Li Nan struggled to hold onto the Nylon Rope, and Brother Three finally made it safely to the opposite rooftop!
Suddenly, the tension on the Nylon Rope was released, causing Li Nan to lose his balance and fall backward!
As he leaned back, he collided with a Zombie. In an instant, Li Nan fired several bullets, aiming for the head regardless of what kind of creature it was!
Behind Li Nan, Zombies were already flooding in. Everywhere he looked was filled with Zombies, all rushing towards him!
His Submachine Gun had long run out of bullets. Li Nan swung it like a club, managing to take down a few Zombies, but there were simply too many of them for one person to handle.
Seeing the Nylon Rope wrapped around his waist, Li Nan couldn't help but chuckle, "Looks like I can only leave it to fate now!"
He tightened the Nylon Rope again, closed his eyes, and leaned back, jumping off the rooftop of the building!
The hundreds of Zombies that saw their prey about to escape became furious and jumped off the building after Li Nan. However, they weren't tied to any Nylon Rope, so they all fell freely, heads first!
Li Nan's falling body was suddenly caught by the Nylon Rope around his waist, which pulled him slightly upward before he swung back.
The people on the opposite building saw Li Nan jump and quickly grabbed the other end of the rope!
Fortunately, there were no issues with the rope's quality this time, and although Li Nan was hanging about ten meters below, he was relatively safe!
At this moment, Li Nan's head was spinning from the fall, and he had just slammed into the floor of the opposite building hard enough to nearly vomit blood!
Three or four men pulled together with effort and after a minute managed to haul Li Nan back up. As soon as his feet touched solid ground, his first reaction was to regurgitate everything he had eaten yesterday into acidic bile!
Standing before everyone was Jacket Man, who frowned and said, "You should at least look like a hero; all that buildup went to waste!"
Li Nan smiled wryly and replied, "I was just putting on a brave face; I won't take such risks next time!"
Jacket Man gave a thumbs up, saying, "Brother Li Nan is mighty and imposing! I truly admire you!"
Li Nan chuckled, "Brother Three, you're flattering me!"
The other brothers also gave Li Nan a thumbs up, exclaiming, "Brother Nan is mighty and imposing!"
Li Nan felt a bit of bitterness but was somewhat comforted, thinking to himself, "At least you all understand my intentions!"
Lin Hai helped Li Nan up, and after a moment of rest, his expression improved somewhat.
At this moment, Jacket Man turned to the Fatty beside him and said, "We've been tormented enough by those Zombies; it's time to show them some color!"
Fatty nodded in agreement and said, "Brother Three, just watch!"
Fatty set up his sniper rifle and aimed at the building below. With a single shot, flames erupted!
"What’s going on?" Li Nan exclaimed quietly, while Jacket Man explained, "When we went upstairs earlier, we already dismantled that van and spilled gasoline all over the building. We were just waiting for this moment. Now that most of the Zombies are attracted to that building, I'll set it ablaze and wish those Zombies would turn into roasted ducks!"
Li Nan clapped his hands in admiration, "So Brother Three had a backup plan all along!"
Jacket Man laughed, "In this line of work, if you don't have a backup plan, how many people do you think would have survived until now?"
Li Nan sighed in agreement.
With Fatty's gunshot, a tongue of fire first spread from downstairs, then the flames quickly engulfed the area. The entire floor of Zombies became like dumplings in a teapot—there was no escape!
As the fire spread, those Zombies who hadn’t fallen to their deaths were left waiting to be burned to ashes!
Jacket Man seized the opportunity and shouted, "We need to get down quickly! While the Zombie in that building is trapped by the fire, we should leave here fast. If more Zombies come looking for the fire, we won't be able to handle it!"
Li Nan noticed the overturned Liberation Truck below and felt a spark of inspiration. He turned to Jacket Man and said, "I have a way to escape!"
Jacket Man was surprised, "What do you mean?"
Li Nan fixed his gaze on the green Truck and smiled, "Just watch me!"
The group of eight hurried downstairs. Jacket Man and the others used their guns to clear the remaining Zombies from the street while Li Nan dashed toward the large Truck.
Jacket Man was puzzled by Li Nan's intentions, but he was utterly astonished by what happened next!
He saw Li Nan trying to lift the overturned Truck using his own strength, which seemed impossible!
Not only was Jacket Man shocked, but even Lin Hai was taken aback!
However, in an instant, their eyes widened as they witnessed Li Nan actually manage to flip the several-ton Truck back onto its wheels with sheer force!
Li Nan gritted his teeth; the wound on his chest that had already healed reopened from the exertion.
After moving his limbs slightly, although it had been quite strenuous, he finally managed to right the Truck. What mattered more to Li Nan was the food in the truck bed!
He asked Jacket Man, "Is there anyone who can check if that truck can still run?"
Jacket Man nodded, and the Long-Faced Man rushed over. After some inspection, he said, "If we change a tire, it will definitely work!"
Jacket Man patted Li Nan on the shoulder and said, "Looks like I underestimated you, brother!"
Li Nan smiled wryly and said, "It's just brute strength, nothing much of use. Even the Tyrannosaurus Rex went extinct back in the day. So having strength alone is useless in this apocalypse!"
Jacket Man chuckled, "Brother Li Nan is joking..."
At that moment, Long-Faced Man shouted, "The tire has been changed; we can go now!"
Hearing Long-Faced Man's call, Jacket Man quickly shifted the conversation and said, "Get in the car; we need to leave here as soon as possible!"
Long-Faced Man acted as the driver, while the remaining seven men stood in the truck bed. Once everyone was steady, Jacket Man tapped on the top of the truck to signal to start driving!
Although the Truck had rolled several times, its shape remained intact, and the main components were still operational. The speed was noticeably slower, but having a vehicle and food was already a good outcome.
As dusk fell, the battered liberation truck finally arrived at the camp.
The camp's guards saw a Truck approaching from afar and shone a spotlight on it. Once they confirmed it was their people, they opened the gates wide!
The Truck drove into the camp, and all the men jumped down from the vehicle to unload supplies.
Just as Li Nan was about to leave, Liu Long and Gao Hu suddenly bumped into him!
Liu Long had spotted Third Brother's Truck from a distance and hurried over. However, upon seeing the battered liberation truck, he immediately asked, "Third Brother, what happened?"
Jacket Man sighed and said, "Big Brother, don't mention it. We almost lost our lives for this truckload of food!"
Liu Long clicked his tongue and remarked, "With Third Brother's skills, how could he easily encounter danger?"
Jacket Man pulled Li Nan over and said, "If it weren't for this brother's help, I would have really been done for this time!"
Liu Long was astonished to see Li Nan, "Brother Li Nan, how did you end up with my Third Brother?"
Li Nan spread his hands, indicating it was all fate, while the Jacket Man joked, "We encountered a group of Zombies attacking us on the way. If it weren't for this brother's help, it would have been truly unpredictable!"
The Jacket Man didn't mention Li Nan's robbery attempt; he just briefly explained the situation. Liu Long smiled at Li Nan and said, "I knew my brother was capable; indeed, we are fortunate to have been saved by you for my Third Brother..."
Before Liu Long could finish his sentence, Gao Hu leaned in and said with a smile, "I truly admire Brother Li Nan's skills. Since my three brothers are gathered tonight, why not drink another cup to celebrate Third Brother's good fortune and survival!"
Upon hearing this, Li Nan immediately waved his hand and said, "Today has been too dangerous; let me rest for a bit first!"
Seeing that Li Nan wasn't joking, Gao Hu laughed and replied, "Then we'll do it another day!"
In his heart, Li Nan was already cursing, "Drink? No way! I almost drank myself to death yesterday!"
The Jacket Man noticed that his subordinates had unloaded half a cart of food and said, "Let's deliver the food for Big Brother Second Brother first; the rest will be split between me and Brother Li Nan!"
Li Nan raised his hand and said, "Thank you, Brother Three!"
The Jacket Man smiled and said, "Logically speaking, this cart of food was brought back because of you. However, my subordinates need to eat too, so it's fair that Brother Li Nan shares half of it with us!" He then turned to his subordinates and shouted, "You all should thank Brother Li Nan!"
"Thank you, Brother Nan!" Long-Faced Man and the others shouted in unison. Li Nan smiled back and replied, "It's Brother Three who gave me face; thank you, Brother Three!"
Liu Long and Gao Hu observed closely; it seemed that Li Nan had developed quite a friendship with Third Brother!
The Jacket Man instructed his subordinates to deliver half of the food into Li Nan's Small Buildings before turning to Liu Long and Gao Hu. He said, "I'll head back to sleep now; I'll come visit you two brothers tomorrow!"
"Rest well, Third Brother!" Liu Long and Gao Hu both said in unison before turning back to their own quarters.
On the road, Liu Long asked the rat beside him, "How is that woman doing?"
The rat nodded, "Li Nan has already slept with her, and last night, he also slept with the woman Gao Xue sent over!"
Liu Long clicked his tongue, "Second Brother really is generous; that kid got lucky!"
The rat changed the subject, "But Li Nan is sleeping with two women at the same time; I wonder what his intentions are?"
Liu Long laughed, "He's taking a neutral approach; playing with two women means he won't offend either. But now Third Brother has also gotten involved, making things complicated!"
The rat nodded, "Trying to win that person over isn't an easy task!"
As they spoke, Liu Long had already returned to his residence, where a seductive woman had long been waiting for him. She gasped, "Brother Long, why did you take so long to come back? I missed you so much!"
Liu Long pushed the woman down onto the ground, indifferent to her. The woman quickly realized Liu Long's mood was off and left in a huff.
At that moment, the rat had a sudden idea and said, "I have a plan. Since Li Nan isn't making any progress, perhaps we can approach someone else; it might yield better results!"
A glimmer of excitement appeared on Liu Long's face. "Good! Let's go with your idea!"
