"How could they..."

Han Rui's expression was somewhat blank.

Last night, they had cheered each other on, agreeing to hold on for two more days, and once the zombies downstairs were gone, everyone could go to the Shui Ze University Base... But, but why...?

Why did they have to commit suicide? They only needed to wait two more days!

"What exactly happened!"

Han Rui forced herself to calm down, her gaze somewhat stern.

Ou Yingying didn't dare to meet Han Rui's eyes, and just lowered her head, covering her mouth and crying.

Sun Wei Guang looked sad as he said:

"Honey, after Li Cheng woke up just now, his mental state was a bit off. He said he wanted to die. Wu Fei and I were preparing to talk him out of it, but he suddenly jumped! Wu Fei was close and grabbed Li Cheng's arm, but he was pulled down with him..."

"Li Cheng didn't seem like someone who had lost hope..."

Han Rui scratched her messy hair in frustration.

Sun Wei Guang secretly pinched Ou Yingying.

Ou Yingying's body trembled, and then she grabbed Han Rui's arm, crying with her head lowered:

"Sister Han, let's, let's escape now..."

Sun Wei Guang immediately grabbed Han Rui's shoulders and shook her, saying, "Yes, honey, let's go now! Li Cheng's suicide, besides despairing of the world, might also be to buy us a chance. The zombies downstairs have all gone to him. We can't let his good intentions go to waste!"

Han Rui quickly broke free from the two and went to the edge of the roof, looking down. She saw that Li Cheng's head was covered in blood, as if he had landed headfirst, probably dying on the spot.

Wu Fei was still crawling on the ground, but he was covered in blood, and even his Yellow Hair was dyed red.

Most importantly, the zombies at the entrance had surrounded them, and had even begun to devour them... Clearly, neither of them would survive! "We... let's go!"

Han Rui wasn't one to dawdle. Since the situation was beyond saving, there was no point in saying anything more. Escaping now was the most appropriate time.

She quickly led the two to pack their things and go downstairs.

There were no zombies in the stairwell, and the few zombies downstairs were attracted by the two people who had fallen, so Han Rui led the two all the way without hindrance.

The zombies devouring the two were focused on their meal and didn't notice the people coming down.

Han Rui immediately gestured for Sun Wei Guang and Ou Yingying to go to the nearby Wall. The Wall wasn't high, and there were no zombies there, so they could climb over it.

There were still several zombies at the gate, and without using a gun, they obviously couldn't get through. And using a gun would be suicide. So climbing over the Wall was the best option.

Han Rui took one last look at the two teammates surrounded by zombies, feeling very sad. They had come with six people, and now only three were leaving.

But now wasn't the time to be sad. She tried not to make any noise and waved to the two behind her.

Sun Wei Guang and Ou Yingying quickly followed. However, during the run, Ou Yingying seemed to feel someone watching her. She subconsciously turned her head and saw a bloodshot eye staring at her from the zombie crowd.

She instantly shivered, then tightly grabbed Sun Wei Guang's clothes and ran away without looking back.

It wasn't until he saw the female police officer climb over the Wall last that Wang Tao ended the video recording.

He originally just wanted to watch the drama, so he took out his phone to record, but he didn't expect to witness the ugliness of human nature.

In fact, if these Survivors had just waited a little longer, until Wang Tao drove the zombies away later, they probably could have left safely without any casualties.

Of course, they didn't know about this. Wang Tao couldn't contact them either.

However, Wang Tao didn't think it was his fault. It was good enough that he could protect himself, let alone care about others. He was just a little sorry that there were two fewer Survivors in this world...

This incident also reminded him that now was the apocalypse, and while he could trust others, it was better to trust himself! Looking at the two Survivors surrounded and devoured by zombies, Wang Tao picked up his weapon.

"Let's go take a look..."

After putting on his equipment, Wang Tao left the small building and ran towards the bottom of the building.

Today, almost all the zombies in the Water Plant had left. Besides the few zombies at the gate, there were only four zombies left at the entrance of the building.

Four zombies weren't a big problem for Wang Tao. Especially in this open space, even if he couldn't beat them, he could run back.

Jogging to the front of the building, the zombies were probably eating too seriously and didn't notice Wang Tao coming over. Wang Tao, with a Steel Pipe Short Spear in one hand and a Steel Pipe Claw Hammer in the other, attacked two zombies.

Wu Fei was filled with hatred.

He hated himself for being blind and actually falling for such a venomous woman!

He worked twelve hours a day, and handed over four thousand out of his six thousand yuan monthly salary to her! He cared for her every day, took her out for big meals on weekends, and gave her all kinds of small gifts on holidays! When she was sick, he went to work during the day and stayed with her in the hospital ward all night; when the end of the world came, the first person he thought of was her...

He thought he had done enough. Where had he let her down? Why did she push him downstairs?

"You bitch! I won't let you go even if I become a ghost—wait, someone's coming!"

"He, he's killing zombies! He's so powerful! The zombies are no match for him at all!"

"If only I had his strength..."

"Save me—"

A few minutes later.

Wang Tao moved his mind and instantly collected the spoils.

[Obtained: Purified Water (Small) *4] [Purified Water (Small): 5L, drinkable]

All four zombies dropped Purified Water (Small). Wang Tao didn't mind having more purified water.

Upholding the fine tradition of thrift, Wang Tao felt around on these four zombies again and found a few wallets and a pack of cigarettes.

Then he looked at the two unlucky survivors.

The male college student's neck had been bitten off, his eyes wide open, and he died with lingering resentment.

What surprised Wang Tao was that Yellow Hair was not dead yet.

[10/105]

But he only had ten drops of blood left, and was in a dying state.

Wang Tao came to Yellow Hair and squatted down, looking at this unlucky guy whose thighs, arms, one eye, and half of his face had been eaten. He frowned and said:

"Are you conscious? Blink if you are."

Hearing Wang Tao's words, Yellow Hair blinked frantically in excitement.

"Glug..."

He wanted to speak, but blood spurted out as soon as he opened his mouth.

"Don't talk if you don't want to die."

Wang Tao stripped off a few pieces of clothing from the zombies next to him, simply wrapped them around Yellow Hair's head, and then grabbed his legs, dragging him all the way back to the outside of the small building.

"Wait outside."

After giving the instruction, Wang Tao went into the house, came to the airdrop box, and took out a bottle of Inhibitor.

He was worried about not knowing the effect of the Inhibitor, but now the Test Subject had arrived!
