◎ Have you ever enjoyed the peace of mind that comes with Rong Xiao’s huge backing?◎
Fan Yiye scratched his head and smiled sheepishly: "I rarely chat with people, so I didn't even know about this."
"We have one hour left before departure. We need to replenish our energy and eat something as soon as possible." Long Qingyu glanced at the watch on his wrist and put forward his idea.
Once they leave the safe zone, even if they bring enough supplies, they probably won't have time to eat if they encounter an emergency.
In particular, they did not have any space ability users accompanying them this time, so the supplies they could bring were limited.
Everyone thought that Long Qingyu's proposal was sound, and a large group of people swarmed towards the cafeteria, rushing in aggressively as if they were going to steal something.
The people with special abilities who had dispersed earlier were queuing up for food in the cafeteria. When they saw them coming, many of them were silent for a while, and immediately made way for three or two windows to signal them to go first.
Yan Jue and Rong Xiao thanked them one by one, and they didn't have time to be polite with them. They ordered their food with their fingers, especially the meat and staple food, and turned around to find an empty seat.
Many people who had only eaten half of their meal, when they saw them looking for a seat, quickly stood up, picked up their plates, helped wipe them clean, and frantically gestured for them to sit over.
Rong Xiao knew that time was urgent and he didn't have time to be polite with them, so he thanked them and sat down to eat.
The others also got their meals and sat together, wolfing them down. In the corridor next to them stood a group of people eating with their plates in hand.
After filling their stomachs, half an hour had passed. Just as Rong Xiao and the others were about to clear the plates, more than ten people rushed over and rushed to help them clean up.
Rong Xiao raised his hands and was pushed out of the cafeteria by the team members behind him.
Even though she didn't have time to look back, she could feel countless eyes staring at her from behind.
There are strong blessings in those eyes.
There was not much time left, only half an hour, and everyone had nowhere to go, so they just went straight to the gate and waited.
As soon as Rong Xiao and the others arrived, they saw Lei Chao standing there looking for someone.
He was wearing training clothes as usual, with a training officer badge on his chest that was unique to his identity.
But Lei Chao was different today than usual. He was like an anxious spinning top, and his hands and feet could never be placed properly.
"Remember to be careful," Lei Chao said, his gaze evenly scanning everyone's eyes. "No matter how important the mission is, it's not as important as your lives. No matter what, you must return alive."
"Then..." Rong Xiao smiled wickedly, "Can we have a big meal together when we get back?"
"Eat!" Lei Chao shouted, patting his chest loudly. "It's my treat. Eat whatever you want. Eat until you're full!"
"Okay, okay." Rong Xiao suddenly became excited and even more eager to try.
In contrast, Fan Yiye and Liu Lanxin looked very serious. They had already made plans for the worst and were ready to die. Not to mention laughing, their brows were never relaxed.
"Oh." Despite Rong Xiao's assurance, Lei Chao still couldn't let go.
Almost all the members of his team had gone, leaving only four people.
Fortunately, the four students with the worst physical fitness did not go, otherwise he would not be able to sleep tonight.
Yan Jue couldn't help but smile when he saw Lei Chao's worried look. "Trainer Lei, don't worry. You promised Xiaoxiao that you would treat her to delicious food. She will definitely come back safely because of this."
Shangguan Yu, who understood the situation, also added: "She is not just talking, she will really go all out for this."
Lei Chao seemed relieved and finally calmed down. He patted Rong Xiao on the shoulder and said, "Be careful, and don't try to show off! Be careful about everything, and then..."
At the end, he couldn't help laughing.
It was always the same two words, and Rong Xiao's ears were probably going to get calluses from hearing them.
Rong Xiao didn't laugh. She nodded seriously, her tone the same as usual during training: "Brother Lei, don't worry, I've remembered every word and every thing you've told me before. I will definitely not let you down!"
"It doesn't matter if I lose face or not," Lei Chao patted his chest with his muscular arms, "Just make sure you come back safely, or I'll really have a heart attack."
"Don't worry, you don't have that chance."
Lei Chao couldn't hold it in any longer and burst out laughing.
Before they knew it, more and more people gathered at the gate, looking at the dozen or so people gathered together from afar.
Not long after, someone sent them uniform clothes, shoes, weapons and a modified high-tech truck.
Although he was reluctant to leave, Lei Chao did not want to affect them, so he retreated to a distance and blended into the silent crowd.
There is an inspection room at the gate, which was temporarily used for them to change clothes.
These clothes are made of special materials, with good elasticity and not easy to break. They can withstand being bitten by ordinary zombies for a while and are safer than ordinary clothes.
After changing into the uniform, Rong Xiao touched and looked at it curiously. Suddenly, a strange feeling arose in her heart, making her blood boil.
We are all together again.
Brother Long is back, and Yan Jue is also here. The two teams that had been meeting and separating frequently are now reunited.
Everyone’s goal is the same—
Find the three missing teams and bring Ling Xi back to the safe zone safely.
"It's time to go," the person in charge of the previous meeting came out in person to see them off at the gate, "Everyone please be careful."
The person in charge looked around at everyone and suddenly stopped at Long Qingyu.
"I'll leave the team's primary responsibility to you," the person in charge said solemnly, after giving Long Qingyu the heavy responsibility. He then looked at Rong Xiao standing beside him, "You'll be the second decision-maker. I believe you can do it, right?"
Long Qingyu made his promise in a clear voice, while Rong Xiao beside him tilted his head and looked behind him.
After being shocked by the handsome modified car, she turned around and nodded seriously: "Don't worry, we will definitely return safely, and even the big car will be brought back unscathed."
The person in charge couldn't hold it in and burst out laughing.
"Okay, let's go."
Everyone got into the car and found that a lot of weapons were already prepared in the car.
Two sniper rifles, five pistols, and about a hundred bullets.
Various knives, thorns, sticks...
Very well prepared.
There were also a few small bags in the car, containing food and water, but the quantity was limited and could only last them two days at most.
The intention is clear.
If you can't find those three teams, retreat in time.
Long Qingyu had no problem driving a high-riding truck and sat directly in the cab.
The person in charge looked at the gradually falling sunlight and suddenly thought of the rows of advantages and skills he had seen when he checked Long Qingyu's information before.
He knows a lot of things that people with special abilities don't. If he were to compete fairly in a world without special abilities, Long Qingyu would definitely be a leader in terms of abilities.
But until now he has not been able to awaken his superpowers.
However, in this case, the person in charge believes that his lack of superpowers is not necessarily a bad thing.
"Wait--" As the car started slowly, a figure suddenly ran after the car.
Qin Zhe, who was originally being sent back to rest, stopped the car and looked at the person in charge beside him for instructions: "I'll go too. I'll go with them."
As the only person who escaped from the map, no one knew the actual terrain and situation there better than him.
The person in charge did not refuse and nodded. Someone also sent Qin Zhe a set of exactly the same clothes.
He twisted it in his hand, took off his shirt and started changing on the spot.
Everyone around was surprised.
They thought that Qin Zhe, who had finally escaped, would never go there again, even if he felt guilty, but the danger there was unknown and terrifying.
There is a possibility that the supernatural power will be ineffective.
Once the superpowers lose their effectiveness, most people's ability to deal with danger will also be greatly reduced.
Qin Zhe changed his shirt, twisted his pants, and looked determined: "The purpose of my return is to report the situation, hoping to rescue everyone, rather than hiding in the base alone to escape.
"Brother, that's great. You have courage." Tian Yichuang lay on the passenger seat and gave him a thumbs up.
Qin Zhe smiled at him, turned over and jumped onto the modified high-riding truck, and closed the modified entrance and exit of the cargo transportation area at the back.
The car started slowly, and Long Qingyu turned the car and drove towards the gate.
The mechanical door rose, and there were many zombies wandering outside the exit. When they heard the noise, they wanted to go into the base.
The people on guard in the high place took aim downwards, shooting each zombie one by one, and quickly cleared the danger outside.
Rong Xiao sat in the back and turned her head to look at the gate. When the mechanical door slowly fell, she saw through the gap that Lei Chao's figure was slowly being isolated.
The sadness of separation suddenly surged up, all reflected on that not-so-happy face.
Yan Jue said nothing and gently grabbed her hand: "We will come back."
"Yell at him." Rong Xiao suddenly regained his composure.
It’s not like he’ll never come back, so why should she be sad?
Perhaps it was because she had stayed in the safe zone for too long that she developed feelings for everything here. Just the act of "leaving" would evoke reluctance in her heart.
Rong Xiao really didn't like this feeling.
I didn’t have so many emotions before, so naturally I didn’t think there was anything wrong with separation.
Rong Xiao now understands everything and has tried everything, but she is still not able to handle those slightly unfamiliar emotions and moods very well.
But whenever she felt lost, as long as Yan Jue was by her side, he seemed to be able to see through what she was thinking and always rescued her from the uncomfortable mood in time.
"There must be something wrong with this area," Qin Zhe said, holding the information in his bag and pointing at the red circle. "After I left that area, my supernatural powers can be used normally. Could there be something hidden there..."
After saying this, Rong Xiao discovered that the others were secretly making faces.
Except for Liu Lanxin and Fan Yiye, everyone else seemed to have thought of the same thing.
Rong Xiao suddenly thought of something.
She had encountered the situation of her superpowers disappearing twice: once when she and Yan Jue encountered mutant rats, and another time when she found a potion that made superpowers disappear in a base.
If he was injected with a drug that would make his super powers disappear, Qin Zhe would definitely know that his super powers would not be restored within 24 hours.
According to his description, Qin Zhe was able to use his supernatural powers normally after leaving the nearby area.
Rong Xiao suspected that the situation this time might be somewhat similar to that of the "mutant rats".
In that special area, there must be some unknown force that can make supernatural powers disappear.
"Don't rely too much on your superpowers. When you get close to that area, be prepared to rely on weapons to win," Shangguan Yu said subconsciously. Noticing everyone was looking at him, he quickly added, "I'm just reminding you. Don't count on me to kill zombies or anything like that."
"I know, I know," Shangguan Huai added with a smile, "Anything that requires thinking will definitely be left to you. Oh, and I need to choose a weapon that suits me."
A metal fender is welded to the back of the tall truck, and there are sturdy clips at the rear end to lock the door.
There are several windows on both sides, all of which are bulletproof glass. There are also several small holes next to them that can be opened and closed. They are used for aiming in special situations. The switches of the small holes can be locked at other times.
On the ground lay two heavy metal boxes and a wooden box, filled with weapons.
Rong Xiao coveted a pair of arm-length swords, which had handsome shapes and pure black handles.
Shangguan Huai was choosing and seemed to have taken a fancy to the big knife. He wanted to pick it up and try it out, but a hand took the knife away before him.
"I'll take it first, is that okay?" Yan Jue said with a smile. His tone didn't sound like he was asking, but clearly implying that he wanted it.
Shangguan Huai, who had a good temper, didn't take it to heart and immediately looked at other weapons: "It's okay, it seems to be the same for me."
As he spoke, Shangguan Huai picked up a black-bladed dagger and gestured twice in the air.
Everyone else sat calmly, not in a hurry to choose their weapons.
Yan Jue took the big knife in his hand and examined it, then glanced at Rong Xiao who was staring at him eagerly.
She knew that if she asked, everyone would give her the weapons of their choice, so Rong Xiao didn't have the nerve to make any demands.
In order to avoid being discovered, Rong Xiao didn't even stare at the big knife for more than three seconds. He just glanced at it occasionally, feeling restless in his heart.
"Xiaoxiao, I think this is very suitable for you." Yan Jue handed the big knife to her, "Do you want to try it?"
"Do I...do I need it?" Rong Xiao straightened his back and poked it with his finger, not wanting to take it. "You don't need it?"
“I don’t think it’s right for me.”
"Okay, I like this." When Rong Xiao heard that he didn't like it, he happily took the big knife, held it in his hand and swung it around vigorously.
Su Ming saw Yan Jue give the big knife to Rong Xiao, squeezed over from behind, squatted down and started to choose a weapon.
Among a pile of small weapons, he actually saw a chainsaw at a glance.
"This is mine, don't grab it!!" Su Ming spread his arms to block it, and quickly grabbed the chainsaw in front of him. He examined and touched it lovingly as if he had obtained a beautiful decoration.
This electric saw has a special strap and is started by a pull rope. The area below the blade close to the body has special protection. It must have been specially modified by someone.
I heard from them that there are specialized jobs in the safe zone for modifying weapons and vehicles, but they recruit very few people and only those with relevant skills will be hired. Not everyone can do it.
Shangguan Yu didn't rush to grab it. He squatted beside and watched for a while, then suddenly said, "They must have specifically learned about our habits and situation. Even the weapons they chose were the ones we brought with us when we came to the safe zone."
"Then there's no need to fight? Everyone will definitely pick the ones they are used to." With that, the weapons distribution was successfully completed in a quiet and orderly manner.
As expected, Shangguan Huai found a short-handled sickle among a pile of weapons. The blade was pitch black, and the handle was engraved with a Chinese line: Invincible.
At that moment, Shangguan Huai fell in love at first sight!
He used to use a sickle, but because he was afraid of death, he lengthened the handle himself to make it look like the sickle of the god of death. However, most of the time he rarely used it to chop zombies, but basically just swept them away.
Shangguan Yu was similar. He also used the T-shaped ice axe modified by Shangguan Huai. The safety zone prepared a similar style for him, but the handle was not specially lengthened.
As if guessing why he used the extended ice pick, the safe zone does not encourage teammates to just push away the zombies and leave them alive when encountering danger.
It is also advocated that they cut the roots, fight back bravely, and not leave anything that may threaten their existence.
In particular, those who can go out to carry out tasks are not weak people.
We drove for about 4 hours and arrived near the red circle on the map at noon when the sun was at its hottest.
Before entering the designated area, Long Qingyu found a place to park the car, asked everyone to replenish water and food, and then check their weapons.
Long Qingyu and Fan Yiye each had a sniper rifle, as well as a pistol.
Of the remaining three guns, one was given to Liu Lanxin, and the other two were given to Yan Jue and Wei Feng.
Everyone divided the bullets evenly, made sure their weapons and belongings were properly carried, and prepared to continue moving forward.
Just now on the road, Long Qingyu taught Tian Yichuang how to drive a high-riding truck, while he stayed behind to exchange ideas and arrangements with others.
"We can't act alone, but we can't rule out the possibility of splitting up. There are 13 of us in total, so we can only be divided into three groups at most," Long Qingyu made the arrangements expertly. "Even if one person gets into trouble, there's always someone to look after them. Qin Zhe will be assigned to the strongest group, responsible for investigating the situation."
After that, everyone looked at each other, as if they were all choosing the members of the three-person team in their minds.
"Strength must be evenly distributed, not too skewed," Long Qingyu said, then tentatively asked, "Should I arrange it, or can everyone divide themselves into groups and make adjustments later?"
"You form the groups." Yan Jue and Fan Yiye said at the same time, and no one else had any objection.
During the meal break just now, Long Qingyu learned about everyone's latest situation, especially Fan Yiye and Liu Lanxin.
I have a rough idea of everyone's strength.
"Dahuai, Laotian, and I are in the same group."
"Liu Lanxin, Lao Wei, and Su Ming are a group."
"Yan Jue, Bei Ran, and Nie Fuxi are in one group."
"Rong Xiao, Shangguan, and Fan Yiye are in one group, and Qin Zhe is in Rong Xiao's group."
Rong Xiao had no objection, nodded, and quickly confirmed the members of his team.
She had already known that she and Yan Jue would be separated into two groups. Long Qingyu had said that in order to balance the strength of the team, Yan Jue was destined to be in a separate group.
"Be careful." Yan Jue didn't distrust Rong Xiao, but the words of advice seemed to burst out as if they couldn't be held back. "If you encounter a situation you don't know what to do, you can discuss it with Shangguan."
Yan Jue understood Long Qingyu's arrangement very well, and he also knew that this arrangement was the most balanced and best.
Each group has a person who can use a gun, a person with strong superpowers and strong offensive power, and a person who is relatively weak without superpowers.
It can be said that Long Qingyu has balanced the strength of these three groups to the extreme.
"You have to be careful too." Rong Xiao had nothing to worry about. Perhaps because she had absolute trust in Yan Jue's strength, she reached out and grabbed his fingers, then quickly let go.
Shangguan Yu, who was standing not far away, was like seeing a ghost. He immediately retreated tactically and pulled Fan Yiye, who was completely out of shape, to dodge together.
Yan Jue's lips curled up into a faint smile, and he reached out and hooked her finger: "Whoever gets hurt is a puppy."
"Ah," Rong Xiao hooked his finger hard, "It's definitely not me, hehe."
Fan Yiye was a little confused. Although he didn't want to gossip, he couldn't help but ask, "Are they... a couple?"
"I'm not sure." Shangguan Yu told the truth.
"Aren't you a team?" Fan Yiye was shocked.
"Because we were a team, we didn't know about this, but we felt the atmosphere was not right, so it seemed more correct to just explain that we didn't know."
Fan Yiye: “…”
I don't really understand what's wrong with young people nowadays.
Tian Yichuang successfully drove the car into the red circle on the map.
This is a seemingly ordinary corner of a city. At present, it seems that the supernatural power has not disappeared. From time to time, the sound of zombies can be heard, but no shadows can be seen.
"We separated here at the beginning," Qin Zhe signaled the car to stop and pointed to an intersection leading to a small alley. "Everyone was in groups of three and went to different places. But when I looked for them later, I found nothing. I only found some dropped items."
Long Qingyu knocked on the iron bars that separated the cab and said, "Park the car here."
There was no sign of danger or ambush around, and even Rong Xiao's keen crisis sensing ability did not give any alarm.
Park the car and everyone gets out with their bags on.
Long Qingyu adjusted his rifle belt and said seriously, "If you discover anything unusual, send a signal flare immediately and reunite before taking the next step. Once a signal flare is launched nearby, the nearest team should drop it and rush over together." Suddenly thinking of something, he reminded them, "Whether sending a signal or rushing over to respond, be careful to avoid an ambush."
"clear."
The four teams headed in different directions. Rong Xiao led Shangguan Yu and Qin Zhe and took the road where Qin Zhe had discovered Brother Quan's dagger.
Shangguan Yu held his weapon and looked around calmly, while the other two were extremely nervous, their nerves seemed to be about to break.
"Hey..." Shangguan Yu raised his hand and patted Qin Zhe, scaring him so much that he jumped up on the spot like a cat with its fur standing on end.
Qin Zhe looked back with bloodshot eyes: "What's wrong??"
"You two are too nervous, aren't you? Relax a little," Shangguan Yu frowned. It didn't seem like he was trying to comfort them, but rather that he was annoyed that their nervousness was affecting him. "It seems like your nervousness has spilled over and is affecting others."
"Ah," Qin Zhe took a few deep breaths embarrassedly, "I'm just worried... After all, I don't know when the situation that makes my superpowers ineffective will suddenly appear."
"Rong Xiao is here." Shangguan Yu answered a question that was not asked.
Fan Yiye held his gun high, aiming at it at all times, not even putting it down while talking: "I know Rong Xiao has many and powerful abilities, but I'm just afraid that his abilities will suddenly fail..."
"Rong Xiao is here too." Shangguan Yu said confidently, and suddenly felt a little sympathy for this group of people.
Have you ever enjoyed the peace of mind brought by Rong Xiao’s huge backing?
Whether he has special abilities or not, it does not affect Rong Xiao's performance.
Fan Yiye and Qin Zhe looked at each other, trying to regulate their breathing to calm themselves.
But the fear of unknown dangers in their hearts dominated everything. No matter how they tried to convince themselves, they always felt their muscles were tense and something was wrong.
This was different from their previous missions, as they had to go even though they knew there was danger.
The danger is invisible and intangible, and if they are not careful, the supernatural powers they are proud of will be eliminated, like a huge trap.
"Wait a minute," Qin Zhe, who had been paying attention to the surrounding situation, suddenly squatted down and picked up a pendant on the ground, "This belongs to a member of our team!"
"Not before?" Shangguan Yu asked.
Qin Zhe shook his head: "Probably not, I've looked for this road before."
This is barely good news for everyone.
"Click." There was a light sound behind me.
Qin Zhe quickly turned around, and at the same time Fan Yiye turned the gun around -
A small stone rolled down from the ruins, gurgling and stopping in the middle of the road.
"I was so scared, it turned out to be a stone." Qin Zhe and Fan Yiye turned around cursing.
Shangguan Yu curled his lips and continued walking forward with his weapon in hand.
Rong Xiao took the lead in front.
After walking about five meters, she suddenly stopped and turned around quickly. The movement was so fast that Qin Zhe and Fan Yiye behind her could not react. They only felt their necks tighten, as if something was pulling them and they flew out.
Fan Yiye felt a push on his stomach, his body lost weight, and he flew to the side and fell to the ground.
However, the moment he fell to the ground, he immediately raised his gun and aimed in the direction Rong Xiao was facing.
brush--
A black shadow moved at an extremely fast speed and dodged behind the vehicle next to it.
Fan Yiye got goosebumps all over his body.
This speed is abnormal...
Definitely not an ordinary zombie or human.
At this speed, he even had difficulty aiming.
Rong Xiao walked forward and stared at the place where the black shadow had just passed. "Shangguan, look at this...it's a footprint."
"Well, the footprints, there's a high possibility they're zombies."
There were several fresh footprints on the dusty ground. Strangely, one was barefoot and the other had the pattern of a shoe sole.
The black shadow just now was probably only wearing a shoe on one foot.
It's the end of the world. Although there is no need to be particular, it is not difficult to find a pair of shoes. It is very easy to injure the soles of your feet if you don't wear shoes. If they get infected or ulcerated, it will be a big trouble.
"But it's very fast and can hide. If it's a zombie, it's probably not an ordinary zombie." Fan Yiye raised his gun and aimed at the direction of the car, ready to be ready at any time.
Rong Xiao nodded, not taking the enemy lightly, and asked, "Brother Fan, can you keep up with the aim?"
Having never worked with Fan Yiye before, she was not sure whether Fan Yiye's marksmanship was as reliable as Long Qingyu's.
"I'm afraid it will fail. I can only try my best." Fan Yiye didn't care about his face and told the truth.
Qin Zhe calmed down at the critical moment, gripped his weapon tightly, and asked, "Do you need me to go over there and lure it out?"
"No, it's very fast," Rong Xiao raised his hand to stop it, "It was not easy for me to push you away just now."
Her voice came out clearly, then faded away with the wind.
Rustle...bang!
The black shadow hiding behind the car suddenly jumped up, stepped on the roof and pounced directly towards Qin Zhe.
The speed was very fast, but it did not prevent Rong Xiao from determining what exactly he was.
The black shadow that soared into the air was a person, or perhaps it should be said... a zombie.
His face was pale, with bite wounds on the top of his head, and his eyes were a deep royal blue with bloodshot in the whites.
His legs were deformed, not curved like a normal human leg, but rather like a canine's hind legs.
The open mouth was filled with sharp teeth, which were no longer the human teeth of an ordinary zombie.
Qin Zhe also saw the general picture. When facing danger, there is no time to be afraid. He swung his weapon as fast as he could, but still couldn't catch up before the monster shortened the distance.
The speed was so fast that it was unbelievable, as if some strange supernatural power had been activated.
“Ouch—”
The monster howled, and the bloody smell from its teeth seemed to have penetrated Qin Zhe's breath.
He felt as if time had stopped for a moment, and a voice in his heart asked himself if he would regret it.
regret.
I regret not being more careful and not reacting faster.
But if he were given another choice, he would still come back. He is not afraid of death, he just wants to rescue all his teammates back to the safe zone safely.
But now it seems that his wish is a ridiculous luxury that slaps him in the face.
He's about to die just at the beginning...why should I save him?
"Catch up!" A pleasant voice sounded beside my ears, like the sound of nature, with an excitement that was completely different from the atmosphere.
Qin Zhe saw that person coming towards him, and he couldn't dodge in time and was hit directly -
But the zombie didn't bite him.
There was no pain from the biting, no blood, but the head hit his head so hard that it hurt and his whole head was buzzing.
Only the head.
The black shadow that pounced on him fell one meter away, and only his head flew over and hit Qin Zhe's forehead, then bounced into the grass next to him.
Not far away, Rong Xiao was holding the big knife she had just chosen, with blood still dripping from the blade.
Shangguan Yu had quickly moved to her side like a magnet, holding his weapon and seemingly guarding his surroundings seriously.
"Rong...Rong Xiao!!" Qin Zhe excitedly called her name in a hoarse voice.
"Ah?" Not far away, Rong Xiao was rubbing his knife on a zombie's corpse because he was annoyed by the blood dripping from it.
Qin Zhe: “…” It’s scary.
"Keep going forward?" Fan Yiye pointed ahead with the muzzle of his gun.
His heart was beating wildly, as if he had experienced life and death again, and then hovered on the brink of death again, his heart beating wildly.
"Continue," Rong Xiao instructed, "There should be more zombies like the ones just now."
Qin Zhe and Fan Yiye were furious: "!!!"
"They threw the rock just now to make us let down our guard," Rong Xiao said, her weapon in hand, her sense of danger still lingering as she spoke. "There was nothing there when we approached. How could a small rock suddenly roll out? It's obvious they were trying to distract us."
Shangguan Yu smiled meaningfully when he heard this: "Wow, now you know how to think with your brain."
"That's right." Rong Xiao was extremely proud.
"And just now, as soon as Rong Xiao said she was limited in her ability to handle it, the zombies immediately attacked and dodged. They weren't acting on instinct," Shangguan Yu said, moving closer to Rong Xiao, as if he had to stay within her safe range. "I suspect these zombies retain some consciousness, and their speed has evolved to a terrifying degree. They're not easy to deal with."
The zombies rampaging around before were already troublesome enough, but now we have to deal with a mutant that has also retained some consciousness?
Isn't this similar to dealing with a mutated and evolved mutant?
Qin Zhe felt terrible when he thought about how strong the enemy was.
"Or, send a signal immediately..." Fan Yiye was uncertain and turned to look at Rong Xiao with a asking look in his eyes.
Although the group did not designate a person in charge, Fan Yiye felt an irresistible force suppressing Rong Xiao and instinctively regarded her as the core of the four people.
"Not for now," Rong Xiao shook her head, her eyes sweeping around the corners. "I suspect their goal is to lure us together and catch us all in one fell swoop. They just deliberately let out only one zombie to disrupt our formation. Now, I'm afraid they're waiting for us to send a signal flare to lure everyone into this trap."
After she finished speaking her mind, she noticed that Shangguan Yu next to her opened his lips slightly, as if someone had snatched away his chance to express himself.
After being stunned for a long time, Shangguan Yu pursed his lips and said, "You said everything I wanted to say."
"Did I use my brain to think well?!" Rong Xiao's tone changed instantly, and he excitedly asked for praise.
Shangguan Yu raised his eyebrows slightly: "Well, not bad."
"Hehe." Rong Xiao smiled and took a few steps forward when he suddenly stopped.
She raised her hand, silently signaling others not to move, and the expression on her face suddenly became serious.
Not only Rong Xiao, but others also noticed that something was wrong around them.
Fan Yiye secretly used his supernatural powers, but his metal supernatural powers failed at such a tense moment.
It was fine just now!
"Have we reached that range?" Fan Yiye asked Qin Zhe.
Qin Zhe's foot was raised in the air, not knowing whether to put it down or continue to lift it. His cheeks flushed red, and he was so surprised that he could hardly speak clearly: "No, that's not right. When I came here before, I could use supernatural powers in this range."
Is this range still alive?
Can I run around by myself?
Rong Xiao looked around again, quickly retreated a few steps, and returned to their side in a few steps.
She stepped back and did a simple test.
The supernatural power suddenly lost its effect.
The range of the supernatural power that was available just now is no longer available.
Just as Qin Zhe said, this restriction on the scope of people's use of supernatural powers is changing their movements.
"The real challenge is here." Fan Yiye gripped the gun handle tightly, keeping his finger on the trigger at all times, not daring to be distracted for even a moment.
The weather is gloomy today and the wind is very strong, making a constant rustling sound around.
Several times they thought there was a sneak attack, but it turned out to be just dead leaves swirling on the ground.
These seemingly subtle and inconspicuous movements are actually inevitable interferences that distract their attention.
There is a small square in front of the shopping mall.
There are several tall buildings rising from the ground around, enclosing a circular decorative area in the middle, and a lot of debris is dumped on both sides of the road.
There were cars crashing into walls, overturned trash cans and street lights, and quite a few bicycles and cardboard boxes.
The surrounding plants grew very tall despite no one taking care of them. Some of them even climbed out of the flower beds. The grass and vines as tall as a person affected the view.
Sometimes when the wind blows, it seems like something will come out from inside. After they look for a long time, they find that it was just blown away by the wind and there is nothing there.
"Be careful, this terrain is very easy to be ambushed." Shangguan Yu tried a few more times, but his supernatural power still had not recovered.
