chapter 22: chapter 22: gate 19"do you think she will escape from the hordes of zombies following her? and did you forget why we chose gate 19? even though the zombies at gate 19 are fewer, it doesn't mean there are no zombies. on the contrary, once you leave gate 19, you will soon realize that the surrounding has more zombies than other areas." li yuan explained. "so that means she would die for sure?" xiao cui asked. "not until a miracle happens." li yuan said with a smile. "don't worry my energy will stay on for the entire day. even if she wants she won't be able to escape from the zombies." gao michen patted his chest. li yuan smirked and muttered, "i hope you become a zombie jiyai. you are beautiful...and that is the reason for your downfall." then she took out her phone and called someone, "hello? yeah, the work is done. it's time to create evidence." ... su jiayi ran when she realized more and more zombies were starting to chase her. she made her way toward gate 18, where the most powerful superhumans were present however the path was obstructed. su jiyai noticed all the paths that could lead back to the military were blocked. sweat formed on su jiyai's forehead. is she going to die? su jiyai didn't know. she didn't even know where she was running to. she was only following her instinct. but it was clear that her instincts were wrong because more and more zombies could be seen in the direction she was running. more than 500 zombies were chasing su jiyai. to say she wasn't frightened would be an understatement. ..... qin feng who was travelling with his superiors, suddenly felt a strange kind of anxiety in his heart. he placed his hand on his heart and muttered, "what is happening?" he looked around thinking someone was playing tricks on him but didn't find anyone. was he thinking too much? or did something happen to his close one? wait. is su jiyai okay? qin feng's heart skipped a beat. he instantly called in the army camp. when the call was connected, he asked his subordinate, "where is jiyai?" "reporting to captain, she is stationed at gate 19." "why there?" qin feng instantly felt wary. searᴄh the novelfire.net* website on google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. "reporting to captain, a few more superpower users have completed their training and are getting trained in the area where miss su and other soldiers used to patrol. so miss su has been shifted to other areas." qin feng knew that it was one of the common scenarios in the army and finally gave up. "okay. when she returns, inform me." "alright, captain!" the subordinate said. in his heart, he couldn't help but wonder, whether his captain has fallen for miss su. was this the reason why his captain was opposing the engagement proposal? once the call hung up, qin feng felt regret in his heart. if only...if only he had given her an answer... he wanted to hug her, kiss her, and even tell her that he had slowly fallen in love with her... however, the circumstances involving her were very complex, so he first wanted to clear it up and then propose to su jiyai. he patted his heart and muttered, "it's alright, soon she will be mine." a small smile appeared on qin feng's face. his eyes turned a bit dreamy as he thought about the future he was going to share with her. he made a firm decision in his heart to give su jiyai an answer for now and ask her to wait for him. qin feng didn't know that soon, su jiyai would never return army. for a long time, he would regret, not asking her to wait. ... su jiyai too was thinking about qin feng. if only...if only she could have hugged him. there was also han weilin... su jiyai regretted not writing any last letter to han weilin. she would soon die. and it was sure that her dead body would never return to the army. she might even end up becoming a zombie. she was abandoned by her parents, yet she tried to live her life. she was abused and tortured by her foster parents, yet she strived to live every day. even when her foster parents kicked her out, she didn't shed a single tear. the life in army was difficult but she never gave up. her foster parents ruined her reputation in the army, but even then su jiyai didn't give up. however, today su jiyai felt like crying. why was life so hard? when her hard work had finally paid off, things were turning stable, and soon she might have a boyfriend who loved her, everything was snatched away from her. did god hate her so much? a tear formed in her eyes and su jiyai cursed, "why? why? why do you make my life hell time and time again? am i so unlovable? why don't just for once you make my life easy... i hate you! i hate you!" su jiyai cried as she ran. she was feeling vulnerable at that moment. life is unfair. su jiyai understood it at that moment. she never complained, was hardworking, and always tried to look at every situation from a different perspective, but was the result of all those efforts? death. more and more zombies started to flock around su jiyai. su jiyai didn't even need to think, she was sure that at least 1000 zombies were flocking behind her and would soon catch up to her. for a moment su jiyai thought of stopping and throwing herself into the hordes of zombies and becoming a zombie. it's better if she dies. anyway, she doesn't have any good future considering how bad her luck is. despair wasn't the only negative emotion su jiyai was feeling. she started to even doubt whether qin feng's answer would be a yes or not. no! what was she thinking? she doesn't know his answer and she can't die without knowing it. she has to live! she has to know it! "please...please help! somebody, please help." su jiyai shouted. but in the vast land, other su jiyai and zombies, there was no help. "brother feng! sister weilin! please help!" su jiyai's tone was filled with begging. tears kept streaming down her cheeks. suddenly some more zombies started to flock from the front and su jiyai fought with them to make a way for herself. till now only level 1 zombies were flocking to su jiyai hence she was still safe. however, seeing the level 2 zombies joining the force, a chill ran down her spine. the level 2 zombies were faster, stronger, and more cunning than the ones she had been battling so far. su jiayi scanned her surroundings, searching for anything that could give her an advantage. she noticed a narrow alleyway to her left, partially blocked by debris but still passable. it was a risky move, but it might slow the zombies down. she sprinted towards the alleyway, leaping over the debris and squeezing through the narrow passage. the walls were close, scraping against her shoulders, but the confined space worked in her favor as it forced the zombies to slow down and come at her one by one. panting and sweating, su jiayi emerged on the other side of the alley into a small courtyard. for a brief moment, su jiyai thought that she was finally safe. but that hope was quickly dashed when she saw more zombies pouring in from the other side. she was surrounded again. desperation clawed at her, but she refused to let it consume her. she looked up and saw a fire escape ladder on the side of a building. it was a long shot, but it was her only shot. she ran towards it, jumping up to grab the lowest rung and pulling herself up with every ounce of strength she had left. as she climbed, the zombies reached the base of the ladder, their rotting hands grasping at her feet. she kicked at them, her boots making contact with decaying flesh, and kept climbing. when she reached the rooftop, she collapsed, gasping for breath. the rooftop was relatively safe, but she knew it was only temporary. she had to keep moving, find a way to signal for help, or at least find a place to hide until she could come up with a better plan. su jiyai took a deep breath and rested for a while. her heart was pounding. she looked around warily and surveyed her surroundings. she was trying to find if there was any army camp nearby. however other than a metallic blue color shaped square, su jiyai didn't find anything. su jiyai knew about the square. in fact, it wasn't a square. it was a 5000 sq ft area surrounded by large metallic blue walls that emitted electricity whenever someone dared to go near it. what was even more amazing, was that it was the only place, zombies couldn't go near to.
