An Ran felt a slight displeasure when she saw Xu Wei swiftly end the zombies.
Su Ye was too selfish. Why not share good things when they were teammates, adventuring to find supplies to build the base and benefit everyone.
After the zombies were dealt with, An Ran looked at Qiao Ci with dissatisfaction, "Everyone is working for your base. You have medicine that can make zombies not attack, why didn't you share it and used it yourself first! You protected yourself well while putting us in danger. Don't you think you are being excessive?"
Qiao Ci was also bewildered by the zombies ignoring her. She was ready to unleash a massacre, but the great saber she swung was just a performance for nothing.
Su Ye pointed to his cape and explained to Qiao Ci with an innocent expression, "Before coming here, I sprinkled a layer of anti-zombie powder on myself and the rest on this cape. There's no extra for now."
"If we use it, we all use it. If we don't, no one uses it. We came together, don't we have any team spirit? Who would dare to work for the base in the future? My brother was almost bitten by a zombie just now. Even ability users can be reinfected with the zombie virus. You are too selfish!" An Ran seized the opportunity to scold Su Ye and indirectly criticize Qiao Ci.
"Are you kidding me? If I have the powder, should I not use it and wait to die? Moreover, I already said that the zombie powder was sprinkled on the cape and A'Ci didn't know about it. Why are you always targeting A'Ci? Furthermore, the reason the zombies swarmed us and your brother Xu Wei was almost bitten, wasn't it because you accidentally stepped on glass and made a noise? Do you only blame others and never reflect on yourself?" Su Ye didn't want to talk much to her, but he couldn't help but retort when he heard her speaking loudly to Qiao Ci.
An Ran was rendered speechless and harbored resentment in her heart. As a man, how could he argue with a woman? Did he have no manners at all? What a waste of his god-like handsome face!
At this moment, Su Ye's faint voice reached her ears, "If I saw correctly just now, those zombies weren't targeting you either, but Xu Wei. Can I reasonably suspect that you also have something on you that makes zombies avoid it? Why aren't you sharing it then?"
An Ran suddenly felt a chill, as if his gaze could see through her and uncover all her secrets.
"Enough! We are out here to find supplies, not to quarrel. Do you want to attract all the zombies?!" Xu Wei immediately reprimanded. An Ran's identity as the Zombie Emperor was his biggest trump card and absolutely could not be known by these people.
An Ran immediately became honest, and Su Ye stopped talking. He just looked at Qiao Ci pitifully, as if being bullied. Qiao Ci tiptoed and ruffled his hair, giving him a reassuring look. Understanding her comfort, Su Ye smiled, his lips red and teeth white, exceptionally pleasing to the eye. Qiao Ci noticed that since they confirmed their relationship, the little one smiled more and more. Seeing him smile brilliantly and joyfully, Qiao Ci, infected by him, couldn't help but curve her lips. Sweet love was back, it felt so good~
Qiao Ci, An Ran, and Wang Yang were assigned to a group to search for everyday special medicines nearby and to scout. Su Ye, with his spatial ability, went with Xu Wei and Yu Hao to clear out all the medicine from the warehouse.
When Su Ye and the other two arrived at the warehouse, Xu Wei told him about some things to pay attention to, then said to Yu Hao, "By the way, Ranran said that the warehouse across the corridor should have a lot of stock, but she can't remember clearly. Let her take her time collecting it. Let's go see what's over there first." Yu Hao nodded in agreement and then said to Su Ye, "If anything happens, just call out, and I'll be there immediately." "Mm," Su Ye replied indifferently.
Not long after they left, two mutated zombies suddenly darted into the warehouse and lunged fiercely at Su Ye, as if they were specifically targeting him. Su Ye stopped collecting supplies and calmly looked at the two ugly mutated zombies. He activated his mental ability to lock onto them, and then the zombies' movements seemed to freeze. Next, he pulled out a knife and fiercely stabbed it into the head of one of them. The other zombie broke free from the mental control and, sensing danger, tried to escape. At this moment, Yu Hao had already rushed over. Su Ye's eyes flashed, he forcefully bumped his arm against a nearby shelf and fell to the ground.
"Are you alright?" After dealing with the mutated zombies, Yu Hao helped Su Ye up, his expression serious as he analyzed, "Mutated zombies rarely act together. Why would they attack you simultaneously? Have they evolved again?"
Xu Wei looked at the mutated zombie with a knife stuck in its head and his eyes widened in surprise, "You killed this mutated zombie?" Su Ye did not deny it, "Seeing them pounce on me, I subconsciously picked up a knife. I didn't expect my luck to be so good and hit the mark directly. Don't tell A'Ci, I'm afraid she'll worry."
Xu Wei didn't believe him and had already concluded that he not only had spatial abilities but also other abilities, possibly more than one. He, who was considered a genius, only had two abilities, while the seemingly weak Su Ye might have three. Xu Wei felt utterly dejected!
At the same time, An Ran, who had claimed to be unwell and was resting with her eyes closed, suddenly turned pale and almost vomited a mouthful of blood, which she forcefully suppressed and swallowed. The red light in her eyes faded as she opened them. Controlling mutated zombies indeed consumed a lot of energy, but if she could see Qiao Ci in pain, it would be worth it! As for whether Su Ye was innocent or not… well, since he was blind enough to fall for Qiao Ci, he deserved to die!
After the three of them gathered some scattered medicines, An Ran had also recovered. She proactively suggested meeting up with Xu Wei and the others. When she saw Su Ye appear unharmed, An Ran looked utterly incredvito. However, when she noticed what seemed to be bloodstains on the sleeve of his right arm, her eyes lit up again. Could it be? Was he bitten? She eagerly stepped forward to express her concern, "Are you alright? Why is there blood on your arm? Oh my gosh, were you bitten by a zombie?"
Qiao Ci saw Su Ye's abnormal complexion from afar and walked over, taking his right arm to examine it, "What happened?" "It's nothing," Su Ye said, reaching out his left hand to rub Qiao Ci's hair. Despite saying he was fine, his face grew paler.
Finally, Yu Hao stepped forward to explain the situation. When she learned that Su Ye wasn't bitten, An Ran was somewhat dazed. Even Xu Wei had to fight in a disheveled manner against the two mutated zombies, while Su Ye had only injured his arm? However, she dared not show her surprise too obviously at this moment. She lowered her head slightly, her expression looking rather ferocious.
"Does it hurt?" Qiao Ci rolled up his sleeve and saw his arm was bruised and bleeding. She pursed her lips. "It doesn't hurt," Su Ye said, enjoying Qiao Ci personally applying medicine to him. Although he claimed it didn't hurt, he still let out soft "hissing" sounds, acting as if he was on his last breath, revealing his hypocrisy to the fullest. A grown man, as delicate as a porcelain doll.
