BXBX NOVEL Chapter 35
"Little Cutie, you take the left and I\'ll take the right. Let\'s charge in together!"0
A smile curled Yun Xiaoxiao\'s lips as her blood began to boil.0
At this moment, she was like a warmonger, her eyes filled with bloodthirsty excitement.0
The scorpion seemed to understand her words and immediately faced forward with an imposing manner.0
It locked onto an approaching zombie and darted out in an instant.0
Seeing this, Yun Xiaoxiao pressed her lips together.0
Like a whirlwind, she supported herself with one hand on the car\'s hood and leapt up, thrusting her long spear into a male zombie that had run out from the other side of the car.0
And so, the girl and the scorpion wreaked havoc all around.0
If anyone were to see them killing zombies as easily as crushing ants, their jaws would surely drop in shock.0
After clearing out the zombies along their path, they began to clean up the battlefield and collect crystal cores.0
At first, Little Cutie didn\'t understand what Yun Xiaoxiao was doing.0
But when it saw her pull out a red crystal core from a zombie\'s head, its eyes lit up.0
So that\'s where those delicious things came from!0
It began to imitate her, digging into zombie heads.0
Seeing this, Yun Xiaoxiao hurriedly said, "You know you can\'t eat them directly when you take them out, right? Give them to me first, and I\'ll give you something even tastier later."0
The effect of consuming crystal cores directly was certainly inferior to that of evolution fluid.0
Little Cutie nodded, seeming to half-understand.0
In the end, they only found ten crystal cores from nearly one hundred and thirty zombies.0
The ratio was incredibly low.0
Still, it was better than nothing.0
Seeing Little Cutie gazing at her eagerly, Yun Xiaoxiao patiently reassured it.0
"Don\'t be impatient. I\'ll give them to you later. I\'ll keep them safe for now. You just ate a level-two crystal core, right? You can\'t eat any more today, or your body might explode."0
Little Cutie looked at her suspiciously, its expression seeming to say, "Are you sure you\'re not lying to me?"0
Yun Xiaoxiao actually understood this expression.0
She solemnly patted her chest and put on a serious face.0
"Of course not. Do I look like the kind of person who would deceive a scorpion?"0
Little Cutie: .......0
You do, very much so, extremely so!0
Yun Xiaoxiao washed the crystal cores clean with spring water and tossed them into her spatial storage.0
She looked up at the dark, heavy clouds overhead.0
They needed to find a safe place to stay soon.0
Night was about to fall.0
And there was a possibility of a heavy rainstorm.0
She took out a small black backpack from her spatial storage and put some food and drinks inside.0
She did this because after entering the city, they might encounter other survivors at any time.0
If absolutely necessary, she could take these out in an emergency.0
She didn\'t want anyone to discover that she had spatial storage and resources, lest they covet them.0
"Let\'s go, Little Cutie," she called out.0
Little Cutie immediately crawled up her pant leg to her shoulder.0
As it climbed, its body continuously shrank.0
Until finally, it returned to its original size.0
It found the most comfortable spot to rest.0
Seeing this, Yun Xiaoxiao found it even more amazing.0
Her little pet was quite something – it could be big or small, fierce or adorable. It was truly the cream of the crop among pets!0
Yun Xiaoxiao chuckled softly and immediately set off.0
Her small figure appeared so tiny and lonely in the vast landscape.0
The sky was covered in dark clouds, like a giant curtain pressing down, making it hard to breathe.0
A fierce wind followed, howling as if it would tear the earth apart.0
Just as Yun Xiaoxiao killed a zombie that had been chasing her and ducked into an art gallery, the sky outside suddenly exploded with a "boom," followed immediately by a torrential downpour, rain falling like pillars from the sky.0
Soon, a curtain of rain hung outside.0
She was about to close the door when a male zombie inside the gallery, wearing a suit and tie with its mouth horribly mangled, bared its exposed sharp teeth and charged at her with a roar.0
Yun Xiaoxiao raised her spear and quickly dispatched it.0
Just as the zombie fell, a series of hurried footsteps sounded from the doorway.0
Yun Xiaoxiao turned to see several people, soaking wet, rush in from outside.0
The last person was fending off a frenzied zombie with a steel fork as it lunged at them.0
Another man quickly rushed forward and kicked the zombie.0
The zombie immediately broke free from the fork and flew backwards.0
"Close the door, quick!" the man shouted, pulling the person with the fork inside.0
Two others guarding the door immediately shut it.0
Just as the door closed, the kicked zombie and two others that had followed closely behind all pounced at once.0
They clawed and flailed, continuously beating on the glass door.0
Their handprints were left on the glass.0
Seeing that the zombies couldn\'t get in, everyone let out a sigh of relief.0
"That was close. We almost died!"0
"How did it suddenly start pouring like this?"0
"Enough talk. Let\'s check if there are any more zombies inside."0
As the group prepared to move further into the gallery, they turned and noticed Yun Xiaoxiao standing to one side.0
They looked at each other, all at a loss for words.0
Anyone would be startled to suddenly turn around and see a stranger watching them, especially in this apocalyptic world where monsters could appear at any moment to take your life.0
All except for the man who had remained calm in the face of danger, kicking away the troublesome zombie and pulling his teammate inside.0
He looked somewhat surprised. "It\'s you, little one?"0
Mu Yang stared at Yun Xiaoxiao in astonishment.0
"What are you doing here alone? Where are your parents?"0
Yun Xiaoxiao ignored his question about her parents and gave him a cool glance.0
"You know me?"0
"Don\'t you remember? You came to me to fix your car before," Mu Yang said with a smile.0
He was tall and slim, and when he smiled, he revealed a set of small canine teeth. His eyes crinkled, giving off a sunny disposition.0
Yun Xiaoxiao raised an eyebrow, secretly appraising Mu Yang.0
So it was him!0
When she had seen him before, he had always worn a baseball cap and dirty work clothes, with either a face mask or some grime on his face.0
Now, he was soaking wet and looked quite bedraggled.0
So at first glance, she really hadn\'t recognized him.0
But when he mentioned fixing the car, she remembered.0
She let out a soft "Oh" and turned to walk further inside.0
In this apocalyptic world where humanity and morality had fallen, she trusted no one except her big brother.0
Besides, when she had him fix her car back then, who knew if he had guessed something.0
As Yun Xiaoxiao turned her back, a flash of killing intent passed through her eyes.0
If he dared to have any inappropriate thoughts, she would show no mercy!0
Mu Yang smiled awkwardly and rubbed his nose.0
This little one was as unique as ever.0
"Mu Yang, do you know that little girl?" asked a beautiful woman.0
Mu Yang shook his head. "Not really. I\'ve only seen her a couple of times before."0
He looked in the direction where Yun Xiaoxiao had disappeared, feeling curious.0
How had such a little one managed to survive in this apocalyptic world?0
Recalling how she had asked him to modify her car earlier – a car that was clearly designed to deal with zombies – Mu Yang formed some guesses in his mind, but he didn\'t share any of them with his companions.0
He only said, "Let\'s go in and take a look."0
