Zombie Apocalypse: Creation

When the two arrived at the station, Cheng Zui and his men had already set up several tables.

Only a few people were lining up before the tables, which had crates on either side containing different types of weapons.

"Took you two long enough. I already copied what you wrote on that piece of paper you put inside the office." Cheng Zui complained as he brought the two over to the back.

"Sorry about that... How's the plan going?" Lianzheng curiously asked.

"So-so. Around fifty out of two hundred people... But it still isn't done yet." Cheng Zui replied.

"Only fifty? That's so little." Tingliao commented in a surprised tone.

"How about getting everyone signed up for identification? Is that done?" Lianzheng asked.

"Yeah, it's done. Those five are still hesitant about joining our group," Cheng Zui clarified as he pointed over the people lining the table.

"Tell them they have five more minutes... I need to tell you what we're going to do next..." Lianzheng stated as he thought back to the plan he had last night with Lingling.

Back to early in the morning...

"When are we leaving?" Kate asked as she hadn't had a proper sleep for almost three days in a row.

"Today. We're going to give them one more supply drop before leaving... It'll be up to them what happens down here next."

"Really? That fast?" Kate asked in a surprised tone.

"Yes. We have been down here for the past three days now. We still need to explore the rest of the city."

As Xiaoyun finished talking, the two were in another abandoned room of the metro line, getting ready to make more weapons and food.

"Man... I'm definitely going to ask Yueyue for a break or something. This got to be the worst experience I ever had."

Kate complained that she could smell odor coming from her body and Xiaoyun's body, as the two of them hadn't showered at all.

Xiaoyun didn't comment back, as his attention was on building the rifle in his hand. However, it wasn't just any rifle.

It was the QBZ-95, the standard-issued rifle for the army. It was a replica he once touched when he went to save soldiers in Tianci's lab.

"You know, It always feels weird to see this gun. The design and shape look so different from that of M4 and AK."

"Well, it's issued to the army for a reason... It actually feels pretty fitting to use." Xiaoyun stated as he picked up a completed Type-95 off the table.

"Then why don't you issue the army with Type-95 instead of AKM?" Kate curiously asked.

"Because it's not high enough caliber. Even AkM can't blow off a zombie's limb in a single shot anymore.

If the average zombies start mutating even stronger, I might need to move to an even higher caliber." Xiaoyun explained.

A few hours later...

The two finally finished making ten Type-95s from pieces Xiaoyun had created.

"That's enough. If they need brute force to convince other metro stations to join, they already fail halfway anyway."

Xiaoyun turned his attention over to making food, which took almost half the day as he made an entire room full of food.

"This should last the entire metro for at least a few weeks," Xiaoyun murmured as he and Kate left the room.

"You okay? You looked a little tired." Kate worryingly asked.

"I'm fine. Also, hand me your invisible cloak. I'll switch the battery."

After switching the batteries and turning it back on, the two began walking towards the metro station.

But just before they arrived there, the entire metro shook for a second.

"What was that?" Kate asked as she panicked for a second.

"About time... It's just the artillery strike. Let's go meet with Lianzheng."

As the two jumped up to the metro station, they noticed most people were standing outside their tents, practicing their weapons or exercising.

Some of the police were even exercising as if they were training to get stronger like everyone else.

The two slowly walked past the crowd of people, taking the stairs up to the office before arriving at the front entrance.

Before approaching a police guard, the two turned off their invisibility.

"Hold, what's your business here today?" The guard asked.

"I'm the army representative, Mr.Songming——"

"This way, sir. Sorry for stopping you." The guard quickly apologized as he opened the door and moved to the side.

After walking for a bit, the two finally arrived at Lianzheng's office and waited as they knocked on the door.

"Who is it?" Lianzheng's voice came out from inside the room.

"It's me, Songming."

As the door opened, Lianzheng led the two inside to have a seat before sitting in his office seat.

"I'm just going to jump straight to business. You probably already heard the artillery strike, right?"

Seeing Lianzheng nodding, Xiaoyun continued.

"So about the whole taking over the metro station within a week, you can just scrap that idea."

"Wait, why?" Lianzheng asked, as he couldn't understand why Xiaoyun would take that requirement back.

"I didn't really think about it rationally. It was never going to be a fast thing, and since we're not in a rush, you guys do not need a due date.

But... I'll be leaving this metro station after this. I need to report back to the army for a mission."

Seeing Xiaoyun looking determined to leave, Lianzheng didn't try to ask him to stay.

"Thank you for your help, sir."

Lianzheng got up from his seat and bowed down in gratitude, as he would never be in this position without his help.

"No problem. Just remember to treat the people down nicer... Oh, I should mention that I left a gift in an abandoned room near your home.

You should probably get it before someone else takes it... Good luck."

As Xiaoyun got up from his seat and headed towards the exit, Kate followed behind and left.

"What could be in the gift?" Lianzheng murmured to himself as he called several police to follow him outside.

---

As the two finally took their first step into the outside world, they took a deep breath of fresh air.

"Ah, it's so nice to breathe something other than that awful metro smell," Kate commented as she stretched out her arms.

"Yeah, yeah... Let's go to a nearby hotel. I'm so sleepy."

After turning their invisible cloak on, the two inevitably bumped into each other again as they tried to avoid bumping into the zombies that filled the entire street.

Xiaoyun once again forced Kate to hold hands, with him in the front, leading her past all the zombies.

After walking for a bit, they could see a bunch of signs in a Residential area, all asking for help.

However, the signs all looked a little yellow, which made it clear that they were made at the start of the outbreak.

"How are there still so many zombies..." Kate whispered into the mic as the zombies practically surrounded them.

"They have nowhere to wander to," Xiaoyun explained through the mic as he accidentally bumped into one of the zombies.

But the zombies don't react at all, as if they just thought it was air that bumped into them.

"What if we start killing the zombies with the invisible cloak?" Kate suddenly suggested as they headed inside a grocery store.

"If you want to die, you can try that——"

Before Xiaoyun finished talking, a zombie's head was cut clean off as it dropped onto the front entrance.

Immediately, all the zombies started growling as they looked for a target, but they eventually calmed down after finding none.

"What the fuck are you thinking?" Xiaoyun angrily asked as he dragged Kate into the storage unit.

"Hey, that worked. The zombies didn't even notice me at all." Kate tries to argue, despite knowing what she did could have gotten them killed.

"Yeah, they didn't notice us. But now the entire front entrance is full of zombies."

Xiaoyun opened the storage unit door for a second, allowing Kate to see the front entrance, which was now full of zombies as they started eating the corpses on the floor.

"Ugh, why are they eating their own kind?" Kate asked as she almost threw up on the spot.

"I don't know. Do I look like a scientist? Now you know why we don't try to kill zombies with this cloak?"

"My bad..." Kate apologized as she bowed down a little.

After waiting for a bit, a gap appeared between the horde of zombies, which Xiaoyun took the opportunity to sneak past as they finally walked out of the grocery store.

"There's a hotel," Xiaoyun murmured as he noticed the commercial area in the distance.

The two started walking faster and faster, not wanting to waste any more time as they were sick of being surrounded by zombies.

But at the front entrance of the hotel, it was once again full of zombies.
