For a long while, everyone stood frozen in place.
They thought Ye Ruan had been infected.
Tears instantly streamed down Yang Xiaomian's face, and he cried so hard he could not speak.
The monster had bitten through the web of Ye Ruan's hand. Blood dripped from his fingertips, soon pooling on the ground.
He paid little attention to it. Hearing the timer, he hurriedly urged everyone to get outside and into the Armored Vehicle.
Once everyone had jumped out, the timer's beeping sped up noticeably. Before Ye Ruan could urge him on, Gu Cheng understood with a single glance.
He slammed down the accelerator, and the Armored Vehicle rolled over zombies as it drove forward. After a hundred or two hundred meters, flames suddenly shot into the sky behind them!
A mushroom cloud rose from the ground, and Gu Cheng shouted:
"Everyone, hold on!"
The blast left everything in its path in ruins. In an instant, the horde of zombies behind them was swallowed by flames and reduced to ash.
Soon, a tremendous force sent the Armored Vehicle hurtling forward. Despite being prepared, everyone still tumbled into a sprawling heap.
Gu Cheng gripped the steering wheel tightly and floored the accelerator. Only after they had driven a kilometer did their speed gradually drop.
"Li Rang, come drive." Gu Cheng unbuckled his seat belt and left the driver's seat.
The jolt had left Ye Ruan dazed. Luckily, He Zhou, Yang Xiaomian, and the others had managed to catch him, keeping him from being thrown through the cramped space.
Gu Cheng hurriedly picked him up and set him on a nearby seat. At the sight of the bite marks on his hand, his eyes abruptly reddened.
But he said nothing. He simply cleaned the wound in silence, applied medicine, and bandaged it.
