Being an otaku in the world of American comics

Bang, bang, bang… Bang, bang, bang… Bang, bang, bang, bang…

In just over a minute, Liang Yue had completely cleared out the stone wall.

As a result, all that remained between the group and the zombie horde was a trench only about 1.8 meters wide.

Calling it a trench was perhaps an overstatement, as it resembled more of a small ditch. A healthy human could easily jump across it with a little effort.

However, for the zombies on the other side, this small ditch was now a chasm!

With the stone wall gone, nothing stood in the way of the zombie horde, and they immediately surged towards the group, who were now within reach.

Then, these brainless corpses simply fell into the ditch.

They kept coming, one after another, without any fear…

Piling up like water cascading down a cliff, they plunged headfirst with flailing limbs, crashing heavily into the surging sea.

It was like a waterfall of flesh and blood made up of corpses!

The others watched in a daze, a sense of loss washing over them.

Liang Yue, however, wasn't idle. With a flick of his wrist, he swapped the pickaxe for a pistol.

Bang!

A fat, middle-aged zombie with a shoehorn-shaped face and a bald patch on his head had his head blown off with a single shot.

A large amount of black blood, mixed with mottled yellowish-white matter, sprayed towards the zombie horde behind.

Of course, whether or not the headshot was the main point, the sudden gunshot reignited the enthusiasm of the zombie horde on the other side.

Those zombies that were lagging behind in the horde, looking around and hesitating to come over, immediately rushed forward like a group of elderly athletes who had heard the starting gun, dragging their stiff legs.

Bang!

"Make some more noise! If we clear these things out sooner, we can move over here earlier."

After blowing another zombie's head off, Liang Yue turned to Takashi Komuro and Hirano Kota.

These two were now equipped with firearms, one with a shotgun and the other with a sniper rifle. Not only were they powerful, but the sound of the gunshots was almost unrivaled by any other type of conventional firearm.

They were perfect for attracting zombies!

Boom! Thump! ~

Boom! Boom! ~ Thump! Thump! ~

…

And so, as a series of muffled and loud gunshots echoed through the air, more and more zombies began to surge in from afar.

Then, heedless of their lives, they filled the ditch in front of the group.

The surging sea was like a giant abyss, accepting the falling zombies without hesitation. In the blink of an eye, they were swept into the sea, never to be seen again.

Seeing such a unique method of killing monsters, Takashi Komuro and Hirano Kota seemed to be having fun.

While repeatedly pulling the triggers, they later opened their mouths and roared at the zombie horde with a chuunibyou-esque fervor.

Shoot, roar, shoot, roar~

Liang Yue, with a face full of black lines, could somewhat understand their feelings.

After all, they were originally just a group of naive high school students, immersed in the most beautiful campus life of their lives.

Then, one day, this life was interrupted, and so many undead monsters that wanted to eat them appeared around them.

Former classmates, friends, relatives, and neighbors had all turned into man-eating monsters. Social order had collapsed almost instantly, and they lived in fear every day, naturally accumulating a lot of negative emotions in their hearts.

The current roar was more like a means of emotional release.

Thinking about it this way, Liang Yue could vaguely feel a trace of excitement from them.

Even the women beside him seemed to be infected by Takashi Komuro and Hirano Kota, and joined the roaring ranks.

Even the originally cute and adorable Shizuka-sensei wore a look of shared hatred, and in her anger, she even picked up a stone from the ground and threw it with all her might at the zombie horde.

Then, this blonde beauty, due to being too close and losing her balance, was almost dragged into the ditch by her J-cup breasts~

Fortunately, Liang Yue was nearby and quickly pulled Shizuka-sensei back into his arms.

…

After a period of dry mouth and tongue, everyone gradually calmed down.

Saya Takagi, with her arms crossed, looked at the trench in front of her with shining eyes, as if she was thinking about some amazing plan.

"Ishii, I was thinking, this trench, can we…"

"Keep it? Then we just need to find a piece of iron plate or make a mechanism, and cover it when we need to pass. When zombies attack, we just remove it. This is equivalent to an infinite moat?"

Looking at the pink-haired girl beside him, Liang Yue continued her train of thought with a knowing expression.

"Is that what you were thinking from the beginning? Hmm~ Were you observing the bridge's load-bearing points earlier?"

Seeing his appearance, Saya Takagi pouted and asked.

"More or less. If we don't want to damage the existing buildings, we do need to consider the load-bearing issues."

When Liang Yue chose the location to dig this trench, he naturally didn't just do it randomly, going wherever he felt like it.

After all, this sea bridge in front of him wasn't built by him brick by brick. As a native building in this Apocalypse world, it naturally needed to be constrained by the laws of physics.

So, when digging, Liang Yue also specifically checked the load-bearing pillars under the bridge to ensure that it would still be safe to drive on after the trench was dug, without filling it in.

I didn't expect this girl to notice it too. She really is the brains of the protagonist team…

Time passed by every minute and every second. On the other side of this trench, which was only 1.8 meters wide, the zombies kept surging over non-stop.

They crowded, pushed, and howled, then filled the sea one after another.

In just five or six minutes, the zombie horde on the other side had noticeably decreased, shrinking by almost a quarter.

With the loud gunshots attracting them, zombies from afar were still rushing towards this side. At this rate, they would probably be able to take this sea airport without bloodshed before long.

"Liang~ Ishii-chan, where's that bunny scout hat? Hurry up and get it out, Sensei wants to wear it!"

At this moment, Shizuka-sensei suddenly ran over from the side, like a leaping white rabbit, grabbing Liang Yue's arm with one hand and holding Hirano Kota's telescope with the other, her face full of excitement.

Judging by her expression, it seemed that this girl hadn't been affected by the previous dangerous situation at all.

"What's wrong?"

Looking at this great blonde beauty, Liang Yue asked somewhat puzzled, but he still subconsciously took out the hat from his storage space and handed it over.
