End of the World Cycle

After resting for more than ten hours, the discomfort gradually disappeared. After opening his eyes, he felt nothing, but his eyes were a little sore. He climbed out of Shui Liqing's arms and was stunned after seeing the surroundings clearly.

I don't know where he found the pine branches from, but a large bunch of green ones were placed on the table, and there was another bunch next to the driver's seat. Xie Qin rested his elbows on Shui Liqing's chest, and he could see Shui Liqing's face by lowering his head slightly.

"Thank you." Xie Qin just felt that this person was quite considerate and it was very comfortable to get along with him.

"Hoo~"

After getting out of bed, Xie Qin started to take out food. Shui Liqing still had plasma, just because he liked it the most and it was the most sufficient energy for them.

Xie Qin felt a little uncomfortable, so she found her mother's mushroom porridge and ate a small bowl of it along with some side dishes, and she was no longer hungry. It was 10:30 in the morning, and Xie Qin got dressed and called Shui Liqing to clean up the snow around the car before setting off.

As soon as he got down, Xie Qin saw the well-established triangular tent. He looked up at Shui Liqing and couldn't help but give him a thumbs up.

"That's great. I'll take you with me next time."

"Huh!" Shui Liqing let out an excited sound, and his pupil-less eyes seemed to become bright, and he was almost spinning in circles in pride.

It was much more convenient with the triangular tent. All we had to do was to pound the place where the car was going out to form a small slope, and the car could drive out. The next destination was Pujiang City, 30 kilometers away. There was a military supply depot at the prefecture level. This military supply depot was special. It was built in the city, on the underground third floor of the municipal government.

The distance was not far. Three hours later, Xie Qin successfully arrived at the destination, the elevated road outside the city. The city had not been greatly affected before, and not many people died, so the city became a base.

It was also the base that later accepted the most survivors, because they were large and safe. Pujiang City once became the prefecture-level city base with the largest population. Because of the enthusiasm of the natives, the small city was actually crowded with nearly 60 million people. Basically, every household helped outsiders to settle down to the best of their ability, and it was bustling for a long time.

Of course, it later became the prefecture-level city with the largest number of zombies. Even though the snow was five or six meters thick, you could still see zombies roaming densely on the thick snow.

There were too many of them. Even Xie Qin, who had seen strong storms, felt his scalp tingling. The images sent back by the drone showed human heads emerging from the snow. It was unknown how many layers of zombies were buried in the snow.

The shadows moving back and forth in those tall buildings were all zombies. Judging from their agility, they must have mutated and advanced. It's not an exaggeration to say that this is a zombie kingdom.

Xie Qin hesitated for a moment, but when she thought of the arsenal, she felt reluctant to leave. She wasn't afraid of zombies, but there were too many of them and she couldn't kill them all. With so many zombies, the car couldn't get in at all.

"What should I do, Ah Qing? There are so many zombies. When will we be able to kill them all?"

"Huh" Shui Liqing made a huh sound, and then immediately grabbed Xie Qin's hand. A very weak mental power enveloped his whole body. If it weren't for his strong mental power, he wouldn't have been able to notice it at all.

"Yes, you can take me in." Shui Liqing's ability is almost invisibility. At first, even I couldn't detect him and the people he protected.

Now, let alone these low-level zombies. She had previously conducted experiments on Shui Liqing and Xie Ran. As long as Shui Liqing developed his spiritual field, not only zombies, but even humans would be hard to detect if they didn't pay close attention. Even a psychic power user of the fourth level couldn't detect the power level of the person hidden by Shui Liqing.

Undoubtedly, Shui Liqing was a very good medium for hiding herself. But even though she knew Shui Liqing could let her enter the city government, Xie Qin was in a dilemma when she saw that it was seven kilometers away from the city government.

It’s not that Shui Liqing can’t hide a car, but there are too many zombies, and the car’s power is insufficient, so it’s impossible to knock the zombies away and rush in.

"It's so far..." Xie Qin murmured in complaint.

Unexpectedly, the next second, Shui Liqing squatted on the ground, patted his back, and motioned Xie Qin to come up.

Xie Qin was instantly happy. Yes, zombies have great physical strength and are fast. They only need two bags of plasma to accelerate to 100 kilometers per hour. It's comfortable~

After finding a pair of snow-walking shoes for Shui Liqing to wear, Xie Qin jumped onto Shui Liqing's back. He wrapped his hat around his neck, buried his face behind Shui Liqing's shoulders, and set off comfortably, avoiding the wind and snow.

Walking on the road, they gradually merged into the zombie group. The zombies didn't react at all. Shui Liqing was very fast, jogging all the way. Xie Qin fell asleep because of the bounce on his back. It should be because Shui Liqing's shoulders were so broad and it was too comfortable to lean on them.

When he woke up, he was already at the door of the city hall building. Or rather, at the fourth-floor window. Xie Qin rubbed his eyes and jumped down happily.

He raised his hand and smashed the glass. As a result, the dense zombies inside rushed over instantly. Xie Qin was about to use his mental power to crush the brains of these people, but Shui Liqing behind him pulled him into his arms and hugged him. The zombies seemed to be blind and walked away aimlessly.

"Why? Can't I just kill them all?"

"Huh~" Shui Liqing groaned and pointed inside the window. When Xie Qin looked up, she saw nothing but zombies. There were also some second-level zombies jumping up and down. Although they were not scary, so many zombies would definitely delay her time to get things. After thinking about it, she let it go. In the end, she took Shui Liqing's slightly cool big hand and went into the building together.

Xie Qin took a deep breath as he entered. There were too many zombies. Almost every room was filled with beds on the floor. It seemed that this city government had taken in a lot of people.

There were too many zombies. You could bump into zombies while walking. Xie Qin was so annoyed. They all looked hideous and were so close. Especially after going down to the third floor, it was pitch black inside because it was buried in the snow. When you shine a flashlight, you can always see a disgusting and broken face in front of you. You are not in a good mood at all. But in order to save time, you still control the desire to crush these zombies.

It wasn't until we reached the underground first floor that the number of zombies gradually decreased. The place was full of parked cars and there was no place for people to live. There were only dozens of scattered zombies wandering around.

This time, he ran faster, and in three or five minutes he reached the basement level. The basement level was actually a temporary material warehouse, and there were still a lot of materials, most of which were instant foods and staple foods. They had not been soaked in water, and they were clean. After checking, they were still within the shelf life. Xie Qin took them all in one go. It would be a waste if he didn't take them.

When they reached the third floor below ground, the route became complicated. There were no zombies at all, only a heavy titanium alloy door. Xie Qin removed the door vigorously, and everything went smoothly. The warehouse was full of weapons, neatly stacked. Xie Qin was very satisfied. Even the mood that was ruined by the zombies improved.

It took only five minutes to clean up the 2,000 square meters of military supply warehouse. After going out, he raised his hand and threw out a powerful flame, instantly igniting all the cloth in the room.

The zombies' bodies also caught fire. As they kept wandering around, they passed the flames on their bodies to other people again and again. Gradually, the fire spread throughout the entire building. The temperature rose, and it was even obvious that the snow around the building was melting.

It was getting dark, and Xie Qin was not in a hurry anyway. When they reached the top floor of a five-story building about 100 meters away, there were only a few scattered zombies who had no idea how they got there.

After cleaning up, there was a clean open space. They released the RV and the two of them went up to take turns washing themselves and changing into pajamas. Looking at the thick smoke billowing in the distance, they seemed to be able to smell the odor of burnt corpses. Naturally, they had no appetite. They only drank a bowl of chicken soup and ate some refreshing side dishes, then Xie Qin prepared to go to bed.

The food prepared for Shui Liqing was a little richer, including a cup of fresh plasma, whole-cut beef ribs, and some cleaned livers.

He ate slowly, and after finishing his meal, he cleaned up and brushed his teeth. When Shui Liqing looked at Xie Qin again, Xie Qin had fallen asleep, but this man still got into the quilt, gently turned Xie Qin over to face him, pressed his head into the crook of his neck, gently stroked Xie Qin's thighs, and placed them on his waist.

Facing each other, he touched Xie Qin's little face and closed his eyes. In fact, he didn't need to sleep at all, but he always felt happy to be so close to Xie Qin. In the past few days, he also followed Xie Qin's example and closed his eyes to rest. This also led to Xie Qin thinking that the two brothers needed to sleep for a long time.

The next morning, Shui Liqing was called out by Xie Qin to pick up corpse crystals. Almost all the zombies in the building were burned to ashes, and the corpse crystals fell all over the ground. Because they were crystal clear, they were particularly easy to identify. The fire was also gradually extinguished before dawn because the melted snow water seeped in.

After breakfast, Shui Liqing came back with two bags of corpse crystals, almost all of which were first-level corpse crystals, with only eleven second-level ones.

Xie Qin changed to base upgrade experience. The progress bar didn't move at all, not even a splash of water. This thing is really not as good as gold and jade. If I had known earlier, I would have changed it to points.

After Shui Liqing came out of the shower, Xie Qin was holding a tablet and looking at the map of Pujiang City. He found the large-scale square cabin hospital and shelter they built later. And the first Class 3A hospital. Xie Qin was ready to go there.

If you are lucky and encounter many pregnant zombies, this trip will not be in vain.

Shui Liqing was still carrying Xie Qin on his back walking in the snow, and they soon arrived at the Grade A hospital. Although there were zombies in the hospital, it felt a little bit strange compared to the outside. Walking further inside, Xie Qin found many corpses, all of which had their crystal cores removed. It seemed that someone had been here before.

The blade used to take out the crystal core was clean and sharp, using the same technique. It should have been done by only one person, but not many zombies had their crystal cores taken. They were cut in a straight line, and it seemed more like they were clearing a path and taking out their crystal cores by the way.

That direction was the direction of obstetrics and gynecology. Xie Qin suddenly thought of a person, the original heroine of this world, 'Ning Cheng'. If he hadn't read the book, Ning Cheng should be the only one in this world who knew that there was a third-level corpse crystal in the belly of a pregnant zombie.

With a curious mindset, Xie Qin went in. As expected, there were a large number of pregnant zombies in the obstetrics and gynecology department. The number was so large that it was exciting.

It's not hard to imagine how much money the people who took these zombie cores made. She wasn't sure who it was, so she had to ask Xiaobao.

[Master, the distance is too far, and there is no medium, I can't see who it is. ]

[If she is really the heroine in the book, then she also has a system, right? ]

【Yes. 】

[Can she know that I have a system? ]

[No. Systems cannot sense each other. No matter their level, they cannot know each other's existence.]

[Can her system check my strength? ]

[Yes, you can.]

[Is there any way to prevent her from discovering my supernatural state? ]

[Of course, the secret capsule in the mall can help you. It only costs 888 points and is valid for 8 days. Within eight days, no one will know your superpowers. In everyone's eyes, you are just a little girl without superpowers.]

[Great, this thing is useful to me. I'll change 10 of them first.]

[Good master~ This time, 8888 points are consumed. I wish you a happy shopping. 】

Just in case, Xie Qin took one directly. Then Shui Liqing carried Xie Qin to the makeshift square cabin hospital. If that person had not left, he would definitely have gone there.

The Fangcang Hospital was quite far away, and it was already 4pm when we arrived. As soon as he entered the area, Xie Qin noticed something was wrong. A huge excavator was parked right above the Fangcang Hospital.

The hospital was buried in the snow. The two of them walked cautiously towards the excavator. They didn't see anyone, but looking at the thin layer of snow on the excavator, it should not have been parked here for long. After hesitating for a while, Xie Qin did not go down. When she was not sure who the other party was and what his strength was, she did not want to take any risks.

After all, life is the most important thing to her. But she didn't want to leave like this, so she found a dead tree. The tree was half buried, but there were many dead branches. She could hide her body a little behind it and it was not easy to be discovered.

After waiting for a while, Xie Qin felt a little cold. After all, the temperature was more than 60 degrees below zero. Even the most powerful fire-type mutant could not stand it.

Shui Liqing was not afraid of the cold, but she still wore a big down jacket. After taking a look at Shui Liqing, Xie Qin walked in front of Shui Liqing. Shui Liqing's temperature would not change. She had measured it and it was always at a constant temperature of 15 degrees. 15 degrees was very comfortable for Xie Qin. She directly unzipped Shui Liqing's clothes and wrapped herself in front of Shui Liqing's chest.

Shui Liqing immediately understood what Xie Qin meant, and hugged Xie Qin tighter, trying to make himself as small as possible, wrapping most of his down jacket around Xie Qin.

"It's warmer." Xie Qin said softly.

Shui Liqing, whose chin rested on Xie Qin's head, also smiled gently and obediently accompanied Xie Qin in waiting for the person she was curious about.
