Chapter 628: Dawn

Just as everyone was testing their firepower against the zombies outside with their firearms, the big man from before also ran back carrying an oil drum.

Seeing that everyone had already started killing zombies, he became anxious—how could this few zombies be enough to share!

He didn't run here; he approached the edge of the cage, looking at the zombies waving their hands outside, and became excited.

"Don't panic, little darlings, I'll perform a show for you: burning zombies with fire."

He raised his thick eyebrows and turned on the switch of the flamethrower. Two pillars of fire sprayed out, directly pushing the zombies next to the cage away. The adhesive fuel stained the zombies' bodies like maggots on a bone, burning for a long time without extinguishing.

Soon, the zombies near the big man were all ignited by the intense flames, and even the steel bars on the iron cage were burned red by the fire.

Ye Su looked at the big man's direction with some envy. If it weren't for the injury on his back, he would have tried this big guy. The opportunity to burn zombies with fire was indeed hard to find.

Ye Su held a shotgun in each hand, spraying at the zombies leaning against the edge of the cage. The zombies swept by were instantly turned into fragments of meat filling the sky. He wasn't afraid of the distance not being enough; the zombies were attracted one after another.

Sister Ruan Xiu, kneeling on the side, held the sniper rifle, one zombie per shot, every shot a headshot—her marksmanship was clearly not bad.

The others who had switched to assault rifles were clearly burning their barrels, the muzzle flames never stopping. It was fortunate that the AK series was time-tested and durable; if it were a more delicate family of guns, they would have jammed long ago.

Under the fierce fire, the zombies were decreasing at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the air was filled with blue smoke.

The big man who had transformed into a flamethrower warrior also ran out of ammo at this time; the fuel was consumed. He walked over with seven parts excitement and three parts regret.

At this time, without the light of the flamethrower, everyone didn't feel that the light had dimmed; clearly, dawn had arrived.

And outside the iron cage, there were only a few scattered zombies left, which were soon eliminated by everyone.

At this time, the captain also excitedly put away his bullpup rifle and came to Ye Su's side. The group of people from before had already changed more than half, after all, the recoil made people's shoulders ache.

Ye Su shook his sore wrists, and Celine hurriedly stepped forward to help Ye Su massage them. Even if Ye Su's physical fitness was high, he couldn't withstand the recoil of a shotgun for several hours.

Seeing that the zombies outside were all eliminated, Ye Su also breathed a sigh of relief. If he had known, he wouldn't have released so many zombies; it had exhausted everyone.

Ye Su had previously wandered around the base and released all the zombies from the four underground passages of the base. Now he finally tasted the bitter fruit he had planted himself.

Just then, the people who had been scratched by zombies gathered around, looking at Ye Su with hope. Even Sister Ruan Xiu, who was resting on the side, turned her head over.

Ye Su looked at the few people waiting eagerly and understood their meaning.

"There should be a laboratory equipped in this base, right? Which one of you will take me there? It looks like if I don't formulate the serum, you might turn into zombies and tear me apart."

"How could that be? If you don't formulate the serum, we might really turn into zombies."

The people bitten by zombies already had black marks on their bodies; clearly, if they didn't control it, they would really turn into zombies.

Ye Su knew that these people must be somewhat suspicious. After all, a 100% serum sounded unbelievable, so he decided to give them a reassurance.

"Don't worry, this serum is actually quite easy to formulate; it won't let you turn into zombies. We in China have a saying: 'Those who carry firewood for the masses must not let them freeze to death in the wind and snow!'

You guys follow me, wait at the laboratory door, and once I formulate the serum, I will hand it to you for use immediately!"

At this time, David walked up to lead the way for Ye Su. The people bitten by zombies all had smiles on their faces, and some even shed tears.

Even those who hadn't been bitten by zombies followed, wanting to confirm the authenticity of what Ye Su said. In the current environment, they were still suffering from the ravages of zombies. If what Ye Su said was true, it would be equivalent to having an extra guarantee.

Anthony, following behind, was still muttering: "Masses carry firewood, freeze to death!"

Sister Ruan Xiu couldn't listen anymore and spoke directly: "It is 'Those who carry firewood for the masses must not let them freeze to death in the wind and snow!'"

Anthony heard Sister Ruan Xiu's words and hurriedly raised his head to ask: "What does this sentence mean?"

Sister Ruan Xiu gave him a roll of her eyes directly.

"Literal meaning!" ===== CHAPTER 630 =====
