Chapter 113
So, if the world were still the one where grievances and injustices could be voiced, Xu Rubing’s experiences, once made public, would definitely garner a lot of sympathy and support.
Even after she’s become what she is now, people would say she was forced into it. Just a kind, ordinary person being pushed to the brink, then launching a counterattack, turning to the dark side for revenge.
What’s her fault? The fault lies with the world she’s in and the majority of people around her.
But for Xu Rubing herself, the so-called right and wrong had long lost their meaning. And she often regretted not discarding her normal values sooner and taking revenge on those beasts.
Come to think of it, her worthless life was never valued by those people. What did life even amount to? If she had died while being bullied and exploited by those people, what meaning would dreams or the future have?
So, she had made up her mind the moment she was thrown into the zombie horde. Even if she died, she wouldn’t let go of those who started it all and those who stood by and watched. They all deserved to die! Dying ten thousand times wouldn’t be enough! Since she miraculously survived, it must be heaven’s will for those people to die.
Faced with Xu Rubing’s questioning, Zhao Qi and Zhao Lin’s silence was the most irrefutable answer. Even if they had any excuses, Xu Rubing wouldn’t waver from her original thoughts in the slightest—after all, having died once, she was completely different from the previous, tolerant version of herself.
“No words? Heh, then let you taste what it’s like to be an ant!” Xu Rubing’s expression was solemn, not even a hint of a smile at the corner of her mouth as she sneered. Her eyes narrowed, and she exuded a dangerous aura. As she finished speaking, she released her finger, and an arrow shot down towards the two below like lightning.
Zhao Qi certainly knew Xu Rubing’s level. Seeing the arrow heading straight for his sister, Zhao Lin, Zhao Qi had almost no time to think. He could only rely on his speed, which was faster than average, and the advantage of not being far from Zhao Lin, to instinctively take a step forward and block the arrow between Zhao Lin and the arrow.
“Pfft!” The arrowhead easily pierced through Zhao Qi’s right back. The sharp triangular area slid along the edge of the bone, and the arrow’s tail flicked slightly, piercing into the flesh of Zhao Qi’s back where there was no bone protection. After the arrow’s forward momentum was slightly stalled, the entire arrow still broke through Zhao Qi’s internal organs and flesh and blood with overwhelming force, protruding from his chest. The arrowhead at the point of exit brought out a cluster of blood, which happened to splatter on the face of Zhao Lin, who was already stunned in front of him.
“…” Zhao Lin’s face first turned pale, then she fixed her incredulous gaze on Zhao Qi’s injured chest. When a teardrop from her left eye fell unexpectedly, she trembled her lips and reached out her trembling fingers to touch in front of her, at a loss. Her breathing seemed to have stopped temporarily, and she only cared about looking at the place where the fatal arrow had pierced through with tears in her eyes, but for a moment, her heart seemed to freeze, and she couldn’t speak.
At this time, Zhao Qi, whose internal organs were damaged, clearly wanted to act cool and comfort the frightened Zhao Lin, but as he opened his mouth, he only felt a sweetness in his throat, and a mouthful of blood uncontrollably gushed out of his mouth. In the next second, his body could no longer support itself, and he fell directly towards Zhao Lin in front of him.
“…Brother!!” Zhao Lin, who instinctively hugged Zhao Qi, wanted to support his body, but was directly knelt on the ground by Zhao Qi’s full weight. Zhao Qi also slid directly into her arms. Finally recovering her breath, Zhao Lin then turned all her grief and despair into a heartbreaking cry.
“…Cough…Ugh, don’t, don’t cry…” Zhao Qi spat out another mouthful of blood, forced the following blood down, and then took a breath and said to Zhao Lin, who was already sobbing. However, the burning pain in his chest and the consciousness that was gradually leaving his body made his voice sound weak.
“…Brother, brother…I’ll be obedient, I won’t cry, please don’t die, okay? Wuwu…Brother, I know you’re the best, you won’t leave Lin’er and leave alone, right? Brother, brother, don’t close your eyes! Look at me! Look at Lin’er…Brother–!!” Zhao Lin held Zhao Qi’s head in her arms, and watched as Zhao Qi, after comforting her, could no longer suppress the blood surging up from his broken internal organs. After spitting out two big mouthfuls of blood, his eyes slowly closed. She could no longer suppress her grief, crying and shaking Zhao Qi, her whole person was obviously in a state of madness and confusion.
“…”. Lu Ziming, who had already collapsed against the wall due to injury and exhaustion, had roughly understood the situation after listening to their conversation.
In short, this couple who wanted to kill her was actually a pair of siblings, and also Xu Rubing’s former teammates. The reason why she was alone when she and Yao Jinglin and others met Xu Rubing was because she was forced out by those people in the shooting team to feed the zombies.
