Chapter 61

Tracy looked at the hellish scene in front of her with widened eyes, ignoring the walkie-talkie in her hand. She lifted the rifle and turned to rush towards the staircase, clearly intending to hurry over and help.

"Don't go, you'll die!"

Wifred noticed Tracy's situation in advance and blocked her way before she could leave. From their interaction earlier, he could already guess what kind of person she was. Seeing her expression now, he could roughly guess her thoughts.

He had a favorable impression of this passionate person and naturally didn't want her to take risks. He quickly reassured her, "Calm down! Don't act rashly. All the infected have rushed out. Didn't you see the soldiers have already fled? You're alone, going over there will just be throwing your life away!"

But Tracy's mind had been clouded by urgency long ago. She couldn't listen to what others were saying. Facing the person blocking her way with determination, she shouted, "Get out of my way!"

Seeing Wilfred had no intention of backing down, and even seemed to be raising his weapon, she intended to force him aside.

"What are you doing?"

Anna, seeing the situation, immediately raised her gun, aiming at Tracy. Although Tracy had helped her, if her father's safety was threatened, she wouldn't hesitate.

"Anna, put the gun down." Seeing his daughter's action, Wilfred quickly raised his hand to stop her.

Then he looked into Tracy's eyes again and calmly said, "Although I don't know where so many infected came from, they have all come out now. Didn't you see the soldiers have all fled? You going alone won't make any difference, it's just suicide. You need to think it over..."

At this moment, Tracy also realized that she had been impulsive earlier. But her determination hadn't changed. She said, "Even if we can't change the situation, I must bring the commander out!"

"Look!"

Just as Tracy finished speaking, Allen, who had been observing the situation outside, pointed outside the window and exclaimed loudly.

Everyone turned their gaze towards the direction of the convoy outside, only to see a truck loaded with supplies suddenly rushing forward from behind the convoy, ignoring the people and infected in front of it, and directly running over them.

But when the truck rushed into the crowd of infected, its speed suddenly stopped. The driver, however, desperately stepped on the gas pedal and barely managed to drive the truck to the entrance of the hospital.

However, by this time, countless infected had climbed onto the truck, wildly banging on the doors and windows, trying to grab the humans inside.

"Boom!"

Just as the truck stopped, it seemed like something had detonated inside it. There was a flash of white light, accompanied by a violent explosion. All the infected around the truck were blown away, and corpses and blood flew in the air. The explosion's flames soared into the sky, leaving a huge crater on the ground. The person on the truck directly detonated the grenades and ammunition on the supply truck.

The hospital's wall collapsed with a loud rumble, leaving a huge gap. The explosion not only destroyed all the infected near the truck but also knocked down the ones further away, greatly slowing their pace and giving the convoy enough time to escape.

In this moment, the first dozen or so trucks at the front of the convoy suddenly turned sharply and squeezed onto the pedestrian walkway, breaking free from the encirclement of the infected, and speeding towards the direction of the highway they had come from, without any intention of stopping even when passing through the crowd.

Looking at the truck at the forefront, with the American flag planted on it, which was the commander's vehicle, everyone knew without guessing that the explosion just now was to cover the retreat of these vehicles.

The sudden explosion caught everyone in the restaurant off guard. For a moment, they all stood still, but Bryan quickly regained his senses and shouted to the people around him, "Let's take this opportunity to leave!"

Then he said to Tracy, "You saw it just now, the convoy commander has already retreated. Don't rush in foolishly. Let's go together!"

Tracy was silent for a moment, looked at the chaotic scene outside the window, tightened her grip on the gun, her eyes dimmed, and said softly, "I understand. Let's evacuate from here first."

Seeing this, Bryan felt relieved inwardly. They had too many women and children in their group, and in certain situations, they would be the primary targets. With the addition of this soldier, they could still exert some intimidation with her soldier uniform.

"Then let's go!"
