My Girlfriend is a Zombie

Chapter 844: Xiao Bai in the Grass



At the edge of the wilderness, a dozen people stood quietly behind a man and a woman. One person lay on the ground listening for a while, then suddenly got up, looking uncertain as he said, “It seems they’re inside, but it’s too far for me to be sure…”

“No, they definitely went inside,” the Youth said with certainty.

His gaze was dark as he looked into the wilderness, and he murmured, “We’ve wasted so much time, and haven’t found any trace of them, not even a corpse. As for them… they stalled for time to escape here, didn’t they? Otherwise, running along the main road wouldn’t leave them any chance of success, and they might even encounter a new Support Team… Now they’ve successfully delayed us, so they’re certainly inside.”n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

The reasoning was frustrating, and as the Youth analyzed, he couldn’t help but get angry. He clenched his fist, producing a “click” that everyone around could hear clearly.

At this moment, the only person daring to speak was Kaili. The woman let out a light laugh and said with interest, “We’ve seen plenty of corpses, but they’re all long-dead skeletons… The thought that he could still be alive, even in such a condition, makes me…” She licked her lips and lowered her voice, “It makes me a little excited…”

She raised her hand and slowly ran it down from her chin, her fingertips lightly touching her neck, before stopping at her chest. Judging by her heaving chest, even her breathing seemed a bit labored, and along with her half-closed eyes, her whole demeanor was somewhat unsettling.

Several people in the crowd averted their gaze, and those closest to her even took a few steps back.

“I’ll keep a close eye on him…” Kaili said, looking excited.

The Youth didn’t look at her and instead turned his head to say, “Groups of three, the whole Squad will search forward in a fan shape. They’re carrying burdens, so they can’t match us in stamina. However, even if you discover them, do not act rashly! Immediately send a signal! In addition, all Teams must maintain a distance where they can support each other, understood?”

“Understood!” everyone responded in unison. Even without the Youth’s reminder, these people wouldn’t act recklessly.

To the Youth, the focus tonight was on being delayed, but for these regular Team Members, the most shocking thing was the death of two comrades. And this had been done right under the Youth’s nose…

“Move out!” With a wave of the Youth’s arm, the Destruction Team shot forward, quickly disappearing into the wilderness under the cover of night…

“They’re coming…” A voice suddenly emerged from the shadows, belonging to Xia Na.

“Yeah, from this distance, let’s let them make contact first. As long as we find an opportunity…” Ling Mo crouched behind the grass, speaking in a low voice. But if you listened carefully, you’d notice a subtle similarity between his tone and that of the woman named Kaili…

One was eagerly anticipating the thrill of the hunt, the other quietly waiting for the moment to strike back…

“Them? Oh… I get it,” Li Yalin interjected with a smile.

Ye Lian was nowhere to be seen, and several others, including Old Zheng, had also vanished.

“At times like this, patience is key… but with obstructed vision and a vast area, no matter how cautious or patient you are, these objective factors can lead to numerous flaws,” Ling Mo mused. “Let’s show them who the real hunting experts are…”

He had barely let out a cold chuckle when Xia Na’s voice came from behind him: “Experts, that’s us, taking advantage of the terrain… dealing with mere humans is such a hassle…”

“They have weapons…” Ling Mo replied with a pained expression.

“Hmph…”

“Be careful…”

“Got it.” Xia Na, holding her Scythe, darted forward, quickly disappearing nearby.

In the wilderness, the distance between the two sides was rapidly closing…

A three-person Squad was a very reasonable arrangement. It allowed them to observe their surroundings while enhancing each other’s defensive capability, significantly boosting their combat strength. Even in this setting, the Team Members of the Destruction could maintain basic composure.

They believed that even if Ling Mo and his group launched a sneak attack, this formation would allow them to withdraw safely.

But this balance was disrupted with the appearance of a white shadow.

The shadow appeared suddenly, and its positioning was very strategic.

It avoided the Youth, who was in the center, and bypassed Kaili, who was at the front. It emerged just when everyone’s gaze was directed away from their rear…

“MeGu!”

With a peculiar roar, the massive white shadow suddenly leapt from the grass and fiercely plunged down from mid-air.

The three Team Members, though vigilant of their surroundings, hadn’t expected the attack to come from above, much less anticipated an attack of this nature.

“There’s a monster jumping out from the grass!”

In the rush, the three could only scatter to avoid it.

However, the capabilities of these three were indeed commendable. Even under such circumstances, they managed to jump out of the white shadow’s range.

“That was close…”

One of them was just beginning to feel relieved when his pupils suddenly contracted, and he couldn’t help but shout, “Damn!”

The white shadow, still in mid-air, mysteriously expanded in size!

The two Team Members who had been retreating and preparing to counterattack instantly miscalculated, getting swatted aside by a “smack” from its claws.

The other had already flipped backwards, only to have the creature’s hind legs kick out like lightning, “thud” against the gun he had hastily raised.

As a result, he was sent flying the furthest, crashing into the grass over ten meters away.

It wasn’t until then that the three managed to let out their screams, one after the other.

Another Squad nearby immediately raised their guns, quickly advancing towards them.

Ratatatat!

As the gunfire rang out, the white shadow had already shrunk back, leaping into the grass and vanishing.

“What the hell was that thing just now!”

A Team Member struggled to get up, his clothes torn to shreds, revealing the bulletproof vest underneath. An unusual flush of blood appeared on his face, and his body swayed involuntarily.

Another flexed all his muscles until he stood up, gradually returning to his normal physique.

“Was that a mutation beast? But it didn’t attack Ling Mo and the others in front; instead, it deliberately targeted us…” A Team Member had just said this when his expression changed suddenly. “Where’s Billy?”

“I think I saw him get knocked away…”

The five of them immediately rushed forward to where Billy had fallen, only to find a long drag mark…

The trail of blood extending away made all five of them gulp simultaneously, seeing a trace of fear in each other’s eyes.

“Billy’s enhancement ability significantly boosts his defensive power, making it hard for anyone to break through. Even encountering Advanced Zombies, he can hold his ground, and he has some self-defense capabilities against mutation beasts… but…” One of them said grimly.

Another continued, “From the moment he landed, it seemed like we didn’t hear any sound from him…”

Facing the vast wilderness, the five hesitated for a moment and ultimately retreated…

“Tsk… I thought at least one or two of them would risk their lives to search the area…”

As they regrouped and withdrew, a petite figure was coldly watching them from within the grass, less than ten meters away.

At her feet, the man named Billy struggled desperately. But his face was pinned down, and his entire body was tightly bound by peculiar silver threads. The more he thrashed, the deeper they cut, while the blood flowing from his body was continuously absorbed by these silver threads…

“Black Silk, drain him dry. We need to deliver this team’s positional map to the Sausage Humans within three minutes…” Yu Shiran stomped down hard again, a muffled “crack” followed by a sly smile spreading across her delicate face. “Able to handle Advanced Zombies and ordinary mutation beasts? What a pity, here you face a Leader-Level Zombie and a mutation creature beyond that level… Earlier, we couldn’t hold you off, but out here in the wild, you’re nothing more than weak prey…”
