Chapter 20 Arriving at the Destination
When Lin Yi woke up, the sun was already shining slantly into the house, and it was noon.
He rubbed his groggy eyes, got up from the bed, and walked out of the room.
In the hall, everyone is busy.
Busujima Saeko was preparing food in the kitchen. Her movements were very elegant, and even in this environment, she still maintained a different kind of calmness.
Kota Hirano and Takashi Komuro are collecting and sorting out the remaining supplies, classifying and placing useful things.
Seeing Lin Yi get up, Busujima Saeko smiled and invited him to come over for lunch.
On the table, although the food is simple, it is particularly precious at this moment.
Lin Yi ate quickly, then sat around with everyone and began to discuss the details of leaving.
After confirming that the supplies were ready, Lin Yi sat in the passenger seat of the Hummer holding the Black Abyss Sword.
This position requires strong observation and reaction skills. Apart from Lin Yi, Busujima Saeko is suitable for this position.
The town seemed extremely quiet during the day, and the houses on both sides of the street had their doors and windows closed, as if their owners had become infected, or were hiding in their homes and shivering.
There was an indescribable sense of depression in the air, which made people shudder.
The Hummer drove slowly towards the bridge, and in the distance you could see that some of the cars on the bridge were still burning, and the flames were soaring into the sky, reflecting the sky.
The police who once stood on the defensive line have now turned into hideous-looking infected bodies, gathering on one side of the bridge and making blood-curdling roars.
Lin Yi looked at the scene in front of him, his brows furrowed.
It seems that the defense line last night was finally broken. These infected bodies are so pervasive that it is difficult to prevent them.
"Let's take the waterway. The bridge seems to be blocked." Lin Yi suggested.
Marikawa Shizuka nodded and skillfully drove the Hummer towards the canal.
This military Hummer has the function of amphibious use and can travel smoothly even in water.
In this way, those infected bodies will not pose a threat to them.
Everyone was admiring the surrounding scenery in the car. Although the infected bodies around them made the scenery a bit blurry, other than that, the scenery did not change much.
The river is sparkling and the trees on both sides are lush, as if you are in a peaceful picture.
"Go forward along the river, and finally turn left at the intersection ahead."
Saya Takagi stuck her head out and showed Marikawa Shizuka the way.
With Lin Yi here, the group set off much faster than in the original work, and avoided a lot of trouble.
Half an hour later, they finally arrived at the villa of Saya's family in Gaocheng.
The road was blocked by a barbed wire fence, and everyone was helpless for a while.
Lin Yi didn't panic. He calmly took out a flare from the trunk. Although it was daytime, the close distance was enough for people in the villa to notice the existence of the flare.
With the sound of gunfire, a red signal flare streaked across the sky and successfully took off.
The gunshot also attracted the surrounding infected bodies.
They roared and surrounded everyone.
Kota Hirano raised his gun and wanted to shoot, but Lin Yi raised his hand to stop his next action.
"Don't shoot. There aren't many infected people gathered right now. If you shoot, it will attract more infected people."
Lin Yi glanced around and saw that the sound of the flare gun was not loud, just similar to the sound of fireworks. Except for the infected bodies in the nearby area, the infected bodies from other places did not come over.
Once the shot is fired, there will be more than this amount.
Hirano Kota could only helplessly put away the rifle in his hand.
Lin Yi and Busujima Saeko drew their weapons and slowly moved towards the infected bodies around them. As if hearing the footsteps of the two people, the movements of the infected bodies became obviously more violent, and many infected bodies roared in the direction of Lin Yi.
However, since Lin Yi obtained the [Dead Body Virus Immunity Potion], these ordinary infectious bodies are no longer considered a threat by Lin Yi.
Lin Yi held the Black Abyss Sword and stood directly in front of the corpses, surrounded by infected bodies coming in like a tide.
The Black Abyss Sword shone with a cold light in the sun, like a ferocious beast that chooses people to devour, waiting for the bloodthirsty opportunity, which complemented Lin Yi's momentum.
The infected bodies surged in like a tide, roaring and rushing towards Lin Yi.
Their bodies were twisted and deformed, their skin was ulcerated, and their bones were exposed. Their eyes were flashing with red light, full of desire for blood.
Lin Yi's eyes were cold, and his body was moving through the infected bodies like the wind.
He swung the Black Abyss Sword, and every time the sword light flashed, it was accompanied by a shrill scream.
Infected bodies fell down one after another, blood splattering everywhere.
The Black Abyss Sword seemed to become a part of Lin Yi's body in Lin Yi's hands, dancing with his movements, showing amazing power.
Faced with the siege, Lin Yi did not panic.
He jumped into the air and struck down with his sword, splitting several infected bodies in half.
The movements are quick and smooth, as if dancing with the Black Abyss Sword, performing a bloody dance together.
When the last infected body fell under Lin Yi's sword, the battle ended.
Lin Yi stood quietly in the sea of blood. The blood stains on the Black Abyss Sword looked particularly dazzling in the sun.
Busujima Saeko looked at Lin Yi, with complicated emotions flashing in his eyes.
She was deeply attracted by Lin Yi's violent figure just now. That powerful and cold temperament made her heart beat faster and she couldn't help but clench her legs.
A few minutes later, a group of people wearing chemical protective suits appeared on the other side of the fence.
When they saw Lin Yi and Busujima Saeko standing in the center of the corpses, many people couldn't help but gasp.
These people were obviously shocked by the scene of the two men killing many infected bodies.
The leader took off the mask on his head, revealing a delicate face and long pink hair.
She is none other than Takagi Saya's mother, Takagi Yuriko.
"Shaye, you are finally back."
Takagi Yuriko said softly, her eyes full of longing and worry for her daughter.
After Takagi Saya saw the appearance of the visitor, tears burst out of her eyes and she threw herself into her mother's arms.
The mother and daughter hugged each other tightly, as if they wanted to melt all the separation and worries during this period into the embrace.
"Okay, everyone, go in quickly, it's not safe here."
Takagi Yuriko gently stroked Takagi Saya's hair to soothe her emotions.
Then, she signaled the people behind her to start cleaning up the infected corpses that Lin Yi had beheaded.
If the smell of blood is too strong, it will attract more infected bodies to gather.
Under the leadership of Gao Cheng Yuriko, the group finally successfully crossed the cordon.
Seeing the security personnel coming and going around, everyone on the Humvee breathed a sigh of relief.
The escape and fighting during this period made them physically and mentally exhausted, and now they finally have a safe haven.
"Soichiro is leading people outside to collect supplies now. Let's find a house to live in."
