BXBX NOVEL Chapter 163: 152, the carriage must be full of supplies_3
More skeletons were protecting the truck, with absolutely no room to move.
The fight gradually came to an end.
The area grew quiet again.
All the skeletons stood in place, going into standby mode.
“Clean up the battlefield, move all the corpses to the side of the road,” Wu Heng continued.
The skeletons began cleaning the battlefield.
They retrieved the thrown rebar spears and threw the corpses to the side of the road.
They also had to deal with the wrecked cars blocking the middle of the road.
Once everything was dealt with, they proceeded on their journey.
…
The team progressed slowly, killing zombies as they moved.
The rate of advance was slower than expected.
They had to deal with small waves of zombies and road-blockages from wrecked cars, slowing them down significantly.
Two o’clock in the afternoon.
The team was getting close to the Changying Area.
Several distinctive tall buildings could be seen in the distance.
“Speed up the advance…”
Just as Wu Heng was about to issue the command.
Suddenly, a black SUV burst out of a side road and came onto the main road.
The car was speeding.
Just after it appeared, the vast skeleton army was spotted directly in its path.
Squeak~!
A sharp braking sound echoed.
The car began to sway violently, making a sharp turn and creating a loud crash against a lamppost on the side of the road.
The violent impact shattered the glass on the lamppost, causing it to rain down on the car.
The passenger in the front seat was half hanging out of the car body.
The driver’s airbag inflated, and the person was severely injured.
Immediately afterward, the individual in the passenger seat started to turn into a zombie. After breaking the windshield, he lurched back into the car, killing the driver.
Wu Heng and Li Yahong, with widened eyes, watched as this scene unfolded.
Everything happened too suddenly.
There wasn’t even enough time to react.
Before they could respond, another vehicle, a minivan, darted out from the same side road.
Squeak~!
Faced with the skeleton army, the driver slammed on the brakes, leaving four distinct tire marks on the road.
The minivan attempted to reverse and drive in the other direction.
The roar and wails of a large group of zombies could be heard from behind.
The large zombie horde appeared on the main road following the minivan.
The minivan and the SUV, now emitting black smoke, were stuck between the two armies. Unable to advance or retreat.
“These must be survivors trying to escape,” Li Yahong commented.
Wu Heng nodded, “Their driving skills are rather poor.”
The cars weren’t modified, not even the minivan which only had newspapers glued to the windows.
Not everyone is capable of modifying cars.
“What do we do now? Those people seem to be frozen, they’re not moving the car.” Li Yahong brought up.
Wu Heng peered through the iron-bar gaps in the window to get a look outside.
He then turned towards Big Head Skeleton and said, “Prepare to throw the spears.”
Clatter!
The skeleton army immediately prepared to throw their spears.
“Throw!”
Whistle~!
The sound of spears slicing through the air filled the atmosphere once more.
Masses of rebar spears rained down from the sky.
They clattered upon the asphalt road while zombies fell en masse with them.
“Kitchen Knife Skeleton, attack!”
Whoosh!
Kitchen Knife Skeleton came out of the formation and charged towards the zombies.
The zombie horde met the charging skeleton in a clash.
…
Inside the minivan.
A few people watched in fright as the battle unfolded around them.
The entire vehicle rocked back and forth from the impact, and sounds of treading echoed from the roof.
It seemed someone was fighting on the top of the car.
“Boss Chen, these skeletons, they don’t seem to be attacking us,” one of them said.
Since the skeletons were closer to them, they could easily be overwhelmed if attacked.
But it didn’t seem like the skeletons were attacking them.
“What the hell are these things.”
The man named Boss Chen cursed.
“Look, in the middle of the skeletons, there’s a modified military truck. This must be the Superpowered Man mentioned on the radio. They drove such a truck and broke through the zombie horde.”
“There must be supplies in the back of the truck. Damn it, if only we can get some, joining any base would be worthwhile.”
Boss Chen lowered his head, following their gaze towards the truck.
Hesitation crossed his eyes.
…
The battle ended quickly.
All the zombies were killed. The scattered skeletons stood still, motionless as statues.
“Go have a talk with those people, be careful. Basen, go with her,” after thinking for a moment, Wu Heng continued.
“Okay!” Li Yahong tightened her protective gear and jumped off the truck.
Basen and a few other skeletons followed behind her, heading for the minivan.
Clang clang clang~!
Li Yahong knocked on the car door lightly, “Open the door, I’m also a survivor.”
The car door behind her opened a crack.
Swish~!
All of a sudden, a short spear with a fruit knife tied to it shot out from the door’s gap, aimed straight at Li Yahong’s throat.
