Her originally fair skin became wrinkled, her cheekbones protruding, and her cheeks sunken. Her pale blue eyes widened enormously upon seeing a living person, clearly having been starved for a long time.
Next, she stuck out a greenish tongue and licked the window intensely. Yellow saliva dripped from her mouth with a splattering sound.
Xu Qian frowned, feeling a bit disgusted.
She pulled on the car door, but it wouldn't open, likely because it was locked from the inside.
Suddenly, she thought of a question.
"System, can't put live beings in the space, right?"
"Ding, that's correct."
"Are zombies live beings?"
"Ding, zombies are considered live beings."
Her eyes brightened.
"Then what happens to zombies if they're put in the space?"
"Ding, they will die."
With a thought, Xu Qian retracted the red car into her space.
The car stopped in a corner. At first, the zombies inside struggled, but then they slowly collapsed inside the car, silent and still.
She had an idea: if there were too many zombies to handle in the future, could she first throw them into the space and then take them out to dig for crystal cores after they died?
"Ding, the space can only kill Level 1 zombies."
"..."
Fine, what a disappointment. She had thought it was some great treasure.
"Ding, after the system upgrades, it will be able to kill Level 2 zombies."
A spark of light flashed in Xu Qian's eyes. "When will it upgrade?"
"Ding, upon completion of Mission Objective 1, it will be able to upgrade."
"..."
Mei Yuebai's favorability was increasing too slowly. By the time the conquest was complete, who knew how long it would take.
"Ding, system reminder, the side mission deadline is tonight at 12 AM. Please collect quickly. If the mission fails, the system will impose a penalty."
Xu Qian froze. She had indeed forgotten about this side mission.
She needed to return to the base quickly to search. Otherwise, she didn't know what kind of punishment this garbage system would inflict.
Her movements became even more swift. She opened the trunk, and if there were any supplies, she first stored them in her space, then retracted the car into her space. Cars without supplies were directly retracted.
In the end, only Xu Qian was at the front collecting cars.
Everyone else lagged behind her, killing zombies.
Their zombie-killing speed couldn't match her collection speed.
After clearing nearly 2 kilometers, a beeping sound came.
Xu Qian looked up. It was a black jeep with its horn beeping, driving towards her at a not-so-fast speed.
The jeep stopped beside Xu Qian. The window of the driver's seat lowered, but not completely, revealing only a delicate, pretty face.
The woman looked surprised and said, "Xu Qian, what are you doing here?"
Xu Qian narrowed her eyes and thoroughly scanned the woman's face. Did she know this person?
Why did she have absolutely no impression?
Given Xu Qian's obvious unfamiliarity, the girl's eyes dimmed slightly. She reminded her, "I'm your junior high school classmate, Feng Zi."
Feng Zi recognized her immediately. She had been the school belle in junior high and was now so beautiful it was breathtaking.
A hint of jealousy flashed in her eyes. If only she could be that beautiful, then she wouldn't have to...
Xu Qian frowned. Who was Feng Zi?
Oh, it was her deskmate in the first year. They had been quite good friends back then.
This was the first time they had seen each other in eight years.
Xu Qian nodded at her and said, "Long time no see."
Seeing Xu Qian covered in blood and grime, Feng Zi guessed her life hadn't been easy.
A flicker of smugness crossed her eyes. She invited, "Xu Qian, come to our Feiteng Base. The benefits are great, and girls here rarely have to go out and kill zombies."
Girls at Feiteng Base didn't have to kill zombies?
