Chapter 117: Dawn of Hope

Inside the freezer door.

After saying "I'm sorry," the female staff member took a few steps back with red eyes.

Suddenly, she sat on the ground, covered her face, and cried softly.

The sense of self-blame for not saving her was tormenting her heart.

However, in order to survive, she, who is kind-hearted, can only go against her own heart.

"Don't be sad, your choice is correct. If we open the door now and let them in, we will also be torn apart by zombies."

The male manager of the freezer came over, knelt down, patted the female staff member on the shoulder, and spoke comforting words.

"But, wouldn't it be enough if we took the initiative to open the door of the freezer and put them in at the beginning?

At that time, the three earth walls they had built were very stable and could completely resist the zombies for a period of time.

At that time, if we opened the door, we didn't have to worry about zombies rushing in.

Therefore, the current situation is all due to my hesitation and not letting them in as soon as possible."

Female staff still feel a deep sense of guilt.

After all, she had the opportunity to save the family of three outside the door and ensure her own safety.

But because of my own fear and hesitation, I missed the perfect opportunity.

Now, if she opens the freezer door again and lets the family of three from the outer door in, she won't be able to close the heavy door in time.

When the time comes, the mutated zombies outside the door will swarm in.

There are also nine new level 1 humans in the freezer who are being promoted. Because they are in the promotion state, they are almost nine lambs waiting to be slaughtered.

Once the mutant zombies rush in, these nine new humans who can become level 2 masters in just one day will all become fresh and delicious food in the mouths of the mutant zombies.

These nine level 1 new humans will be the most important defensive force in the gathering place.

With them, it is possible to launch a counterattack against the mutated zombies.

Therefore, their life safety must not be compromised.

Outside the freezer door.

A family of three stood in a "pin" shape.

The strong husband and the beautiful wife stood side by side in front.

The three-year-old boy was sitting on the ground. He looked at the figures of his parents and listened to the strange screams of the zombies outside the earthen wall. His body could not stop shivering.

The little boy covered his ears with his palms, trying to block out the terrifying screams of the mutated zombies.

The little boy closed his eyes tightly, trying to escape from the desperate scene in front of him.

As for the little boy’s parents…

Their faces ranged from fear to anger.

Their moods ranged from despair to determination.

What they fear is the extremely powerful and numerous mutant zombies outside the earthen wall.

What makes them angry is that no matter how hard they beg, the people in the freezer won't open the door for them.

Obviously, as long as we opened the door quickly, our family of three could be saved.

What they despair about is the cold hearts of people in this apocalyptic world.

And what they are determined to do is...

Even if we die, our whole family will die together.

As long as the family stays together, they can defeat even the fear of death.

"Bang!"

A [Giant Hand Zombie] violently slapped its palms against the crumbling earth wall.

"Click~~~"

The earth wall at the front finally failed to hold up and collapsed.

Thick dust swirled in the air, and rocks of all sizes shattered all over the ground.

The three-year-old boy was so frightened that he buried his head between his legs because of the collapse of the earth wall.

Weak and helpless, he didn't know what to do. He could only hold his knees with his hands and tremble in fear.

As for the little boy’s parents—

They seemed unusually calm.

The husband asked his wife:

"Can you still release [Wrath of the Earth]?"

The wife shook her head: "I can't, I don't have a ray of spiritual energy left in my body... What about you?"

The husband turned his attention to the zombies outside the collapsed earth wall, and he replied:

"I have no energy either.

so……

We can only perish together!"

The husband tightened his grip on the baseball bat in his hand.

After listening to her husband's words, the wife's face, as pale as paper, also showed a determined expression of death.

She tightened her grip on the iron rod in her hand, and her knuckles turned white from the force.

"Hoho~~hoho~~~"

The earth wall that was in the way was finally knocked down.

The mutated zombies behind the wall seemed very excited, screaming and roaring strangely.

They open their mouths full of fangs and ooze disgusting, sticky saliva.

Their eyes glowed with bloodthirsty ferocity.

Let’s have dinner!!!

Numerous zombies, like students who had just finished class, swarmed into the "canteen" behind the earthen wall.

That family of three is the most delicious meal in the "canteen".

Since there are only three, they have to be fast.

Zombies that rushed out too late might not even be able to eat a finger, so they could only lie on the ground and lick the blood.

Therefore, these mutated zombies are extremely fast.

Although the husband and wife were ready for battle, their hands and feet were cold when faced with the mutant zombies at an alarming speed.

There's no way to fight this.

Dead.

We are dead.

I hope we will still be a family in the next life.

"Clang-Dang~Ding-Dang~"

The husband and wife looked at each other and took the initiative to drop the baseball bats and iron bars in their hands.

Forget it, I'm still too lazy to resist.

Just when this family of three was desperate...

At the critical moment when the zombies are about to "eat"...

A black ball, slightly larger than a ping pong ball, flew over quickly from a distance.

These black balls are exactly Lin Kong’s seven black balls.

Because it had just absorbed the mist droplets from more than a dozen zombies, it had grown a bit larger.

"Keep your mouth shut!"

From a distance, a powerful voice came over.

This sound was made by Lin Kong.

As the sound fell, the seven black balls suddenly vibrated——

"Buzz~~~"

Blue cold air spurted out.

The cold air centered on the seven black balls and spread rapidly to the surrounding areas.

The blue cold air is like the ripples caused by a stone thrown into a calm lake.

All objects affected by this "cold ripple" are frozen.

The effective attack range of [Seven Black Freeze] is a circle with a diameter of two meters.

Just as it happened, this circle froze all the zombies in front of the family of three into ice sculptures.

They were unable to move, standing on the ground, lying on the ground, or huddled on top of other zombies.

Moreover, these zombie ice sculptures act as a new "wall".

All the mutated zombies behind were blocked.

therefore,
Chapter completed!
