The Last Plant Controller

Chapter 5 National Highway 168

“Tick!”

The car door lock automatically opened after sensing the signal from the sensor on the car key. Lin Chen quickly opened the door and got in to start the car.

Having escaped from a crisis that he thought was certain to end, Lin Chen was really excited. His hands were shaking uncontrollably, so that he failed to insert the car key three times in a row, and he almost dropped the key on the ground. Seeing that the zombies around were about to surround him, with the performance of the Bluebird, Lin Chen didn’t think he could rush out smoothly!

“Must insert it!” Lin Chen shouted in his heart.

Finally, on the fourth time, he successfully inserted the key and started the engine...

The roaring engine sounded, and soon attracted the attention of more zombies. Lin Chen quickly backed out of the parking space, then stepped on the accelerator and slowly increased the speed of the car while taking advantage of the only gap. Soon, the car quickly drove away from the parking area under his careful driving, leaving the zombies far behind.

Although he had never driven the Fatty's Bluebird before and had not taken the driver's license test, Lin Chen still succeeded!

"Bang!"

A zombie blocked the way ahead without knowing whether to live or die. Lin Chen had no time to avoid it, so he simply stepped on the accelerator to the bottom. The Bluebird accelerated and hit it like an arrow. Although the zombies became stronger after death, their bodies became more fragile. The zombie blocking the road was knocked away by Lin Chen's Bluebird and then crushed under the wheels. The car body only vibrated slightly, and then it sped down the lane.

The sticky red and black blood plasma and body fragments sprayed and covered most of the windshield, which looked extremely disgusting.

Lin Chen had to turn on the wipers to clean them up.

Haiyue Building is located within the second ring road of Songyang, which is basically a prosperous place in the city. If you want to escape to the suburbs, you can't go to Zhongping Road with poor road conditions. There was a traffic jam before Lin Chen came to work. Now that the biochemical crisis has occurred, it must be even more chaotic there.

There was only one way left, which was to run east from Haiyue Building and then turn to National Highway 168 to leave the city.

This should be the best route that Lin Chen could think of in a short period of time.

All the way east, the road conditions were not good, there were zombies and crashed cars everywhere, the streets were filled with smoke, and many places were on fire. Occasionally there were survivors who escaped by chance, and those who were smart enough to get a car were fine, but almost none of those who ran out on foot were lucky enough to leave the city.   The zombies that originally only existed in movies seemed to be omnipresent hunters, harvesting human lives everywhere.

Countless bloody scenes filled the entire city, turning Songyang into a complete hell on earth!

"Fuck! Where did so many monsters come from?"

"Help, don't come over!"

"Wife, go first, I'll fight them!"

Lin Chen, who had witnessed several tragedies, wanted to stop the car for rescue, but the zombies nearby never stopped. In addition, he was worried that the people being rescued might be infected by zombies, so he hesitated in the car and finally chose to ignore those people. The only thing he could do was to speed up the Bluebird so that he would see fewer tragedies.

Then again, such a chaotic world is actually a kind of survival of the fittest. Those who can survive are either lucky or smart enough. Those who rush out without thinking can only blame themselves for being stupid if they die.

"Well, why is the sky dark?"

Confused, Lin Chen glanced and found that the originally clear sky had slowly darkened at some point.

It stands to reason that it rained last night, and there should be good weather in the next two days. But this morning, it was still very good weather, but it suddenly became dark. Thick lead-gray clouds piled up, and even Lin Chen, who was sitting in the car, could feel the faint depression.

Perhaps, God doesn't want to see the miserable scene in the world now.

"It seems a little wrong..."

Because the road conditions have always been bad, Lin Chen's attention has been on driving since he got in the car. But just now, when the clouds covered the sun, Lin Chen suddenly felt uncomfortable in his body.

After slowing down the car a little, Lin Chen frowned and felt it, and suddenly found that this feeling was related to the mysterious energy that appeared in his body. In order to escape from the building, Lin Chen almost consumed all the energy in his body. On the way just now, those energies had been restored a little, but with the appearance of the clouds, the recovery speed suddenly slowed down greatly. This must be the source of the discomfort.

Why is this happening? Lin Chen is eager to know the answer!

"You are the chosen one!"

"A little gift for you!"

Those words in the dark once again echoed in Lin Chen's ears, making him a little absent-minded for a moment.

He re-examined the massive amount of information that was poured into his mind at that time, and two key words quickly emerged: sunshine, plant control master!

"Oops!"

Facts have once again proved that distraction while driving is absolutely dangerous. In addition, there was a fire in a house nearby, and the thick smoke from the burning caused a sharp drop in visibility. Before Lin Chen could figure out what those words meant, he suddenly realized that he had carelessly ignored the overturned pickup truck blocking his way.

There was less than 20 meters left!

Lin Chen, who was a little panicked, stepped on the brakes and slammed the steering wheel. His unskilled driving skills prevented him from handling the accident in time. The pickup truck avoided it, but his own car lost control and crashed into the guardrail on the roadside. Fortunately, the airbag popped out in time, and the strange energy that had just recovered in his body also protected his body spontaneously. Lin Chen was lucky not to be injured, but he was inevitably a little scared.

The front bumper of the 80% new Bluebird was almost deformed under the impact, and the left rearview mirror was completely broken.

On weekdays, such a small car accident would definitely cause a lot of trouble. But now is a critical moment, no one cares at all, and Lin Chen can't care so much.

After hastily removing the airbag, he reversed in a hurry and then accelerated.

Maybe Lin Chen was lucky today. He finally got the car running again before the nearby zombies came over, but it was a pity for this car with good configuration.

Before the biochemical disaster, Fatty Du treasured his car very much, and would not lend it to others easily. If he knew that his car was driven by Lin Chen in this way, he would be heartbroken. But now that the world has become like this, Lin Chen is not afraid that the fat man who has become a zombie will come back to life and cause trouble for him.

After the false alarm, Lin Chen set out on the road to escape again.

There were no more accidents on the road, and about ten minutes later, Lin Chen finally saw the national highway. However, the closer he got there, the heavier his heart became.

After the biochemical disaster, a large number of survivors rushed into the national highway with the idea of ​​escaping the city, which turned it into a zombie-stricken area. On the neat lanes, long queues of vehicles collided and squeezed each other, and broken glass shards and scattered parts of the car were scattered everywhere. Broken limbs and fragments can be seen on the road from time to time, and it is not known whether they were caused by car accidents or the result of zombies eating.

On both sides of the crowded lanes, there were shrill screams from a corner from time to time. Each sound represents the death of a person, and Lin Chen's heart trembled when he heard it.

It has only been half a day since the crisis broke out!

Thinking that he might live in such a world forever in the future, Lin Chen felt that this was simply a living torture. However, before sighing, he first had to face an embarrassing problem: the Bluebird was running out of gas. It seems that the fat man was lazy when he went to work in the morning and forgot to refuel the car.

Looking up and looking out of the car window, Lin Chen found that he had just driven out of the third ring road.

There are many residential areas and factories nearby, and there is a university town not far away. The number of zombies is obvious. Although he has not yet determined where to go, this is obviously not a good place to go, and he must go further out!

In this case, finding a place to refuel is an urgent matter.

However, some things are harder to find the more urgent they are. Seeing that the pointer of the car's oil gauge is slowly reaching the edge of exhaustion, Lin Chen really can't sit still. If he can't find a gas station again, he can only consider taking the risk of drawing some emergency from the cars piled up on the national highway. But it would be very dangerous to do so. The zombies wandering around would surely be happy to give him a warm welcome.

"Got it!"

After Lin Chen's anxious search, he saw a small gas station at the fork in the road ahead, about 70 to 80 meters away from the national highway. The area around the small gas station was quite empty, with only five or six cars parked there, and there were not many zombies nearby.

At this distance, if he moved quickly, it should be safe.

Lin Chen glanced left and right, slowly turned off the national highway, and slowed down the car at the same time.

"Beep! Beep!"

Before approaching the gas station, Lin Chen honked the horn twice, and then waited in the car for a while. After confirming that there were only three or four scattered staff members who turned into zombies in the gas station, he was relieved, drove the car to knock them to the ground one by one, and then crushed them twice without hesitation. As for the poor Bluebird, which was used as a bulldozer, Lin Chen didn't feel sorry at all - what if it was scratched dozens of times? Anyway, it's not his, even if it breaks down, he can still find something else to use along the way...

If this Bluebird that met the wrong person could think, it must miss the fat man now, although the fat man is indeed a bit heavy.

After parking the car again, Lin Chen quickly jumped down and picked up the gas pump to refuel his car. There happened to be two smaller lubricating oil barrels next to it. Based on the principle of not wasting, he simply filled up these two barrels.

It's free gasoline, and it would be a shame not to take more.
