Free Web NovelChapter 222: Avoid It At All Cost!
"Damn, it looks like the zombies with powers have realized our existence," Theodore said in annoyance, so annoyed that he hit the roof of the car.
Celia, who was beside Theodore, also saw it all, but she didn’t dare to ask. Honestly, this was the first time Celia had seen Theodore upset, so she didn’t want to make him even more upset and get angry about it.
Theodore turned to Celia, still with his brows furrowed, "Stay here and try to kill as many zombies as you can," Theodore said.
"Where are you going?" Celia quickly asked before Theodore left.
"I have to discuss our situation with Roxanne," Theodore replied briefly. After that, Theodore immediately got back into the car; he had to discuss this with Roxanne and Geoffrey.
Roxanne and Geoffrey were surprised to see Theodore coming down from the roof. Theodore quickly seated himself in the back seat and began to talk about the serious problems they could face later.
"Did you hear that roar?" Theodore immediately asked them this to make sure that he wasn’t the only one who heard it.
"Yes, what do you think it was?" Roxanne nodded her head, agreeing with Theodore’s question.
"I don’t know, I’m not sure either. But, most likely it’s a zombie that has power, we can’t meet with that zombie, it would be very dangerous. That’s why we have to leave this city immediately," Theodore explained later.
"It’s just that our journey is still quite long. It’s estimated to take about a day to get out of this city and that’s if we don’t stop and rest, of course without any disturbances on the road as well." This time, Geoffrey explained their next problem.
"It doesn’t matter that we can organize it like that because we can’t take the risk of facing zombies that have power. And we don’t know their exact numbers," Theodore replied, feeling that they had to leave no matter what.
Roxanne and Geoffrey nodded their heads in agreement, after which Theodore took the wheel of their car because Roxanne had been driving for too long now. Roxanne needed a break somehow.
After changing positions with Roxanne, Geoffrey was sent up to the roof to accompany Celia. Geoffrey left his tablet with Roxanne and told her to help Theodore follow their route.
"Sleep if you’re tired," Theodore said as he glanced at Roxanne, who was sitting beside him.
"I honestly can’t sleep, so you don’t have to worry." Roxanne waved her hand, refusing to rest.
It seemed that the anxiety about the current situation made Roxanne unable to sleep, even though her eyes felt heavy. Roxanne preferred to accompany Theodore driving in case she could suddenly sleep.
Theodore knew that time was running out, so he drove the car at high speed. Given that Roxanne helped him to remember the route, Theodore was able to drive efficiently.
Roxanne felt something strange because she felt that the car was shaking, even though she knew that Theodore was driving at high speed and the car was shaking a little. It was just that Roxanne felt something different this time.
"Do you feel something strange?" Roxanne glanced down at her feet and also out the window.
"There is something strange, but it seems to be just the shaking from the car and also the zombies chasing us," Theodore replied, trying to think positively.
Theodore tried to think positively at the moment. He didn’t want to think about something that could make the atmosphere between them even more tense than it currently was. It was just that no matter how Theodore thought positively, over time, he also felt the strangeness.
Not long after that, Theodore and Roxanne also heard an indistinct voice from the roof, as if Geoffrey was saying something, but they couldn’t hear it clearly because of the strong wind that hit them up there.
Roxanne, worried, started shouting at Geoffrey, "Did you say something, Geoff?" Roxanne glanced up at the roof to hear Geoffrey’s voice more clearly.
Realizing that his voice could not be heard clearly, Geoffrey got back into the car to say his words to Theodore and Roxanne.
"I saw a horde of strange zombies in the distance!" With a frightened look on his face, Geoffrey told them what he saw.
"Are you sure it wasn’t an ordinary zombie?" Roxanne wanted to confirm further because the appearance of ordinary zombies and zombies with powers were usually not significantly different.
"Yes. Their size is bigger and I also saw a strange stone on their forehead," Geoffrey replied as best he could, describing the appearance of the zombies he saw.
Geoffrey was actually confused about how to describe the zombies he saw because they were too strange for him. It was just that Geoffrey had to tell Theodore and Roxanne this critical thing, so he said the strange features he saw as much as possible.
"Those are definitely zombies with powers. Try to contain their movements, I’ll try to drive this car faster." Theodore immediately told Geoffrey to hold back the zombies.
"Celia and I have already tried it. The ice arrows can only hold them for 3 seconds, they’re too strong!" Geoffrey hurriedly explained their current situation.
"There’s no other choice but to do that and limit their movement as much as possible." Theodore shook his head. They could only do this to restrain the zombies’ movement. freёwebnovel.com
Inevitably, Geoffrey nodded his head, not forgetting Geoffrey also asked Theodore for another crossbow.
To be able to withstand the movement of the zombies, Geoffrey thought they needed an extra person to shoot the ice arrows, and he hoped Celia could help him with that.
Theodore immediately took out another crossbow from the sacred dimension and gave it to Geoffrey. He immediately went back upstairs to do what Theodore had told him to do.
"Can we hold them off? We need more of a plan than that," said Roxanne, feeling a little uneasy about their situation this time.
Actually, Roxanne had tried to keep an eye on their rearview mirror, but she had not been able to see the strange zombies Geoffrey had mentioned, which indicated that they were still quite far away.
"It’s okay, I’m sure they can contain the zombie’s movements. I’ll also make our distance as far as possible from them," Theodore replied confidently. He didn’t want to endanger his group members.
So, of course, Theodore would do anything to avoid the disaster that the zombies brought to them. For now Theodore was confident that they could still escape the zombies, it would take a long time for them to catch up.
