The beginning of the end
Ying Er and Ying San looked at everything around them. Although there was no expression on their faces, they were frightened in their hearts.
"Master." Shadow Two held a sharp sword and moved towards the master with Shadow Three, staring vigilantly at the zombies moving towards them.
"The fatal point is the head, don't let them scratch you."
"Yes." Ying Er and Ying San heard their master's words, responded and began to clean up the zombies around them.
As for why the master knew all this so well, they never thought about it.
The Shadow Guard only needs to follow the orders of its master.
Cheng Yan stood aside and looked around. This world had appeared almost exclusively in his dreams for a year, so he had a certain understanding of it.
The most important thing now is to figure out what year it is and where Lin Mo is now.
Are you...still alive?
Cheng Yan turned his body to the side, drew his sword and killed the slow-moving zombie with one strike.
I need to find someone to ask about the current situation.
But first we have to find some food. In this world, people will do anything for food.
Cheng Yan called Ying Er and Ying San back and took them to a small supermarket not far away.
Cheng Yan and the other two were lucky enough to find themselves on a shopping street with shops or supermarkets on both sides selling clothes, jewelry, snacks and pastries.
You can see everything inside through the glass window, but it seems someone has been here before, as everything is in a mess, especially the food, which has been completely taken away.
Cheng Yan didn't pick and choose. He went in and collected the useful things, then continued to the next house.
Shadow Two and Shadow Three walked in front and behind Cheng Yan, one of them cleared the way to deal with the zombies wandering in the store, and the other one finished the way and guarded the door.
However, after seeing the owner wave his sleeves and all the things on the shelf disappeared, Ying Er and Ying San were suddenly stunned.
However, that was only a moment, and the two of them quickly suppressed their fluctuating emotions.
Shadow Three: Second brother, could it be that the master is... an immortal who has descended to earth?
Shadow 2: No, the master is a dragon.
Shadow Three: ...Ah?
Cheng Yan didn't notice that his two shadow guards were talking about him with their eyes. He put away his things and left.
Shadow 2 and Shadow 3, who were standing by, immediately ended the eye contact and followed their master.
There are too few useful things here, but Cheng Yan doesn't have much time to look for supplies now, he needs to find Lin Mo as soon as possible.
He couldn't be sure whether Lin Mo's current situation was safe or dangerous.
As if he had noticed something, Cheng Yan stopped and raised his hand to ask the shadow guard behind him to stop.
Shadow 2 and Shadow 3 stood still, concentrating their attention and listening carefully to the movements around them. People with inner strength have sharp senses, and ordinary shadow guards in the palace can sense the situation within a kilometer around them.
"Master..." Ying Er seemed to have heard something and opened his mouth to report.
"Let's go and take a look." Cheng Yan said.
"Yes, master." Ying Er said respectfully, then left in the direction where he heard the noise.
With a few leaps, the figure of the black-clad shadow guard disappeared from their sight.
Ying San followed his master, walked over slowly, and dealt with the zombies that came forward.
Several people who had been hiding in the dark and dared not come out witnessed the three people in ancient costumes neatly disposing of the zombies.
I originally wanted to follow them and pick up the spoils, but the moment the man in black looked over, everyone seemed to be frozen in place, not daring to move.
"Boss, they're going far away, should we follow them?" One of the younger brothers couldn't help but speak up when he saw the two men getting farther and farther away from them.
They went out to look for food and originally planned to avoid the zombies. After all, there were too many zombies on this street, and among them, only the boss had super powers.
However, he unexpectedly met three young men in ancient costumes who skillfully dealt with the zombies wandering the streets.
The neat movements and sharp eyes clearly show that he is a master.
Maybe it's some hidden ancient martial arts family in the novel, look at the long hair, the ancient costume, and the sharp sword.
"What are you following? Let's go find more food while there are few zombies." The yellow-haired man called Boss patted his head.
They are so tactless, can they afford to offend those three people?
When Cheng Yan and Ying San arrived, Ying Er had already resolved the matter, and there was a man standing next to him.
Cheng Yan took a quick look around and saw a large number of zombies lying there. The four fallen men were wearing the same clothes as the man standing next to Ying Er.
Those five people were obviously companions, but now there is only one left, and he seems to be injured.
Cheng Yan glanced at the man's bleeding left arm.
When Shadow Two saw his master, he went back and stood behind his master with Shadow Three.
The man saw the actions of his savior, then looked at the three of them and knew who had the final say.
"My name is Wei Yuan. Thank you for your companion's help just now..."
"You're scratched." Cheng Yan glanced at his arm which had stopped bleeding and spoke.
"This... I'm a superpower, I won't turn into a zombie if I get hurt." Wei Yuan understood what he meant and quickly explained.
After hearing what Wei Yuan said, Ying Er and Ying San turned their heads to look at each other. If you get caught, you will turn into those living dead?
"How long is it until the end of the world?" Cheng Yan asked.
He had indeed noticed someone following them before, but there were too many of them and their intentions were not good, so Cheng Yan was too lazy to ask them.
Cheng Yan had a good impression of this man. His eyes were upright and sharp, and his bloodiness was well hidden. Cheng Yan could tell at a glance that he had been on the battlefield and killed people.
This man is a soldier.
"It's been two weeks since the end of the world." Wei Yuan took a look at their clothes and understood clearly.
This person with long hair and ancient costume, if he is not an actor or a cosplayer, then he should be from an ancient martial arts family.
However, generally speaking, members of those families have already gone to the capital, so why are there still some of them in the south?
We don’t know how long the apocalypse has begun. Could it have come out from the deep mountains and forests?
Two weeks?!
Not two months, not two years!
There's still time. Momo should still be trapped in school.
Cheng Yan finally breathed a sigh of relief, and his tense nerves relaxed a little.
Everything hasn't started yet. With him here this time, Momo will never be hurt by anyone again.
"Where is Puji University?" Cheng Yan asked, recalling the beginning of the dream from his memory.
"Purayoshi University? It's on our way. I'll take you there." Wei Yuan glanced at him, unable to understand why they were going there. But then he thought, maybe they were going there to look for someone like he was?
"Hmm?" Cheng Yan glanced at him.
When Wei Yuanchu saw that calm gaze, he felt a chill down his spine for no reason.
"My young master is also studying there." Wei Yuan explained.
Originally there were five of them, all veterans.
On the first day of the apocalypse, the second young master asked them to come to Y City to find the young master.
The journey that originally took only two days before the end of the world has now been stretched to two weeks.
As they didn't want to waste time, they didn't stop even when they met someone asking for help. But when they reached their destination and relaxed a little, they capsized in a ditch.
Wei Yuan looked at his four companions whose heads and bodies were separated, and a flash of pain and regret flashed across his eyes. At this moment, he also felt a little scared.
If these three people hadn't saved him, he would have died looking for the young master.
"Lead the way." Cheng Yan was brief and to the point. It would be best if someone led the way.
Puji University is quite a distance away from their current location. If they want to get there alone, it will take at least half a day.
However, with Shadow Two and Shadow Three clearing the way all the way, Cheng Yan and Wei Yuan didn't have to take any action at all.
Wei Yuan watched them take care of the zombies around them one after another, then looked at Cheng Yan who was holding the sword but had not made a move.
Wei Yuan was in a trance for a moment. Is this the end of the world, purgatory? No, for them, it should be just strolling in the back garden.
However, what stunned Wei Yuan was the way the two men in black ancient costumes addressed Cheng Yan.
Owner?
Wei Yuan was paying attention to the situation around him, his eyes occasionally drifting to Cheng Yan.
Could this person be the patriarch or deputy patriarch of their family?
Wei Yuan's father is the steward of the young master's family. The Lin family is also one of the aristocratic families, so Wei Yuan knows something about this aspect.
But he had never encountered such a strict hierarchy.
It's the 21st century now, and are there still people calling someone "master"?
After receiving Cheng Yan's gaze, Wei Yuan didn't dare to look at him any longer. He went to the front and solved the problem of the zombies blocking the way with Ying Er.
"Let's find a car to go there. It's a waste of time to walk like this." After dealing with a wave of zombies, Wei Yuan said while panting.
His supernatural power had been used up long before, and he had been walking for two consecutive days before that. If he continued walking, Wei Yuan was worried that he would not be able to hold on.
After getting a positive answer, Wei Yuan found a sturdy car.
As soon as Cheng Yan and the other two entered the car, they felt uncomfortable in this enclosed space; it was too depressing.
Ying Er and Ying San sat in the back seat, looking around quietly with some curiosity in their eyes.
Although the air in this iron box smells a bit bad, it is quite comfortable to sit in. Although the driving speed is not as fast as their shadow guards, it is much faster than the previous snail-like crawling speed.
Seeing that the master sitting in front of them was as still and steady as a clock, Ying Er and Ying San also retracted their gaze, sat down and stopped looking around.
Wei Yuan glanced at the two people sitting in the back through the rearview mirror, then glanced at Cheng Yan in the passenger seat with his peripheral vision, without saying a word.
The car was already going at its maximum speed, and from time to time it had to dodge the zombies piled up in front of it. But the three of them were still sitting there without moving, as expected of martial artists, their riding was really stable.
With three highly skilled fighters and a guard who knew the way, the time they encountered obstacles along the way was greatly reduced.
Wei Yuan saw several people being besieged by zombies not far ahead, and wanted to go around them like he did before, but when he saw a familiar figure, he subconsciously stepped on the brakes.
There was a hissing sound of brakes, and the other three people in the car leaned forward.
Cheng Yan frowned slightly, feeling a little unhappy, "What's wrong?"
"Mr. Cheng, there's an acquaintance of mine in front, I..." Wei Yuan looked a little anxious.
"Hurry up, Ying Er, go over and help."
"Yes, Master."
Cheng Yan leaned back and closed his eyes. He didn't really want to get involved in these matters. He just did it for the sake of this man leading the way for him.
"Thank you, Mr. Cheng."
After Wei Yuan thanked Cheng Yan, he got out of the car and went over with Ying Er to join them.
…
As these college students did not exercise often, even though these dozen people had come out several times to look for food, the number of zombies this time was beyond their expectations.
"Fuck! It must be Shang Chen and his bunch of bastards who did this!" A gym student holding a baseball bat hit the zombie on the head and cursed loudly.
"Mingzi, be careful and don't get scratched by the zombies." Rong Yuqi, who was protected behind him, reminded with a pale face.
"I won't be in any trouble even if you get scratched, just shut up!" Qi Ming swung the baseball bat in his hand and shot the zombie in the head again.
"I have special powers, so it's okay if I get caught..." Rong Yuqi covered his bleeding arm with one hand.
"It's so great to have superpowers... Fuck! You bastards..." Qi Ming turned sideways and pulled Rong Yuqi into his arms, smashing away the zombies around them that were about to touch them.
"Mingzi, what will happen to Amo if we die?" Rong Yuqi glanced at the zombies that surrounded them in circles, feeling a little hopeless.
He and Qi Ming can fight and have superpowers, but Lin Mo is just an ordinary person who can't lift anything with his shoulders or hands, and can't run fast, and now he is still feverish.
Rong Yuqi was a little worried. After they died, how would A-mo survive in this apocalypse?
If it hadn't been for this accident, they might have been able to wait until Brother Lin and his eldest brother sent someone to pick them up.
“…What can we do? Just like us, they will be betrayed by scum and die at the hands of zombies one day.” Qi Ming glared fiercely at the group of people who had escaped from danger.
If I survive this disaster, I will definitely kill them when I return!
Qi Ming kicked the zombie that touched Rong Yuqi hard, and knocked over several zombies behind it in succession.
Apart from Rong Yuqi, Master Qi has never been plotted against by anyone.
