51 - The Bleak Reality of Escape World

  Night.

  As the number of people on the leaderboard continued to decrease, those teams who were slacking off during the day couldn't sit still any longer and went out to hunt zombies to increase their scores.

  This situation made it more difficult for Sophie to improve her ranking.

  Everyone was hunting zombies to increase their points, and Sophie wasn't necessarily faster than other teams, not to mention she had to run away to avoid being surrounded by hordes of zombies.

  In addition, the constant reduction in the number of people on the leaderboard meant that Sophie couldn't shake off the bottom three teams.

  After killing a zombie with a wooden spear, Sophie quickly opened the leaderboard to check her ranking.

  She was currently ranked 92nd, the third from the bottom. She only needed to rise one more place to escape the zombie horde.

  But soon, the last place disappeared from the leaderboard, and Sophie's ranking naturally became the second from the bottom.

  "How could this be..." Sophie felt a little aggrieved.

  The leaderboard seemed to be playing a joke on her, always keeping her within the bottom three.

  In addition, other teams' scores were also rising, making it difficult to climb the ranks, leaving Sophie feeling powerless and almost in tears.

  At this moment, Jason pulled Sophie into his arms: "We need to move, which direction has fewer zombies?"

  "Jason, I..." Sophie's lips trembled, her voice tinged with a sob.

  Jason realized that Sophie's emotions were off. He kissed her trembling lips to comfort her.

  Their eyes met, and Jason looked into Sophie's tearful eyes.

  "What are you afraid of when I'm here? Don't worry, I won't leave you behind."

  "Just tell me quickly, which direction has fewer zombies? I don't want to die here. I haven't had enough of the beautiful women in this world yet."

  "Pfft~." Sophie chuckled through her tears. She didn't expect Jason to still be thinking about picking up women at this time. So she wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and immediately pointed Jason in a direction.

  Jason held Sophie in one arm, carrying Kira, who was dozing on his back, and quickly fled in the direction Sophie indicated.

  In this sleepless night, the number of people on the leaderboard continued to decrease.

  But in everyone's eyes, the leaderboard was like a book of life and death.

  As long as you become one of the bottom three, it doesn't matter where you hide.

  Some people tried to hide in tall buildings, blocking the doors.

  But in the face of the endless zombie horde, the zombies piled up into mountains of corpses, climbed to the top of the buildings, and then broke through the windows to kill those inside.

  The story has been taken without consent; if you see it on Amazon, report the incident.

  Some people hid in basements, thinking they could escape the zombies' pursuit.

  But the advanced zombies were not just for show, and directly dug the hiders out of the basement.

  Unless someone had a combination like Jason and Sophie, with night reconnaissance abilities and the speed and strength to escape zombie hordes.

  Otherwise, they could only wait for death.

  In short, no one wanted to be one of the bottom three teams.

  They didn't know how long they had been running. After Sophie killed many zombies, her ranking finally rose and she was no longer one of the bottom three.

  Jason and the two women finally breathed a sigh of relief.

  "Great, the zombies are finally not chasing us anymore." Sophie's legs went weak and she fell into Jason's arms.

  Kira laughed: "I told you, we'd be fine."

  After they were safe, Kira snuggled on Jason's back, her face filled with happiness. This made her think of the good times when they hugged each other before getting into the RV.

  She actually liked this feeling of hanging on Jason.

  Jason wanted her to get down, but Kira refused.

  Jason was a little confused. He didn't know that Kira had developed a strange hobby of liking to hang on him.

  After Sophie's ranking rose, Jason immediately led the two women into a building. Soon, the pursuing zombie horde began to disperse.

  "Let's rest here for a while."

  Jason looked at Sophie. The girl's face was covered in sweat, but there was a look of joy from escaping death.

  During this time, Sophie was responsible for reconnaissance and killing zombies, which exhausted the bee-controlling girl.

  Both her mind and body were greatly depleted.

  Jason saw Sophie's hair sticking to her sweaty face and reached out to help straighten it. Then he conjured up a towel to wipe her sweat.

  "We can't be careless. Once the zombie horde disperses, Sophie, you need to continue killing zombies to improve your ranking."

  "Okay." Sophie nodded, took the towel, wiped the sweat from her cheeks, and looked at Jason with a changed expression.

  After tonight, she truly felt love for Jason.

  Only by going through life and death together can you truly experience the sense of security of having a man protect you.

  If it weren't for the wrong occasion, Sophie would want to collect the 'vehicle fare' now.

  Jason naturally didn't know what Sophie was thinking.

  What Jason was wondering now was how Sophie had survived in this copy world in her previous life. It couldn't have been David who saved her.

  Did Sophie have some ability to kill zombies that she hadn't discovered herself?

  Jason looked at the swarm of bees flying around Sophie, a thoughtful expression on his face.

  "Sophie, can your swarm evolve? Or give birth to other species..."

  "It can't evolve, and I can only control honeybees and wasps," Sophie replied.

  Jason nodded, but kept this in mind.

  "By the way, Sophie, what level is your vehicle?"

  "A-Rank. I found it in the underground garage of a flower shop."

  Sophie now completely trusted Jason and didn't hide the information about her vehicle.

  After waiting for a while, the zombie horde outside the building had dispersed.

  Jason carried Kira on his back and led Sophie to continue killing zombies.

  This time, without the pursuit and encirclement of zombie hordes, Jason and Sophie completely let go of their hands and feet to kill zombies.

  They no longer had to worry about running away after killing a few zombies.

  As long as there were no large zombie hordes with advanced zombies, there was no danger to Jason.

  Jason and Sophie's scores began to rise rapidly.

  Their ranking also began to slowly improve.

  The sky gradually brightened, and everyone finally got through the night.

  The zombies no longer gathered and began to wander around.

  Jason opened the leaderboard. Sophie had risen to 75th place, but there were only 83 teams left on the list.

  Seventeen teams had disappeared overnight.

  At this rate of death, by the fifth day, all the teams would be almost dead.

  Hiss~

  Jason gasped.

  The problem of the zombie world was here.

  Sophie was always paying attention to Jason. Seeing that Jason's face was not good, she quickly asked.

  "Jason, what's wrong?"

  Jason shook his head and didn't tell Sophie his thoughts for the time being.

  "It's nothing, Sophie, can your bee swarm find our original residence?"

  "We've been busy all night, it's time for us to go back and rest."

  The three of them were not in good condition, especially Sophie, who had consumed a lot of mental and physical strength. If it weren't for Jason carrying her to escape every time, she wouldn't even have the strength to kill zombies.

  Sophie had the help of her bee swarm, naturally knew the location of their original residence.

  So Jason carried Sophie and Kira on his back and quickly rushed back to their residence.

  The three of them ate something simple and then fell asleep on the bed.
