Chapter 548: Apocalypse: The True Daughter of Wealth Turns to Ashes (19)

The car stopped a few hundred meters away from the highway exit.

From the front windshield, one could see dense crowds of zombies surging at the junction.

It was as if there was something attracting the zombies at the highway exit, even forming a small zombie tide.

Moreover, many people had appeared on their side, yet the zombies didn’t come their way but instead kept wandering around the highway exit, which was problematic.

Besides them, other similar teams of mercenaries continued to arrive.

After more than ten minutes, the military team they had called also arrived.

The military was represented by a middle-aged man, who, after getting out of the car, gathered everyone together.

He then deployed the troops to encircle the zombie horde from four directions and annihilate them.

Originally, Fei Wenxi and the others intended for Luo Ning to stay in the SUV and not get out.

However, Luo Ning declined and stated that since the apocalypse had begun, she had killed zombies before and wanted to contribute some effort and train herself.

Fei Wenxi and the others felt that Luo Ning was being somewhat willful.

This was a zombie tide; they might not even come out alive from their mission, how could such a delicate young girl help?

This wasn’t the time to train!

Not just Fei Wenxi and the others, even Shen Yan disagreed, looking at Luo Ning, "Ningning, there’ll be plenty of opportunities to train later. This is too dangerous, get back in the car."

He felt that his sister killing zombies must have been those that were isolated.

This was a zombie tide, and he wasn’t at all comfortable with his sister joining the mission.

Luo Ning insisted, "Brother, I have the space superpower, I can teleport to dodge."

"This is just a small zombie tide, when we head north in the future, we might encounter more dangers. I can’t possibly hide behind you guys forever."

"I want to exert some effort; please let me try, if it doesn’t work, I’ll head back to the car."

Hearing her, although Fei Wenxi and the others felt she was being willful, they had a better impression of her.

After all, she was right, they could only protect her so much, but if they encountered dangers they themselves couldn’t avoid, what could she do?

They were also surprised, obviously not expecting the young girl to have awoken a superpower, a rare space superpower no less.

Wu Chang said, "Let’s let Luo Ning try then."

Shen Yan compressed his lips, looked at his sister’s determined gaze, sighed, "Alright, then stay close to me. If it gets too hard, run back to the car immediately."

Luo Ning flashed a big smile, "Thank you, brother!"

With time being critical, everyone didn’t speak further and followed the teams that were assigned and rushed out.

Luo Ning grabbed the long spear she was accustomed to from the car, and Shen Yan and the others also grabbed their weapons.

The military side started with a few rounds of machine gun fire, wiping out half of the zombies.

The remaining zombies gained some awareness, deliberately moving their heads to dodge the machine gun fire.

If the head wasn’t blasted, it didn’t matter where the bullets hit.

With many zombies here, snipers couldn’t be used.

Thus, the remaining zombies, almost half, required close combat.

The four teams surrounded from all directions and quickly charged into the horde of zombies.

The zombies also ferociously began to fight back.

Shen Yan and the others were worried about Luo Ning, so while slashing zombies, they kept an eye on her.

They saw Luo Ning with her long spear, moving agilely and charging into the horde, followed by every stab of her spear bursting a zombie’s head.

She was doing even better than them.

They were stunned. What happened to the delicate young girl they expected?

No wonder Luo Ning wasn’t afraid to come help; her strength was not any less than theirs.

They were using superpowers to slaughter zombies, but Luo Ning was solely using a long spear to continuously blast zombie heads, forcefully impressive.

Not just them being stunned, seeing this, others were also surprised, obviously not expecting such a pretty but not muscular girl to be so fierce.

The slaughter continued.

Though these zombies had not evolved yet, nor had any developed spiritual intelligence,

they would instinctively surround those they perceived as a threat.

Luo Ning was quickly surrounded by over a dozen zombies.

Even worse, a zombie suddenly attacked from behind.

Seeing this, Shen Yan’s eyes reddened, "Ningning, be careful!"

He desperately rushed in that direction.

Mi Yan and the others also noticed the danger of Luo Ning being ambushed by the zombies and, startled, they too rushed over.

Just as everyone saw the zombie only an inch away from Luo Ning’s back, certain to be captured, the standing Luo Ning suddenly disappeared.

Everyone thought they were seeing things.

Soon they realized they weren’t seeing things; Luo Ning had disappeared and then suddenly reappeared, a long spear from behind piercing through the attacking zombie’s head.

Luo Ning then reappeared in everyone’s field of vision.

Fei Wenxi was stunned, murmuring to himself, "Can Space superpowers be used like that?"

He mainly used his space superpower to store things and had never seen it used this way before.

Seeing Luo Ning’s way of fighting also gave him quite a bit of inspiration.

He even tried on the spot whether he could use his space superpower to move instantly, but he failed.

After several failures, he gave up.

He suspected that Luo Ning’s space superpower might be a mutation, different from his.

Over an hour later, the last zombie was killed.

Everyone was gasping for breath, tired, and found places to sit down and rest.

Luo Ning had killed quite a few zombies and was also tired from the physical exertion, sitting down to rest as well.

Mi Yan looked at her with admiration, "Ningning, you’re amazing."

She had thought she was a bronze little sister who needed their protection, but it turned out she was actually a champion.

Luo Ning smiled at Mi Yan, "Thank you for the compliment, Sister Mi."

"Can your space superpower store things?" Fei Wenxi asked.

Luo Ning nodded, "Yes! The second day after the apocalypse began, I accidentally awakened my superpower and luckily managed to gather some supplies."

Now that they were a team, she couldn’t possibly keep things to herself for eating and using, so it was better to be open about it from the start.

Fei Wenxi asked curiously, "How did you manage to disappear and then appear?"

Luo Ning had already thought of an excuse, "I mentally chant ’move,’ and my body can instantly move back and forth within about a meter."

"Because it’s instant teleportation, it seems to you guys like I’ve disappeared and then reappeared."

This was actually a function of space she had figured out herself.

After all, she could enter the space, which was a strong protection and a killer move.

She had tried before; she could decide any place she wanted to come out as long as it was within three meters of her point of entry.

To others, she only mentioned one meter.

Therefore, while killing zombies in the previous twenty days, she also continuously trained this ability.

Otherwise, her space superpower would be quite useless except for storing things; she had to dig deep to ensure her own safety and demonstrate absolute strength.

Hearing her say this, Fei Wenxi tried the same method, but still couldn’t do it.

"Your space superpower might be a mutation, different from mine; mine can’t teleport instantly," he admitted truthfully.

Luo Ning feigned surprise on her face, "Maybe so."

Fei Wenxi and the others weren’t jealous but were instead glad that her space superpower could be used in combat, making their squad stronger.

They had thought she would be a drag, but turned out to be delightfully mistaken.

While they were talking, a military off-road vehicle, seemingly more sophisticated than Luo Ning’s, approached from a distance, quickly closing in.

The off-road vehicle stopped at the highway intersection, where the zombie horde had previously gathered.

A person got out of the vehicle first and went to open the passenger side.

A strikingly handsome man with a frosty demeanor stepped down from the vehicle.

Then three more people got out from the back, showing great respect towards the man.

When Luo Ning saw the handsome man, her eyes narrowed.
