Chapter 165 The Original Female Lead Who Was Used as Cannon Fodder 15
Upon arriving at the first floor, the main entrance was completely reinforced and locked. The black aura gathered in one place, and wherever it passed, objects quickly dissolved, and soon an opening large enough for one person to pass through appeared.
The zombies immediately surrounded him, but Lin Wuque was faster. He raised his hand and waved it, and the black ash instantly transformed into countless tiny arrows, which accurately pierced the heads of the surrounding zombies.
There was no splattering of rotting flesh and brains as expected; the head was instantly dissolved the moment it came into contact with the arrow.
Then, a white crystal the size of a grain of rice fell to the ground.
The headless zombie instantly lost its vitality and fell straight down.
Through the crack, Ruan Yunzhen looked at the rotting zombies, her stomach clenched, and she subconsciously took a half step back.
It wasn't out of fear, but because the stench of decay and mold assaulted my nostrils, and even my tongue tasted bitter.
Although Lin Wuque had his back to her, he keenly noticed this.
A wisp of white smoke drifted out at just the right moment, covering her mouth and nose, filtering out all the stench, and the air became fresh again.
He himself remained unfazed and did not use the white bark to filter the substance, as if his sense of smell had failed him.
Ruan Yunzhen took a deep breath, feeling as if she had come back to life.
"Yunzhen, it's too dirty outside, why don't we go back?"
Lin Wuque turned around, his face showing anticipation.
Behind him, a hail of arrows killed countless zombies that surrounded him, and the ground was soon covered with headless corpses.
These corpses were covered in dried blood and filth, their bodies riddled with putrid, blackened wounds, some even disemboweled, their black and green intestines scattered everywhere.
This scene is disgusting and terrifying just to look at.
But Ruan Yunzhen will not back down because of this.
She shook her head firmly: "Keep going."
Lin Wuque pouted in disappointment: "Fine, now you want me to hold you?"
This time, Ruan Yunzhen did not argue and nodded in agreement.
The ground was covered with zombies, corpses piled on top of each other, leaving no place to step. She didn't want to walk over these blackened, smelly corpses.
Lin Wuque's large, well-defined hands gripped Ruan Yunzhen's slender waist, and with a gentle lift, he scooped her up in his arms.
Ruan Yunzhen leaned against his chest and then realized that beneath Lin Wuque's exquisite and handsome appearance lay astonishing strength. She could feel the firm muscle lines of his chest even through his shirt, and his arms were also very strong and steady without the slightest tremor.
Lin Wuque's heart skipped a beat, a pleasant smile appeared on his lips, and pure joy shone in his eyes.
He lowered his head and whispered in her ear, his warm breath brushing against her earlobe, "Are you satisfied, Master?"
The final syllable rises like a small hook, tender and ambiguous.
Ruan Yunzhen, having seen it all, didn't even flinch.
"Let's go quickly."
She didn't want to stay among the rotting corpses any longer!
"Yes, my master."
Lin Wuque chuckled softly, his arm steadily supporting Ruan Yunzhen's knees, as darkness spread out beneath their feet, creating a gloomy path.
The rotting corpses dissolved the moment they touched the black mist, turning into black ash that drifted away with the wind.
The darkness enveloped everything, isolating it from all of this.
Li Suqin then quietly took out a face mask.
"Hurry up."
Lin Wuque lightly touched the ground with his toes and leaped out of the area surrounded by corpses in a few bounds.
Black shrouds itself on both sides, weaving a dense net that shreds any zombies that pass by.
As for the crystal core that fell to the ground, Lin Wuque did not pick it up; he did not take the meager energy of the first-level crystal core seriously.
Li Suqin was very tempted, but she didn't dare to waste time picking it up.
She took off running and chased after him with all her might, her eyes fixed on the figure ahead, afraid that she would lose him if she wasn't careful.
Lin Wuque charged out of the horde of corpses and landed precisely in front of a modified off-road vehicle.
The car body was a little dirty, but it was intact, with not even a few dents.
This is the vehicle he usually uses when he goes out.
Lin Wuque didn't let Ruan Yunzhen get off the ground. He freed one hand, opened the passenger door, put her in, and then sat in the driver's seat himself. He then carefully fastened Ruan Yunzhen's seatbelt.
He then started the vehicle and prepared to drive away without waiting for Li Suqin at all.
Ruan Yunzhen didn't say much. She had already been given a chance to live; it was up to her whether she could seize it.
Li Suqin ran for her life, her lungs burning with pain. The zombie's sharp fingertips grazed her back several times, tearing her coat in several places, but she had no time to care about anything else, her eyes only on the approaching SUV.
As the car was about to leave, she desperately lunged at the car door and used her last bit of strength to roll into the car.
"Bang!"
The dull thud of the car door closing and the roar of the engine exploded simultaneously, and the SUV shot off like an arrow.
The tires rolled rapidly along the blood-stained asphalt road, speeding towards the outskirts of the city.
This was a road that Lin Wuque frequently traveled, and it had been cleared in advance, so there were not many obstacles on the road, and he traveled smoothly.
Outside the car window, the post-apocalyptic cityscape rushed past.
The once bustling streets are now filled with an atmosphere of death and decay. The mottled billboards hang askew in the air, still bearing the "Zombie Prevention Notice" issued by the government a year ago.
Along the roadsides, abandoned vehicles and the remains of zombies were everywhere, emitting a nauseating stench.
Several wandering zombies were attracted by the engine sound and chased after it in vain, dragging their mutilated limbs, before being left behind as blurry black dots.
Lin Wuque held the steering wheel with one hand, while his other hand was itching to reach out and take Ruan Yunzhen's hand, but she slapped it away without any politeness.
Lin Wuque's upturned lips instantly straightened, but a dark undercurrent surged in his eyes.
"Ugh... I got rejected again..."
His voice was as soft as a sigh, yet it was like a suppressed whirlpool before a storm.
Seeing that he was about to have another outburst, Ruan Yunzhen slapped him hard.
"Smack—"
"Drive carefully."
Lin Wuque instantly calmed down, his emotions becoming peaceful, and his eyes becoming clear.
"Yes, Master."
Li Suqin hugged her arms and trembled, then silently lowered her head.
As we left the city center, the road conditions began to deteriorate, with cars frequently causing traffic jams.
Lin Wuque either rammed directly into the road or used Black Annihilation to quickly clear a path.
During this time, countless zombies approached, only to turn into headless corpses in the blink of an eye.
However, these were all low-level zombies, with only an instinctive craving for flesh and blood; there were no high-level zombies to be seen.
Perhaps sensing Lin Wuque's presence, they avoided him early on.
For them, Lin Wuque was a tough nut to crack; he smelled incredibly fragrant, but when they approached him, all they could offer was their own crystal cores.
Over the past few months, they've learned their lesson; instead of delivering crystal cores, they hunt other humans and zombies.
