Chapter 266 The Last Shield
The woman didn’t notice the danger at all and kept running straight toward the zombies ahead.
Just then, a shadow shed over Theresa’s head.
The zombie king leapt into the air and lunged straight at her.

Theresa was about to pull out her knife for a life–or–death fight when she suddenly dodged to the right and shouted at the woman, “Get out of the way!”
She had just seen a huge piece of pipe falling straight toward the woman’s head.
It was going tond right where they were standing.
<i>Boom</i>!
Theresa dove to the side, and the pipe came crashing down–on the zombie king in front of her.
It pinned the zombie king to the ground.
<i>Roar- </i>
The zombie king’s two heads let out a terrible scream as they were crushed.
Theresa threw a knife, finishing off the aberrant zombie king in one clean strike.
Right after, she turned to check on the woman.
If nothing had gone wrong, the woman should’ve been dead.
But Theresa saw her kneeling on the ground. The pipe had only grazed her head–it had been held up by
a zombie.
The pipe hadnded on that zombie’s head. It was wearing a safety helmet, and a steel bar had gone straight through the top of its head, pinning it in ce. The helmet had cracked all over.
For some reason, Theresa’s chest tightened.
She knew it had to be a coincidence.
The zombie had just happened to be hit by the pipe. It had just happened to be standing in front of the
woman<b>. </b>
But… it was her dad.
<b>He </b>had taken the blow for her.
<b>Theresa </b>remembered the woman telling her that when she was taken to the hospital, her dad had been taken away by the police.
So, after the zombie virus outbreak, her dad must’ve fought his way back here right away… to find his <b>daughter</b><b>. </b>

No matter what, he never stopped thinking about her.
“Dad!”
“Dad!”

The woman, still kneeling andpletely unharmed, stared at the man in front of her and started crawling toward him.
“Let’s go.” Theresa jumped over and grabbed her.
“Dr. Larson, that’s my dad! That’s my dad,” the woman said.
“Your dad wants you toe with me now.” Theresa dragged her away.
Zombies were closing in from all sides.
The woman’s dad looked in Theresa’s direction. With a loud crash, he fell to the ground while still holding up the pipe, blocking a group of zombies from reaching his daughter.
“Dad-”
“Dad-”
“Dad-”
The woman, being pulled away by Theresa, looked back and saw her dad fall. She couldn’t see his body
anymore.
Something clicked in her head. She stopped struggling and quietly followed Theresa without saying a word.
They fought through the horde, cutting a bloody path out.
Eventually, they made it past the crowd of zombies.
A group of men stood waiting ahead, lined up and ready.
Kyle and the others saw Theresa and her grouping back and rushed up to cover them, taking out the remaining zombies.
Everyone made it back to the vehicle.
As soon as they got in, a loud boom went off behind them.
A massive st came from the direction of the hospital. Several buildings copsed in a row from a huge, controlled explosion.
The sound of the st drew all the nearby zombies away. They all turned and started heading toward the hospital.

Just like that, the pressure from the zombie crowd around them was gone.
The woman stared at the hospital, saying nothing. Tears ran down her face.
“Mom!”

The little kids they had rescued all gathered around her. They saw her crying and tried tofort her.
She looked down at them. “My dad… is gone.”
The kids didn’t really understand what that meant.
They had grown up this past year without ever having a dad.
“What’s wrong?” Quentin looked at Theresa, who seemed upset. “Missing your dad?”
Theresa rolled her eyes. “Shut up. I don’t have a dad.”
Quentin’s eyes lit up. “Then how about I be your dad? Make up for the fatherly love you missed.”
Theresa didn’t answer.
She grabbed his broken leg and twisted it.

His injury got worse.

During this mission, Landon’s and Den’s teams had both suffered losses.
They had all gone deep into the city.
Even though their missions weren’t as hard as Theresa’s, for the weaker teams, it was still a big challenge.
