Chapter 90: The Mutant Beauties on the Brink of ExtinctionAlex, accompanied by the cat-eared girl Lanshuo and Coco, steps out of the castle, feeling refreshed and invigorated. He now understands why many cat owners love the sensation of 'cat-sniffing'.
Cat-eared girls are truly mesmerizing!
Alex finds himself becoming fond of the feeling of 'cat-sniffing'.
"Fox girl! Cow-headed girl! Snake girl! Centaur girl! Wait for me! I'm coming to save you!" Alex roars excitedly, driving the 'Strangler' armored vehicle, heading straight to the gathering place of the mutants under the guidance of the cat-eared girl Lanshuo.
The mutants' gathering place is located to the southwest of the City of Darkness, about half a city away.
This distance is insurmountable for most people.
But for Alex with his 'Strangler' armored vehicle, it's a piece of cake.
With full power, Alex charges through to the outskirts of the mutants' gathering place.
From a distance, the terrifying tide of zombies seems to have dispersed somewhat.
Still, thousands of zombies are surrounding the neighborhood.
"Hahaha... Uh..."
"Uh... Hahaha..."
The area is filled with the roars of zombies, as lively as a celebrity concert. Sёarᴄh the Novelƒire(.)ne*t website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
Alex has some recollection of this place.
It was originally a development zone, some distance from the city center.
Further out, it's the suburbs.
The shelter where the mutants are located was originally a newly developed residential complex.
Logically, there would have been fewer residents here before.
After the apocalypse, the number of zombies here would also be fewer.
Thus, this place is indeed a good shelter.
According to Lanshuo, their shelter was very safe, and later, it even gathered three to four hundred people!
That many people already make it a relatively large gathering place.
If these people could get along well, unite, and develop the gathering place, it could potentially become a thriving human settlement. Moreover, after consuming all the food here, they could expand towards the suburbs. There would definitely be fewer zombies outside the city area.
Unfortunately, human weaknesses are inevitable. Without the constraints of morals and laws, expecting these people to help each other and coexist harmoniously is nothing but a fool's dream.
Alex takes out a cigarette from his pocket and puts it in his mouth, then has Coco light it for him. He steps hard on the accelerator, and the 'Strangler' armored vehicle roars like a beast, charging straight into the zombie horde.
Meanwhile, on the rooftop of an abandoned factory, the fox girl Qianqian and others are enduring hunger and exhaustion, sitting together in despair.
"Lanlan hasn't come back... It looks like Lanlan has also met with trouble..." Snake girl Miaomiao says, wiping her tears.
"What do we do now? There are zombies all over downstairs. Except for Lanlan, who can climb walls and jump between rooftops, none of us can avoid the zombie horde and break out," says the cow-headed girl Nana, holding a bloody club, her body covered in wounds, looking utterly defeated. "We might as well fight these zombies!
If even one of us can escape, it's better than all of us dying of hunger and thirst here."
"We can't break through; there are too many zombies below, and there's also that pregnant monster," says the fox girl Qianqian, her eyes showing fear at the mention of the pregnant monster. The pregnant monster climbed up from below yesterday, trying to ambush them. They originally thought that only spider monsters could climb walls, but to their surprise, the pregnant monster could climb too!
Moreover, this pregnant monster is not like other zombies; she seems to possess a certain level of intelligence. She knows how to hide her abilities and to choose the right moment to ambush! This is terrifying! If it weren't for the dutiful cow-headed girl Nana, who noticed and blocked the pregnant monster in time, they might all have been killed.
The combat power of the pregnant monster is incredibly strong! The four of them together could not match her.
Moreover, during the fight, the pregnant monster could suddenly shoot the baby from her belly. This baby monster is extremely fast, and one could easily get bitten. Once bitten, the whole body becomes weak and debilitated. Fortunately, at the last moment, snake girl Miaomiao erupted, using her venom to hit and repel the pregnant monster. But, the four of them were also badly injured.
The strongest among them, the cow-headed girl Nana, was covered in wounds. The fox girl Qianqian and the centaur girl Yuanyuan also sustained serious injuries, and their spirits were low, barely holding on. With the shortage of food and water, the four of them had little to no combat strength left. If the pregnant monster recovers and launches another attack, they might all die here.
Fox girl Qianqian looked towards a nearby unfinished building. Those villains, just like them, had long run out of food and water. Driven to desperation, they had already attempted to break out three times! Each attempt was practically a feast for the zombies. After three attempts, half of them had perished. Knowing that breaking out meant certain death, they were still organizing another breakout.
Qianqian knew this was deliberate. By losing some useless people, their food and water would last longer.
"What should we do?" Qianqian turned her head, looking at the dense mass of zombies below. Even with her intelligence and cunning, she couldn't think of any solution. Just then, she saw a car wildly charging towards their location from the outskirts of the development area!
"Look! What is that?! Is someone coming to save us?!"
Nana, the cow-headed girl, also spotted the domineering and wild armored vehicle. In front of the armored vehicle, the zombie horde was like chives, being effortlessly sliced through.
"It's impossible! Who would come to save us? We don't have friends! And... we are monsters..." Miaomiao, the snake girl, said despondently: "That car must be going to save those people."
Miaomiao pointed towards a group nearby preparing for their fourth breakout attempt.
"No matter who that car is here to save, it surely won't reach us. Is the driver insane? With so many zombies, they could bury him alive!" Yuanyuan, the centaur girl, said in despair: "The zombies will soon overwhelm him. How can a single car stand against a horde of zombies?" She had seen people try to break out in cars before, but they were quickly engulfed by the dense zombies, both the people and the car swallowed whole.
While the four were talking, the armored vehicle accelerated again, this time with a very clear target: heading straight for their location!
"Look! It's really coming towards us! It seems it's actually coming for us!" Nana, the cow- headed girl, exclaimed excitedly.
"Who could it be? Who would come to save us?" Hope began to appear in Miaomiao's eyes.
"It must be Lanlan! It must be Lanlan who found help!" Qianqian, the fox girl, said firmly: "It must be Lanlan coming back to save us!"
At this moment, the people in the unfinished building also noticed the armored vehicle. The moment they saw it, they erupted into cheers.
They halted their fourth breakout plan, with everyone cheering towards the armored vehicle.
"Come save us!! We are here!!"
"Hahaha! Our reinforcements have arrived!!"
"An armored vehicle!! It's an armored vehicle! It must be the military!"
"We are saved! Hahaha! The military is here! We are definitely saved!"
"The armored vehicle must be the vanguard! There must be tanks and artillery following,
even helicopters! Hahahaha! These damned zombies are done for!"
"I've always said it, the military must still be operating. As long as we hold on, someone will definitely come to take us to a safe gathering place!"
