Calamity Island: Endless Trials

Chapter 143 The Road to Survival
However, more than 200 meters away, Tang Jiumin didn't have any regrets about it. He just quickly switched the camera of the little robot to look at the situation elsewhere.

Now that these special police have attracted a large number of zombies, are other locations at the street entrance safe?

Obviously not.

The "grand occasion" in front of the supermarket is not a special case. After the little robot changed its perspective, it found that there were more than a dozen shops at the entrance of the entire commercial street.

Except for two gates that remained intact, all other store gates were smashed.

At the entrance of the store and on the street, there were corpses all over the place. Some of them were twitching on the ground, probably in the process of disintegrating into corpses, while more lay motionless on the ground.

For those who fell to the ground, Tang Jiumin zoomed in on the picture and found that these corpses had pale skin and protruding blood vessels, with characteristics that only zombies had.

These zombies were killed by survivors near the street entrance.

It can be concluded from this that the survivors resisted when facing the zombies.

And looking at the gunshot wounds on the zombies on the ground, you can tell that this city is absolutely invincible. The effect of resistance seems to be quite good.

It is a good thing to have survivors, but unfortunately, there are still too few fallen zombies. Compared with the number of zombies wandering around now, it is probably a fraction.

Tang Jiumin clicked on the next wave of images.

On the robot's side, the flames of gunfire appeared in several high-rise shopping malls next to it, and a large piece of white cloth was hung on the window of the top floor of a nearby business center.

The blood red SOS was written in the middle of the cloth, and there were still many blood red handprints on it, and the blood slowly slid down, leaving thin blood stains.

Desperate message for help, the white cloth is still waving at this moment.

The situation is too bad. I'm afraid it has reached a very dangerous situation over there, and the people inside should be in danger.

"hiss……"

"..."

There were gasps around Tang Jiumin.

Except for Liu Ziyun, everyone else gathered around one after another. Looking at the image sent back by the robot, they felt chills in their hearts.

This is not like a human city, it is a scene like hell.

And the most shocking thing is that when zombies appeared in the movie, most of them were in a state of chaos in the early stage, and no one tried their best to rescue them.

But now, they saw the special police.They dispatched and did their best, attracting a large number of zombies there.

But looking at it now, they have to sacrifice, and the supermarket won't last long at all.

Everyone looked dignified, looked at the tablet, and fell into a moment of silence.

In such a place, where should they hide?

You know, there are zombies everywhere.

Li Changfu and Cheng Zhi were fine. Although their faces were not very good-looking, they looked at Tang Jiumin, waiting for the latter to speak.

But the newcomer, who has never experienced such a desperate scene, suddenly collapsed involuntarily.

Too bad, the situation is too bad.

However, maybe God felt that it was not enough to make matters worse, and a new picture appeared on the tablet. I saw a black spot suddenly falling down on a tall building.

The moment the black dot hit the ground, Tang Jiumin and the others felt a clear loud bang across a considerable distance.

At the same time, a cloud of blood burst out on the screen.

Everyone was worried.

Who in that building was completely cornered by zombies?Or after infection, in order to avoid becoming a zombie?Or despair to collapse?

No one knew why, only that the man chose to commit suicide by jumping off the building.

In front of the screen, Liu Ziyun and others showed a burst of grief.

Even though Tang Jiumin said that the people in the trial scene had no meaning to exist, they were still one of the survivors.

People will always empathize with such a terrible and hopeless situation.

Of course, Tang Jiumin also frowned, but his focus was different from the others, and he was staring at the group of zombies next to the corpse.

Because in the next second, those zombies rushed forward.

Under the horrified gaze of Liu Ziyun and others, they tried their best to pounce on the corpse and eat their former kind.

Whatever the cause of the poor man's suicide now, his end is totally doomed.

Those zombies have completely become a new "species". They can't feel the emotions of human beings, even if the two parties used to have the same human emotions.

Now, they are just a group of walking corpses, relying on instinct to devour and pollute the same kind.

This is the zombie.

The scene of the zombies sharing food was too bloody, making everyone feel that the process was extremely long.

But in fact, in less than 20 seconds, the group of zombies lying on the ground slowly got up, and then dispersed, revealing the location of the corpses.

The bloody, horrific corpses are now showing bones, and some organs are even scattered on the ground.
"vomit……"

A few newcomers who were less psychologically receptive immediately looked away, and Lan Chenlin couldn't help but feel nauseous and retched.

The expressions of the old people couldn't be better either. Regardless of Liu Ziyun and Chen Min who had gone through two trials, or the others who had gone through one trial, they were all shocked by the bloody scene on the screen.

Tang Jiumin's face was sullen, and after reading a few images again, he looked up at the crowd.

And the others were also feeling something, looking at Tang Jiumin together.

The situation near the intersection is very dangerous. Where can they hide so that they can survive the next two days?
Everyone is waiting for Tang Jiumin's plan.

Under the gaze of everyone, Tang Jiumin first swiped a few times on the tablet, and a map appeared on the screen, which was captured by the little robot from the screen of the mobile phone.

Tang Jiumin zoomed in on one of the places on the map.

"This is where we are at the moment. Although it's still in the East Park, it's near the intersection of Third Avenue in the business district."

"As for the business district opposite the East Park where we are located, there are five avenues in total, adjacent to the park."

"Just now I saw the remote image sent by the little robot. The conditions of these five street entrances are similar, which means that there are resistance forces in the city. Unfortunately, their strength is not enough at present. For example, the group of special police officers will surely die."

"Am I right, Liu Ziyun?" Tang Jiumin looked at Liu Ziyun to confirm the situation.

The two really cultivated some tacit understanding, Liu Ziyun immediately understood what Tang Jiumin wanted to ask, he nodded, and said sadly:
"That's right, those special police officers can't last long. They can't stand the siege of zombies. Although they are brave enough, if they continue, they will only have suicide."

As a policeman, it was difficult for Liu Ziyun not to put his emotions into it at this time.If it was him, I'm afraid he would choose to commit suicide the moment his ammunition ran out.

Liu Ziyun looked very pessimistic, while Tang Jiumin, who was questioning him, began to think about the next step.

In Tang Jiumin's eyes, whether it is a special police officer or a person who committed suicide, those are just a bunch of data that tell him clues.

The special police are not trustworthy, and it seems that another road must be chosen.

Thinking of this, Tang Jiumin raised his finger and pointed to a relatively small street between the third street and the fourth street.

"To avoid the zombies, you can only walk this street first."

Everyone looked in the direction of Tang Jiumin's finger and found that although the street was about 20 meters wide, it was not a formal street, but a sidewalk for hawkers at night.

Compared with other commercial streets, it is actually more like a big alley.

This one?

Everyone showed puzzled looks. They didn't understand why Tang Jiumin chose such a narrow street. Isn't a wider street more conducive to his performance?

Liu Ziyun asked everyone's doubts, but Tang Jiumin shook his head and explained:
"Don't think too much, the commercial street is just better to go to the office area, where do you really think it will be better? Most areas will still kill us."

"Look at this sidewalk. It's interesting here. It connects many shopping malls, but the shopping malls on the left and right are facing the avenues on both sides. The doors on this sidewalk are all back doors."

What is this?
A group of people were a little puzzled.

Seeing that they didn't understand, Tang Jiumin explained further.

"There are only a lot of people here at night, and it is far worse during the day. Moreover, the people at the shopping mall will not choose to escape through the back door when they first flee for their lives."

"When the zombies broke out, if it was you, the first thing you would think about is how to escape? How to leave the mall?"

"The answer is simple, there is no better tool than a car."

Speaking of this, Tang Jiumin pointed the enlarged image on the tablet to everyone, "There is not a single car on this road, so I think there should be relatively fewer zombies inside."

"From our current position, there is a battle taking place at the intersection on the left. It is certain that most of the zombies on the left are attracted."

"As for the right side, although no gunfire can be heard, the helicopters flying in the sky can be seen, indicating that the city's police forces are desperately supporting the fighting below."

"Since there are battles at the corners of the third street and the fourth street, the zombies on this sidewalk are likely to be attracted away. Going in at this time is the least dangerous."

Tang Jiumin's explanation was so clear that the confused newcomers around him could understand it clearly.

Others looked thoughtful, and among them, Cheng Zhi thought even further, and asked, "What should we do after we go in?"

The newcomers came back to their senses and looked at Tang Jiumin.

Yes, the number of zombies on that street may be relatively small, the question is what to do after entering?
"Of course we have to leave as soon as possible." Tang Jiumin said while moving his fingers along the tablet, sliding all the way along the street.

"There are fewer zombies on this street, but unfortunately, there is no solid shelter, so our goal is still on the main street."

I saw my finger passing the street, passing through an alley, and then pointing to a five-star hotel on Fourth Avenue.

On the map, there is a special mark next to the five-star hotel.

【Decoration】

Decoration?
Tang Jiumin saw the shocked look of the group of people in front of him, and nodded with a smile.

"So, the target of our operation this time is this five-star hotel that is being renovated. The map says that the hotel will reopen soon, indicating that the decoration has been completed inside, but! There are no guests."

"This is the best place for us when we have enough water and food in our backpacks."

That's it!

After listening to Tang Jiumin's explanation, everyone showed an expression of enlightenment, followed by ecstasy.

Great, really great!

Before, they thought they were doomed and couldn't find a suitable solution, but now they see that there is no unparalleled path!
"Okay." Tang Jiumin shrugged his shoulders in a rare mood and reminded them, "Get things ready and listen to my instructions later."

After the voice fell, everyone immediately began to check weapons and belongings.

Unknowingly, there was a look of hope in everyone's eyes, and they were once again motivated by Tang Jiumin's plan to persevere.

Seeing this scene, Liu Ziyun felt relieved.

Soon, under Tang Jiumin's urging and leading the way, everyone moved forward along the established route.After a while, I left the park and entered the 20-meter-wide pedestrian street.

As a snack street that only opens at night, the situation here is different from that of the park. The roads are relatively narrow and the sight line is not wide.

Fortunately, there were small robots in front of them to investigate, so Tang Jiumin and others knew the situation ahead in advance.

Sure enough, as Tang Jiumin guessed before, there are no zombies gathered in this snack street so far.

But after everyone entered this snack street, they saw with their own eyes the barren scene in the city after the zombie outbreak.

On both sides of the street, the doors of many snack bars were open, but there was no one inside, and various things were scattered all over the place.

No, there are people from the past, and now zombies, whose heads were opened and lying on the ground.

In some stores, blood was splashed everywhere on the ground and walls, like children's graffiti. There were still limbs and arms on the ground, as well as zombies who lost their limbs and could not move, but could only open and close their mouths.

It seems that when disaster strikes, those who can escape will flee, and those who cannot escape will naturally become zombies.

There was clearly a blue sky above, but the streets were so quiet that it was frighteningly quiet, even scarier than the streets at night.

Liu Ziyun was still cleaning up the orders at the front, and everyone was advancing along the established route, carefully avoiding various obstacles so as not to make noise, almost moving in a curve.

I don't know if it is the effect of the environment, plus the psychological effect of everyone, anyway, the only sound of their light footsteps is left in the whole street.

Liu Ziyun and Tang Jiumin, in addition to observing the real-time transmission from the tablet, they also pay attention to the surrounding area from time to time, so as not to attract the attention of zombies and lead to being surrounded by more zombies.

And behind them, no matter the "veterans" such as Chen Min who have experienced the trial, or the newcomers who just participated in the trial this time, even if there is someone leading the team in front of them, they are still nervous, and their legs are a little weak when they walk.

Fortunately, Tang Jiumin and Liu Ziyun have rich experience and successfully avoided obstacles and cleared dangers along the way.

In the end, they finally made it to their first destination, which was a fork in the snack street.

As soon as I came here, a cold wind blew out from the fork in the road, and there was a sudden rustling sound inside.

The newcomers immediately took a few steps back.

Liu Ziyun took a quick look at the tablet in Tang Jiumin's hand, and quickly turned around to signal that everyone was not in danger, so that they would not be confused.

It turned out that it was a plastic bag that blew out from the inside.

The newcomers heaved a sigh of relief. At that moment just now, they felt that their hearts were about to stop suddenly.

Right in front of the crowd, Tang Jiumin took the lead to raise his leg and entered the fork in the road. Liu Ziyun followed closely behind him, turning his head to beckon everyone behind him to follow quickly.

Finally, they left safely from Snack Street, and now as long as they pass through this alley, they will cross to Fourth Avenue.

And there, leaving the exit of the alley, the destination of their trip: Four Squirrel Hotel.

Just 120 meters away.
