Free Web NovelChapter 166: Out There
Everyone inside the building held their breath as they watched the hordes of zombies relentlessly run past their building. It could be clearly seen that there were a lot of them.
"How can there be this many zombies out there?" Madeline was astonished that there weren’t this many zombies in City A before.
Moreover, they were on the border between the suburbs and the city center. Already were already being killed because many people were leaving that provided goods that humans needed at the moment.
"I don’t know what’s going on right now either. But it looks like someone from outside the city came here and brought these zombies here," Theodore replied, saying the possibility that could happen.
"That might be the case. Lately, the leaders of this country have been giving directions for the people out there to evacuate to a base near their location." This time, Madeline said something that not many people knew.
"No wonder there are more zombies nowadays."
"Is this the reason the military wants to expand the base?" Theodore also recalled Victor’s previous words about this matter.
"One of them is that the new people coming in will likely be placed outside the current walls. The base will expand their parameters and soon build a new wall," Madeline said, nodding her head while observing the situation outside.
"Looks like we’re going to be trapped in this place for a while," Theodore finally said after seeing how many zombies there were in city A. freewebnovel.cσ๓
From the zombies that passed by the bank alone, Theodore could roughly guess that there were more than 1000 zombies. This wavetheres was happening in all areas. This, so he could think that more than tens of thousands of new zombies entered the city.
"Alright guys we better rest while we can. Because we will be busy if something bad suddenly happens," explained Madeline, immediately telling the others to sleep and rest.
Since their hiding place was quite safe this time and there were no more zombies in the building, they decided that a guard was unnecessary, and everyone could rest.
Theodore didn’t mind because he was exhausted after what happened in the basement. So Theodore let everyone sleep behind the barricade that they made.
Soon, everyone was able to rest peacefully. Finally, they can rest properly after these few days. They could only sleep in the car, alternating periodically because they couldn’t stop.
. . .
While everyone was resting peacefully, Neville, who had a sharp hearing, suddenly woke up with an uncomfortable buzzing in his ears. He tried to focus on his hearing when he woke from his sleep.
And what was Neville’s surprise when he peeked out from the gap in the barricade they had created? The next moment, Neville found that about 10 people were banging on the large glass window of the building in which they were hiding.
Not only that, they also tried to get into this building, but unfortunately, the entrance had exceptional security, so they couldn’t get in. And behind them, many zombies were chasing them.
Frightened by the scene, Neville immediately woke up the person who was nearby at the time, and it turned out to be Theodore. Neville himself didn’t even know who he woke up because he was in shock at the moment.
Theodore immediately woke up,,, and frowned in confusion when he realized Neville had woken him up; he. He; he could see Neville’s pale face,,, so he quickly asked him.
"Why is your face so pale?" Theodore was quickly alerted because something must have been wrong if Neville had been scared and his face had turned deathly pale like this.
"Look outside. They’re being chased by zombies and trying to get into this place," Neville said fearfully, his body trembling as he said it.
Theodore immediately turned his head towards the outside, and what Neville had said really happened. Theodore wasn’t worried about them trying to open the door;; he was just worried about whether they were thinking of breaking the glass.
If they did that, it would get Theodore and the others into trouble because many zombies were chasing them. Because of that concern, Theodore began to tell Neville to help him wake up the others.
Neville chose to wake Chelsea and Cassian, while Theodore woke Madeline and his four men. After everyone woke up, they were surprised when they looked outside.
"We have to do something, otherwise they’ll think of breaking the glass," Theodore said, then expressed his concern.
"I can coat the glass with metal, at least even if the glass breaks there will still be metal to act as a barrier," Cassian argued.
"That would be great. But we won’t be able to monitor what’s going on out there," Madeline replied, thinking about the matter.
"We can go up to the second floor if we want to monitor what’s going on outside. At least for now, we need to increase security for this building," Theodore said later. He. He was apprehensive right now.
Especially when they heard the 10 people outside start hitting the glass window hard, hoping they could break it so they could escape into the building.
Eventually, they agreed to let Cassian coat the entire large glass window in front with metal. Cassian quickly did so, but it took him a while to coat all the glass with metal.
As they watched Cassian finish his work, everyone breathed a sigh of relief; at least they were now safe.
Although Nevill,eAlthough Neville was worried about the state of the people out there, he couldn’t his own group in danger. He was just very uncomfortable because he could still hear their movements.
Neville silently covered his ears because he did not intend to hear the pain felt by the 10 people out there who seemed to have been attacked by the zombies chasing them.
On the other hand, Madeline ordered all her men to go upstairs to monitor the situation outside.
While Theodore himself could see what Neville was doing, he could already guess what happened to the boy. Feeling quite sorry for him, Theodore tapped him lightly on the shoulder.
lle was startled when he felt someone touch him, so. Heimmediately looked up to see who was approaching him.
"Come, accompany me downstairs there is something I want to take," Theodore told Neville to follow him downstairs.
Although Neville didn’t know why Theodore asked him, he complied and went downstairs with Theodore.
If you’re wondering why Theodore went downstairs, he intended to find which crystal fell from the previous zombie. He knew that there were many zombies who had powers before, so they must have dropped which crystal.
