After a long day, there were still many zombies to kill.
Liu Fangzhou thought for the whole day and finally walked to Shen Shian at noon the next day. “Brother Shen, I am ready.”
Shen Shian asked, “Are there any zombies nearby?”
“There are six, two in the east and four in the north, one of which is a mutated zombie. The rest are ordinary zombies.”
It’s okay, it’s not too difficult for beginners. After confirming that he was wearing long-sleeved trousers, gloves, and masks, Shen Shian handed him a thorn stick. “Just think of it as a scalpel, aim at the eye socket and the nape. There is no bone blocking there, so it is soft and easy to break through. If you miss, run immediately. Don’t let the zombies approach you, and don’t let them surround you.”
Liu Fangzhou clenched the thorn stick and his palm was sweating. “En.”
Seeing his pale face, Chen Nan couldn’t help but want to laugh. If Jiamu is still alive, he may look the same when facing the zombies. He asked Shen Shian, “Brother Shen, would you like me to go with him?”
Shen Shian shook his head, “Now the crystal nuclei are sufficient. Your most important task is to practice your ability. The sooner you can turn it into an ability that can be used in a fight, the better.” He turned around and looked at the child licking a lollipop. “Xun Xun, how about I give you a duty?”
Shen Xun hasn’t answered yet and Liu Fangzhou’s legs stopped trembling and he wasn’t sweating anymore. He was immediately enthusiastic, “Brother Xun will go with me? That would be great!”
“He won’t help you kill the zombies, nor help you attract the attention of the zombies.” Shen Shian poured the cold water. He squatted down and looked at the child. “You just have to make sure he doesn’t turn into a zombie and that he should come back.”
Shen Xun rolled his eyes, “Can I order at noon?”
Shen Shian, “We won’t eat sweet potatoes today, keep it within 8 dishes.”
After five minutes, Shen Xun walked in front with a lollipop and Liu Fangzhou followed him step by step. “Brother Xun, please slow down. There is a stone ahead, I will remove it for you. Are you thirsty? Do you want to drink? That knife looks a bit heavy.”
When the two people returned, it was earlier than Shen Shian had expected. Shen Xun happily jumped up and down, holding crystal nuclei and ran over to him. “An An, for you.”
The crystal nuclei were washed clearly through the water and were very clean. Shen Shian counted thirteen crystal nuclei and turned to look at Liu Fangzhou, who was far behind. “Isn’t there only one mutated zombie?”
Liu Fangzhou panted, sitting on the ground as soon as he stopped. He looked rather flustered, but his expression was very enthusiastic. “There was indeed only one within a kilometer. We walked to the east for another distance before we discovered that there was a gas station nearby, and a group of zombies gathered around. There were a total of 142 zombies densely wandering in the middle of the abandoned vehicles. It looked really scary but brother Xun was so cool, he rushed to them. It’s no exaggeration, he was like chopping melons and cutting vegetables. All the zombies were resolved, and the zombies were as if they could not see him.”
142 zombies, 13 of which have mutated. It seemed that outside Lin’an County, the proportion of mutated zombies has indeed remained at about one-tenth. He just didn’t know what was happening in cities with a concentrated population. Shen Shian thought about it, and praised the child, “Xun Xun, you are awesome.” Then he looked at Liu Fangzhou, “What about you?”
“Ah here is what I pulled out of the head of the zombie. I have washed it according to brother Xun’s instruction.” Liu Fangzhou passed the crystal nucleus clenched in his palm. “The mutated zombie was so fast, I was almost overtaken by it. Fortunately, there was a convenience store next to the gas station. The zombie chased me around the convenience store, and when it could not see me around the corner, I could still sense it. I then suddenly turned around and caught it off guard. I stabbed right at the white dot in the gray light, hehehe, right in the middle of its eyes.”
After he finished speaking, he lifted his chin high, and his eyes were twinkling at Shen Shian.
It took Shen Shian two seconds to realize that he wanted to praise him. He raised his hand and patted on his shoulder. “You are also awesome.” Then the crystal nucleus was put away. “Let’s eat.”
Liu Fangzhou’s cheeks flushed with excitement, and Shen Xun’s kicked on his leg. The teenager just wanted to shout and was glared at by the child.
After eating and drinking for a while, Shen Shian took out the map to check the route. Chen Nan held a flower pot and focused on producing more grass seeds. Liu Fangzhou was sitting on the curb and was preoccupied with his high IQ thinking. His thinking was meticulous and he discovered something that Chen Nan had not noticed. His heart seemed to be scratched by a cat’s paws for a long time, and finally, he couldn’t hold it back. He braced himself and went over to Shen Xun “Brother Xun, let me ask you something, what kind of ability do you have to be able to make the zombies ignore you?”
Shen Xun ignored him with a strawberry in his mouth.
Liu Fangzhou didn’t mind either. In his mind, he was thinking it was obvious that Shen Xun had an ability that boosts his strength, and if his guess was correct, he could also make the zombies ignore him. “Brother Xun, do you have two abilities?”
Shen Xun finished eating the strawberry, smacked his lips, but still ignored him.
Liu Fangzhou continued trying to figure out. Brother Xun also forced him to “speak the truth to An An”, “don’t ask An An” and “anything that An An said must never be told to others” Then, “Brother Xun, do you have three abilities?”
Shen Xun was annoyed. He bared his teeth and growled at him.
Liu Fangzhou turned pale and immediately ran far away. “No question, no question, no question.”
Tch, our brother Xun is really a mysterious man.
In the next few days, not only urging Liu Fangzhou to confront the zombies head-on, enhancing his guts and fighting experience, Shen Shian also taught Chen Nan to drive. “This way we can switch in the future. If we encounter something similar to Lin’an County or in an emergency, I need you to drive away when necessary.”
Chen Nan was not hypocritical. Firstly, once they take turns driving, he could relieve brother Shen’s burden. Secondly, he was very clear that at present, he and Liu Fangzhou were the weakest in the team. In the face of fierce battles, they would probably drag Shen Shian down. Sometimes, they must first protect themselves before brother Shen can worry about it. Besides, who doesn’t want to drive?
Liu Fangzhou looked at the off-road vehicle enviously, “Brother Shen, I also want to learn.”
Shen Shian refused, “You are not qualified.” In other words, the other party has not fully won his trust.
The teenager collapsed and squatted on the ground to pull the grass.
Shen Xun immediately raised his hand, “An An, I also want to learn.”
Shen Shian also refused, “You aren’t tall enough.”
The child was depressed and turned to step on Liu Fangzhou’s feet.
