The wooden ladder built by Song Jinyun was thick and stable. Sheng Ze was the first to climb it, followed by Zhou Mengya, and then several others.
Huo Yuan told Pei Ke to go ahead first, while he stayed behind to cover the rear. Pei Ke nodded gently and then whispered her thanks to Song Jinyun.
Song Jinyun instead retracted the vines, saying, "Wait a moment."
Pei Ke looked at Song Jinyun, her eyes filled with doubt.
"Give me your business card."
Pei Ke, “…”
She just couldn't understand why Song Jinyun was fixated on her business card.
"Bang bang—"
The iron gate was pounded on loudly, and the faint roars of zombies could be heard.
Huo Yuan frowned, a deep disgust flashing across his dark eyes. "Is a business card more important than the life and death of your teammates?"
At this point, why are you still making this kind of request?
Song Jinyun bit her lip, naturally catching the fleeting look of disgust in Huo Yuan's eyes. But what did he know? She had been reborn to stand at the top of the world and to win him over.
Now he actually hates her?
Just as Song Jinyun was feeling dejected by the blow, the iron gate was kicked open, and the three people immediately assumed a fighting stance.
Huo Yuan coldly rebuked, "Song Jinyun, you continue to build the ladder and get Pei Ke over there. I'll think of another way."
“No, you’re more capable, so you and Song Jinyun go over there. I’ll cover the rear and we can use the earthen wall to defend for a while.”
Song Jinyun: "I will not be a deserter."
The three had only been discussing intensely for ten seconds when the clutter piled up in the iron gate was pushed aside. They didn't see any zombies; instead, Mingyue, who had just left, entered.
After the apocalypse, daytime temperatures will reach 45 degrees Celsius, while nighttime temperatures will drop to freezing.
Mingyue, her trench coat pulled tighter, yawned lazily. A mist rose in her signature peach blossom eyes, and a faint smile played on her crimson lips. "I suddenly remembered that today is the zombie horde, the day the zombies evolve. Are you alright?"
Mingyue looked at Pei Ke, but was shocked by Song Jinyun. Why did she know that the zombie horde was a characteristic of zombie evolution?
Was it also a rebirth?
"It's alright, but how did you get up here? There are zombies down there."
Pei Ke put away the spiked club, her ear tips turning red.
Mingyue walked to the railing, leaned against it, rested her chin on one hand, and looked down. "I can control it if I want to."
Pei Ke looked down and saw that the zombies, which had been in a chaotic mess just moments before, were now standing in neat rows, just like students at a school assembly. She was so shocked that she couldn't speak for a long time. "Your mental ability is so powerful..."
"That's impossible!" Song Jinyun sharply interrupted Pei Ke, her eyes fixed on Mingyue with a piercing gaze. "How could you know all this?"
The news that the zombie horde would evolve was only discovered by the second zombie outbreak. This was the first time, so how did she know? Unless she was also reborn!
Who would have thought that the greatest threat in this world wouldn't be Pei Ke, but Ming Yue?
"I am……"
Song Jinyun's eyes widened slightly. Was she about to admit that she had been reborn?
"I learned it from reading novels."
Song Jinyun: ?
"A novel?" Pei Ke pondered for a moment. "Come to think of it, the current situation does indeed resemble the novels I read before the apocalypse."
Mingyue unwrapped a strawberry-flavored lollipop and put it in her mouth, making a "hmm" sound.
Song Jinyun rolled her eyes. Mingyue was definitely reborn; the novel was just an excuse. Only a fool like Pei Ke would believe that.
"By the way, did you use the business card?"
Song Jinyun subconsciously looked up, her raised foot twitching slightly before abruptly stopping. Since she had been reborn, that business card must be a valuable item, but she wondered what its purpose was.
If only she hadn't hesitated to save him, she could have gained goodwill even without lifting a finger, and that business card might have been hers!
