57: Chapter 36 Exemption and Fall (Part 2)
“Let’s go back.
Treat me to a meal,” Tang Zheng didn’t care about these things, and he would happily tell everyone the secrets of the Seed if others hadn’t let him down.
Even now, he was still somewhat conflicted because the Seed’s abilities might save a life at a critical moment.
“What are you two whispering about?
Are you hiding something from us?” Pang Meiqin looked suspiciously at Tang Zheng and Qin Yan, her eyes sweeping back and forth over their faces.
Unfortunately, Tang Zheng still had his usual cold expression, and Qin Yan smiled and said nothing.
Ever since she witnessed the death of the high school student and Hu Qiong, she felt that she had changed a lot.
“Ah, everyone’s here?
Ms.
Pang Meiqin, what are we having for lunch today?” Lin Weiguo also came out of his room, gave Tang Zheng a reassuring look, and changed the subject.
“What else can we have besides beef in the fridge?
We have some seafood, but I don’t know how to prepare it.” Whenever it came to food Pang Meiqin got frustrated.
“We haven’t had vegetables or fruits for several days.
These times are like a nightmare in my life.”
“How are the zombies?” Lin Weiguo ignored Pang Meiqin’s complaints and walked to the window, opening a small gap in the curtain for a peek.
“Same as usual.” Observing the evolution of zombies every day had become Tang Zheng’s routine.
“No, that’s not right, Tang, they seem to be becoming more active, look, several more are running towards the Oasis Hotel.” There was a tone of puzzlement in Lin’s voice.
He trusted Tang Zheng’s observations and judgements, but he couldn’t explain what was happening in front of him.
“What?” Hearing Lin’s words, Tang Zheng jumped up from the sofa, picked up the telescope they’d got from a Nazi zombie lying on the tea table, and rushed to the window.
“Let me see.”
“See, there is a problem, right?
Look over there, a few more have come out.”
Without Lin Weiguo mentioning it, Tang Zheng had already noticed.
Some of the zombies in the horde had clearly evolved.
They were no longer wandering aimlessly, but began to run towards the nearby buildings.
Even though their bodies were still decaying, these creatures were faster and more agile.
Some could even leap over barriers more than a meter high, cling to walls like geckos, and climb upwards.
Through the telescope, Tang Zheng could clearly see these monsters’ hands evolve into foot-long, bone-like sharp claws that could break through the cement slabs easily.
“It seems like they have evolved, young Tang, give me the telescope.” Lin Weiguo’s words scared everyone.
The flight attendants immediately ran to the window and looked out.
“Indeed, some ordinary zombies started evolving into special infected, and the number of Hunter Zombies and Tank Zombies has also increased.” Tang studied the streets outside, his brow furrowing deeply as if to pin a crab.
“What I worry about the most is that a Shadow Barbie will run into the Oasis Hotel, those things are really unpreventable.”
“Tang, they can actually climb upstairs now.
Doesn’t that mean our rope-ladder strategy is over?” Seeing a dozen zombies climbing the walls of the hotel outside and even crawling in from the balcony, Pang Meiqin was terrified and shocked.
“What should we do in three days?
Do we just withstand the Nazi zombies when they come?”
“I’m afraid we can’t even hold out for three days, this hotel will be filled with various zombies.” Qin Yan looked grave, she didn’t think much of the current situation.
“Then what are we waiting for?
Let’s take advantage of the fact that the number of zombies is still small, and clean them up.
Oh, and call Zhao Jingye and the others back, let’s all do it together, work overtime.” Pang Meiqin looked frightened and turned to leave, but immediately stopped because nobody moved.
Zhou Zhou and Bai Guo’s gazes fell on Tang Zheng’s face, obviously waiting for his decision.
“I’m afraid that won’t work.
Looking at the speed and quantity of zombies entering the hotel, we can’t clean up at all.
Besides, when the Nazi zombies attack, these zombies won’t stop.
That means we’ll face two dangers at the same time.
Especially those ones clinging to the outside wall of the hotel, they will definitely not relent after finding humans.
Then, sandwiched between the Nazi zombies, it would be strange if we didn’t die.” Tang Zheng shook his head, vetoing the proposal.
“Besides, we don’t have enough energy to spend three days.
What about the night?
Zombies won’t get tired, they never rest.”
Everyone fell silent.
They knew that the situation was even more brutal than what Tang Zheng had described.
In just a few words, more than sixty zombies had already entered the Oasis Hotel.
“Tang, use your backup plan.
Don’t be indecisive.
It’s time to abandon the hotel.
It’s no longer a safe hideout.” When Qin Yan finished saying this, the few flight attendants present all looked at Tang Zheng with a sense of relief.
They were glad that the group leader had earlier arranged an escape plan, otherwise, they would be at a loss now.
“Then why are we waiting?
Let’s call Cheng Chen and the others to come back, and set off quickly.” Pang Meiqin didn’t want to stay in this zombie-surrounded place any longer.
“It’s not as simple as you think.
Once we go out, who knows how much danger we’ll face?
Los Angeles is not your backyard.
No one of us is familiar with the routes, we only have a map…” Of course, Tang Zheng wouldn’t voice out these difficulties.
He has to give confidence to his group members.
What he needs to do now is to weigh the pros and cons and choose the safest plan.
“Contact Zhao Jingye, tell them to come back immediately, bring their belongings, and gather in the security room on the second floor.
You guys shouldn’t also be idle, go pack up.”
Pang Meiqin and Bai Guo responded and started to take action immediately.
In less than thirty seconds, they came out with big and small bags, obviously ready to take off.
“We are ready to leave at any time.” Pang Meiqin looked pleased, wanting to show off her good qualities.
Unfortunately, she didn’t receive any praise from Tang Zheng.
“Are you asking to die?
Carrying all that stuff, throw away what is not needed.” Seeing Pang Meiqin and Zhou Zhou somewhat unwilling, Tang Zheng immediately raised his voice.
“If you can run faster than the Hunter Zombies, I don’t mind if you carry the whole hotel.”
The three flight attendants looked embarrassed.
Bai Guo was the most obedient.
She immediately left her travel bag.
“Tang, Zhao Jingye’s walkie-talkie is off, and we can’t get in touch.” Qin Yan jumped anxiously.
“What the hell is that bastard doing?
Should we send someone to notify them?”
“They probably feared us knowing the secret of the safe, so they turned off the walkie-talkie.
Right now, they might be joyfully dividing the spoils.” Zhou Zhou greatly disliked Zhao Jingye and took every chance to discredit him.
However, what she said was a possibility.
