Chapter 1012 - 1011: I’m Really Not Afraid
At this moment, there was some commotion outside the door. Chen Tianlong quickly returned to Wu Mengting’s side and waited quietly. Wu Mengting’s hand was tightly gripping Chen Tianlong’s, and her breath was a bit rapid.
"Wu Mengting, you don’t have to be afraid, nothing will happen." Chen Tianlong comforted her when he saw her nervous look.
"Well, I... I’m just a bit nervous, that’s all." Wu Mengting, trying to show her strength, deliberately refused to admit it.
"Hehe."
Chen Tianlong didn’t say much, he just found Wu Mengting very cute.
"What’s so funny? I’m really not scared, okay!" Wu Mengting glared at Chen Tianlong and said in a slightly reproachful tone.
"Alright, you’re not scared, it’s fine."
Chen Tianlong decided not to tease her anymore, it was rare to have a moment to relax.
At that point, the door was kicked open with a "bang." These zombies have incredible strength, and these doors can’t hold them back. Several zombies appeared in front of them, quickly searching for any sign of life, sniffing the air with their sharp noses. They suddenly started moving along the wall toward Chen Tianlong and Wu Mengting.
Chen Tianlong felt something was wrong. Although these zombies couldn’t see them, they found them quickly by smell. Chen Tianlong was a bit frustrated; rushing out now would definitely mean facing a large group of zombies outside. He could manage on his own, but with Wu Mengting here, he wasn’t so sure.
Just as Chen Tianlong was deep in thought, a zombie suddenly appeared before him, opening its mouth wide to bite. Wu Mengting was startled, but fortunately, Chen Tianlong reacted quickly. He punched the zombie’s face and pulled Wu Mengting to the side to run away.
The other zombies saw the commotion and quickly surrounded them. Chen Tianlong activated his Heart Method and used Martial God Strong Kick, kicking forward and sending two zombies flying several meters away to fall to the ground. The other two zombies, seeing the situation, started to jump around crazily.
Thinking quickly, Chen Tianlong’s gaze fell on a fruit knife on the table. He dashed over, grabbed the knife, and performed two consecutive backflips, slicing directly at a zombie’s neck.
"Thud!"
The zombie’s head fell to the ground; though the scene was a bit disgusting, Wu Mengting didn’t have time to be shocked. The next moment, there was a commotion outside the door. Chen Tianlong took a closer look—my god, dozens of zombies were surrounding them.
Chen Tianlong’s gaze suddenly fell on the bathtub, thinking: "Right, these creatures came because they smelled us, so..."
With this thought, he quickly walked to Wu Mengting, grabbing her hand without saying another word, and led her to the bathtub, saying, "Mengting, quickly hide in the water."
Wu Mengting hesitated for a moment but saw that Chen Tianlong wasn’t joking. Given the tense situation, she obediently climbed in, followed by Chen Tianlong. The water was still warm, and there were many flower petals floating on the surface, giving off a fragrant smell. At this point, Chen Tianlong spoke.
"Mengting, take a deep breath. When the monsters come in, we’ll both dive underwater. This way, they won’t be able to smell us or sense our breath, and they’ll leave." Chen Tianlong worried that Wu Mengting didn’t understand the reason, and if anything went wrong, it would be a big trouble, so he explained.
Wu Mengting nodded, saying nothing more, trusting that Chen Tianlong’s approach was correct.
Sure enough, not long after, the door was kicked open. At this point, Chen Tianlong gave Wu Mengting a look, and the two took a deep breath and submerged underwater.
At this time, more than a dozen zombies entered, searching everywhere, as they had sensed a scent in the room earlier, so they continued looking. But they searched everywhere and still found no signs of life.
Suddenly, a zombie noticed the bathtub, and a few zombies gathered around, peering inside.
They had been underwater for over twenty seconds, and Wu Mengting was beginning to struggle, but the zombies were still searching above. Another ten seconds passed, and Wu Mengting finally couldn’t hold it anymore, letting out a breath with a "bloop," creating bubbles on the water surface.
At this moment, the zombies immediately noticed, looked into the basin, but couldn’t see anything because the petals obscured the view. A zombie casually pawed around in the water but caught nothing.
Wu Mengting truly couldn’t hold on any longer, just as she was about to raise her head out of the water when suddenly Chen Tianlong grabbed her, his mouth pressing tightly against hers.
Wu Mengting was momentarily stunned, then understood Chen Tianlong’s intention. It was a subtle feeling, simultaneously shy and nervous. This wasn’t their first kiss, but every time she got close like this to Chen Tianlong, Wu Mengting felt an attachment.
The two continued kissing, sharing each other’s breath. Who knows how long passed, but it seemed quiet above now, and the two slowly emerged from the water.
After taking a deep breath, Wu Mengting’s face was flushed red, and Chen Tianlong knew she was embarrassed, so he quickly changed the subject.
"Mengting, it seems they’ve all left. We’re safe now." Chen Tianlong looked around, noticing no movement.
"Hmm."
Wu Mengting was still feeling shy, so she didn’t say much, just softly muttering a response.
Getting up, they were both soaked, and Wu Mengting couldn’t help but sneeze. Chen Tianlong looked around and found a wardrobe in the corner. Inside were some bathrobes.
At this point, Chen Tianlong didn’t bother with formalities, stepped behind a screen, and started changing clothes.
Soon, the two emerged in bathrobes.
Though it might be strange to run out onto the street in bathrobes later, it was unavoidable.
After calming their emotions a bit, Chen Tianlong grabbed Wu Mengting’s hand and started to cautiously head out the door...
On another street.
Lin Wushuang and her team went out for dinner, just as they took a few bites, they heard screams outside, and the restaurant suddenly lost power. The six were surprised and went out onto the street, discovering zombies everywhere.
A group of zombies came rampaging towards them, and in an instant, they were surrounded.
"Everyone, be careful, stick close to us later. Xiaoyu and I will take the lead, and we’ll rush to the hotel together to find Chen Tianlong and the others." Shen Yan, being the most powerful, naturally took on the role of the leader, very seriously speaking to everyone.
The group nodded knowingly, sticking tightly to the back, forming two teams, one cutting ahead, the other covering the rear. Soon, they carved out a path.
Though they say "killing," it’s not accurate—it’s more like clearing a path, as these zombies are like indestructible Xiaoqiangs, reviving after a while to attack again.
So during this time, they must escape swiftly.
With the efforts of the six, they finally broke through the encirclement of a wave of zombies, breathing a sigh of relief. But soon, they saw a huge creature drop from the sky, landing right in front of them—it was the Zombie King, Kong Fan.
