Xiao Jin struggled for over a decade in the apocalypse before perishing with the Zombie King. To her surprise, she woke up, reborn into a world without zombies.
Before she could even bother w...
Even with two steel plates, Xiao Jin could see that some meteorites were bigger than the house. If one of them were to hit her, she would definitely be turned into mincemeat.
Xiao Jin didn't really like things that involved gambling on probability.
She glanced at the time; only 15 minutes had passed. Her spiritual energy had been fully restored in the previous four hours, and if she activated 'Crystallization,' it could last for 40 minutes.
Xiao Jin didn't know if 'crystallization' could withstand the meteorite, but it was better than staying here and waiting to die.
Since she had made up her mind, Xiao Jin put away the steel plate on her head and the pool of water beneath her, only to see a huge meteorite falling from the sky right in front of her.
She suddenly darted out, and the sandpit behind her was immediately buried.
Still shaken, Xiao Jin activated her crystallized armor while putting on her mask. Damn it, was she lucky to have escaped this time?!
Without a motorcycle—its maneuverability is too poor—Xiao Jin pulled out the Shattered Shadow Blade and, while running, deflected the incoming small meteorites. Occasionally, in a moment of inattention, his clothes would get covered in falling sparks. But the fire only burned the surface of his clothes; Xiao Jin's skin remained completely unharmed.
However, Xiao Jin quickly extinguished the flames on his body in the next second.
She was wearing the purple item [Ash Feather]. When the flames landed on the item, the durability of her coat began to drop rapidly. If Xiao Jin hadn't reacted in time, her equipment would have been destroyed.
Upon realizing this, Xiao Jin instinctively retrieved the Shattered Shadow into his spatial storage and replaced it with the Recurve Blade at his waist.
This secondary weapon is gone if she loses it; Shattered Shadow is her main weapon. Without Shattered Shadow, her combat power will be reduced by at least two-thirds.
Xiao Jin broke out in a cold sweat, but when she activated the 'Gray Feather' shield, the flames didn't lose any more durability when they landed on it, indicating that only direct contact between the equipment and the flames could reduce its durability.
Running and dodging along the way, Xiao Jin managed to hold out for forty minutes. Of course, there were times when he couldn't dodge the meteorites and had to confront them head-on.
Xiao Jin's two short swords were shattered, including the newly acquired [Poison Sting], and two of his ribs were broken. His hair was also burned and curled.
But Xiao Jin did not let her guard down. There were only five minutes left, and these five minutes were of utmost importance.
Now that she has lost the protection of 'crystallization', she can only withstand the meteorite head-on.
Just then, a beam of light ripped across the sky, and a rapidly spinning meteorite crashed down on his head. A resolute glint flashed in Xiao Jin's eyes, and his supernatural abilities were instantly activated to the maximum, allowing him to teleport to another location in the blink of an eye.
The roar of the meteorite and its shattered fragments left a series of shocking trails behind her.
However, as time went by, with only one and a half minutes left before the disaster ended, a feeling of exhaustion from the depths of her soul surged up like a tide. Xiao Jin's temples felt as if they were being struck by an invisible hammer, each throb accompanied by intense pain.
Her supernatural abilities were nearly exhausted, and the remaining energy was insufficient to support Xiao Jin in teleporting again.
At this critical moment, whether the system did it on purpose or not, the sky suddenly darkened, and a huge shadow loomed over from afar.
Xiao Jin glanced up quickly, her pupils shrinking sharply. It was a meteorite, larger and more terrifying than ever before, hurtling towards her location with unstoppable force.
Upon seeing this, Xiao Jin did not hesitate at all and decisively activated 'Sand Escape'. A yellow light appeared on his body, and then he disappeared into the desert.
Almost at the same instant, the huge meteorite crashed down, leaving a large crater in the area hit by it.
At that moment, Xiao Jin, who had escaped into the desert, suddenly burst into tremendous speed and went straight into the depths of the earth. If it weren't for her actions, she would have been crushed even if she had entered the underground.
Feeling the pressure behind her gradually lessen, Xiao Jin continued downwards for a while. Seeing that the time was almost up, she began to climb upwards in another direction.
Don't wait until the countdown to 'sand escape' is over while she's still in the sand; that would be hilarious!
Just before the props' time limit expired, Xiao Jin finally emerged from underground. There were still ten seconds left before the disaster was completely deployed.
Having safely weathered the final period, and with the hazy dust before us, the entire F district returned to tranquility.
Exhausted, Xiao Jin sat on the ground, the scalding sand burning her palms.
"Hiss~" Xiao Huai quickly raised his hand.
When she saw the surroundings begin to shuffle and return to normal, Xiao Jin lifted her dirty mask with one hand, took out a can of chilled sparkling water from her storage space, opened the tab, and gulped it down.
The cool bubbles went down into Xiao Jin's throat through his dry mouth, and he felt so good that his head was about to fly off.
"Phew~"
With a long sigh of relief, Xiao Jin could finally lie down with peace of mind. She opened the panel and glanced at the number of players; there were still about five thousand left.
But then she suddenly sprang up, sat on the ground, and stared at the system announcement with annoyance.
[Ding—Next disaster area to be deployed: Zones A and F. Disaster type: Poisonous fog. Countdown: 3:58]
Why is it section F again? Did she win some big prize?!
Xiao Jin opened the map. There were two areas closest to her now. Area A to the east was inaccessible, leaving only Area B to the northeast.
Based on this distance, I can get there in less than four hours by riding a desert motorbike.
What are you waiting for? Let's go!
Doing it again would be the death of her!
Xiao Jin jumped onto the motorcycle, twisted the throttle, and sped away.
…………
Since she was trying to escape, Xiao Jin didn't pay much attention to the resource boxes around her. She would only take the ones that were really conspicuous. As a result, she only found three resource boxes in the first half of the day, besides what she had found in the morning.
Sigh~
Xiao Jin shook his head slightly as he rode on his motorcycle. It really is hard to go from luxury to frugality!
The desert motorcycle was easy to control, so Xiao Jin would sit on it and eat whenever she had a spare moment. She gripped the handlebars with her right hand, took out a rice ball with her left hand and stuffed it into her mouth, then munched on a honey-glazed chicken leg with great gusto.
If you choke, just grab a cup of milk tea. Drinking milk tea with a straw won't stop you from driving. That's the convenience of this space!
At 2:10 p.m., Xiao Jin's vision was finally clear of the endless yellow sand. These past few days, her injuries had been constantly exposed to sand, leaving her covered in sand from head to toe, including in her mouth.
Area B is a particularly striking tropical rainforest, with high humidity and a lush array of large-leaved plants.
