Chapter 4 - Whatever, Just Ram Them!



Chapter 4: Whatever, Just Ram Them!

“So fast??”

Jiang Cheng was slightly surprised as he looked at the few red dots marked on the phone’s map.

But after just a quick glance, he stopped looking. The nearest safe place was still several hundred kilometers away from him, so what was the point of checking further?

He couldn’t help but roll his eyes and said, “Jarvis, I meant find a relatively safe place that I can reach today. The places you’ve found—I can’t get to them in my current situation.”

“Apologies, sir, I will search again immediately,” Jarvis responded, his voice tinged with a hint of apology.

This time, it didn’t take long either. Within just a few seconds, Jarvis’s voice rang out again.

“Sir, I’ve found several relatively safe places that you can reach today. They are:

– A five-star hotel, Hills, 70 kilometers away.

– Shangbin No. 15 High School, 100 kilometers away.

– Daxi Street Supermarket, 57 kilometers away.

– Wangyue Lake Villa District, 92 kilometers away.

– Xiaoshan Military Base, 120 kilometers east of the city.

– Shangbin International Airport, 125 kilometers south of the city.

– Wangyue Mountain Tourist Area, 127 kilometers north of the city.

“The closest one is still 57 kilometers away?”

That’s not close at all!

But there was no other choice. Even if it were 100 kilometers away, as long as it was temporarily safe, he would have to go.

After briefly reviewing the locations marked on the map, he finally decided, “Let’s go to the Daxi Street Supermarket, 57 kilometers away!”

The reason for choosing this location was simple: it was a large, five-story comprehensive supermarket!

According to the map description, this supermarket not only sold food, water, clothes, and blankets—essential daily necessities—but also other smart devices.

If he went there, he wouldn’t have to worry about food and water at all!

There were also clothing stores and blankets, so there would be no concern about having clean clothes or a temporary place to stay.

Most importantly, this location was the closest to him, and the building wasn’t too tall. It also had multiple emergency exits, so even if zombies broke in, he could easily escape.

These advantages were unmatched by the other locations.

After making his decision, Jiang Cheng was about to start the vehicle and leave. However, when he looked up at the vehicles blocking his path in front, he frowned and immediately asked the system, “System, how is the crash resistance of the LV1 armored vehicle? Can it force its way out of here?”

To leave, he would have to force these vehicles out of the way, creating a path wide enough for him to get out. He was a bit worried about whether his armored vehicle’s crash resistance could handle it.

Ding! “Host, you needn’t worry about this. The LV1 armored vehicle’s body is made of 12.5mm thick PRO500 alloy armored bulletproof steel, with an S-level crash resistance rating. It can withstand attacks from Type 56 armor-piercing bullets and can absorb impacts at speeds of up to 150 kilometers per hour without damage.”

The system’s voice explained the crash resistance capabilities of the armored vehicle in simple terms.

However, Jiang Cheng was a bit confused after hearing this, as he could barely understand any of the technical jargon. But from the system’s tone, it seemed like this armored vehicle had some serious crash resistance!

“S-level crash resistance—just hearing that sounds impressive! Whatever, just ram them!”

With no worries about the armored vehicle’s crash resistance, Jiang Cheng had no more concerns. He immediately turned the key and started the vehicle.

Vroom—

As the car vibrated, the powerful roar of the engine suddenly erupted, as if a beast was growling, creating a highly impactful sound.

But just then, Jarvis’s voice rang out, “Sir, your fuel tank does not contain enough gasoline to reach your destination. Would you like me to locate a gas station for you?”

“What the hell, out of gas?”

Jiang Cheng froze, and immediately glanced at the fuel gauge, noticing that the fuel level was almost empty. He slightly tugged at the corner of his mouth.

At this moment, because he started the vehicle, the deafening roar of the engine had already attracted the attention of the surrounding zombies.

Several zombies, dragging their twisted bodies, had been wandering past his vehicle, but now they turned with ferocious expressions and began charging at his car.

Even the zombies several hundred meters away, who had been chasing the fleeing humans, turned back like starving wolves and started rushing toward him.

It was like dropping a stone into a calm lake, creating waves of chaos!

Seeing the horde of zombies surging towards him from all directions, Jiang Cheng felt a shiver run down his spine. Without daring to delay, he stomped on the gas pedal.

Vroom—

As the engine roared, the armored vehicle truly seemed to become a ferocious beast, charging forward with tremendous force.

It directly smashed into a few zombies in front of it and then barreled towards the vehicles blocking the way. At the same time, Jiang Cheng shouted, “Jarvis, find me a gas station right now!”

Boom—

As soon as he finished speaking, a loud crash echoed. The armored vehicle had slammed into the cars blocking the way, and the bodies of those cars were directly dented. With a screeching sound of tires skidding across the pavement, they were pushed aside by the armored vehicle!

Despite ramming into these vehicles, the armored vehicle, thanks to its powerful engine, didn’t slow down at all. It pushed the blocking cars over ten meters to the side before finally forcing its way out of the street!

As for the zombies that blocked its path, they were crushed into pulp by the cars that the armored vehicle had shoved aside!

“Armored vehicle, awesome!!”

Jiang Cheng, who had just rammed into more than twenty cars without feeling any pressure, was now showing an excited expression.

“Sir, I’ve found two gas stations for you—one is 2 kilometers away, and the other is 8 kilometers away.”

At this moment, Jarvis’s voice rang out.

“Two kilometers … that’s too close to the city center. Let’s go to the one 8 kilometers away. Set the navigation route!” Jiang Cheng decided while driving the armored vehicle.

Jarvis not only provided the locations of the two gas stations but also detailed information about them.

The gas station 2 kilometers away was located near a street in the city center, surrounded by residential areas and parks. The population density was too high—if zombies surrounded him there, it wouldn’t just be impossible to refuel; they might even flip his car.

The station 8 kilometers away, though a bit farther, was also in the city but wasn’t near any densely populated areas, residential neighborhoods, or parks.

Even if there were zombies, they wouldn’t be many!

At least from the information provided, the gas station 8 kilometers away was definitely safer than the one 2 kilometers away.

“Certainly, sir. The route has been mapped out for you!”

Jarvis responded, and the navigation route was displayed on the car’s dashboard system.

Vroom—

Jiang Cheng glanced at it, then turned the steering wheel and drove the armored vehicle out of the congested lane, following the route Jarvis had planned for him.

As he drove along, Jiang Cheng could clearly see that the city had completely descended into chaos!
