Looking closely, we saw Jake pinned against the wall by three zombies, being torn apart.
His right arm had already been ripped off, blood gushing out like a fountain.
Seeing us appear, a glimmer of hope suddenly flashed in Jake’s eyes.
“Alex! Save me!*
He struggled desperately to reach out his remaining left hand towards us, his nails
leaving bloody scratches on the ground.
I stopped in my tracks, just coldly watching him struggle in his death throes.
Jake’s abdomen had been torn open, his intestines spilling out, yet he was still clinging to
life.
The deputy commander gritted his teeth, his gun already aimed at Jake’s head.
“You beast! I’ll f*cking kill you with one shot!”
Just as he was about to pull the trigger, I raised my hand to stop him.
“Don’t do that…”
Hearing this, the deputy looked at me in shock:
“Alex, have you forgotten how this traitor treated us? Don’t tell me you still want to spare
his miserable life?”
I immediately waved my hand with a smile.
“If you shoot him, wouldn’t that be giving him a quick death? I think… letting him taste what it’s like to be torn apart alive is the fate a traitor deserves!”
Hearing this, my teammates all expressed their agreement.
But at this moment. Jake, who still had a breath left in him, suddenly burst into a

ferocious laugh:
“If you don’t save me… I’ll destroy the sample! Don’t dream about developing new
anti–virus serum in the future!”
He clutched the sample tightly to his chest, his eyes full of malice.
I chuckled lightly, slowly pulling an identical sample tube from my pocket: “You mean
this?”

“No… impossible!” Jake’s eyes widened, the muscles on his face twitching uncontrollably,
“Then… then what did you give me earlier…”
“A fake,” I waved the sample tube in my hand.
“How could I entrust something so important to an unreliable person like you? I’ve been
wary of you from the start.”
I paused, looking down at his terrified expression: “Jake… what you’re holding is actually
a lure I developed. That’s why even though you escaped along the safest route, you still
encountered zombies.”
Hearing this, Jake wanted to say something more.
But in the next second, more zombies surged out from the darkness, engulfing him like a
tidal wave.
Piercing screams echoed through the corridor, accompanied by the sound of flesh being
torn apart.
Soon, everything fell silent again.
