Chapter 114 She dared not look back, she could only keep going...
Xiao Die, puzzled, helped Old Dong up and bent down to examine him.
Old Dong was not only in pain, but also confused. He suddenly felt a strong stomach cramp, and just as he was about to say something, he vomited out with a "whoosh".
He vomited blood, mixed with bits of flesh and internal organs, and a living creature that was constantly jumping around!
This is a slender, beetle-like monster with a blood-red body, a head shaped like a sickle, and a mouth that keeps opening and closing, filled with deformed teeth.
Its head and eight pairs of legs are very thin, but its belly is very round and swollen, clearly indicating that it has swallowed a lot of things.
It somehow burrowed into Old Dong's body and began gnawing at his internal organs!
Xiao Die was horrified. She stepped forward and stomped on the beast. The beast's body had poor defenses and was crushed. Juices exploded, and blood and bits of flesh splattered everywhere.
Thinking about whose pieces of meat they were, Xiaodie almost vomited.
After vomiting out the monster, Old Dong, whose face had been flushed red just moments before, suddenly turned deathly pale, and his body trembled even more violently than before.
Xiao Die, supporting Lao Dong's body, cried out in a tearful voice, "Xiao Bei, come quickly and treat Lao Dong! He keeps vomiting blood!"
Xiao Bei's hands froze, and he punched a monster in the head, smashing its skull.
The group was so focused on the fight that they didn't notice what was happening behind them.
They were all shocked when they realized that the dark figures were all monsters.
"Old Dong!"
"Get on the bus! Everyone get on the bus first!"
"Hurry! Go!"
After everyone boarded the bus and closed the doors, they realized that no one knew how to drive the bus.
Old Dong was barely breathing, his eyes rolled back, and his breathing became weak. Xiao Bei had switched back to her normal body and was receiving healing treatment.
However, he is only at the most basic G-level cure, which is far from enough to cure the massive bleeding caused by internal organ damage in a short period of time.
His current actions are merely a delaying tactic.
Everyone knew it, but no one could bring themselves to make Xiao Bei stop.
The vehicle shook violently as several of the fastest of the monsters rushed to its location and pounced on it.
Zhan Wenyuan quickly arranged for her teammates to defend and counterattack from various positions. The few remaining intact pieces of glass shattered completely, shards flying everywhere, hitting her, cutting her skin, and some even getting into her eyes.
But nobody cares about these things.
The vanguard of the monster horde has arrived, and the main force will soon rush over and completely engulf their bus.
Almost everyone in the car was G-level, except for Gano, who had dual F-level abilities. However, he had never shown his other ability in public, and it seemed that he had no ability to fight directly.
Most of the monsters currently appearing outside are G-rank. Although they are of the same rank, there are too many of them. Even if it's a war of attrition, the monsters can wear them down.
A deep sense of regret was evident in Zhan Wenyuan's eyes.
Her eyes stung, and her heart clenched as if a sharp blade was twisting inside her, making it painful to breathe and suffocating her.
She gritted her teeth and roared as she hacked at the monsters.
She regretted it, wanted to shout "I'm sorry!", and even contemplated suicide, apologizing to all her companions before she died. If she hadn't suggested taking this path, none of them would have been led into such a dangerous situation.
Knowing her family as she did, she knew they would send a message to let her know they were safe if there was even the slightest possibility. The fact that they hadn't sent any messages twice in a row meant that something terrible had probably happened to them.
In fact, Zhan Wenyuan knew all about it, but she was unwilling to admit it. She always felt that there was still hope until the very last moment, so she wanted to go back and check in advance.
If this leads to the death of all her companions, she will become a vengeful spirit and whip herself every day, even in death.
Just when Zhan Wenyuan was in despair, the familiar sound of the accelerator suddenly rang out, and after stalling once, the vehicle miraculously restarted!
In her haste, Zhan Wenyuan glanced at the driver's seat and discovered that it was Shan Ran sitting there.
Shan Ran looked clearly unfamiliar with driving, as if he was imitating Lao Dong's usual driving style, but the car started moving again after only one stall.
They had only gone a few meters when they came to a sudden stop. The people fighting lost their balance and fell forward one after another.
With an apologetic look, Shan Ran muttered, "Sorry, I'm not very skilled..."
But this jolt shook off all the monsters that had climbed onto the roof of the vehicle.
The bus started up again, accelerating rapidly and rushing forward.
Shan Ran's chest heaved violently. She took a few deep breaths, trying to calm her wildly beating heart.
She was just trying to imitate Lao Dong's usual posture, but she never expected that she would actually succeed in such a critical moment!
She kept her eyes fixed on the road ahead, pressing the accelerator harder and harder, heading straight for the oncoming monster.
Zhan Wenyuan walked to the driver's seat, and finally, the tears she had been holding back for so long fell. Seeing Shan Ran smile, she wanted to smile and thank her as well.
But suddenly, a whooshing sound came rushing in from the side.
Shan Ran's attention was entirely focused on driving, and as an ordinary person, her perception was average, but Zhan Wenyuan, who was a superhuman, noticed it.
Without thinking, she lunged towards the car window and blocked Shan Ran's left side.
The driver's side window was already half broken, and it was usually held together with transparent tape, which only provided some wind protection and had no protective function whatsoever.
Thus, a foul-smelling mouth bit through Zhan Wenyuan's throat without any resistance.
Almost simultaneously, a jellyfish landed on the beast's face, its venomous stinger piercing the ugly eye.
The monster let out a terrible scream, fell down, rolled to the ground, and was crushed by the speeding bus.
"Yuanyuan!"
"Senior!"
Chaos erupted inside the carriage as a crowd surged forward, crowding into the driver's seat.
Gano stopped Long Zheming, who was about to burst forward: "Senior is driving, don't push!"
Xiao Bei and Tao Xiaopang held onto Long Zheming from behind, afraid that he might do something irrational.
Lingling is strong; she lifted Zhan Wenyuan up with one hand and placed her on the floor.
Once the driver's seat was a little more spacious, Gano squeezed in and used his body to block Shanran.
His pupils had become thin slits, and in the darkness, a faint, shimmering red light flashed.
He peered out the car window and checked the area around the vehicle, only feeling a little relieved after confirming that there were no more lurking monsters.
"Yuanyuan, hold on, you must hold on... Xiaobei, Xiaobei, I beg you, please save Yuanyuan, I beg you..."
Long Zheming used his hand to block the huge wound on Zhan Wenyuan's throat. The bite from the monster was extremely powerful. Both Zhan Wenyuan and the monster were G-level, but Zhan Wenyuan's ability did little to enhance her physical defenses, making it impossible for her to withstand the monster's sharp teeth.
Blood gushed out, staining the ground where she lay red.
Xiao Bei had a crystal core in his mouth; this was the second one he had used today. He had already used one when he was treating Lao Dong.
His healing abilities were limited; he needed to stop the bleeding for both of them immediately and make their wounds heal as quickly as possible. One person's internal organs needed to grow back, and the other person's throat wound needed to close.
This was almost impossible for him.
Xiao Bei held one hand above Zhan Wenyuan, palm down, with a faint white light appearing and continuously moving towards Zhan Wenyuan's throat.
His other hand was placed on the stomach of the unconscious Lao Dong.
He couldn't stop the bleeding as fast as he could stop it.
He chewed up a crystal core, took out another one, and wanted more after using it, but Tao Xiaopang stopped him.
"Xiao Bei, that's enough. More than three crystal cores will cause contamination. You can't eat any more."
Xiao Bei tried to break free and continued eating, but Tao Xiaopang simply reached out and snatched it away.
"I told you not to eat it! Two people are already gone, do you want to get yourself into trouble too?"
"Who did you say is gone?!" Long Zheming, who had been comforting Zhan Wenyuan with his head down, suddenly looked up, his eyes wide with fury as he glared at Tao Xiaopang and roared angrily.
Tao Xiaopang looked bitter and turned his head away from them: "Brother Long, don't be too sad. Accept reality, okay? Xiao Bei has suffered a lot, and they've been in a lot of pain being suspended like that. Why don't you just let them go..."
A figure suddenly darted in front of Tao Xiaopang and threw a punch, knocking Tao Xiaopang to the ground.
The surrounding crowd erupted in screams again.
Someone stopped Long Zheming, while someone else squatted down to check on Tao Xiaopang's condition.
Tao Xiaopang, who had initially felt somewhat guilty, was now filled with nothing but anger.
"Are you crazy? Am I wrong? Look how pale Xiao Bei's face is. He's just a healing-type ability user, not someone who can bring people back to life. He used to be just an ordinary doctor."
Old Dong's internal organs are riddled with holes, and Boss Zhan's neck is pierced; neither of them will survive, do you understand? They won't survive!
Long Zheming's eyes were bloodshot as he struggled to get up again: "You're talking nonsense!"
Tao Xiaopang spat out a mouthful of blood and looked at Long Zheming with resentment: "To put it bluntly, all of this is your own fault. Don't you know how difficult it is for someone without superpowers to survive with a bunch of supplies in this world?"
"Signature Zhan's family runs such a big supermarket; something must have happened. She was anxious to get back, and instead of stopping her, you indulged her. She was so agitated and irrational, but weren't you irrational too? If you had stopped her then, would all this trouble have happened?"
Long Zheming stopped moving, his whole body stiffened, and he trembled.
His eyes were lifeless as he murmured, "Me? It was me... It was me... It's all...my fault?"
"Yes! It's all your fault! Indulging them will eventually harm the people closest to you, and you are a living example!"
"Enough! Stop talking! Little Fatty, you're not allowed to provoke Brother Long anymore!" Xiao Die stopped Tao Xiaopang.
Without the replenishment of crystal core energy, Xiao Bei's power bar was depleted, and the white light in his hands gradually faded away.
Old Dong and Zhan Wenyuan stopped breathing.
Long Zheming held Zhan Wenyuan's body, his body covered in blood. He didn't bother to use his water-based abilities to clean himself, and just sat there blankly on the ground.
Shan Ran tried to hold back her tears, but she couldn't stop them. Gano, who was standing next to her, would wipe them away for her from time to time.
She didn't dare look back, she could only keep driving forward.
