nLi Ran seemed to have changed into a completely different person.
nLin Ke could not believe what she had just witnessed. Although she had always thought that Li Ran was no ordinary woman, she did not expect her to go so far. It was truly shocking.
n

nLi Ran then rushed to aid the other civilians.
nSoldiers carrying guns were surrounding the area. They began killing the zombies and anyone who was wounded.
nFor some reason, zombies kept pouring in. They showed up at different times. Just as one horde was eliminated, another would pop out.
nLi Ran noticed the unusual situation and was confused.
n
n
n“Did the zombies climb up the walls to get in?”
nUpon hearing that, Lin Ke looked at the thick walls and shook her head, “That’s impossible. Zombies can’t climb, can they? If they could, we would have been doomed a long time ago.”
nIt was indeed very strange.
nLi Ran really wanted to find out what was going on. Normally, if she faced any danger, she would just go into the mysterious space to avoid it. She did not have to worry about anything.
n
n
n“Lin Ke, come with me.”
nThere was no point in just standing around.
nShe managed to find one of the soldiers who was tasked to follow her and instructed, “Lead her to the plane. When you take off, have a look at the situation outside.”
nThe soldier looked at Li Ran and nodded.
n“Alright, but you should go too.”
n“No. I have something else to do.”
n
n
nLi Ran refused almost immediately.
nLin Ke protested after hearing that.
n“You can see it for yourself. It’s too dangerous to stay here. Li Ran, just come with me. The military will handle things here.”
nShe was very worried about Li Ran.
nHowever, Li Ran could not leave just because she wanted to. People would lose their lives! She looked around and everyone was trembling in fear. Then, she shook her head and said, “I have to do something. Otherwise, we’ll lose this safety base and we can’t afford that. A breach is just a small matter. We can still stop it.”
nAmmunition was limited.
nZombies were everywhere in Shanghai.
nFortunately, the safety base they were in was close to the suburbs. The population was relatively sparse. If it was in the center of the city, this place would have fallen a long time ago.
n
n
n“Li Ran, why are you doing this alone? I’ll go with you! I can also bring a friend whom I’ve met earlier. He’s a little introverted but his eyes are very sharp. He can see a very long distance.”
nThe young man who had tried to strike a deal with Li Ran earlier reappeared after he noticed that the situation was under control.
nHe definitely would not give up on the opportunity to be on Li Ran’s side and tried to approach her again. His long-term safety was on the line.
nThe soldiers also denied Li Ran’s request. They would not let her re-enter the place.
nLi Ran was trying to come up with a good excuse to gain entrance when suddenly, a group of zombies appeared from the other side.
nThey moved very quickly and were rushing towards the civilians.
nThe zombies were each carrying an opaque bag on their backs. Due to the color, the contents of the bag could not be seen.
nHowever, there were some bags that were made out of transparent plastic.
nUpon closer look, there was mineral water and bread in them!
nThe soldiers were the first ones to notice this bizarre circumstance. They killed a few zombies and picked up the bags. A few people noticed the bags as well and tried to get a closer look due to curiosity.
nThey instantly saw the contents.
n“What? Is that food? There’s food!”
nNo one knew who shouted but did not dare to approach the soldiers recklessly. They stood close by and tried to resist their hunger with all their might.
