Chapter 122 Raising Little Zombies in the End of the World 6 There are People There
Today, because she has been promoted to level 2, Shen Qian's five senses are more sensitive than yesterday, and the feeling of being spied on is more obvious. She is almost certain that someone is following her secretly and observing her.
But she couldn't be sure who the other person was or where he was.
Shen Qian gripped the dagger in her hand tighter. No matter who the other party was, she had to protect her own safety at the first opportunity.
Not long after, the feeling of being followed disappeared, and Shen Qian breathed a sigh of relief. For her own safety, she decided to evacuate this place as soon as possible and join up with other team members.
After just going down two floors, Shen Qian sensed the danger coming and she immediately entered combat mode.
A huge black shadow then attacked her. It was tall and had black skin. At the moment of fighting, Shen Qian even saw the fangs in the opponent's mouth.
This kind of movement speed must be a mutant zombie!
In a flash, Shen Qian dodged its initial attack, tightly grasped the dagger in his right hand, and gathered the purifying power in his left hand, attacking the zombie.
In such a small place, it is much more convenient to use a knife than a gun. Moreover, after upgrading, the purification ability can also slow down the reaction of zombies in battle, sometimes buying her the necessary time to save her life.
However, even if the supernatural power could temporarily slow down the zombie's movements, this was a high-level zombie that she had never successfully fought against. After fighting for a while, Shen Qian gradually became exhausted.
She was concentrating on chopping zombies, but she didn't notice that in a small house opposite, a black claw was grabbing the window frame. The owner of the claw just leaned out of the window to look, but was grabbed by the collar by the person behind him and lifted up and taken away from the window.
"Wuwu...Wuwu! Mama!"
A boy was making ambiguous sounds and was still not obedient after being picked up. His limbs were flailing around trying to get back to the window.
The man holding him covered his mouth helplessly: "Your mother's hearing is better than before. She will hear you if you keep yelling like that."
The boy continued to struggle, leaving scratches on the back of the man's hand with his long nails.
The man threw him away, and the boy immediately ran to the window and looked out again.
"If your mother really finds you like this, she will just give you a volley of bullets."
After hearing this, the little boy shrank his neck and seemed to be afraid, but he was reluctant to leave the window and continued to look out the window perseveringly.
The man sighed, it’s so hard to take care of children.
He suddenly guessed what the boy was worried about: "Are you worried that your mother won't be able to fight and will be hurt by the zombies?"
No wonder, scaring him with bullets is useless.
The little boy whimpered and looked back at him pitifully, then came over and grabbed the hem of his clothes with his claws, but accidentally tore a hole in the hem of his clothes with a "hiss".
"You! Oh... never mind." The man was used to this situation and said, "I'll ask your mother to compensate me with a new one later. But don't worry, that zombie outside won't last long."
At this moment, the noise of fighting in the building opposite suddenly stopped, and the little boy ran to the window again. This time, he carefully stuck out only half of his head. Shen Qian happened to glance over here, and the little boy quickly covered his mouth to prevent himself from making any noise.
Fortunately, the people on the opposite side did not notice the situation here. When the boy saw that she was fine, he sat down under the window frame in a exhausted manner.
The man stood up, picked up the little boy, and left the place.
At this time, Shen Qian had finished the battle. In the last few seconds of fighting with the mutant zombie, the same situation as before occurred again. The zombie seemed to have been under a spell, and its movements suddenly became slow, as if it was seriously injured. It staggered and revealed a huge flaw. Shen Qian was already a psychic with rich combat experience. He killed it with one knife and skillfully took out the crystal core.
This is still a fourth-order purification crystal core!
Chen Qian suppressed the ecstasy in his heart, turned back to the dusty room, and immediately melted the crystal core.
The speed of fusion and absorption today is much faster than yesterday, but it is not so easy to advance from level 2 to level 3. Chen Qian has been mentally prepared for this.
Although she failed to upgrade, with the addition of this crystal core, Shen Qian felt that her supernatural powers were more abundant, giving her a better chance of survival in the apocalypse.
After everything was done, Shen Qian went downstairs as if nothing had happened.
After walking a distance, Shen Qian looked back at the small western-style building next to him, thought about it, and walked up with his knife tightly in hand.
The prying eyes that she had just felt seemed to be hidden in this building. Now that the feeling had disappeared, she was still worried and had to go up and check to be sure.
After searching for a while, Shen Qian found nothing and had to go downstairs.
Two buildings away, the little boy greedily watched the woman leave until she disappeared out of his sight. Then he turned around and looked at the man with a puzzled expression, mumbling something in his mouth.
"Hey, if you follow her now, she won't recognize you."
The boy's whining became louder.
The man then added: "Not now, it's not the right time yet. Wait until she gets promoted. Even if she recognizes you now, she can't afford to support you."
After hearing this, the little boy's big eyes were filled with hurt and grievance, but he seemed to be completely convinced and finally stopped protesting, but his whole body was like a punctured balloon, wilted.
The man just found it funny: "You are so difficult to raise, but I have raised you for a year, and you are just thinking about your mother. You are really heartless."
For the next two days, Zhuo Lin arranged corresponding cleaning tasks according to the locations given by Shen Qian. Coincidentally, the places Shen Qian wanted to go happened to be areas with many tasks.
What's even more coincidental is that as long as Shen Qian is alone, there will be mid- and high-level zombies lining up to deliver the goods to her door, and their "acting skills" are quite good. At the beginning, they will fight with Shen Qian, and when her fighting power is almost at its limit, she will accidentally fall to the ground and die.
Chen Qian somehow obtained a lot of high-quality crystal cores, but in the next two days, not only were there high-level purified crystal cores, but there were also some intermediate crystal cores.
The weird feeling in Shen Qian's heart could not be shaken off. She always felt that these zombies seemed to be deliberately arranged by someone, waiting for her to harvest them in these places.
However, Shen Qian was puzzled as to who had the ability to control these high-level zombies.
On the fourth day after reaching the second level, Chen Qian finally reached the third level again with the help of the purification crystal core he obtained!
This is an unimaginable upgrade speed for a psychic, but Chen Qian did it so easily.
She did not hide her upgrade from others, because even Xu Yingshuang had noticed that Shen Qian's abilities were very different from a few days ago. Especially every time she was alone, her abundant abilities seemed to overflow.
This made Xu Yingshuang jealous.
That day, Xu Yingshuang dragged Lin Wanfei to team up with Shen Qian, but when they were sweeping different rooms, Shen Qian seized the opportunity to kill a zombie, took out the crystal core and immediately fused it.
The movements were so skillful that there was no moment's consideration.
Xu Yingshuang couldn't stop him even if she wanted to, and could only watch Chen Qian ascend in front of her.
She almost interrupted him, but was stopped by Lin Wan.
"Xu Yingshuang, what are you doing?! She's in the process of leveling up. If you disturb her now, she could be injured or even killed. Can you afford the consequences?"
Xu Yingshuang knew she was in the wrong, and after being stopped by Lin Wan, she also realized that she had been reckless, but she refused to admit her mistake: "I know, she is your stepsister. I remember her. She used to live under the same roof with you. Didn't you hate her when you were in school? Why are you defending her now?"
Lin Wan said seriously, "It's one thing that I hate her, but it's another that your actions almost cost her her life. Don't do things you shouldn't do, or I won't clean up the mess for you, let alone cover up for you!"
Xu Yingshuang's face turned red and white, and she didn't want to be annoying here anymore. She turned around and was about to leave, but Lin Wan pulled her back: "Don't leave on your own. Now that we're on a team, you can't leave even if you feel uncomfortable! Otherwise, if you go out and get eaten by zombies, I can't take the blame!"
Xu Yingshuang knew that if she forced to leave, Lin Wan's stubborn personality might cause him to turn against her on the spot, and there was a possibility of violence.
As a second-level healer, he was no match for Lin Wan, a second-level fire ability user. In the end times, any relationship had to consider combat power, and whoever had the ability would argue louder.
Xu Yingshuang became completely obedient.
A hundred meters away, a man with a gloomy face put down the sniper rifle in his hand. The alarm was lifted, but the annoyance in his heart had not dissipated.
How could this woman have such stupid teammates around her? They were stupid and bad. If he wasn't afraid of scaring her, he would have wanted to shoot her in the head.
The little boy next to him had no idea what had just happened. He was still excitedly standing on tiptoe and pulling at his pants, wanting to see what was in the sight.
“Sizzle—”
Following the sound of textile being torn, the little boy looked at his claws in astonishment, then looked at the man's torn pants.
“Woo…”
If it were any other time, the man would have spoken up to him, but today he had a gloomy face and just glanced at the torn hole in the thigh of his pants, thinking it was harmless and not paying any attention to it.
After a moment of silence, the man finally asked, "Are you ready for today?"
The little boy was slightly startled and looked at him with his head tilted.
The man didn't wait for a response and continued, "You've been thinking about her, haven't you? She's advanced and has been looking for you. Are you ready to go with her?"
The boy's eyes changed slightly, as if a long-awaited wish was suddenly fulfilled, his face was full of surprise and confusion.
The man put away his gun and said, "If you decide, today is the day. If nothing unexpected happens, she will come over later. I don't need to teach you what to do. You are quite good at pretending to be pitiful."
The little boy nodded quickly, fearing that the man would take him away again, and expressed his willingness to be taken away by his mother. He knew how to act pitiful.
At this time, Shen Qian opened his eyes, glanced at the two people outside the door, but turned his head and fixed his gaze on a window in the opposite building.
There's someone there!
