The zombie, Jiang Zhaosu, froze when a young girl suddenly appeared inside the van as if she were a ghost.

How is this possible?

Ever since Xiao Yi appeared, Jiang Zhaosu had been vigilantly monitoring her surroundings for any changes in energy.

But besides Qi Xing and Xiao Yi, and the Square-Faced Man in the back, she hadn't sensed anyone else.

Where did this girl come from?

"Are you Captain Qi's sister?" the girl asked her.

Although her skull was still bleeding, Jiang Zhaosu had recently replenished her nutrients. Her decaying, foul-smelling skin had returned to normal, and her skull and half of her small face were covered by a black hoodie.

As long as she didn't open her mouth, she now looked like just a thin, pale, and weak young girl.

As soon as she heard the girl's question, Jiang Zhaosu knew this person was definitely working with that Xiao Yi.

This time, Jiang Zhaosu had learned her lesson. Before she knew the opponent's strength, she didn't attack rashly. Instead, she cautiously nodded.

"Hello, I'm Xiao Yi's sister, Xiao Chuxi."

Xiao Chuxi was young, appearing to have just reached adulthood. She wore a denim overalls dress and had her hair tied up in a high ponytail. Her skin was smooth, her face pretty and delicate, and she had a pair of bright, clear, big eyes. She looked like someone with an outgoing personality.

Xiao Chuxi spoke to her in a relatively friendly tone, asking for her consent.

"Sister, your brother made a mistake. Can you persuade him and my sister to go back? I promise, when you return to the base, my sister and I will definitely plead with the higher-ups to help your brother get acquitted."

Bullshit!

As soon as Jiang Zhaosu heard this, she knew the sister was lying.

Xiao Yi had immediately used a killing move on her when she knew she was a zombie, and now she was being so rude to Qi Xing.

Qi Xing could still resist for now, but if they really went back with these two, would she and Qi Xing still have a chance to live?

From the conversation she overheard between Qi Xing and Xiao Yi earlier, Jiang Zhaosu knew that this little girl must have been well protected by her sister.

Seeing Xiao Chuxi's innocent and carefree expression, Jiang Zhaosu's eyes darted around. She nodded, pretending to agree.

After Xiao Chuxi got out of the car with her, Jiang Zhaosu circled around from the passenger seat to Xiao Chuxi's back. With her fastest speed, she opened her mouth, revealing her fangs, and lunged to bite Xiao Chuxi's neck.

Damn it, I hate these self-righteous types the most.

Bite this person! Turn her into a zombie too!

Let's see if that rule-abiding Xiao Yi can still maintain her calm and composed demeanor and legally eliminate her own sister!

Frankly, Jiang Zhaosu had chosen her timing well. If Xiao Chuxi had been an ordinary person, she would have been bitten.

But she had lost too much brain matter, and her brain had become sluggish.

Xiao Chuxi, who could conceal her aura, evade Jiang Zhaosu's nose and Qi Xing's sight, and appear in the car without anyone noticing, naturally also had an ability.

And Xiao Chuxi's ability happened to be teleportation.

Sensing something behind her, Xiao Chuxi immediately used her ability, and her figure disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Jiang Zhaosu lunged at empty air, not only failing to bite anyone but almost falling.

The next second, Xiao Chuxi appeared behind her like a ghost and kicked her, who was off-balance, to the ground.

Jiang Zhaosu fell face-first into the dirt. Her hoodie fell off, revealing the bloody hole in the back of her head.

Thick black blood and yellowish-white brain matter continuously flowed out of the hole in her dense black hair.

An ordinary person would not have survived such a severe head injury.

Even Xiao Chuxi, who had seen many zombies, couldn't help but tremble as she saw this scene, exclaiming in surprise, "You're not human, you're a zombie?!"

Jiang Zhaosu, with a mouthful of dirt and her eyes red, took advantage of Xiao Chuxi's stunned reaction to her identity and lunged at Xiao Chuxi again, pinning her to the ground and roaring as she prepared to tear at her flesh.

But a strange thing happened.

Even though she had pinned Xiao Chuxi down, the Xiao Chuxi beneath her disappeared at the moment she was about to bite.

She truly vanished in an instant.

Not only did Jiang Zhaosu fail to harm Xiao Chuxi, but her sharp fangs almost bit off her own lower lip.

Afterward, Xiao Chuxi reappeared beside her and stepped on the back of her neck.

This time, Xiao Chuxi was serious.

"Hoo hoo..."

A terrifying roar came from Jiang Zhaosu's throat. Just as she was about to struggle, she felt the pressure on her neck increase.

The fragile, slender neck bones made cracking sounds, on the verge of breaking. Jiang Zhaosu immediately became still, not daring to move.

"Qi Xing!" Xiao Chuxi shouted at Qi Xing, who was still locked in a standoff with her sister, "Let go of my sister, or I'll snap this zombie's neck!"

"Aow aow aow..."

Jiang Zhaosu also let out a desperate roar, feeling a sliver of despair.

Qi Xing, I really did my best this time!

Qi Xing, while suppressing Xiao Yi who was ready to counterattack at any moment, glanced sideways in Jiang Zhaosu's direction.

Seeing Jiang Zhaosu, a conscious high-level mutated species, beaten and battered by a mere B-Level Ability User, pitifully lying on the ground, Qi Xing couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

"It's not the opponent like a god you should fear, but the teammate like a pig!"

He thought he'd found a conscious high-level mutated species, but it turned out to be a little zombie that knew nothing but eating meat. Compared to his partner, why was his Fugui so useless?

The Surveillance Eye had already been destroyed, and Xiao Yi's Protective Shield looked like it was about to collapse.

His best option now was to ignore this stupid little zombie, kill the more capable Xiao Yi first, and then deal with Xiao Chuxi.

After that, he could get three Crystal Cores and then leisurely drive the van, loaded with supplies, to the south to find his sister.

But when Qi Xing looked at Jiang Zhaosu's round eyes, which were like a puppy's and filled with "I don't want to die" and "I don't want to die," his heart inexplicably softened.

Fugui, Fugui, you really are a useless little thing, aren't you?

Even eating Crystal Cores hasn't allowed you to evolve an Ability, you have no skills at all. You should have died by my hand a couple of days ago.

Instead, you begged me to spare your life, and now you're just causing me trouble.

Fine, I'll just use this to establish an image of a good brother in front of Xiao Yi.

Otherwise, if I kill two more Ability Users from the Base, I'll definitely be heavily investigated by the Base.

Then, fighting would waste my energy, and not fighting would mean constantly hiding, which is also quite annoying.

"No!"

Qi Xing pretended to object loudly and said to Xiao Chuxi, "If you have any complaints, take them out on me. Don't touch my sister."

Seeing that Xiao Yi's forehead was already beaded with cold sweat and she was about to collapse from exhaustion, Xiao Chuxi sternly shouted again, "Let go of my sister!"

"Alright," Qi Xing replied. "I'll count to three, and we'll let go at the same time."

"One."

"Two."

To prevent the Sister Xiao from betraying him after he helped them, as soon as he said "Two," Qi Xing secretly sent a Vine to sneak up from underground towards Xiao Chuxi.

"Three!"

Before he finished speaking, his Vine had already snatched the dying Jiang Zhaosu from under Xiao Chuxi's feet.

At the same time, several Vines attacked Xiao Yi, who could no longer maintain her Protective Shield, with the force of breaking wind.

"Sister!"

Xiao Chuxi, standing by their van, vanished and reappeared beside Xiao Yi, projecting an energy shield to block the deadly plants.

While Xiao Chuxi and Xiao Yi were dealing with the Vines, Qi Xing took Jiang Zhaosu, handed over by a Vine, in one hand, and held onto the Vine with the other, quickly jumping down the mountainside.
