Chapter 97 A Wonderful Misunderstanding (Two in One)

"Level 4?!"

As soon as Yan Mo's words came out, Lan Jingming couldn't help but let out a low cry.

"Are you sure it's the fourth level?" Xiao Lou asked with a frown, his face looking a little heavy.

Yan Mo did not answer Xiao Lou's question.

Shu Xin felt that Xiao Lou's question was nonsense. If Yan Mo was not sure, why would he say it?

After saying this, Xiao Lou regretted it.

Even after a short period of contact, Hsiao Lou was able to tell that Yan Mo was the kind of person who would never speak without thinking.

"I'm sorry, I spoke out of turn."

"It's okay. Let's first think about how to deal with that fourth-level zombie."

Yan Mo didn't take what Xiao Lou said to heart.

Compared to arguing with the other party about harmless matters, the fourth-level zombie not far away is more worthy of his attention.

"Level 4 zombies are indeed more difficult for us to deal with. We need to plan carefully."

Xiao Lou looked towards the place where the fourth-level zombies were hiding. Fortunately, he had broken through to the third level some time ago, otherwise he would have chosen to go home after completing this mission.

Every time a level is crossed, the strength of both the psychics and the zombies will be qualitatively improved.

If he still stayed at the second level, facing the fourth level zombies, there was no need to think about it, it would be a sheer act of giving himself away.

That is to say, he is now at the third level. Although we don’t know the true strength of the three men in Ye Yu’an and Yan Mo’s team, they will definitely not be lower than the third level.

Five third-level psychics, with other psychics assisting them, have a 60% chance of winning against fourth-level zombies.

"Captain Yan, I will need the full cooperation of everyone in your team later." Xiao Lou raised his eyes and looked at Yan Mo opposite him.

"Well, since we have agreed to cooperate, we will naturally do our best. Xiang Wen, Qi Mai and I will cooperate with your plan later."

Yan Mo never mentioned Shu Xin in his words, which clearly meant that Shu Xin was not within the purview of Xiao Lou.

"Okay, I feel relieved when you say that."

Shu Xin did not use her real superpowers along the way, so Xiao Lou naturally thought that as a space-based superpower user, Shu Xin could not be of much help, so he could understand why Yan Mo did not mention Shu Xin.

Thinking that Xiao Lou understood what he meant and had no intention of making arrangements to comfort him, the smile on Yan Mo's face became much more genuine.

The two people's train of thought were totally inconsistent, yet they strangely reached a consensus. I have to say, this was a wonderful misunderstanding.

Hearing that there was no work arranged for her, Shuxin, who was listening beside Yan Mo, moved her lips, learned from the last lesson, and did not ask any questions.

Having listened to Xiao Lou and Yan Mo discussing the plan to deal with the fourth-level zombies, Shu Xin only wanted to ask: Who am I? Where am I? What are they talking about?

She can clearly understand each word, so why can't she understand the combined meaning?

Shu Xin really dislikes people like them who are so intelligent. They never finish what they say and always like to say half and leave the other half.

Shit! You guys are communicating with each other without any obstacles, but have you ever considered the feelings of the people who are listening to you?

I am in a state where I listen but it seems like I didn’t listen, I participate but it seems like I didn’t participate!

I'm so angry!

Shuxin remained in an angry state until they returned to their own car.

"Xinbao, what's wrong? Are you sulking because I didn't assign you any tasks?"

Yan Mo bent slightly so that his eye level was level with Shu Xin, so that Shu Xin could see his eyes without having to look up.

"Well, and I don't quite understand what you just said..."

Staring into Yan Mo's dark eyes, Shu Xin felt like a deflated ball. She had lost all her temper and was too embarrassed to speak out her true thoughts.

"Heh~Xinbao, how can you be so cute? So cute that we want to hide you. Let Xiaobai take you to the sky later. The view up there will be wider, so it will be convenient for you to help us observe the surrounding situation. It will also be difficult for you to be discovered when you use your special powers."

Yan Mo chuckled, kissed Shu Xin's lips, and told her about his arrangements.

"Okay, I understand. You must be careful."

Shuxin nodded, accepted Yan Mo's arrangement for herself, and climbed onto Xiaobai's back.

After receiving his owner's call, Xiaobai happily flew into the sky and took his owner for a ride.

Xiaobai can feel that every time he takes his owner to fly, his owner is always in a good mood. He wants to make his owner happy and is happy to take his owner for a ride.

"Wow!!! That white tiger actually has wings! And it can fly!" Lan Jingming made an ignorant sound, and there was surprise in the eyes of the others. This was the first flying mutant animal they had ever seen.

Only Ye Yu'an, who had lived two lifetimes in the apocalypse, had a relatively calm look in his eyes; he just glanced a few more times.

Ye Yu'an had never seen a flying mutant animal in her previous life, but she had heard about it from other people in the base, so she did not show any surprise.

As soon as Shu Xin and his friends entered the area within a hundred meters around the underground air-raid shelter, the zombies that had originally surrounded the air-raid shelter turned around and rushed towards them.

Xiao Lou threw the lightning ball in his hand towards the location of the fourth-level zombie, while the others dealt with the group of zombies that were rushing over.

The pile of rubble that originally blocked the fourth-level zombies was blown open, revealing the charred, smoking ground underneath, but there was no sign of any zombies.

"In front!" Yan Mo's mental power had been locked on the fourth-level zombie, and he immediately noticed the change in the fourth-level zombie's position.

The fourth-level zombie stood above the entrance of the air-raid shelter, and everyone finally saw the full appearance of the fourth-level zombie.

His clothes were tattered, and his arms hung unnaturally on both sides of his body, appearing to be longer than the arms of other zombies. His dark purple lips were stained with fresh blood, and he was still chewing something in his mouth.

“Hiss—ha—”

They appeared on its territory and attacked it. Apparently it felt provoked and let out an unpleasant roar in their direction.

The flesh and blood that was not completely swallowed by it fell out of its mouth as it opened its mouth and roared, looking extremely disgusting.

"Hey~ Why is it so careless? Who taught it to talk while eating?!"

Shu Xin was disgusted by the scene just now. She rubbed the goose bumps on her arms and said with disgust.

Fortunately, the zombie can't understand human speech now, otherwise if it heard Shuxin dislike it, it would definitely list her as the first target to be killed.

The zombies couldn't understand, but Yan Mo and the others could. Shu Xin's voice was neither loud nor soft. Xiaobai was flying at a relatively low position, so every word she said was heard by everyone below.

The corners of everyone's mouth couldn't help but twitch collectively, only Yan Mo smiled indulgently.

The zombies around them attacked them more fiercely. It seemed that the fourth-level zombies had issued some kind of instructions to them.

Who could have thought that in just over half a year since the apocalypse, zombies had already advanced to level four and they would encounter them.

Xiaobai took Shuxin and flew directly into the air, dodging the zombies that were attacking them, leaving the zombies that were besieging Shuxin empty-handed.

Xiao Lou and Yan Mo shuttled through the zombie swarm and headed straight for the fourth-level zombies. The others released their own special abilities to deal with the zombies.

Inside the underground air raid shelter

"Yuanzheng, how many days have passed since the distress message was sent?"

Liang Pei sat paralyzed on the ground, leaning weakly against the cement wall. She had not drunk water for a long time, causing her lips to crack and chapped, and her voice was unusually dry.

"Professor, it's probably been sent out three or four days ago." A man who looked younger answered.

"Yuanzheng, I'm afraid I won't be able to hold on until the rescue team arrives. Ya County may have to be handed over to you to take care of. Can you agree to this request from an old man like me? Ahem…"

Liang Bei coughed weakly, as if explaining her final wishes.

"Grandpa! You will definitely be able to hold on and get to the rescue team, don't talk nonsense!" Liang Yajun had tears in her eyes, unwilling to hear her grandpa say these words.

Liang Bei ignored Liang Yajun and looked at Ning Yuanzheng stubbornly, wanting an answer.

"Professor Liang, I can only promise you to try your best to take her out. I can't guarantee anything else." Ning Zhengyuan sighed and chose to back down under Liang Bei's gaze.

In fact, Ning Yuanzheng was not willing to agree to Liang Bei's request.

He and Liang Bei were not that familiar with each other. They had not had much contact at the research institute, but they became close after the apocalypse because of their escape.

Moreover, during the escape, Liang Yajun behaved extremely coquettishly. No matter what situation she encountered, she would scream at every turn. The other people who escaped with them all paid the price with their lives because of her.

But the person who caused the trouble is still alive and well. Sometimes fate is so unfair.

Ning Zhengyuan saw with his own eyes that when she encountered danger, she personally pushed away the person who had always protected her, and he hated Liang Yajun from the bottom of his heart.

I don't know how Liang Bei had the nerve to entrust Liang Yajun to him even though she knew what kind of person Liang Yajun was.

"Alas, Zhengyuan, Yajun is still young, and she's a girl, so she's bound to be a little timid. She definitely didn't do it on purpose. Can't you forgive her previous behavior and agree to my dying wish for the sake of an old man like me who's dying?"

Liang Bei sighed when she didn't hear the answer she wanted, and spoke again, trying to kidnap Ning Zhengyuan with morality.

"I'm sorry, the best I can do is what I just said. Professor Liang should talk less and use the time to conserve his energy."

Faced with Liang Bei's moral kidnapping, Ning Zhengyuan would never give in.

Liang Yajun, who was listening at the side, could sense Ning Zhengyuan's unwillingness. She bit her lips with her teeth and a hint of resentment flashed across her eyes.

She had never been despised like this before, and had been beaten since she was a child. Because she was beautiful and had a good family background, all the boys around her flattered her and obeyed her. She never expected that she would fall in front of this man who had a handsome appearance at best.

Liang Bei saw Ning Zhengyuan's determination and shut her mouth in disappointment.

Along the way, he had already noticed Ning Zhengyuan.

Ning Zhengyuan is a very principled person with a strong sense of responsibility. He has also awakened his supernatural powers. He thought that if he really couldn't wait for the rescue team, he would entrust his granddaughter to him. As long as Ning Zhengyuan agreed to him, according to Ning Zhengyuan's character, he would definitely take responsibility for Yajun to the end.

He had found a way out for Yajun in the end times, but he didn't expect Ning Zhengyuan would simply refuse to accept his request, making his wish come to nothing.

Silence spread in the darkness, and only the sound of light breathing remained in the air-raid shelter.

Outside, Yan Mo, Xiao Lou and his group were fighting fiercely with the zombies.

That fourth-level zombie actually had a speed-related ability and was extremely fast, causing most of Yan Mo and Xiao Lou's attacks to miss, and occasionally causing trouble for others.

The fourth-level zombies are more difficult to deal with than they imagined.

Xiaobai is taking Shuxin to the sky. Shuxin's ability has little offensive power, but Shuxin is not idle either. He holds a gun in his hand and cleans up the zombies below.

Because she was at a high place with a wide field of vision, if anyone missed a zombie, Shuxin would immediately notice it and shoot it again, giving the people below a strong sense of security.

Seeing Yan Mo and Xiao Lou struggling to chase the speed zombie, Shu Xin became anxious. She activated her supernatural power and "Fulfilling Wish" appeared in the palm of her right hand, trying to use a restriction circle to help them.

Unfortunately, the fourth-order speed is the speed of zombies, which is not something Shuxin can see clearly with the naked eye. If he can't see it clearly, he naturally can't predict the opponent's route, and the immobilization effect of the restriction circle can't play a role.

Shu Xin had no choice but to secretly use "Fulfilling Wishes" to put a protection circle on each of her three family members, Yan Mo, Fu Xiangwen and Mu Qimai.

The three people who were often in Shuxin's protection circle did not show any flaws when they felt the familiar supernatural power fluctuations, and their expressions did not change at all. They faced the zombies as usual.

The few people standing close to them all felt a strange wave of supernatural power at that moment, and thought it was hidden among the zombies. The other zombies with supernatural powers immediately became nervous.

After waiting for a long time, I didn't feel the fluctuation of that strange power again.

Are they too nervous and are they afraid of everything?

Shuxin's protective circle is transparent and only effective against zombies. Other people cannot feel it when they touch it. This is why Shuxin dares to add a protective circle to several people.

With a comfortable circle of protection, Yan Mo and the other two felt more relaxed when they started fighting.

Everyone else was busy dealing with the zombies that kept coming up, and they didn't notice that the zombies that had just been attacking indiscriminately didn't actively attack Mi Xiangwen and Maki Mai at first, as if they were ignoring them both.

Shu Xin did not give up on restricting the fourth-level zombies and placed a restriction circle with a radius of ten meters within the combat range of Yan Mo and the others.

Yan Mo and Xiao Lou, who were fighting against the fourth-level zombies, clearly felt that the opponent's speed suddenly slowed down.

When Yan Mo felt the protective circle on his body just now, he already knew that Shu Xin had started to use her supernatural powers, and he did not show any abnormality about the zombies' slowing down.

"Do you feel that its speed seems to have suddenly slowed down?" Xiao Lou asked Yan Mo for confirmation.
