"Alright."
Lily Lewis agreed. She was worried, but she kept her composure.
"Since there’s no danger, let’s go together too."
Nina Jacobs said to Wayne Warner, though her words were also meant for Cole Dempsey.
"Fine. It’s safer if we all go together. Besides, your brother ate so much this morning. He should move around and digest a little."
Cole Dempsey’s words were filled with dissatisfaction.
Seeing that Wayne Warner’s expression didn’t change, Cole Dempsey’s mouth couldn’t help but twitch.
This Wayne Warner had single-handedly eaten the entire breakfast meant for all the managers.
When they finished their work and went to the small cafeteria, only scraps were left...
"Dempsey is right. Let my brother push her."
Nina Jacobs said.
She was already prepared to run at a moment’s notice.
’Only she knew what was down there.’
She couldn’t be more familiar with the situation here.
All the zombie corpses lying around were from her and Wayne Warner’s work over the past two days.
There was also a deep pit in the underground parking garage.
She had dug it to practice making traps with her Earth Element Superpower.
’The pit should be full of zombies.’
As for the man’s voice on the walkie-talkie, she had a premonition that something was definitely wrong.
’But as long as I can get out of the car, I’ll have a chance to escape.’
"He really only listens to you."
Cole Dempsey glanced at the two siblings, then also got up and exited the car.
Scott Stone and his men, meanwhile, formed a protective circle around Cole Dempsey.
Nina Jacobs gave Lily Lewis a look.
At the same time, she activated her "Five Senses Enhancement."
But in the next second, her expression changed drastically.
Watching the group walk down the slope, Nina Jacobs gradually slowed her pace, falling to the very back.
Lily Lewis seemed to sense Nina Jacobs’s tension.
She heard Nina Jacobs shout a single word in her ear: "Run!"
Then, a strong grip pulled her hand, and after stumbling for two steps, she broke into a run, following that force.
Cole Dempsey turned his head and saw the three of them sprinting away, and he immediately realized something was wrong.
His first reaction was that the Warner siblings had teamed up with Lily Lewis to trick him.
However, as terrified screams erupted from below, he knew it wasn’t that simple.
"Run! Run for your lives!
It’s fucking zombies! They’re everywhere!"
Scott Stone yelled.
With almost no hesitation, Cole Dempsey spun around and ran toward the car parked across the road.
However, Summer Warner had already gotten into that car with Wayne Warner and Lily Lewis.
Watching the three of them speed away in a cloud of dust, Cole Dempsey felt a fire of rage ignite within him.
"AHHH!!"
Horrified screams and the sound of gunfire came from behind.
A sharp knife in Nina Jacobs’s hand was pressed against the driver Ryan Lewis’s neck.
"If you don’t want to die, drive! Now!"
"What about... what about Dempsey and Stone?"
Ryan Lewis still hadn’t processed what was happening.
"I don’t know, but there are thousands of zombies behind us."
Nina Jacobs said.
"Th-thousands?"
Ryan Lewis’s eyes went wide, and he instantly slammed the gas pedal to the floor.
"Turn right at the small road ahead. I don’t care what you see, just plow through it!"
Nina Jacobs commanded.
"O-okay, AHHH!!"
The moment Ryan Lewis made the turn, he saw a horde of zombies swarming toward them.
He knew he was finished if he stopped.
So he threw caution to the wind and gunned the engine, charging straight through.
He even saw a mutated zombie chasing right behind them.
It made him not dare to stop.
After an unknown amount of time, Nina Jacobs finally let out a sigh of relief.
The system map showed that this small road was no longer severely congested.
"Are we safe now?"
Lily Lewis’s heart was still pounding.
At the same time, the feeling was incredibly exhilarating.
Looking at Summer Warner standing in front of her.
She knew she had made the right bet this time.
"Not yet."
Nina Jacobs had just clearly seen in the rearview mirror that Cole Dempsey had gotten into the car behind them and was in pursuit.
They had just vanished after turning onto this small road.
