The pungent stench clung to my face like a solid mass, making it hard to breathe without inhaling the scent of decay.
"Ugh..."
Zhong Dali covered his mouth, his face turning as green as a mutated zombie.
I shot him a disdainful glance. Who had the time to vomit in a moment like this?
The girl who had designed the trap stood not far away, her previously delicate and innocent demeanor replaced by an air of aloof indifference.
"Wei Na, you are indeed intriguing."
Her voice was hoarse, lacking the sweetness it once had, now carrying a chill instead.
"Liu Bingshuang."
She stated her name flatly, her gaze appraising me as if I were an item on display.
Liu Bingshuang? The name suited her well; she was as cold as ice.
"Wow! Liu Bingshuang!"
Zhong Dali suddenly perked up at the mention of her name, as if he had discovered a new continent.
He wiped his mouth and pointed at Liu Bingshuang, asking foolishly, "What... what did you eat? How can you make such a strange sound? Did you eat mutated chicken?"
Liu Bingshuang's expression darkened instantly.
Her already indifferent demeanor now seemed to be encased in a layer of ancient ice.
I almost burst out laughing.
Was Zhong Dali doing this on purpose? Or had his IQ really dropped to outer space?
“Zhong Dali, shut up.”
I said lightly, fearing he might say something astonishing that would infuriate Liu Bingshuang right here.
“But, brother, her voice is really strange!”
Zhong Dali looked at me with an innocent expression, as if he were asking an extremely profound question.
Liu Bingshuang took a deep breath, seemingly trying to control her anger.
She turned to me, her gaze sharp:
“So this is your teammate? A fool?”
“Oh come on, don’t say that.”
I shrugged, wearing a nonchalant smile.
“Although his IQ is a bit lacking, he’s strong, tough, and can serve as a meat shield in critical moments. Isn’t that great?”
As soon as I finished speaking, Zhong Dali proudly patted his chest:
“Wow! Meat shield!”
The corner of Liu Bingshuang’s mouth twitched.
She seemed completely unable to understand why I would team up with someone whose IQ was so concerning.
"You... you all..."
She gritted her teeth, seemingly wanting to say something, but was interrupted by Zhong Dali's next words.
"Liu Bingshuang, have you ever tried the mutated roasted chicken? It's so fragrant! I had one last time, wow! The taste!"
Zhong Dali described it with a look of ecstasy, completely oblivious to Liu Bingshuang's twisted expression.
Liu Bingshuang clenched her fists tightly, making a cracking sound.
I watched her with a bit of sympathy, but mostly with the mindset of watching a show.
There was nothing to be done; after all, Zhong Dali had a natural "dumbing down" aura about him.
"Enough!"
Liu Bingshuang finally exploded, her voice sharp and commanding.
"I don't want to be around you anymore! I want to leave!"
As she spoke, she turned to walk away.
Zhong Dali panicked at the thought of her leaving.
"Hey! Don't go! We haven't eaten roasted chicken together yet!"
He reached out to grab Liu Bingshuang, but she shot him a glare that sent him retreating.
Her gaze was icy and piercing, carrying an unmistakable warning.
Zhong Dali shrank back at her stare but still mumbled under his breath:
"Why not eat the roast chicken..."
I looked at Liu Bingshuang and spoke slowly,
"Respect and bless, goodbye and never see you again."
After all, she had set a trap to harm me; why should I keep her around?
Moreover, the sight of her with Zhong Dali was just too bizarre for me to handle.
Liu Bingshuang paused in her steps.
She turned her head, looking at me with a complex expression.
It seemed she didn't expect me to let her go so decisively.
Just then, a series of piercing and chilling screams echoed from afar.
The sound grew closer and louder.
The stench in the air became increasingly overwhelming.
The three of us almost simultaneously looked toward the source of the noise.
My expression changed instantly.
A horde of Zombies was pouring out from every corner of the ruins.
They were numerous, swift in their movements, and had a clear target.
They were coming straight for us!
"Wow!"
Zhong Dali exclaimed, instinctively adopting a defensive posture.
Liu Bingshuang's face also turned pale.
Though she was proud, it was clear that she lacked experience in dealing with a Zombie Tide of this magnitude.
The escape route was instantly cut off.
We were surrounded in the gas station.
Well, there was no way to escape now.
I cursed silently in my heart.
However, a crisis also meant an opportunity.
I looked at the zombies surging towards us, a glint of barely noticeable excitement flashing in my eyes.
"Brother! What should we do? There are so many zombies!"
Zhong Dali asked nervously.
"What should we do? What else can we do?"
I sneered.
"Of course... we fight back!"
The power of Soul Devouring Immunity Evolution within me began to stir.
I need to Devour more Zombies to enhance my power.
I charged at the nearest ordinary Zombie without hesitation and bit down hard.
Warm, putrid liquid flooded into my mouth instantly.
Disgusting, but effective.
A wave of heat surged through my entire body.
My strength and speed increased dramatically in an instant.
Liu Bingshuang watched my actions, her eyes filled with shock and disbelief.
Clearly, she had never seen such a capability before.
"You... you actually bit a Zombie?!"
She exclaimed in surprise.
"What else would I do?"
I replied casually as I lunged at another Zombie.
"Should I just wait to be bitten by them?"
Zhong Dali, though lacking in IQ, was no slouch when it came to combat.
He let out a roar and charged into the horde of Zombies like a human bulldozer.
He braced himself against the Zombies' attacks, punching and kicking, sending them flying one by one.
"Wow! Take down the Zombie!"
He shouted as he fought, as if he were playing a large-scale live-action game.
Liu Bingshuang snapped back to reality. Although she lacked practical experience, her reflexes were quick.
She began to use a power I had never seen before, an invisible wave emanating from her that slowed the movements of the Zombies approaching her.
It seemed she was not an ordinary character.
"Zhong Dali! Hold the left side! Liu Bingshuang! Control the right side! I'll break through the middle!"
I quickly commanded.
In this life-and-death moment, our cooperation was surprisingly seamless.
Zhong Dali tore open a gap with his incredible brute strength.
Liu Bingshuang utilized her ability to slow down the Zombies, buying us precious time.
Meanwhile, I used the power and speed gained from "Soul Devouring Immunity Evolution" to carve a bloody path through the horde of Zombies like a sharp blade.
Killing and devouring, my strength continued to grow.
Amidst mutual disdain and banter, the three of us managed to struggle through the Zombie Tide.
Zhong Dali occasionally asked questions that were both amusing and exasperating, while Liu Bingshuang rolled her eyes at me from time to time. I responded to their various Unique Ability antics with my sharp tongue.
The scene was both thrilling and absurdly humorous.
Just as we were about to break free from the encirclement of the Zombie Tide, I suddenly felt a surge of intense malice.
It was a feeling of being watched.
Moreover, that malice was far more powerful than that of an ordinary Zombie.
I quickly raised my head and looked toward the distant ruins.
A vague figure flashed past in the shadows of the buildings.
The speed was astonishing.
It seemed to have been silently observing all our movements.
My heart sank.
The danger did not only come from the Zombie Tide before us.
It felt as though something even more terrifying had set its sights on us.
