Novel Bin Chapter 280
Chapter 280: 280
We took a small breather when we drove back to the gate and I pulled out candy bars from one of my pockets. I then handed them to the person next to me to be passed on though we’d need to cut them in half so there would be enough for everybody. Eating something high in calories could replenish our spent energy because we exerted not only our bodies but also our minds. It was a close call earlier because the amount of noise I surmised earlier did not equal the amount of zombies we encountered. Most of what we encounter are always making small guttural noises or growls but I think that some of them aren’t making any and are just silent.
“We just need to be extra extra extra careful next time. It would be awesome in a movie but it would not be as great on my pants in real life.” I said to the group.
“How about using mirrors next time?” Kaley suggested.
“That would be great since we don’t have our drones to scout ahead. Did you perhaps bring one?” I asked.
“It’s in my pack at base though. What are we gonna do about the main building and the last wings?” Kaley asked.
“We need to-” but I saw Mike raising his hand.
“Sir, I actually sprained my foot earlier. I think it would be better if I’d be left to guard in the truck instead…” Mike embarrassingly said.
“F.u.c.k.i.n.g… tell me when something like an injury happens! We have kits here to help ease the pain. Don’t bear through it and which foot is it?” I asked as I opened my kit and Kaley stood up to assist.
“N-no I’m not bearing through it. I just felt a bit of pain when we started to rest. I didn’t feel it earlier.” Mike replied.
“Okay, first things first…” I trailed but everyone saw my gleaming eyes.
“Sir?” Mike shuddered.
I quickly backhanded his foot that he says is sprained.
“AH!” Mike winced.
“Good, it’s reall- OW!” Kaley smacked me in the head.
“Why did you have to do that?!” She pushed me to the side.
“Hey, he could be pretending. I would too after that shit.” I replied, scratching my head.
“…” everyone else.
“There’s ways to check it aside from your methods!” Kaley started to slowly untie his shoes.
“Hey, I’m a spec ops agent, not medical staff. I could provide treatment but I have my reservations.” I replied.
“You’re spec ops sir?!” Mike and the rest of the soldiers exclaimed.
“No, I lied.” I quickly said then Kaley turned around hiding her smile from her glare.
“…” everyone else.
“Technically though, we’re a special unit now.” I smiled as Jared was dying laughing on the side with Tatiana.
“But sir, if you’re not military, what do you do for a living before? Your weapons and a few more things you have is much better than what we have. The president’s soldiers have a few attachments bu-” then one of Rod’s soldiers which I think is named Mando judging from his uniform cuts them off.
“Actually, he’s the one that gave us upgrades on our guns…” Mando is scratching the side of his face.
Mike and Cruz were speechless. Their jaws hit the ground when they found out that I’m just a simple businessman that does prepping on the side.
Kaley started to touch the skin around Mike’s injury and she’s looking for places where it is a bit tender than normal. After that, Kaley started to move his foot slowly in different positions to check and understand which positions are the ones that cause pain or discomfort.
Mike winced very few times and luckily, his injury is not severe.
We don’t have ice packs at the moment so Kaley started to bandage it tight enough to stop the swelling but not too tight to stop circulation. She started at the end farthest from the heart and the correct way to put it since you wrap it around different ways and which side is injured dictates how sometimes. After that, I handed him an Ibuprofen to manage the pain of his ankle.
“Thank you sir and ma’am.” Mike bowed his head and Kaley and I smiled.
“For now, switch with Mando and guard the gate with Jared. Climb the roof of the guardhouse using the truck so in case a huge number of them appears, you’d be all safe in higher ground.” I said.
“Bro, what’s the problem being inside the truck?” Jared asked.
“Well, we’ll be driving it at the back of the hospital now, we’d need to turn the generators on so we’d have power inside the hospital. Also…” I then told him that the noise would attract most of them outside which is an ideal place to kill them because of what happened earlier.
Jared and the rest helped Mike reach the roof carefully.
“Just radio in dude if anything happens.” I said to Jared before we drove to the back of the hospital.
There’s still the ones that got skewered when they tried to run through the fences so we stabbed their heads first before we drove around. Quite a few were still pacing around and they got attracted from the noise of the engine but we let them reach us theb we killed them in close quarters.
My katana is covered in blood a few inches from the tip since I’ve just been stabbing straight down because we’re still at the back of the truck, in an elevated position.
We’re slowly killing them while the truck would move forward a few times so that none of them would crowd the front of it so we could easily drive away. We circled around the hospital twice before we managed to kill several dozen of them easily just by driving around. The only thing that we lost here is the amount of fuel it took to go around which is not as significant compared to our safety.
My eyes gleamed when I saw a dead guard carrying a Glock 17 in its hip holster. If it’s chambered in 9mm, I could make use of its magazines and bullets since Kaley and I’s Maxim 9s uses Glock 17 magazines. I looked at the small crowd following us which is now thinned considerably so I jumped down after tapping the roof of the truck.
“We can take them on now.” I said after looking at their hesitant faces.
I took a single step and slashed horizontally from left to right.
A head rolled over to the side and I moved around the crowd following us so they would be divided among us. I juked to the right to dismember the hands that followed me but its owner’s head followed shortly. Tatiana moved to the other side to do the same thing that I did though her slashed now are more violent than earlier.
“Had too much sugar?” I said out loud but she just shook her head in amus.e.m.e.nt.
The soldiers with us plowed through in the middle so Tatiana and I slowly advanced to match their speed. Nikolas and Kaley were still on the truck where Nikolas is assuming Jared’s position while Kaley is having too much fun with her new gun. She managed to use it earlier and she liked the way that it kicks less and how compact it is. I would just raise my hand to signal her if she’s shooting too much of them down so we’d save more bullets.
The crowd following us were now just dismembered parts strewn together though I kicked the guard I found earlier to the side so the gun I would be taking from him wouldn’t be stained as much. I removed his belt and took everything from it. Aside from the Glock 17 and the extra magazine still full of bullets, I also got an extending baton, pepper spray, handcuffs, a small flashlight, his ID, a whistle, and a lighter.
The soldiers with me also checked the belongings of the others we killed and the most valuable thing that they manage to scrounge up is a nail clipper.
“If he’s looking for stuff, he’d find the best one since he could sniff it out. Better luck next time.” Tatiana laughed at the soldier’s disappointed faces as I approached Kaley.
“Here, refill that extended magazine you brought.” I handed the extra magazine to Kaley while I kept the Glock 17. I wiped it a few times and found it funny that the guard doesn’t have a round in the chamber.
The truck is now parked in a position that it could quickly take off at the back of the hospital. I checked the fire exit first and I pulled the door and shone a flashlight over it since it’s dark. The generator room is inside and I have the gasoline cans ready.
A lone figure turned around and made the same running motion as earlier. It’s coming closer and closer and the people behind me are already trying to warn me of it. They thought I was frozen in place but I had other plans.
The moment it lunged its body towards me, I gripped the door handle hard and slammed it on its face.
*THUD*
The sound it produced when the door collided with it made you think that it was hit by a truck and sent to reincarnate in another world having OP powers, crazy plot armor, and a harem with several beauties.
The door got dented and I quickly opened it, blade and gun drawn.
I was ready to cut it to several pieces but it turns out that its head got crushed from the impact.
I just flicked an Ibuprofen towards it and said, “It’s for the pain.”
