In the apocalypse, you start with two knives, and all your equipment depends on drops.

Chapter 10 Luo Mei

Yu Yao deliberately sought out areas with fewer zombies, taking many detours, but reaping a great harvest.

Not only are the dual swords used more smoothly and faster, but the level has also been upgraded to level 5.

The light-foot skill "Cloud Step" has been unlocked.

That's a movement skill applicable to all classes.

Yu Yao tried it out. Although she couldn't fly or disappear into the ground, she could manage simple feats like scaling walls and jumping over buildings.

Moreover, the speed of movement can also be greatly improved.

With this skill, she can move more freely through hordes of zombies.

......

"Beautiful lady, beautiful lady, help me! Help me! Don't go! I'll give you money!"

This was the 15th time Yu Yao had heard a human's cry for help.

Many people are still not used to the cruelty of the apocalypse and can only stay at home and watch quietly.

When people see Yu Yao slicing through zombies like watermelons from the window, they often have the thought of asking her to protect them.

Yu Yao ignored all these sounds and focused solely on killing the zombies around her.

Kill them and leave. Stay as far away from these yelling idiots as possible.

Seeing that Yu Yao ignored him, someone shouted even louder: "Hey! Did you hear me? I won't let you save someone for nothing. One million, one million, how about it?"

Yu Yao scoffed.

A million dollars might be a lot of money before the apocalypse.

But now it's the end of the world, and money has long since become a string of useless numbers and pieces of waste paper.

She must be crazy to bring such an idiot along just for a little money.

Didn't you hear that he alerted the nearby zombies?

Seeing that Yu Yao still ignored them and walked further and further away, many of the people who were still watching became anxious and spoke up one after another, hoping that Yu Yao would save them.

But all they received in response was a slender yet cold back view.

All sorts of pitiful cries for help and vicious curses pierced her ears, and some people even threw whatever was at them.

Although she managed to dodge it, her patience completely vanished, and she immediately used the "Cloud Stepping Step" to leave quickly.

The ever-growing number of zombies quickly obliterated any trace of Yu Yao's existence, as if she had never been there at all.

......

With the added benefit of "Cloud Steps", Yu Yao arrived at the outskirts of the villa area in just a few hours.

The villa area mainly consists of detached villas with yards, and there are not many zombies or humans inside, which makes Yu Yao very satisfied.

She specifically sought out a villa that was deserted and had a large yard.

He used the "Cloud Step" technique to scale the wall and enter the courtyard, then broke open the door and hid inside.

She carefully inspected the villa and only felt relieved after confirming that there were no signs of human habitation other than the basic renovations.

I went to the bathroom, took out a bathtub, filled it with water, and took a simple cold shower.

She killed zombies for most of the day, and their foul-smelling black blood sprayed all over her.

Although the clothes from the system's store have an automatic cleaning function, and she wore a hat and mask all day, she still felt that she smelled terrible.

After washing up, I changed into clean clothes.

He rubbed his stomach, which was very hungry but he still didn't want to eat meat. He silently took out a plate of braised eggplant and a plate of lettuce with oyster sauce and ate it with rice.

To her surprise, before she could even finish her meal, she discovered a large number of small red dots suddenly appearing on the map.

The small red dots that were originally in the villa area also began to gather in that direction.

Yu Yao was curious, so she took a closer look and soon discovered that there was a faint blue dot moving in front of the red dot.

The blue dot's intensity fluctuates, and it sometimes turns purple and sometimes red.

Clearly, this is a human injured by a zombie, a human who repeatedly oscillates between awakening superpowers and becoming a zombie!

Yu Yao stared at the constantly changing blue dot and shoveled a mouthful of rice into her mouth.

He secretly marveled at how skilled this person must be, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to lead this group of zombies around for so long while injured.

Moreover, red dots kept disappearing around the opponent, clearly indicating that they had been killed by that person.

incredible.

She ate a few more mouthfuls of rice and began to wonder how long she could endure this situation if it happened to her.

But before she could figure it out, her expression became increasingly serious.

Yu Yao couldn't help but click her tongue when she heard a heavy thud and a muffled groan coming from under the courtyard wall outside the villa.

What?! Why did you have to come here of all places to hide?

With a cold expression, she put away the food she hadn't finished eating and went to the window to look at the person who had come in.

She was a woman, a woman with short, neat hair, wearing a black jumpsuit, with a beautiful and glamorous face, yet exceptionally dashing and capable.

Unfortunately, the man's pale lips and faintly bluish complexion greatly detracted from her appearance.

Yu Yao looked at her expressionlessly, then smiled bitterly at her own wet left arm.

He then pulled a gun from his waist, closed his eyes, and pointed it at his temple.

Seeing this, Yu Yao couldn't help but frown, looking at the glowing spot that belonged to her on the minimap.

Its color shifts between purple and red, completely transcending the realm of ordinary humans.

He was a man of spirit, and it's a pity he died like that.

......

As Luo Mei felt the increasingly uncontrollable violent energy within her body, her heart grew more and more desperate.

Sure enough, someone like her is incapable of being a good person. She managed to save someone, only to find herself in such a predicament.

Ah.

She gave a bitter laugh, her finger trembling even more as she pulled the trigger.

She wasn't afraid of death, but she couldn't bear to leave her brother and her fellow brothers.

But she didn't want to become that disgusting thing!

no way!

Thinking of this, a ruthless look flashed across her face, and she gradually tightened her grip, about to pull the trigger.

Just then, the sound of a door opening reached their ears, followed by the girl's clear and melodious soft voice.

"Are you going to give up before it's even over?"

Luo Mei opened her slightly white eyes and saw a beautiful face that she would never forget.

A small, bright red birthmark adorned his brow, and his cool, peach-blossom eyes gazed at her calmly.

Completely different from those pairs of eyes filled with fear, disgust, and schadenfreude.

Luo Mei's lips twitched slightly for a moment, her voice hoarse.

"But...that thing is so ugly, I...I don't want to become like that."

Yu Yao raised an eyebrow slightly, her voice becoming seductive.

"I heard that getting infected with the zombie virus might awaken superpowers. Don't you want to give it a try?"

Upon hearing this, Luo Mei's eyes, which were covered by a layer of grayish-white, slowly brightened.

After a long while, he moved his arm with difficulty and slowly pointed the gun in his hand at Yu Yao.

Then, with a flick of his finger, the gun was turned around, and the handle was aimed at Yu Yao.

“If I can’t hold on any longer, kill me with my gun.”

"it is good."

......

After taking Luo Mei's gun, Yu Yao helped her directly into the villa.

The reason I feel so at ease is that the light spot belonging to her stays in the purple for longer and longer periods of time, which most likely means she is about to awaken her superpower.

Luo Mei's forehead was very hot, so Yu Yao put her on the sofa and then went to the bathroom.

I took a basin, towel, and water from my storage space and used them to apply a cold compress to her forehead.

Although it won't bring down the fever, at least it will make you feel more comfortable.

Luo Mei, who was almost unconscious, raised her pale lips, looked at Yu Yao, and said softly, "My name is Luo Mei, Luo as in Luo Binwang, and Mei as in rose. This is my real name."

Yu Yao nodded, took out a first-aid kit and treated Luo Mei's arm wound without looking up.

"My name is Yu Yao, Yu from Yu Meiren (the beauty of poppies), Yao from Yaochi (the Jade Pool), and it is also my real name."

Luo Mei chuckled softly, her eyes growing even darker and clearer. "It sounds so beautiful, if..."

Before Luo Mei could finish speaking, she fell into a deep sleep.

Yu Yao glanced at her calmly, her hands continuing to treat her wounds without stopping.

Only after settling Luo Mei in did Yu Yao take out her twin swords again and leave the villa.

Luo Mei attracted too many zombies, and they seem to have recognized her scent, refusing to leave even now.

Instead, it attracted even more zombies, and if not dealt with in time, it could lead to a zombie horde.

If it gets to that point, things will get complicated!
