Apocalypse Meltdown

"Have you forgotten that there are still more than two million zombies in the city?" Chu Han’s voice suddenly turned cold. He felt absolutely nothing after orchestrating and planning the massacre of eighteen thousand zombies. It was just a warm-up for the war that is about to come. He also did not think about showing off.

Silence---

All of a sudden, the happiness the people were feeling vanished in thin air. The happiness they had after winning was now gone! Yes, there were still about two million zombies in the city and what they had faced today was just the tip of the iceberg.

Chu Han`s words also shocked Cheng Xianguo but he soon regained his composure after panicking for a bit. He unusually said, "Don’t say something like that. The war was finished just now and we should not think of the future so much. Everywhere is the same; there will always be zombies anywhere in the world."

"Yes!" Yue Zi was back to his usual attitude, "Everyone should not think so much about it. We should focus on celebrating our victory!"

Cheng Xianguo and Yue Zi’s relaxed attitudes affected the crowd, although they themselves were also worried. Cheng Xianguo said the right thing. There are zombies everywhere and so they must cherish this one day where there is none in the vicinity. So why would you think so much?

"Yes, boss." Someone said, "Don’t be so nervous!"

"Yes! I suggest that we must celebrate today. I will ask my wife to cook braised pork in brown sauce!"

"I used to be a cook so I will also make dinner!"

The atmosphere turned even more relaxed. Besides relaxation, everyone also wanted to have a closer relationship with Chu Han. Their reaction was almost purely out of their instincts and it was caused by their loyalty towards Chu Han.

Chu Han raised his hands and then put them down in the next instant. The crowd turned silent as they looked at him.

He was wearing his usual expression as he said, "Zombies are everywhere and every place is the same? Tong City has no military influence, not even a simple outpost, so how long do you think you will last with limited weapons?"

The crowd looked at Chu Han. Each one of them was at a loss; they simply did not know what to do.

"So," Looking at the silent crowd, Chu Han`s cold voice and indifferent tone sounded out, "I suggest that it would be better to leave right now. Passing through the exit would now be easier since we have taken care of the horde that has blocked it."

"Leave? Now?" Cheng Xianguo was so shocked. Chu Han’s word overturned their line of thought. They had lived at this place for a long time already and so they were reluctant to leave.

"More than two million zombies can completely trample and ruin this city. I am not scaring you. What I said is a fact." Chu Han said, "Go towards a place where there is a military entity and you will survive longer."

He turned back and said to Chen Shaoye, "Look for the G55 and the van; we have to use those two vehicles to continue travelling!"

He did not want to stay here for a second longer. He could not predict when the danger was going to come so he must not dally.

Chen Shaoye was at a daze but he quickly regained his composure. "Ah Good!"

"You`re leaving now?" Cheng Xianguo still wanted to ask for more information but before he could spit it out ---

Beep!

The roar of a car engine could suddenly be heard coming from the residential district as a van filled with food was being driven very quickly. The crowd dispersed as they looked towards it, seeking who the driver was.

"Cheng Zehao??" Ye Chen`s eyes suddenly flashed with a tinge of madness and surprise.

"Zehao!" Cheng Xianguo ran after the vehicle but the van did not stop. It moved faster and faster until it was out of the people`s line of sight.

"This! This!" Yue Zi wanted to curse but he did not since Cheng Xianguo was by his side.

Chu Han glanced at the disappearing shadow of the van as he merely shrugged it off since he still thought it was okay if his van was still there. Chen Shaoye, Bai Yun`er and Shang Jiuti then drove and parked two cars near Chu Han.

"Can we go with you?" Someone suddenly said, "Can we find a good place to stay if we go with you?"

"We want you to be our leader!"

"Yes! We want to always follow you!"

Expectation could be seen in the eyes of the crowd. They subconsciously wanted to follow Chu Han. It was not for food, just like why Chen Shaoye, Shang Jiuti, and Lou Xiaoxiao were going with Chu Han.

Go with him?

Chu Han smiled wryly. He wouldn`t have missed this chance if he did not have an important thing to do. Just thinking about an army of loyal subordinates was already a great pain to Chu Han.

But he could not do it!

Before the apocalypse, he always had a sense of hopelessness. At that time, he just couldn`t do anything. He couldn`t do anything to help when he looked at his parents getting older and working hard every day.

He had missed his chance in doing something in his previous incarnation, a matter which has caused him a great deal of pain and guilt for all of the ten years he spent. He used to ask himself why he was staying at this world where he could do absolutely nothing!

He was unwilling!

But now, everything was different. He was now very powerful that he could fight against hundreds of zombies alone and even destroy eighteen thousand zombies using his brain!

He could now make up for the helplessness he felt during his previous incarnation. He was no longer afraid of zombies or the apocalypse!

But what he was most scared of was the thought of not being able to do something for his parents again.

People tend to be selfish and Chu Han had no responsibility to take care of these people. His parents were more important to him. Whether they had died or if they were still alive, he still had to find out.

So---

"Sorry." Chu Han said with pity in his voice, "I could not go with you and I couldn`t be your leader."

"Why?" Yue Zi was confused and asked the question that has also baffled the crowd.

"I have to go home and find my parents." Chu Han’s reason was so simple but it was filled with determination.

The crowd was at a daze as they silently looked at Chu Han. They then came to remember that the one who has created the miracle then was just a twenty year old boy.

"Where are your parents?" Someone asked.

"Anluo City," Chu Han calmly said, ignoring the shock his words brought to the masses.

He wants to go to Anluo City to find his parents?

It was a ridiculous but incredible reason that was able to move the hearts of the crowd. They knew how far Anluo City was from here. It was a place who was experiencing severe traffic problems during civilized times, let alone the road today. Chu Han had to travel through more than a thousand miles to find his parents. Chu Han`s filial piety was rare especially during these times where everyone was having a hard time.

"Take care, all of you. I hope we could fight with each other again in the near future." Chu Han turned around as he took Lou Xiaoxiao off the roof. They then walked towards the vehicles they were going to be in and ordered the drivers to start driving since he did not want to stay in this place a second longer.
