"Master! Look, the group from the gymnasium is charging out again!" As Alex just stepped out of the Dark Castle, Li Wan Ning hurried over, pointing towards the distant gymnasium.
Alex climbed the city walls and looked in the direction of the gymnasium. Sure enough, Shen Jiabin and three other members of the basketball team, fully armed with baseball bats, were launching another charge. Shen Jiabin and Zhuang Qiang were covered in flattened plastic bottles as makeshift armor, and wore baseball caps for protection, valiantly leading the way. The other two boys followed closely behind, swinging their bats to cover them.
Tang Jingyan and another girl stood on the rooftop, watching anxiously as the four boys charged into battle. The zombies on the third floor of the gymnasium had been cleared out by Alex, leaving not many behind. The four men quickly made their way to the second floor.
"Kill!!"
"Roar!! Come and meet your death here!" Seeing the zombies gathering on the second floor, the bloodthirsty Shen Jiabin and Zhuang Qiang let out excited roars. "Kill!!" The other two boys also roared, bolstering the team's courage.
The noise of their fight initially wasn't loud, only drawing the zombies in the corridor. But their shouts soon attracted the attention of zombies from the first floor and the square.
"Wow! That's amazing!"
"Go for it!!" The girl with Tang Jingyan also shouted excitedly. Tang Jingyan joined in, cheering them on, hoping to contribute her support.
The commotion caused by their shouting was so great that Alex saw more and more zombies converging towards the four men. "Idiots," Alex muttered coldly, knowing that their end was not far off.
Even with his formidable combat abilities, Alex would never dare to provoke so many zombies. In each battle, his strategy was quick engagement and quick retreat, always fighting while dodging. But these fools were actually shouting loudly to attract zombies, which was nothing short of seeking death.
With a thought, the three-eyed crow perched atop the Dark Castle flew towards the gymnasium. Shen Jiabin and the others, engrossed in their desperate fight, were completely unaware of the large horde of zombies beginning to converge on them. Among these zombies, there were even a few black zombies, looking bizarre like monkeys, moving swiftly through the horde.
"I told you guys! These zombies are just brainless trash! If a worthless, disabled dork can do it, there's no way we can't!" Shen Jiabin's confidence soared after successfully breaking out from the third floor to the second. Remembering how Alex moved effortlessly among the zombies, he suddenly felt these zombies were nothing to fear.
"Big Brother Bin! I know there's a small storage room in the gym on the second floor with lots of protein powder. If we can get that protein powder, it should be enough to sustain us for three or four days!" Gu Fanghua, following behind, pointed excitedly at a nearby gym and shouted. The gym was only about ten meters away from their location, and there weren't many zombies along the way.
Shen Jiabin dismissively said, "Protein powder is so hard to eat, what's the use of that? With our strength, we can totally go to the martial arts dojo on the first floor and get suitable weapons! Once we have proper weapons, will we still worry about finding food?"
Shen Jiabin's confidence was at an all-time high. What he desired most now was not food, but a suitable weapon.
Armed with weapons, he could lead his team to seek revenge on Alex! As for food, he knew there was plenty in Alex's bizarre shelter. Once they got the weapons, the four of them could easily kill Alex and take over his shelter.
"Ah!!!" Shen Jiabin roared again, ignoring the advice of the two behind him, bravely swinging his baseball bat as he charged at the zombies. "Brothers! Show your manly dominance! With courage and united will, we can be kings in this apocalypse!"
Shen Jiabin crushed the skulls of two zombies and shouted, "Zombies are not to be feared, what's fearful is the terror in our hearts! Brothers! Follow me in the fight! The Dream Team will prevail!!!!!"
"Roar!! The Dream Team will prevail!!!!!" Shen Jiabin indeed had some leadership talent. His inspiring words filled with vigor instantly boosted the courage of the other three men, who roared and howled, their morale reaching its peak.
However, in the next moment, a small, all-black, bizarre zombie suddenly leaped out from the first floor, biting fiercely into Shen Jiabin's neck at an incredible speed. Shen Jiabin's stirring cry had not yet faded when he was already dead in the jaws of the zombie.
Shen Jiabin's eyes were wide open, filled with disbelief and unwillingness.
