System: ...No! It should be, he hasn't experienced Host's beating yet.
Ming Li raised her hand and flicked the little zombie's forehead.
Ming Li spoke in a flat tone, "Are you sure you don't want them to leave? You want me to do it?"
The little zombie tilted its head, showing no reaction.
Ming Li's lips curved slightly, "Tsk tsk tsk! What a cold-blooded and heartless person! Bah! A zombie!"
Ming Li dropped the little zombie, set up a barrier around her, and turned to rush towards the group of zombies.
On the other side, a third-tier zombie suddenly lunged at Xia Lianrong, its bloody mouth opening wide to bite.
By the time Xia Lianrong noticed, it was too late. As Xia Lianrong closed her eyes, preparing to accept her fate, the zombie in front of her suddenly froze.
Two seconds later.
The third-tier zombie split in half from the middle, two parts falling apart, spraying black and purple blood all over Xia Lianrong.
After the zombie fell, Xia Lianrong saw Ming Li standing opposite her, holding a sword.
Before Xia Lianrong could say anything, she saw Ming Li, sword in hand, quickly dispatching all the zombies.
Everyone present was stunned.
System: ...Host, can we be a little more low-key?
Xia Lianrong: ...Is this the legendary 'three days without seeing someone, you should look at them with new eyes'??
After finishing off all the zombies, Ming Li carried her sword, cast a cool glance at Xia Lianrong, and then turned to walk towards the little zombie.
Xia Lianrong looked at Ming Li's tall and slender retreating figure and said to the crowd, "You all dig out these zombie crystal cores first. Keep a few for research later. I'm going to take a look."
With that, Xia Lianrong followed.
Who is he?
Xia Lianrong pointed at the little zombie and said to Ming Li.
The Great Deceiver Li is online: My brother.
Xia Lianrong: ...You only have an older sister, right? When did you get a younger brother? Don't tell me your parents had him temporarily for the three-child policy.
System: ...When did the villain's big boss become Host's brother??
The little zombie inside the barrier was also stunned when it heard the word "brother."
The little zombie was different from other zombies; their skin was pale and sickly, but the little zombie, apart from being excessively pale, was otherwise fine. This was why Xia Lianrong didn't recognize that the person in front of her was a zombie.
Ming Li raised her hand and waved gently, breaking the barrier and grabbing the little zombie.
Xia Lianrong behind her asked again, "What's his name?"
Ming Li thought for a moment and said, "His name is An Li."
Xia Lianrong: Who gave him this name? Giving a boy a girl's name... how ridiculous!
System: ...Host is indeed an amateur at naming, confirmed.
Ming Li thought of something and asked Xia Lianrong, "Why are you all here?"
Xia Lianrong: Of course, it's to find...
Halfway through, Xia Lianrong paused and changed her words, "Of course, it's to find experimental materials."
Ming Li looked at Xia Lianrong with a look as if she were an idiot.
I don't believe you. Researchers are very precious in the apocalypse. Would those high-ranking officials in the base let a few defenseless research geniuses go out to find materials? They must be out of their minds.
System transmitted to Ming Li: Host, could they be looking for you?
Ming Li: How would I know.
Seeing Xia Lianrong's slightly evasive eyes, Ming Li frowned slightly, "Did you find the experimental materials?"
Xia Lianrong: Found them.
Ming Li: Then let's go back.
