The night was quiet, the bonfire was crackling, and several people in charge of night watch were sitting there.
At this time, everyone felt a long-lost sense of relaxation.
Several people gathered together, talking in a flurry.
"I think Pei Jin and Ruan Lingran, walking side by side, must be a couple." A little girl in a red dress said with a smile.
When we finally have some time to rest, everyone always likes to discuss some lively gossip.
As the core of everything, Ruan Lingran and Pei Jin are the ones everyone pays the most attention to.
However, apart from the concern itself, everyone is also a little curious.
"I think Pei Jin is just a pretty boy. He follows Boss Ruan around every day and doesn't look like he has any real abilities."
No one has ever truly seen Pei Jin's strength, so naturally they would have some doubts now.
"Boss Ruan's abilities are obvious to all. We still need to work hard. How about we enter the Huaxia base?"
"That base isn't very big, and there aren't many things inside. If we really go there, other than the food being a little better, everything else won't be comparable to what we have at our base."
Some people tried to persuade them, but some were also tempted.
Here, there are so many people with water-related abilities, which at least guarantees everyone's freedom to use water.
If they really followed Ruan Lingran, without water and electricity, they would be forced to return to primitive society!
"Forget it, let's take our time."
After discussion, these people gradually gave up their ideas.
Pei Jin and Ruan Lingran heard all of their discussions.
Ruan Lingran's eyes were full of teasing as she looked at him with a smile: "Little white face, do you have any ideas?"
"Then please take good care of me, Boss Ruan."
Pei Jin noticed the smile in Ruan Lingran's tone and spoke frankly.
With the resources Ruan Lingran has now, anyone who gets close to her will be taking advantage of her!
"Forget it, Boss Ruan is almost starving to death."
Ruan Lingran quickly shook her head. It was almost time and she still needed to rest. There was no need to waste time arguing.
Seeing her running away, Pei Jin just raised his eyebrows and reached out to fiddle with the bonfire, making the flames burn brighter.
After the zombie rat incident, everyone leaned there quietly, unable to sleep.
If a zombie rat suddenly rushes over, they will have no choice but to wait for death!
Amidst such complex circumstances, Ruan Lingran closed her eyes and slowly fell asleep.
Out of some kind of vigilance, she held a few talismans in her hands.
Whenever someone approaches her, she can use the talisman to control those people in the first place!
The chirping sound suddenly rang out around them, like the sound of a devil piercing their ears, scaring many people so much that they sat up instantly.
Their bodies were tense and they looked around trying to find any trace of zombie rats.
But the beast was very cunning and hid well.
"Wake up those who are sleeping around you. Our most important thing now is to ensure the safety of those around us."
Pei Jin saw that they were motionless, but just alert and reminded them.
In the end times, the most important thing should be the companions around you!
After hearing these words, some people started to move and quickly woke up the people around them.
Ruan Lingran also heard the noise, but no one went over to call her.
The ground suddenly began to shake. It was only the first night, but these zombie rats had already begun to prevent them from sleeping.
A ball rushed out from the ground at a very fast speed and headed towards Ruan Lingran's position.
When Ren Sisi in the corner saw this scene, her eyes widened instantly. She waved her fingers, wishing she could replace the rat and kill Ruan Lingran directly.
The zombie rat broke out of the ground at Ruan Lingran's waist.
Ruan Lingran still had her eyes closed, and it seemed that she was really going to die here. Some people who had less endurance could not help but close their eyes.
Although they didn't spend much time with Ruan Lingran, her healing talisman really helped them a lot.
What a pity, such a good girl is going to die like this...
Just when they had an idea, they saw a big net quickly spread out, trapping the zombie rats there!
Seeing this scene, everyone was staring in amazement.
You know, the speed of the zombie rat itself is not slow. Ruan Lingran was able to catch it just by subconsciously acting. How fast must her reaction speed be?
Ruan Lingran, who was being stared at by everyone, finally slowly opened her eyes, with a hint of doubt in her dark eyes.
A squeaking sound came from not far away. The zombie rat's eyes were clearly filled with unwillingness as it glared at Ruan Lingran.
"It's a beast that has become a spirit. At first glance, I thought it was something else."
Looking at the pointed-nosed and monkey-faced appearance of the zombie rat, Ruan Lingran clicked her tongue and clenched her fingers. The five-element cage made of the five-element talisman was also slowly shrinking.
The mice squealed a little louder, and there seemed to be many more scarlet eyes around them.
However, Ruan Lingran was not at all concerned about this. She just watched silently and slowly applied pressure.
The zombie rat screamed even louder, and the surrounding rats joined in.
The sound waves mixed together to form an indestructible attack.
Some people with poor endurance had blood coming out of all their orifices, with a ferocious expression on their faces. They stretched out their hands as if they wanted to catch something, but could only stop passively.
Ruan Lingran also lowered her head. At this moment, she had a little tinnitus. The originally quiet mouse seemed to open its mouth and speak, talking about letting it go.
"You beast, you deserve to die!" Ruan Lingran's fingers were almost close to the rope that bound the zombie rat. With the last bit of her sanity, all her memories gradually came back to her. Her fingers changed, and suddenly she pinched a five-element talisman.
The moment the talisman fell on the zombie rat, an extremely dazzling flame appeared instantly.
Most people would only feel warm when seeing flames, but now, the burning zombie rat only made a sharp scream.
Shouts came one after another around them, and Ruan Lingran stretched out her hand and threw out a few healing talismans.
A light green color spread around them, protecting the people around them just right.
The screams gradually faded away, and everyone's hearts calmed down little by little.
Those with poor physical fitness spit out blood, but they were still able to force a smile.
Seeing them like this, Ruan Lingran finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"These beasts can attack from behind any corner at any time, so you must protect yourselves."
She gave a reminder, and when the sounds of the mice at the scene became weaker, the green color gradually dissipated.
A black shadow flashed past. Ruan Lingran's previous behavior was a provocation to the rats. Now they could no longer hold back and took the initiative to attack.
A wave of zombie rats rushed towards them. Many people screamed and retreated, but Pei Jin quickly moved forward, wrapped his fist in flames, and punched the zombie rat on the head!
