[Ding! Mission triggered: Go to the gathering place 'Ark']

[Task Reward: Random Attribute Points*2, Points*3000]

When Ning Yu sent out the invitation, she heard the system prompt sound.

It seems that after awakening, the rewards for the missions have become richer.

It just so happened that I was planning to go anyway, so this mission was basically given for free.

"My name is Ji Mengyao!"

The blonde punk girl wearing a black baseball cap stretched out her hand to Ning Yu and Shen Yiyue and introduced her name.

Ning Yu was closer, so she went up to hold her hand first:

"My name is Ning Yu, her name is Shen Yiyue, and she is Shen Qianqian's sister."

[Your friendship level is: Normal]

[The origin of the target has been detected as: stationary]

[The target's replicable origin ability has been detected: Death Resistance]

[Cannot be copied due to low friendship level. 】

Ning Yu successfully detected Ji Mengyao's origin and abilities through physical contact.

She is indeed an awakened one.

Before Ning Yu made any move, he saw the fight between Ji Mengyao and the greedy man from afar.

Her head was clearly pierced, but it soon recovered, leaving only blood.

His expression did not change at all throughout the whole process, and he seemed to feel no pain.

Even after being hurt by the mutated zombies, there was no sign of him turning into a zombie.

If you are not an awakened person, there is no way to explain all this.

Death resistance, it sounds like this is an ability that can quickly recover from a dead state.

This made Ning Yu very excited.

But if she was really immune to death, wouldn't that be a bit of a bug? Her mind quickly worked, and she thought of a possibility: if she wasn't killed but simply trapped, this ability wouldn't work.

Strength is still the most important thing. Simply being immortal may be a side effect in certain circumstances.

Ji Mengyao certainly didn't know that Ning Yu could get so much information just by shaking hands with her, and she was even thinking about how to deal with her.

Ning Yu remained calm on the surface and shook hands with her with a smile.

Ji Mengyao looked at the beautiful silver-haired little loli curiously. Her delicate face looked like a porcelain doll.

The most important thing is that she was not afraid or panicked like other children, and she even had a verbal argument with me just now.

She glanced at Shen Yiyue who was holding a gun again, and secretly confirmed in her heart: These two people must be awakened ones, and she must find a way to win them over to the exploration team of the gathering place.

Ning Yu was thinking about how to raise the favorability of this golden-haired tsundere to 'friendly' so that she could copy her [Death Resistance].

Such a good ability, take it! Shen Yiyue looked at the two people in front of her who had ulterior motives, and felt that there was calculation in their eyes.

The group quickly took action, with Shen Yiyue and Ji Mengyao walking in front to lead the way.

Wu Di, the man in a suit, carried a huge box on his back, as if he was carrying a coffin, and walked behind to protect the children.

Ning Yu also followed the man in the suit and mingled with the other kids.

She looked at Wu Di who had a blank expression on his face.

Carrying such a big box on his back didn't seem to have any effect on him. He didn't even take a breath, and his poker face remained unchanged.

Ning Yu suspected that this guy was also an awakened one, and should be the kind with very strong strength.

But I didn't see him help just now, so I'm not sure.

Ning Yu did not take any action along the way, but Shen Yiyue killed quite a few zombies, and all the points went to Ning Yu.

Although the fact that she can see through the weaknesses of mutant zombies has been exposed, it can be attributed to awakening abilities, and she does not want to show her own strength yet.

The crowd walked in the alley for a while and left the casino area.

A fully armed pickup truck was seen beside a deserted road of moderate width. All the zombies around the truck had been killed.

There is a row of sharp guardrails installed in front of the car, obviously used to hit zombies.

The car was obviously a veteran of battles, with all kinds of strange marks on it: dried blood, mud, traces of metal blades, and black explosion marks.

Behind the car is the pickup truck's loading area, which can be used to load people or cargo. This type of transportation is particularly convenient in doomsday.

Wu Di, the man in a suit, climbed onto the back of the pickup truck first and put the large box that looked like a coffin on the back.

"Boom!"

This blow seemed to be enough to break the pickup truck apart.

Then he opened the rear gate of the loading area behind the pickup truck, reached out to the children below, and helped them up one by one.

Ji Mengyao had already taken out the keys and sat in the driver's seat.

The man in the suit was right behind him, with no intention of moving to the passenger seat.

Shen Yiyue wanted to chat with her sister in the back of the car and talk about her experiences in the past few days.

Ning Yu told Shen Yiyue not to say anything extra, and then climbed into the passenger seat.

Ji Mengyao, who was about to drive, glanced at the silver-haired little loli who climbed up, said nothing, turned the key and started the car.

"Boom boom"

The pickup truck started up like an old grandfather who was coughing, and the entire body of the truck began to tremble slightly along with the engine.

Ji Mengyao took out a pack of blueberry mint ladies' cigarettes from her pocket and took out a lighter to light it.

How many cigarettes has she smoked in this moment?

Is this still a smoking girl?

Ning Yu glanced at her and said nothing.

But Ji Mengyao took action. She hesitated for a moment as if she was reluctant.

He took out another one from his pocket and handed it to Ning Yu:

"Try it? Sister, this cigarette is very strong."

Seeing that Ning Yu was young, she began to regard herself as an elder sister, and wanted to seduce Ning Yu to take up the path of smoking.

Ning Yu's body was not suitable for smoking, so she waved her hand and refused, "Thank you, but no."

Ji Mengyao shook the cigarette impatiently. This was her treasure.

"Why are you afraid of ladies' cigarettes? Do you think you are too young to smoke?"

Ning Yu made up a lame excuse:

“Smoking is harmful to your health.”

Ji Mengyao curled her lips and said nothing. She didn't quite understand why she had to be so particular when it was already the end of the world.

She took back the hand that was offering her the cigarette and put her hands back on the steering wheel.

Suddenly, as if she realized something, she took the cigarette out of her mouth and seemed ready to put it out.

However, Ning Yu stopped her:

"It's okay, go ahead and smoke it. The smell of gasoline in this car is really bad."

She understood that Ji Mengyao was afraid that she would also be exposed to secondhand smoke and planned to temporarily give up her hobby.

Ji Mengyao looked at Ning Yu in surprise, her amber eyes under her silver hair showed no emotion at all.

She didn't bother to be polite with Ning Yu and lit it again. She took a deep puff and the flame on the cigarette suddenly became brighter.

She showed an extremely comfortable expression and exhaled intoxicating smoke.

After sawing the zombies and taking a puff of smoke, I felt as happy as a god.

The light scent of blueberry mint covered up the unpleasant gasoline smell in the cab, which was much better than before.

She released the clutch, then stepped on the accelerator and the pickup truck started.

Ning Yu stared out the car window, her snow-soft hair floating in the hot wind that poured in through the window.
