Nobody noticed Jiang Liushi and Ran Xiyu leaving the Safety Zone or found any traces of the Shi Ying Squad. It was if they had disappeared from the face of Earth. At the same time, the name Jiang Liushi had instilled fear into the hearts of the Jiangning Safety Zone’s higher-ups.
“Brother Jiang, where should we go next?” Ling leaned the door and asked gently. As her power was evolving, she was becoming more like a cat. When Ling was quiet, she looked really cute. But once she was to make her move, others could sense a dangerous aura emanating from her.
“We need to find Han Yuan’s boss,” said Jiang Liushi. He was the only one they knew from the mysterious group.
“How about you? Do you want to come with us?” asked Jiang Liushi, his gaze falling at the corner of the sofa.
Peach and Wei Feifei were sitting there. Upon hearing Jiang Liushi’s words, Peach lowered her head and muttered, “Well…” Then, she looked at Wei Feifei, who actually knew what she was thinking. She knew clearly that Peach would like to go with Jiang Liushi, as for herself…although she knew that the gap between them was extremely large, she still felt it would be a good opportunity if they could stay with them for some time.
“If you’re okay with it, we’d like to come with you, at least, for the time it will take for Peach to recover. If you pass through any safety zones, then you also leave us there. May we?” said Wei Feifei.
Looking at the 17-year-old girl’s hopeful eyes, Jiang Liushi didn’t even know how to answer.
At that moment, Jiang Zhuying chimed in, “Don’t worry. My brother is very nice to beautiful girls.”
Jiang Liushi was rendered speechless and glared at his sister. In response, she just grinned.
“What are you learning all day?” asked Jiang Liushi. He wanted to reprimand his sister for her playful side.
The reason he had rescued them was due to sympathy and that they were kind-hearted. However, Jiang Zhuying’s words led to a misunderstanding, causing Peach and Wei Feifei’s faces to turn red.
Jiang Liushi tried to explain, “Don’t mind her. You can stay with my sister. When we meet suitable places to spend the night, you can make your arrangements.”
“Thank you, Captain Jiang.” Peach nodded, but she was kind of disappointed. Then, she looked up and asked. “May I call you Brother Jiang?”
“Do as you see fit,” replied Jiang Liushi. He didn’t mind about such trivial matters at all.
“Brother Jiang!” Peach shouted happily with a smile on her face.
“Brother, you…” Jiang Zhuying shook her head. In her mind, her brother was an exceptional young man with a big flaw; he didn’t know about love and everything related to it. Then, she saw Ran Xiyu going back upstairs and nodded.
‘It’s also a good thing that he’s so dense, or else things would be really complicated here. But which one will become my sister-in-law? The best scenario would be for all of them to become my sisters-in-law,’ thought Jiang Zhuying.
…
The tour bus was driven all the way south, and gradually reach a place that Jiang Liushi had never visited before the catastrophe. It was evident that the topography had changed a lot as uncommon southern plants could be seen in every direction. It was the same as in any other area, the plants had prospered in the strange environment after doomsday.
A tree by the side of the road was more 12 meters high, making the road seem as if it had been built in the middle of a jungle. It was an extraordinary sight. Only the buildings amidst the jungle would remind people that the bustling Wantou Town used to be there. It was an industrial town with a dense population and more prosperous than some smaller cities. But now, it was a paradise for mutant zombies and beasts.
“There may be survivors here. If we can find someone, we will ask where Qionghai City is,” said Jiang Liushi.
Initially, Jiang Liushi had thought that Qionghai City should be near Qiong City. But after arriving in Qiong City, they discovered that it had become a zombie-infested city. Starseed had even sensed several dangerous energy fluctuations from the dead city. If it was not necessary, Jiang Liushi didn’t want to provoke those existences.
Presently, they were lost. Wantou Town was the third town they had visited after Qiong City. If they didn’t find anyone there, they could only move on. However, ever since they had arrived in this town, Jiang Liushi felt that there should be people there as many shops in the vicinity had been ransacked.
Suddenly, they heard a burst of gunshots, which were not far away from them. At the same time, they heard zombies’ roars.
“Let’s go over there and check,” ordered Jiang Liushi.
Ying drove toward that direction, and soon they arrived in front of a shop. Outside of the shop were dozens of zombies, while inside were several survivors, fending them off. The survivors were in a precarious situation. They had used some shelves and desks to block the door, while they were shooting through the cracks. Unfortunately, they could not hit many zombies. What’s worse, the group of zombies was led by a stout and fast mutant zombie, which was quite calm.
“D*mn, this monster is waiting for our bullets to run out!”
“What can we do? Ah Dong who’s the most powerful amongst us has been injured. If we run out of bullets, the zombies will rush in and kill us all!”
The survivors were nervous. They had witnessed one of their comrades being dragged because of carelessness. The unlucky fellow was torn to pieces and eaten in the blink of an eye. Moreover, Ah Dong had a nasty scar on his arm, and he was sitting on the ground with a pale face. Beside Ah Dong was sitting a crying girl, dressed in fashionable clothes.
“Brother Dong, what should we do…” The girl asked again nervously. If Ah Dong had not been the team’s leader, she would have not gone out with them. In her mind, this task was quite easy. Never had it crossed her mind that they would meet such a malevolent existence!
In the midst of the battle, the survivors suddenly heard a shrill engine sound coming from afar.
“What is that sound? Have our comrades come to rescue us?” Someone asked, but they couldn’t see anything. Everyone’s vision was obscured by the zombies in front of them.
“Brothers! There is an intelligent mutant zombie outside! You should be careful. It controls many zombies!” shouted a man at the group outside.
Before his voice had died away, they heard a loud noise! Then, all the zombies outside the shop were sent flying like bowling pins., while a stout figure was sent through the blocked shop’s door all the way to the wall. It was the zombies’ leader! And half of its head was gone!
Everyone looked at the incredible spectacle with widened eyes. Then, they looked outside and saw a huge tour bus, parked outside the shop’s door. On its plate, the words Shi Ying could clearly be seen.
In the next second, the bus’ door opened, and a beautiful young girl walked down swiftly. Then, she rushed into the shop, only leaving afterimages. Everyone was shocked as she appeared beside the mutant zombie with a shining dagger in her hand. She stepped on the mutant zombie’s chest, cut it with precision and then pulled a blood nucleus.
“She is almost a level-2 paranormal…”
“Wow! She is powerful. But we have level-2 paranormals in our camp!”
The survivors were somewhat awed by the short-haired girl. It was rare to meet such a beautiful and powerful girl.
But who was she? Why hadn’t they seen her before?
Ah Dong struggled to stand up. “Thank you for helping us, beautiful young lady. I’m Song Hedong, the captain of this team. Where are you from? Would you like to come and visit our camp, so I can express my sincere gratitude?” asked Ah Dong with a warm smile.
In Ah Dong’s eyes was a trace of greed. After all, the short-haired girl was a pretty beautiful one. Even his boss’ girls couldn’t be compared to her.
Unexpectedly, the short-haired girl ignored and turned back to the bus. “Brother Jiang, I got the blood nucleus.”
‘Uh? The girl wasn’t the team leader?’ Ah Dong was shocked by the beautiful girl’s respectful behavior.
Shortly after, Jiang Liushi got down from the tour bus. After the upgrade, Jiang Liushi had become more handsome and emitted a mystifying aura. Plus, Ling was following behind him, which made him look more outstanding. Others felt ashamed of their inferiority!
