Chapter 62: Lead Away



◎With a whisper, the knife came down◎

"Even acting like a spoiled child won't work." Long Qingyu had a blank expression on his face and was stern and impartial.

Ling Xi glanced over there and saw the densely packed zombies, like ants carrying candy, and her scalp suddenly went numb.

Pulling Rong Xiao back to her seat, Ling Xi, leveraging her influence in her heart, tried to act like a good older sister. "Xiao Xiao, it's very dangerous over there. You can't go. Be obedient, understand?"

As soon as she finished speaking, she seemed to see Rong Xiao turn into a flower.

The head is a flower bud.

When she lowered her head, Rong Xiao looked like a flower hit by frost, pitiful, and her beautiful eyes had lost their luster.

In this apocalyptic world, who has ever seen someone who gets excited when seeing zombies and gets depressed when not allowed to get close to them?

Rong Xiao is that weirdo.

"Can you listen to me for a moment?" Shangguan Yu put the eye mask he had removed into his bag and carefully observed the situation outside. "Although there are a large number of zombies, their speed is still within our expectations. With Rong Xiao's abilities, he can definitely use this opportunity to upgrade his stats."

"No, I mean... is that superpower upgrade real?" Tian Yichuang glanced at the situation outside and felt a chill on his back.

He was afraid that he would be killing alone. If the team lost more people, wouldn't that be a huge loss?!

"Since you're unsure, let Rong Xiao try again. If it really is upgraded as she said, she should be able to control larger objects."

Shangguan Huai was actually very interested in Rong Xiao's upgrade: "However, Xiao Xiao is so powerful, the zombies shouldn't be able to catch her."

Hearing someone supporting him, Rong Xiao quickly echoed, "You can't catch it, you can't catch it."

"It's not impossible to let her try. We have seen all kinds of scenes." Shangguan Yu calmly put his hands on his head, as if discussing the movie he was about to watch.

"Try it, try it." Rong Xiao added coquettishly.

Although Long Qingyu usually respects everyone's opinions, if he cannot be convinced of some things, he has his own principles to stick to.

He will not compromise easily on risky matters.

"Ah... Uncle Wen Zhen, be careful! They're going to drive the car," a girl lying on the high wall cried out in tears, "Hold on, it will come soon, soon."

"Don't... don't open the door!" Uncle Wen Zhen, who was hanging above the billboard, was trembling all over. His fingers, which had been tightly gripping the iron bars, slowly loosened. "If you open the door, all the zombies will go in. Don't open it."

"But……"

"Knock!" Zhu Shuo next door was also in a bad situation and cursed in panic.

There were more and more zombies piling up below, crowded together like a human wall, getting closer and closer to him.

The bloody hands with bared fangs and claws were shaking under his feet. It was likely that they would be able to tear the man down in less than half an hour.

"Let Rong Xiao go. She's the main force of our team. The stronger she is, the better it is for us." Shangguan Yu suddenly stood up, stuffed his bag to Shangguan Huai beside him, and took off his coat. "While enjoying the benefits, shouldn't we also give something in return?"

Long Qingyu looked at the rearview mirror and understood what Shangguan Yu meant.

Let Rong Xiao kill zombies to level up, and Shangguan Yu will assist.

If you want to upgrade and become stronger, you will inevitably encounter risks.

If you don't dare to take risks to improve your strength, when you encounter other more serious risks, your ability to deal with zombies will be affected.

"Then you all should be careful," Long Qingyu compromised after thinking it over. "Don't act recklessly. Your superiors will be in charge of supervision. If anything unusual happens, retreat immediately. Absolutely no risks."

"Brother Long, don't worry about this. I never take risks." Shangguan Yu glanced at the back of Rong Xiao's head and chuckled.

This is true. Shangguan Yu will never take the lead because there are too many unknowns; he will also never be the last one to go, as it will make him easy to be ambushed.

He would never try anything that might be dangerous and would stay as far away from it as possible.

Even if Long Qingyu didn't believe what he said, he absolutely believed in his character. Caution was Shangguan Yu's absolute label.

After getting the captain's permission, Rong Xiao and Shangguan Yu got out of the car quietly.

The zombies nearby were all focused on the wall and the two people hanging in the air, as if they were treating them as air.

Rong Xiao glanced at Uncle Wen Zhen hanging on the billboard and nudged Shangguan Yu with his elbow: "Shangguan, why don't you go save the people first?"

"Why do you want to save him?" Shangguan Yu looked down at him mercilessly with his height advantage.

"Because he must be desperate now and wants help. If I were hanging there, I would also hope someone could help me."

"I don't know him well."

"If you save it, it will be cooked!"

Rong Xiao blinked her eyes wide open. With a smile on her face, she pointed to that area and said, "I'll go lure the zombies away. You can fly, so it should be no problem to carry the people away from above. Zombies can't jump, so they can't catch you."

"...So annoying." Taking a deep breath, Shangguan Yu looked at the zombies and felt a headache.

He didn't need to expend much effort, after all, he could fly, and the zombies below couldn't reach him.

But Rong Xiao can't fly.

Still need to lure away the zombies?

I'm afraid I don't know how to write the word death!

"Let's go, let's go," Rong Xiao pushed him from behind, jumping up and down, "You take the person away later, and I'll do it later, so as not to stain your clothes with blood."

"Then you should do your best. I'm not good at multitasking."

"I know."

The flaming fire bottles thrown out were gradually extinguished, just like the fading hopes of the two people on the wall and trapped.

A cold light bloomed in the cold night, and a huge black shadow rose into the air, like a floating paraglider.

The man on the wall took a closer look and his face suddenly changed drastically. He immediately picked up two more bottles and prepared to light them.

Shangguan Yu flew over Uncle Wen Zhen with an expressionless face and reached out to hold the trembling wrists.

"What do you want to do!!" A roar came from the other side of the wall, "Stop!!!"

You're crazy! Shangguan Yu rolled his eyes at that person and without saying a word, he picked up Uncle Wen Zhen and threw him over the wall: "Take it, who cares?"

One of the men immediately lit a match and prepared to light the cloth soaked in wine at the mouth of the bottle.

Uncle Wen Zhen raised his trembling hands to stop him: "Don't."

"But……"

Shangguan Yu was angered by the people on the wall. He glanced at Zhu Shuo, who was still holding on but was having a hard time. He went to help Rong Xiao disperse the zombies with a cold face and was no longer in the mood to save anyone.

The big bird reflected by the flames attracted more attention. Shangguan Yu flew back and forth in the air several times and successfully led the other zombies around Rong Xiao to another area.

The girl was particularly obedient to the "promise." After Shangguan Yu had rescued the people and flown to a place where he wouldn't be splashed with blood, she suddenly pulled out a shiny new weapon from her back: "Hehe, hehehe..."

A cold light flashed, and the long handle of the knife was extremely inconsistent with the girl's smiling face.

"Is that girl also a person with super powers?" The person on the wall looked at Uncle Wen Zhen beside him.

Shangguan Yu, who was tired of flying in the air, folded his wings and squatted on the wall, scaring the group of people so much that they quickly hid to the other side.

"Look carefully, she doesn't like to use her superpowers." After saying that, Shangguan Yu gave the group of people a sarcastic smile.

"No need for superpowers?" The people on the wall were curious about Shangguan Yu's words and cautiously looked out.

The girl in the open space below clenched her hands and jumped on the spot to stretch her muscles. The faster zombies had noticed her and were running towards her.

"One!" Rong Xiao said softly as if he was counting some treasures, and then raised his hand and slashed with the knife.

The first zombie that ran to her suddenly fell to the ground. The group of people only felt something flash by and couldn't even see how the knife hit them.

Everyone on the wall gasped.

This is useless?! Who would believe it?!

Everyone on the city wall was dumbfounded. They had been on guard against Shangguan Yu who was squatting beside them, but now all their attention was on Rong Xiao.

The zombies around seemed to be attracted by the girl's movements, and no matter how fast or slow they were, they all ran towards her.

Shangguan Yu seemed to be waiting for support, but in fact he was observing.

Rong Xiao has too many secrets. Although she said she had amnesia, for him, he would not believe what others said unless he saw it with his own eyes and confirmed the facts.

But everyone likes Rong Xiao very much, and now she is also a member of the team, he will not say anything that will affect their relationship.

After observing her for so long, his attitude towards Rong Xiao has changed from initial wariness to curiosity. Now it is more like observing a novel machine, wanting to know how far she can go.

We are all human, but Rong Xiao's ability is so strong that he is not like a human, which makes Shangguan Yu very conflicted about some things.

Because there are so many unknowns about her, curiosity can't help but be on guard, but at the critical moment, you can't help but believe without hesitation that she can do anything.

"twelve!"

The girl's voice in the open space was particularly pleasant among the dry cries of the zombies.

"Fifteen," Rong Xiao waved his bloody hands and smiled happily, "I will definitely be able to level up!"

When others encountered zombies, they would be terrified and cry, but Rong Xiao did the opposite. He was like picking up money below instead of being surrounded by zombies, which shocked the people on the wall.

The only ones who remained calm were Zhu Shuo and Uncle Wen Zhen. They had seen Rong Xiao's actions before and were no longer surprised.

"Yeah, you are so awesome." Shangguan Yu read with an expressionless face.

The zombies below were densely packed, some were fast and some were slow, and their number was astonishingly large.

Not to mention being surrounded, it was a one-on-many situation, and just watching from the city wall was shocking.

Rong Xiao's actions were not aimless and random. Shangguan Yu had been observing him. He found that Rong Xiao used his speed and flexibility to select the fastest zombies in the group and deal with them first.

The progressive operations were so clear that it seemed as if they had undergone detailed data analysis, and each step was just right without any mistakes.

After watching on the wall for too long, even Shangguan Yu's smart brain would be a little stuck due to the excessive load. He began to feel tired and could not accurately judge which side's danger should be dealt with first. It seemed that the speed on both sides was the same.

Just like playing a game, Shangguan Yu relied on the "actual operations" in his imagination to guess Rong Xiao's every move and plan.

Finally, I couldn't keep up with the pace at all.
