The End of the World: Oh No! The Zombie Slipped into the Crowd

The apocalypse arrived, and Lin Xi unexpectedly turned into a conscious zombie.

From then on, she embarked on a journey to find her family alongside superpowered companions.

When encoun...

Chapter 46 Hospital Outpatient Department

"Collect ten low-level zombie crystal cores?"

Upon hearing this voice, Lin Xi couldn't help but turn her head to look.

The one who spoke was actually the man who had challenged her to a sparring match on the first day.

Is their task really that simple?

Chen Jin suddenly snatched the mission card, and by the time they reacted, he was already standing opposite the group leader.

"Team leader, I think this task is very unreasonable."

When the group leader saw that the person who came was Chen Jin, he turned his head and glanced at the group leader of group five.

Do you have a question?

"Why does our mission say we need to collect five mid-tier zombie cores, while other people's missions only require collecting ten low-tier zombie cores?"

His actions stunned everyone.

Yang Qiwen shook her head, "I didn't realize Teacher Chen was so brave."

The group leader took the task card from his hand, checked it carefully, and then said, "This task was specifically given to you by your group leader."

"He said that you and Jiang Chuan have rather special abilities, and you need a more advanced mission, otherwise this mission is too easy for you."

"If something is too simple to be effective, then this mission is meaningless for you."

The group leader, with a serious expression, coldly handed the task card back.

Chen Jin refused to accept the mission card, his face showing anger. "But we have other members in our group. Aren't you just dragging them into this adventure with us?"

"This is also one of your tasks." The group leader, not wanting to talk to him anymore, turned to the others and said, "This mission lasts for one week. Meet at 6 a.m. tomorrow, and we will send you all out of the safe zone. We will settle accounts at the meeting time next Monday."

"If everyone understands their tasks and there are no other questions, I'll be leaving now."

"Teacher Chen, come back." Yang Qiwen waved to him.

Chen Jin had no choice but to accept it.

"No problem." Jiang Chuan glanced at him indifferently. "As long as you don't hold us back, I can protect everyone."

After saying that, the four of them left cleanly and efficiently.

Chen Jin: ...

Do you really dislike him that much? His own abilities aren't weak, are they?

Lin Xi patted his shoulder, "He's definitely better than you, just bear with it."

Chen Jin: ...

After returning home tonight, everyone went to bed early to recharge for the coming week.

This time, the six of them were assigned a vehicle again. After all, low-level and mid-level zombies are not as easy to search as ordinary zombies. With a vehicle, their range of movement within a week was greatly expanded.

Fortunately, all four of them knew how to drive, and considering that Lin Xi was a novice driver who hadn't yet taken her driving test, none of them dared to let her drive.

Chen Jin, who was standing next to him, asked, "You don't have a driver's license?"

"I just finished the college entrance exam, where would I find the time to take it again?" Lin Xi shrugged, looking indifferent.

Chen Jin's lips twitched. He thought to himself that he had been lucky all along, managing to avoid a car accident.

As the atmosphere grew quieter, the people in the car couldn't help but start to doze off.

In the silence, Uncle Lin suddenly muttered to himself, "I wonder when we'll find the first mid-level zombie."

“If we just foolishly wait for them to show up on their own, we might not catch a single one even in a week.” Jiang Chuan looked at the road ahead. “So what we need to do is take the initiative.”

Lin Xi was very curious. Even with her clever and quick-witted mind, she hadn't come up with any good ideas. What good ideas could Jiang Chuan possibly have?

Do you have any ideas?

"You'll find out when the time comes," Xu Youjia said calmly, sitting upright with her eyes closed, as if she were resting.

Soon after, the car arrived at a large hospital in the city.

Jiang Chuan got out of the car and opened the trunk, where he pulled out a large speaker with his right hand.

“Zombies have very sensitive hearing; you can attract them with sound,” Jiang Chuan explained.

Lin Xi: This move looks familiar!

She did it!

The facts prove it's completely useless.

She opened her mouth to give a heads-up, but Jiang Chuan stood coldly behind her and said, "Move aside, you're blocking my way."

That's so rude.

With her words of dissuasion stuck in her throat, Lin Xi silently took two steps back and smiled faintly: Let him do it himself.

As long as he's happy.

She wanted to see what kind of monsters and demons his little speaker could attract.

Uncle Lin and Xu Youjia immediately followed. Yang Qiwen strolled over slowly, glancing at Lin Xi as she passed by. "Come on, if you stay here, you'll attract a large number of zombies and become their meal."

Chen Jin, standing to the side, paled. "Celine, let's go in too."

Jiang Chuan placed the speaker in the lobby on the first floor of the outpatient department, a fairly spacious area.

When the time comes to take action, there's no need to hold back.

After carefully observing the registration area, Uncle Lin went around to the back and took out a wire to unlock the door.

This move left Lin Xi and Chen Jin, who had never seen anything like it, completely dumbfounded.

This skill is great! After that, when I go on a mission, I can just find a house, unlock it, and go inside. I'll have a place to rest wherever I go.

Uncle Lin silently waved to them, signaling them to go inside.

Jiang Chuan put down his things and quickly caught up with them. After entering, he looked around to make sure there was no danger before taking out a... remote control from his pocket.

What brand of speaker is this?

It's so much more advanced than her Bluetooth speaker!

Jiang Chuan ignored her burning gaze and pressed the switch.

Lin Xi rolled her eyes inwardly. She had already tried it, okay?

Back then, she spent several days camping in the wilderness with her beloved Bluetooth speaker, but in the end, she didn't even manage to catch a low-level zombie!

It's completely useless.

What a waste of time!

If this can attract mid-level zombies, she'll go and devour this speaker in a minute!

Thinking this, Lin Xi lowered her voice and whispered to Chen Jin, "If this can attract a mid-level zombie, I'll give you a demonstration of swallowing a speaker upside down!"

"Huh? Isn't that unnecessary?"

Chen Jin stared wide-eyed, utterly bewildered by her confident gaze.

Suddenly, a strange noise came from the speakers, similar to the sound of an early version of color television signal suddenly being interrupted.

However, the sound should be louder.

Intermittent.

Ten minutes passed, and some ordinary zombies gradually followed the sound and arrived at the location.

When Lin Xi looked at Chen Jin, her eyebrows and eyes raised slightly in a smug manner.

I told you so.

Another half hour passed.

Lin Xi and Chen Jin's eyelids were already starting to droop.

Jiang Chuan glanced at the two of them briefly, then quickly looked away, focusing his attention on the commotion outside.

There were just too many zombies. The speaker had been overturned and was lying on the ground, but it still stubbornly emitted a sharp and obscure song.

"They're here."
