Chapter 129 - Eight lives

Behind them, zombies poured out of the classroom, tumbling over desks and chairs, their lifeless eyes locked onto their prey. Some crawled on all fours like rabid animals, snarling and snapping their jaws.

Muchen barely had time to glance back before Shao grabbed his wrist and yanked him forward.

"The stairs—go!"

They sprinted toward the stairwell, but as soon as they reached the doorway, they came to a skidding halt.

A new wave of undead was rushing down from the upper floors. Dozens of them barreled forward, their bodies slamming into one another as they tumbled down the steps, driven by sheer hunger.

Muchen's heart dropped.

Shao clenched his jaw. Trapped.

Zombies in front. Zombies behind.

Muchen's grip tightened on the IV stand in his hands. Fighting was out of the question. There were too many.

His eyes darted around the corridor, searching for an escape.

Then he saw it.

A elevator at the end of the hall.
