Chapter 309 Neither way can I survive.

When the three of them went to the Dawn Base to buy the ability enhancement liquid, each of them drank two vials, and their strength was forcibly raised to level five ability users.

The three of them felt that they were now incredibly strong.

Tang Xiaoyu clenched her fist. "I feel like I could smash the heads of several level-two zombies right now."

Song Fei nodded, "That's right, I'm going to fight the level two zombies to the bitter end. We'll definitely have a place in this selection."

Peng Lihui exclaimed, "Is this the power of a level 5 ability user? It's really strong! This feels amazing!"

The three of them walked down the street with great confidence and high spirits, looking like they were not to be trifled with.

Three level-five ability users are just average within the Dawn Base, but outside, they are definitely not people that anyone can mess with.

When they arrived at the outskirts of the city and saw the scene before them, the three of them froze, their domineering aura instantly shattered.

Several people even felt their scalps tingle and their bodies grow cold; that feeling of being dominated by the eerie returned.

Peng Lihui pointed ahead, trembling, "This, this looks like the man who was carried away by the zombies."

Tang Xiaoyu nodded stiffly, "It seems to be true. That man has a big head and a thick neck, and he looks different from others. You can tell from these features."

The three of them felt as if they had fallen into an ice cave, their faces filled with terror.

The main reason was that the scene that appeared in front of them was so tragic, so appalling.

Before them was a pedestrian overpass at a crossroads, leading to four intersections and eight exits, perched above the intersections like an eight-legged tortoise.

In the middle of the road, an iron chain was hanging down from the overpass, with a bloodied person suspended in mid-air.

This could no longer be considered human; it resembled a bloody maggot, writhing in mid-air.

It's obviously not completely dead yet.

The man's limbs had been cut off, and his ears were gone, leaving only a bald human stump.

The iron chains bound his writhing body, leaving a long indentation.

Tang Xiaoyu lay on the ground, feeling nauseous. "That...that person wasn't stained with blood, his skin was peeled off, and the flesh bound by the iron chains was still twitching."

Song Fei rubbed his eyes, also finding it hard to look directly at the scene. "For the first time, I feel that it's not necessarily a good thing that human life is too tenacious. They're still alive, how much suffering they must be going through. It truly embodies the phrase 'utterly tragic'."

They've been through so much, but they've never seen anything like this before. It looks absolutely terrible.

Peng Lihui's gaze followed the dripping blood to the ground, where he saw a little girl sitting on the roof of a car that was jostling and crashing below.

She was wearing a khaki cotton-linen dress, sitting cross-legged on the roof of the car, leaving Peng Lihui with only her back to him.

However, judging from the angle of her head being raised, with her ponytail hanging down her back, the little girl was probably staring up at the tragic figure in mid-air.

It's that strange little girl again. Did she do it?

What kind of deep-seated hatred or resentment could torment a person to this extent?

Peng Lihui whispered to Tang Xiaoyu and Song Fei, "Let's go, let's go quickly."

He was afraid that if the little girl got upset, they would kill her again.

Peng Lihui realized that this little girl was not a normal person and could not be viewed with the mindset of a normal person.

One minute she's waving and greeting you, the next she might kill you; it's best for them to stay away.

The three of them are incredibly lucky; they always seem to run into her.

"Hello, sister, it's nice to see you again. Where are you rushing off to?"

Qin Nianshu's voice rang out, and the three people who had just run two steps suddenly froze in place.

Tang Xiaoyu turned around stiffly and saw Qin Nianshu still sitting on the roof of the car, only her head was turned to look at them.

Her small face had grayish-white eyes with a faint, unreadable expression.

But in Tang Xiaoyu's eyes, the little girl seemed a bit too creepy.

She stiffly raised her hand to greet them, "Hello, it's great to see you again. We're really destined to meet. We're on our way to hunt level 2 zombies, so we won't bother you any longer."

As she turned to leave, she heard Qin Nianshu's voice ring out again, "Oh, hunting level two zombies, huh? To participate in the selection process? Do you need any help? I can help you."

The three of them shuddered again at her words.

Tang Xiaoyu quickly waved her hand, "No need, really no need. We are already very grateful to you for giving us so many crystal cores before. How could we ask you for help again?"

The group she said she would help send to the Dawn Base has long since vanished without a trace, except for one person who is still crawling on the overpass.

The three of them dared not let the little girl help them; what if they were the ones getting stuck on the overpass next time?

Peng Lihui added, "The selection process is fair to all people with superpowers. We want to get into Dawn Base based on our own abilities and follow the rules so that we can feel at ease."

Peng Lihui believed that his statement was very righteous, very upright, and made him a very good student.

Unexpectedly, Qin Nianshu suddenly stood up from the roof of the car, her eyes icy cold. "What do you mean? You don't want my help? You don't want to play with me? You don't like me? People who don't like me are bad people, and bad people deserve to die."

Peng Lihui: !!!

Tang Xiaoyu: !!!

Song Fei: !!!

The three of them were so frightened that their eyes almost popped out of their sockets.

What's going on? Agreeing to cheat will get you hung on a pedestrian bridge.

They disagree with cheating and insist on participating in the selection process based on merit, but are they still going to die?

Either way, they can't survive.

Why is this little girl so easily startled, so fickle, so unpredictable? One minute she wants to kill him, the next she doesn't. Is she trying to toughen up the three of them mentally?

Song Fei quickly waved his hand, "No, no, you gave us crystal cores. In our hearts, you are the best kid. We just saw that you had been busy for so long and must be quite tired. We didn't want to trouble you. It's not that we didn't want to play with you. We really like you. You are super amazing."

Song Fei was almost in tears.

Anyone with a modicum of sense who can control zombies would be ecstatic if offered to help them pass the selection process.

But this little girl looks obviously abnormal.

Who knows when this little girl might suddenly have a brain fart and control the zombies to bite them to death.

How could they dare to be with such a ticking time bomb?

Qin Nianshu tilted her head. "Really? If I give you crystal cores, you'll like me?"

Having avenged her great grudge and released the hatred in her heart, she suddenly felt empty.

It seems like I've lost my future goals and can't see the direction.

She happened to see these people and became interested.

She wanted to see if Lulu was telling the truth, whether there were good people in the world, and whether these people were really good or not.

Keep the good ones, kill the bad ones.

Qin Nianshu has only one standard for judging whether a person is good or bad: whether that person treats her well or not.

Being good to her makes you a good person.

Being unkind to her makes you a bad person.

It's that simple and straightforward.
