the next moment, Li Mu Chuan directly turned into a white light and disappeared from this world.

Li Qingxiao in the laboratory in the distance stared blankly at the monitoring room in front of her. Li Mu Chuan had jumped in another direction.

All she could see was Li Mu Chuan jumping off the building at the last moment. Jumping from such a tall building...

She knew Li Mu Chuan would die, but seeing this scene, Li Qingxiao suddenly felt a wrenching pain in her heart.
