Chapter 708: Chapter 179: You Have No Future Anymore_3

While they were talking, the bridge’s effectiveness became evident.

They had limited the width of the bridge to a single lane.

All excess space was cut away, and the extended length measured seven to eight meters.

Even if there were a massive number of zombies coming from the outside world, wanting to charge across the bridge, they would crowd each other at this spot, ultimately falling into the sea.

Although they couldn’t completely prevent zombies from crossing, they had limited the number and range of the zombies’ charges.

Of course, it wasn’t impossible to split the bridge in two if he really wanted to.

But Lin Fan only wanted to leave a glimmer of hope for the survivors still alive out there.

"Done, what do you think?" Lin Fan said.

The engineers blinked at the scene in front of them; if they hadn’t seen it with their own eyes, they would hardly believe such a thing could happen.

In their view, Lin Fan had called them over hoping they could deal with the bridge, but who would have thought they wouldn’t be of any help at all.

They could only silently exclaim in admiration at Lin Fan’s prowess.

"Mr. Lin, that’s incredible, this will perfectly ensure the structural stability of the bridge."

"Yes, if we were to use explosives, we really wouldn’t be confident, and might even risk damaging the bridge."

"As long as it’s preserved, given our current situation, building such a bridge is impossible; we lack the most professional engineers."

An engineer thought it would be a shame to destroy the bridge, but then he shook his head quickly—it was the apocalypse now, and outside were those zombies that bit people; being alive was fortunate enough, so who would worry about a bridge anymore.

Lin Fan said with a smile, "I was just inspired by the bridge, and I didn’t expect it to really work. The Simulated Divine Artifact in my hand is indeed powerful."

Engineer Alpha: ...

Engineer Beta: ...

They just wanted to say, Mr. Lin, could you not attribute your abilities to the weapon in your hand? The true strength lies with you.

"Everyone, I’m thinking of constructing a wall at the edge of the severed bridge. This way, if someone is on guard here and zombies do appear, they can notify us immediately," said Lin Fan.

An engineer asked, "Mr. Lin, what should the wall be like?"

"It should allow one to take cover inside, and the outer surface must be covered with steel plates," Lin Fan answered.

Once the wall was built, he would definitely enhance it with crystals to strengthen its defenses.

Of course.

He had also considered the appearance of Evolutionary Zombies, such as fused or mixed types; these weren’t zombies that could be dealt with by firearms. Therefore, he never expected the guards here to handle the zombies.

Instead, the idea was to take shelter inside, quickly make a call for help, and ensure one’s safety while waiting for rescue.

"Understood."

The engineers grasped Lin Fan’s concept.

After handling this location.

Lin Fan took them to another bridge and used the same method—a breeze, with no difficulty whatsoever.

And at that moment.

Lin Fan had a feeling that on the other side of the bridge, a gaze seemed to be watching him all the time.

Not just watching Lin Fan— even an ordinary person would feel it when being spied on, as if someone was staring at them.

Lin Fan looked into the distance. To an ordinary person, such a distance would only reveal a dark shape at best.

But for Lin Fan, he could see it clearly.

"It’s that one."

He might not remember other things, but Lin Fan would definitely keep the appearance of zombies in his mind.

Zombies posed a threat to humans.

In such matters, he was never negligent or made any mistakes, because a mistake could potentially lead to danger and the sacrifice of a survivor.

"Mr. Lin, what are you looking at?" an engineer asked.

Lin Fan replied, "Zombies. There’s one on the other side of the bridge watching me. I’ve seen it before; it’s an Evolutionary Zombie capable of triggering a zombie tide, the only species of its kind I’ve encountered so far. It might have been in H city for quite some time, avoiding my cleanup and finally evolving to this extent."

Although he didn’t know the name of that specific zombie, he still briefed them on the general situation.

This was partly to educate them, to help them understand some characteristics of the zombies.

In the minds of the engineers, they imagined a different scenario where the poor zombie was continually evading Lin Fan’s pursuit, thinking, "Just give me a little more time, I’m only a bit away from evolving." After hard effort and evasion, it finally evolved into the form it had imagined.

Believing it was now capable, it launched a final assault against Lin Fan.

Only to meet a tragic defeat.

In the distance.

The mysterious zombie watched the distant figure, its face grotesque, but its pale eyes shone with an intelligent gleam.

It was now prepared to flee.

It had no other intention; the situation in H city no longer allowed it to cause trouble, not to mention there were no zombies left for it to command. It truly could not tolerate this.

"Hehe," the mysterious zombie roared in a low tone. Even though the sound didn’t reach Lin Fan’s ears, the mysterious zombie’s intent might have been, "Just you wait for me. One day, I’ll come to H city with an army of zombies and devour you completely."

It could never forget what had happened before.

Even though it had made thorough preparations.
