Is what you want my heart?
Gu Zhongsheng smiled maliciously and, without the slightest hesitation, plunged his hand into his chest cavity.
"No!"
Lin Zhenzhen exclaimed in surprise, but still couldn't stop the person in front of her from doing so.
He offered his heart to her.
"But I only have half a heart."
The voice of the person in front of me changed, it became...
The man slowly raised his head, and the burning gold in his pupils dissipated, turning into a deep black.
"But this is all I have."
Gu Bosheng!
Lin Zhenzhen suddenly sat up straight.
Countless dark green tree trunks rushed past the car window, like twisted and terrifying ghosts.
It was supposed to be a sunny afternoon, but not a single ray of sunlight could be seen.
"Karl, you're sweating a lot on your forehead. Did you have a nightmare?" Medusa said, reaching out to touch her face.
Lin Zhenzhen avoided her hand and hastily wiped it with her sleeve: "It's nothing."
Looking at the map in his hand, Ji Xueyi said to Gu Zhongsheng in the passenger seat, "We're about to reach the central area of the West Derata Forest. Should we continue driving?"
"Start." Gu Zhongsheng didn't even turn his head. "Stop when I say stop."
The system's voice echoed in Lin Zhenzhen's mind.
[Whew! The healing ability has finally been completed! You now officially possess the strength of a fifth-tier healing ability user.]
Lin Zhenzhen looked at her hands, and the scene from her dream flashed before her eyes.
A strange idea popped into my head.
What are the limits of healing abilities? If someone has no heart, can they still be brought back to life?
"Stop the car." Gu Zhongsheng suddenly spoke up. "You guys wait for me here."
He opened the car door with lightning speed.
After leaping onto a tree trunk, he disappeared into the jungle.
The further you go into the heart of the West Der Rata Forest, the denser the trees become, their layered canopies almost completely blocking out the sky.
"Damn, this place is so creepy." He Dali rubbed the goosebumps on his arms vigorously. "This is the first time I've ever been inside something like this."
He looked around: "It's broad daylight, there shouldn't be any zombies, right?"
Medusa pouted and said, "That's not necessarily true. Look up, can any sunlight even get through? It's almost as dark as night here."
As soon as she finished speaking, Ji Xueyi's expression changed.
He had just released his spiritual energy and sensed that some creatures were approaching them.
"The zombies are coming, prepare for battle."
He Dali's eyes widened: "Damn it, what kind of jinx are you?!"
Ji Xueyi closed his eyes, his brows twitching slightly: "There aren't many of them, and they move slowly, so they probably aren't high-level zombies."
The three of them lined up in a triangular formation with perfect understanding.
Sure enough, a few scattered zombies appeared ahead a short while later.
He Dali picked up a two-meter-long heavy cannon, a heavy weapon specifically designed to deal with zombies, and its usage was very simple and brutal.
With just one shot, you can blow off the heads of four or five zombies.
However, its limitations are also obvious, because only the muscles of a strength-type mutant who have been enhanced can withstand its terrifying recoil.
Medusa removed the scimitar from her back; its blade was covered with a special coating that would ignite upon contact with fire.
She is a dual-elemental ability user of wind and fire, and can control the trajectory of the thrown knife by manipulating the airflow.
The moment she threw the scimitar, the blade was enveloped in a layer of orange flames.
The scimitar seemed to have eyes; no matter how the zombies dodged, it could accurately slice through their necks.
Ji Xueyi sat behind the two, seemingly lost in thought, but was actually using his psychic ability to "suggest" things to make the other zombies around them give up their attack.
Lin Zhenzhen, on the other hand, was thrown into the car by He Dali and watched the entire battle with a very relaxed attitude.
Since none of the three of them were injured, they didn't need her at all.
Lin Zhenzhen didn't even have a chance to try out her newly acquired healing ability.
After a successful engagement, He Dali put down the still-smoking heavy cannon and laughed twice: "It seems that the zombies in the West Derata Forest have also regressed."
"These are just low-level zombies without consciousness; they can't think or cooperate."
Ji Xueyi climbed into the car: "I'm afraid the truly terrifying character is still watching us from the shadows, they just haven't shown themselves yet."
Lin Zhenzhen looked out the window and suddenly said, "He's here."
"What?"
Medusa looked nervously in the direction she was looking and saw Gu Zhongsheng's figure.
"Hey, why omit the name when you reply? Just say Sheng is back."
Gu Zhongsheng tapped on the car window with his finger: "Get out of the car, Gu Bosheng and his group will be here soon."
Lin Zhenzhen obediently got out of the car with the others.
Gu Zhongsheng pointed to a towering tree beside him and looked at He Dali: "Can such a tree be uprooted?"
"It should be possible."
“I don’t want to hear ‘should’.” Gu Zhongsheng’s tone was icy. “When the team escorting Gu Bosheng arrives, you will need to force them to stop.”
He Dali gritted his teeth: "No problem."
Gu Zhongsheng turned to Medusa and asked, "If you were to transform completely into the form of wind, how long could you maintain that form?"
Medusa thought for a moment: "I haven't tried the full elemental form before, but I should be able to last for a minute."
“That’s enough.” Gu Zhongsheng glanced at his watch. “I need you to sneak into the cabin through the gap in your full elemental form and open the hatch.”
"OK."
Gu Zhongsheng finally looked at Ji Xueyi: "After the hatch opens, go to the control room and subdue them. Don't make any rash moves. Five minutes later, the people inside will cut off the surveillance."
Lin Zhenzhen thought to herself: In this way, everyone's abilities can be used perfectly. It seems that Gu Zhongsheng already has a detailed plan in mind.
"To emphasize, the monitoring system inside the mobile shelter is connected to the security headquarters, so we only have thirty minutes. After those thirty minutes, support from the nearby war zone will arrive."
Ji Xueyi said worriedly, "This places too much demand on each of our abilities. What if something goes wrong in any part of the process?"
Gu Zhongsheng frowned, as if he simply couldn't understand how such a simple thing could go wrong.
"If someone can't do it, I'll fill in."
The three clicked their tongues in astonishment. Was this the arrogance of someone with all-attribute superpowers?
"And what about me?" Lin Zhenzhen asked. "Where should I stay?"
Gu Zhongsheng looked at her, his tone strangely indescribable: "Come in with me to save people."
