If we go in together, we'll be too big a target and the mortality rate will be too high. Why do we have to die together if we can just survive?
Seeing Lu Qingyan's obedient agreement, Pan Qingbai was also very happy. He knew that Lu Qingyan understood his thoughts and would make the right decision.
Since the zombies appeared, it has been pitch black after sunset. The moon has not been seen here for a long time, and the faint light of the stars is of no use at all.
But now, as they walk along this quiet path, they can actually see the lights in the small building not far away.
Lu Qingyan narrowed her eyes: "There is indeed something strange about this place."
Pan Qingbai walked ahead: "We'll find out who's playing tricks when we go over there."
Lu Qingyan followed behind him, not too close, not too far. The people behind her also kept a certain distance.
Upon approaching, Pan Qingbai said, "Xiao Ran, I'll go in and take a look." He was communicating with Lu Qingyan using his mental power. Since his lightning-type ability was upgraded to the seventh level, further advancement seemed extremely difficult, but he could now communicate with others using his mental power.
Lu Qingyan instinctively grabbed his hand, remained silent for a moment, and then said only three words: "Be careful."
Pan Qingbai smiled and went inside.
Lu Qingyan was outside the door, unable to hear or see anything. After three minutes, she followed them inside and said to the people behind her, "You all wait outside."
She rushed up, fearing something had happened to Pan Qingbai, and as she had expected, there was indeed a trap inside.
To Lu Qingyan, this arrangement looked a lot like a Taoist priest exorcising a ghost. The red silk threads were arranged into an array that Lu Qingyan had never seen before, trapping Pan Qingbai inside. He couldn't use his lightning-based supernatural abilities at all, and his original skills were also useless.
"Hehe—" A sound suddenly came from beside her ear. Without thinking, Lu Qingyan dodged and turned her head to look. Standing where she had been was a zombie that didn't look particularly ugly.
His appearance was already 40% indistinguishable from that of an ordinary person. Lu Qingyan guessed that this zombie was at least level five.
Green vines sprouted from the ground, forming a wall that kept the zombies out in the morning. Lu Qingyan looked at Pan Qingbai; although she appeared somewhat颓废 (颓废 is a difficult word to translate directly, but it implies a state of being listless, dispirited, or颓废), her eyes remained bright and resolute. His lightning-type abilities were either absorbed by the red lines or directly struck him; his outer clothes were now somewhat tattered, revealing his wheat-colored chest.
Lu Qingyan focused her mind, condensed her water-based superpower into ice, flew towards the red line and cut it off. Then the ice fell to the ground and melted into a puddle of water.
"Pan Qingbai!" Lu Qingyan called out his name, rushed over and hugged him tightly, her eyes brimming with tears: "Brother Pan, are you alright?"
"It's alright, don't cry." Pan Qingbai forced a smile. "Xiao Ran, I'm sorry, I've caused you trouble this time."
When he first came in, Pan Qingbai had a chance to escape, but unfortunately, due to carelessness, he was still trapped inside and ended up in this embarrassing state. Pan Qingbai was even a little embarrassed to see Lu Qingyan.
Lu Qingyan smiled and said, "Brother Pan, look, I really protected you this time."
Pan Qingbai: ...
"Yes, Xiao Ran is amazing." Even if you have to kneel down, you can still praise someone you've taken a liking to.
