Li Nan drew his knife and bitterly smiled, "These three stabs almost cost me my life!"
The Jacket Man pointed at Li Nan's chest with his finger and laughed, "Although your three stabs were quite dangerous, their placement was surprisingly good. They all missed the heart chambers. It seems you are quite confident!"
Li Nan tore off his shirt and tied a knot at the spot on his chest. "I studied medicine, so I know where to stab to be dangerous but not fatal. I just didn't know Brother Three had some knowledge of medicine too!"
"Having often wielded knives and guns, it's natural to know the critical and dangerous spots of the human body. It's not surprising!"
Li Nan handed the dagger back and said, "So now can Brother Three let it go?"
The Jacket Man nodded, "I'm starting to appreciate you a bit!"
Li Nan frowned, "It seems like this isn't the time to be happy!"
As he spoke, Li Nan turned towards the iron door on the rooftop. "It looks like the Zombies have caught a whiff of blood!"
Below the building, Zombies surged from all directions, gathering in front of the Department Store. However, the fire in that building had diminished, and the temperature had dropped. The Zombies had lost their intense pursuit of high temperatures and turned towards Li Nan and the others instead!
Li Nan cursed under his breath; it seemed today was not going to end well for him. One wave had not settled before another rose; this wave had begun while another was still coming!
Li Nan looked at the iron door that had been rattled repeatedly and thought, "What do we do now?"
Lin Hai stood beside Li Nan, indicating that he would follow Li Nan's lead, while the remaining five stood behind the Jacket Man, clearly showing their positions!
The Jacket Man smiled and said, "In a situation like this, if we fight individually, it's hard to find any chance of survival!"
Li Nan nodded, "I will obey Brother Three, but please give your orders!"
The Jacket Man looked at Lin Hai behind Li Nan and asked, "My brother is new to the camp, so why do I feel unfamiliar with you?"
Lin Hai replied, "It's normal that Brother Three hasn't seen me before. Before Nan Ge arrived, I was just a timid person living on scraps, so naturally, I wouldn't catch Brother Three's eye!"
The Jacket Man stared at Lin Hai, then secretly smiled and said to Li Nan, "There's no choice; only by working together can we survive. So there's no talk of obedience; it's just cooperation!"
Li Nan agreed, "Brother Three's words are reasonable!"
The Jacket Man waved his hand. The long-haired person behind him had already taken a segment of Nylon Rope from his body, which was about eighty meters long.
The long-haired person tied the dagger that Li Nan handed over to the front end of the rope, then swung his arm and threw the rope with the dagger like a flying dragon claw, instantly hooking onto a water pipe on the building across from them.
That building was about ten stories high, meaning it was twice the height of their current building. The Nylon Rope formed a diagonal line like the hypotenuse of a right triangle, and they needed to climb in an upward direction!
The long-haired person tested the grip of the rope on the other side and found it could bear weight; one person's weight was no problem!
He tied the other end of the rope to the gas pipeline beneath them and said to the Jacket Man, "The rope is fine; we can climb up to that building across without any issues!"
The Jacket Man glanced at Li Nan and said, "How about you go first?"
Li Nan looked back at Lin Hai and said, "The iron door behind us won't hold for long; someone must stay behind. Otherwise, those in front won't be able to move steadily. We need to figure out who should go first."
Jacket Man laughed and said, "It's simple. They go first, and you and I will hold the rear, how about that?"
Li Nan nodded and then shouted to Lin Hai behind him, "Did you hear that? Hurry up and move over!"
Lin Hai understood Li Nan's intention and replied, "You still have injuries. I'll hold the rear; you go first!"
Li Nan smiled wryly and said, "Stop with the sentimental stuff. Just hurry over. Do you want me to embarrass myself in front of Brother Three?"
Unable to insist further, Lin Hai immediately slung the AK-47 across his back and stealthily approached the rope.
Jacket Man also quietly urged, "Let Li Nan's brother go first!"
The long-haired man hesitated slightly, but since Brother Three had already spoken, he had no reason to argue.
Lin Hai tightly grasped the Nylon Rope, then suspended himself with his lower body hanging in the air, relying solely on his hands to hang onto the rope while needing to move diagonally upward for fifty or sixty meters to reach the building across.
With both hands bearing weight and needing to maneuver using only his hands, this challenge was strenuous for anyone. Moreover, due to the weight of the Nylon Rope, it could only support one person at a time. Therefore, the situation was extremely difficult for Li Nan and the others!
Originally, Li Nan had planned to be the last one to leave because his own explosive power could buy him some extra time. However, he didn't expect that Brother Three would also voluntarily stay behind!
Looking at the already shaky iron door, Jacket Man smiled and said, "There's a saying: 'Whoever fights alongside me today is my brother!' So tell me, do you see me as a brother?"
Li Nan smiled wryly and replied, "Brother Three, you're joking!"
As soon as the words left his mouth, the iron door behind him was broken through by a horde of Zombies, all of them rushing forward with bared teeth and drooling mouths!
The Jacket Man raised his Submachine Gun and fired several shots, taking down a number of Zombies. Li Nan was not to be outdone; he readied his Compound Bow and sent several Feathered Arrows flying!
Seeing Li Nan's weapon, the Jacket Man laughed and said, "That’s good for ambushes, but in close combat like this, you need something more powerful!"
The Jacket Man tossed a silver pistol from his waist to Li Nan and said, "Desert Eagle. A man should use this!"
Li Nan caught the silver pistol, feeling its weight. After firing a single bullet, he felt a tingling in his hand from the recoil, which was surprisingly strong. Without any preparation, it nearly knocked him off balance!
Although this silver Desert Eagle had a strong recoil, its shooting performance was outstanding. One shot to a Zombie's head caused it to explode into chunks of flesh and blood, leaving no trace behind!
"Great gun!" Li Nan thought to himself as he took down five more Zombies.
The Jacket Man chuckled and said, "Guns and women are two things a man can never do without. A man might not have a beautiful wife, but he must have a beautiful and outstanding gun!"
Li Nan took down three more Zombies, responding to Brother Three's sentiment.
At that moment, Lin Hai had safely reached the rooftop of the building across from them, while the Long-Faced Man followed closely behind.
The Jacket Man looked back and noticed only Fatty remaining. He shouted, "You’re so heavy; don’t pull the rope down with you!"
Fatty replied confidently, "Don’t worry, Brother Three. I know my limits. If I let Brother Three die here, that would be a huge sin for me!"
Jacket Man let out a hearty laugh and said to Li Nan, "So, what should we do? Which one of us goes first?"
Li Nan weighed the Desert Eagle in his hand and replied with a smile, "If you give me another magazine, I'll let Brother Three go first. How about that?"
Jacket Man pulled out two magazines for the Desert Eagle from his chest and tossed his Submachine Gun to Li Nan. Then he shouted, "Thanks, brother!"
With a loud voice, Jacket Man jumped onto the Nylon Rope, his arms swaying as he moved towards the building across.
Li Nan smiled knowingly; it had been a long time since he had encountered someone so genuine. He was generous to his subordinates and loyal to his friends. Having such a person lead the way made Li Nan feel truly convinced!
With his right hand holding the Submachine Gun and his left hand gripping the Desert Eagle, Li Nan activated dual-wield mode. The two gun barrels spat fire simultaneously, taking down no less than a hundred Zombies. However, behind that door, endless Zombies continued to surge forth, making it impossible to kill them all.
After about half a minute of holding on, the fallen Zombie bodies had piled up into a wall, barely alleviating Li Nan's awkward situation!
Facing the relentless tide of Zombies, this was the first time Li Nan felt overwhelmed and realized just how terrifying it was when they came in hordes!
Just as Jacket Man was about to reach the building across, his body suddenly shook, and then he slid down completely, unable to hold on!
Hearing the sound of the Nylon Rope tied to the gas pipe snapping behind him, Li Nan immediately turned around. Just as the rope was about to break completely, he lunged forward and grabbed hold of the snapping rope, pulling with all his might to buy some time for Brother Three!
Suspended on the Nylon Rope, Jacket Man found himself in an awkward position—unable to go up or down. But in an instant, the rope behind him stabilized, and when he looked back, it was actually Li Nan who was exerting force!
Jacket Man shouted, "I owe you my life!"
At this moment, Li Nan disregarded any sense of identity and shouted, "Hurry up, I can't hold on much longer!"
Just as Li Nan was pulling on the Nylon Rope, a group of Zombies had already crossed over the wall of corpses and were now clinging to Li Nan's back, ready to bite!
Lin Hai, who was watching from across the way, immediately raised his AK-47 but was stopped by a long-haired person. "At this distance, we definitely need a professional sniper!"
The Fatty, who had just been teased moments ago, was now lying on the ground with a serious expression, holding a sniper rifle capable of precise long-range targeting!
Just as the Zombie behind Li Nan was about to take a big bite, a bullet flew over from the rooftop across the street, grazing Li Nan's cheek and hitting the Zombie right between the eyes!
With a loud thud, the drooling Zombie fell heavily to the ground!
Li Nan heard the commotion behind him and glanced sideways, cursing under his breath, "Damn it! That was close!"
At that moment, the Fatty across from him whistled and said to Li Nan, "I've already repaid Brother Three's debt for you!"
Li Nan struggled to hold onto the Nylon Rope and shouted back, "He owes me, I owe you; this doesn't cancel out!"
