Chapter 885: Chapter 386 On the Way_2

Lin Meng wanted to cry but had no tears: "I was just trying to find a reason for your malicious idea."

Lin Wu said, "Here they come."

This time three came, and Lin Wu decisively shot one dead with a pistol.

Working non-stop, drinking water and eating biscuits during breaks, after an hour of effort, they finally wiped out more than 30 zombies and cleared the railway track. Weren’t there only about a dozen zombies on the track? No helping it, the zombies on the platform also jumped down after discovering Xiao Wu.

Even so, the track was still not safe, as it was too close to the zombies on the platform. The three of them walked forward close to the wall. Lin Wu, carrying a silencer pistol, was responsible for dealing with any zombies that suddenly decided to take a stroll on the rail tracks. Lin Meng and Xiao Wu were armed with assault rifles; if they alarmed the horde of zombies, they would have to fight while running for their lives.

Halfway through the journey, a zombie fell from the platform and landed next to Xiao Wu. Lin Wu, like a starving tiger pouncing on its prey, executed it with a dagger. Although Xiao Wu had witnessed Lin Wu’s performance, he could only look up to Lin Wu’s decisive actions. According to Lin Wu’s background, they had never really encountered zombies before.

They passed safely under the platform and congratulated each other with a high five continuing towards the fire station. Walking halfway, they saw a subway train stopped on the tracks with its lights still on, clearly showing an entire train full of zombies. Originally, a density of one zombie per square meter was terrifying enough, but inside the carriages, the density reached eight, maybe even ten zombies per square meter.

Some carriage windows were broken, probably caused by zombies during the process of assimilating humans. As all humans were assimilated, there were no fresh humans nearby, so the zombies in the six carriages were very quiet. They were squeezed together, expressionless and dull. Most of the zombies were dressed in suits, and at a glance, it was hard to tell if they were white-collar workers on their way to work or soulless zombies.

There were also a few zombies outside the carriages, perhaps pushed out through the windows during the assimilation process. This was a monorail subway; after a carriage was placed on the track, the space for movement on both sides was very narrow. The tunnel was round overall, and the terrain on either side of the train was curved.

Of course, not all tunnels were like this, but that was the case with this subway train. As for why it stopped here, there were many possibilities. Maybe the driver saw that the platform was filled with office worker zombies and turned towards the fire station, or maybe the subway dispatch ordered the driver to stop temporarily.

After weighing their options, the three decided to crawl. To avoid making noise in the process, they handled their firearms first. Lin Wu led the way since he also needed to deal with two zombies. Lin Meng followed behind, looking at Lin Wu’s twisting buttocks, impulsively flicked them, then immediately lowered her head upon realizing she had done something wrong. Lin Wu turned and glared at Lin Meng, who looked innocent. That expression made Lin Wu slightly uncertain, but fortunately, Lin Meng knew that life was at stake and did not fool around anymore, allowing the three to pass another test smoothly.

They were ten meters from the train’s head when the system issued a mission: Rescue the Survivor. There was a survivor hidden in the bathroom of carriage number 3. If they brought her out to a point ten meters away from the train, they would receive 2000 mission points. Mission points could be used to generate tasks.

Lin Meng and Lin Wu looked at each other, slapped their buttocks, and walked away. Xiao Wu was puzzled; what did their looks mean? He always felt that Lin Wu’s 90% honesty concealed some very important information.

...

There were no zombies on the platform of the fire station. The three entered the hall with vending machines, shops, restrooms, etc., and two escalators in the middle of the front wall, with stairs on both sides extending over 30 meters.

There were only three zombies in the hall, located near the stairs. There was a buffer platform in the middle of the two escalators, where an alarm sounded continuously, attracting a large crowd of zombies to the middle part of the stairs and escalators, completely blocking the way.

Lin Wu and Xiao Wu looked at each other: there was a problem.

Lin Wu pointed at KFC. Lin Meng and Xiao Wu flanked left and right. As they approached the shop, a woman emerged, startled by the two of them. Xiao Wu took out a badge with his left hand while holding a gun in his right: "Police, who are you?"

This location turned out to be a small gathering place for survivors, with a total of five people, three men and two women, who had stayed here since the morning of the 2nd. One of them was a subway station repairman who maliciously triggered the alarm, gathering the zombies in the middle of the stairs. The zombies in the hall were all the unfortunate dead pushed down from above the stairs.

Perhaps due to manners or maybe because of the gun in Lin Wu’s hand, the survivors were very polite, offering freshly made cola. The machine was hooked up not to tap water but to large barrels of purified water, so the water quality was fine.

Xiao Wu, acting as representative, negotiated with them: "Can you let us go up?"

The woman replied, "You can take the vertical lift." It was an elevator specially provided for people with disabilities, near the restroom.

After a brief exchange and thanks, Lin Wu and the others were ready to leave when the woman asked, "Do you have any spare guns for sale?"

The woman was dressed in casual business attire, typical of successful women, and was very beautiful.

Lin Wu hesitated for 0.1 seconds, then asked, "We can sell pistols, what do you have?" On the first day, Lin Wu got a pistol from the warehouse, Xiao Wu had his service pistol, and Lin Meng had two pistols taken from Fortress. Additionally, according to the agreement with Nightmare, Lin Wu also had two packs of pistols in his backpack.
