A rope hung down along the wall.
One end of the rope was tied to the Communication Tower, and the seventeen-year-old High School Student had a distressed expression, clearly reluctant to go down and take the risk, but there was no choice.
This was the will of everyone else.
Guo Dalong, with his injured right arm, was the most aggressive, directly pushing him to go down, his eyes fierce, making one suspect that if the high school student didn't go down, he would kick him off himself!
Guo Dalong was certainly eager because blood was continuously flowing from his right upper arm. Although it was simply bandaged with clothing, the bleeding wouldn't stop at all. Continuing like this wasn't a solution; he would bleed to death sooner or later. He urgently wanted to leave this place and find somewhere to bandage it, even if it meant finding a first aid kit to do it himself.
"I-I'm Xu Lixing," the high school student stammered. He was indeed very weak and didn't dare to resist against Guo Dalong's relentless pressure. Luo Jindou was beside him persuading him, saying this was an action to save everyone, that if he could bring up gasoline, he would earn everyone's respect and become a hero in their eyes, just like Shen Yuan.
Hero...
Often, heroes meet the most tragic ends!
Shen Yuan scoffed at this notion, while Xu Lixing's face flushed with excitement at being called a hero, as if he truly were one.
Shen Yuan glanced at Luo Jindou.
Becoming a company president was indeed not easy. In such a short time, he had figured out everyone's character traits and trapped Xu Lixing with the word "hero," making the weak boy surprisingly strong as he quietly began to climb down the rope.
Everyone held their breath, watching from behind the parapet.
Xu Lixing wasn't foolish; he moved stealthily and soon approached a motorcycle.
That was Guo Dalong's motorcycle. Under Luo Jindou's persuasion, Guo Dalong handed the keys to Xu Lixing.
Xu Lixing took out a plastic bag and a long tube, which he had obtained from Shen Yuan.
Following Luo Jindou's instructions, he placed one end of the tube into the gas tank and then put the other end in his mouth to suck. When the fuel was about to flow into his mouth, he lowered that end, allowing the fuel to naturally flow into the plastic bag.
The principle of siphoning is quite simple.
However, at such a moment, not many people would think of this; Luo Jindou's mental fortitude was indeed impressive.
Time passed second by second.
The tube was very thin, and the flow rate of the gasoline was slow. Coupled with everyone's tension, it felt like time was dragging on.
Finally, after about five minutes, the large plastic bag was filled, holding at least ten liters.
Xu Lixing tied up the plastic bag and then quietly moved it to the wall, gripping the rope tightly with both hands.
"Pull him up!" Luo Jindou whispered.
He leaned in first and firmly grasped the rope.
Then it was Guo Dalong.
Chen Letian did not dare to approach, unwilling to get close to Guo Dalong.
Luo Jindou and Guo Dalong pulled the rope together.
Everyone's hearts were in their throats.
Suddenly, a rooster crowed from a distance.
Shen Yuan looked in the direction of the sound, startled.
A chicken flapped its wings and flew into the yard!
It was a nearly one-meter-tall Mutated Chicken, missing quite a bit of feathers, looking very imposing. Its sharp beak and the patches of red and white on its feathers made it look like a hero returning from the battlefield.
It was that Mutated Hen!
The Mutated Hen spotted Xu Lixing hanging on the wall at a glance, let out a cry, and then flapped its wings and flew over!
"Quick! Pull the rope!" Luo Jindou also saw the Mutated Hen and shouted urgently, pulling the rope with all his might, sweating profusely.
Chen Letian rushed over to help as well.
Clearly, they all recognized that Mutated Hen and knew how formidable it was!
"I'm afraid... it's too late!" Shen Yuan felt a chill in his heart.
The Mutated Hen was fast, able to flap its wings and reach him in just a few seconds. Xu Lixing was still seven or eight meters away from the rooftop, and there was no way he could make it in time.
Moreover!
That Mutated Hen could fly quite high, estimated to be around ten meters. Who could guarantee that it wouldn't be able to reach him?
Shen Yuan silently took out the Revolver from his pocket.
The bullets were already loaded, with four shots remaining.
The Mutated Hen was clearly much stronger than the Mutant Mouse; even a Heavy Motorcycle at full throttle couldn't take it down. Four bullets might not be enough to kill it. Additionally, Shen Yuan's aim might not be good enough to hit the Mutated Hen.
Unfortunately, this handgun couldn't be activated...
And even if it could be activated, there wouldn't be enough time!
Shen Yuan raised the gun and aimed at the Mutated Hen.
A few seconds later, Xu Lixing was still two or three meters away from the rooftop, while the Mutated Hen was already flying towards him.
It flapped its wings and soared to a height of about fourteen or fifteen meters, with its two chicken claws reaching out towards Xu Lixing!
"Ahhh!"
Among the two surviving women, one turned pale and screamed loudly, while Xu Lixing felt weak all over. Her hand slipped, and she fell about a meter, barely avoiding the Mutated Hen.
At that moment.
"Bang!"
"Bang bang!"
Three gunshots rang out in succession, and all three bullets hit the Mutated Hen.
One bullet struck its wing, while the other two hit its back!
The Mutated Hen cried out in pain and fell to the ground.
However...
It didn't die!
Immediately after, it got back up from the ground and flapped its wings to fly up.
"Quick, shoot! Shoot!"
"Boss, shoot! Kill it!"
"Shen Brother, shoot!"
Amidst the screams and shouts, Shen Yuan stuffed the handgun into his jacket pocket and gripped the Shovel tightly.
He didn't stand next to the parapet but took two steps back to prepare for action.
The Mutated Hen held a grudge; this time, it didn't go after Xu Lixing but instead flapped its wings and flew directly to the rooftop platform, charging towards Shen Yuan.
In a moment of life and death!
Shen Yuan exerted all his strength and swung the Shovel at the Mutated Hen!
Crack!
With a sharp sound, the edge of the Shovel struck the Mutated Hen's neck.
Blood splattered everywhere!
The Mutated Hen's head was severed, hanging in the air for several seconds before finally dropping to the ground.
Although that Mutated Hen was headless, it was not yet dead and continued to flail on the spot.
Others stepped back, while Luo Jindou let go and ran to the Communication Base Station. However, Chen Letian and Guo Dalong did not release their grip, firmly holding onto Xu Lixing to prevent him from falling to his death.
Shen Yuan did not retreat.
Instead, he moved forward!
Having severed at least a dozen Zombie arms earlier, the Shovel had become extremely sharp. After just decapitating the Mutated Hen, he felt a warm current flowing into his body, more than he had ever experienced before!
In an instant!
His strength recovered significantly, and he felt incredibly comfortable all over. He gripped the Shovel tightly and began to chop at the Mutated Hen furiously, strike after strike.
At that moment, A Hu also ran over.
Chi Qinghua was placed inside the Communication Base Station, keeping watch outside the door.
When Shen Yuan injured Guo Dalong earlier, A Hu had wanted to attack Guo Dalong, but Shen Yuan shook his head at him, as it was unnecessary.
Now that the Mutated Hen was still struggling, A Hu charged in and jumped onto the Mutated Hen to bite it.
It wasn't until the Mutated Hen was covered in wounds and stopped moving that Shen Yuan let out a sigh of relief, and A Hu also came to a halt.
