"Mengying, wake up quickly! It's been so long, why aren't you waking up?"
It hurts so much, why is it so dark here? Who is calling me? The voice sounds so familiar.
Li Mengying trembled as she opened her eyes, only to be met with Lin Xiaoxiao's concerned gaze and a frightened expression.
Her head ached as Li Mengying struggled to sit up.
Lin Xiaoxiao saw Li Mengying's movements and reached out to her back, whispering, "Mengying, you finally woke up. You don't know, it's been a whole day and night. You didn't wake up, and there are so many zombies outside. I was so scared to death alone."
Zombies? Oh right. Li Mengying hugged her head, curled up in the corner, slowly recalling everything.
Since a month ago, with the leakage of a certain super-grade virus from the X City Luminous Virus Research Institute, the entire X City has been heavily contaminated.
At first, only the area near the Luminescent Virus was infected, and most residents began to cough violently, their faces turned blue, and they showed symptoms of gradually stiffening limbs.
But no one will take these small matters to heart, and everyone just treats it as a sudden influenza outbreak.
Soon the hospital was crowded with patients, but unfortunately the doctors did not find anything special, just treating it as a common influenza virus and not paying much attention to it.
Until one day, a patient with a dark complexion, swollen red eyes, and protruding fangs bit the nurse next to them, turning this ordinary influenza outbreak into a zombie outbreak.
That day, the entire Z country sounded the alarm, and X City was locked down, but it was already too late.
In the first two weeks of the zombie outbreak, the government was barely able to maintain order and information dissemination.
But soon the government couldn't contain the news and issued an official website notice.
Apocalyptic era.
After receiving the government's response, panicked citizens of X City began to flee in all directions. In just six hours, X City lost communication and experienced traffic congestion, becoming a place of collapse.
Apart from X City, those who tried to escape from the quarantined X City also brought panic and virus transmission to other cities and countries. As a result, the zombie craze began to erupt in various corners of the world.
The world started to descend into chaos, gradually becoming a frenzy of bloodthirsty zombies.
At first, Li Mengying and Lin Xiaoxiao were just college students in X City, and they didn't know what was happening in X City. They just followed the counselor's arrangement to stay in the dormitory, waiting for the daily feeding by the security personnel.
It wasn't until one day when a zombie outbreak occurred in the X City hospital, and people in the streets and alleys started to flee, that these students realized the seriousness of the situation.
People running out of the hospital were bitten on the neck by the zombies chasing them from behind. The surrounding zombies smelled the fresh blood and began to turn the beads in the red blood circle, then turned and rushed forward one after another, swarming together to feast on the delicious flesh and blood.
The people were terrified, emitting continuous screams. The noisy sound attracted the attention of the zombies, and soon the zombies lifted their heads, struggling to adjust their uncoordinated bodies to continue chasing after the next delicacy.
Li Mengying and Lin Xiaoxiao and two other roommates were scared to death as they lay on the window of the dormitory watching all this. They dared not move, only hoping that the government would send someone to rescue them. After cowering in the dormitory for more than a week, their food was almost running out, and the closed iron gate downstairs occasionally made a banging sound, which was the sound of zombies gnawing at the door. It wouldn't be long before the dormitory building was also overrun.
Li Mengying proposed to leave here, to find a new shelter and food, but only Lin Xiaoxiao agreed with her and left with her.
And now, it is the fourth day since they escaped. They were originally hiding in a residential building, but in order to get some food, the loud sound of prying open the door attracted two zombies around them.
Li Mengying and Lin Xiaoxiao had no choice but to pick up the kitchen knives and rolling pins to resist. Fortunately, the movements of the zombies were very stiff and slow. After a struggle with the zombies, they quickly chopped off the heads of the two zombies. With the sound of the heads hitting the ground, the zombies finally stopped attacking.
After several days of not sleeping well and just experiencing a struggle, Li Mengying finally couldn't hold on any longer. Exhausted, she fell backwards. Unfortunately, the back of her head hit the coffee table heavily, and with a muffled pain, she fainted.
When Li Mengying woke up again, a day and night had already passed, and the zombie corpse in the living room had been thrown into the hallway by Lin Xiaoxiao.
"Mengying, you finally woke up... You have no idea, you've been motionless for so long, I was afraid I'd be the only one left."
Just remembered everything, Li Mengying received a bear hug from Lin Xiaoxiao, who was sobbing and whimpering on Li Mengying's shoulder.
"I was so scared, but I managed to drag the bodies of the two zombies out into the hallway and carry you here all by myself. You didn't see it, but I was really something this time!"
Li Mengying helplessly smiled and patted Lin Xiaoxiao's back to comfort her, saying, "I understand, Xiaoxiao. Thank you. But you can let go of my hand now."
Lin Xiaoxiao quickly retracted her excited hands at the words, took a step back, wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, and said, "Mengying, I searched this house, and there are only a few packs of instant noodles and bread inside, which can last us for three or four days. Should we move somewhere else in a few days?"
Li Mengying slowly stood up and looked around under the moonlight. This was an old residential area, and the household appliances seemed quite old, with rust spots appearing on the doors. However, it was fortunate that the door here was not very strong; otherwise, Li Mengying and Lin Xiaoxiao wouldn't know how long it would take to pry it open!
Li Mengying walked to the master bedroom and looked out through the window on the balcony. Li Mengying could clearly see the densely packed dark figures downstairs. Were those... all zombies?
"Why are there so many zombies downstairs?" Li Mengying turned to look at Lin Xiaoxiao in confusion.
At this moment, Lin Xiaoxiao took out the bread that had already been opened and handed it to Li Mengying, saying, "I don't know either. There were only a few zombies here when we came two days ago, but suddenly there are a lot more today. I dare not go out to see, so I can only wait for you to wake up here."
Li Mengying immediately took the bread from Lin Xiaoxiao and began to eat eagerly. She hadn't eaten anything for over a day, and the feeling of hunger was really uncomfortable.
Li Mengying chewed on the bread while staring fixedly at the group of zombies outside the window, and asked incoherently, "Did the zombies start to increase only after I passed out?"
Lin Xiaoxiao thought for a moment, then went to the window and looked down at the zombies below. She said, "Yeah, there aren't many living people left here, just the two of us. And we've sprayed so much SIXgod to cover our scent, why are there still so many zombies coming towards us?"
Li Mengying quickly finished her bread and began observing the changes around the several buildings, pondering the problem. Suddenly, Li Mengying seemed to have figured something out and started walking towards the door.
Lin Xiaoxiao doesn't know what Li Mengying is up to, but she still followed her footsteps.
