Chapter 189

Ye MingYe was concentrating on perceiving the abnormal surges of energy when a small soft hand tugged him. His heart jumped. He wasn’t even able to react by jerking away. Instead, he turned his head around in shock.

“There’s something inside. Be careful.” XunMi leaned in towards Ye MingYe and spoke softly. Warm air blew into his ear, itchy and gentle, making his heart shake. He almost didn’t even hear Xunmi’s words. When he finally could react, he pulled Ling Chen back.

XunMi nodded towards Ye MingYe and pulled out a gun from her space inventory. “I can’t tell if its’ power is speed or invisibility, it’s position is changing too quickly.” She readied her gun as her earth ability prepared itself for action.

Ye MingYe furrowed his brows and walked forward. Looking at the golden password encrypted door, fiddled with it for a few minutes. Click! A faint clicking sound came from the door. It was open.

XunMi reached her hands out and let her powers flow out towards the direction of the red dots on her map. Green vines appeared from her hands and charged at the chaotic group of zombies.

“Speed abilities. They’re third level zombies.” Ye MingYe’s eyes were steady. How did third level zombies already appear now? But he knew now was not the time to be overthinking. A purple lightning energy. It’s flashing became larger and larger. After waiting for the right timing, he shot out an electric bolt, instantly frying any zombies still moving. A burnt smell entered the air. XunMi wrinkled her nose, disgusted by the sight.

Ye MingYe thought XunMi couldn’t bare the smell. He acted before he even processed his thoughts. A fireball completely covered the corpses of the zombies laying on the ground, leaving only ashes. Only after he had finished did he realize how excessive his reaction was. Frustration filled him.

He shouldn’t let his heart soften. He shouldn’t forget what happened in the past. Damn it, what poison did he drink? Why did he always lose himself as soon as he saw her?

XunMi didn’t give Ye MingYe much time for soul searching. “We need to move quickly. The zombies outside are coming.” Based on their fight just now, it seemed like her dear husband’s OPness was quite large. He could kill third level zombies in one swipe. It looked like she really did need to perform well. She didn’t want her husband to accidentally kill her out of revenge. She would be very upset.

Ye MingYe pushed open a small side door and took out all the sniper rifles inside. He told Ling Chen to go collect the things in the two other rooms and then meet up again at the exit. XunMi took some pistols from the common room but didn’t touch the others.  She couldn’t help but sigh. Her husband truly was the biggest golden touch of them all. No, he was a golden thigh.  She definitely needed to hug onto his golden thigh. The three moved quickly to empty out the entire arsenal. She once again witnessed how large her husband’s space inventory abilities were.

Her space inventory was a gift from the system for storage purposes. Although it was very large, it really wasn’t as OP as her husband’s. Ye MingYe was actually as surprised as XunMi. In the previous lifetime, XunMi only had water abilities. Now, she had gained space inventory along with earth ability. Even her attack style had become much more sharp and clean. This was completely different than the fragile and weak her in the previous life.

“Wow, we were still one step too slow.” When they exited, there were already a large crowd of zombies outside. XunMi helplessly looked on. Even if they avoided them this way or that, zombies were still ultimately unavoidable. “Fastest solution for the best decision.” Ye MingYe’s lightning ball of electricity was already flashing in his hands.

XunMi’s water wall steadily grew wider. “Ye ge, throw your lightning through the hole I’ll create in the wall. We’ll finish them off together. It’ll save time.” XunMi said while expanding the wall.

Ye MingYe didn’t respond but his adjusting hands demonstrated that he was following her suggestion.

XunMi waited for the right timing and pushed the water wall forward. Ye MingYe’s lightning also made its way through the wall and towards the zombies. Everything it touched turned into a mix of burnt flesh and ash. Water naturally was conductive for electric. When the two came together, there could only be disasterous results.

Ling Chen stood on the side in shock. So this was a technique too?? Wow, he suddenly felt that the zombies were a bit pitiful.

With the two working together, they quickly cleared out the entire place. XunMi pulled her car back out and jumped in. She inserted the keys, removed the safety brake, and positioned her foot right above the gas pedal, ready to leave whenever needed.

“Get in.” Her wall of waves rose again. Ye MingYe also added some electricity inside, so that the flowing water made sss-sss sounds. If anyone tried to charge at them, they would definitely become fried squid.

Ling Chen didn’t know how to feel anymore.  He could only think of one thing: XunMi and his boss were actually very compatible. Look at how they attacked together. And their strength, their attractiveness, were really all compatible.

XunMi stepped on the pedal. The sports car was like a shooting arrow, flying straight out. The sudden acceleration almost made the unprepared Ling Chen fly out of his seat. Luckily, he reacted quickly and grabbed the back of the seat in front of him. XunMi only began to relax off the gas pedal when they reached the highway.

“I think we’ve gone the wrong way.” XunMi looked at the rows of cars in front of them.  They couldn’t get to the front of the line.

“This is the only road out of S city and heading towards B city. Every other road is blocked.” Ye MingYe hadn’t come to S city in his previous life but he was very familiar with S city’s information.

“Alright, then we can only wait. It’s just that..”

“There’s too many people here. It will attract zombies easily.” Ye MingYe finished XunMi’s thought. He furrowed his brows and looked in Ling Chen’s direction. Ling Chen understood immediately. He got out and headed towards the others to get information. After passing ten cars, Ling Chen stopped next to a middle-aged man with his window down. “Brother, I have a question. What’s going on? Why isn’t anyone moving?” He pulled out a cigarette from his jacket pocket and gave the man one. The middle-aged man gently accepted the cigarette. Even though it had only been a few days into the apocalypse, these things were already had already become precious.

“The military is up front. They’re saying that they are going to take survivors up to B city. Everyone’s registering now. If you got a car, you’re driving in. If not, then you’re getting on the trucks the military brought over. Either way, you’re going through their inspections first.Ai but who knows when it’s gonna be our turn. Staying idle here isn’t safe either. What if one of those things comes over? Brother, let me tell you. If your behind me, you should probably find a place to hide first. I’m stuck here now. Even if I want to leave, I can’t.” The middle-aged man sighed. His car was stuck in the middle of the line now.

Ling Chen gave the man another cigarette and politely said his greetings before leaving.
