Chapter 157 Heart



Just as Shen Jing fell to the ground.

The bullets on the other side also stopped firing.

The wind blew through the tree trunks, causing leaves to fall, and the wind and rain seemed to subside.

After about ten minutes of silence, the sound of rustling footsteps finally came from afar.

Gu Yan slowly approached Shen Jing, his eyes indifferent and cold as he said, "Get up."

But he waited for a long time, but Shen Jing did not stand up. It was as if the person lying on the ground was a corpse!

"If you don't get up, this bullet will go straight through your forehead." Gu Yan's eyes flashed, and then he pressed the gun against Shen Jing's forehead.

The touch on her forehead made Shen Jing's voice sound listless: "If you wanted to kill me, you had countless opportunities just now."

He only aimed at the passenger side, instead of targeting her who was focused on driving.

Moreover, his attack didn't miss a single point while she was running!

"You really think I won't kill you?" Gu Yan's voice was icy. "What made you have such a foolish idea?"

"Then kill him."

Anyway, her fingers are still transparent right now.

After saying this, Shen Jing still lay on the ground, clutching her shoulder, without moving.

Her body just covered her ten transparent fingers.

Although Gu Yan kept saying he wanted to kill him, his body had clearly reached its limit.

His body was in even worse shape than yesterday, to the point that Shen Jing, affected by him, began to show symptoms of detachment from this world.

This big shot is constantly courting disaster...

Even if she didn't want to kill him, it seems that returning to his original world is just around the corner!

This is really frustrating. She doesn't feel any relief at all. It's unbelievable that she wants to stay in the apocalypse and torture herself like this!

Unable to hear Gu Yan's response, Shen Jing's muffled voice came again from her arms, "If I really can't save you this time, then let's just die together."

"I didn't hit you, stop playing dead." Gu Yan's voice held a hint of annoyance, and he couldn't help but clench his fist to his lips, coughing...

Upon hearing Gu Yan's cough, which revealed his exhaustion, Shen Jing looked up at him.

At this moment, Gu Yan's face was extremely pale, and his eyes were dark and swollen, making him look just like a zombie!

Moreover, he had multiple corrosive wounds on his body.

It couldn't have been done by his mutated vine... so it must have been done by Gu Chen!

"I really owe you something."

[Luck value remaining: 1%]

Shen Jing spent all the luck points she had just accumulated.

She thought to herself, "Boss, you have to hold me up! How could I, after two lifetimes, still be no match for Gu Chen?"

And all her previous efforts would be in vain...

If saving the world could change Gu Yan's fate, Shen Jing would be willing to be a savior.

The worst outcome would be that after Gu Yan dies, she returns to her original world!

Of course, the most important thing right now is for her to keep her luck from actually dropping to zero.

"……come out!"

"What?" Shen Jing hadn't detected anyone else there. "You found someone?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the mutated vine sprouted from Gu Yan's palm.

It even detoured around Shen Jing's side, looking aggrieved, its branches and leaves still withered and listless.

However, as Gu Yan attempted to forcibly remove the mutated vine again...

The mutated vine, which had been feeling aggrieved just moments before, immediately became agitated; if it had a mouth, it would have started cursing long ago. Unfortunately, it could only corrode, and even after corroding, it gained no benefit whatsoever.

With no other option, the mutated vine had to continue writing in cursive script on the ground.

[Waaaaah, I don't know anything! Stop pressuring me, you crazy person!]

[Didn't you just say you'd rather use your metal-based abilities than ask for my help? Now you're asking me why!]

[…Waaaah, don't forcibly peel it off, I'll just wither and die!]

[You were almost dead a while ago, and you suddenly got better after seeing Shen Jing. I really don't know anything else, sob sob...]

As the mutated vine continued writing furiously, Gu Yan's expression became even uglier than before.

Shen Jing hid her fingers in her sleeve and turned to look at the mutated vine.

You wouldn't believe it until you look; once you do, you know the mutated vine has been subjected to interrogation again.

Although Shen Jing had confessed to Gu Yan about Ke Ming before, he has now lost his memory.

I hope I won't be as angry as before.

She's probably overthinking it again.

Gu Yan ignored her. After putting the mutated vine back into his palm, he sat down on the ground.

"Stop hiding, we've already seen it."

"What did you see?"

Shen Jing stretched out her now-healed finger and deliberately waved it in front of Gu Yan.

Gu Yan was slightly taken aback. He was sure he wasn't seeing things; her fingers had become transparent.

But now, there hasn't been a single change!

As they were talking, Gu Yan pointed the gun at Shen Jing's forehead again, "What exactly did you do?"

What he really wanted to ask was whether the improvement in his injuries was related to her fingers becoming transparent.

But he really couldn't understand why Shen Jing had saved him.

How to obtain a crystal nucleus?

He did obtain crystal cores from the mutated vines by consuming the spiritual spring water, but they were all low-level.

Saving the world out of vanity?

Now that the stimulant and water purifier have been successfully developed, what else does she want to do?

It wouldn't be impossible for him to continue researching vaccines for the zombie virus.

Gu Yan just felt that the apocalypse was the only normal world!

He sincerely felt that there was no need to "save" the world; everything was humanity's own doing!

Shen Jing stared at the wooden gun in front of her, her eyes almost turning into cross-eyed bulges.

She changed the subject, saying, "With a regular wooden gun, the range couldn't possibly be that far, and the bullets seem to have eyes."
