Chapter 5: Unintentional Strategy



Bai Tiantian found a cat while collecting supplies. In order to save the cat, she opened the door and released a zombie. The situation was critical. In order to save her from the zombie, Cheng Rui shot.

Who knew that the empty shopping mall would suddenly be filled with so many zombies because of the gunshots, blocking the exit of the supermarket and forcing them to flee in another direction.

Everyone closed the passage door and walked down quickly, hoping that there weren't many zombies in the underground parking lot and that they could successfully storm out.

"Hoho--" The roar of zombies came, continuously hitting the locked door.

"Cheng Rui, Xiao Yang, you two take them away first!" Fu Chen ordered decisively.

Two men, holding a woman's hand each, walked quickly out of the emergency exit door and into the parking lot.

There were also zombies in the parking lot, surrounding them from all directions, roaring and trying to bite people. Bai Tiantian couldn't help but scream in fear, "Don't come over here!"

Cheng Rui frowned slightly. While he was fighting the zombies, he also had to protect Bai Tiantian. Her screams attracted a few more zombies.

Bai Tiantian was well protected after experiencing the apocalypse and had almost never faced the scene of being besieged by zombies. This horrific situation frightened her so much that her legs went weak.

Xiao Yang and Bai Qingqing's situation was much better. Not only did she not scream, she also took out a sharp Tang sword from the space, held it in her hand, and calmly chopped off a zombie's head.

The first time Bai Qingqing killed a zombie, she felt like vomiting the moment she split open its head.

Fu Chen jumped down from the second floor, stretched out his hand and swung out a bolt of lightning, blasting away the surrounding zombies, and led a few people towards the exit.

The parking lot is on the second underground floor, and they have to go up one floor before they can successfully get outside the shopping mall.

The zombies behind were roaring horribly and chasing after them. The zombies on the first floor also heard the noise and came out from their hiding places to bite them.

The Thunder Squad has been chased by zombies before, but this is the first time they have faced such a tricky situation. There are too many zombies, and Cheng Rui and Xiao Yang have run out of bullets in their guns, so they have to use their superpowers.

Fortunately, the parking lot was spacious enough and there was enough space to use supernatural powers. Xiao Yang's wood-based supernatural powers entangled the zombies, while Fu Chen and Cheng Rui cooperated to use lightning and fire-based supernatural powers to burn the zombies to death.

"Cheng Rui, my legs are weak..." Bai Tiantian supported Cheng Rui's arm.

At this moment, Bai Qingqing keenly sensed an unknown aura. She turned around, raised her Tang sword and stood in front of Cheng Rui who was entangled by Bai Tiantian.

"Swish" the friction between the blade and the sharp claws emitted sparks, and she was hit hard and flew out, hitting the wall, spitting out blood.

"Bai Qingqing!"

Cheng Rui reacted quickly, stretched out his hand and swung out a flame to entangle the black shadow that attacked again, forcing the black shadow to retreat more than ten meters away.

Fu Chen walked over to Bai Qingqing, lifted her up and held her in his arms. His eyes were sharp and cold as he said, "It's a third-level zombie."

It is the early days of the apocalypse, and most zombies are low-level monsters without intelligence. If the mutants can level up, it means that the zombies can too. Among hundreds or thousands of zombies, one or two will be promoted to high-level zombies.

I didn’t expect that a third-level zombie would appear in such a place!

The zombie not far away was in human form, taller than an ordinary person, with a horribly rotten head, sunken eyes of a weird dark green, a mouth gaping wide open almost to the ears, revealing sharp fangs stained with blood and other dirty liquids, and a strong stench filled the air.

Level 3 zombies have the same survival instinct as animals, hunting. They not only kill zombies and swallow their crystal cores, but also hunt humans for food, treating them as prey.

Bai Qingqing was injured while saving Cheng Rui. She felt so much pain all over her body that she almost fainted.

During the stalemate, the third-level zombies could attack at any time, so everyone was on high alert and dared not be distracted for even a moment.

Bai Tiantian's whole body was stiff with fear, and she stood there in despair.

Fu Chen is now a fourth-level psychic, while Cheng Rui and Xiao Yang are both third-level. Although they have a chance of winning against third-level zombies, they dare not take it lightly.

Fu Chen handed the injured Bai Qingqing to Xiao Yang and said, "I'll hold it back, you guys go first."

"Yes, Captain."

Xiao Yang carried Bai Qingqing on his back, while Cheng Rui roughly lifted up Bai Tiantian, preparing to launch a surprise attack under the protection of Fu Chen.

The third-level zombies do not yet possess advanced intelligence and will only attack based on instinct. Fu Chen is as agile as a black panther and can attack at high speed with a few bolts of lightning.

The zombie was struck by lightning and let out a terrible roar. It kicked the ground with its legs and rushed towards Fu Chen like an angry beast.

Fu Chen had the experience of dealing with high-level zombies in his previous life, so he was not afraid of the zombies' attack at all. He nimbly dodged the monster's attack. Then several lightning bolts struck him and directly split the zombie's head. With a bang, the third-level zombie fell to the ground.

He picked up the crystal core of the third-level zombie, quickly returned to the ground, got into the modified car, and immediately asked about Bai Qingqing's condition.

Shen Mingxuan was driving in the front with a sullen face, while everyone else was in the living room.

Bai Qingqing lay on the sofa, her face pale, her brows wrinkled in pain, complaining in her heart that if it wasn't for the mission, she wouldn't have suffered this.

Bai Tiantian sat aside, covering her face and sobbing, but no one gathered around to comfort her as usual.

Xiao Yang looked at Bai Qingqing with worry. Cheng Rui's facial features were cold and sullen, and he felt an indescribable complexity in his heart.

Liang Zhiyu was a doctor before the end of the world. He squatted in front of the sofa, looked at Bai Qingqing and asked, "Where does it hurt? Can I help you check the wound?"

Bai Qingqing couldn't tell where she was injured, she just felt pain all over, and she felt extremely embarrassed being stared at by so many people.

Fu Chen saw that she looked in unbearable pain and ordered directly: "You help her check, and the others do their own things."

Liang Zhiyu was gentle, reached out and carefully held her arm, pressing it gently: "Is it here?"

Bai Qingqing was not surrounded by people, and Liang Zhiyu gave people a deep sense of trust, so she relaxed her body and couldn't help but said, "Be gentle."

Liang Zhiyu knew that she was injured for saving Cheng Rui, so he was moved. His attitude was much gentler than usual, and he asked patiently, "Don't worry, I'm just checking on you. Is there any other pain?"

Bai Qingqing talked to him for a few minutes and then closed her eyes. Liang Zhiyu was indeed a specialist doctor and he quickly found out where she was injured.

"How is it?" Fu Chen came over and asked.

Liang Zhiyu said: "My left arm is broken and needs to be straightened."

Bai Qingqing's face turned pale, and she thought to herself that she was unlucky. She had no time to think at that time, and she rushed over when she sensed that there was a crisis.

"Let me do it." Fu Chen said.

Liang Zhiyu nodded and prepared to go to Bai Tiantian to ask for medical supplies. Bai Qingqing's injuries would require injections and medication for a few days.

Fu Chen lowered his eyes and looked at the girl whose delicate eyebrows were filled with pain, and said, "Just bear with it."

Bai Qingqing didn't know if it was an illusion, but she heard a hint of tenderness in his tone and nodded gently. It would hurt sooner or later, so it would be better to straighten the bone quickly so that it wouldn't hurt all the time.

Fu Chen held her slender arm and asked, "What supplies did you collect in the supermarket? Did you get any candy?"

Bai Qingqing's attention was distracted, and she was trying to recall whether she had taken any candy or not. Suddenly, she felt a sharp pain in her arm, and the bone seemed to have been healed with a snap.

"Brother, you broke the rules." She couldn't help but accuse him, "I haven't thought it through yet."

Fu Chen looked at her with deep eyes: "Did you get the candy?"

Bai Qingqing took the candies, of course, and took half of the delicious candies on the entire candy shelf. Now the space was messy and crowded with all kinds of supplies.

"Yes."

Fu Chen said, "Give me a bag of candy."

"What kind of candy?" As she said this, she took out a bag of hard candy and White Rabbit milk candy from the space.

Fu Chen opened the package, peeled a candy and fed it to her, "Open your mouth."

Bai Qingqing held the candy in her mouth in surprise. The sweet taste swept over her taste buds, and even the pain in her body seemed to be dispelled a lot.

Fu Chen knew how to coax people. She narrowed her eyes and smiled softly: "Thank you, brother. That's so sweet."

Fu Chen picked her up and carried her to the bedroom to rest, and said, "Rest well and don't move. Liang Zhiyu will come over to treat you later."

"Okay, brother."

The Thunder Squad originally planned to stay in Jiangcheng for three days, first looting the supermarket and then sweeping the grain warehouse, weapons warehouse, hospital and pharmacy. Unexpectedly, an accident occurred and Bai Qingqing was injured.

However, her injury did not affect her schedule much.

The team found a five-star hotel. Fu Chen, Shen Mingxuan and Cheng Rui went to clean up the place. Everyone moved into the presidential suite. After a fight, they were all packing their things.

Bai Qingqing occupied a room alone and lay comfortably on the bed to rest. Bored, she took out a notebook from the space and drew on it with her uninjured left hand.

After a while, Fu Chen came in and said, "It's time to eat."

Bai Qingqing put away the unfinished painting, got out of bed, put on her shoes, and went out with him.

The team gathered in the restaurant and saw Fu Chen pulling out a chair for her and serving her rice, just like a brother taking care of his sister. Everyone had different expressions.

Bai Tiantian bit her lip and ate in silence. Shen Mingxuan saw everything and a chill flashed in his peach blossom eyes.

After dinner, everyone rested in the living room.

Bai Qingqing was a little thirsty, so she got up and went to the kitchen to get some water. Fu Chen went to take a shower, and her left hand was not very convenient for pouring water, so she was wondering what to do.

A glass of water was handed to her.

Bai Qingqing looked up and saw Cheng Rui, who was wearing camouflage uniform, standing in front of her. He said, "Drink."

"Thank you." Bai Qingqing took the cup and drank the water in small sips.

Cheng Rui said in a low voice: "Thank you for saving me."

Bai Qingqing didn't expect that he would come all the way to thank her. Her bright eyes were clear as she said, "You're welcome. We are companions. That's what I should do."

When Cheng Rui heard her say this, he felt a little more favorable towards her.

At this time, there was a sneer, "Cheng Rui, don't be fooled by this woman. She is deliberately trying to deceive you."

Bai Qingqing gritted her teeth secretly, wishing she could go over and hit Shen Mingxuan with a hammer. Why was he so upset?

Cheng Rui said: "Shen Mingxuan, have you forgotten what the captain said?"

Shen Mingxuan was very upset. How come one or two of them were easily deceived by Bai Qingqing? Damn woman!

Bai Qingqing turned around and looked at Shen Mingxuan, and asked seriously: "Have I ever offended you?"

She seemed to be thinking: "Because of your appearance, I accidentally mistook you for a woman, and you are resentful, so you keep targeting me?"

Shen Mingxuan's face suddenly turned ugly.
