From the fourth floor to the third floor, and then to the second floor.
In the hallways and classrooms, zombies kept pouring out, far exceeding previous estimates.
Conservative estimate: at least a hundred or so.
However, these zombie hordes, which would be a hopeless situation for ordinary survivors, were incredibly fragile and vulnerable in the face of Zhou Ye's team.
The mechanical soldiers' shots were perfectly accurate, with each bullet finding its target precisely.
Saeko Busujima, like a purple lightning bolt darting between the brink of death, efficiently eliminates any threat that tries to approach.
Nanrika, along with Jack, Oda, and several other bodyguards, closely protected Takashiro Yuriko and the students, following behind the group.
The guns in their hands were now practically useless.
Looking at the devastating massacre ahead, the group exchanged a shocked glance.
Nanri lowered her voice and said to Jack beside her, "These people... are too strong."
She considered herself exceptionally skilled and a sharpshooter, but she felt a huge gap between herself and the mechanical soldiers and the girl wielding the katana.
Jack's Adam's apple bobbed, but he didn't speak; he simply gripped the submachine gun in his hand tighter.
These people's combat capabilities have exceeded his understanding of elites.
Even the most elite special forces would probably find it difficult to be so calm, efficient, and accurate.
Yuriko Takagi's face was pale, but her eyes held an unusually complex expression.
She watched Zhou Ye's retreating figure. The man remained calm throughout, as if everything before him had nothing to do with him.
Who is he?
This power, this indifference, sent a chill down her spine.
Saya Takagi stared intently at the mechanical soldiers, her eyes behind her glasses flashing with inquiry and confusion.
Don't these people feel any fear or apprehension? They're as cold and indifferent as machines.
"Mom, they..."
Yuriko Takashiro held her daughter's hand and gently shook her head, indicating that she should not ask any more questions.
Shizuka Marikawa gripped Nami's arm tightly, her body trembling slightly.
She felt both reassured by the overwhelming force and disturbed by the bloodshed.
Nami patted her hand, her expression calm.
She was already used to Zhou Ye's methods.
Finally, the group arrived at the staircase leading to the lobby on the first floor.
Dozens of zombies roamed the hall below the stairs.
They smelled the presence of humans and began to stir, letting out hoarse roars.
Zhou Ye stopped in his tracks.
"Prepare."
His voice remained calm.
"After reaching the first floor, everyone rushed towards the armored vehicles on the playground at top speed."
"Don't delay, don't fall behind."
He paused, his gaze sweeping over the students.
"Most importantly, don't scream."
“Any action that might attract more trouble will be seen as a threat to the entire team.”
His words were devoid of emotion, yet they instilled a strange sense of fear in the students.
"do you understand?"
The students nodded eagerly, some even avoiding looking Zhou Ye in the eye.
"Saeko, you and Team A clear the passage." Zhou Ye looked at Saeko Busujima.
Saeko Busujima's lips curled into a bloodthirsty smile: "Glad to serve you."
She rushed down the stairs first, wielding her katana and leaving a trail of afterimages.
Mechanical soldiers followed closely behind, shields in front, guns spitting fire.
[Bang bang bang! 】
[Pfft pfft pfft!]
The horde of zombies below the stairs was instantly engulfed in intense firepower.
Saeko Busujima's katana sliced through rotting heads as easily as cutting tofu.
In less than a minute, all the zombies in the hall were wiped out.
"go!"
Zhou Ye gave a low shout and took the first step.
Nami supported Shizuka Marikawa and followed closely behind.
Yuriko Takagi, accompanied by Saya Takagi and protected by bodyguards, quickly followed.
Urged on by Jack and the others, the students rushed frantically toward the hall.
The hall connects to the main gate of the college, and outside the main gate is an open area leading to the playground.
However, just when everyone thought they could breathe a sigh of relief.
【Woof woof woof! 】
Woof woof woof!
A piercing bark suddenly came from outside the main gate.
A dozen or so dark figures of varying sizes suddenly darted out from the bushes on either side of the main gate!
It's a dog!
No, they are zombie dogs infected with the T-virus!
They were bloated, with hair loss, revealing rotting, pus-filled skin, bloodshot eyes, protruding fangs, and foul-smelling saliva dripping from their mouths.
These zombie dogs are incredibly fast, using all four limbs to pounce on the crowd like arrows released from a bow!
"Watch out!" Nanri Xiang shouted, raising her gun and firing.
[Bang! Bang!]
The bullet struck a zombie dog, exploding into two sprays of blood, but it did not stop its charge.
"what--!"
A girl running ahead saw the hideous zombie dogs and her legs went weak, causing her to fall to the ground with a piercing scream.
The scream, like a pebble thrown into a calm lake, instantly triggered a chain reaction.
More girls started screaming uncontrollably.
"Aaaaaah! A monster!"
"Help! Help!"
Their screams echoed far across the empty playground.
In the nearby school buildings, the zombies that hadn't been attracted because of the distance suddenly turned around, roaring, and surged toward the source of the screams!
Zhou Ye's face instantly darkened.
He turned around abruptly and looked at the girl who had fallen to the ground and was still screaming.
"Shut up!"
His voice wasn't loud, but it carried a chilling undertone.
The girl's scream stopped abruptly when he shouted at her, but her body began to tremble even more violently.
"Damn it!" Zhou Ye cursed under his breath.
What he worried about most happened.
These students, in this environment, are the biggest destabilizing factor.
"run!"
Zhou Ye's voice was filled with suppressed anger.
"If you don't want to die, you fucking run!"
He ignored the students and turned to Nami and Saeko Busujima, saying:
"Cover your retreat! Target: armored vehicle!"
The mechanical soldiers immediately adjusted their formation, with some continuing to shoot down the attacking zombie dogs, while others turned to suppress the horde of zombies surging from the direction of the teaching building.
Saeko Busujima wielded her katana even faster, each strike precisely severing the zombie dogs' necks or heads.
However, there were too many zombie dogs, and they were extremely agile.
A particularly large zombie dog bypassed the mechanical soldiers' firepower and pounced on Takagi Saya!
"Saya!" Takagi Yuriko exclaimed.
Nanri Kaori 773 reacted extremely quickly, stepping forward to shield Takagi Saya with her body, while simultaneously aiming her pistol at the zombie dog's head.
【boom! 】
The bullet hit its mark precisely, and the zombie dog's head exploded like a watermelon.
The foul-smelling blood and brain matter splattered all over Nanli Xiang.
"Run!" Nanri Kaori shoved Takagi Saya, while another zombie dog bit her calf.
"Rika!" Shizuka Marikawa screamed.
"Don't worry about me! Get in the car!" Despite the excruciating pain, Nan Lixiang fired another shot at the zombie dog that pounced on her.
