The Silence

Auge!

A walker bounced off when it hit the corner of a Humvee and flew away without dying. But this caused the vehicle's mirror to be stained with black blood.

George, who was driving, sniffed and perceived that unpleasant smell just after eating, so he complained: "Damn, what bad luck."

"You could have avoided it..."

The front group chatted and soon advanced down a street that led them straight to a park. It can be said that this park still maintains its greenery, and in the moments when there were no walkers, it was a perfect place to chat or just do work.

However, with the arrival of the end of the world, there is a clear lack of management here, and now although there are green places, it is evident with the weeds that this place has deteriorated a lot.

There was a lake nearby, so if the walkers were ignored, it was a perfect place to live. "Will there be survivors here? What if we encounter a horde of walkers?"

Glenn felt uncomfortable thinking about a horde of walkers. The last time he was in a similar situation was in Washington, which he prefers to forget.

"Maybe the walkers kept moving..." Airon murmured softly, looking at the appearance of the lake not far from their position. In a wooden house on one side, cars were parked from one side to another, forming a wall around that same house.

Looking at T-dog in the turret, he looked at George and said, "Drive carefully..."

As it is something so obvious, George also saw the abnormal situation of that place. When he stepped on the accelerator, he took the radio and alerted the other vehicles.

As they approached the lake slowly, Airon also carefully observed the house they were approaching, but his face became cold as he looked at the overall situation.

The house is a large wooden building, and there is a large field next to the house, but it seems that it has not been taken care of for a long time. The cars surrounding the exterior had collapsed, and a chaotic corpse was between both cars that were in front of the door.

The atmosphere in the car was a bit cold, everyone knew that what Glenn had just said seemed to have come true. Sasha even patted Glenn on the shoulder and whispered softly, "We don't have to say such depressing things even though we know it's true..."

Airon's expression didn't change, he got out of the car and approached the side of the house, and the rest of the people also got out of various vehicles.

"Let's check the surroundings, Glenn, George, follow me."

"Understood!"

...

Ten minutes later.

The three came out of the house without any expressive expression, and although they didn't say anything, the rest of the people could still feel that feeling of loneliness and death.

"George, we need to head to another place..."

After everyone got in the cars, Airon smiled as if to ease this atmosphere and said, "At least if there were survivors in this place, maybe we can find someone else ahead."

Boom!

But just at that moment, an explosion suddenly sounded in the distance.

The sound was dull and the distance didn't seem close. When everyone followed the sound, they could only see a billow of black smoke rising slowly in the distance.

"Airon, what do we do?"

"Let's head towards that place..."

"Understood!"

Unlike the slow pace of a moment ago, Airon's convoy of Humvees advanced at great speed.

A burst of screams and curses did not make George feel sorry for his passengers, on the contrary, he accelerated with enthusiasm.

...

Some time later, the convoy headed towards the outskirts of a town, and it could be seen that this town was empty and right now there was only one house emitting black smoke and faint flames could be seen.

"Those who did this seem to be gone..."

Glenn looked towards the empty street, but he couldn't see a single walker, and that was obviously because they were all chasing the survivors.

"Wait a minute!"

Airon got out of the Humvee, ran to the corner of a street, and then pointed back: "Let's head towards that place, George!"

"Understood!"

Another five minutes later, they could already see a small horde of dozens of walkers advancing in one direction.

Ahead of them, several obviously human figures staggered forward.

"T-dog!"

"I got it!"

T-dog took out some binoculars and observed what was ahead.

...

The voice of a crying man could be heard clearly, and this was the first thing perceived by Airon's group.

"Leave me here, run fast, otherwise no one will survive."

After this voice was heard, a male voice came with strong gasps of breath. "Hoo... Shut up, we will never... Hoo, never leave you here... Hoo, we would rather die, so if you don't want us to die, keep moving forward."

Another female voice also sounded, her voice was pleasant, but her words seemed intermittent due to panting tiredness. "Damn it, you saved our lives, so we will never leave you behind."

Airon didn't try to rescue anyone for the moment, and the walkers were still far from them. He wanted to know what these people on the brink of life or death would do.

Upon hearing these people's conversation, everyone in the car turned their heads to look at Airon. Seeing that he didn't speak, they didn't urge him. These people knew very well that with Airon's decisions, if the other party was worth saving, they would definitely take action in time.

While waiting in silence for the next conversation, T-dog shouted, "There's a girl!"

"Airon, let's do it. There are still children there."

"Wait a minute, I'll take action in time..."

George was also a little nervous when he heard that there were children.

Due to the disabled man, the group in the distance moved extremely slowly, the walkers didn't move so fast, but they were still slowly approaching them.

Airon, who had been watching this situation, upon seeing that no one left any of the group of those people, nodded and said, "George, let's save them."

"Yes, sir."
