"Auntie Xiaonuan, are we almost there?"
On the dilapidated highway, Xia Xiaonuan sped forward on her motorcycle. There were many obstacles on the road, but she didn't even glance at them and drove over them directly.
The motorcycle rolled over obstacles along the way, occasionally veering off course, sometimes even losing its balance and flying off.
Without exception, thanks to Xia Xiaonuan's superb driving skills, the motorcycles always eventually returned to the correct position.
However, the little girl behind her was not having an easy time.
"Or...you could slow down a bit, I...I can't take it anymore!" The wind was so strong that 11-year-old Zhang Xiaonian could barely speak.
Meanwhile, the motorcycle, swaying left and right and constantly changing position, made her stomach churn. Xia Xiaonuan hadn't even put a helmet on her, and her chubby little face was being blown out of shape.
"We're almost there, just hang in there a little longer!"
Xia Xiaonuan said something without turning her head, her voice sounding somewhat muffled coming from inside her helmet.
Zhang Xiaonian could barely hear anything amidst the howling wind.
She could only curse inwardly, "What sins have I committed to deserve this? Couldn't you just leave me alone this once?"
This wasn't the first time Xia Xiaonuan had contacted her.
She also had a very clear understanding of Xia Xiaonuan's story.
Xia Xiaonuan had a boyfriend, but broke up with him under pressure from her mother. However, Xia Xiaonuan did not give up, so she took a job to earn some quick money in another city, hoping to use the money as a dowry for her boyfriend and shut her mother up.
But not long after she left for another city, the apocalypse struck. She rushed to Chengdu as fast as she could, only to find that her boyfriend had turned into a zombie when she arrived at his place.
She painfully killed her zombie boyfriend, buried him, and then joined Hope City, becoming the city lord's trusted subordinate.
This was her first time experiencing the apocalypse.
On several subsequent occasions, when she awakened her memories, she was always in another city. Although she tried desperately to get to Chengdu, she was always too late.
Later, she met Zhang Xiaonian. It was after the New Era. After Zhang Xiaonian used the Awakening Gem, he actually awakened the ability to resurrect the dead.
Of course, resurrecting the dead is too incredible, and Zhang Xiaonian cannot directly resurrect Xia Xiaonuan's boyfriend because there are many prerequisites that cannot be met.
But Xia Xiaonuan did not give up. She believed that if she could find the golden gem and upgrade Zhang Xiaonian's extraordinary template, then Zhang Xiaonian would definitely be able to revive her boyfriend.
So, after Xia Xiaonuan regained her memories, the first thing she did was go to her boyfriend's place, kill him who had turned into a zombie, and then immediately go to find Zhang Xiaonian.
She's done this countless times. Although she's never managed to revive her boyfriend, she still does it every time she awakens her memories.
Zhang Xiaonian admired her devotion, but...
"I'm just an 11-year-old child, why do I have to go through life and death with you in every lifetime!"
She felt extremely wronged.
But on the surface, she had to act like a well-behaved baby in front of Xia Xiaonuan.
This woman is terrifying.
That man clearly said everything, but this woman killed him without any mercy!
Zhang Xiaonian dared not say anything more, burying his head in Xia Xiaonuan's back to avoid the howling wind.
As Xia Xiaonuan watched the gates of Hope City draw ever closer, her heart began to race with tension.
"Zhang Lin..."
Is it really you?
Her ex-boyfriend's name was Zhang Lin.
The problem is that in her previous lives, when she came to Zhang Lin's apartment, Zhang Lin had already turned into a zombie, and there were also two female corpses inside that had been completely eaten.
She speculated that Zhang Lin must have gone downstairs to find food, was accidentally injured by a zombie, and after returning home, turned into a zombie and ate his two roommates.
According to her awakened memories, this has been the case in every lifetime.
However, this time there was an unexpected turn of events.
When Xia Xiaonuan arrived at Zhang Lin's apartment, she found it completely empty, and even his two female roommates were nowhere to be seen.
She searched the entire building but couldn't find any trace of Zhang Lin.
Xia Xiaonuan could only assume that Zhang Lin was dead.
So, following her original plan, she first went to rescue Zhang Xiaonian, whose parents had both turned into zombies.
To prepare for Zhang Lin's future revival.
After finding Zhang Xiaonian, she took him towards Hope City. However, because she had wasted too much time looking for Zhang Lin at his residence, the zombie army had already begun to assemble when she was almost at Hope City.
Although Xia Xiaonuan was very strong, she was no match for the zombie army, so she had no choice but to hide in a safe place with Zhang Xiaonian.
After the zombie horde dispersed, she prepared to set off again, only to encounter a petty thief who wanted to steal her car.
Coincidentally, the thief was from Hope City, so she interrogated him to obtain information about Hope City.
Then I heard Zhang Lin's name and learned about his feat of fighting the Thousand-Legged Corpse alone.
When she first heard Zhang Lin's name, she was very excited. In this life, her boyfriend had actually survived!
However, after hearing that Zhang Lin had single-handedly defeated and killed the Thousand-Legged Corpse, she was confused.
"My useless boyfriend actually managed to defeat a centipede in a one-on-one fight?"
"Could it be... someone with the same name as my boyfriend?"
Xia Xiaonuan couldn't help but feel conflicted.
She hoped her boyfriend wasn't dead, but... killing the centipede alone... would be very difficult for her.
As for Zhang Lin... if he had that ability, would he have turned into a zombie in his previous lives?
It's not that Xia Xiaonuan looks down on her boyfriend.
She knew her boyfriend well; he was an orphan with no relatives, the kind of person who had no one to rely on when he was young, and who, as an adult, was able to support himself without worrying about the rest of the family.
This resulted in Zhang Lin having no desire to strive and just drifting through each day, with no attachment to the world.
It was only after he got together with me that he worked hard for a period of time.
However, his mother looked down on him because he was an orphan. She immediately demanded an exorbitant dowry, along with a house in the city center and a luxury car worth millions, which scared Zhang Lin away, causing him to return to his previous state of just getting by.
It was precisely because of her mother that Xia Xiaonuan felt guilty towards Zhang Lin. Therefore, she wanted to earn some money herself, give it to Zhang Lin, and have him pass it on to her mother as her betrothal gift.
How can someone who has been drifting through life for over twenty years suddenly grow to the point of single-handedly killing a centipede after the apocalypse?
Xia Xiaonuan didn't quite believe it.
But she also secretly hoped that Zhang Lin, who had single-handedly killed the centipede, was indeed her boyfriend.
Finally, the motorcycle arrived at the gate of Hope City.
Many of the city lord's men were busy repairing the gates, which had been knocked down by the zombie army.
The motorcycle sped past the crowd and headed straight for the city lord's mansion.
The people working at the entrance only felt a dark shadow flash before their eyes, and they only realized what had happened when the sound of the motorcycle's exhaust gradually disappeared.
"The First Captain is back!"
