To his death, he couldn't understand how a loser he looked down upon could succeed in a task where they, as superior elite men, failed.
"Ah!!!" The remaining three men screamed in terror and turned to flee, but it was too late. A large swarm of zombies rushed up from the stairwell, quickly overwhelming them.
Watching through the three-eyed crow, Alex's expression changed. "C-Class Zombies!" The zombie that had suddenly attacked was clearly an evolved one, different from the previously encountered bulky zombies. It was an agile type of evolved zombie. Without the bulky body and immense strength but with a slender and short frame, it was incredibly nimble. This type of zombie was even more dangerous than the bulky ones.
Alex was determined to capture this agile C-Class zombie. "Ah!!!" A terrified scream came from the rooftop of the gymnasium. Tang Jingyan and another girl in yoga attire screamed in horror. Watching their four companions being torn into pieces by zombies, the two girls were so frightened that they turned pale and collapsed to the ground.
Their screams immediately attracted the attention of two agile C-Class zombies. These zombies, as nimble as monkeys, with pallid eyes, pushed through the crowd of zombies and rushed towards the rooftop.
Alex withdrew his gaze, a slight smile curling at the corner of his mouth. He actually had to thank these foolish basketball players for not only drawing out the C-Class zombies but also leaving him with two beauties. "Yoga goddess Tang Jingyan, are you ready to unlock various positions with me?"
After speaking, Alex leaped high into the air, transforming into the swallow form, and jumped off the city wall. Upon landing, he quickly shifted into the form of a tiger or leopard, speeding through the zombie horde towards the gymnasium.
Meanwhile, at the gymnasium's rooftop iron door, two C-Class agile zombies were frantically attacking the door with their sharp claws. These zombies were significantly different from the ordinary ones, not only in their physical appearance and agility but also seemingly possessing a low level of intelligence.
The rapid clanging of metal from the door echoed, causing Tang Jingyan and the other girl to tremble with fear, cowering in a corner. At this moment, they were completely overwhelmed by terror, not even knowing what to do.
"Whimper, whimper~~~~" The girl shivering behind Tang Jingyan suddenly started crying out of fear, sobbing, "If only I had left with that man and Lin Mancha yesterday! Now, all four of them are dead, and even if those zombies don't get in, we'll starve to death here!"
"I don't want to die! Whimper, whimper~~~~"
Tang Jingyan was much calmer than the other girl. Although she was pale and shaking, she did not cry or complain. Instead, she started moving some discarded sports equipment, pushing these items in front of the door, hoping to reinforce its strength with the equipment.
"Jing Qiao! What are you doing there? Come and help! The claws of these zombies are very powerful; they've already made a hole in the door!"
Tang Jingyan, after all, was a girl, and some of the metal equipment was too heavy. Even with wheels, she still struggled to move them. "What's the use of blocking these zombies? We're still going to starve to death here!" the girl called Jing Qiao said in despair.
Tang Jingyan, with no other choice, continued to exert herself, pushing a discarded fitness machine toward the door. Her efforts indeed paid off. The iron door, under the relentless attacks of the two C-Class agile zombies, was eventually clawed open. One of the zombies stuck its head in, only to be hit back by the fitness machine Tang Jingyan had just managed to push into place. The hole was blocked again.
Angry roars came from outside the door as the two C-Class agile zombies attacked even more furiously. The recently sealed hole started to widen again under their sharp claws. The clanging of metal was incessant.
"Ah!!!" Seeing the ghastly head of a zombie poking through again, the girl who had been hiding in the corner finally cracked under the continuous stress. She crazily climbed up the drainage pipe, attempting to escape, mimicking Alex's earlier actions. However, due to her extreme nervousness and lack of strength, she only managed a few climbs before her hands slipped, and she fell to the ground below.
The fall from six or seven meters didn't kill her instantly, but the zombies that quickly surrounded her tore her apart before she even had the chance to scream.
Tang Jingyan, lying prone at the railing, watched her classmate being dismembered by the zombies and finally collapsed to the ground in defeat, tears involuntarily sliding down her cheeks. The hole in the iron door was getting bigger, and it wouldn't be long before the zombies could enter through it.
