Surviving in anime world, playing with a girl and getting watched by the live chat.

Repeating this process, she reached the ground, ran a few steps, aimed at the vehicles on the road, and used the grappling hook to quickly fly towards the cars. Then she shot at a signboard, soaring into the air and shaking off the approaching zombies on the road, while simultaneously using the grappling hook to fly towards a building beside the road.

Before long, Kagamihara Nadeshiko used a grappling hook to climb to the roof of the three-story building.

"Be careful, be careful of special infections."

Higashion followed closely behind Kagamihara Nadeshiko, and seeing that Nadeshiko was somewhat lost in thought, he advised her not to relax too much and forget where she was.

They were in the dangerous city of New Bath, not in an amusement park. Nadeshiko was treating the grappling hook like a toy, bouncing around like a nimble monkey in the mountains.

"Okay, okay."

Kagamihara Nadeshiko smiled and agreed.

There are quite a few zombies in New Bath.

Just as Dongyun had predicted, the city's roads were intricate and complex. Although the zombies would migrate, there would always be some zombies trapped in the city, not knowing how to leave.

The more complex the road or the more enclosed the area, the more likely they are to encounter zombies.

However, with their grappling hooks, they weren't particularly afraid of encountering zombies. The grappling hooks were very fast; if they landed and encountered a zombie, they could immediately be launched onto the roof of the nearest car or telephone pole to fly high into the air, and then be launched into a building next to the road to completely get rid of the zombie.

Goto Ichiri was a bit unlucky; as he flew toward the second-floor balcony of a building, he happened to run into a zombie who had come out of a room after hearing the noise.

This was a very fat zombie with a belly full of spores.

Unfortunately, Yamada Ryo managed to shoot and kill the zombie for Pochi.

Suddenly, the zombie exploded.

A large number of spores burst out of her body. If Goto Ichiri hadn't quickly retracted her grappling hook and relaunched, changing her direction, she would have been covered in spores.

While Fresh Defense can prevent spores, it's more like a thin protective film covering the body. It can filter harmful substances in the air, but a large amount of harmful substances can also adhere to the outside of this protective film.

If Goto Ichiri gets sprayed all over, he can feel it.

The group found it very enjoyable to use the grappling hook to scale walls and rooftops, but the hook's durability was rather poor. After using the hook three times, its durability would drop by about two percent.

Although the rate of loss isn't fast, knowing that the durability will eventually reach zero and not knowing how to repair it is hard not to feel that they can't live without the grappling hook.

The difficulty of surviving the apocalypse is completely different with and without a grappling hook.

In big cities, they can use grappling hooks to scale walls and rooftops, and in small cities and towns, they can also use grappling hooks to move around. As long as they don't go to vast plains or barren deserts, their survival rate is greatly improved by having grappling hooks.

too fast.

Flying in mid-air, Dongyun glanced at his phone; they were actually heading to the Dietrich Laboratory.

The reason for this is that their mode of transportation is a grab hook, so they travel in a straight line. There are no open spaces like parks along the route, so they don't have to take detours.

Since they are traveling through the air and will not encounter traffic jams, it is normal for them to arrive at the laboratory in no time, following the shortest route between two points.

Soon, everyone arrived at their destination.

Detrick Labs, ostensibly an energy company, is in reality an evil laboratory called Duka Energy.

Standing on the roof of the three-story building, Dongyun looked at the blurry company gate across the street, unable to make out the company building or laboratory building further away.

He looked out onto the street but saw no vehicles or zombies.

This place is far from the city center, a rather remote and desolate area. Since it's a high-tech industrial zone, the lack of residential buildings, shops, vehicles, and zombies isn't surprising.

"No zombies?" Kagamihara Nadeshiko asked in surprise. "There isn't a single zombie outside the evil headquarters that created the virus. Are they all waiting for us inside?"

"Hard to say."

Dongyun said noncommittally.

No one knows exactly how the virus broke out, but it was probably an accidental leak.

This isn't a game; the final level throws a bunch of monsters at you without any regard for the plot. Even if you're going to have a bunch of monsters, it should be in a lab. There's no reason for so many zombies to be in a deserted place.

Although zombies do migrate, according to viewers' speculation, they migrate towards populated areas, not towards areas full of viral spores and zombie-specific infections.

Should we go in now?

Kita Ikuyo asked.

With her side ponytail twirled behind her shoulder, Ichiji Nijika suggested, "Let's rest for a while before going in. Everyone must be a little tired. It's better if we conserve our energy before going in."

After speaking, Ichiji Nijika rubbed her sore eyes.

Colorful spores were everywhere, and she had to be extra careful and keep her eyes glued to the ground when using the grappling hook to scale walls, which made her eyes very tired.

"I agree."

Goto Ichiri glanced at Shinonome and said timidly.

She was worried that Dongyun would disagree.

Even though she knew that Dongyun was unlikely to disagree, she was still inexplicably worried.

"Everyone, take a half-hour break. If you're tired, you can take a nap."

Shinonome also agreed with Ichichi Nijika's suggestion. Although the virus inhibitor was within reach, he knew that it was precisely at this time that they couldn't rush things.

When you're in a rush, you're prone to making mistakes; when you make mistakes, trouble is bound to happen; and when trouble happens, it's all just a mix of laughter and defeat.

Chapter 88 Are you ready, children?

Duka Energy Corporation.

Once on the ground, the group cautiously observed their surroundings and headed towards Duka Energy Company.

There was no one in the guardhouse outside the gate. The glass window was broken, and there were congealed dark red bloodstains on the window sill and broken glass.

The way the Ditrick Laboratory fell seems to be no different from that of New Bass and Vikland; it appears that no virus leak was detected, and the laboratory was silently infected by the virus in the air.

The group walked cautiously, keeping their footsteps low to avoid being heard by the zombies hiding somewhere in the spore mist.

Although they didn't encounter them, or perhaps they encountered them but didn't notice, there are probably zombies among them with excellent hearing, capable of locating things by sound.

No one spoke. Yamada Ryo and Kagamihara Nadeshiko walked at the front, one holding a rifle and the other a fire axe, both on high alert to prevent any dangers in the fog.

Since Xiao Jia lost her magic power, the strongest fighters in the team are the four girls from the End Band, but in terms of close combat ability, it must be Kagamihara Nadeshiko.

Dongyun was already failing; he was both squeezing blood and milking Xiaojia.

He was stronger than Nadeshiko in a short time, but he couldn't last long and would get tired. Even a little exercise would make him feel physically exhausted.

Suddenly, Yamada Ryo and Kagamihara Nadeshiko, who were walking in front, stopped. Gabriel and Goto Ichiri, who were following behind, bumped into them.

"Why don't you leave?"

Gabriel rubbed her forehead.

She tilted her head and looked ahead from behind Kagamihara Nadeshiko, her brows furrowing instantly.

On the road ahead, a black, mud-like substance covered the cement road, and it seemed to be alive, wriggling slightly.

"What is this? It's disgusting, it looks sticky, I hope it's not corrosive."

Kita Ikuyo's pretty face showed a look of disgust.

"It might be black slime that can corrode everyone's clothes and shoes, but won't harm your body."

Yamada Ryo approached Kita Ikuyo and uttered words that sounded like those of an older man.

"cold……"

Niji Natsumi patted Yamada Ryo on the shoulder and complained, "Don't tell such tasteless jokes just because you're under pressure."

"Can we go around it?"

Seeing the black mud on the ground, Dongyun couldn't help but worry: Could the laboratory be full of black mud?

"do not know."

Kagamihara Nadeshiko shook her head and walked slowly forward.

"These are all things; we might have to step on them."

Yamada Ryo stopped beside the black mud and looked back at Dongyun, seeking his advice.

"Check if it's corrosive."

Dongyun put down her backpack, took out a change of clothes from her clothes, and threw them up.

The clothes fell onto the black mud, but were not corroded or altered.

Shinonome glanced at Gabriel, who knowingly stepped forward and stomped on the black mud.

The black boots were quickly submerged in black mud up to the instep, but that was the end of it. The boots did not corrode, nor did they become bottomless, or perhaps there were strange things in the mud grabbing or gnawing at the shoes.

This black mud looks like ordinary black mud, sticky and gooey, and doesn't seem dangerous.

Gabriel took two steps and walked completely into the black mud.

She turned around and whispered, "It seems fine, it's just black mud. But it's very sticky, and we'll be in danger if zombies appear."

"I hope there aren't any zombies."

Seeing that the black mud was neither corrosive nor threatening, Dongyun immediately stepped into it. He glanced at the "Virus Protection Card" hanging around his neck; the card remained its usual yellow-red color.

Everyone was wearing long boots, but Dongyun was still wearing military boots.

Even if the black mud covers your insteps, there's no need to worry too much. The only thing to be careful of is to keep your footing and avoid slipping and falling. The fact that the black mud is not corrosive to boots and clothes doesn't mean it's harmless to their health.
