Chapter 26 Zombie World 5
Chapter Twenty-Six
Finally, they found an empty house, a hotel room right next to this roof. It was empty, so Lin Xia jumped in through the window, locked the window, drew the curtains, and secured the door.
I used my mental energy to probe around and found that there were only suitcases and no one in the rooms on both sides. They were probably either going to job interviews or going out for fun.
She relaxed, quickly took off her outer clothes, and threw them out the window onto the roof of the neighboring house.
Lin Xia cooked instant noodles as usual, then opened Baidu on her phone to look up information about mental power, including novels, which she could use as a reference.
All sorts of functions, like illusions and mind control—goodness, that's incredibly difficult! She didn't even know where to begin, let alone try it.
But one theory caught her attention: mental weakness. Of course, this was all just speculation from netizens, but it didn't stop it from giving Lin Xia inspiration.
What effect would it have if she attached her spiritual energy to her body? She might try it tomorrow.
Nothing happened that night, but Lin Xia didn't sleep very well. The zombies seemed to be more active at night, and screams could often be heard in the quiet night sky.
Early the next morning, Lin Xia had already practiced the [Fighting Techniques] once. She wiped the sweat from her face, poured out some water, washed her face and body, and then changed into a new windbreaker.
Then I looked at the information online and realized that the zombie news had been leaked and many people knew about it.
People online are clamoring that if they can't solve the zombie problem, they should solve the problems in S and L cities, especially the XX Group.
Lin Xia dared not gamble on the importance of those experts and professors; she had to save herself!
When they left, they packed the mattress, blankets, pillows, towels, and bath towels into the space, and even squeezed in a chair.
The incident occurred during the day. It was chaotic outside, with zombies everywhere. There wasn't even a road that cars could pass through, and electric bikes and bicycles were scattered all over the streets, so people could only get around on foot.
Lin Xia packed her things, climbed out the window, and looked at the situation outside. There were only two or three zombies on the entire road below her.
This is a good opportunity to test her idea from last night. Lin Xia covered her entire body with her mental energy and then lightly jumped off the roof.
She took a step forward, deliberately making a little noise. Sure enough, the zombie was attracted. It looked at Lin Xia, turned around, and walked over.
Lin Xia moved to the side, and the zombie just went in the direction it had been. Just as it was about to pass Lin Xia, a figure suddenly darted out, swiftly slashed off the zombie's head, and then killed another zombie that had been attracted there before turning to look at Lin Xia.
Lin Xia could see his appearance clearly. He was very tall. Lin Xia was 167 cm tall, and this person was at least a head taller than her. He looked to be over 190 cm tall and had a strong build.
Judging from how easily he slashed zombies, he was powerful and agile, so his mental strength was probably not low either. And that knife was also very good.
His hair was messy, he wore a black windbreaker, stood tall, and had a calm and sharp gaze.
He grabbed Lin Xia and ran. Lin Xia looked at his hand; the pistol was in his palm. They went straight into the hotel room, closed the door, and made sure no zombies were chasing them before he frowned and said, "You! There's a zombie right in your face, and you're too scared to shoot? Can't you dodge?"
After closing the door and turning around, he saw Lin Xia pointing a gun at him. He was stunned for a moment, then immediately put the knife behind his back: "I didn't mean any harm. I thought you were scared out of your wits, that's why I attacked you."
Seeing the long sword on her back, Lin Xia prepared a backup.
[Backup successful: Backup weapon - Sharp longsword (forged by a metal-type ability user), requires 80 survival points]
Lin Xia, a metal-type ability user, put down her gun. This was a standard room, with only a backpack on the bed, indicating that he meant no harm. Lin Xia glanced at the knife with pity.
"Hello, my name is Xie Cheng." Xie Cheng stood there, smiled, and looked much clearer.
"I'm Sanqi. You've always been so enthusiastic?"
"No, not really. There are fewer zombies outside, so I only went out when I was confident in my abilities," Xie Cheng shook his head.
"Are you a soldier?"
"yes."
Have you been able to contact your comrades?
Xie Cheng nodded, looking at Lin Xia with a puzzled expression. Lin Xia thought for a moment and asked, "Does anyone know where the people who didn't participate in the game are?"
Xie Cheng frowned and shook his head: "Nobody I know knows. Wait, Sanqi? The owner of the Sanqi shop?"
Lin Xia wasn't too disappointed. She just thought there were a lot of people with her and asked casually. When she heard his question, she was taken aback for a moment, then nodded. She was still a little unaccustomed to her new identity.
It seems this identity can't be revealed casually; let's change it again.
"Are you leaving S City? We can go together," Xie Cheng invited.
Lin Xia nodded and then shook her head: "I'm still more used to being alone."
Xie Cheng scratched his head, a little embarrassed: "Shopkeeper, how about we become friends? If we get a superpower awakening card, can we trade with you?"
Lin Xia nodded: "You can exchange any props you have with me."
"Shop owner, can all the items you post be continuously exchanged?" Xie Cheng asked incredulously.
"Yes, it will continue to be updated." Lin Xia nodded, fiddling with her pistol.
Xie Cheng excitedly took a step forward, then quickly stopped and opened his panel: "Shop owner, please add me. Your friend request is closed."
Lin Xia saw that his game name was Xie Cheng, and after adding him as a friend, Lin Xia heard him.
[Ding! A friend has appeared within 50 meters.]
Seeing this notification, Lin Xia realized that this feature existed, and it seemed that she couldn't add friends randomly anymore.
"Let's go, you should leave too." Lin Xia waved her hand. Xie Cheng was too poor, but he had a lot of people behind him, and he might become a big client in the future.
Xie Cheng watched Lin Xia walk away and secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He knew he couldn't just rescue people recklessly in the future. It was a pity he didn't have any other tools on him, but at least he had added her as a friend. He packed his things and set off immediately.
Lin Xia found the right direction and moved forward quickly. A long knife appeared in her hand. She brandished it and found it to be very sharp. Finally, she saw the entrance to the highway. There were quite a few zombies here, but fewer than in the city.
On the road, car accidents were horrific. Zombies trapped inside the cars howled, while survivors weakly stared at people outside the car windows, their eyes devoid of life. The injuries from the car accidents meant there was nowhere to seek help once they were out.
Everyone walked on in silence. When they saw someone banging on the window for help, Lin Xia went over and slashed open the car door with a knife. Before anyone could get out, she turned and left.
There were more and more people on the road. The highway was flanked by fields and mountains, so there were fewer people and it was easier to walk.
Lin Xia extended her mental energy, approached the crowd, scanned them with her mental energy, and then left. She actually managed to back up some things.
Lin Xia complained that the items this game releases are getting more and more interesting.
