"Thats–thats…" Lei Yan pointed at the army of the mutated rats that were rushing out of the potholes and alleys. Even the mutated rat that was attacked by her brother was completely fine as if a countless number of bullets were not aimed at it just now.
The giant rat shook its head and charged at their car once again.
Lei Qian controlled the mounted turret again before doing a U-turn and taking another route, as the one that he was driving through was now blocked by giant rats.
"Fuck, what’s going on, brother? How can there be such big rats?" Lei Yan asked while trembling in fear.
"Lei Yan, this is not the time to wonder about such things!" Lei Qian spoke through gritted teeth and said to his sister, "Look around and find an opening."
As he spoke, he looked at the rearview mirror and was terrified out of his wits when he saw that the giant rats were still chasing their car. Now he understood why there were so many checkpoints before anyone could enter this city.
Lei Yan immediately looked out of the window and started searching for a way to escape from these rats. She finally saw a path that had only one or two rats and pointed at that path.
"There, brother, drive through that path."
Lei Qian looked in the direction where Lei Yan was pointing and immediately turned the wheel towards the western side of the city. Compared to the army of mutated rats, he was willing to take on two rats.
As Lei Qian approached the clear road, he shot wildly without paying attention to what and where he was shooting.
However, it was as if the skin of these monstrous rats was made of iron; no matter how many bullets he wasted, the rats were not affected at all. The bullets simply bounced off their fur or got stuck in it.
He drove past the rats that were standing in his path; however, like the rest of the rats, these two monster rats also started to chase after them.
Lei Yan watched the giant rats chasing after their car and burst into tears. "No wonder the officials didn’t want anyone to go in or out of this city. They are trying to suppress this matter."
Father and Mother Lei’s face turned ashen and even Lei Qian’s complexion was ugly. He was furious when he thought about how the government was keeping such important news from the citizens and was pretending as if everything was fine.
The Lei family was aware of how serious this situation was; with such hideous monsters, how were they supposed to get out of this city?
Bai Meiyue, on the other hand, had no idea that Lei Qian’s life was in danger.
She took her vitamins and went to look for Shen Zhen again. Since she had decided to bring Shen Zhen to her side, Bai Meiyue knew that she needed to be aware of Shen Zhen’s schedule. If she had no idea what and where Shen Zhen would be on the last day of the world, how was Bai Meiyue going to kidnap her?
Thus, Bai Meiyue asked around and when she found out that Shen Zhen had no shift on the day when the end of the world would start, Bai Meiyue frowned and sighed. Looks like she now needed to find the address of Shen Zhen.
She asked around for a while before getting the address of Shen Zhen; she rushed to the small apartment building where Shen Zhen lived and carefully searched around for an opening that she could use while kidnapping Shen Zhen.
