Chapter 86.4: Cannon Fodder In The Post-Apocalyptic World (15)

The two zombies relentlessly pursued Gu MingYue, keeping up with every step she took, until they reached the foot of the snowy mountain. Taking a deep breath of the crisp air, Mingyue abruptly halted in front of a rock covered in ice and snow.

The two zombies behind her launched an attack in an instant.

The injuries sustained by the zombies from the previous attack had not completely healed, but even with their injuries, they displayed extraordinary strength after consuming their own kind. Their destructive power was very strong, relying on instinctual attacks that were fierce but lacked any pattern. In response to this, the combat skills that Gu MingYue had acquired as a reward in her previous mission world came into play. Her body was agile and flexible, using minimal effort and concise movements to manoeuvre between the attacks of the two zombies. With a speed that looks blurry to the naked eye, typical of non-human creatures, by the time Jing Yao arrived panting, the battle was already reaching its conclusion.

Gu MingYue used her close combat martial arts skills to disarm both zombies, knocking off their jaws, and shattering each zombie’s kneecap with powerful kicks. The immobilized zombies roared in anger, stumbling forward to continue their assault on the petite yet explosive woman in front of them.

With each step and leap, Gu MingYue’s movements became more ethereal. Thanks to the effects of the medicine provided by Xi Wei, she managed to sustain herself with the little energy she had left. However, her energy had now been completely depleted, and soon her body would be unable to move any longer.

Not wanting to be defeated, Gu MingYue took a daring and risky move, despite the relentless roars of the zombies. Meanwhile, Jing Yao watched helplessly as one of the zombies’ sharp, knife-like hands pierced through Gu MingYue’s chest...

Even though Gu Mingyue possessed an almost indestructible body, the feeling of having her heart crushed by brute force was excruciatingly painful.

With its jaw hanging, the zombie let out a low growl, seemingly curious as to why she hadn’t died yet.

Deciding to deliver the final blow, it instantly raised its other hand with its five fingers poised to sever Gu Mingyue’s head.

The terrifying scene had Jing Yao holding his breath...

Not far away, the snow-capped mountain towered majestically, its peak seemingly split the sky. The sky above stretched vast and blue, while the broken body lay on the ground, appearing so insignificant... But suddenly, a large head obstructed the magnificent view.

“Hey, are you alright?”

The man’s voice trembled slightly.

“I... I’m not... doing this... to save you,” the woman’s voice was extremely weak and muffled, but Jing Yao managed to understand what she was trying to say.

“I know, I know. Don’t speak anymore...”

...Without you, even if I won, I won’t be able to leave this place...

So, I was technically saving myself.

That’s how it is. Let’s just leave it at that and let you continue with your misunderstanding...

Enjoy~
