Part 29:
Chen landed on the top of the train. Angry screeches and screams can be heard from the horde as they come surrounding the train. They smacked their claws on the train fiercely, attempting to break down the barrier and get to Chen. More and more ghouls came surrounding the train; the ones closest to the train were buried and stepped on by the overwhelming ghouls behind them. They stacked higher and higher, waving their claws wildly, trying to tear a piece out of Chen. Chen knew he did not have much time before the horde could reach him. In front of Chen there were only 3 ghouls, he only have so much time to jump off the train and get in the metro station control room.
The feral ghoul roamer came charging at him, Chen crouched down and swung his sword upwards, slicing off the roamer's arm. But the damage deemed ineffective as the roamer kept on trying to hurt Chen anyway it can as if it felt no pain. The Roamer tried to bite, Chen side stepped and smashed its skull with a knee strike. The ghoul fell lifelessly into the overwhelming horde down below. Then Chen saw a strangely green glow in his path, and it grew brighter and brighter. With a horrifying scream, the glow appeared to be a glowing feral ghoul, it charged with the same ferocity as the last ghoul. Chen took out his pistol and took aim, and opened fire, and the bullet travelled through the pistol's barrel and hit the target's torso, and piercing its lungs.
The glowing ghoul laid down due to the damage, just when Chen attempted to take aim again, the glowing ghoul raised its arm into the air and its glow was growing brighter and brighter, then an explosion of green energy blasted from the ghoul's body. The impact knocked Chen off his feet and he was falling down into the hordes of blood thirsty feral ghouls.
Chen stabbed its sword into the train, and he was hanging in the air, the feral ghouls below him screamed and roared excitedly, then suddenly. Chen's right leg was caught by one of the feral ghouls below, and it attempted to drag him off to the ground. Chen kicked the ghoul in the face repeatedly until it let go. Then Chen jumped back on top of the train, only to realize that the glowing ghoul was right there in front of him, its wound was completely healed, it swung both of its arms towards Chen. Chen turned backwards towards the ghoul and gave a powerful kick to the ghoul's stomach, sending him flying to the horde below. Chen's path was clear, and the feral ghouls below were very close to climbing on top of the train now. Hundreds of burnt arms and hands can be seen waving wildly on top on the train. Chen ran on the train, dodging the arms and he saw that the door was only a few feet away.
The horde was chasing after him closely, both on the train and down below. Chen could hear the screams getting louder and he could feel their breath behind his back. Chen did not turn back to look, he kept on running then he jumped down to the control room's entrance, rolled inside and pressed the button to close the door.
The door was shut, right before any of the ghoul could come inside. They can be heard banging the door wildly. Chen was not sure how long this metal door can hold, but this left him an opportunity to escape. Just before Chen could turn around, he could feel a cold, wind blowing down its neck. Chen turned around and saw a feral ghoul with glowing parts sticking out of his body, staring at him. its eye were caved in, the skin are more deformed and rough compare to the average ghouls and glows with a hint of red. It was wearing a heavy metal combat armor. It looked at Chen directly at his eyes, and then it raised its arm above its head and charged towards Chen…
