Chapter 131 Little Flower Tames the Loyal Zombie King (12)
Chapter 131 Little Flower Tames the Loyal Zombie King (12)
Even though Chu Yu had a general idea of the monster she was about to face based on her teammates' descriptions, she was still frightened when she actually faced this enormous creature that reeked of stench, was unremarkable in appearance, and even somewhat terrifying.
Qi Heng held her tightly with one hand, trying his best to protect her behind him, and slowly walked to stand beside Chu Hua.
"Sister, are you alright?" Chu Yu asked in a low voice.
"No, How about you?"
"I'm fine, don't worry."
"Ah."
Distracted, Chu Hua glanced at her sister, who was being protected by the man behind her, and silently took a few steps to shield her even more completely.
He glanced at Qi Heng, who hadn't given him a second glance throughout, and said calmly, "Thank you."
Upon hearing this, Qi Heng finally turned his head to glance at her, and unusually, he became polite and courteous, saying, "It's my pleasure."
Upon seeing Qi Heng in person, the zombies opposite him first took a few steps back, carefully examining him. After finally confirming his identity, they began to retreat.
Just a second before it was about to escape, Qi Heng preemptively raised his hand and subdued it.
The zombie was frozen in place, unable to move, and in its desperation let out a hoarse and unpleasant roar.
Upon seeing this, Chu Hua raised her hand and delivered a deadly blow to its head, but it only left a shallow scar on its face.
"it's useless."
The man spoke up, his voice deep and his tone serious.
"This should be the latest mutated zombie; existing human abilities are completely ineffective against it."
Chu Hua frowned deeply. "Are you confident you can kill it?"
Although it is still uncertain how many zombies have evolved to this extent, keeping it around will inevitably pose a hidden danger.
The man didn't answer immediately, seemingly lost in thought.
【Little Milk Cake!!】
[What's wrong, host?]
How do I kill this thing?! It's terrifying!
[Don't worry, the Zombie King is standing right in front of you, what are you afraid of?]
Are you sure Qi Heng can kill this thing?
He remained silent when Chu Hua asked him a question earlier!
[Hmm, according to the system's ability assessment, Qi Heng's abilities are far superior to this mutated zombie's. The reason he hasn't acted rashly is probably, perhaps, because of you...]
[Because of me?]
[Yes, this zombie's body is full of highly toxic venom. If a human gets it on their skin, they will immediately rot and die within a day.]
Is it that exciting?
Sure enough, after a few seconds of contemplation, the man decisively turned to Chu Hua and said, "Its blood is highly poisonous. You take them and go first! I'll handle things here."
Does the venom affect you?
"No."
"Okay, I'll take them back to the car and wait for you. Be careful!"
"Ah."
Qi Heng turned to look at his quiet little darling behind him and said softly, "Little darling, go downstairs with your sister and wait for me in the car. I'll be back soon."
Chu Yu knew the situation was urgent, and gave the man a deep look. "Okay, be careful."
"Well, don't worry."
Chu Hua, along with Chu Yu and two other team members, quickly evacuated the scene.
Only Qi Heng and the monster remained, locked in a silent standoff.
After an unknown amount of time, the hideous monster suddenly spoke, its voice hoarse and unclear, saying slowly and deliberately, "You, how, are you with a human?"
……
Sitting in Qi Heng's car, Chu Yu listened to Chu Hua calmly recounting the day's mission over the communicator, a sense of unease lingering in her heart.
The shopping mall remained completely silent; there was no sound of fighting or any other disturbance.
[Little Milk Cake, can you see Qi Heng's current situation?]
[No, host, I can't get any more shots of Qi Heng after you left! But my data shows his vital signs are normal, meaning he's not injured.]
Chu Yu didn't know why even Xiao Naigao couldn't see the scene on Qi Heng's side.
Little Milk Cake was even more puzzled than she was!
Logically, the technological level of the zombie world shouldn't surpass that of its own God System, so why can the people of this small world block it out?!
So angry.
When Qi Heng opened the car door and got in, Chu Yu was still lost in her own world and hadn't reacted yet.
The man reached out and ruffled her hair while picking up his communicator to report the situation to Chu Hua.
"The zombies have been killed; we can head back now."
After saying that, he put the communicator back and ignored it.
"What is Xiaobao thinking about?"
Are you worried about him?
Chu Yu carefully examined the man in front of her; he was exactly the same as when they parted.
There wasn't even a speck of dirt.
He didn't look like he had just defeated a high-level zombie at all.
She asked hesitantly, "Are you alright?"
Qi Heng was stunned.
Judging from her expression, he thought she would first ask him if he had really killed the zombie.
"It's alright, I'm back safe and sound!"
After saying that, he raised his hand and gently pinched her cheek, teasingly saying with a smile, "If Xiao Bao is worried, I can let you check as much as you want..."
Chu Yu: "..."
It seems like nothing's wrong.
Qi Heng, afraid of provoking people, didn't say anything more, started the car, and followed the convoy.
On the way back, Chu Yu leaned back in her chair and slept the whole way.
She had a magical dream.
In her dream, she saw the zombie she had met in the mall again.
The reason it was recognizable was because it still had the scar left by Chu Hua in the same spot on its face.
She saw the zombie obediently follow behind Qi Heng.
Not only that, the zombie could even speak in broken sentences!
"Boss, when, when, will we massacre the city?"
The Qi Heng in her dream was completely different from the gentle person she usually saw.
His expression was cold and fierce, and his dark pupils were filled with chill.
"Wait a little longer, until I have completely gained the leader's trust."
Chu Yu was stunned, unable to tell whether she was dreaming or in reality, only feeling a terrifying chill rising straight up from the soles of her feet.
Dreams that are too realistic can easily create illusions and make it difficult to distinguish between reality and illusion.
"Baby? Wake up!"
The familiar male voice in her ear sounded urgent.
She slowly opened her eyes and met a pair of worried eyes in front of her.
Qi Heng breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that she was awake. He took out a tissue and carefully wiped the fine sweat from her forehead, then asked casually, "Did you have a nightmare?"
Chu Yu hadn't yet recovered from the almost lifelike dream she'd just experienced, and responded softly with a "Mm."
Qi Heng felt a pang of sympathy for her, so he stopped asking and took a water glass to her lips, saying softly, "Drink some water first."
"it is good."
The little girl took the water cup with both hands, sipped it, and looked around. Only then did she realize that they had already returned to the base, and the car was parked in front of her house.
"When did you arrive?"
As Qi Heng helped her put away her water glass, he replied, "About half an hour. Your sister had a short meeting just now, and seeing that you were sleeping soundly, she didn't wake you up."
"What did you say?"
"It's nothing, I just summarized today's tasks and asked you to bring me back to rest early."
Chu Yu was so tired from her sleep that she didn't have the energy to chat with him anymore. She nodded, thanked him, and prepared to get off the bus and go home.
"Xiao Bao, wait a minute."
"what happened?"
"Have you forgotten what I told you during the day?"
"what?"
“Good children will receive a reward.”
Chu Yu thought for a moment, and realized that he did indeed say that, "What are you going to reward me with?"
Qi Heng stared at her with a deep meaning she couldn't decipher, and after several seconds, he slowly spoke:
"How about I reward you with a secret, okay?"
Chu Yu was now fully awake and became very nervous.
What does he mean?
Did he find out something?
