The dark age of mankind is coming

When everyone heard Zhang Ren’s shout, they quickly turned around and ran towards the roof without hesitation.

The elevator in the building had long stopped working due to lack of electricity, and the only way to climb up was by stairs.

The "dong dong dong" sound of footsteps echoed in the dark corridor, like a tense melody.

"Huff, huff..." The survivors from the village had just experienced a life-and-death test, and their physical strength was exhausted.

However, now faced with new challenges, they have to grit their teeth and persevere, supporting each other and not daring to slack off at all.

Although their bodies were close to the limit, they still moved forward tenaciously, hoping to find a safe place.

Fortunately, there were no mutated humans or animals in the building.

This made everyone feel a little relieved, but they still remained vigilant.

Finally, the door to the top floor was opened, and a breeze blew in, blowing on everyone's tired faces.

"We've reached the roof!" someone shouted.

Zhang Ren saw that everyone was exhausted, so he arranged for everyone to take a rest and recover some strength.

Yang Ziling immediately began to use her wood-related abilities.

She concentrated, feeling the plant elements around her and bringing them together.

As she thought, thick vines gradually formed, intertwined with each other, and slowly extended towards the building next to her.

Seeing this, others also came over to help.

They took out ropes and various tools and fixed the vines between the two buildings to ensure the stability of the vine bridge.

After everyone's joint efforts, a simple but strong enough vine bridge was finally built.

It spans between two buildings and becomes everyone's hope for escape.

Zhang Ren took the lead and stepped onto the vine bridge, taking every step very carefully, and finally reached the building opposite.

After inspecting the roof to make sure there was no danger, he tied the vines tighter again to ensure that the vine bridge would not break due to being unable to bear the weight.

After making sure Fujihashi was safe, Zhang Ren returned here.

"There are no zombies over there right now, so it's safe. You guys should hurry over there, and I hope the team will follow behind." Zhang Ren gestured to the survivors rescued from the village.

However, when he said this, Li Luo was unhappy: "Why should we let them go first? They are not members of Team Hope!"

Everyone knew that the zombies would soon catch up to the building, and the later they crossed the bridge, the more dangerous it would be.

Facing Li Luo's questioning, Zhang Ren patiently explained: "They currently have no ability to protect themselves, so they must leave first."

After saying this, he ignored Li Luo who was complaining on the side, and urged the survivors to quickly cross the vine bridge.

In order to ensure the stability of the vine bridge and avoid accidents, the survivors stepped onto the vine bridge one after another, not daring to be careless in the slightest.

"roar"

"boom"

"Boom"

After half of the survivors had passed, a familiar knocking sound was heard from the security door on the roof. The sound was like a death warrant, making everyone's heart rise to their throat.

The zombies finally chased to the roof.

Zhang Ren's face changed. He quickly ran to the security door and stood guard. He turned to look at the remaining people and said, "Everyone, hurry up! There's no time."

The remaining survivors also realized that the situation was critical. They sped up, wishing they could fly to the opposite building immediately.

"boom"

At this moment, the safety door finally collapsed under the heavy weight, making a dull thud.

"roar"

Zombies came like a tide, with their fangs and claws bared and their faces hideous, and they pounced madly on Zhang Ren, Ling Yingjun and Zhu Neng who were guarding the door.

Faced with the surging tide of zombies, Zhang and his two companions did not dare to relax at all. They waved their weapons and fought a desperate battle with the zombies.

However, as time went on, there were more and more zombies, and the three could no longer block the zombies at the entrance of the security gate. They could only fight and retreat, gradually moving away from the security gate.

The zombies stepped into the top floor one after another, and their numbers increased.

Suddenly, Li Luo, who was standing at the back of the team, was accidentally tripped by something, lost his balance and fell to the side.

"Ah!" Li Luo looked at the zombies in horror as they were getting closer and closer, as if they were going to catch him in the next second.

Her heartbeat quickened rapidly, and fear made it impossible for her to think.

At this critical moment, her hand involuntarily reached out to Gao Lin beside her and pushed her towards the zombies.

"Li..." Gao Lin was about to help Li Luo, but was suddenly pushed forward by Li Luo.

The weapon in her hand hit the zombie's head just right, successfully killing it.

However, because she lost balance, Gao Lin's cheek was scratched by the zombie's claws.

"Gao Lin, I, I didn't mean it." Li Luo looked at Gao Lin who fell to the ground injured, his heart filled with guilt and self-blame.

She raised the hand that had just pushed Gao Lin and explained at a loss.

But the disbelief in Gao Lin's eyes made Li Luo feel extremely ashamed and guilty.

At this moment, Li Luo just wanted to escape from this place.

So she ignored Gao Lin and turned and ran to the vine bridge.

She pushed away the last survivor who tried to step onto the vine bridge and ran across the vine bridge alone.

The survivor, who had already raised one foot, lost his balance due to Li Luo's push and almost fell down.

"Be careful!" Yang Ziling, who was guarding next to the vine bridge, quickly reached out and grabbed him, pulling him back with force.

Gao Lin didn't have time to treat her wounds. She couldn't believe that Li Luo, whom she treated like her own sister, would treat her like this.

Several members of the Hope Team also saw this scene and began to blame Li Luo: "What happened? Why did this happen!" "You harmed our companions!" "You are so selfish! You only care about yourself and not others!"

Li Luo was standing on the vine bridge. When he heard the accusations coming from behind him, his face instantly turned extremely ugly.

She knew she had made a big mistake, but there was no turning back now and she could only grit her teeth and move forward.

Li Luo staggered to the other side. She looked back, her heart filled with guilt and fear.

The survivors who crossed the bridge first and kept an eye on the situation on the other side also witnessed what had just happened.

When Li Luo came over, no one blamed her. After all, they had just been rescued by Li Luo and others.

However, everyone silently moved away from Li Luo and kept their distance from her.

Li Luo stood alone, staring at the survivors who had already crossed the river with resentment in his eyes.

She kept repeating one sentence in her mind: "It's all their and Zhang Ren's fault. If Zhang Ren hadn't asked them to come first, Gao Lin wouldn't have been scratched by the zombies."

At this moment, she was completely unaware of her mistake and instead shifted all the blame onto others.
