Running through a horde of Zombies was incredibly difficult!
Li Nan had all the filth washed off him, leaving him completely vulnerable. Fortunately, at the most critical moment, Han Guang rushed over to rescue Li Nan.
However, Li Nan felt a bit like a lost cause because as soon as he took a step, he slipped and fell to the ground in a disheveled heap.
Han Guang watched this unfold and couldn't help but shake his head. The Fire Axe in his hand swung wildly, showing no mercy as he exerted all his strength to chop down.
Unfortunately, the Zombies showed no respect; if they had any sense of fear, they would have at least acknowledged Han Guang's desperate efforts. But these Zombies were unpredictable; the harder Han Guang struck, the more ferociously they attacked!
After dozens of swings, Han Guang felt utterly exhausted, and the Fire Axe felt like a burden he could no longer wield.
Li Nan lay on the ground, filled with regret: "Why can't you be more reliable? It's one thing to die yourself, but now you're dragging others down with you!"
Han Guang swung the Fire Axe one last time, knocking over two pursuing Zombies. He didn't linger and immediately used his last bit of strength to run toward the ventilation shaft.
Seeing Han Guang, who had been behind him but was now ahead, Li Nan felt a surge of anger. A person who couldn't seize an opportunity would never succeed!
As Han Guang dashed past Li Nan, he reached down and grabbed Li Nan's arm, urging him to run. "If we don't hurry, there will really be no chance left!"
Li Nan felt a warmth in his heart. "What a good person! But... ouch... my arm hurts."
With Han Guang pulling him up, Li Nan struggled to keep pace with him as they ran, while the horde of Zombies closed in even tighter behind them.
Li Nan couldn't shake off the nagging thought: "Could it be that this time I'm really going to die?"
Han Guang moved swiftly, pulling out a handgun from his chest without looking back and fired randomly.
At this moment, Li Nan also remembered that Han Guang had given him a self-defense gun, called the M1911. Without thinking too much, Li Nan immediately searched his body with his left hand. "Ah! It's in my back pocket!"
Li Nan pulled out the M1911 from his back pocket without looking back and randomly fired a few shots. Regardless of whether he hit the Zombie or not, Li Nan felt a tingling sensation in his palm.
At this time, another person appeared in front of Li Nan and Han Guang, and it was Zhang Li.
Zhang Li was holding a Thompson Submachine Gun and was fiercely spraying bullets at the Zombies relentlessly pursuing Li Nan and Han Guang from behind.
"Hurry up! This ammunition won't last long!" Zhang Li shouted angrily, while Li Nan felt a glimmer of hope and ran even faster.
Logically speaking, the Zombies in the Control Room had very high combat power and exceptional speed. How could they not catch up to Li Nan and Han Guang? In fact, during the power outage, the Control Room had formed a small greenhouse effect, causing the temperature to rise sharply. After the power was restored, the temperature dropped back to normal. The recent drenching had further lowered the temperature to just over ten degrees. Otherwise, even if Li Nan were a cat with nine lives, he wouldn't have survived!
Although the drop in temperature reduced the combat effectiveness of the Zombies, this group of Walking Dead should not be underestimated. Even with Zhang Li wielding a Submachine Gun, he still felt intimidated facing these Zombies.
After Zhang Li took down a row of Zombies in front, the remaining Zombies slowed down as well. Thus, Li Nan and Han Guang managed to rush to the ventilation shaft.
"Quickly get up!" Zhang Li shouted loudly.
Faced with a height of over four meters, Li Nan felt powerless. It had been quite difficult for him to come down from above before; now climbing up seemed almost impossible.
Before Li Nan could continue pondering, Han Guang had already pushed him up with all his strength. Liu Ziming had extended a hand from inside the ventilation duct and caught Li Nan's arm, pulling him up effortlessly.
Using both hands and feet, Li Nan finally climbed up and squeezed himself into the ventilation duct, letting out a long sigh of relief.
Han Guang's physical abilities were impressive as well; just moments ago he had been using all his strength to fight off Zombies. Now he was able to dash like the wind. With remarkable jumping ability, he leaped straight up from the ground and reached over three meters high. Coupled with his long limbs, he was also caught by Liu Ziming. In no time, both Li Nan and Han Guang were safe.
Zhang Li stood at the base of the wall, using his Submachine Gun to fend off the approaching horde of Zombies.
With a loud "bang," the gun in Zhang Li's hand jammed. He knew that he had run out of bullets, so he casually tossed the gun aside and drew out a Triangular Bayonet from behind him, stabbing fiercely at the few Zombies that were charging in the front.
However, the Bayonet was primarily designed for stabbing and prying, making it unsuitable for slashing, which made Zhang Li appear to be struggling.
Just as Zhang Li was about to be overwhelmed by the Zombies, Li Nan spoke up to the anxious crowd, "I have a way to save Captain Zhang Li!"
Liu Ziming asked, "What is it? Hurry up and tell us!"
Li Nan replied, "Homemade Molotov cocktails!"
Just as he finished speaking, at the moment when Zhang Li was feeling weak, two rubber gloves were suddenly thrown from the ventilation duct. The Zombies paid no attention to this and immediately lunged to bite Zhang Li.
Suddenly, several gunshots struck those two rubber gloves, igniting them instantly. The Zombies caught in the flames were quickly engulfed in fire, and sensing something was amiss, the remaining Zombies hesitated.
Li Nan continued shouting from the ventilation duct, "Throw more! We need to intimidate that group of Zombies to buy time for Captain Zhang Li!"
Three more rubber gloves were thrown into the Zombie horde, causing chaos to erupt.
At this moment, Li Nan shouted to Zhang Li, "Hurry! Get up here!"
Seeing that the Zombies had halted their advance, Zhang Li realized there was an opportunity. He quickly turned around and climbed into the ventilation shaft.
Zhang Li's skills were no less than Han Guang's; he leaped up and was caught by hands from above before he crawled into the ventilation duct.
Eleven people returned to the ventilation duct unscathed, which was truly uplifting.
Li Nan felt a lingering fear, and after slowly calming down, he said to Han Guang and Zhang Li, "I am grateful for your help; I, Li Nan, have learned my lesson!"
Han Guang nonchalantly replied, "I just felt you were still useful to our group, so I wouldn't let you die!"
Zhang Li simply stated, "You came down with me, so it's only natural that I saved you. However, your physical fitness really needs improvement. You must not hold us back again. Next time, I absolutely won't let anyone take risks to save you!"
Li Nan smiled wryly and said, "I will definitely accept this lesson with humility. If I get another chance, I will become a muscular fitness guy! I need to strengthen my physical training!"
Although Zhang Li was strict, Li Nan found his sincerity undeniable; while Han Guang cared about appearances, he was genuinely warm-hearted at his core.
In the ventilation duct, Li Nan crawled at the back while Han Guang was in the second-to-last position.
Li Nan asked, "Why did the Control Room suddenly catch fire? Otherwise, we wouldn't be in such a predicament."
Han Guang shook his head. "I don't know. The fire started from the Distribution Station; it wasn't very intense, but it was enough to trigger the smoke detection and fire suppression system!"
Li Nan reluctantly said, "A fire wouldn't just start for no reason; there must be some cause behind it."
Han Guang replied, "When you were treating your wound, didn't you use a piece of burning cloth? Maybe that thing caught fire later!"
Li Nan firmly denied it. "Impossible! I even stepped on that piece of cloth several times; how could it have ignited? Wait! I've thought of something!"
Han Guang looked puzzled. "What did you think of?"
Li Nan confidently said, "Wasn't the Fire Axe you were holding dragging on the ground? Do you know what the surface of the Control Room is like? It's marble, and it easily sparks when it encounters a hard object. It must have been the sparks you created that ignited that piece of cloth!"
Han Guang didn't respond but crawled much faster.
Li Nan followed behind, shouting, "It's your fault! Don't run away!"
Han Guang suddenly turned around, his expression serious, which made Li Nan tense up.
Noticing the atmosphere was a bit off, Li Nan didn't want to dwell on this unresolved issue and asked Han Guang, "What time is it now?"
Han Guang replied, "It's one fifty in the morning; it'll be two soon!"
Li Nan pondered over the current time, feeling something was amiss, but he couldn't pinpoint what it was.
Seeing that Li Nan had fallen into thought again, Han Guang turned back and continued crawling.
Li Nan followed closely behind Han Guang, secretly contemplating, "It's almost two in the morning...”
"Maybe I'm just feeling anxious. What does the time matter anyway? No one is coming to rescue us! As long as we aren't treated as sacrificial pawns for the Zombie by the higher-ups, that's all that matters," Li Nan thought to himself and unconsciously quickened his pace.
