"Hey, really don't go, turn back now!"
The voice from the other side continued to shout.
But Yun Xiaoxiao and their vehicle had already passed them by.
"Thanks," Yun Xiaoxiao even opened the window and smiled at them as they passed.
"Did I see that right? That was a little girl just now?" Brother with a Buzz Cut looked astonished.
"Yeah, you didn't see wrong."
The Big Man, who was driving the lead car, narrowed his eyebrows and observed the rearview mirror.
In the tiny mirror, a white RV was heading straight towards a bizarre mutated zombie, showing no intention of stopping.
Soon, the distance between them shortened.
At that moment, the RV stopped, and two figures stepped out.
One small, one large; one in black, one in white.
Both appeared leisurely, as if on an outing.
"Goodness, are they really not afraid of death?"
"Or maybe, they're not ordinary people?"
"I think so too. Look at their RV, it's practically built for the apocalypse. Could such people be ordinary?"
"Let's go back," suddenly, the Big Man in the lead car said.
His words were transmitted via the walkie-talkie to the other two vehicles.
"Why, boss? We've just barely escaped here."
"Look behind you."
As the Big Man spoke, he turned the steering wheel and reversed the car.
The others turned to look behind them.
They saw the tall young man leaning against the car, motionless.
Meanwhile, the little girl beside him shot out a vine as thick as a wrist with one hand.
The vine moved incredibly fast, quickly wrapping around the mutated zombie's neck.
The little girl faced the danger without fear, exuding a strong presence, and the green vine didn't seem simple at all.
Everyone widened their eyes in disbelief.
Was this really real?
That little girl looked no more than five years old.
How could she be so strong?!
"Let's go, let's take it down! If a kid isn't afraid, we can't back down either!"
"Right, if we let a kid protect us from zombies while we run away, I'd look down on myself!"
"Although the people from those two cars were just traveling with us, we've been together for over ten days. Let's go, we'll avenge them!"
Saying this, the three cars turned around and sped towards Yun Xiaoxiao and the others.
But they found they might be too late.
Because...
By the time they arrived, they saw Yun Xiaoxiao had already unleashed her power.
With one hand pulling the vine, she leaped into the air, and with the other hand holding a large cleaver, she sliced through the mutated zombie's ten arms as if cutting watermelons.
The zombie's ten arms fell one by one.
In a short while, all ten of the mutated zombie's arms were severed!
It roared crazily, writhing all over.
It seemed to want to shake Yun Xiaoxiao off.
But Yun Xiaoxiao was agile, using the vine to climb up the zombie's body and quickly reached its shoulder.
The mutated zombie turned its head left and right, trying to bite Yun Xiaoxiao.
But Yun Xiaoxiao quickly transformed her cleaver into a spear with a sharp tip, piercing through the zombie's gaping mouth from bottom to top.
The spearhead emerged from the zombie's head at an angle.
The previously roaring zombie immediately closed its eyes and fell to the ground.
Yun Xiaoxiao quickly lengthened the vine and landed gracefully.
She dusted off her hands.
Done!
Luckily, this was just a Level 4 early-stage zombie, while her strength had reached the peak of Level 4 mid-stage.
She had originally thought that if she encountered a Level 4 high-stage zombie, she would try fighting it, and if she couldn't win, she would ask Ling Jing for help.
If that didn't work, since the zombie wouldn't bite Ling Jing, she could just hide in her space, so there wouldn't be any danger.
Yun Xiaoxiao stepped forward and dug out a crystal clear green crystal from the zombie's head.
This was her first time obtaining a Level 4 core, and Yun Xiaoxiao was satisfied as she wrapped it in paper and put it in her bag, actually throwing it into her space.
She turned around and smiled at the group that had frozen in shock.
She had noticed earlier that this group of people, who had shouted for them to leave quickly due to the danger, had returned when she started fighting the mutated zombie.
They probably wanted to help.
In these times, such righteous people were rare.
In a crisis, people's instinctive reactions were the most genuine.
It seemed that this group's character was at least not bad.
Yun Xiaoxiao glanced over and was surprised to find that all nine of them were mutants!
Their goodness levels were also quite good.
"Little girl, did you take some kind of hormone? You're too strong!"
Brother with a Buzz Cut stared at Yun Xiaoxiao, full of curiosity.
Yun Xiaoxiao's mouth twitched.
"Alright, don't talk nonsense."
The Big Man spoke up at the right moment.
"Hello, I'm Lei Ming, we're the Thunder Squad, and we're heading to Rongsheng Base. Do you want to join us?"
Lei Ming was very muscular, with a somewhat fierce appearance, but his eyes were clear, giving a sense of steadiness amidst the fierceness.
Clearly, he was the leader of this group.
Yun Xiaoxiao's eyes flashed with cunning.
"Uncle, are you going to join Rongsheng Base?"
"Yes, that's right."
Yun Xiaoxiao smiled. Jiang Huai had given her a 'big surprise,' so she had to express her gratitude.
So, she pretended to be puzzled and tilted her head.
"But... isn't Rongsheng Base no longer accepting people?"
"Not accepting people?" Lei Ming frowned.
"Yes, haven't you listened to the radio broadcasts for a long time?"
Lei Ming and the others looked embarrassed.
"Yes, we've been on the road recently and haven't listened to the radio much."
After Lei Ming finished speaking, Brother with a Buzz Cut went to the car and started tuning the radio.
After a series of crackling sounds, the Rongsheng Base's repeated announcement played.
Listening to the content, their brows furrowed.
"What should we do? Rongsheng Base really isn't accepting people anymore?"
"If you're looking for a place to stay, go straight ahead from here, and when you reach the town, take the road to the right. Continue driving for an hour and a half, and you'll see a hundred-meter-high wall. There's a base called Yun City there; you can go there."
Yun Xiaoxiao said with a smile, looking innocent.
This group was strong and had good character, so she decided to recruit them.
Jiang Huai probably wouldn't mind.
After all... didn't he not want people anymore?
She was just 'helping' him.
"How do you know that?" Brother with a Buzz Cut beside her asked, puzzled.
Yun Xiaoxiao pursed her lips. "Because... we came from there."
After discussion, Lei Ming and the others decided to go and take a look.
"Thank you for showing us the way," Lei Ming thanked.
Yun Xiaoxiao waved it off. "Hey... what's there to thank for? We're friends."
Ling Jing, leaning against the car, curled his lips.
This little rascal, clearly trying to recruit people, yet so serious about it...
