TSIAGBICATMWI Chapter 51
by VolareChapter 51 Entering the City
Three days later, they didn’t reach the so-called Half-Moon City, but fortunately, they saw a wide road. Judging by the number of damaged vehicles on the road, it was estimated that a city area wasn’t far away.
“Should we enter the city?” Gu Tangxi asked Xie YunChuan.
Xie YunChuan said, “Let’s go in and see if we can find a car to use.” He also wanted to test his upgraded ability.
He could feel the huge gap between each level-up, but he didn’t know how it would work in actual combat. Instead of fantasizing, it was better to put it into practice and get more Jīngpò.
Gu Tangyue raised both hands and feet in agreement to finding a car to travel in. She now had the ridiculous feeling that she would rather be bitten to death by a zombie than walk anymore.
Really, it was too terrifying. For more than ten days, they were either rushing on the road or setting up tents, only getting six or seven hours of sleep each night, unable to eliminate the fatigue from the previous day’s journey.
Alas! Why couldn’t her space be bigger, so she could directly put the set-up tent inside, instead of having to painstakingly disassemble it in the morning and set it up again at night?
She could also directly collect good cars when she saw them, and take them out when needed.
The ideal was beautiful, but reality was harsh. Her tiny space couldn’t allow for such wanton squandering.
After continuing for a few kilometers, tall and short buildings came into view, with various architectural styles scattered in an orderly manner, but the once neon-lit streets had now become lonely and desolate.
It seemed that this used to be a prosperous small city with good development.
Xie YunChuan walked in carelessly, leaving Gu Tangxi and Gu Tangyue behind, dumbfounded. “He just went in so heroically?” Gu Tangxi asked Gu Tangyue, doubting her life.
Gu Tangyue: “I don’t know, maybe the way we opened it was wrong.” She closed her eyes, and when she opened them again, Xie YunChuan was still walking forward so blatantly.
That’s not right, shouldn’t the correct posture be to hunch over, hide left and right, and sneak into the city?
Xie YunChuan noticed that they hadn’t followed and stopped, turning back to see them standing there not moving. He asked, “Let’s go! What are you doing?”
Gu Tangxi and Gu Tangyue hurried to catch up. Gu Tangyue leaned close to him and said reservedly, “Um… Big Brother! Shouldn’t we be a little more low-key?” Actually, she meant to be cautious.
Xie YunChuan pointed to a commercial building in front of them for Gu Tangxi and Gu Tangyue to see, “Do you see that building?”
Gu Tangyue and Gu Tangxi nodded, “We see it, so what?”
“Are there a lot of supplies inside? Then let’s quickly sneak over there.” Gu Tangxi’s eyes sparkled, eager to replenish their small warehouse, which had been depleted in recent days.
Xie YunChuan: “…! No, there are twenty-odd low-level zombies inside.”
“What the hell!!” Gu Tangxi expressed shock and disbelief.
“What?” Gu Tangyue looked back at the way they came, considering the possibility of turning back at this time.
Xie YunChuan discovered that after his ability was upgraded, he could clearly feel the energy fluctuations on those low-level zombies when he approached them again. Just like his previous guess, the current low-level zombies were ubiquitous, as for the higher levels, he couldn’t figure them out for the time being.
“Let’s go in and solve these few first.”
“Huh?” Gu Tangxi felt like she had a bone stuck in her throat, “Big Brother! Boss~! Can you not say it so lightly? If you hadn’t said earlier that there were twenty-odd, I would have thought the few you were talking about were two or three!”
“Otherwise? Your ability needs to be improved.” Xie YunChuan planned to give Gu Tangxi a few more Jīngpò this time. As a team member, her being too weak wasn’t good for him.
Gu Tangyue retreated silently, “I won’t participate, anyway, I can’t help much if I go, instead, I’ll be a burden. How about I take Luo Shuyou and wait for you outside?”
Xie YunChuan thought about it, “Alright, wait for us to clean up inside and then come pick you up. Take good care of Luo Shuyou, don’t let him run around.”
Gu Tangxi: “Can anyone listen to my opinion?”
Gu Tangyue smiled and patted her on the shoulder, “Your opinion is not important. Follow Brother Chuan to pick up equipment and level up.”
“Okay!” Gu Tangxi thought, that’s the logic, it’s good to enjoy the shade under a big tree. Since Xie YunChuan could say it so casually, he must be confident, so following him was the right thing to do.
“But will you be in danger if you stay here?”
Gu Tangyue waved her hand, “It’s okay, I’ll take Luo Shuyou to find a corner to hide and wait for you.” Could it be more dangerous than you guys being inside with zombies everywhere?
“If you really encounter any danger, let the White Tiger Cub hold on, you two run, run back the way you came, we’ll come and find you then.” Xie YunChuan knew that the White Tiger Cub could block the attack of a level 1 zombie before, it should have improved now, he was still relieved with it by their side.
There were many low-level zombies in the city, and he didn’t know if there were any higher-level ones hidden in the dark, bringing them in was even more unsafe.
Entrusted with an important task, White Tiger Cub proudly raised its head. Not bad, finally realizing the awesomeness of this tiger, not to mention low-level zombies, even level 1 zombies could be turned into scum in seconds!
Cough cough, the last sentence was a bit of an exaggeration, in short, it was very powerful.
Gu Tangyue looked at White Tiger Cub’s round, short body in confusion, “Let it hold on…?” How to hold on, it couldn’t even touch the zombie’s knees, if it were a majestic adult tiger, this sentence would sound a little credible, now?
Hearing this, White Tiger Cub angrily bared its teeth and bumped into Gu Tangyue’s calf, Gu Tangyue easily dodged it with a lift of her foot.
Well, it was even less convincing now.
“No need to doubt, anyway, it will hold on when the time comes.” Xie YunChuan finished speaking and looked at the White Tiger, “Right? White Tiger Cub!”
White Tiger Cub happily wagged its tail, turned around, and nodded.
Luo Shuyou didn’t realize what they were discussing, and was playing on the side, sometimes poking Xie YunChuan’s hand, sometimes pulling the leaves by the roadside, until Xie YunChuan peeled him away and said to him, “Luo Shuyou, be good and follow Sister Xiaoyue, okay? Brother will be back soon, and I’ll bring you something delicious then.”
Gu Tangyue was secretly pleased listening on the side, Sister Xiaoyue, haha, she was now an authorized sister.
Something delicious? Luo Shuyou, who didn’t care about anything else, only heard these three words echoing in his ears, happily picked up Xie YunChuan’s hand to sniff, didn’t find any blood, and then tiptoed to lick his lips, but still nothing.
He had tried all the methods to suck blood, but there was nothing. His eyes dimmed, and he angrily shook off Xie YunChuan and turned his back, bad guy, deceiving Luo Shuyou, I’m ignoring you.
Seeing this, Xie YunChuan didn’t coax him like he usually did, but quickly left with Gu Tangxi to enter the city.
Luo Shuyou waited for a long time but didn’t see his ChuanChuan come to hug him. When he turned his head, there was no trace of Xie YunChuan. This was the first time Xie YunChuan had left his sight and he couldn’t find him.
“Chuan… Chuan…!”
He called out several times but still no one paid attention to him. As far as he could see, there was no sign of Xie YunChuan anywhere, the more he looked, the more aggrieved he became.
After a long period of brewing, he burst into tears, the little guy crying with tears all over his face, helplessly picking up the only familiar small ball to seek comfort.
The ball seriously used its small furry paws to wipe away his tears, carefully retracting its claws to avoid scratching its little master, and used its furry head to nudge Luo Shuyou’s chin, gently rubbing back and forth.
Gu Tangyue was so frightened that she didn’t know what to do, “Luo Shuyou, don’t cry, he doesn’t not want you, he’ll be back in a while.”
Luo Shuyou ignored her and continued to cry, sobbing.
“Then… how about you bite me?” She stretched out her arm and held it there for a long time, but Luo Shuyou was indifferent.
“Oh, I forgot, you’re picky now, you only drink Xie YunChuan’s blood.” She silently put down her sleeves, thinking about this she was puzzled, it’s not a blood transfusion, why be picky about blood types?… She couldn’t understand what was so good about that Xie YunChuan.
