Dark Civilization - Chapter22

Rumble ~ ~ ~

The sky was as dark as ink, covering the earth. Roars of thunder sounded as if it was mocking everything in the world. Lightning flashed in the dark clouds, like a devil's sinister laughter.

The torrential rain poured down, like knives and swords, hitting Ye Chen's face and body. His entire body was cold and his body was trembling slightly. Because he had lost too much blood, his face was as pale as a sheet of paper. Every step he took would affect the wound on his abdomen, causing him to feel an intense pain as if his abdomen was being torn apart.

This stubborn man silently gritted his teeth and ran as fast as he could into the distance.

If an ordinary person's abdomen was torn apart, it would definitely be difficult for them to survive. Not to mention Ye Chen, who was carrying his intestines back into his stomach and running wildly in the heavy rain.

He was very tired.

But he could not stop.

Perhaps, after he collapsed, it would be much easier, much easier …

"Sister …"

Ye Chen saw a few blurry figures standing by the wall. From their vague silhouettes and clothing, he could tell that they were his sister, Ye Zhu, and the others. He could not help but call out softly. Perhaps because the wound on his abdomen was too big, his voice sounded like a moan.

By the wall, Ye Zhu and the others were waiting for Ye Chen worriedly. When they suddenly heard the sound, they were all shocked and hurriedly turned their heads to look. The next moment, they saw a man running out of the heavy rain, his entire body covered in mud.

"Brother — —"

Ye Zhu's slender body trembled and she immediately rushed out without a care. The rain quickly soaked her body. She ran in front of Ye Chen and immediately noticed that something was wrong. She saw that the usually calm Ye Chen's face was so pale that there was no trace of blood. Along the way, there was dark red blood flowing down from his abdomen.

"You're injured?" Ye Zhu's eyes had a trace of shock.

Ye Chen glanced at her and felt slightly relieved. He didn't say much and quickly said, "Run! There's a powerful monster behind us. It will catch up in a moment. With my current strength, I can't fight it."

Ye Zhu's heart skipped a beat. She hurriedly shouted at White Dragon and the others who were standing by the wall. Then, she repeated Ye Chen's words. White Dragon and the others were shocked when they heard this. They knew that Ye Chen was not joking. A layer of haze covered their hearts.

"Run!"

Ye Chen ran as fast as he could according to the direction of the research institute. His sister, Ye Zhu, and the others followed behind him.

This group of people who were struggling in this world ran through the streets under the heavy rain. After running for a short while, Ye Chen felt dizzy. Even though his body was strong, he couldn't help but feel dizzy due to the excessive blood loss.

"Let me!"

A chuckling voice sounded in his ear. Ye Chen vaguely felt his body being supported by someone. Then, he heard the voice laughing, "You saved my life. Now, we're even."

Who else could it be other than White Dragon?

Ye Chen didn't say much. The strong fatigue made him not want to move even a step. His vision became more and more blurred. The buildings in front of him became shaky. Drowsiness swept through his heart like a tide. His eyelids became heavier and heavier.

Ye Chen gently bit the tip of his tongue. The sharp pain woke him up a little. Seeing a turn in front of him, he said, "To the left."

White Dragon agreed and helped him to turn to the left. Suddenly, they saw hundreds of zombies wandering around the street. The rain washed their bodies, washing off a layer of black liquid ….

"Not good!" White Dragon's pupils shrank.

At this time, the hundreds of zombies also discovered Ye Chen and the others. They roared and rushed over.

White Dragon and the others were shocked.

Ye Chen gritted his teeth and broke free from White Dragon's support. He grabbed his fire axe and rushed into the group of zombies. The veins on his arms were exposed. He turned around and shouted, "Whirlwind Dragon Slash!"

Boom!

A gust of wind rose. The group of zombies was thrown out in all directions. One by one, they were cut in half. The upper half of their bodies were still on the ground. They crawled on the ground with their claws and crawled toward Ye Chen.

After defeating the group of zombies, Ye Chen's last bit of strength was drained. He couldn't even stand steadily. His body was on the verge of collapse. His vision became more blurred. White Dragon was stunned for a moment. He suddenly recovered and rushed over to support him. Then, he carried him on his back and ran away.

"Can you still hold on?" The young man who always liked to joke looked dignified and said in a deep voice.

"Don't talk nonsense." Ye Chen gasped for breath.

Hearing this, White Dragon didn't get angry. Instead, he showed a smile and said, "You still have the strength to scold people. It seems that you can still hold on. That's good. I'll run with all my strength!"

With that, his figure moved and quickly ran away. The zombies that rushed out from the surrounding houses didn't have time to attack before they were shaken off by White Dragon.

The violent jolt caused Ye Chen's internal organs to overturn, but he didn't make a sound.

Ye Zhu and the others followed closely behind.

Yue Heng and the other two's luggage was all handed over to Ye Zhu. They were only responsible for running for their lives.

"Will we attract a lot of zombies?" Yue Heng looked at the zombies that were constantly coming from all directions and asked with concern.

Ye Zhu next to him shook his head and said, "Fortunately, the heavy rain has washed away the blood in the air. Otherwise, all kinds of powerful monsters will be attracted."

Yue Heng's heart jumped. When he thought of the scene of powerful monsters like mutant rats rushing in groups, he couldn't help but scalp tingle and a layer of goosebumps appeared on his body.

After running for a while, a tall building in front of them came into view. Ye Chen struggled to open his eyes and saw the words "Biological Research Institute" written on the top of the building. He couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

"Rush in!" Ye Chen said tiredly.

White Dragon responded and sped up. Seeing that they were only a few hundred meters away from the institute, suddenly, from the end of the street behind them, a violent and angry roar sounded. The sound shook the wilderness. Ye Chen and the others who were running were shocked. They turned their heads in horror.

When they looked, their pupils suddenly shrank. They saw a monster as tall as an elephant. Its fangs were ferocious. Its body was covered in black hair. Its eyes were filled with violence and ferocity.

"This, this is the monster you were talking about?" White Dragon's face was pale.

Ye Chen's heart sank and said, "Don't stop."

White Dragon quickly sped up and ran. Although its legs were already sore, it still desperately used all its strength.

Run!

Run!

Everyone only had this thought in their minds. They all used the greatest strength in their life to run to the institute that was a few hundred meters away.

It was getting closer and closer!

Seeing that the institute was only a few dozen meters away, everyone was overjoyed. At this moment, suddenly there was a miserable scream from behind. They saw that one of the two men who followed Yue Heng was torn apart by the devil wind dog. His body split in half and fell into the mud. His blood quickly dyed the rain red.

"Save … Save me!"

Half of the young man's body struggled to reach out to Ye Chen and the others. However, he could only see them running further and further away. Helplessness and despair shrouded his heart. His eyes immediately surged with intense resentment and hatred.

"Run!"

Yue Heng was so scared that his heart was thumping. He wished that he could grow a few more legs.

"Ah …"

Another miserable scream was heard. The other young man who fell behind also fell under the claws of the devil wind dog. It was like a demon from hell, harvesting lives.

"Soon." Ye Chen looked at the institute in front of him and silently said in his heart.

"Ah!"

At this moment, there was a miserable scream. Even though there were thousands of raindrops separating them, it still clearly reached Ye Chen's ears and even his heart.

Ye Chen's mind went blank with a boom. It was as if all sound had disappeared. Only his heart was left pounding. He turned his head and looked. It was as if time had frozen.

In the rain, a beautiful girl fell into the mud like a butterfly with broken wings. She had a poignant beauty. Who else could it be but his sister Ye Zhu?

Ye Chen felt as if his head had exploded. There was a buzzing sound and he couldn't hear anything.

…

There were so few recommendation votes today. There were a few dozen fewer than usual. Sigh, my ranking dropped by two.
