Doomsday: Starting from the Titanic

Chapter 41 Midnight Crisis

"Quickly, everyone retreat! Let's work together to shoot them down!" Tang Huo hovered in the air.

He cannot back down; behind him are his wife, children, elderly parents, and comrades who have shared life and death.

"Brother, I'm going to run!" At this moment, Ru Hua, who was dozens of meters away, also saw this scene.

"Sister, can you imprison the blood corpse?" Ru Hua panicked. The three of them had developed a familial bond along the way.

"No, the distance is too far, we need to get closer!" Si Shui turned and ran towards Yu Wenwen and the others, but the blood corpses were not slow either.

In the blink of an eye, the distance had decreased from tens of meters to within five meters.

"It's over, it's too late!" Si Shui panicked, and Tang Huo and the others panicked as well.

"Damn it, if that brat dies, who knows what kind of trouble those two will cause!"

Song Ren felt extremely agitated at the thought of Li Yao being smashed into a pulp.

"Sister, I'm scared..." Yu Wenwen's legs trembled as she watched the blood-soaked corpses rushing towards her, and she couldn't run anymore.

"Captain, what do we do? These blood-corpse-like creatures are almost five meters tall, and their physical resistance is unbelievably high. We can't kill them with high-speed projectiles alone!"

For the first time, Li Xue felt that the damage from ultra-high-speed projectiles was still too low.

"Just a few blood corpses. No matter how big they are, they're still just blood corpses. They can't be considered monsters!" Having witnessed Bai Chi's power, Fu Xi didn't take these zombies seriously at all.

Amidst the panicked expressions of everyone, a man walked expressionlessly toward the large, bloodied corpse.

"Is he crazy?"

"That's a large blood zombie, one that can survive even artillery bombardment."

"Damn it, is he planning to deliver takeout to the zombies, making them even stronger and causing us to suffer even greater casualties?"

For a moment, those hiding in the back were discussing it amongst themselves, but they soon realized that the situation was not going as they had expected.

"How is that possible? A zombie that could withstand artillery fire was killed by one person?" For a moment, the scene was completely silent, until someone broke the awkward atmosphere.

"Yes, that's right. The large blood zombie that took several of us captains to kill together was taken care of by him all by himself." Tang Huo gasped.

Looking at the five pools of blood on the ground, and then at Fuxi standing on top of them, their eyes held fear, envy, and greed.

"These are superhumans. How can a convoy of just a few people have so many superhumans?" Tang Huo threw away his pipe and stood there questioning his existence.

"Damn it, this newcomer is actually a superhuman! I should have stopped him when he was fighting Song Ren; that would have increased my popularity with others."

Tang Huo was filled with remorse, but he quickly came up with a plan and ran excitedly towards Fu Xi:

"Brother Fuxi, my name is Tang Huo, and I'm the captain of the Sunset Car Team. Why don't you join us...?"

Fu Xi waved his hand in refusal. From the very beginning, he had realized that these people were all shrewd and calculating.

"Why didn't they come out when I was arguing with Song Ren?"

"Now that he's out, it's clear he's no good either; he's just after his own worth," Fu Xi thought to herself.

Not only his other teams, but also others who saw Fuxi's strength wanted to win her over. Fortunately, Ruhua solved these problems for him.

"Are you alright, little brother?" Ru Hua looked at Yu Wenwen with concern, but Yu Wenwen's mind was entirely on Fu Xi.

"I can't let this big shot get away!" Yu Wenwen thought to herself, and immediately walked towards Ru Hua and the other woman.

"Sister Ruhua, stop them!" Ruhua, who was as tall as a mountain, stood up and stood in front of Fuxi, looking down at the crowd.

"What are you doing? Trying to steal someone? Did you ask me first?" Under Ru Hua's intimidating presence, none of them dared to poach anyone openly.

They still vividly remember Li Yao's actions!

"Everyone, after what we've seen, I think we still need to consolidate some personnel to deal with the dangers tonight!" Qin Han stepped forward and suggested.

……

Those present echoed each other's sentiments, and once everything was ready, the leaders sat around the campfire.

"So, Brother Qin has been trapped here for even longer?" Tang Huo asked, exhaling a puff of smoke.

"Yes, I've been trapped here for over ten days and still haven't found a way out, so when I heard something was wrong here, I came to help..."

Yu Wenwen replied coldly, "Captain Qin, your timing is too perfect! You arrived as soon as we were attacked!"

"What, you doubt me?" Qin Han's face immediately fell, revealing a wronged expression.

"There's nothing I can do if that's how you think," Yu Wenwen said, not putting up with him at all.

"We only came over because we saw you were in danger. Bro, I told you, why bother saving them? It's like offering a friendly face only to be met with indifference. Let's go."

Qin Song tried to leave with Qin Han, but Tang Huo immediately stepped in as a mediator, smiling and apologizing.

"The kid is ignorant, Brother Qin, don't take it to heart!" The Sunset Caravan is now severely weakened, and Tang Huo doesn't want them to get away.

"Indeed, Brother Qin, don't take the kid's words to heart. May I ask what you meant by the ghostly corpse you mentioned earlier?" Fu Xi asked.

"Hmph, since Brother Fuxi has said so, then I'll have a chat with you." Qin Han then sat down and said.

"We've been here for over ten days, so we definitely know more than you do. I'm sure you've also witnessed people dying mysteriously!"

A bizarre death?

Tang Huo frowned. He had actually encountered this kind of thing before. "Brother Qin, I have indeed encountered this kind of thing before."

"A few days ago, several of my brothers suddenly started bleeding from all seven orifices and died," Tang Huo slowly recounted.

"Later I checked and asked my brothers, and none of them felt anything was wrong, they didn't even hear any gunshots." Tang Huo's brows furrowed more and more as he spoke.

"Oh? You encountered it too?" Song Ren's expression was also grave. It wasn't just him; some of his smaller convoys had also run into it.

But they all attributed these bizarre deaths to suicides committed by people who didn't want to live.

Tang Huo ignored these comments and continued speaking.

"But that's not the main thing. Later, I buried my dead brother, and when I went to check on him the next day, what can you believe? His body was gone."

"Yes, I can testify that I buried it with the captain!" One of the members of the Sunset Car Team walked out with tears streaming down his face.

"I naturally believe Brother Tang Huo's words, because I've encountered it myself!" Qin Han exhaled lightly, his voice slightly heavy.

"What, you ran into them too?"

"Yes, our team of over a hundred people has dwindled to just a few dozen." Qin Han stood up and pointed to the team behind him.

"However, the sacrifice of these people was necessary because I found the root of the problem, which is the stench of corpses!" Qin Han said in a serious tone.

"Just smelling it will kill you!"

"That's right, I can vouch for my brother!" Qin Song stepped forward.

"Does Brother Qin have a solution?" Tang Huo was extremely anxious, as his team was losing men every night.

"Of course there is. That is to wear gas masks and stick together. That way we can survive. What do you all think?"

Qin Han's gaze fell on Fu Xi; the value of these people was nowhere near that of him alone.

"I'm in!" Tang Huo was the first to volunteer.

"I won't join!" Song Ren replied coldly. He was arrogant by nature and always the one recruiting others. How could he let others recruit him?

"I wonder, what about Brother Fuxi?" Qin Han's gaze remained fixed on Fuxi.

"I'm used to being free and I don't like living in groups!" Fu Xi replied coldly, but just as he was about to get up, Tang Huo stopped him.

"Brother Fuxi, I know you are strong, but we can't act rashly when facing the strange. Only by uniting can we survive..."

Tang Huo was about to speak when Ru Hua pushed him away, saying, "What, trying to steal someone from me right in front of this beauty?"

"No, no!"

"If you're scared, get out of here, or I'll beat you up!"

Watching Fu Xi and the others quickly retreat, a murderous glint flashed in Qin Han's eyes: "Damn it, the plan failed!"

Song Ren got up, wanting to chase after them, but his strong will made him stop. "Damn it, I really want to join them. These Qin Han and his group don't seem reliable at all..."

……

Night fell.

Led by Yu Wenwen, Fu Xi and the others arrived at a tall building.

"This is the safest place. We've been able to get through these past few days safely because of this place..." Yu Wenwen wanted to continue, but then she saw Fu Xi's face turn cold.

"Who is it? Come out here!" Following Fu Xi's gaze, a man with a black cloth over his head and his family walked out.

"Brother, it's us! We're just a bunch of small, scattered caravans; we'll die without protection. Please have mercy!"

Fu Xi recognized him at a glance; this was the man who had told them to get out earlier.

"Qin Han and the others don't want you?" Fu Xi questioned.

"No, they think we're a waste of resources!"

Fu Xi had already anticipated this, and deliberately asked, "I prefer quiet when I sleep, so please don't disturb us!"

Watching Fu Xi walk into the building, the man in black immediately set up a makeshift bed on the floor around her.

"What are you standing there for? Hurry up and pack up. We can only survive with their protection."

……

Upon reaching the fifth floor, Yu Wenwen crossed her arms and couldn't help but question, "Why are we letting those trash follow us?"

Fu Xi didn't intend to hide anything; apart from their questionable character, these people were otherwise fine.

"I don't really believe the murder pattern Qin Han mentioned. I'm going to test it on them."

"Oh, you're so mean! Why didn't you speak up for me when Qin Han was talking about me before?" Yu Wenwen questioned again.

"Of course I don't believe him, but wouldn't it be better to let him tell me the information first?"

"Hmph, since you know what's good for you, I'll forgive you!" After tidying up briefly, Yu Wenwen picked up a pen holder and started shaking it.

Li Xue curiously leaned closer, "Little brat, what are you doing?"

"What 'little brat'? Call me Master Wen! I'm figuring out if I'll have a peaceful night!"

"Superstition," Li Xue muttered, turning to leave, but Yu Wenwen's eyes widened in shock and she jumped up.

"Ominous! Terribly ominous! Someone will die tonight!"

"What? Kid..." Li Xue was about to speak when she was drawn by the sound of gunfire downstairs.

"what!"

"What's wrong?" The group looked over and saw the desiccated corpse downstairs staring at them with lifeless, empty eyes.

A sense of horror arose in everyone's hearts!

As for the corpses lying on the ground, bleeding from all seven orifices, one of them was recognized by Fu Xi as the man in black cloth, and they were wearing gas masks on their faces.
