Simple meals.

The aroma of rice wafts in the room, whetting your appetite just by smelling it.

In the apocalypse, it is really a good choice to be able to taste the aroma of hot rice.

At this time.

Dong Dong...

There was a loud noise outside.

The sound not only alarmed Lin Fan, but also Sunshine Residential Complex and other survivors.

"What's going on?"

Lin Fan carried the rice bowl to the balcony and looked outside. The sound was not coming from near the community, but from a distance. Then, he found zombies wandering out from every corner, chasing the sound and running towards that direction.

Room 603.

The four old people were enjoying their lunch. When they heard the noise outside, they looked confused, thinking that something had happened, but after listening carefully.

Old Man Wang said, "This sound is very similar to Clock Tower's voice over at Xiangyang Road, but I haven't heard the full sound for many years. Back then, Clock Tower's voice was very loud, and the sudden sound scared an old man to have a heart attack. He was directly reported and then banned."

Xu Guifen looked at the time and said, "It's twelve o'clock. It's exactly the hour. Someone should have repaired the Clock Tower over there and ring the bell at twelve o'clock again. The sound can last for several minutes. At such a sound, the group of zombies will definitely be attracted to it. To be honest, this may give some survivors a few minutes to search for supplies."

Old Man Zhou said, "I don't know which survivor did it. He is really a good person. He was able to come to the end of the world. The thought of using Clock Tower's voice to briefly attract the attention of zombies and buy some time for the surrounding survivors is really good. It shows that there is still hope in times of crisis."

Liang Yan The old man agrees with this statement.

Cake Shop.

Su Xiaoxiao was startled by the sudden sound. He opened a corner of the curtain and cautiously looked outside.

Shockingly, I saw a scene of corpses running wildly.

"It's really scary."

She never thought about leaving.

Cake Shop is very good. There is no shortage of food for the time being, so she just wants to wait quietly. When the day comes when the food is gone, she wants to die here.

If you are encountered by zombies when you go out, the feeling of being bitten will definitely be very painful.

If you are met by bad guys when you go out, your body will definitely be ravaged and broken, you will have no dignity, you will be unlucky, and you may be beaten by a mixed group of people. Thinking of that kind of scene, it is better to die here.

At this moment.

She heard a sound coming from outside.

Watch quietly.

"There are actually survivors around me." Su Xiaoxiao was very surprised.

She has been hiding here and has not found any survivors. Thinking of the door downstairs, she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Fortunately, it was closed, otherwise her Cake Shop would definitely be the first choice for survivors.

She found that the survivors, both men and women, were all haggard and running into a store, moving things around like bandits.

Then he seemed to be afraid of being discovered by zombies.

Leave in a hurry.

When passing by Cake Shop, one of the survivors pointed to her store and said something to the people around her, but it didn't seem to make sense and she hurried away again.

Su Xiaoxiao was hiding in fear.

I kept thinking about it.

Have I been discovered?

What she fears most is coming into contact with this group of survivors. At least the apocalyptic novels she has read tell her that people's hearts are unpredictable and no one can believe it.

At this time.

A Steel Beast parked quietly on the side of the road.

Sound erupts with Clock Tower.

Wave after wave of zombies poured out from all directions, running in the direction of Clock Tower.

"Big Sister, the idea you came up with is really good. From now on, twelve o'clock at noon every day will be a good opportunity for us to collect supplies." Xu Zeyang said with a smile.

Big Sister said, "This method may not always work."

Xu Zeyang knows what Big Sister is thinking. If there is any intelligent person among the zombies, they will definitely think that this is a trap set by humans.

After waves of zombies ran towards Clock Tower.

Make sure no zombies appear.

"Quick, act. We only have two minutes to collect supplies. We can take as much as we can." Big Sister said.

They took the risk to repair Clock Tower's clock, not only for themselves, but also to bring a glimmer of life to other survivors.

A head-on collision with zombies.

Not a wise choice.

Zombies are too scary. First of all, the crazy expressions of zombies make people feel scared, and they bite without knowing the pain. If you are not careful, you will be bitten. Once you are bitten, you really have no chance.

They have seen what happened after someone was bitten by a zombie.

He will turn into a zombie in a very short period of time. The speed of this transformation is really too fast, and it is scary.

At Clock Tower.

Countless zombies gathered there.

Zombies who could hear the bell were attracted.

How far can the sound of a bell travel?

For the entire Huang City, the number of zombies here is only a drop in the bucket.

The zombies roared ferociously and stretched out their hands to grab at the source of the sound. The bell came from above. The zombies could only stare.

Bang!

Bang!

Suddenly, in the torrent of zombies, there was a strong zombie like a humanoid Tank, waving its strong arms casually. Every time he waved, a group of zombies were knocked away and torn apart to create a path.

The size of this zombie is like a hill.

Belongs to special zombies.

His head was bloated. Looking at the Clock Tower that made the sound, he jumped up, like a spider, quickly climbed to the top, roared ferociously, and swung his fist at will to destroy the bell that made the sound.

Roar!

The giant zombie roared.

The group of zombies followed and roared. The roar was loud and deafening. Without the influence of the bell, the zombies that gathered around spread in all directions.

In the distance, there is a rooftop.

"What terrible zombies, with such climbing ability and destructive power, it is impossible to deal with them." A man with short hair, holding a telescope, observed the situation of Clock Tower in the distance. As the bell rang, the surrounding zombies rushed towards that direction. They knew that this was the best time to search for supplies.

His name is Gu Hang, a soldier who came back to visit his relatives. He has been in the army for nine years and is a third-level non-commissioned officer. Who would have thought that a few days after returning home, the so-called apocalypse would occur.

Zombies from movies and TV shows actually appeared.

This shocked him.

As the zombies continued to retreat, he quietly left the rooftop.

The elevator was blocked by benches, and the stairwell was blocked by various furniture just in case. There was nothing we could do.

Go back inside.

Gu Hang looked at the survivors sitting there helplessly. As he appeared, the survivors looked at him expectantly. He was the only soldier here. At this moment, he seemed to be the backbone of the survivors' hearts.

There were five survivors in total, four women, plus him, and one male survivor.

One of the female survivors was pregnant, and the other male survivor was the woman's husband.

Originally there were several other survivors here.

However, due to disagreements, they immediately parted ways. No one knows what the situation of that group of people is now.

"Brother Gu, how are you?" the man asked.

Gu Hang shook his head, "It's not too good. The bell should have been made by other survivors, attracting the group of zombies, but they were quickly destroyed by the zombies. How are my siblings? Do you still have a stomachache?"

The man said, "I'm feeling much better, but I feel like I'm going to give birth in the next few days. I'm afraid... me."

Gu Hang patted the man on the shoulder and said solemnly, "Don't worry, I'm here."

He had no other choice but to say this.

Now that it's the end of the world, you definitely can't go to the hospital to give birth, and the danger of giving birth here is even more terrifying. If you scream, you will definitely attract zombies. If you bleed, etc., what should you do?

The man lowered his head, seemingly reassured by Gu Hang's words, but he knew that this was a very dangerous thing, and maybe his wife might really die.

Three other female survivors comforted him.

Why do they want to stay here.

The first is trust in Gu Hang, which is a kind of trust in soldiers.

The survivors who left the group asked them to go together and stay with a pregnant woman and die without knowing how.

But they didn't leave.

Because, they saw a naked and aggressive look in the eyes of the survivors.

They are afraid.

I would rather be here than leave with them.

"You guys wait for me here, I'll go out to find something." Gu Hang looked at the pregnant woman, pondered for a moment, and decided to go out and find something, just in case.

"Brother Gu, I will accompany you."

"No, you stay here to take care of them. My physical fitness is better than yours. If I encounter danger, I can climb away."

Gu Hang smiled.
