After getting ready, Shen Jing began her daily training.
During the one-hour training session.
She noticed that Gu Yan had been watching silently the whole time.
"Is there something wrong?" Shen Jing looked down at herself and did not find that her clothes were disheveled.
Gu Yan turned his head and said calmly, "Your right foot is on the wrong foot. Are you trying to leave an opening for someone to kill you?"
Oh, so he wanted to teach her how to kill.
Well then, it seems that Huang Yue also raised this issue, but she didn't take it seriously at the time.
After Shen Jing recalled Huang Yue's advice and threw herself back into training, she temporarily forgot about Gu Yan. Gu Yan lifted his eyelids to look at her, knowing full well that since he hadn't recalled the memories she had mentioned, why was he suddenly so concerned about her?
Moreover, Gu Yan had witnessed her interactions with the base commander, and frankly, even a fool could see the base commander's feelings for her.
But these were extremely boring things for Gu Yan, and he had absolutely no ideas about them.
Right now, Gu Yan's biggest concern is absorbing more energy to repair and maintain his body's functions, and then...
Thinking of this, Gu Yan pinched the bridge of his nose with a weary expression. In fact, killing Gu Chen was only a matter of time.
He didn't feel the need to place Gu Chen in such an important position.
Is living for Gu Chen?
Such a statement would only make Gu Yan feel that it was simply an overstatement of Gu Chen's importance.
So what was the purpose of his persistence these past few days?
Gu Yan found that almost all his thoughts were related to the woman in front of him.
This discovery struck Gu Yan as utterly absurd, just as ridiculous as the praise he had given Gu Chen.
Two hours into the training session.
Shen Jing took out two desserts, one of which was given to Gu Yan. "That group of people came back again. After they leave, I will continue to hunt for crystal cores in the vicinity. What are your plans?"
Gu Yan paused for a moment, then accepted the ice cream.
“The zombies here are at most level 3, but the mutated animals can reach level 7 or above. Maybe if you are used as bait, you can lure them in.” Gu Yan raised his chin slightly, resting his palm on his chin as he looked at Shen Jing casually.
Shen Jing didn't take the idea of bait to heart.
Because Shen Jing also prefers the feeling of fighting alone, even if Gu Yan was in his pre-amnesia state, she wouldn't interfere in the battlefield she was on. Unless, like last night's situation on the mountain, she stole his monster.
Just as Shen Jing was about to say something more, the shop door was banged on loudly by that group of people.
They must have encountered a horde of zombies ahead, otherwise they wouldn't have turned back halfway.
Hearing the noise outside, Shen Jing immediately put away the fan and ice cream, not forgetting the ice cream in her hand. After putting on a new sun-protective shirt of the same style and re-wearing her gas mask, Shen Jing cautiously used her supernatural ability to detect the outside.
A moment later, Shen Jing whispered to Gu Yan, "There were originally eight people, but now there are two less. The person knocking on the door is a young girl."
Gu Yan listened to her information, ignoring the panicked pleas for help from the people outside, and only pointed out: "How did they discover that there were people here?"
Both he and Shen Jing could activate mental barriers, meaning neither zombies nor living people could detect their presence. The idea of smelling the fish hotpot was even more absurd, as the stench outside would completely mask any other aroma.
Shen Jing thought for a moment and continued to probe for supernatural abilities.
Then she and Gu Yan said in unison, "Among them, there are awakened superhumans."
Since there is a superhuman who can disregard mental barriers, Shen Jing really wants to meet him.
Shen Jing looked around the room. Without the icy fan treatment from before, the indoor temperature had risen back up, and even if someone came in, they wouldn't notice anything amiss.
They exchanged a knowing glance.
Shen Jing stepped forward and opened the shop door.
Six anxious young people were standing outside the shop. Shen Jing didn't recognize any of them. However, judging from the walkie-talkies they were wearing, she knew without a doubt that they were members of the convoy.
However, Shen Jing also found it strange that she kept encountering members who had left the group.
Moreover, it's located in an area close to the city center.
According to He Qing's plan, even if they split up, they should have gone to some of the surrounding shopping malls first.
"Ugh, let me in first, it's so hot!"
"Damn, is that zombie still chasing us?"
"Don't...don't turn around, hurry up and go inside!"
After the group barged in without any politeness, Shen Jing and Gu Yan retreated to the cashier's counter.
At this moment, the two girls closed the door, and one of them hurriedly stepped forward and said to Shen Jing, "Thank you! My name is Wang Junyi, and these are my teammates! You are also members of this car team, right? Which team are you in?"
Listening to Wang Junyi's polite and refined words, Shen Jing glanced at the others who were slumped on the ground.
She couldn't help but feel puzzled again; she couldn't tell which of them was the superhuman.
That's impossible. Even if she just advanced to the next level, her abilities are still quite stable.
Shen Jing turned her gaze back to the girl who had spoken, the one who had come up to greet them after entering the shop. Although she couldn't detect the hidden supernatural ability, she could still see these people's memories if she concentrated.
Shen Jing is always suspicious of anyone who approaches her unsolicited!
Now, looking at Wang Junyi who took the initiative to greet her, she subconsciously looked at the memory from just now.
It would have been better if they hadn't looked; once they did, even Shen Jing couldn't help but take a step back.
What Gu Yan just said was absolutely true. While the abilities of zombies might still be relatively low, the abilities of mutated plants and animals far surpass those of humans. Take the woman in front of us, for example…
"What's wrong? Why are you staring at me?"
Upon hearing Wang Junyi's voice again, Shen Jing immediately snapped out of her daze.
It's best not to alert them yet!
She had just noticed Gu Yanxiao looking at Wang Junyi with interest, so it seemed he had the same idea.
Shen Jing smiled and asked, "Did you encounter some kind of monster just now?"
Upon hearing the word "monster," Wang Junyi's expression stiffened.
Another girl tearfully recounted what had just happened.
It turned out that they had initially decided to retreat because they found the hunting grounds chosen by Shen Jing teeming with zombies. However, they were unexpectedly pursued by a lizard-like monster, and two members of the group were dismembered on the spot…
Thinking of the horrific scene, these people all lowered their heads in horror, clearly deeply traumatized by the experience.
However, the people sitting on the ground immediately thought of Shen Jing, who had stayed safely here. How come they were unharmed?
Unable to contain his anger, he retorted, "You heard our cries for help here a long time ago, didn't you?"
Then another male voice glared at Shen Jing, "If you had opened the door faster, Ah Ling wouldn't have died!"
