Lost Land (GL)

Chapter 14: The Fourteenth Night

Zhang Wan Ying saw her little act and glanced at her, not exposing her.

She also picked up a bag of instant noodles and munched on it with the Wahaha. Neither of them had eaten yesterday, so they were eating like they hadn't eaten in days.

After they finished, they both burped in unison, feeling a sense of deep satisfaction. They hadn't realized it before the apocalypse, but after the apocalypse, they realized how satisfying it was to eat to their heart's content in a safe place.

After eating and drinking their fill, Mo Ran became serious. She stood at the edge of the rooftop, overlooking the dense crowd of zombies below, her eyes narrowed.

Now, they had to figure out how to escape.

These zombies would find people on their own. This was something they hadn't noticed before. They could actually find their way from the bottom of the building to the top, even if they couldn't see, they knew there was someone behind the obstacle.

It seemed that zombies weren't completely brainless. Perhaps they had a faint glimmer of thought...

Mo Ran concentrated, a knot of worry forming in her stomach. If her guess was correct, then zombies would be even more terrifying. And the school was swarming with zombies, they couldn't stay here any longer.

There were roughly a hundred zombies downstairs, and they were still coming in and out of the collapsed iron gate. This was not a good sign.

If they wanted to escape, there were only two options: one was to fight their way out, and the other was to find another way out.

Their combined fighting power, even with weapons in hand, could only handle two or three zombies at most. So, fighting their way out was clearly impossible.

That left them with finding another way out. Mo Ran picked up a pebble and drew on the concrete floor of the rooftop, roughly sketching out the layout of the school and the surrounding area.

The school was an irregularly shaped enclosure, with two obvious gates: the front gate and the back gate.

The front gate was next to the girls' dormitory, which was in front of the boys' dormitory, which was in front of the comprehensive building, which was in front of the teaching building. It not only sounded far away, but it was actually far away.

Because the garden and the construction site behind the teaching building were the original back gate, and the iron gate that had been pushed down was the original exit.

So, what was this construction site originally?

This construction site was actually a piece of farmland that had been left uncultivated for a long time. It was by the river, and later bought by the school to build a new teaching building, which became the current construction site.

So, outside the construction site was not a street, but a river, a large river that divided the city into two halves.

The school was built by the water, which is why there was a cool breeze at night, but the river also made the environment particularly good. There were no residents nearby, it was secluded and quiet, suitable for studying.

Mo Ran had never walked through the back gate, but she knew the general layout. After all, she had been here for over three years, including the year she repeated a grade.

If they wanted to escape from the school, the safest and most convenient way would be to find a way out through the back gate. They didn't know what the situation was at the front gate, and it was close to the commercial street, which was crowded with people on weekends, never closing at night. Just thinking about it was terrifying.
