Chapter 107, Chapter 7: Female Supporting Character in a Zombie Novel
Everyone instinctively looked up.
In the air were mutated monsters that looked exactly like the monsters on the ground.
But they had an extra pair of huge wings.
Like a group of demonic birdmen, they swooped down over the high-built vine net.
Xu Qingzhou suddenly turned the lightning and blasted it into the air, shattering the birdmen charging in front of him into dust.
The next moment, more vines began to meander and entwine from the forest.
In the blink of an eye, the area above was also firmly blocked by the vine netting.
The monster went berserk, unleashing all sorts of supernatural energy beams that slammed into the grid.
Vines were constantly being torn apart and burned, and new ones were constantly being planted to replace them.
These lush green plants, with Yu Wanwan as the origin, firmly protected this area in the center, and not a single zombie could break through the barrier.
The leader had already led his men and joined up with Xu Qingzhou and his group.
Gazing at the resilient green wall, he seemed lost in thought.
"Wood-based superpowers...are they that strong?"
Jiang Yiming's face was a little pale, but he continued to channel his supernatural power, killing monsters through the gaps.
He glanced at the dazed leader and grinned.
"No, she's the only one who's strong."
In fact, not only the leaders but also Xu Qingzhou's people were in a daze.
Especially the new team members who joined later.
They always knew Yu Wanwan was very strong, but every time she made a move, she refreshed their understanding of her.
This is more than just strong, this is inhuman!
Xu Qingzhou glanced at Yu Wanwan beside him, his brows furrowing slightly.
"Are you alright?"
He didn't know where her limits lay.
But to support such a large defense network, new supplies need to be continuously supplied to fill it.
It's obvious it won't be easy.
Yu Wanwan let out a breath and looked at the group of monsters outside through the gaps in the vines.
"Not good."
She's exhausted!
Xu Qingzhou's heart skipped a beat, and though his mouth moved, he couldn't utter a word.
say what?
Should we let her rest for a while?
There are indeed wood-type ability users in their team, but she's probably the only one who can achieve this level.
She's gone to rest, what about these people?
Yu Wanwan glanced at him and waved to him.
Xu Qingzhou didn't know what she was going to do, but obediently lowered her head.
"How……"
He had barely finished speaking when a soft touch appeared on his lips.
Xu Qingzhou's pupils widened slightly, and the lightning in his hand veered off course, crackling and striking the same monster.
Before he could react, he felt a light lick on his lips and was then pushed away.
"So I'm going to zoom in and wait here."
They absorbed some luck and received a brief replenishment of energy.
Yu Wanwan's face was rosy. She moved her wrists and in a flash, she appeared outside the vines.
"!!!"
"Xia Weiwei!"
Xu Qingzhou reacted and rushed over, but the vines had already closed up again, trapping him inside.
"Xia Weiwei, come back!"
Yu Wanwan looked back, raised her hand, and sealed all the gaps with green leaves.
The open space, enclosed by vines, was completely sealed off, preventing even light from getting in.
It was only when a fire-type ability user ignited a small flame at their fingertips that the area regained its light.
But all they could see were the survivors' bewildered faces and Xu Qingzhou, who was frantically battering the vines.
They couldn't see what was happening outside; they could only hear the monster's sharp, terrifying roar.
No one dared to speak. Looking at the flustered Xu Qingzhou, they were at a loss, not knowing what to do.
Xu Qingning stepped forward with a pale face and spoke in a hoarse voice.
"Brother, calm down. Sister Weiwei never does anything she's not sure she can do..."
Xu Qingzhou certainly knew.
But with so many strange monsters outside, how could he feel at ease?
She's dead, what about his mission?
Xu Qingzhou closed his eyes briefly, a bitter smile appearing on his lips.
But is he really so afraid because of the mission?
The lightning in his hand lit up and went out, went out and lit up again, over and over again.
He hadn't lost his mind after all, and forcibly broke through the vines that were a protective shield for the survivors.
He remained silent, sitting on the ground, staring intently at the empty vines, waiting without uttering a sound.
Outside the vine net, Yu Wanwan "saw" Xu Qingzhou's performance through the vines, and her eyelashes trembled.
She lifted her eyelids and watched as the monster excitedly raised its claws and attacked her.
Without dodging or flinching, he stood still, letting the sharp claws pierce his heart.
Bright red blood dripped from its claws onto the ground and seeped into the earth.
Tiny blades of grass silently sprouted from the ground, covering the bloodstains.
Yu Wanwan's smile widened, gentle and pure.
A gentle breeze carries the rich scents of flowers, herbs, and woods.
The monster seemed to sense the danger, abruptly pulling out its claws and retreating with an uneasy growl.
Unfortunately, it was too late.
The pale hand slowly rose, as if in slow motion, but it was ready to grab the monster's neck.
With a sudden burst of force in the wrist.
With a snap, the monster's neck was broken, and countless streams of life flowed from its body to the hand that was gripping its neck.
It wasn't smashed to pieces, but it completely lost its life and the ability to move.
Yu Wanwan let go of it, threw it to the ground, and looked at the group of monsters with a gentle and harmless expression.
More and more monsters roared and charged forward.
Yu Wanwan always had a relaxed smile on her lips.
Beneath the blood-stained clothes, the veins beneath the skin faintly shimmered with a strange and vibrant emerald green light.
Faced with the surging monsters, she slowly raised her hand.
Pointing forward, countless petals and green grasses formed a magnificent rain of flowers, elegant and dazzling, colliding head-on with them.
The rain of petals was shattered and scattered across the ground.
The monster, stained with petals and green grass, was instantly shredded into powder.
The earth was covered with petals, and all the monsters had vanished.
Yu Wanwan sighed almost imperceptibly and slowly leaned back.
Branches and vines quickly extended over, caught her, and gently placed her on a bed of flower petals.
An unseen life force seeped into her skin, soothing the wounds in her heart.
The bloodstains on the clothes were also washed clean.
When the vine net parted again to create a path, Yu Wanwan swayed and staggered into it.
A figure rushed over like a cannonball and grabbed her in a hug.
He was extremely strong, and Yu Wanwan was knocked back several steps.
If it weren't for the vines supporting her from behind, she probably would have fallen flat on her face in front of everyone.
Yu Wanwan was speechless for a moment, and just as she was about to say something, she noticed his suppressed trembling.
"..."
After a pause, Yu Wanwan didn't push him away. Instead, she raised her hand and patted his back lightly.
"What are you doing? I'm not dead yet!"
Xu Qingzhou shook his head, his voice hoarse and tinged with a slight sob.
"Don't do that again next time. No matter what you're doing, don't leave my sight, okay?"
He can accept that she is better than him, and he can accept standing in her shadow.
The only thing I can't accept is the feeling of not being able to see her and not knowing what she's doing.
Yu Wanwan's heart trembled, and soft ripples appeared in her eyes.
Her smile deepened, and she still spoke in her usual languid tone.
"Can't I even leave your sight when I go to the toilet?"
"..."
"Huh? You're such a pervert!"
"..."
Xu Qingzhou silently released her and turned his head away from her.
But he held her hand tightly and wouldn't let go.
Yu Wanwan chuckled and didn't break free, dragging him inside.
"Now, can you tell us what happened?"
The leader was still in a daze and had not yet come to his senses.
It only took a few minutes from when Yu Wanwan left to when she came back in.
But outside, there was no trace of the monster.
There were only petals scattered on the ground and fresh, tender grass.
He licked his chapped lips, and after a long while, he slowly spoke.
There is indeed a survivor base established by the military ahead, and these people were once residents of the survivor base.
Just two weeks ago, an extremely serious mutated infection suddenly broke out inside the base.
"It's not a zombie virus...it's bugs! Very small, red bugs!"
The leader's face showed jealousy and fear, and his expression was pained.
“They emerge from underground and burrow into people's bodies...and then the people...suddenly mutate. They look similar to zombies, but are much more agile. They pounce on anyone they see. Even if they're beaten to a pulp, even if only a finger is left, they can still move and attack. You saw it just now. Unlike zombies, they don't eat people; they only attack. And once you're injured by them, you can mutate in less than a minute..."
The base instantly turned into hell, and the defenses were easily breached from within.
This small group of people were mercenaries from the base who happened to be on a mission on the outskirts and managed to escape.
"They... those monsters controlled by insects, and countless zombies, they've all poured out of the base, they're everywhere... We don't dare go back..."
Another survivor said, crying.
"We can only hide here, block the road, and prevent anything from passing by. We also...we're hoping to get some food from passersby..."
Everyone's hearts sank.
What was thought to be a place of hope turned into an even greater source of nightmares.
"Didn't you ever think about running away?"
The leader sat on the ground, his face filled with sorrow.
"We can't escape, we can't let these monsters get out, otherwise, given their infection rate..."
Xu Qingzhou remained silent, his face so gloomy it was almost dripping with water.
These things are not in the story at all!
Why did this change happen?
Yu Wanwan seemed to be deep in thought. The more she listened, the more familiar this thing seemed.
It is the means by which all things come into being.
Daoguo, unusually, didn't banter with her and was unusually serious.
Yu Wanwan was stunned for a moment, and then finally remembered where she had seen this thing before.
From the very beginning, she knew that such a lucrative opportunity would inevitably attract the attention of those outsiders.
But they arrived much earlier than she had expected.
[I didn't expect that the first one to arrive would be the creature of all things; you're in big trouble now!]
Yu Wanwan's eyebrows drooped, looking somewhat resigned to her fate.
All things come into being.
Those evil cultivators, like leeches, cultivate by plundering the world's origin and fortune.
This is really a big problem.
Based on her understanding of them, this group of evil cultivators was extremely shameless. They rarely took action themselves, instead using various sinister methods to cast a wide net across different worlds.
They only care about destruction and have no regard for the consequences.
For them, with so many worlds in the myriad realms, casting a wide net, there's bound to be one that succeeds.
As long as one succeeds, they make a profit; they don't need to keep an eye on it.
It's disgusting and incredibly difficult to deal with.
The method they're using in this world this time is probably those insects.
Pressing her brow, Yu Wanwan let out a heavy sigh.
Why is my life so miserable!
Noticing her unusual behavior, Xu Qingzhou looked down at her and patted her head.
"What's wrong?"
