Zombie King: Picking up a baby at the beginning is the reincarnation of the empress

Chapter 156 Curiosity kills the cat!

Two days after the rescue team arrived in Jiangnan city, the rescue operation led by the evolver team led by Wang Lei went very smoothly because they did not encounter any obstruction from the evolved zombies.

Many hiding survivors were rescued one after another.

During the rescue process, the Evolver Team was also constantly compiling information.

Wang Lei and others also learned through the radio that the evolver teams in other areas had already started fighting with the evolved zombies in other urban areas.

Some teams even suffered a lot of casualties.

However, in the Jiangnan urban area where Wang Lei and others are located, no trace of any evolved zombies has been found so far.

This made their rescue mission go very smoothly.

It was even going too smoothly. It was not at all as dangerous as Wang Lei and others had expected before they came.

As more and more survivors were rescued, Wang Lei and others learned more information from them.

Among these survivors, many also claimed to have seen zombies driving with their own eyes.

As for those who saw zombies carrying supplies, there were even more.

This bizarre phenomenon seemed outrageous to Wang Lei and others.

And after continuous inquiries, Wang Lei and others even heard that wars between evolved zombies often occurred in the Jiangnan city not long ago.

Those evolved zombies kept fighting each other, and from time to time they let out earth-shaking roars, which scared many survivors so much that they dared not go out to look for food.

The battle between the evolved zombies was extremely noisy, so many survivors witnessed it with their own eyes.

After continuous questioning, Wang Lei sorted out the information of these survivors.

There had indeed been wars between evolved zombies in the Jiangnan urban area before, with zombies driving cars and carrying supplies.

But no one has seen these phenomena in the past few days.

The time when these evolved zombies disappeared basically coincided with the time when the rescue team arrived.

It seemed that after the rescue team arrived in the Jiangnan urban area, those evolved zombies disappeared without a trace.

Although Wang Lei and others found it a little hard to believe, such a coincidence still made them have some inexplicable thoughts.

Could it be that these evolved zombies are really afraid of me and others?

Knowing that a team of evolvers was coming to rescue the survivors, they all hid themselves one by one?
Although this speculation is a bit ridiculous, it seems to be the only possibility at the moment.

Otherwise, it doesn't make sense that everything was normal before the arrival of us, but changed after the five of us arrived.

The absence of evolved zombies made Wang Lei's team more relaxed.

More and more survivors were rescued, but they still hadn't encountered the evolved zombies. It seemed that these evolved zombies were really afraid of them.

……

Because the Jiangnan urban area is too safe, the rescue missions are carried out separately.

When Lin Yan was carrying out rescue work in the Jiangnan urban area, he passed through a small road in the urban area leading to the suburbs.

Lin Yan didn't care at first, but he found that the ground was very uneven and there were a lot of traces of trucks.

"Huh? This is... a mark left by a large truck?!"

Lin Yan looked at the tire tracks in front of him, squatted down and measured the depth of the tire tracks and the ground with his hands.

"It looks like this isn't just a mark left by a large truck, it's a fully loaded truck!"

It has been more than half a year since the apocalypse, and not long after the zombie crisis broke out, humans basically had to live in hiding in the dark.

No one dared to drive down the street, as that would be like lighting a beacon to the zombies.

But Lin Yan was surprised to find that the tire tracks on this road were obviously the most recent.

Moreover, the same tire tracks repeatedly appeared on this road, proving that the car had been running back and forth recently. This was not something a human survivor would do.

After all, if the human survivors could leave the city alive, I'm afraid no one would be willing to come back here.

Lin Yan frowned slightly, and couldn't help but think of what he had heard from the survivors in the Jiangnan city about zombies driving.

“Could it be that what those idiots said is true? Are there really zombies in Jiangnan City that can drive trucks?”

"Are these vehicle tracks left by the zombie driving the truck?!"

Thinking of this, Lin Yan couldn't help but widen his eyes.

Before this, he didn't believe what these survivors said at all, but now the facts seem to be before him.

"Haha, it's really interesting."

"A group of brainless and bloodthirsty monsters can actually drive. If we can bring this news back to the base, I'm sure it will earn us a lot of contribution points!"

Lin Yan's eyes lit up. If he told others the news that zombies could drive, no one would believe it.

If I could confirm this news and bring it back to the survivor base, it would be a great achievement.

By then, I will definitely be able to exchange a large amount of contribution points, and maybe I can even make a further breakthrough in my own realm.

If it were before, Lin Yan would definitely not dare to act alone. After all, no one knows what will happen in the end of the world.

However, in recent times, no evolved zombies have appeared in the entire Jiangnan urban area. In Lin Yan's opinion, these zombies must be scared, which gave him a lot of confidence.

After thinking about it, Lin Yan did not inform Wang Lei and others, and walked towards the suburbs alone following the car tracks.

Relying on his powerful combat capability as an evolver, Lin Yan easily killed all the ordinary zombies he encountered along the way.

There was a blazing fire flickering between his hands, and under the terrifying flames, these zombies were no match for him at all.

A large number of zombies kept falling at his feet, which made Lin Yan more confident.

However, Lin Yan, who was already immersed in killing, did not notice that a zombie was following him in secret.

After Lin Yan was far away from the city, "Lightning One" suddenly rushed out from the darkness.

Lin Yan was startled by the sudden noise and he quickly waved his hands and a wall of fire suddenly appeared in front of him.

Just through observation along the way, Lu Chuan already knew Lin Yan's fighting style.

This wall of fire was completely within Lu Chuan's expectations. He immediately controlled Lightning No. 1 to easily dodge it and quickly approached Lin Yan.

The speed at which Lightning One exploded made Lin Yan's face turn pale in an instant.

As an evolver who can enter the city to carry out rescue missions, Lin Yan’s own combat power is indeed very strong.

However, he was too confident and overestimated his own strength.

The fire attack power is indeed strong, but he is just a "mage" and he encountered the agility evolved zombie "Lightning No. 1".

……

After half an hour.

At the gate of Qingshui Farm, "Lightning No. 1" returned to the farm, holding a lifeless corpse in his hands.

The corpse was actually Lin Yan from the five-man team.

Looking at the evolver in front of him, a cold light flashed in Lu Chuan's eyes.

“There is a road to heaven but you don’t take it, and there is no door to hell but you break in.”

"Didn't your mom tell you that curiosity kills the cat?"
