In her previous life, Jiang Ruan finally defeated the final invaders with her supreme martial prowess and superpowers, preparing to ascend the supreme throne and lead humanity towards a new dawn.
"Watch out!" Gu An took out a sword from his waist and threw it, deflecting the fireball and pulling Jiang Ruan away from the attack from behind.
Even if he didn't make a move, Jiang Ruan wouldn't be afraid of these things with her current skills. What puzzled her was how these people discovered them, since they had been very cautious.
Just as she was wondering, she suddenly caught a glimpse of the orange-red light flashing on Gu An's forehead. It was the sensation after using his superpower, but he had only used the sword and hadn't used his superpower. She saw it clearly.
Two seconds after the light flashed, the zombies stopped moving, as if they were being restrained by something. Their voices were whimpering and sounded somewhat resentful.
This was the first time Jiang Ruan had ever felt this kind of emotion from a zombie.
She looked at Gu An thoughtfully...
“With such a commotion, the people inside aren’t stupid. They must have known where we were already. Let’s go straight there.” Jiang Ruan gave Gu An a deep look before walking forward.
"Okay!" Gu An obediently walked forward.
But where Jiang Ruan couldn't see, he waved his hand behind his back a few times, and then the zombies stopped even whimpering and became extremely quiet.
Jiang Ruan continued walking inside, puzzled.
Before long, the two arrived at the entrance where the zombies were imprisoned. Ding Jingshan and Ding Jingyan, who had just become zombies, immediately rushed over and bared their teeth at the two of them. When they met Gu An's gaze, the two zombies simultaneously sensed something was wrong.
Although they were already zombies, because they were superhumans, they still retained some human consciousness and were not completely affected by the zombie toxins.
Aside from being unable to speak and having difficulty moving, they retain some of their thoughts and consciousness.
They even forgot who they were when they smelled blood.
"These two zombies are interesting. They look quite different from the zombies we usually see. At least they don't look so dull."
Perhaps it's due to the transformation of superhumans.
Jiang Ruan looked at the zombie that had suddenly fallen silent, and her suspicions about Gu An beside her deepened.
She suspected that this guy could actually control zombies.
In her previous life, she had encountered a zombie leader who fought for a long time without a clear winner.
Later, after saving Du Ning from his clutches in the final fight, I never saw him again.
Just as he was about to ascend the throne and join hands with Du Ning to rule the country, the zombie leader suddenly reappeared, intending to stab Du Ning to death.
I risked my life to save him.
Unexpectedly, he caused me great harm and left me severely weakened.
Thinking of this, a hint of anger flickered in Jiang Ruan's eyes. She didn't believe Gu An was that person; if he was, then why did he save her?
"Ah Ruan, what's wrong? Are you scared?" Gu An shielded Jiang Ruan behind him, somewhat worried.
"Ah, it's nothing, it's nothing, I was just spacing out! Sorry, sorry!" Jiang Ruan was startled awake by his shout and realized that she had just been immersed in the tragedy of her previous life again.
I clearly said I didn't want to, but my brain just won't listen.
Jiang Ruan pinched her thigh hard twice in a corner where no one could see her, and looked around after she was fully awake.
Only then did she notice that, besides the two zombies, there was also a man veiled in black, but he was emanating a distinct scent.
To be honest, it smells a bit bad, even worse than stinky tofu!
Jiang Ruan subconsciously pinched her nose, but before she could speak, the man beat her to it.
"You guys have some nerve, actually coming all this way. Are you here to boost my sales figures? I'd be more than happy to!"
The words were a joke, but the person was not. Look at his eyes, which could devour someone; there was only coldness in them.
It's none other than the acting king from just now!
"Heh, you want to kill us? Dream on!" Gu An's eyebrows twitched almost imperceptibly, and he sneered, a hint of disdain flashing in his eyes.
"You're young, but you're all talk! You'll find out soon enough whether I can or not!" The acting king clapped his hands, and the two Ding brothers, as if bewitched, instantly perked up and lunged at the two men again.
Seeing this, Jiang Ruan's eyes flickered slightly. Instead of drawing her sword, she hid and avoided the zombie's attack.
Gu An ran his hand over his sword from top to bottom, then a white light flashed across his face as he began to move between the two zombies.
They were quickly routed.
The white light, like a dragon wrapped in electricity, electrified every part of their bodies, but "kindly" did not kill them outright.
"go!"
Seeing that the situation was not right, the acting king quickly took out the white bead, crushed it in his hand, and blew it towards Jiang Ruan.
From his perspective, Gu An was formidable and difficult to deal with. But Jiang Ruan was different; she only knew how to hide and seemed easy to handle.
But he's really messed with Jiang Ruan.
Jiang Ruan had been observing Gu An, trying to confirm whether he was really the zombie leader, but seeing the two zombies fighting so recklessly, her doubts temporarily subsided.
Seeing that the acting king had ambushed him, he chuckled and took out a huge palm-leaf fan from his spatial storage to blow the smoke formed by the powder back into the air.
To the astonishment of the acting king, his problem was easily resolved.
"You you you...cough cough cough!" The acting king stammered incoherently, and because he opened his mouth in surprise, he swallowed some powder, and his whole body coughed uncontrollably.
"You dare to launch a sneak attack on me? You've got some nerve, resorting to such a low-level tactic."
Jiang Ruan put her things away, looking at him with amusement, wondering how someone as incompetent as him could have survived until now.
"Are you alright?" Gu An originally wanted to come and help, but he also had something he wanted to confirm. He felt that Jiang Ruan's ability to predict the future was not the only thing she had in this life; she must have other superpowers that she just didn't know about.
After Jiang Ruan easily dealt with the sneak attack, her suspicions were confirmed.
"It's alright, his skills are too poor, he can't hurt me at all." Jiang Ruan glanced at the man indifferently, then immediately turned her head away.
She looked at the zombies below. Killing them all and taking the crystals would naturally be advantageous, but that would be far too bloody.
It would be better if it could be used for one's own benefit, but since one has not yet developed an "obedience potion" that can make zombies obey, this idea is not feasible.
"You can die now!" Gu An threw the sword behind him without even looking, hitting the acting king squarely in the heart, killing him instantly.
He died very hastily.
The two Ding brothers smelled the blood and pounced on him immediately, quickly devouring him clean, leaving only a few blackened white bones.
Jiang Ruan thought she heard a hiccup sound, "Hiccup~", and when she looked closely, she saw that it was the stomachs of the two zombies growling.
