Qi Wei's eyes lit up when he saw Gu Mingyue. He hadn't seen the bird and the fire clearly before, but now that he met those beautiful peach blossom eyes, he was completely mesmerized.
Shen Jiaojiao tried to argue back, but he pushed her back into the room.
"Beautiful lady, you did the right thing by putting out the fire. I'm the hero who cleared out the monsters in the stairwell, and you're the heroine who put out the fire. Hehe, we're a match made in heaven." He grinned lewdly, showing off his big yellow teeth.
"Boss, cough cough, this is that female demon on the 17th floor," Li Guangquan reminded Qi Wei.
He also wanted to use Qi Wei to torture this woman on the 17th floor to avenge his broken leg!
"What female demon? She's clearly a heroine, an angel." Qi Wei glared at him fiercely.
"So you're Qi Wei?" Gu Mingyue sneered.
"I am Qi Wei. I never thought that my heroic deeds would reach the ears of beautiful women."
Qi Wei didn't notice the cold glint in Gu Mingyue's eyes and laughed it off, assuming that Gu Mingyue was also captivated by his heroic reputation.
Without the fire, the crow monster that Qi Wei had thrown into the fire stood up again and flew towards him.
But it was injured and had lost its aggressiveness. Qi Wei grabbed it and was about to crush it to death.
Seeing that the crow was about to be strangled, the little boy who was being held down by Qi Wei's men broke free from his embrace, rushed over, and bit down hard on Qi Wei's arm, drawing blood immediately.
"Damn it, you brat, how dare you bite me! Die!"
Enraged, Qi Wei was about to slit the boy's throat with a blade.
Gu Mingyue squinted: "Xinghe, help me catch this Qi Da Lian. I'm going to give him a good beating."
No sooner had he finished speaking than a bullet was fired, aimed directly at Qi Wei's wrist.
Xinghe walked out from the corner of the stairs behind Gu Mingyue.
Qi Wei was startled by the gunshot, but the metal blade he manipulated in mid-air saved him from the attack.
He immediately dropped the crow and the boy he was holding.
He pulled out a pistol from his waist and fired at Xinghe.
A spatial wall rose up in front of Xinghe, and bullets hitting it made a crackling sound, like hitting a steel plate.
Half a minute later.
Xinghe remained dressed in white, her demeanor composed. Qi Wei, on the other hand, looked disheveled, with several bloody gashes in places unprotected by blades. He fled in a sorry state, even using innocent subordinates as shields, but all to no avail.
His left arm and both legs were pierced by bullets, but he was able to survive because of his powerful physique as a superhuman.
Qi Wei knelt on the ground, glaring fiercely at the handsome man in front of him. The excruciating pain in his body was caused by this couple. Thinking of this, he glanced at the beautiful woman behind the man and then pointed his gun at Gu Mingyue.
Whoosh!
The bullet was deflected.
Gu Mingyue stood gracefully, without even twitching her eyelashes, and Xinghe had already erected a spatial wall of the same height as her beside her.
Seeing that neither of them was afraid of bullets, Qi Wei finally became frightened, and beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, washing over his greasy, dark face.
Seeing this, he grabbed the one-eyed boy from the ground: "Don't come any closer, or I'll kill him."
Xinghe only knew to do as Gu Mingyue said, and everything else had to take a backseat to Gu Mingyue's orders.
Without showing the slightest emotion, he still fired the gun, shooting Qi Wei through the groin.
Qi Wei groaned and fell to the ground, and the boy took the opportunity to escape.
While he still had a sliver of reason left, Qi Wei aimed at the boy, his finger about to pull the trigger.
Gu Mingyue moved, and with the activation of her mental domain, Qi Wei's mind felt like it was filled with lead, and the gun in his hand felt incredibly heavy. He completely lost consciousness.
Shen Ming stared in shock at Qi Wei, who remained in the position of holding the gun but could not pull the trigger.
The ordinary people around them all became motionless background figures.
The beautiful, fairy-like woman slowly walked down from upstairs.
The setting sun slowly shone on the woman's face through the window on the 12th floor. Under the soft light and shadow, her beautiful features became even more radiant, truly like an angel!
"What's your name?" Gu Mingyue lifted the boy's chin and reached out to remove the cloth wrapped around his left eye. There was no eyeball there, only gruesome red, rotting flesh emitting a faint odor.
The wound looks like it was pecked by a bird.
"Shen Ming," the boy whispered, a hint of embarrassment creeping onto his face as he looked at the beautiful woman before him.
"Shen Ming, you'll be working for me from now on," Gu Mingyue said casually, then let go of his hand.
She knew this boy; she learned mind hacking because of him.
In her past life, she escaped from the Junyue Mansion community with her younger sister, brother, and others. She saw this boy cut his arm with a knife and feed the crow monsters with his blood, controlling them to kill other monsters.
So he followed suit and later, after becoming blind, he was able to earn the reputation of a blind madman in the apocalypse by commanding a horde of mutated rats.
He was practically her teacher in her past life!
Shen Ming raised his other eye and looked at Gu Mingyue with a bright, sparkling gaze.
"You...don't you mind that I'm young? I'm still half blind." Shen Ming said weakly.
"Did you control that crow monster?" Gu Mingyue asked.
"yes."
"Do you have the guts to kill the monsters outside?"
"Yes!" Shen Ming said, clenching his little fist.
"Don't you like being with me?"
“How could it be!”
"Then you're mine from now on," Gu Mingyue said domineeringly.
After the black rain, the mutated rabbits, quails, and fish kept in room 1702 started causing a ruckus every day.
They taste delicious and contain abundant energy, but cannot be stored in a spatial dimension. They are also wild and untamed, always trying to escape when Gu Mingyue is away killing monsters. They desperately need a caretaker.
Gu Mingyue thought Shen Ming was a pretty good kid.
As the two were talking, Xinghe walked over to the unconscious Qi Wei, took out a pig-tying rope from his spatial storage, and used his white-gloved hands to tie the man up securely.
Seeing that Qi Wei was bound and unable to resist, Gu Mingyue withdrew her mental domain.
"Where...where are you two evil people taking my son?"
Qi Wei's father spoke as if waking from a dream. In the blink of an eye, he saw that his son had fainted and was tied up tightly like a pig, as if he was about to be slaughtered at any moment. He was so frightened that he stood up shakily.
"Don't touch my man! He risked his life to come here during the apocalypse and cleared out all the monsters in the stairwell."
"You're alive and well now, all thanks to Qi Wei." Although she was scared, Shen Jiaojiao still stood up and spoke up.
Qi Wei is the only person here who can stand up for her. Without Qi Wei, she would be bullied to death by other men.
Li Guangquan and Qi Wei's men also started shouting.
"Do you think this coward can clear out the humanoid monsters in the first-floor hallway?" Gu Mingyue walked up to Qi Wei, glanced at him, and spoke sarcastically.
After the earlier fire and gunshots, the other residents in the building gathered on the 12th floor.
"If it wasn't Qi Wei who cleared out the monster, was it you? We saw Qi Wei with our own eyes that day, holding a gun, running up to the 16th floor all by himself!"
