Gu Wanqing never expected the zombies to evolve so quickly.
The reason her supernatural abilities were stronger than most people's was because she had awakened her abilities when she was nineteen years old.
It was in the middle of the night, over three years ago.
A few meteorites had fallen, causing many accidents that night.
She was one of the survivors of that incident.
She was just luckier and managed to stay alive.
Although she survived, her head ached terribly.
There was a strange energy in her body that could damage anything she touched.
In the end, she had no choice but to be confined in a laboratory, where various instruments were used to dissipate the energy in her body that was powerful enough to make her explode.
Of course, it was then that she met Wen Qingsheng.
He too had survived the same incident.
Like her, Wen Qingsheng had also awakened his supernatural abilities three years before the apocalypse.
And Wen Qingsheng's ability was very special, one that Gu Wanqing almost never let him use.
After all, using it would harm his body.
And in the current apocalypse, his ability was not needed.
Yu Qingxian was unaware at the time that their whereabouts had already been discovered.
What puzzled her was that this high-level zombie, capable of commanding the horde, was being attracted by something from the official base.
But what was it that drew it?
She couldn't sense it.
However, Yu Qingxian had no intention of stopping this zombie.
"Well, good luck to you," Yu Qingxian said instinctively.
But as soon as she said that, she suddenly realized something.
If this zombie succeeded, wouldn't the base be compromised?
With that thought, she looked back at the solid base walls, and felt that it would be unlikely for it to be conquered.
"How long have you been leading the horde to attack this base?" Yu Qingxian still wanted to ask.
After all, she had only seen hordes besieging bases in novels and movies.
Now that she was witnessing it firsthand, she was a bit curious.
In those movies and novels, many bases were easily conquered.
So she wanted to know how long this zombie had been leading the horde to lay siege to this base.
"Half a month," the zombie replied honestly, stating the exact time.
When Yu Qingxian heard that the horde had been besieging the base for half a month without even reaching the main gate, she was full of admiration for the human soldiers.
If she were still alive and could instantly reach the base, would she be able to survive as well?
...Hmm...that was probably impossible.
After all, the survivors in the base also needed to work.
Especially in the early stages of the apocalypse.
Many things needed to be started from scratch.
Naturally, it was very likely that the official base would have a unified food distribution system.
To ensure that everyone had something to eat, they probably encouraged everyone to work and do chores.
When Yu Qingxian thought about her own laziness.
Well, maybe not.
She used to live in an old neighborhood, but everything in her home was highly modern.
She didn't like washing dishes, so she had a dishwasher.
She didn't like sweeping, so she had a robotic vacuum cleaner.
She didn't like hassle, so her washing machine could wash and dry in one go.
Indeed, for the first twenty-five years of her life, thanks to her parents, she rarely had to do anything by hand.
How should I put it? Without all the high-tech products, Yu Qingxian herself was just a waste.
Thinking of this, Yu Qingxian smiled helplessly.
Indeed, those who managed to survive the apocalypse were all very brave people.
People that she admired.
Yu Qingxian suddenly fell silent, surprising the zombie opposite her.
In his view, a zombie like Yu Qingxian should find it easy to blend in among humans, right?
Of course, for him, it would be a bit difficult.
Just as he got out of the elevator, he almost mistook this female zombie for a human.
Because she was just too human-like.
"Shall we collaborate?" the male zombie spoke, taking the initiative to propose a partnership to Yu Qingxian.
"Sorry, but I have to refuse," Yu Qingxian calmly declined.
Collaborating with a zombie would essentially mean joining him to lead zombies to attack the base.
Yu Qingxian would not stop this zombie king, but she would not join him in attacking humans either.
She was not a psycho.
After saying that, Yu Qingxian pulled her luggage with one hand and took out a map with the other to check.
She confirmed that this building was indeed a local landmark.
So from this building, she could overlook the entire city.
Yu Qingxian had already come this far, so she figured she might as well take in the sights.
She heard that this building originally required an admission ticket.
Now there was no need for a ticket, and the city's scenery had not been too badly damaged.
She had never tried viewing the city from this angle before.
Coming up to this tall building was not just to see the current human base, but also to enjoy the scenery.
With the mindset that she had already come this far, Yu Qingxian naturally intended to take a good look at this city's landmark building as well.
After all, with this zombie king attracting human energy.
She had become just an ordinary zombie wandering around.
The zombie watched as Yu Qingxian rejected his offer, feeling a bit puzzled.
After all, there were many superhumans in this base.
If they could consume a few, they would become even stronger.
"But the humans in this base are very delicious, and with your abilities, you should be able to handle even the strongest superhuman in there, right?" the zombie persisted.
If this zombie could help him deal with the most formidable superhuman in the base, that would be a huge help.
But if she were killed by a superhuman, then he would have one less competitor.
Now she seemed uninterested in him, but what if she got hungry?
Even though she appeared mild-mannered, that could just be because she was full.
Yu Qingxian never imagined that in this zombie's eyes, she was capable of dealing with the strongest superhuman in the base.
Bro, you really think too highly of me!
Yu Qingxian reached out and patted the zombie's shoulder, then gave him a thumbs up.
"Great imagination."
For her to take on the strongest superhuman in the base? Why not just ask her to immediately resolve the conflict between humans and zombies?
Yu Qingxian even felt that the latter might be easier to accomplish.
After saying that, Yu Qingxian withdrew her hand and sat on her luggage, starting to move.
There should be plenty of surveillance cameras in this building, right?
If any humans could see this surveillance footage, did that mean she was being watched too?
Oh well, with her fully armed appearance, she wasn't worried about being recognized.
Surely there were no acquaintances watching the surveillance, right?
But then again, she didn't really have any acquaintances.
Whatever, just let them watch.
I have a zombie king right beside me, who would dare approach?
And Yu Qingxian had guessed correctly the thoughts of those watching the surveillance footage.
Even though this 'person' seemed to be associated with that high-level zombie.
None of them dared to easily dispatch anyone to this building.
The person sitting in the chair, seeing this scene, turned to look at Gu Wanqing.
When Gu Wanqing saw him looking at her, she spread her hands: "Sorry, I have another mission at hand, and my task is to protect this person at all costs. You can ask him if he agrees to let me go."
After saying that, Gu Wanqing pointed at Pei Yu'an.
She was busy enough as it was.
She had already traveled across the entire country.
But precisely because there were some things that only she could do, she naturally could not refuse.
Although Pei Yu'an did not specify whether the other one was human or zombie.
Gu Wanqing was one thousand percent certain that the other was a zombie.
Encountering a zombie that didn't eat humans was legendary enough.
