Chapter 319: Entering The Border City

As Zhu Lin and Xiu Wu enjoyed a simple but fulfilling dinner together, the night became deeper. After dinner, Zhu Lin glanced at the tent behind her and said, "Xiu Wu, you can go to bed first. I want to stay outside for a while."

Looking at her slightly red cheeks, Xiu Wu knew what she was thinking. He glanced at the tent, then looked at his girlfriend and said, "Lin’er, the tent is big enough for the two of us. You don’t have to sleep outside. Besides, it’s safer for us to sleep together. If anything happens, we can protect each other."

After listening to his words, Zhu Lin thought about it and felt that what he said seemed to be true. She nodded, her face blushed slightly, and she said hesitantly: "You are right."

After successfully tricking his girlfriend into sleeping together, Xiu Wu smiled and said in a good mood: "We have to leave early tomorrow. Let’s go to bed early."

After saying that, he took Zhu Lin’s soft hand and walked into the tent. Not far away, Tan Wei saw that, clicked his tongue and commented: "Tsk, Lao Xiu is really cunning. If Xiao Lin continues to follow his advice, she will be eaten clean by him sooner or later."

Sitting around the bonfire, Teng Bai, Ren Yuan, and the others all laughed when they heard this. Early the next morning, everyone woke up before dawn.

After eating a simple breakfast and drinking a glass of divine spring water, they continued on their way. The sun was just rising over the eastern horizon as they drove into the border city.

When the car drove into the suburbs, Xiu Wu sensed that there is a thick devil energy shrouding this city. He took the communication device and said, "Wu Tingguan, can you check how many zombies are around us?"

A few seconds later, Wu Tingguan, the member of Lei Zhicheng’s team, replied: "Captain Xiu, there are more than two thousand zombies in this area. The densest area is the city center. Also, there are more than one million zombies in the shopping area alone. Driving through the city center is impossible."

After listening to the report, Xiu Wu frowned and fell into deep thought while looking at the map in his hands. Judging from the number of zombies nearby, it would take a lot of time for them to clean up the zombies while moving forward. Unfortunately, if they want to go to Province B, going through this city is their only option since other roads are either blocked or destroyed.

Zhu Lin, who was sitting next to him, looked out the window and saw more and more zombies approaching them. Because the smell of humans’ flesh and blood attracts zombies, it would be dangerous for them to stay in this place for a long time.

Zhu Lin touched Xiu Wu’s arm and said, "Xiu Wu, let’s not stay here for too long. If zombies gather here, the buildings and narrow roads around us will make breaking through the zombie siege very difficult."

After hearing what she said, Xiu Wu came back from his thoughts. Seeing more and more zombies approaching, Xiu Wu made a decision and said through the communication device: "Get ready to break through the zombie encirclement. We will take a detour around the suburbs."

After receiving the order, everyone quickly got into position. Xiu Wu opened the sunroof and then stood up. He looked back and saw that Tan Wei and the others were also ready. He sent signals to them, activated his ability, and killed the zombies blocking the car.

After exploding a bunch of zombies with his space system ability, Xiu Wu glanced at the soldier who drove the military car and calmly said, "Let’s go."

The soldier nodded and stepped on the accelerator. As the first car clears the way, the rest of the cars and trucks follow.

While the supernatural beings kill all the zombies that attack them, the drivers expertly navigate the military vehicle while avoiding zombie corpses and potholes in the road. In this way, they slowly drove towards the exit on the other side of the city.

Three hours later, Zhu Lin picked up the communication device and said, "It’s time to change the shift."

After saying that, she put down the communication device and said, "Xiu Wu, you should get some rest."

Xiu Wu nodded, sat back in his seat, closed his eyes and started meditating to replenish his devil energy.

Seeing his slightly pale face, Zhu Lin took out a box of Qi berries and said, "Eating these Qi berries can restore your energy. Because of your innate strength, you cannot drink the divine spring water. These Qi berries will not conflict with your innate energy and you can eat them with confidence."

After placing the box on the seat between the two of them, Zhu Lin stood up. She leaned half of her body out of the sunroof and took out a stack of low-grade lightning element talismans. Because she was worried that the lightning would hit the vehicles behind her, she could only use the lowest-grade lightning element talisman she owned.

Low-grade talismans are different from high-grade or divine-grade talismans. As long as divine energy is continuously injected into the high-grade or divine-grade talismans, it can be used without a time limit. As for the low-grade and middle-grade talismans, it will turn into ashes after being used for a limited time.

Seeing that zombies had gathered around their car, Zhu Lin held a lightning element talisman between her index and middle fingers, and then injected her divine power into the lightning element formation drawn on the talisman.

The next second, the sky darkened, and she said, "Thunder, strike!"

Boom! Boom! Boom!

As soon as she finished speaking, more than ten thunderbolts struck the ground one after another, killing the zombies at once. When the last thunderbolt killed another batch of zombies, the lightning elemental talisman between her fingers also turned into ashes.
