After Li Nan consecutively shot the heads of six Zombies, he finally felt a sense of relief. Initially, he intended to confront the six Zombies in the cramped space of the lounge, but the situation developed unexpectedly smoothly, allowing Li Nan to find a Baseball Bat!
He had no idea whose Baseball Bat it was or why it was left in the lounge, and Li Nan was too lazy to ponder such things. Since fate had thrown him into a hospital overrun by Zombies, it was only reasonable for it to leave him something that could save his life. Li Nan had come to terms with his situation, but for the sake of the remaining survivors, he had to persevere!
At this moment, the wound on his arm throbbed faintly, and as Li Nan looked down, he realized that the injury on his forearm had exposed bone. This was no minor injury; fortunately, it had missed some blood vessels. Although the wound was deep, it hadn’t reached any vital areas!
Li Nan frowned. "Is this heaven trying to ensure I don’t get infected by Zombies quickly enough? It wants to give me another harsh blow!"
Li Nan couldn’t help but chuckle. Right now, he really wanted to lie down in this lounge and take a good nap, but he couldn’t. Liu Ziming downstairs was still waiting for him, so he couldn’t afford to pause for even a moment!
After briefly tending to the wound on his right arm, Li Nan pushed aside the two sofas and quietly stepped out.
Clearly, all the Zombies on the eighth floor had been eliminated, so there shouldn’t be any danger now. However, the password-locked door to the blood bank remained a significant challenge.
Holding the Baseball Bat, Li Nan exited the lounge and checked the six Zombies lying at the door but found nothing useful.
The password door to the blood bank definitely required a code to open, and since nearly everyone in the hospital had turned into Zombies, who would still know the password?
Moreover, the complexity of the situation exceeded Li Nan's expectations. What was that gunfire he heard earlier? What was happening with Zhang Li and the others? All of this needed an explanation!
Li Nan struggled internally; he needed to determine whether the blood bank door could be opened. If there was no hope of opening it, he would have to settle for finding Zhang Li and others or heading downstairs directly.
Li Nan quickly approached the location of the blood bank door. There were still several Zombie corpses around; perhaps he could discover some useful clues. However, much to his disappointment, none of these Zombies were from Jiangbei Medical System; they were merely hospital patients. Thus, there was no hope of finding anything that could unlock the blood bank door.
Li Nan originally hoped that among these Zombies, there would be one or two who were staff members of the blood bank, and that one of them might have written the password to the blood bank's door on their body! Li Nan knew that this possibility was extremely slim, almost like buying a lottery ticket!
The truth is that heaven did not show mercy to Li Nan; he found nothing useful or valuable!
Li Nan sat under the blood bank's door, feeling disheartened. "Have I done all this just to be unable to save Liu Ziming?"
With a sigh, Li Nan felt a suffocating despair enveloping his heart. When he learned that he had been infected by a Zombie, he was filled with despair, feeling as if the entire world had turned dark. Fortunately, Zhang Li, Han Guang, and others accepted him in time, which is why he now had the opportunity to do something for others. However, contrary to his hopes, Liu Ziming ultimately could not overcome this hurdle!
If despair experienced in life were to happen a second time, then that person's life would undoubtedly be a tragedy. Li Nan recalled a saying: "A tragedy is showing people the destruction of something valuable!" How true this statement is! Li Nan could already foresee the final outcome for their group: either they would all die at the hands of Zombies or perish under the military's destruction plan. In any case, they would find it impossible to escape.
Li Nan had begun to feel pessimistic. From Liu Ziming's tragedy, he associated it with everyone's tragedy. When his thoughts finally turned to himself, he angrily crushed the Zombie corpses before him. He hated these inhuman creatures; if they hadn't suddenly appeared, his life might have been beautiful. He could have continued working quietly at Jiangbei Hospital and perhaps even blossomed into a relationship with Gao Xue. What a satisfying life it could have been—ruined by these beasts!
Li Nan's hatred would not be quelled even if he turned all the Zombies into mush. Now, he had no mood to think about what was happening upstairs; all he wanted was for it to be over—death would be better than enduring this torment!
With his head bowed, a surge of anger welled up in Li Nan's chest. However, since all the Zombies were already smashed into pulp, there was nothing left for him to unleash his fury upon. His gaze fell upon the Baseball Bat in his hand.
At this moment, Li Nan no longer cared about Liu Ziming or Mo Xiaohui; he was already in despair. He wanted to use the Baseball Bat in his hand to end his own life so that he wouldn't have to suffer any longer!
Li Nan gently raised the Baseball Bat and swung it towards his head in silence; he wanted to end everything and escape this dark world!
A gust of wind blew past as the Baseball Bat approached Li Nan's ear when suddenly a voice came from behind him!
Li Nan was startled by the sudden sound and jumped. "Could there still be Zombies?"
As Li Nan pondered, he couldn't help but laugh, "Since I'm going to die anyway, does it matter if it's a Zombie?"
Li Nan didn't pay much attention to the sounds behind him, but the Baseball Bat in his hand suddenly came to a halt. "Something's not right; the blood bank door is right behind me, how could there be any noise?"
He turned around, and to his astonishment, the blood bank door was slowly opening by itself.
With a hissing sound, the door began to slide apart from the middle, and a brilliant light shone from behind it, revealing a figure standing there.
Li Nan was already shocked; it was strange enough that the blood bank door had opened, but now there was actually a figure standing behind it. How terrifying could this get!
Thinking quickly, Li Nan felt that this situation could be explained; it must be the figure behind the door that opened this secret entrance!
Li Nan's previously gloomy expression suddenly cleared up; he seemed to see hope again, a lifeline in Liu Ziming!
"Who are you?" Li Nan didn't move but cautiously asked in front of the door.
Now Li Nan could confirm that the figure behind the door was definitely not a Zombie and posed no threat to him. Perhaps he was just someone who had taken refuge in the blood bank during the Zombie crisis; he was like a second Mo Xiaohui.
