Chapter 14: Creatures Under the Bridge
Jiang Xueyao couldn't get rid of the cold feeling in her mind.
"Dad, Mom, I feel that my sister has changed a lot."
The words were still gentle and kind, but in reality they were filled with jealousy, as they had thought she would have a miserable life and hadn't even considered that she was still alive, so after the apocalypse, they hadn't thought to look for her much.
But I didn't expect to see her in this place. Not only that, but she is living a better life than her!
How could Jiang Xueyao, who had always been superior to Jiang Zixuan since childhood, tolerate this!
No, she would never allow it!
The Nanjing base was established in Anyuan City.
The terrain after the apocalypse is not easy to travel. Not only are there zombies, but there is no telling how many dangers are hidden along the way.
Jiang Zixuan was driving but did not go towards the shallow sea highway.
It's the holiday season, and the highway is full of cars, so there is naturally no shortage of zombies.
She drove towards the side road, where there were quite a few zombies.
Sometimes I would stop the car to fight zombies, take crystal cores, and practice my skills.
Although he has the experience and skills of the last ten years of the world.
But after all, it is not the same body. The current one has not undergone any training and is relying only on her previous experience and skills, so her physical body cannot keep up.
In this way, after driving for a few days, we finally saw the Shangjin Bridge in the distance.
This is the bridge connecting Shangjin City to Anyuan City.
If you want to go to Nanjing Base, you must cross this bridge, and it is the only passage.
Below the bridge is the surging sea.
There were also many vehicles standing on the bridge that had passed by before the end of the world. There were many staggering zombies with pale faces wandering on the road. Among them were quite a few convoys that wanted to cross the bridge.
For a moment, one could clearly see the powers activated by the psychic, ice, fire, gold...
Jiang Zixuan did not step forward.
She parked the car one kilometer away and looked carefully at the bridge in front of her.
The bridge was not as solid as it was before the apocalypse, and it even shook slightly. Not only that, it was full of potholes, as if it had been gnawed by some large creature.
She cast her eyes on the sea.
The color of the sea water is no longer as blue as it was before the end of the world, and it is now gray.
After the end of the world, not only humans will mutate, but even animals and plants will mutate, not to mention the creatures in the sea.
No one knows what's going on inside.
In the previous life, ten years after the end of the world, the top personnel of the base seemed to tacitly avoid this land in the sea.
After all, even before the end of the world when technology was advanced, it was not possible to fully explore the conditions in the ocean.
Now that the situation has become complicated, precarious, and uncertain, and everyone is trying to protect themselves, who would still step forward even though they know the danger?
Therefore, in the previous life, even until Jiang Zixuan's death, no one had touched this area.
At this moment, the little tiger cub in the space said excitedly: "My Queen! I have extracted the energy from the jade!"
Last time in the jade shop, after Jiang Zixuan put all the jade into the space, the little tiger cub realized that there was something unusual going on.
After recovering some of his skills, the tiger cub explored the spiritual power inside.
I could sense the pure energy inside and was instantly pleasantly surprised.
Such pure energy.
But after all, it is inside the jade, so it still takes some effort to extract it.
After talking to Jiang Zixuan, she asked it to help retrieve it.
So during this period of time, it didn't even read its favorite novel, and was focused on extracting energy.
Jiang Zixuan was surprised when she heard this.
So fast?
The little tiger cub happily wagged its long tail, looking fierce and timid, blinking its blue eyes at Jiang Zixuan: "Queen, am I awesome?!"
Jiang Zixuan held her forehead and met those eyes with a hint of expectation. Looking at its arrogant look, she felt soft in her heart for some reason. "Well, you are the best."
The little tiger cub immediately started to show off, "I know I'm the best!"
As it spoke, its furry tiger horns suddenly squinted, and its eyes narrowed with laughter. It said proudly:
"Queen, I will transfer this energy to you now, just like the energy of the crystal core. You have to circulate it yourself. If you are good at it, you can even improve your supernatural powers~"
Jiang Zixuan nodded, "Okay, I understand."
As soon as she finished speaking, she felt a gentle energy entering her body. The energy was very pure and powerful.
Jiang Zixuan was delighted, thinking that maybe this time, she could enter the second level.
Thinking of him like this, she looked at the little tiger cub and said, "Cub, help me pay attention to the surroundings. If there are zombies coming, call me."
The little tiger cub said happily: "Okay, Queen, don't worry."
******
"Boss, we will soon reach Shangjin Bridge, and then Anyuan City." In the car, Jingwen adjusted his glasses, holding a map in his hand, and said to Jin Mohan, who had a cold expression in the back seat.
Jin Mohan supported his forehead with one bony hand and rested the other on his leg, tapping it intermittently. His pair of dark eyes were staring outside. He nodded slightly when he heard Jingwen's words.
"Okay, notify everyone to be on alert and cross the Shangjin Bridge quickly."
Jingwen nodded, "Okay."
With a "crack", Jiang Zixuan sensed that the first-level barrier in her body was broken.
There was a rich energy in her body, and she suddenly felt full of strength.
He opened his eyes, a smile flashing in them.
The little tiger cub noticed that she had finished her training, and when he saw her, he instantly narrowed his eyes in happiness.
"Wow! You are worthy of being the Queen! You have reached the middle stage of the second stage in an instant!"
Jiang Zixuan smiled. She didn’t expect that this energy would allow her to directly enter the middle stage of the second level.
Spanning two levels.
This harvest is undoubtedly huge.
"Thank you, little one." She looked outside and it was still the same as before, but no one on the bridge was crossing the bridge.
There were fewer people here than when she came last time.
There were no more than twenty of them.
Some people even retreated.
She couldn't help but narrow her eyes.
It was true that there were many zombies, but what concerned her were the creatures under the bridge.
"Baby, can you see what creatures are on the seafloor?"
The little tiger cub moved the screen in the space, looked through it, and his eyes widened instantly.
What is this?!
Jiang Zixuan raised her eyebrows. What did he see that made him look like that?
The little tiger cub swallowed and lowered his head to think of the adjectives that could be used in his head, "Hmm... this..."
Jiang Zixuan waved her hands and looked at it helplessly, "Why? It's hard to say?"
“It’s huge and ugly!”
She couldn't help but give it a blank look. How could a mutant beast be good-looking?
And it’s very big?
How big is very big? Why did you say it three times?
It was not until Jiang Zixuan really faced the strange beast that she understood what the concept of "very big" meant.
She drove straight over there.
There are quite a few zombies, about a hundred.
Jiang Zixuan frowned, and rows of ice needles flew up.
A piece of it fell down in an instant.
The others watched as Jiang Zixuan attracted the zombies' attention.
They all ran away in an instant, "Hurry up! Otherwise it will be too late!"
Jiang Zixuan's eyes darkened.
