Chapter 2: CH 2

Chapter 2: Let’s go down together

The gun that flew out hit a zombie in the head and when she looked at the man’s distorted face, Chi Xin felt a little guilty. She just wanted to keep him from firing, who knew her leg would move on its own.

The man was shocked for a moment and recovered a bit of sanity. He stared at the weak and thin Chi Xin; he couldn’t help but feel a little afraid and didn’t dare to make another rash move.

“Cao Yan, what is going on?”

Yu Xiang had been watching the scene on the side and had a hard time picking up his jaw from the floor. When he saw the man go crazy, he rushed over and shouted with warning.

“Yu Xiang, I know she saved your life but you can’t protect her anymore!” Cao Yan’s eyes were full of hatred and shot straight to Chi Xin.

“She caused this! How many lives have just been lost? How many more? If we aren’t going to survive, she should pay with her blood first!”

Yu Xiang glanced at Chi Xin behind him. Knowing her character, she should have started crying by now, saying she was innocent, that she didn’t mean it or didn’t know anything, just like she had done when they had questioned her about Jiang Congyun’s pendant.

But Chi Xin opened a pair of large, calm eyes and looked back at them quietly; her aloof and composed face were not expressions he had expected to see. A trace of confusion flashed through his eyes and Yu Xiang reluctantly looked at Jing Xiubai who was standing not far away.

“Are you still not going to do anything?”

Chi Xin was on the lookout for danger from any directions and nodded wildly in her heart: Yes, hero, do something! I’m not ready to die yet!

Jing Xiubai didn’t immediately answer. He shot a zombie that lunged at him and a few drops of dirty blood splashed on his face. He raised his eyes to look at the distance; on the other side of the thick smoke, several tanks were breaking through the layers of zombies and heading towards them. Chi Xin followed his gaze and watched the situation, as more and more survivors noticed the vehicles. Suddenly, hope renewed under the fear and everyone cheered for salvation.

The biological cannonballs in them had been developed by the top research institute of the country, which had relocated itself to City A’s base after the outbreak, and had been made specially to incapacitate the zombie virus.

One, two, three, four… There were only five units. Chi Xin’s heart that had relaxed slightly tensed up again and the expression on her face became even colder.

In the movie, in order to repel this wave of zombies, City A had dispatched ten tanks, each equipped with three bio-cannons. With the help of the hero, they had managed to drive away the army of corpses and kill the high-level zombie that had come with it. But right now, not only the male protagonist had no attention on doing anything, but the tanks had also been reduced by half!

Listening to the nearby survivors’ cheers and seeing their determination rise again, Chi Xin opened her mouth to speak, which was seen by Jing Xiubai. The man wiped the bloodstains on his face and looked at her from behind his glasses.

“Chi Xin, what do you have to say for your defense?”

Chi Xin: Is it too late to beg for mercy?

In the same instant, under everybody’s cheers, the five tanks had been fully prepared and started to fire the biological cannonballs at the zombies.

Bang.

Thousands of corpses suddenly lost their traction and fell straight to the ground. Seeing the efficacity, people’s excitement increased and some even cried with joy. One after another, cannonballs were fired and the zombie army weakened at a speed visible to the naked eye; layers upon layers of dead bodies piled up after losing the vitality of the virus.

Things were getting better and even Cao Yan, who had just gone insane, knelt on the ground in tears, clasping his hands and mumbling religiously. But Jing Xiubai who had never stopped staring at Chi Xing realized her beautiful and indifferent profile had become more solemn. What did she find?

Chi Xin watched as zombies fell like dominos but did not cheer like the others. Instead, she became anxious and worried. Her gaze kept searching among the zombies and the fallen corpse around made the standing figures easier to spot… found it!

Based on the image of the movie in her memory, Chi Xin stared at a zombie who was standing in the middle. The distance was too far and she couldn’t see its appearance but could guess it was stronger than the other corpses; this was the high-level zombie who had launched the attack. No matter how many ordinary zombies died, as long as it stayed alive, the attack would be endless. Once the biological cannons ran out, even if the hero was willing to finally take action, she was afraid it would be too late.

No way, she really didn’t want to die!

With Chi Xin’s increasingly cold gaze, Jing Xiubai also noticed the obviously different zombie and his mood sank. Was this…? But how did Chi Xin know about it and how did she find it so fast?

Yu Xiang also saw both of their expressions and said his own smile dropped: “No, the zombies are almost dead, why do you look like that?”

Chi Xin remained silent and the troublemaker system rang in her head.

[The host has killed fifty zombies and has gotten five points of trouble. Keep it up, host!]

Chi Xin asked suspiciously: “Killing zombies also cause trouble?”

[The host is indeed causing trouble for the zombie side. So go kill that high-level zombie now!]

Chi Xin: ?!

Despite being so afraid of death, the reason Chi Xin was currently unresponsive was that she was fighting with the system in her head.

[Jump down! Kill the zombies!]

“No!”

[Hurry up! You can’t die! Jump!]

“I won’t!”

[You won’t die!]

Chi Xin’s brain was about to explode and the system changed its request: [Then push the hero down! Hurry up!]

Chi Xin: … Dog system! What is this stupid idea, isn’t the world chaotic enough?

Chi Xin raised her head to glance at Jing Xiubai, who was still standing straight in the panic, as handsome as ever even covered in blood.

“I…”
