Chapter 469: Hospital
Translator: Liu_Kaixuan Editor: Valvrave
The distance from Area A to the hospital was not far, but crossing that distance flooded with infected people was challenging, which was equal to trying to walk in Hell. The best option for any survivor was to hide quietly.
However, it was impossible for a certain minibus and two military vehicles following closely behind it to be concealed. Due to that, more and more infected started appearing.
The scientists looked horrified after seeing all the infected people coming after them. They knew that once they were surrounded, only death would await them. Unfortunately, they had already got on the tiger's back, so it was almost impossible to get off it now. They had no escape routes!
Infected people constantly jumped up and crashed the cars standing in their path. In a high-speed collision, the heavy military vehicles were constantly shaking, and it felt as if they would be overturned at any time.
'Bang!'
Suddenly, an infected person jumped from a high building and fell right on one of the military vehicles' windshield! The jump's impact from a tall building, combined with the speed of the military vehicle itself, made the collision extremely horrible. The infected person had directly smashed himself into a bloody mush, while at the same time the bulletproof windshield was burst open directly!
"Ah!" The people in the military vehicle screamed. They did not expect that these infected people would launch such a suicide attack for the sake of hurting them!
Fortunately, the soldier who was driving reacted fast enough, so he stabilized the car as soon as possible and then took a sudden turn, throwing away what remained of the infected corpse.
However, immediately after that, because there was no windshield, other infected people sprinted toward them just like some hungry wolves. Although the soldiers in the car had good marksmanship, they could not stand against such an attack. As long as an infected person rushed in, it would be game over.
"I repeated countless times not to go to the hospital! I warned you! Look! They will all die!" Mr. Li shouted from the other vehicle. Although he was scared sh*tless, he still thought that after overturning the other car, the infected would pounce on the unlucky people, and thus buy them time to escape.
"Let's stop that car and use them as bait. That's the only way we can survive," Mr. Li whispered. Seeing that the other vehicle was swaying, and the sparse gunfire couldn't reverse the situation, Mr. Li was overjoyed.
However, while he was immersed in his fantasy of the others being infected while they would escape, a sudden series of gunshots were heard, and a hail of bullets traveled to that direction, striking all the infected!
'What!?' Mr. Li turned back and saw Jiang Liushi standing behind the minibus' rear window. He was holding two Type 95 automatic rifles in each hand, shooting directly.
'He's using the automatic rifles as pistols!?' Although Mr. Li wasn't a soldier, he knew that automatic rifles could not be used with one hand due to their weight and length. Not to mention that ordinary people had difficulty in using them with two hands. Let's not talk about one hand! At the same time, the minibus was being driven at high speed, which made it way more challenging!
'Bang! Bang!'
Gunfire sounded, and eight infected fell again. Even the soldiers were astounded by what they were witnessing.
'How can his sharpshooting skills be so good!?'
"What are you doing? Clean up all the corpses on the hood immediately. By the way, swap places with the military vehicle in front. Keep up with my minibus and stay within a three-meters-radius!" Jiang Liushi shouted.
Maintaining such a close distance could ensure that none of the infected would have a chance to get in. However, that also meant that the driver must have a very high driving skill.
"Er-hu, are you OK?" asked a veteran as he quickly got rid of the corpses with a pole. Er-hu, who was driving, didn't answer but just nodded heavily.
'Three meters!' Er-hu thought that if he couldn't complete such a simple task, he would be useless. And then he stepped on the gas as he wanted to keep up with Jiang Liushi's minibus.
Seeing this scene, that Mr. Li was worried. Although he hated Jiang Liushi, he knew that only Jiang Liushi could currently save him. Originally, their car was in the middle, so it was safe. However, Jiang Liushi disturbed all his plans and ordered for their car swap places. As a leader of the Research Institute, how could they let him stay behind?
"Driver, stop that military vehicle behind us! We cannot allow them to exceed!" Mr. Li shouted.
However, the soldier ignored him directly and then drove to one side, letting that vehicle pass first.
"You! How-" Mr. Li was speechless. He'd like to grab the car's wheel to drive himself. He wanted to say something, but when his words came to his lips, he did not dare to speak out. He still remembered what had happened.
'D*mn! If I knew that, I would have boarded that boy's minibus. I thought he was crazy, but he is powerful,' Mr. Li thought.
Along the way, Mr. Li kept observing all the time and witnessed the young man's powerful abilities.
However, when the gunshots rang, more infected people were attracted, and they rushed over to catch up with the team.
The population of those infected people was even larger than ordinary zombies' group. It was clear that the infected were more sensitive to the sound of living people than ordinary zombies'.
Looking at the black group of infected people, Jiang Liushi also frowned. Just as an old Chinese saying goes, "Many ants can kill one elephant." It was indeed not an easy task to kill all the infected. Moreover, the speed of infecting and spreading was also quite bloodcurdling. Fortunately, it was limited to Area A. Otherwise the whole Xiayuan Safety Zone would be ruined.
"Brother Jiang, look!" Ying reminded.
Jiang Liushi turned to look at that direction and saw a striking red cross above a high building.
"It's the hospital! Finally, we arrived at the hospital!"
