Chapter 127 The Master's Invitation
After losing sight of the group of pursuers, Yuka drove her car for a distance on the road.
Only after confirming it was safe did she apply the brakes and bring the car to a steady stop next to an abandoned factory.
Yu Xiang turned her head to look at Qiao Yue beside her and asked, "Yueyue, were those people from the base before?"
Qiao Yue nodded. "Yes, I've seen some of them a few times at the base."
Yuka: "Why are they still chasing me?"
Qiao Yue sighed softly, her expression turning serious, and analyzed, "This must be the lord's order."
Yuka: "If the lord is only afraid that I will cause harm to the base while I am inside, now that I am no longer at the base, are you still unwilling to let me go?"
Qiao Yue: "Because you are not human, but a zombie, and a very unique zombie at that."
Yuka's eyes held a hint of sadness, and her voice was somewhat low, "But I have never intentionally harmed a human."
Qiao Yue reached out and gently ruffled Youxiang's hair, comforting her, "Alright, let's not talk about this anymore. People are always wary and afraid of those who are different; it's human instinct. Now, let's think about where to go next."
She appropriately changed the subject, not wanting Xiaoyouzi to continue to worry about it.
Yu Xiang shook her head, a hint of confusion on her face. "I want to keep looking for Yan Yan and the others, but I have absolutely no idea where to start."
After a moment's thought, Qiao Yue tapped lightly on the car window and said, "If we could leave some information so my sister and the others could find us, that would be great. But that would also put us in danger. After all, the people at the Bright Base haven't given up looking for us yet. If we leave any information, they might find us..."
Let Yan Yan and Brother Chen find them.
This idea kept repeating itself in Yuka's mind.
Seeing that Youxiang was lost in thought, Qiao Yue gently nudged her and said, "Little Youzi, what are you daydreaming about? Did you hear what I said?"
Yuka snapped out of her daze and nodded subconsciously. "I heard you."
Qiao Yue didn't doubt it, and continued, "So, let's take it one step at a time for now."
"good."
Youxiang doesn't have any specific goals right now; she just does whatever Qiao Yue tells her to do.
...
In the days that followed, Youxiang and Qiaoyue seemed to be caught in an endless escape.
They remained highly vigilant at all times, fearing they might accidentally encounter someone.
In each new place he arrived, he was pursued by different people.
Later, they learned from some scattered snippets of conversation that Yuxiang's story had become widely known and almost everyone knew about it.
Moreover, many people were holding Yu Xiang's portrait, which was like a wanted poster. As soon as they showed up, they would be recognized instantly.
Then they will be caught in one chase after another, as if there is no end in sight.
Meanwhile, Youxiang and Qiaoyue were strolling around a city when they accidentally bumped into a group of people who were searching for supplies.
The group immediately gave chase as soon as they spotted them.
Youxiang and Qiaoyue ran frantically ahead, looking somewhat disheveled, while the group of people chased closely behind them, attacking them with their supernatural abilities.
They were actually quite strong, but they couldn't withstand the overwhelming numbers of their opponents.
Moreover, they have been repeatedly attacked by groups of people chasing them, which has left them both distressed and exhausted.
Yuka has a special constitution; her recovery ability and physical fitness are much stronger than ordinary people, and she can recover relatively quickly even if she is injured.
But for Qiao Yue, the situation was not so optimistic. Her injuries had not yet healed before she suffered new ones, even though those wounds were not fatal.
Yu Xiang watched as Qiao Yue's pace gradually slowed down, and gritted her teeth. "Yueyue, their target is me. Let's split up. That way, you might be able to get rid of them and avoid the risks I'm taking."
Upon hearing this, Qiao Yue grabbed Youxiang's hand and said as she ran, "No, you can't face danger alone. We're partners, so we should face all difficulties together. I won't abandon you."
"Yueyue." Youxiang gripped Qiao Yue's hand tightly. "Okay, we won't separate."
The two stopped talking and started running around recklessly, completely disregarding their direction and only thinking about getting rid of their pursuers as soon as possible.
The group of people chasing them suddenly stopped.
"Stop, we can't continue chasing ahead."
A tall, burly man with a menacing face shouted breathlessly.
"What's up ahead?" a thin man next to him asked in confusion.
"Ahead lies the territory of a powerful zombie, teeming with countless zombies. Going in would be suicide. Several groups of people went in without believing in its power and never came out again."
"That's what the tall man said, still shaken," he said.
...
As Qiao Yue ran, she kept an eye on the sounds behind her. When she noticed that the chasing sounds had suddenly stopped, she hurriedly called out, "Little Yuzu, stop for a moment."
Upon hearing Qiao Yue's shout, Youxiang abruptly stopped, her body lurching forward a few steps before regaining her balance. She turned around and asked in confusion, "What's wrong?"
Qiao Yue, panting heavily, glanced around and said, "Those people stopped chasing us, and something feels very wrong here."
Qiao Yue carefully observed her surroundings; everything here appeared clean and tidy.
The houses on both sides of the road looked like they had been renovated, and there wasn't much trash, corpses, or bloodstains on the ground. This place didn't look like a post-apocalyptic scene at all; it looked like someone had deliberately cleaned it up.
Yuka also noticed that something was wrong. She looked around warily, her body tense slightly, ready to deal with any potential danger.
"Meow!"
Just then, Mimi poked her head out of Yuxiang's bag, her round eyes looking around curiously.
Has something happened again?
Just then, a group of zombies suddenly emerged from behind the surrounding buildings. They staggered but moved quickly and soon surrounded Qiao Yue and Youxiang.
Qiao Yue looked at the densely packed zombies around her and was startled. "How come there are so many zombies here all of a sudden? But they don't seem to be planning to attack me."
Previously, whenever she encountered zombies, they would immediately pounce on her.
Yuka suddenly remembered something and said, "I feel like I've been to this place before."
Just then, the zombies surrounding them suddenly parted to make way, and a zombie dressed like a butler slowly walked out from the horde.
Although its face was ferocious, its movements were quite elegant. It stretched out a withered hand in an inviting gesture, and let out a low growl from its throat: "Roar!"
Miss Yuka, your master invites you to meet. The person next to you may come along.
