Chapter 161 Zombie Nest

After clearing out the zombies near the business district, Grey Bear and the others happily entered the mall and began to scavenge, even Li Chenzhou, Duan Lei, Duan Xue, and Xiaoya joined in. After all, with Darkblood, a true "motorhome" with a house, Xiaoyu'er was quite safe inside and there was no need to worry at all.

Because there was enough space, they scavenged not only food and water, but also bedding, pots, pans, and everything else they could use, piling it all into the vehicle.

If anyone were watching them at this time, they would surely be puzzled, because they only had an off-road vehicle, but it was carrying six or seven people, and they were still constantly carrying supplies inside. It seemed impossible to fit it all.

Fortunately, there was no "one" watching them, but a very special enhanced zombie.

This enhanced zombie was an agility type, and was clearly intelligent to some degree. He hid behind a window in a building, secretly watching Li Chenzhou and the others through the curtains.

The zombie didn't seem to intend to attack. He simply looked at the road Li Chenzhou and the others had come from, assessed their trajectory, and then remained hidden behind the window, motionless, like a statue.

Li Chenzhou and the others continued to happily transport their supplies. Although it was late, they didn't seem to be in any hurry, because they weren't rushing to leave the city.

In recent days, they had been spending the nights in the city. With Darkblood, they no longer needed to leave. Wherever they cleared to, whenever they wanted to rest, they would simply find a place to park the vehicle and spend the night there.

In Fatty's words, they were now touring around with a big villa, sleeping wherever they went. Darkblood was now fearless even against enhanced zombies, let alone ordinary ones.

The near annihilation by the rat swarm occurred because Li Chenzhou was unconscious, and because he had just obtained Darkfire and hadn't granted permissions to Duan Lei and the others, so they couldn't unleash Darkfire's true power.

Now, Li Chenzhou had long since granted the permissions. Not only Duan Lei, but even Grey Bear, Duan Xue, and the others had the authority to use Darkblood's defense systems. As long as they didn't all fall asleep at the same time, the previous incident would never be repeated.

Because it was an entire business district with countless stores, Li Chenzhou and the others were busy until after ten o'clock in the evening before finally ending their mad "shopping" spree.

In fact, there were still many shops they hadn't visited. However, this was a large business district, and if they really wanted to collect all the supplies from all the nearby shops, it would probably take at least a week. Li Chenzhou didn't have that much time to waste, so they focused on selecting shops with more suitable supplies to store.

After finishing the scavenging, they had a good meal in the living room, then returned to their rooms to sleep. As for Darkfire, with Number One present, as long as anyone or anything approached that posed a threat, Number One would automatically send an alert to Li Chenzhou, Duan Lei, and Grey Bear.

The next morning, after washing up and eating breakfast, Li Chenzhou and the others continued onward, bypassing the city according to their planned route. Only after they had killed their way far away did the zombie that had been monitoring them suddenly leap out of the window, slide down the outer wall to the ground, and then surprisingly get into a car, start it, and drive towards the city center...

In fact, this zombie wasn't the first to monitor Li Chenzhou and the others. Over the past few days, at least dozens of zombies had been watching them and recording their route, but because these zombies were hidden like this one, Li Chenzhou and the others hadn't noticed.

Even though Li Chenzhou had ten years of experience from his previous life, he had never been monitored by zombies before, so of course he wouldn't have thought of it! Especially since the number of zombies had been steadily decreasing and there hadn't been a single enhanced zombie, it had completely absorbed his attention, leaving him with no energy to think about anything else.

Having seen the abundance of supplies in the business district, and knowing they already had a lot stored, they didn't bother with the smaller shops as they continued forward, leaving them for other survivors. Their main focus was on a killing spree, wiping out every zombie they encountered.

As a result, the speed of Li Chenzhou's team increased considerably, as collecting supplies was actually more time-consuming than killing zombies.

Soon, after another two days, their team finally advanced to the vicinity of the Second Ring Road. Once they entered the Second Ring Road, they would essentially be in the city center of Qing City.

The Second Ring Road had a total length of nearly thirty kilometers and was said to have been built along the foundations of the ancient city walls. In other words, the area within the Second Ring Road was the entire extent of ancient Qing City, and the Second Ring Road was equivalent to the city wall of ancient Qing City.

As they approached the Second Ring Road, everyone except Duan Lei, Xiaoya, and Xiaoyu'er were in front of Darkblood, walking and killing zombies along the way. They were now on a wide main road – Central Avenue.

This road ran straight through Qing City and was also known as the central axis road, connecting all the ring roads and the highways leading out of the city.

"Look over there!"

Just over a hundred meters away from the Second Ring Road overpass, Grey Bear, who was leading the way, suddenly stopped, raised the binoculars hanging around his neck, looked ahead, and pointed in that direction:

"I think we're about to reach the zombies' nest!"

Li Chenzhou stepped forward, took the binoculars, and looked ahead. Sure enough, he saw that the Central Avenue ahead, about five or six hundred meters away, was crowded with zombies, blocking the entire road.

"It seems the person we're looking for is there!"

Li Chenzhou took a deep breath, then waved his hand and said:

"Everyone get in the vehicle!"

Without a doubt, the zombies that had been missing from the city had all been gathered here. While they were clearing the city, Grey Bear and Fatty had been walking in front of the war chariot, but the gunman hadn't appeared to snipe them. So, Li Chenzhou guessed that the gunman should also be ahead.

That's right, Grey Bear and Fatty were leading the way in front of the war chariot, acting as bait. If the gunman saw them strolling in front of the war chariot, he should attack them, and as long as he dared to do so, Li Chenzhou would find his location and immediately drive the vehicle over there.

Unfortunately, over the past seven or eight days, Grey Bear and the others had been wandering outside, but the gunman hadn't taken the bait. There were only two possibilities: one was that the gunman had left, and the other was that the mastermind behind him was the one who had gathered the zombies in the central area of the city...
