Chapter 14 - I fight better alone

XG 14 - I fight better alone

"Move, Xue Guo!" Chen Yibo called as he smashed a zombie's face rather mercilessly.

Wong Xue Guo forced her weak legs to stand up and then frantically urged her numb legs to run towards Chen Yibo.

"Kim Sung-Ho! Follow me!" Wong Xue Guo called the boy that was fiercely beating up two zombies at the same time to the ground, reminding her of the whacking mole game.

She did not forget that Kim Sung-Ho had used his body to push the zombie away from her, even if it was a dead zombie. If her mother had not delivered the death blow, Kim Sung-Ho would be bitten by the zombie after pushing the zombie away from her.

Kim Sung-Ho smashed the zombies' heads until they resembled a smashed watermelon, more or less, before running to follow Wong Xue Guo.

Chen Jiang An lends her a hand, pulling her still numb legs to run away, likely to their hideout while Chen Yibo covers their backs.

With a calmness that does not fit a teenager that was facing the beginning of the zombie apocalypse, Chen Yibo aimed his bat at the zombies' faces with disturbing sounds. It took Wong Xue Guo a while to notice he had specifically aimed at a certain spot on their face.

The zombies' mouths.

Chen Yibo must have thought that without teeth, they would not be able to bite people. It was not a failsafe method, but his bat could not stab and was only able to hit, hence he had no choice but to use such a crude method to stop them from infecting people.

"Mr Vihaan." Suzie Yap intercepted Vihaan's fight and finished the zombies around him with formidable strength and speed. She was similar to a killing machine with standardized speed and strength from the start till now. "Follow the children to hide. I will deal with them."

Vihaan stared at Suzie Yap as if she had gone suicidal. "You should hide too. Fighting against them all is insane!"

"They will destroy the hideout if left alone."

Vihaan's eyes shook as he understood what she meant. He had seen from the monitoring screen how aggressive those monsters were when they discovered a human's hiding place. They kept on ramming their body onto the obstacles until they gave in, just to get their hands on the human.

The sports store will not hold up if a large wave of zombies surrounds it.

Vihaan watched Suzie Yap continue killing the zombies with a decisive mind. Her strength had allowed him some resting period, which was insane. "Can you alone deal with all these?"

They had killed quite a bit, and the number of monsters had reduced. But it was still a large number for a lone fighter.

"I fight better alone."

Her words would make one think she was arrogant and overestimate herself, yet he could hear truthfulness from her tone. Vihaan sucked in a deep breath and slowly released it as his gaze became sharper. He adjusted his glasses and moved his limbs into a position, preparing to run as fast as he could.

"Fight well and achieve victory. Your daughter needs you," Vihaan blessed Suzie Yap with a tinge of bitterness for being unmanly for leaving this woman to fight alone. He hardened his heart and charged to where the children had gone.

The metal pole was originally tough, but after using it to hit and stab many times, it became bent. He does not know how long his weapon will last, but if he stays behind to fight along with Suzie Yap, the metal will likely break not long after.

Then he would be a liability.

Vihaan could only bet that Suzie Yap was telling the truth that she fought better alone. Without needing to protect anyone, she could fight freely without restraint.
