CHAPTER 35: THE BLAST AND THE AFTERMATH
THE BLAST AND THE AFTERMATH
With a grim resolve, you pull the pin and hurl the grenade towards the approaching horde. Time seems to slow as the explosive arcs through the air, its trajectory perfect despite the chaos. The grenade lands amidst the writhing mass of undead, rolling to a halt under the fetid feet of the leading zombies.
You turn away, shielding the survivor with your body just as the world erupts in a deafening roar. The blast wave hits you like a physical punch, the air thick with smoke and the shrieks of disintegrating zombies. Behind you, the tunnel entrance collapses, a torrent of dust and debris engulfing the mindless monsters in a final, choking embrace.
But the victory is short-lived. As the smoke clears, you realize the explosion has attracted attention from a different direction. From the surrounding forest, bandits emerge, their eyes glinting with malice and opportunity. They brandish weapons, their intentions unmistakably hostile.
The survivor groans, trying to sit up, but his injury is severe. You are left with a heart-pounding dilemma, your mind racing with possibilities as the bandits close in, their leader barking orders to surround you. The odds are daunting, and every choice seems fraught with peril.
