"Yes, of course." The round-faced man looked at the girl in front of him with a trembling body, begging for mercy: "As long as you spare my life, I will agree to any condition."
The members of the Zhongzhou team were not regular soldiers. They just awakened their special powers after the end of the world and joined the team in order to live in the safe zone.
Just now, Shen Mingxuan brutally killed his two teammates. It was simply the nightmare of his life. No one is not greedy for life and afraid of death. As long as he is alive, he is willing to do anything.
Bai Qingqing saw that the other party was so scared that he peed his buttocks. A look of disgust flashed in her eyes, and she said, "Where are you going on this mission? Yicheng?"
The round-faced man couldn't figure out what she was thinking, so he told her the truth: "It was Yicheng." Beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, and he said with a pale face: "The leader ordered us to go to Yicheng to find someone."
Bai Qingqing narrowed her eyes and said thoughtfully, "Looking for someone? What kind of person?"
The city of death is full of zombies, and the leader of the base sends a superpower to look for people. This is a bit strange.
The round-faced man glanced at the expressionless Shen Mingxuan and replied, "I heard it was a virus researcher named Li Jin."
Bai Qingqing's eyes darkened slightly. Hearing what he said, she knew that Yaoyang Base had spies from other base leaders. She then asked, "What do you want to find him for?"
"I don't know." The round-faced man lowered his head and said, "Looking for a virologist is nothing more than studying the zombie virus. Half a year has passed, and most humans have turned into zombies. How can they develop an antidote?"
Bai Qingqing could not deny it. The original book only described that several members of the team were killed in the trap set by the Zombie King, and that was it. It was not clear what happened to Bai Tiantian afterwards, or whether the world returned to its original state.
Li Jin, the author of the original book, died early, so the virus probably wasn’t really researched.
Li Jin is a hot commodity, and every base is eyeing her covetously. Her branch quest is still waiting to be completed, so she should catch up with the Thunder Squad as soon as possible.
Suddenly, a silver light flashed towards her. At the critical moment, a hand blocked her way. At the same time, the round-faced man kneeling on the ground screamed, covering his head with half of his face cut off and screaming.
Zombie Shen pulled out the dagger that pierced his palm expressionlessly. His unusual blood dripped along the blade. His silver-gray eyes stared grimly at the man rolling on the ground.
To kill or not to kill is just a matter of Bai Qingqing's words.
"Fuck you! It hurts so much!" The round-faced man cursed and begged for mercy, "Don't kill me, don't kill me..."
Bai Qingqing looked at him coldly and said with her red lips: "Kill him!"
The round-faced man covered his face and fought desperately, swinging the steel blade in his hand towards Bai Qingqing and Shen Zombie. However, as soon as he moved, his head fell to the ground, and the steel blade in the air also fell down with a crackling sound.
Bai Qingqing glanced at the living room with disdain and ordered, "Deal with them, and we'll move to another place."
Shen Mingxuan dug out the crystal cores one by one swiftly, and followed her out of the house that smelled strongly of blood. Not long after they moved to the new place, zombies appeared from nowhere, broke in, roaring and biting the corpses.
Bai Qingqing took out water and detergent to clean Shen's corpse. She watched him rinse his hands and the crystal core clean. She stared at his hand that had just been pierced by the dagger. The pale hand with distinct joints was intact, leaving only a scar.
High-level zombies are stronger than humans and have extremely abnormal recovery abilities. He is obviously about to reach that standard.
"Roar." Zombie Shen held the crystal core in front of her.
Bai Qingqing shook her head: "I don't want to eat."
She was thinking about how to plan for tomorrow. They would soon be approaching the City of Death. If nothing unexpected happened, she would meet up with the Thunder Squad. Before that, she had to deal with her relationship with Shen Mingxuan.
Shen Mingxuan turned into a zombie. Even though he had some rationality, he still had the blood of a beast in his bones.
Even though Shen Mingxuan was their teammate before, now Shen Mingxuan has a different identity and stance from them, and the people in the team will not accept being with a zombie alien.
Even worse, they might kill Shen Mingxuan.
Shen Zombie didn't understand why she didn't accept it. Didn't she like these shiny crystal cores the most? Eating the crystal cores could level up, so he wanted to give them all to her.
"Roar~" His beautiful silver-gray pupils stared at her. Even though she was not of the same kind as him, he wanted to be with her forever.
"You eat it." Bai Qingqing pushed his hand away and said, "This belongs to you."
Shen the Zombie was unhappy because she didn't accept his crystal core. He took the crystal core to the side and chewed it hard.
Bai Qingqing looked at his tall and slender figure, but in her heart she was thinking about how to separate from him.
After he eats these crystal cores, he should be able to upgrade to the fifth level. It takes just over half a month to reach the fifth level, which is an abnormal speed. By the time he reaches the fifth level, he should have recovered some of his wisdom.
The zombie will retain the memory of being with her when it becomes intelligent. Even if she leaves him, the progress of the strategy will be further when he upgrades and recovers his memory.
Perhaps she had made up her mind and was about to leave. Bai Qingqing was in a soft mood for once. She took out a piece of gauze from the space and said to him, "Come here."
Shen Zombie came over and heard her habitual command: "Squat down."
Bai Qingqing asked him to stretch out his hand, and Shen Zombie looked at her vigilantly to see if she had taken the scissors. He could still remember clearly how she had cut all his nails a few days ago.
"Stretch out your hand." Bai Qingqing ordered again.
Shen Zombie obediently stretched out his hand. She was speechless: "It's not the right hand, it's the left hand."
He changed his hand, revealing the one with the scar on the palm. She lowered her brows, applied some ointment on him, wrapped him up with gauze, wrapped it around and around, and tied a bow maliciously.
Shen Zombie looked at her, then at his hands wrapped in gauze. Although it was very uncomfortable, he inexplicably liked it.
The next day.
Bai Qingqing drove quickly and arrived at another town at noon, only a hundred kilometers away from Yicheng, the city of death.
"Qing, Qing." A slightly hoarse and unpleasant voice came.
Bai Qingqing turned her head and saw Zombie Shen who had caught a black cat from somewhere. When she was resting, he was assigned to clean up the zombies, and he actually caught a pet in the middle of the process.
After eating the high-level crystal core, the zombie Shen really reached the fifth level overnight. She tried to teach him to speak, and he was like a child learning to speak, and could say a few simple words like the two intelligent zombies before.
The black cat was small and cute, with eyes like emerald green gems, and it stayed obediently in his hands.
Bai Qingqing subconsciously started to identify that the second-level mutant animal was highly aggressive and extremely dangerous to ordinary people.
Shen Zombie held the cat in his hands and walked up to her, saying, "Here, you are."
After Bai Qingqing's ability to control animals and plants was upgraded, these mutated animals and plants became little treasures to her. She took the black cat, and it stayed obediently in her arms and rubbed her chest.
The zombie Shen stared at the black cat with her silver-gray pupils, revealing an unhappy look, which scared the cat so much that it kept crawling into her arms.
He suddenly wanted to throw the cat out. He wanted to please Qingqing, but he didn't like this bastard being intimate with her. He showed his sharp fangs and made a threatening sound.
Bai Qingqing saw him threatening the kitten and kicked him: "What are you doing? Didn't you give this to me? Why are you being mean to it?"
Shen Zombie's pupils flickered with grievance, and he moved closer to her and said, "Yes."
Looking back, Shen Mingxuan was so arrogant and domineering that he didn't care about any woman. Yet, he has come to this day.
Bai Qingqing couldn't help but smile and ruffled his hair, saying, "Be good, go and clean up all the zombies."
Zombie Shen followed the order and prepared to go to the surrounding zombies. For some reason, he had a strange feeling in his heart, a panicked and weightless feeling. He turned around and glanced at the girl sitting on the front of the car.
The cute girl held the cat in her arms and raised its paws to wave to him. He turned his head away, pursed his lips unhappily, and when he came back he made sure to pretend that he had accidentally lost the cat.
Bai Qingqing looked at the man's receding back, the smile on her lips gradually disappeared, she stroked the black cat's head and whispered, "You stay and accompany him."
"Meow~" The black cat fell to the ground in an instant, and the SUV and the girl disappeared.
As Shen the Zombie was cleaning up the zombies, he became more and more panicked, and felt lost. In less than half an hour, he had cleaned up all the zombies in the town and rushed back to his original place.
When he hurried back to where the SUV was parked, his silver-gray pupils narrowed and he immediately turned his head to search around.
Qingqing is not here. Where did she go? Why did she suddenly disappear?
Shen the Zombie did not sense any trace of her. She disappeared without a trace. He searched the whole town but could not find her.
He raised his head to the sky and let out a roar, causing all living things in the surroundings to flee.
"Qing, Qing!" He uttered the word with difficulty and searched anxiously. The more he couldn't find her, the more anxious he became and he fell into a state of frenzy.
The dilapidated houses in the town were destroyed by him, and his silver-gray pupils turned scarlet. It was all his fault. It was his fault. Where did she go?
Bai Qingqing stayed in the space and saw him searching everywhere like a stray dog, broken, sad, and manic, searching non-stop as if he had gone mad.
"Qing, Qing." Shen Zangshi had been searching for the whole night, his body was in a terrible state, and his voice was cracked and hoarse: "Where is it?"
A black cat appeared out of nowhere and ran to his feet. He picked up the black cat and looked around with joy, but he didn't see any human figure.
She didn't even take the cat he gave her.
Shen Zombie only then realized that she had abandoned him.
"Qing, Qing." Shen Zombie made a difficult and pitiful sound, begging humbly: "Come out."
He will be good and obedient, and won't leave.
