Suddenly, there was a sound coming from the supermarket shelf, and Xie Shizhu looked towards the source of the sound.
Several zombies that looked somewhat like humans were holding a bunch of snacks. They squatted on the ground, opened the snack bags, and were stuffing food into their scarlet mouths with their skinny fingers.
Smelling the human scent, they looked up suddenly and saw an exceptionally beautiful man and woman. They dropped the bags in their hands, their cloudy eyes bursting with desire for delicious food.
The saliva dripped down, sticky and with a hint of blood.
Xie Shizhu was so frightened that he stepped back, reached out and pinched the corner of Jiang Yubai's shirt, muttering to himself: "How come they are just like humans?"
Jiang Yubai thought for a moment and said, "This is a mid-level zombie. I guess it won't encounter humans now, so it can only eat these."
Xie Shizhu's nervous chest began to heave again.
The system's nose was about to bleed: [Host, stop pretending, I can't stand this as a system anymore]
Xie Shizhu raised his eyebrows: "Am I very hot?"
The system nodded frantically: [Hmm]
As they were talking, several zombies drooled and rushed towards them. Jiang Yubai suddenly grabbed Xie Shizhu's wrist and pulled her out, but suddenly more than a dozen zombies rushed out of the door and blocked them inside, preventing them from getting out.
Xie Shizhu paused and stood there blankly, staring at a group of drooling zombies, his whole body seemed to be petrified.
Jiang Yubai squeezed her hand and said, "Sister, let's go upstairs to find Brother Lu. He has special abilities."
Xie Shizhu nodded, and just as she was about to turn around and leave, the zombies had already pounced towards her. When Xie Shizhu's body stiffened, Jiang Yubai used his arms to block the zombies' attack.
The zombie opened its mouth wide, revealing its fangs.
Jiang Yubai said: "Sister, you saved my life once, now I will save your life once too."
Seeing the zombie about to bite Jiang Yubai's slender arm with its fangs, Xie Shizhu's mind went blank and her teeth chattered. It seemed that because she was in a desperate situation, a sudden force filled her chest.
She stretched out her hand, and a few drops of water flowed from her fingertips, dripping onto the ground.
"Ahhh..." The zombies saw that she had been trying for a long time to get only a water ability, and it was like squeezing toothpaste, so they forgot about what to do and howled in mockery along with the zombies at the door.
The howling sounds came one after another.
The system laughed out loud: [Host, you were actually laughed at by this group of zombies.]
Xie Shizhu: “…”
Lu Chuan was searching for supplies on the second floor when he heard the sound of zombies on the first floor. He quickly dropped the food he had picked up and ran to the stairs. He went down the steps and Xia Jie followed behind him.
The two saw the intermediate zombies on the first floor were all stunned.
When Lu Chuan saw Xie Shizhu and Jiang Yubai surrounded by a group of zombies, his face turned pale. He was about to go down the stairs when Xia Jie behind him suddenly grabbed him.
Xia Jie shook her head, her eyes red and wet: "Don't go, your lightning ability can't fight these intermediate zombies. Let's take advantage of this time to escape from the second-floor window."
Lu Chuan hesitated for a moment, looked in the direction of Xie Shizhu and Jiang Yubai, and took a deep breath.
What Xia Jie said made sense. He might not be able to save these two people if he went over there.
In the end times, death is the most normal thing.
but……
When Lu Chuan was struggling over whether to save him or not, the zombie that was originally mocking and howling let out a cry. He was startled and quickly looked at Xie Shizhu's face.

After being laughed at by the zombie, Xie Shizhu felt a surge of strength in her body, driving her hand to touch the zombie that was about to bite Jiang Yubai. She didn't even use any strength on her right hand on the zombie's neck, and the zombie's neck was strangled by her hand.
Immediately afterwards, a zombie's head fell and rolled to her toes.
When the zombies saw this, they were stunned with fear, and Xie Shizhu was also stunned.
A group of zombies trembled in fear along with her.
Xie Shizhu opened his eyes wide, screamed and jumped into Jiang Yubai's arms.
The woman's soft chest pressed against his clothes, and he could feel her warm body temperature through the thin fabric.
Jiang Yubai was slightly startled and looked down at the woman trembling in his arms.
Zombies: “…” Damn, we should be the ones scared.
A weak woman actually triggered two superpowers in a short period of time.
While water powers are common, power-based ones are few and far between.
When the zombies didn't know whether to attack or retreat, the young man who was hugging the woman changed his timid eyes into a cold one, and glanced at them indifferently. The zombies were stunned, and suddenly they swarmed out the door like fleeing rats.
As soon as they left, everything around became quiet.
Xie Shizhu swallowed, looked at the zombie lying on the ground with its head separated from its body, and sobbed, "How terrible! I killed someone."
Jiang Yubai was also a little scared, his body trembling slightly, but he still comforted Xie Shizhu: "Sister, they are not human."
Xie Shizhu lifted her feet into the air, her whole body hanging on him. Feeling Jiang Yubai's stiff body, she quickly let go of her hands, jumped down, and kicked his head off the ground like a ball, then she calmed down.
"Well, you're right, they're not human," Xie Shizhu pretended to be calm, with her hands on her hips, and a free hand patted Jiang Yubai's head, "Don't worry, I'll protect you from now on."
A smile flashed in Jiang Yubai's eyes, and he nodded obediently: "Okay."

Lu Chuan witnessed everything, looked down at his hands, and frowned slightly.
