?Chapter 341: Chapter 341 Entertainment Spirit Chapter 341: Chapter 341 Entertainment Spirit “Nobody knows what’s going on,” Zhao Leisong said wearily, leaning back in his seat amidst the peaceful drive of the seven billion, his eyes full of confusion. “The news mentioned a small disturbance, and the government said there was no need for the public to panic, but rumors of a biohazard experiment failure spread through the streets at the same time. Then people told us to evacuate the city and seek refuge in the nearest shelters. I’m still a bit dazed and have no idea what’s happened. This is like something out of a movie…”

I had no doubt about what this honest man said. As an ordinary citizen, it was simply not possible to have access to much information.

“Then why did you stay in the city? It seems like everyone has already evacuated, right?” I asked curiously.

A bitter smile appeared on Zhao Leisong’s face: “How could everyone evacuate? Only about seventy percent managed to get out—that’s the best-case scenario. The remaining thirty percent were left in the city to fend for themselves, since infected citizens had already started to appear, and those organizing the evacuation couldn’t risk it…”

So that was it.

It was not hard to imagine. Even with a planned evacuation, it was impossible to move millions from a large city to safety, especially in the face of a highly contagious biohazard crisis. It wouldn’t be possible without leaving some unfortunate people behind, probably including Zhao Leisong’s family. At the start, there must have been many people left in the city, but looking at it now… indeed, it was a disaster.

What he described next indeed matched this narrative. When a virus started to spread, human beings, as social animals, often found themselves helpless, regardless of their place at the top of the food chain. Those remaining in the city were increasingly surrounded by zombies amidst growing panic, until they themselves turned into one of them. At first, there were many conflicts, but ironically, it didn’t take long for the number of survivors to dwindle to the point where not even a single armed conflict could break out…

It wasn’t that no one tried to escape the city, but without vehicles, fleeing into the wilderness was merely a temporary reprieve.

Under such circumstances, that Zhao Leisong’s family managed to hold on till now could only be described as a miracle. This made me look with even greater respect at the somewhat dull man in the back seat. To describe it a bit melodramatically, he’s a father and husband with the makings of a hero, although he’s not as powerful as the typical hero unit… cough, cough.

“We just wanted to come out and look for some food, but we didn’t expect those things to have wandered over here. Thankfully, you guys helped us,” Zhao Leisong said, his gaze occasionally drifting toward the driver’s seat. After all, a car without a fuel gauge or an odometer was exceedingly curious.

“We came here to deal with this situation,” I said, noticing the unmistakable curiosity in his eyes. There was no need for secrecy here; this wasn’t Earth, and we had no intention of settling in this place. There was no danger in revealing our identities, so there was no need to stay low-profile. “According to our observations, the whole world has fallen into this bizarre disaster. If nothing changes, human civilization might be destroyed within the next five years. Those ‘final refuges’ built only to withstand wars for one nation are not going to be very effective in the face of such a massive catastrophe for the entire race.”

My words sounded to Zhao Leisong like a fantasy. Just the three of us, including a young girl like a Miss and a little girl with red eyes barely eleven years old—it was a stretch to say we could save the world.
