Chapter 31: Chaos
Resettlement site, District 2.
A strong man burst into the tent with a cry, staggered two steps, fell to the ground, and kept twitching.
One side of the tent was bulged and eventually torn open. Two zombies rushed out, roaring and pounced on the nearby crowd.
District Thirteen.
The woman holding the baby stumbled towards the headquarters building. Behind her, there was a zombie chasing after her.
Judging from the speed of the two, it was only a matter of time before they were caught up, but no one would help the mother and son at this moment.
District 26.
Several tents were set on fire, and cries and screams were heard one after another.
In panic, some citizens huddled under their quilts, praying that the zombies would not discover them.
But there were more citizens who chose to take their fate into their own hands and took advantage of the chaos to escape from their tents.
Those who had any brains were running towards the direction of the military camp. There were also many citizens who were frightened by the sudden turn of events and were scurrying around in the resettlement site like headless flies, which in turn caused even greater chaos.
Chaos spreads rapidly like a plague.
The population density in the resettlement site is too high. This hidden danger has not gone unnoticed, but unfortunately there is no way to solve it in a short time.
So when zombies appeared at the settlement site, the situation became out of control.
Of course, amidst all the panic, there was still a group of people who remained calm.
To be precise, the chaos in the settlement was deliberately created by some of these people.
"Dongdongtadong~dongdong~dongdongtadong~bang! Bang! Bang!"
The young man in a gray hooded sweatshirt hummed a tune and walked towards the scientific research center with his head shaking.
That leisurely look didn't look like he was in the same time and space at all compared to the crowd of people running around in panic.
A young man with an afro who dyed his hair in various colors squatted on the roof of the tent, placed his palms across his forehead and looked around.
To be honest, most people stretched out their hands to protect themselves from the sun. However, it was late at night, and he was wearing a formal suit, and there was a nondescript smell all over his body.
Three men in black suits gathered together. It is worth mentioning that it was late at night and they still wore sunglasses, which made them look particularly weird.
One of the bald men said: "Boss, something's not right. Didn't we just arrest three infected people? Looking at this movement, I'm afraid there are infected people in seven or eight places."
"Hey, isn't it obvious that a lot of guys want to go with us?" The boss curled his lips: "Forget it, it doesn't matter, it's just to attract the attention of the army, the more chaotic the better."
The bald man was a little panicked: "No, boss, I'm worried that even the army won't be able to control the situation by then. There are tens of thousands of people gathered in this military base."
…
Research center building.
"What's going on outside?"
Zhou Zongming frowned and quickly walked to the window to check the situation.
After all, it was already late at night and the visibility was not high. At most, he could judge that the settlement site was in chaos.
I really don’t know exactly what happened.
His confused situation didn't last long, as two phone rings rang one after another.
Zhou Zongming and the captain of the quick reaction force looked at each other and instantly realized that something was wrong.
The two of them answered the phone at the same time, and listening to the information transmitted from the other end of the phone, Zhou Zongming's face became extremely ugly. He walked quickly to the isolation door, punched it with a fist, and said in an extremely cold tone: "Who did this?!"
His intuition told him that Agu must know the reason and even be connected with this chaos.
However, Agu just smiled jokingly and was too lazy to reply.
Even if they don't show it obviously, in fact, most of the Death Fighters subconsciously have a psychological sense of superiority towards the "natives", and the difference is just a profound degree.
The situation was urgent. Seeing that Agu had made it clear that he had no intention of cooperation, Zhou Zongming naturally would not hang himself on a tree, but turned around and began to issue orders to the members of the rapid reaction force.
"He is very skilled. Leave four people here to guard him. Once he comes out of the isolation room, he will be killed on the spot without reporting.
Lao Yang, please quickly lead your men to block the passages between various areas of the resettlement site. If necessary..."
Zhou Zongming paused for a while before continuing: "If necessary, it is allowed to open fire on citizens who force their way in. You must hold on until the second and third companies enter to clean up the infected."
The resettlement site is divided into 40 districts, and nearly 50,000 people gather there.
Although zombies have appeared in eight districts, the situation has not yet reached its worst point.
Zhou Zongming knew very well that once he issued this order, it meant that in areas where zombies appeared, the citizens inside could only wish for themselves.
There is nothing that can be done about it. It is clear at a glance which one is more important than 50,000 people or several thousand people.
If it is cut off, it must be cut off, and no woman's kindness is allowed. Otherwise, let alone those districts, there is no way to save the other thirty or so districts.
Soon, except for the four team members who stayed in the laboratory to guard Agu, all members of the rapid response force withdrew from the scientific research center.
Seeing that everyone had almost left, Lu Bai, who had remained silent the whole time, stood up and walked to the window.
"Ke Jianghao shouldn't be your real name, right?"
Zhou Zongming glanced at Lu Bai. He actually still had some doubts and wanted to get answers from Lu Bai. Unfortunately, the timing was unlucky and he needed to go to the scene to direct.
"I'll settle the score with you after it's over. It's already messy enough. Just stay here and don't cause any more trouble for me."
He didn't ask anyone to control Lu Bai, he left in a hurry after leaving these words.
The huge laboratory became quiet again.
Lu Bai silently looked at the scene outside the window for a while, let out a long breath, turned to Agu in the isolation room and said: "I guess these four people can't stop you, but it doesn't matter, you can try it and see if you can Escape."
His friendly smile, in the current scene, actually sent chills down people's spines.
The four remaining team members were all a little dissatisfied when they heard Lu Bai's statement, which clearly looked down upon them.
But before they could refute, they were shocked to see Lu Bai holding the window eaves with one hand, turning over and jumping out easily.
Witnessing this scene with their own eyes, the four team members stood on the ground and looked at each other.
One of the team members' eyes nearly popped out: "This...is this the fifth floor, right?"
Bang!
Lu Bai jumped from the fifth floor and hit the ground hard, stirring up a large amount of smoke and dust.
With the blessing of [Violent Blood], he didn't even need to roll to remove the impact.
"I can't owe any more favors. Even though I have an idea, it's too difficult to repay."
He stood up and straightened his back, sighing with a hint of self-deprecation.
Immediately, his expression condensed, he stepped on the ground, and with the violent force fed back from the earth, his figure exploded out.
