Carriage 14.
The zombie horde surged like a tsunami, flooding the carriage in an instant.
Clutching the Tiger Demon Strength Pill, Lin Dong's eyes flashed with icy resolve as he prepared to fight to the death!
This was his last trump card.
If even this failed, he would accept his fate!
Roar! Roar! Roar!
The horde roared, a foul stench washing over him!
Seeing this, Lin Dong stopped hesitating and raised his hand to swallow the pill.
But just then, a cool voice laced with authority suddenly rang out:
"Die!"
The voice carried an extraordinarily strange power, as though everyone had to obey her will!
The next second!
A shocking sight unfolded!
Bang!
The first zombie about to reach Lin Dong exploded without any warning!
Then came the second, the third...
Bang!
Bang!
Carriage 14 sounded like a celebration, with explosions going off one after another!
In mere moments!
An empty zone had been cleared in front of Lin Dong!
Lin Dong quickly scanned his surroundings and discovered that a young woman with a cool demeanor had appeared at the doorway to Carriage 15.
Her features were exquisitely beautiful, like a celestial maiden stepping out of a painting, but strangely, a symbol resembling Snake Eyes was painted on her fair, lovely face!
And besides the mark on her face, a Fangs symbol was faintly visible on her tongue!
She looked utterly mysterious.
"Stop staring!"
Just then, Zhou Gong's booming voice suddenly rang out, urging him, "Run! She can't hold on much longer!"
"Zhou Gong?!"
Looking at Zhou Gong, who had suddenly appeared, Lin Dong whipped his head toward the unfamiliar young woman. "She's Bai Ruoxue?!"
"You're not completely stupid!"
Zhou Gong was in terrible shape. With a bloody hole as thick as an arm in his lower abdomen, he leaned against the carriage doorway, his face pale, and cried out:
"These people are followers of the Demon-Worshipping Cult! They're trying to bring Train to Busan into the real world!"
"Every challenger who entered the instance has become a sacrifice in their blood ritual!"
"Run! This is no longer a Class A Incident we can handle!"
"The Demon-Worshipping Cult?!"
Lin Dong turned toward the mysterious man in Carriage 14.
"So you're little pups from the Special Affairs Bureau!"
Number Thirteen, the cultist, let out a harsh, mocking laugh. "You haven't even grown up, and you're already copying the Special Affairs Bureau's mad dogs, going out on missions?"
"Don't worry. I'll be sure to give you a proper welcome!"
As he spoke, Number Thirteen waved his hand, and another large wave of zombies immediately flooded into the carriage!
"Lin Dong, run!"
Zhou Gong urged anxiously, "Carriage 15 is safe!"
"Bai Ruoxue and I have already completed the Instance Mission. As long as we hold out until the train reaches the station, we'll be able to leave!"
Hearing this, Lin Dong quickly moved toward Bai Ruoxue, but when he instinctively glanced at the Train Model in Administrator Mode, he stopped dead!
"Come on, move!"
Leaning against the carriage doorway, Zhou Gong shouted anxiously, "I told you we shouldn't come back for him, but you insisted! Now he's dragging his feet. Happy now?!"
Lin Dong ignored Zhou Gong's complaints and instead stared coldly at Number Thirteen. "We can't go into Carriage 15!"
"Why?"
Zhou Gong yelled anxiously, "We just escaped from Carriage 15! Why can't we go back?!"
Lin Dong said nothing. His expression grim, he glanced at the Train Map again. Carriage 16 was packed with red dots!
They were lying in wait!
The moment they entered Carriage 15, the Demon-Worshipping Cult's people would flood in from Carriage 16!
Then they would truly be doomed!
"Zhou Gong, block the carriage door!"
Lin Dong roared, "Don't let go, even if it kills you!"
"Huh?!"
Zhou Gong looked baffled. "Why?!"
"Stop wasting words! Follow orders!"
With a fierce shout, Lin Dong immediately drew the Silent Sleeve Arrow and charged at Number Thirteen.
"Oh?"
Seeing this, Number Thirteen gave a quiet exclamation. "You've noticed already?"
"Quite perceptive, aren't you!"
"But what can you possibly do alone?"
As he spoke, Number Thirteen waved his hand again, and another dozen or so zombies flooded into Carriage 14!
The newly arrived zombies were noticeably taller and faster!
"Do! Not! Move!"
Bai Ruoxue's cool voice rang out again, and every zombie in the carriage froze!
The sight was utterly uncanny!
Taking advantage of the opening, Lin Dong wielded the crossbow in one hand and a bolt in the other, cutting down seven or eight zombies in succession and swiftly advancing two meters!
Splurt!
Bai Ruoxue spat out a mouthful of blood. Her body went limp, and she collapsed to the floor!
"She hasn't changed classes yet! Forcing herself to use Curse Words has already caused a backlash!"
Zhou Gong cried out.
"Damn it!"
Lin Dong had already charged some distance ahead, but when he saw zombies slip past him and rush straight toward Bai Ruoxue, he had to make a swift choice!
Save her or block the door?!
"Checkmate!"
Number Thirteen pointed a finger into the air, his voice brimming with smug satisfaction.
"Damn it! Damn it all!"
Seeing the zombies about to reach Bai Ruoxue, Lin Dong immediately swung the Sleeve Arrow in his hand around and attacked the zombies beside her!
But the moment Lin Dong left, it was as though a dam had lost its barrier, and the flood poured through unchecked!
Nothing remained to stop the zombie horde from flooding in!
"Damn it!"
Lin Dong clenched his teeth, glancing at the horde, then at Zhou Gong.
"Don't worry about me!"
Still blocking the door, Zhou Gong shouted, "I've got a way to stay alive!"
"Look after Bai Ruoxue! If she dies, she's dead for real!"
Lin Dong quickly glanced at Bai Ruoxue, who had completely lost the ability to move, then gritted his teeth and looked around.
Suddenly.
Lin Dong spotted the train seat the Mutant Tyrant had overturned earlier.
Without the slightest hesitation.
Lin Dong picked Bai Ruoxue up, ran to the seat, then placed it upside down over her and wedged it firmly against the carriage window.
Just like that, a makeshift shelter was ready.
But there was still a gap at the front.
Looking at the exposed, upside-down triangular opening, Lin Dong sighed. A beauty's kindness really is the hardest debt to bear!
Despite Zhou Gong's objections, Bai Ruoxue had insisted on returning to save him, even suffering a backlash for it.
I have to repay this debt!
With that thought, Lin Dong wasted no more time. He swallowed the Tiger Demon Strength Pill in one gulp, then resolutely blocked the opening with his body!
The next second!
Countless zombies roared and charged like a tsunami!
The first!
The second!
The... hundredth and beyond!
In just a few seconds, a mound of zombies had piled up over Lin Dong!
Countless zombies stacked layer upon layer!
Packed tightly together!
It was a horrifying sight!
Seeing this, Zhou Gong felt his scalp prickle, but he could not escape the fate of being swarmed by zombies either!
The first!
The second!
In mere moments, a mound of zombies had piled up over Zhou Gong as well.
But since Lin Dong had drawn most of their attention, the mound over Zhou Gong was noticeably smaller.
Two mounds of zombies sat piled up in Carriage 14, an utterly uncanny sight.
Especially with the outermost zombies still writhing and biting on top, making the sight all the more chilling...
