Yu Wanqiu stood behind Yu Yinyang, looking at Huang Zhao with a complicated expression.
How could you treat my brother like this?
When Huang Zhao was seen at the gathering place in Shaoguan, he was wearing armor.
Now, after removing the armor, it turns out to be a boy who is about the same age as me.
But what the other person did was something she could never have imagined.
She had absorbed the level-two wind-element energy crystal that Huang Zhao had given her, allowing her to successfully break through to level three and gain even greater power.
He promised to come back and ask her about it, but after bringing her to Dawn City, he never showed up again.
Huang Zhao turned to look at Yu Wanqiu, after she had reorganized Dawn City.
Yu Wanqiu regained the youthful beauty that should be present at her age, and she was no longer as timid as she had been when they first met.
It seems that fighting zombies outside has indeed served as a significant training opportunity.
He looked at himself with a puffed-up face, which was actually quite cute.
It seems I gave her a wind-elemental energy crystal before to test whether absorbing crystals of the same element would increase her talent.
I wonder if I've absorbed it all, and if my talent has improved?
The timing wasn't right, so Huang Zhao glanced at the red horse and then looked at it.
Yu Yinyang quickly grabbed his sister, not feeling any resentment at being kicked away by Huang Zhao.
He manipulated the titanium alloy metal surrounding the red horse to fly back to his body and hide, saying somewhat embarrassedly:
"Sis, I'm fine. I forgot that the throwing knife had zombie blood on it. That person should be infected by now..."
His voice was not concealed, and everyone present had absorbed energy crystals and undergone evolution, so they could hear it clearly.
Chiju's face turned deathly pale. He raised his hand and pointed at Yu Yinyang in a trembling voice, clearly terrified.
"You, you, you..."
He would rather be killed by Yu Yinyang than become a zombie with only a thirst for killing.
"Boss!"
Upon hearing this, the rest of the people who had come with Red Steed immediately broke through the Dawn City guards' blockade and ran towards Red Steed.
Everyone clearly knew what Yu Yinyang meant: their leader, Chiju, had been infected with the zombie virus!
"Aren't you going a bit too far?"
The bespectacled man glared angrily at Huang Zhao, disregarding the fact that Huang Zhao was far stronger than him and could easily crush him with a single hand.
Huang Zhao nodded to himself as he looked at the scene before him, somewhat surprised by their actions.
He showed no remorse for infecting him with Yu Yinyang's words, and stated directly:
"If you stop using your powers now and focus all your efforts on suppressing the zombie virus, you won't have to turn into a zombie."
"But the price is that, apart from your physical strength, you will no longer be able to improve your strength or use your special abilities."
What would you choose?
Huang Zhao's words resounded in Chiju's mind like a great bell.
Can I no longer use my powers... or even improve my strength?
Akako asked himself, should he choose to suppress the virus and live on, or give up suppressing it and end his own life?
As for turning into a zombie, that option is not even available in Red Horse's choices.
Finally, Akago raised his head and looked at the most excited bespectacled man, saying:
"Ah Hao, you're the smartest. Go back and lead the brothers to survive in this apocalypse."
"Screw you! We'll go back together! It's okay if you can't improve your strength, I'll protect you from now on!"
“...”
Huang Zhao crossed his arms and looked at the scene in front of him, feeling quite surprised.
Even in the apocalypse, are there still deep brotherhoods?
Huang Zhao used his spiritual connection to reach the city and contact Alice, who was at the rescue station, asking her to come out.
Surrounded by numerous guards in Dawn City, the Red Steed and his companions revealed their true feelings.
This did indeed move many of the guards, who all looked at Yu Yinyang with some reproach.
Yu Wanqiu couldn't stand the stares of so many people and returned to her teammates in the dump truck hunting team.
She left her younger brother alone to endure the glares of others.
Yu Yinyang raised the titanium alloy blade again, worried that the guards would rush up and beat him.
He looked apologetically at Akoma, who was still standing straight despite being infected by zombies.
Huang Zhao looked at the two people in front of him who were gradually breaking down in tears, and coughed lightly.
"Actually, being scratched by a zombie is not irreversible."
"If you are scratched by a level 2 zombie, you can be healed as long as there is a level 3 recovery ability user."
Upon hearing Huang Zhao's words, Zhou Chenghao immediately rushed towards Huang Zhao, but was stopped by Qin Yi.
"Please! Save the fire!"
"My name is Red Horse!"
Red Horse shouted defiantly, though there was little despair in his voice.
A dark red figure emerged from within Dawn City.
It was Alice, dressed in Lolita fashion and carrying a dark red parasol.
Huang Zhao smiled and said in a relaxed tone:
"Coincidentally, our Dawn City does have a recovery-type ability user. You're lucky."
At this moment, everyone's attention was drawn to Alice's figure, and few people heard Huang Zhao's words.
Alice slowly walked to Huang Zhao's side, and a soft white light condensed in her hand, flying towards the red horse that stood straight in front of her.
The wounds on Chiju's body, inflicted by Yu Yinyang's sharp blade, began to heal at a visible speed.
The feeling of being eroded by the zombie virus in Chiju's body quickly subsided and soon disappeared.
Upon receiving healing from a restorative ability for the first time, Akoma groaned in comfort, "Mmm~"
Then he realized that the situation was inappropriate, and quickly tried his best to endure it.
After confirming that the zombie virus on Chiju had been expelled, Alice stopped using her powers and silently stood behind Huang Zhao.
