Lin Yu organized his thoughts, "About 100 kilometers away from us, in the Xunshan Mansion villa area, Ling Xiao was with a group of teenagers. Although his body was wrapped in bandages, it was fake. I saw him secretly teleport out to retrieve a few zombie crystals and then teleport back to pretend to be injured."
"He spotted Black Hawk, and doing this is a way of letting us know he's alright. Judging from the direction he's heading, he should be on his way back."
Gu Lingchuan finally relaxed. "You've worked hard these past few days."
Lin Yu laughed, "You're being too polite by talking to me like that."
Gu Lingchuan smiled and said, "I'll take you home first, so you can rest for a few days."
Lin Yu nodded, and he could finally get some sleep. Putting aside the fact that Gu Lingxiao was their main source of strength, he had saved them several times in the past two months, and he had also helped capture various evolved creatures.
After safely sending Lin Yu back, Gu Lingchuan came to the military survivor base. Although he didn't use the satellite perspective, he still planned to come and see if there was anything he could do to help.
Secondly, we need to see if the military has taken any excessive actions, such as throwing a mushroom bomb at them.
With the suppression of firepower, the front line was stabilized, and any remaining survivors were hunted down one by one.
"I just don't know how long this will last, and what about the casualty reports during this period?" Hua Zhiyuan said, looking at the handwritten data in front of him.
"Five ordinary soldiers were lost, and six evolved humans were wounded. In addition, Gu Lingchuan came here briefly before going to the front line. With his addition, the battle line where the aliens broke through the most has been stopped."
Hua Zhiyuan nodded. "As long as his brother isn't involved, he's quite capable in his work."
Gu Lingxiao had been on his way for over a day, and the bandage on his chest was still on. He was leading ten people toward the military survivor base at an extremely slow pace, which was really too slow for Gu Lingxiao.
But he didn't urge them. He followed at the back. There weren't many zombies on the Lijiang side, but Tang Yun alone was still a bit of a stretch.
But for now, Tang Yun can still hold on by herself.
However, everyone was quite frightened, and several people advised Tang Yun to go back.
"Aren't you a member of the military? Why didn't you take action?" As a result, some people began to criticize Gu Lingxiao.
"Ha, when did I ever say I was a member of the military?"
Everyone was stunned. Except for Xiao Ran, everyone else felt that Gu Lingxiao's silence at the time meant he agreed.
"Then why didn't you say so back then? Besides, you've become an evolved being, shouldn't you be protecting us ordinary people?"
"Why should I?" Gu Lingxiao retorted.
"Because you're stronger than us, the strong should protect the weak."
"Well said, yes, I'm better than you." Gu Lingxiao's smile was sinister, his indifference in his eyes as if he regarded them as dead. A sense of fear arose spontaneously, and the people who had just been speaking immediately shut up.
"What do you mean?" Tang Yun said angrily, feeling deceived.
"I'm not actually a member of the military, and I only got the clothes from them, but don't worry, I mean what I say. If I say I'll get you safely to the military survivor base, I will." Of course, the premise is that no monsters that can kill me appear, otherwise I'll die and there'll be no way to get her safely there.
Looking at Gu Lingxiao's calm expression, Tang Yun didn't know what to feel. She even had the idea of going to the military survivor base first and then bringing people back to rescue them.
But in the end, her classmates absolutely refused to agree. They said it was dangerous for Tang Yun to go alone, but in reality, they were afraid that Tang Yun would abandon them.
Xiao Ran kept her head down as she walked, partly because she wouldn't speak up for either side, and partly because she had no strength left to do anything except walk.
For the next day, Gu Lingxiao was like a ghost until he crossed the Lijiang Bridge and found an empty room to rest. Surprisingly, no one had died.
This was thanks in no small part to Tang Yun's selfless protection of the others, and of course, Gu Lingxiao also took action, using dark elements to secretly slow down the enemies.
Otherwise, Tang Yun would be seriously injured even if she didn't die.
No one noticed when she made the move; no, Xiao Ran must have noticed.
Because she walked more and more easily, as if she were being dragged along by her own shadow, and because she was always in the second to last position, she could always see Tang Yun in front of her. Whenever Tang Yun encountered danger, she could always vaguely see that Tang Yun's shadow extended or that the monster's shadow moved.
But upon closer inspection, she realized there was nothing wrong with it, as if she were seeing things. Everyone else was too scared to notice, and she herself only had the mind to observe after she could walk without difficulty.
Xiao Ran didn't know what Gu Lingxiao was planning, but she had already tried everything, and now she could only leave it to fate.
I just hope that Gu Lingxiao is a man of his word and that what he said before was true.
There was practically no light in the darkness. Since the apocalypse began, the city seemed to have lost its life. Gu Lingxiao came outside to quietly observe the struggle under the cover of darkness.
In the battle between the two evolved beings, the victor ultimately turned his gaze to Gu Lingxiao.
The green eyes seemed to burn with intense killing intent, but the next moment darkness enveloped them, and they vanished without a sound, without making a fuss.
The dark elemental power is greatly enhanced at night, several times stronger than during the day. At least a third-stage evolved creature cannot withstand the dark elemental power for even a minute at night.
"What's wrong"
The fight between the two evolved creatures had caused quite a commotion, and several buildings along the main road collapsed. At first, no one dared to come out to check. It wasn't until it had been quiet for a while that Tang Yun, Xiao Ran, and two other boys came out.
"It's nothing, just a mouse."
No one believed Gu Lingxiao's words. What kind of rat could make such a commotion?
But Gu Lingxiao wasn't lying to them; it really was a rat, just a bit big.
"Go back and rest. Let's hurry tomorrow. At this pace, it will take at least ten days, which is too slow."
After everyone else left, Tang Yun asked, "Why didn't you help them?"
Although Gu Lingxiao didn't display any particularly flashy moves or superpowers, he easily subdued a mutated zombie that had attacked him earlier, casually turning its head away.
Moreover, there was no tension in this dangerous environment, just like before the apocalypse.
Gu Lingxiao originally only planned to make a move when Tang Yun was in the most danger, so that she could at least gain some experience, but he got annoyed by what those people said.
He wasn't good at arguing with others, so he simply tortured and killed a mutated zombie to make an example of it.
Since then, no one has spoken ill of him to his face.
"They're just using you, why bother thinking so much about them?"
“They just want to survive, and I just happen to have the ability to do so,” Tang Yun retorted.
"Ha, they want to survive? At least they should have the same attitude as Xiao Ran. They're stupid; they can't even see the situation after three months."
