Chapter 89 Haircut
Chi Yanzhou's lightning-based binding technique tightly entangled the tiger within the lightning net.
The violent lightning kept striking, but unexpectedly, it escalated the tiger's attack.
When Lu Nange and her group arrived, they were greeted by a scene of hell—a mix of fire and thunder, making it impossible for anyone to get close.
"Ayan! Brother Yan! Put away the superpowers first!" Gu Qi's shout was swallowed by the sound of the explosion.
Chi Yanzhou's eyes were red at the corners, his superpower was somewhat overdrawn, and he was relying entirely on his mental strength to keep going, so he couldn't hear any sounds from the outside world.
Lu Nange made a quick decision: "Zhuo-ge, Ji Xian, use earth to put out the fire!"
He Zhuo and Ji Xian simultaneously bent down and slammed their hands on the ground, causing the ground to tremble violently, and countless clods of earth rained down on the sea of fire.
In the brief moment when the fire subsided slightly, everyone finally saw the figure at the center of the thunderstorm.
Chi Yanzhou's supernatural abilities are nearly exhausted.
Hearing Lu Nange's voice faintly, he paused slightly, and his unfocused pupils suddenly focused.
He raised his arms, squeezing out the last vestige of his supernatural power—
"Boom!"
Lightning exploded across the entire sky above the tiger's head, and in the blinding flashes of light, the tiger let out a mournful roar.
However, the white tiger continued to struggle, continuously spewing fireballs from its mouth.
The macaw was fed a few crystals and squawked excitedly.
Obediently, it spat out an ice spike and leaped into the encirclement of flames.
They carried the rickety Chi Yanzhou out.
Lu Nange: "Brother Gu Qi, now is the time."
Gu Qi sprayed water at the tiger.
"Aye, Sister Xingyou."
Lu Beiye's golden throwing knife and Luo Xingyou's darts attacked the tiger from all directions.
The moment water and metal intertwine, the power of lightning surges!
The tiger was convulsing wildly in the conductive wire mesh.
Taking advantage of the situation, Lu Nange unleashed a hurricane, transforming the remaining flames into a towering wall of fire that surrounded the tiger.
"roar--"
The tiger's screams echoed through the sky.
Just as everyone breathed a sigh of relief—"Roar!!"
Amidst the raging flames, a charred skeleton suddenly burst forth!
The stark white bones, accompanied by sparks, hurtled towards the crowd at an astonishing speed.
"Gangzi! Freeze it!"
The macaw flapped its wings, and a burst of icy cold air shot out.
In an instant, the skeletal tiger remained in its pouncing posture, frozen within the crystalline ice.
"Beauty, beauty, my name isn't Gangzi!"
"I'll change your name another day!" Lu Nange replied casually, but in her heart she was thinking: [Just as I thought... level three and above mutated beasts are driven by crystal cores. As long as the crystal core isn't destroyed, they can move even if only their skeletons remain! Gangzi's level isn't high enough, so he can only freeze this heavily injured level four beast for now...]
Without hesitation, she unleashed her mental power and locked onto the ice sculpture.
With a wave of his right hand, several wind blades precisely cut into the ice.
"bite--"
The orange crystal core rolled around on the scorched earth a few times before finally stopping at Lu Nange's feet.
With a crisp "crack," the tiger ice sculpture shattered, turning into ice shards scattered all over the ground.
Gu Qi and He Zhuo simultaneously raised their hands and extinguished the remaining flames completely.
The crowd either leaned against the broken wall or slumped to the ground, not wanting to move a finger.
Chi Yanzhou was thrown into Lu Xici's arms by the macaw.
Wen Qing immediately stepped forward, and a light white healing light instantly enveloped Chi Yanzhou's entire body.
As the last wisp of black smoke dissipated from the flames, Chi Yanzhou's eyelashes trembled, and he slowly opened his eyes.
Before his gaze could even focus, it locked onto Lu Nange, who was covered in blood: "Nannan...you're injured?"
"I'm fine! Everyone's fine!" Lu Nange tugged at the fabric clinging to her body, frowning in disgust. "Let's find a place to take a shower and change my clothes?"
All the major animals in Shashi died, except for one traitorous macaw.
Hordes of mutated animals swarmed towards the smell of blood, crawling all over the chimpanzee's corpse like locusts, frantically devouring the flesh.
A flash of lightning appeared between Chi Yanzhou's fingers.
The entire area was instantly engulfed in lightning and thunder, and the low-level mutated beasts convulsed and turned into charred remains.
"You leveled up?" Lu Nange raised an eyebrow.
Feeling the surging supernatural power within him, Chi Yanzhou shook his head: "Just one step away."
Lu Nange smiled, her eyes reddening, inwardly thinking: [The final push... I really want the tiger to fight me again!!!]
......
There are almost no intact buildings in this area.
The fierce battle that had taken place earlier had destroyed most of the neighborhood, and the surviving residents had long since fled without a trace.
The group found a shady spot under a tree, which served as a makeshift temporary shelter.
Lu Nange took the car out of her spatial storage.
"Nan Nan, get another SUV," Chi Yanzhou suddenly said.
Without turning her head, she waved her hand, and another modified off-road vehicle appeared out of thin air.
"Caw! That scared me to death! That scared me to death!" The macaw flapped its wings and paced back and forth on the roof of the car.
Soon, two SUVs appeared, one on the left and one on the right, protecting the RV in the middle.
The boys spontaneously dispersed to the two off-road vehicles to keep watch, while the girls went into the RV to wash up.
As soon as Lu Nange stepped into the bathroom, the macaw shrank and followed her in.
Lu Nange grabbed it and threw it out the door without any mercy.
"Knock knock knock!"
The parrot persisted, pecking incessantly at the bathroom door with its beak.
"Beauty, open the door! Beauty, open the door!"
In the end, Gu Wan used the crystal core as bait to lure it away.
Lu Nange washed herself five times with warm water before she stopped.
The hardest thing to clean was her hair—after the zombies appeared, she cut her long hair to shoulder length. She wanted to shave it short, but she was afraid that it would be even more stuffy on her head.
I simply cut my hair shoulder-length and wore it in a high or low bun every day, which actually made me feel more refreshed.
She stepped out of the bathroom, twirling the ends of her hair with her fingers and muttering, "I'll have to trim it shorter later."
Wen Qingzheng and Gu Wan were feeding the macaws when they heard this and looked up: "Nan Nan, do you want to get a haircut?"
"Hmm." Lu Nange shook her half-dry hair: "It's too long and gets in the way."
"Then... I'll cut your hair after I shower?" Wen Qing's voice suddenly softened: "I used to often cut my daughter's hair..."
The words faded into silence.
Gu Wan immediately leaned over and grabbed her hair: "Sister Wen Qing, please cut mine shorter too! Otherwise, it'll be too much of a disadvantage if someone pulls my hair during a fight!"
This abrupt interruption made Wen Qing smile: "Okay, I'll cut your hair after I'm done washing."
Macaw: "Cut them all! Cut them all!"
After Wen finished showering, she and Lu Nange got off the RV.
Lu Nange had her brothers set up a small canopy, and the macaws flapped their wings, circling around her to cool her down.
Everyone took a shower and changed into clean clothes one after another.
They lined up to ask Wen Qing to help them with their haircuts.
Lu Nange's hair was still shoulder-length, while Gu Wan and Luo Xingyou had both cut their hair short.
Gu Wan has short hair that reaches her ears, while Luo Xingyou has a blunt cut.
All the boys had chestnut-shaped haircuts.
Only Lu Beiye sported a small, neatly trimmed top by Wen Qing, and his chubby face paired with this hairstyle made him look like a little dumpling.
When it was He Zhuo's turn, something went wrong—his half-red, half-black hair made him look like a non-mainstream person.
The macaw circled him, squawking and hopping around: "Ugly freak! Peek-a-boo!"
"Shut up, you dead bird!"
"Gah! Red-haired monster!"
The man and the bird exchanged increasingly vulgar insults, until finally the parrot's feathers bristled in anger, threatening to freeze He Zhuo into an ice sculpture...
"Gangzi!" Lu Nange swiftly grabbed the bird by the neck and shoved a crystal core into its mouth: "Don't you want your snack anymore?"
The parrot immediately wilted, and He Zhuo was about to triumphantly toss its head in a show of bravado—"Crack!"
