A Living Hell

At this moment.

Under Doctor Yang's stern gaze, the flat-haired man's voice gradually grew softer.

He glared at Li Chen resentfully.

Li Chen smiled faintly.

"A simple introduction, I am the person in charge of the Noah Shelter, a non-official organization."

"My purpose is to rescue talented individuals."

"You have two choices. First, stay here and wait for the army to rescue you. Second, come with me."

Li Chen would not force anyone.

He just didn't tell them that even the army was struggling to cope right now.

There was no food in the laboratory at all.

Staying put was tantamount to waiting for death!

Doctor Yang pushed up his glasses, looked at the others, and stated, "I am willing to go with you."

"I am too." Ning Jing also responded immediately.

The rest, however, were still hesitating.

Clearly, Li Chen's shelter was a civilian organization.

The country had already made preparations before the apocalypse.

Shelters had been established in various prefecture-level cities.

Everyone in the research institute had obtained a spot in a shelter.

Many people preferred to wait for official rescue where they were.

"Time is of the essence. I won't force anyone who doesn't want to go."

Li Chen nodded, signaling Doctor Yang and the other person to follow closely behind him.

Seeing that Li Chen was about to leave the isolation room with Doctor Yang.

Someone couldn't help but speak up.

"Teacher, I'll go with you too."

"Me too."

By the time the door of the isolation room was opened, even the flat-haired man had joined the group.

Some of them were afraid of death.

Others were worried about Doctor Yang and wanted to protect him closely.

The group was surrounded and protected by the android warriors as they moved towards the laboratory.

"Roar!"

The zombies were startled by the commotion.

Like drunks, they stumbled towards the group, attacking.

From viral infection to mutation, it took only twenty minutes.

These zombies had already lost their human appearance.

Veins bulged on their faces, and their mouths were stained with bright red liquid.

As they moved, unknown tissue and flesh occasionally dropped from their claws.

Many researchers were scared stiff, frozen in place.

One female researcher, her legs numb with fear, fell to the back of the group.

The trailing zombie finally found its chance and immediately pounced!

"Ah—"

Following the female researcher's scream, a gunshot rang out.

Bang!

The zombie fell in response.

On its purplish-blue claws, pieces of the female researcher's clothing were still hanging.

Just a little bit more!

The female researcher was pale with fright and hurriedly caught up with the group.

Under the cover of the android warriors, the remaining few zombies inside were cleared out.

The group finally arrived at the laboratory.

Doctor Yang and the others immediately copied the research data.

They gathered all the information and took it with them.

The bus was parked right at the entrance of the research institute.

After a few researchers got on the bus, it started again, heading straight for the second destination.

Noah had already located all the scientific researchers in Donghai City through signal positioning and sent their locations to Li Chen's phone.

Besides the people in the research institute, there were a few scattered researchers on vacation in several districts of Donghai City.

At this time, the entire Donghai City had completely fallen.

Less than one in ten of the military and police force remained!

Up to now, there was no absolute authority to organize order.

Ordinary citizens had no courage to resist and were pounced on by zombies one after another.

The scene on the street was like a living hell.

Screams and cries for help were endless.

A pregnant woman with a large belly was running frantically down the street.

She was bitten on the ankle by a zombie and instantly fell to the ground.

"Help... help me..."

Protecting her belly, the pregnant woman screamed and kicked at the zombie's head.

Countless people passed by her.

Not a single person spared her a second glance!

Some even accidentally stepped on her.

A moment later, the pregnant woman's cries for help grew fainter and fainter...

Seeing this, everyone on the bus took a step back.

Their faces showed unbearable pain!

These researchers in the institute had sensed something was wrong in the early stages of the virus outbreak.

They had all hidden away.

So they had never seen the true cruel scene of the apocalypse.

Only now did they realize how naive their previous thoughts were.

The streets had already become like this.

Not to mention other places!

The army was already struggling to protect itself, let alone send people to rescue them.

It's over!

Humanity is finished!

Facing such an apocalyptic scene, everyone fell silent in unison.

On the chaotic street.

A modified bus sped past.

The front of the bus was equipped with ferocious iron hooks.

They directly shattered the obstacles in front of the bus, which were then pushed aside by the wing plates on both sides.

Guns were mounted on every window.

Da da da—

Fire spewed from the dark muzzles.

Every bullet could take down a zombie attempting to climb onto the vehicle.

The android warriors had cold expressions.

While still in the cultivation pods, combat knowledge had already been input.

Every single one was a sharpshooter chosen from ten thousand!

The zombies on the street were headshot by bullets before they could even get close.

This level of strength opened the eyes of everyone in the vehicle.

"Who... who exactly are you?"

Doctor Yang's expression was complex as he stared directly into Li Chen's eyes and asked.

It was clear that this team was well-equipped.

Every single one of them was skilled.

Comparable to special forces!

How could a civilian shelter have such strength?

Moreover, the virus had only just broken out a little over ten minutes ago.

Li Chen was already able to bring people to the institute to rescue them.

This indicated that he had known the news long ago!

How could a civilian shelter know something that even the major powers didn't know?

Could it be that Li Chen had some powerful force behind him?

Li Chen smiled slightly.

"Why care about so much?"

"You just need to know that our shelter won't harm you, that's enough."

"As for the rest, you'll naturally understand when we get to the shelter."

Li Chen clearly didn't want to talk much more.

Although Doctor Yang was curious, he obediently shut his mouth.

There was nothing wrong with his mind.

His life was now in Li Chen's hands.

Li Chen had so many armed personnel, and the force behind him was probably also very powerful.

Furthermore, when everyone was in danger, it was Li Chen who brought people to descend from the sky.

Just for the grace of saving their lives, they should obediently listen.

Just as the people in the vehicle were lost in their thoughts.

Suddenly!

In front of the bus, about thirty humans appeared.

Their expressions were terrified.

They spread their arms wide, blocking the front of the bus.

"Let us on!"

"Open the door quickly, please!"

These people shouted hoarsely.

They treated the bus as their only life-saving straw.

However...

Boom—

Not only did the bus not slow down, but the android driving it stepped on the accelerator instead.

It directly bypassed these thirty humans and continued driving forward.

"What's going on? Why aren't you saving people?"

A burly man chased after the bus, roaring angrily.

The rest of the people also chased after the bus, running.

They spewed the most vicious curses of their lives.

"Are you crazy? Stop the car!"

"Damn bastards! You're just watching people die!"

"You'll all go to hell!"

Facing these words, the androids on the bus remained indifferent.

They gradually pulled away.

Until they couldn't even hear these vicious curses anymore!

The man with the flat top immediately walked up to Li Chen and said angrily.

"Stop the car!"

"Didn't you see there are so many people!"
