Lin Zhenzhen looked out the window and saw a column of white smoke slowly rising from the ground.
It then exploded in the air, turning into a fiery red mushroom cloud.
Despite the commotion, Gu Zhongsheng lay motionless on the bed with his eyes closed.
His wound had not yet been stitched up, and dark blood flowed down the seam, looking extremely eerie and terrifying.
"It was you who did this."
Lin Zhenzhen aimed a punch at Zakir's temple and knocked him to the ground.
"You can't kill me." Zakir collapsed to the ground, like a dying fish.
He looked up, his eyes filled with fear mixed with smugness.
“If you kill me, you’ll never know what poison he was given.”
"You bastard!" Lin Zhenzhen kicked him in the head.
She controlled her strength well, rendering Zakir temporarily incapacitated without endangering his life.
After knocking Zakir unconscious, Lin Zhenzhen picked up the still slowly beating heart from his hand.
She didn't know what a normal heart was like, but she felt that the fleshy ball in front of her was far too small.
And why does it faintly glow with a green light?
[Ding! Congratulations, host! You have unlocked the bonus reward: You have obtained a true Gu Bosheng's heart. Completion status 1/2. After completing this small world mission, you will randomly receive a rare item!]
Damn it.
Upon hearing the system's words, Lin Zhenzhen's hand trembled, almost causing her to drop the half of her heart.
Who would have thought that the "heart" in this stupid mission could actually be interpreted from a physical perspective?
[As everyone says, the rewards in this little world are quite high... Let's see how many ways you can unlock these Easter eggs!]
Lin Zhenzhen doesn't have time to dwell on these things right now.
She emptied the white first-aid kit beside her and put her pounding little heart inside.
Turning back to the operating table, I saw a scalpel and a broken eyeglass arm.
A long, thin needle protruded from the inside of the eyeglass temple, with a trace of red blood still remaining on it.
It seems that this is how Zakir injected the toxin into Gu Zhongsheng.
He is the Zombie King, and his vitality is more tenacious than you imagine. Even the most advanced toxins developed by humanity can only temporarily incapacitate him.
The system stated the key point: "So don't worry about him anymore, host, you should run away first!"
We can't just let him lie here with his arms "open," can we?
Lin Zhenzhen frowned: "I really can't stand it."
She picked up a surgical needle and, relying on her clumsy needlework, haphazardly stitched up the tear in Gu Zhongsheng's chest.
"Hurry, hurry, they're attacking!" The system's voice trembled with anxiety.
The death rate in this small world is very high; dying means mission failure and you have to start over!
[Okay, stop rushing me!]
Lin Zhenzhen tied a knot in the sutures, completing the final finishing touches.
She took a step forward, but when she reached the door, she couldn't bring herself to do it and turned back.
[Host! Time to get out of here!]
[If you keep talking, I'll tear your mouth off!]
Lin Zhenzhen squatted down and turned the pistol over.
He aimed the hard gun handle at Zakir's head and slammed it down hard.
Zakir screamed and opened his eyes in terror.
"Uh, ah!"
Lin Zhenzhen shoved the gun hole directly into his mouth.
"I'm giving you one last chance. Tell me, where is the antidote?"
Zakir tasted the pungent gunpowder in his mouth.
His dark green eyes darted around 360 degrees before finally settling on Lin Zhenzhen's face.
"You... lower your head, and I'll... tell you."
Lin Zhenzhen sneered: "Do you really think I'm that stupid?"
With that, she pulled the trigger, saying, "If you're so disobedient, then die."
"etc."
A man's voice came from outside.
An invisible force surged through the air, raising Lin Zhenzhen's arm a few centimeters higher.
The bullet missed its mark and pierced a large hole in Zakir's cheek.
Gu Bosheng's figure appeared instantly from outside the house, arriving at Lin Zhenzhen's side at an extremely fast speed.
"Don't kill him yet." Gu Bosheng pressed down on the gun in her hand.
"Psychic abilities in the direction of intellectual evolution are a great asset to humanity."
"Moreover, there are still a few unfinished projects in Zaker's portfolio that require his continued attention."
Lin Zhenzhen stood up, raised her chin, and looked coldly at Zakir.
He was covering his bleeding wound with his hand, writhing and groaning in pain on the ground.
Where was that arrogant and haughty demeanor from just moments before?
Lin Zhenzhen put the gun away: "Okay, I'll listen to you."
Gu Bosheng glanced around the scene and immediately guessed the reason for all of this.
He bent down and took off Zakir's glasses. With his right hand, he closed his fingers, and the plastic frame instantly turned to powder.
What remained in his palm was a chip the size of a fingernail, glowing with blue light.
Gu Bosheng pondered for a moment and said, "So that's how they found us."
He then picked up the stitches on the temple of his glasses and brought them to his nose to smell them.
"This should contain a new type of sedative, which is potent but not life-threatening."
"Sheng is not seriously injured, but has temporarily lost the ability to move."
Gu Bosheng helped Gu Zhongsheng up from the operating table: "I'll see you off."
Lin Zhenzhen followed behind him: "And what about you?"
Gu Bosheng continued walking: "I have other things to take care of."
Lin Zhenzhen grabbed his arm: "You're going back with them, right?"
Gu Bosheng stopped in his tracks, turned his head, and his jewel-like pupils shone with golden light.
Lin Zhenzhen had never seen eyes so beautiful and complex.
It can possess both strong aggression and such pure naivety.
Lin Zhenzhen already knew his answer, but she still couldn't help but lower her head and repeat it softly.
"Can we not leave?"
Gu Bosheng lowered his eyes and said softly, "There are still many people who need me, I have to leave."
"I need you too." Lin Zhenzhen looked up at him, clenching her fists. "These people came with great force and have no good intentions, not to mention him..."
Lin Zhenzhen pointed at Zakir on the ground: "If you don't let me kill him, this scoundrel will definitely complain about you when he gets back."
Gu Bosheng replied, "Don't worry, I know how to handle him."
Seeing that Lin Zhenzhen's brows were still furrowed, he smiled, a faint smile appearing at the corners of his eyes.
"As of now, they haven't found anyone who can replace me."
"So trust me, everything will be alright."
