1149: Leaving the hospital
At this moment, the Zombie on the Hospital bed finally stopped moving and roaring, falling into death.
As expected, the plants produced by the System are much more efficient at killing Zombies than I am!
Just this attack capability is something I couldn't catch up to even with a chair leg!
"Ding ~ Congratulations, Host, for using a plant to kill a Zombie, achieving the achievement [First Plant Kill], rewarding the Host with the unlock of the [Potato Mine] illustrated guide."
After closing the Hospital room door, Hong Lei heard the System's notification.
Another plant illustrated guide unlocked!
And it's a plant that only needs two energy points to obtain one.
He looked back at the Sunflower.
This guy hadn't produced new energy during this time.
A single Sunflower's efficiency in producing energy is still too low.
However, at this stage, there isn't any extra energy to plant more Sunflowers.
"Da da da ~"
The gunfire at the Hospital entrance was still intense.
It must be said that Humanity's hot weapons are still very effective in this kind of disaster.
Zombies constantly rushed towards the Army formation from all around the Hospital, but they were all shot into beehives by bullets from dozens of meters away.
Even a few waves of converged Zombie groups were still torn apart by bullets halfway there!
From this situation, it seems the Army can really eliminate all the Zombies in the Hospital and rescue everyone!
"Buzz buzz ~"
Suddenly, Hong Lei heard some sounds in the Hospital room.
As he turned his head, he immediately saw that the Sunflower, which hadn't been condensing energy little suns, now directly jumped twice, and two energy points appeared!
Seeing this scene, a bad premonition rose in Hong Lei's heart.
He still remembered that the System said the Sunflower needed darkness energy to condense energy.
These two consecutive energy points appearing means the surrounding darkness energy has become Rich (rich)!
What does rich darkness energy represent?
After this question popped out, the battlefield at the Hospital entrance gave Hong Lei the answer!
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh ~"
The heavy rain that had stopped for a while now fell again.
Compared to before, even Hong Lei, who was in the Hospital room, could clearly feel a chill from this heavy rain!
When he reached out his hand outside the window and the rain fell on his palm, Hong Lei felt as if it were ice water dripping from freshly melted ice, rapidly robbing the body of its temperature!
The visible cold air that rushed at him, even more, indicated an absolute disaster!
Looking back at the Sunflower, Hong Lei found that at this moment, the Sunflower had condensed another energy ball!
This rain brought rich darkness energy!
Or rather, this unusual freezing rain has been completely permeated by darkness energy!
Standing by the window area, as Hong Lei's breathing hitched, he could see that on the battlefield at the Hospital entrance, those Armed Police were also significantly affected by this sudden torrential freezing rain!
Under the sweeping cold temperature, the gunfire was far less dense than it was at the beginning.
The Zombie charge had also clearly advanced by one level!
The hot weapon defense line was in imminent danger!
What was unexpected and perplexing was that the Zombies were not affected by the slightest bit in this cold freezing rain, and it even gave people the illusion that they had become stronger when they were in the rain curtain!
"Retreat! Get back to the cars immediately! Ensure your own safety!"
The Captain exhaled hot air and took out the walkie-talkie, calmly directing each team.
...
More than ten minutes later, the Armed Police who came for the rescue were forced to retreat from the Hospital under the double pressure of Zombies and freezing rain...
"There are still living people inside the Hospital! How can you run away?!"
"Help, save us!"
Many survivors who had been watching this scene from the windows were unable to accept the current situation!
Some people who had chosen to escape the Hospital earlier had already bypassed the front door from other parts of the Hospital and climbed over the wall to leave.
However, many people were slow and directly ran into the Hospital's Zombies who had wandered back unconsciously after fighting with the Army!
...
"One, two, three..."
In the Hospital room on the fourth floor, Hong Lei was like a diligent farmer, bending down to pick up the little suns one by one.
During the time covered by the freezing rain, he had obtained a total of 12 energy points!
After getting these energy points, he immediately turned to the System panel and exchanged them for two Pea Shooters and one Potato Mine.
[Potato Mine]: After being thrown by the Host, it can cause a moderate explosion without a fuse.
This thing is no different from a hand grenade for Hong Lei.
However, compared to a hand grenade, the operation steps are much simpler; you just need to throw it like a stone.
It's a shame it's a one-time use item, otherwise, he would have tested its power.
...
"Ha ~ Was I asleep?" After Hong Lei pulled out all the green plants from the flower pots in the Hospital room and planted the plants produced by the System, the mother and daughter woke up one after another.
"Well, you should have been too tired."
Hong Lei didn't mention that they had been drugged.
Although it didn't cause any danger, if this matter was brought up, they would more or less have some psychological trauma.
"Something happened while you were sleeping."
Hong Lei did not hide the matter of the Zombies but directly informed them in his own way.
Furthermore, he also let the two of them look out the window to see the situation below.
"This, how could it suddenly become like this?!"
His wife, Jiang Qun, covered her mouth, her tone filled with a hint of fear.
"There's no related news on the internet."
His daughter held her telephone, opened the major news outlets, and found no reports at all about what they were currently experiencing!
Logically, their experience was enough to top international trending topics within a few hours!
But, there was nothing, no information at all!
"Can't even get into the group chat."
Speaking of this, Hong Yunyan refreshed her telephone signal, and it finally showed no signal.
"Let's go, we should go out."
Hong Lei distributed three Pea Shooters, one pot each, to his wife, daughter, and himself.
In addition, Hong Lei also had a Potato Mine in his pocket.
As for the Sunflower, for convenience, Hong Lei gave it to his wife to hold.
"What is this?"
"Bodyguards that can protect your safety."
"Husband, are we just going out like this? If we wait for a while, will the situation be better?"
His wife, Jiang Qun, obviously hadn't recovered from the shock of seeing Zombies eating Humans from the window just now.
"The Army has retreated; if we wait any longer, the situation will only get worse."
"You two just follow behind me, and I'll take you home."
"Dad, I think we should still dismantle that chair and each take a chair leg. These green plants look strange and don't seem to be of any use; there's no need to bring them at all."
Hong Yunyan pointed at the chair on the ground that only had three legs left and suggested.
Hong Lei was silent for a moment.
He reached out and took off one of the chair's three legs, handing it to his daughter: "You take both for now, and then we'll see which weapon you need."
After arranging these things, Hong Lei finally came to the window area and reached out his hand.
The rain was still falling, but it wasn't as cold as before.
In fact, the disappearance of the freezing rain could be roughly judged from the Sunflower no longer producing energy at high speed.
Now that it was confirmed, Hong Lei finally decided to set off!
If it's truly as Wang Yang said, that the apocalypse is coming, then he must leave the Hospital as soon as possible now, and then collect supplies as much as possible to cope with the future uncertainty!
