Chapter 16: Attack

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Facing this book, Yun You’s expression could not help but become serious. She had the urge to lock herself in for three days just to study the book. She couldn’t help it. This book gave her the feeling that it recorded many unknown secrets, like a watchman of an era.

Big Orange’s expression also became serious. Its cat eyes narrowed slightly, and it no longer lazed around like before. Its sharp eyes stared at the book in Yun You’s hand.

It had a very strong feeling that this book was very related to it. It was as if this book was here because of it, but it was certain that this was the first time it had seen this book.

Yun You flipped to the first page, and the girl and cat held their breaths.

On the first page was a jumping number. It read:

At 12:00:00, the function was activated.

11:59:59

58, 57, 56…

The man and cat who surrounded the book without blinking, afraid that they would miss the exciting moment: “…”

They had been excited for nothing.

“Meow, whose design is this? This kind of gift bag actually has a cooldown countdown. Meow, it’s ridiculous!” Big Orange rubbed its claws in frustration.

Yun You exhaled. “Phew, alright, don’t grab the sofa. Won’t we know what this is tomorrow?”

At this moment, Han Qichuan, who had finished washing the dishes, came out. He happened to see Big Orange rolling on the sofa with a meow. It could be seen that he was in a bad mood.

He looked at Yun You in confusion.

Understanding the meaning in his eyes, Yun You smiled and explained, “It got offended by a book. Let it play for a while.”

Big Orange’s dissatisfied voice became louder.

“Hey, hey, you can roll around, but you can’t scratch the sofa.”

In Cang Qing’s camp.

The battle had long ended. The low-level zombies did not break through the defense line at all under the obstruction of the offense-ability users. A few who broke through died under the subsequent defense line.

As soon as the defensive wall was repaired, the members immediately retreated, leaving only a group of zombies screaming outside. After finding nothing, they left one by one.

He Linbing did not know if she should be happy or not. She wanted to test the new weapon, but after thinking about it, everyone’s safety was the most important.

“Let’s go. The leader called us over for a meeting.” Cheng Jun patted He Linbing.

“Okay, let’s go,” He Linbing replied.

In a temporary house.

Other than the people who are on standby duty, the rest were all present.

“What is everyone’s opinion on today’s attack?” A middle-aged man in his thirties said.

This person was the leader of this operation. He was a mid-stage Level 3 ability user and was not the highest-level member of this operation. Although it was not high, in this situation where even Level 4 was very rare, his strength was enough.

Moreover, his qualifications were enough to convince people. He had gone on many missions. In the beginning, he, who was at Level 2, had killed Level 3 mutant plants.

“This must be man-made. It’s impossible for the zombies outside to break our defense.”

“I agree too. Moreover, there was a group of zombies surrounding it as soon as it was broken. It’s obvious that someone lured it over.”

“However, why would someone so that? Those zombies are not our match at all. They can’t even exhaust our combat strength.”

“Good point.”

After the final discussion of the search route, everyone dispersed.

“After that, everyone, be careful when you move during the day.” The leader was still a little worried and said, “There might be another attack tonight. Be careful.”

They left the temporary meeting room.

He Linbing’s right eye kept twitching, and she felt uneasy.

“Hey! What’s wrong? You don’t look very well.” Cheng Jun jumped out from behind He Linbing and circled her twice. He touched his chin and said suspiciously, “You’re not scared, are you?”

He Linbing rolled her eyes and ignored him.

“Don’t go! Alright, alright. I was just joking. What’s wrong?” Cheng Jun said seriously.

He Linbing stopped in her tracks. “I’m feeling a little uneasy. I feel like something bad is going to happen.”

In an underground laboratory in the apocalypse.

A black shadow flashed into the laboratory.

“How’s the situation?”

“Just as we planned, Cang Qing’s people are starting to be vigilant.”

“Then, let’s move!”

“Yes!”

In the laboratory, the man in the white coat stopped observing the microscope, took off his gloves, and walked to another room to rest.

He closed his eyes and smiled. He hoped that Cang Qing’s people wouldn’t waste his reminder. He had to use his strongest combat power! He also wanted to test the quality of his products.

In Cang Qing’s camp.

Boom—

With a loud bang, the wall collapsed again. It was in the same position and shape, and the intention was very obvious.

“F*ck.” The staff on duty couldn’t help but curse.

“Warning, enemy attack.”

Listening to the commotion outside, He Linbing said, “They’re indeed here.”

Roar—

An earth-shattering roar sounded.

In White Clouds store.

Because she was bored, Yun You was playing chess with Han Qichuan while Big Orange sat at the side and watched the game.

Because Han Qichuan had never played before, he was tortured by Yun You. Seeing that Han Qichuan’s face was getting darker and darker, Yun You secretly let him win two rounds.

Just as he was in the mood, the noise outside came.

[Speaking of which, why are they fighting again?] Yun You complained to Big Orange.

[Meow, you’re asking me. I don’t know either? This is the first time I’ve followed you here. Perhaps the apocalypse is like this.] Big Orange tilted its head and watched the game.

At this moment, Han Qichuan suddenly raised his head and looked in the direction of the voice, his eyes dark.

“What’s wrong?” Yun You asked curiously.

Big Orange also tilted its head and looked at him.

“I don’t know. That voice sounds so familiar.”

“I’ll go over there and take a look,” Han Qichuan replied. He stood up and prepared to go downstairs.

“Wait, you haven’t recovered from your injuries?” Yun You grabbed his sleeve.

“It’s a small injury.” Han Qichuan broke free. His expression was serious and he frowned slightly. “Don’t worry about me. I should be very good at fighting.”

Han Qichuan turned around and ran, leaving behind one last sentence. “Don’t come. It’s dangerous.”

When Yun You chased after him downstairs, Han Qichuan had already opened the shop door and run away.

“…”

She really did not know who was the injured one here.

She briefly thought about whether what was left in the system could guarantee his safety.

‘I don’t think I can be sure?’

Forget it, she believed in the system’s quality.

Yun You shouted at Big Orange, who had followed her, “Big Orange, you remember the scent, right? Hurry up and lead the way.”

“Are you sure you want to go?” Big Orange was puzzled.

“Of course. The starting mission has already ran off.”

“Meow, let’s go.”

Big Orange ran forward.

Yun You closed the shop door and chased after Big Orange.

A human and a cat ran towards that dangerous place.
