TSIAGBICATMWI Chapter 42

Chapter 42: Fierce Battle

The battle was on the verge of erupting, and Xie YunChuan dared not be careless. He wove a cage out of vines, trapping Luo Shuyou and White Tiger Cub inside. “White Tiger Cub, protect your master!” He was frightened by Luo Shuyou’s previous habit of running around, so he had no choice but to confine him. Fortunately, the vine cage could also protect him for a while.

To appease Luo Shuyou, he thoughtfully made the vines bloom with a few small flowers. Luo Shuyou was indeed captivated and began to study them intently, without making a fuss.

Seeing this, Gu Tangxi, while fighting, took the time to say, “Can’t you make one for my Yueyue too?” This stingy ghost, didn’t you promise to protect Gu Tangyue?

Hearing this, Xie YunChuan raised his hand and gently waved, and countless vines emerged, similarly surrounding Gu Tangyue. His main purpose in confining Luo Shuyou was to prevent him from running around, and he hadn’t really thought too much about it.

But since Gu Tangxi requested it, it was an easy thing to do.

The remaining Wu Yunbin and Zhou Zhongxiang: “…!” They were speechless. Was there no one to care about their life or death?

Chen Jie, lying on the ground with his hand covering his profusely bleeding neck and wailing, was thinking: I’m about to die and no one cares. Damn it, when I become a zombie, I’ll bite you all to death!!

Xie YunChuan and Gu Tangxi, who were fiercely fighting on this side, didn’t have that much energy to care about the life or death of others. Xie YunChuan didn’t hide his strength anymore, using ice spikes, water blasts, and vine nets.

Every time they were in a precarious situation, Xie YunChuan would come up with another skill. Gu Tangxi was numb, throwing a flame with a flick of her hand. She took a big step back and yelled at Xie YunChuan, “If you have something, can you stop squeezing it out like toothpaste, little by little? I’m about to die, and if you don’t solve it, my abilities will be exhausted.”

Xie YunChuan, while throwing various skills at the zombies like they were free, took the time to answer, “That’s all I’ve got. If it doesn’t work, we can only die together.”

This zombie was too resistant to beatings. It received all kinds of skills, like punching cotton. Fireballs, ice spikes, vines – they couldn’t pierce it, couldn’t bind it, there was no way to deal with it.

The two were once again thrown back. Gu Tangxi approached Xie YunChuan and asked wearily, “What to do?” They were fighting to the point of exhaustion, but the zombie was still standing there steadily.

Xie YunChuan: “Haven’t you encountered this type of zombie before?”

Gu Tangxi threw a skill out, watching as the zombie crushed her little fireball, leaving only a wisp of smoke. She turned around and said angrily, “Nonsense, if I had, would I still be here?”

“Think of a way quickly, my abilities are really going to be exhausted.”

Xie YunChuan’s abilities were also about to be exhausted. Using three abilities at the same time consumed a lot of energy, but he couldn’t think of any other way for the time being, so he could only wear it down.

While they were fighting fiercely over there, Luo Shuyou was having a peaceful time playing here.

Gu Tangyue anxiously watched the battle in the cage. Every time the zombie brushed past Gu Tangxi, she clenched her fists, her heart hanging high, never letting it down. She was even more nervous than Gu Tangxi, who was in the middle of it.

Over here, Wu Yunbin and Zhou Zhongxiang, who had neither abilities to protect themselves nor vines to defend themselves, were still arguing. Wu Yunbin pointed shakily at Chen Jie, who was covered in blood on the ground, and asked, “What about him?”

“What can I do?” Zhou Zhongxiang was also scared and annoyed. He had no mood to care about Chen Jie, who had already passed out on the ground. Seeing that even the two ability users, Gu Tangxi and Xie YunChuan, couldn’t do anything to the zombie, they were probably all going to be stuck here today.

“Will he turn into a zombie and crawl up to bite us later?”

“Nonsense! Do you even need to ask? He’s not an ability user, he’ll definitely be infected and mutated!”

“Then… then you go kill him?”

“I’m not going, you go!”

Wu Yunbin shrank to the side, still feeling lingering fear. Chen Jie was lying next to him just now. When the zombie rushed in and grabbed him, he desperately grabbed Wu Yunbin’s hand, begging him to save him, but Wu Yunbin shook him off with all his strength.

He still trembled when he recalled Chen Jie’s resentful gaze.

Seeing that Xie YunChuan and Gu Tangxi were gradually falling behind, taking advantage of the fact that they were still entangled, Zhou Zhongxiang silently retreated, turned around, and wanted to run away. Wu Yunbin grabbed him. “Where are you going?”

“Fleeing for my life, what else? Staying here to wait for death?” Zhou Zhongxiang shook him off, left these words behind, and fled in a hurry, perhaps feeling a little guilty.

“This… this…!” Wu Yunbin looked at this and that, “Aiya!” Finally, with a flick of his hand, he ran out to chase Zhou Zhongxiang.

No one noticed these two deserters.

Seeing that they were about to be unable to hold on, Gu Tangyue took out a dark hand grenade and shouted from over there, “Sister! Sister! Use this, if you don’t use it now, you’ll die!”

Gu Tangxi flashed to her side, took it, and quickly left, so as not to attract the zombie to her.

Xie YunChuan pulled down the shelves with vines and pressed them firmly on the zombie, then wrapped several circles of arm-thick vines around it. Taking a breath, he saw Gu Tangxi coming over with the hand grenade, and he said coldly, “Why didn’t you take this out earlier? Did you have to wait until we were exhausted to use it?”

Gu Tangxi gave him a white eye: “You have the nerve to say that? Who was it who said before that he only had wood-type abilities? Then what are the ice blades you’re throwing out now? Can wood produce ice?”

It wasn’t that she didn’t want to take it out, there weren’t many to begin with. They had been using them all the way here, and this was the last one. He really didn’t want to use it unless it was absolutely necessary.

She handed the hand grenade to Xie YunChuan reluctantly and said, “Here, the last one. Be careful, if you don’t hit it with one blow, we’ll all be buried with it.”

Xie YunChuan held the hand grenade, but his expression didn’t relax, instead, he frowned even tighter. “How much energy do you have left?”

Judging from the damage they had done to the zombie after attacking it for so long, this hand grenade would have little effect unless it was thrown straight into its mouth and exploded.

“I can barely manage a final all-out blow!” If she hadn’t seen that they really couldn’t beat it, she wouldn’t have taken out this treasure that she had been hiding for so long. You know, they only applied for three hand grenades this time, and this was the last one. They still had the same distance to go back. Sigh!

Xie YunChuan quickly made a decision and said, “In a moment, I’ll grab its hand, and you aim and put the hand grenade in its mouth.”

“Hey…!” Before Gu Tangxi could say anything, the zombie broke free from its restraints and got up. Xie YunChuan conjured a large ice blade and slashed at it with all his strength. The zombie swayed, took a step back, and stood still.

Countless vines rose up and wrapped around its hands. Xie YunChuan ran directly behind it, hugged its hands, wrapped them around its neck, and leaned back. “Now!”

Gu Tangxi rushed forward, stuffed the hand grenade into its mouth, pulled the pin, picked up a board, and smashed it into the zombie’s mouth until she felt it couldn’t spit it out. Then she retreated and shouted, “Let go quickly, it’s going to explode!”

Xie YunChuan quickly let go, jumped to the side, and hid under the wooden board, covering his head.
