Chapter 73 - Mist Town

To tell the truth, Su Mo, if given a choice, really wouldn’t want to take that step.

Although the mecha was cumbersome and had many shortcomings, he really liked it, and it suited his preferences well.

It seemed he needed to recon the nearby area to see if there were any unexpected gains.

“Su Mo, take a break, everyone is almost at their limits,”

Lin Zinuo walked up to the halted mecha, raised her hand, and patted the thick armor while shouting.

Su Mo controlled the mecha to crouch down, then opened the cockpit and jumped down, saying to Lin Zinuo.

“I know, you guys rest here for a while, I’ll scout around.

Be careful while I’m gone.”

“Wait, isn’t it too dangerous for you to go alone?”

“It’s nothing.”

Su Mo didn’t care at all, waved his hand dismissively, and was about to walk away.

“Then take the mecha.”

Lin Zinuo instinctively reached out and grabbed Su Mo’s shoulder, pulling him back.

Su Mo paused slightly and said,

“The fuel is almost depleted, I’ll just scout nearby, I won’t go far.”

“Ah, why is it out of fuel at a time like this?

Then take this,”

Lin Zinuo handed her rifle to Su Mo and then pulled out a hand grenade from her pocket, placing it directly into Su Mo’s hand.

Su Mo looked at the weapons in his hand, was silent for a second, then put the hand grenade in his pocket, and sincerely thanked her,

“Thank you.”

“No need for thanks, just be careful.

If anything happens, fire your gun, and we will come to support you,”

Lin Zinuo repeatedly instructed Su Mo, fearing he might encounter some accidents.

“I understand.”

Su Mo turned and left.

Lin Zinuo stood there, watching Su Mo’s figure gradually obscured by the mist, appearing somewhat distracted.

“Sister Zinuo!”

Zhou Qian suddenly popped up beside Lin Zinuo, startling her with her shout.

“Ah, Zhou Qian, what are you doing?”

“Hee hee!

Stop looking, he’s already far away.

Since when are you so worried about him, afraid something might happen to him?

I remember someone used to grit their teeth in anger every time his name came up,”

“Go on, stop talking nonsense,”

Lin Zinuo, a bit annoyed, reached out to tickle Zhou Qian.

“Stop, stop, my bad…”

Meanwhile, not long after Su Mo walked out, the surrounding mist began to lighten.

This surprised him; it turned out they had already reached the edge of the mist.

Moreover, the surrounding trees began to thin out, indicating they were about to leave the forest.

Su Mo raised his gun, cautiously moving forward.

A moment later, he successfully exited the forest.

A seaside town entered his view in the distance, with quite a few zombies wandering outside, but fortunately, he saw no sign of Bai Ze.

Su Mo cautiously observed a bit longer, his expression fluctuating slightly as his eyes kept shifting.

Soon after, Su Mo made a very bold decision; he circled to the left to get a more comprehensive view of the town.

In the mist zone, Zhou Qian and the others gathered to rest, with several girls so tired they were dozing off.

Lin Zinuo held her rifle on guard.

Every so often, she would glance in the direction Su Mo left, murmuring worriedly, “Why hasn’t that guy come back yet?

Could something have happened?”

At that moment, footsteps sounded through the mist.

“Who is it!”

Lin Zinuo tensely raised her gun.

“It’s me.”

Su Mo’s voice came from within the mist.

“You’re finally back, did you find anything?”

Lin Zinuo let out a sigh of relief.

“Yes, gather everyone.”

Su Mo nodded solemnly, although he had only seen zombies.

But no matter how one put it, it was still a town.

“Everyone, please get up.”

Lin Zinuo turned and shouted to the people dozing off.

Zhou Qian and the others immediately became alert, subconsciously gripping their guns tighter.

“Sister Zinuo, what’s wrong?”

“Su Mo has returned from scouting.

Let’s all have a quick meeting.”

“Okay.”

Soon, everyone gathered around, their eyes focused on Su Mo.

Su Mo briefly described the situation, “I just did a reconnaissance.

Just a short walk ahead, we will walk out of the mist, and also out of the forest.

Additionally, there’s a coastal town in the outer area.”

“A town?

Is it occupied by another guild?”

Zhou Qian asked excitedly.

“It should not be.

There are many zombies wandering outside the town.

If it were occupied by a guild, they would have cleared them out.”

“Ah, this…”

Qin Wang and others were somewhat disappointed, thinking they had reached a safe zone.

After hearing Su Mo’s words, Lin Zinuo pondered for a while and asked, “Su Mo, do you think we have a chance to attack that town?”

“Ah!

Sister Zinuo, are you joking?

The fifteen of us to attack that town?”

Zhou Qian and the others suddenly lost all drowsiness, nearly in shock.

“Theoretically, it’s not impossible, considering we still have plenty of ammunition for light weapons.

Plus, we have a Mecha!

Although it’s almost out of fuel, it still has combat capabilities.

Moreover, if we take over that town, the benefits are substantial.

We can find some supplies.

If we’re lucky, we might even be able to rest and recover in the town, and also…..”

Su Mo truly felt this way, but since he wasn’t the commander, he hesitated to openly express this stance.

“And also what?”

Zhou Qian and others curiously looked at Su Mo.

“Although I didn’t enter the town, I think there might be something in the coastal area of the town.”

Su Mo hesitated before saying.

“Are you saying there might be a vehicle?”

The girls at the scene got excited.

Having a vehicle meant they no longer had to walk.

“It’s just a possibility.”

Su Mo was not totally certain, as he feared alarming something prematurely; he only saw some dark spots.

“In that case, let’s not discuss those details.

It’s settled, we are attacking that town.

Let’s set off!!”

Lin Zinuo was not indecisive.

“Okay!”

Su Mo immediately climbed onto the Mecha, entering the cockpit.

He looked at the fuel warning icon on the display screen.

Silently praying for the power, hoping it wouldn’t cut out too soon.

Then Su Mo pulled the control lever.

Click!

The Mecha, which had been crouched down, rose up and headed towards the town.

Shortly after, Su Mo and his team reached the periphery of the town.

The wandering zombies noticed them and charged over crazily.

Su Mo drove the Mecha like a bulldozer, sweeping them away, while Lin Zinuo and the others raised their guns, mowing down some remaining zombies.

The team coordinated seamlessly as they fought their way toward the town.

“These zombies, compared to Bai Ze, are just nothing, so easy to kill.”

Qin Wang and others shouted excitedly.

“Although zombies are the lowest level of monsters, we shouldn’t take them lightly.

Among them, some have evolved to a more advanced level.”

Lin Zinuo constantly reminded everyone.

Su Mo agreed with Lin Zinuo’s words.

Zombies that have evolved to have distinct forms could be even more dangerous than Bai Ze.
