This time I chose Paladin.

Chapter 15 Wild Life

Aaron turned the fishing net over and used the net bag to scoop the slender girl into it.

He glanced at the short-range fixed-point teleportation skill 'Hunting' which was on cooldown and smiled with satisfaction.

"That's really convenient..." he said, "I'll go back and kill a couple of zombies and see how the experience I gain from killing people compares to that."

Yunni's eyes were empty. The huge changes and severe pain made her lose the ability to think. This college student who had not yet graduated curled up in the net bag, calling for her mother softly, one by one, as if she was not born from her mother's arms.

Aaron listened impatiently, spewing obscenities that were unbearable to the ear. He wanted to kick her, ideally knocking out a few teeth, but he couldn't bear to leave her pretty face. Finally, he snorted, dragging the bloody axe and the net bag with him as he walked back, leaving a long trail of blood on the ground. Under normal circumstances, it might take several days before the people in the nearby county would have the energy to visit the surrounding villages and towns. By then, it would be too late, and that would suit him perfectly...

But he didn't expect that after just taking two steps, there was a roar from behind that quickly came closer and closer. Before Aaron turned around, a meteor-like light passed by him. He suddenly felt half of his body lighten, as if the net bag was gone. He grabbed his hands anxiously, wanting to pour the person in the net out and prepare for a fight, only to realize that the net bag was indeed gone.

The arm is gone too.

Aaron looked over blankly.

He saw the gushing blood. The force of the arterial blood pumping out was greater than that of a fountain. The blood spurted three to five meters away, and the sticky scarlet blood took away the temperature.

He was stunned for two seconds before realizing that the arm holding the net bag was broken!
Someone... no, something chopped his arm off at the root!

These poachers seemed fearless of pain and death, and Aaron had only grumbled in pain. But then a faint white light clung to the severed end of his arm, piercing and burning like white phosphorus, burning through his flesh and bones like a thorn in his flesh, quickly singeing half his upper body. Aaron's heartbreaking screams echoed through the night. His head swam, and he clutched his axe, staring at the nearby area. There...

A person?

A...biker?

Aaron saw a young man sitting astride a motorcycle, holding the unconscious Yunni with one hand and untying the fishing net from her.

Where did this young man come from!

Aaron didn't waste any time. He dodged and landed next to Yunni, then raised his hand and swung an axe!
The axe was struck with great force and weight, and was obviously destined to succeed, but unexpectedly it missed.

The young man simply turned slightly to avoid the axe's sharp blade. He raised his eyes and saw a cold light flash from the other side of the motorcycle!
"Crack!"

A flash of silver light appeared, and Aaron froze in his tracks. A series of prompts such as "suffering from a weak point attack" and "suffering from a fatal weakness attack" flashed on the side of his vision.

After a moment, his vision drooped and fell, and he saw his chest, abdomen, thighs, and then the earth and the sky...

Nie Weiyang silently put up his shield and moved his motorcycle to the side, ensuring that both he and the motorcycle remained relatively clean.

He glanced at the girl in his arms.

Yunni...

In his previous life, he first met this person half a month later.

At that time, her legs were cut off, and there was almost no treatment in the early days of the apocalypse, so she just stayed in Lang City and did a job registering survivors and writing letters for the elderly.

No one knows what she's been through. The authorities have kept her information very secret. She always has a bright and sunny smile and never mentions the sad things...

Thinking back now, if he hadn't heard the voice today, she probably would have been captured by this 'thief hunter' who was chasing her and subjected to inhuman torture. "..." Nie Weiyang closed his eyes.

Now is not the time to rest...

The world is undergoing a sudden upheaval, and many people are eager to seize the opportunity to do something "big." However, the vast majority of people in this world are in the middle, neither truly good nor truly bad. They do good things when they're led by good people, but often, when they're led by bad people, they don't accomplish anything truly remarkable.

The new world replicates the time and space transfer of Earth players almost one-to-one. Those under the sea are moved to islands or ships, those underground are moved to the surface or underground caves, those in the crater are placed under the volcano, and those in outer space... Nie Weiyang has never paid attention to it, and he doesn't know.

The problem now is that there are probably still many people who need help just near Langcheng!
Nie Weiyang frowned slightly. He shook off the ash from his sword and touched Yunni with the light from the sword. Then he took out a medical kit from his backpack and expertly performed emergency bone reset and fracture fixation on her.

The thief catcher's power wasn't of the dark type, but he was a dark creature himself, so Nie Weiyang tried the effects of the Spirit of Purification. Dark creatures made up half of the world, and while their main distribution wasn't in China, there were quite a few in China as well. The criteria for judging someone was confusing, almost random, but some people's profiles had included things like "I became a vampire because I liked staying up late"...

The Purifying Spirit didn't purify anything, but the light was too dazzling when viewed up close. Yun Ni subconsciously turned her head and buried it in Nie Weiyang's chest: "Don't... don't shine..."

She gradually woke up dazed and dreamily looked up at Nie Weiyang. Her vision was blurry, and she couldn't see his face clearly. She could only see a pair of straight and gentle eyes. The irises of his eyes were a charming scarlet, and the golden light deep in the pupils added a strange gentleness to them.

Yun Ni felt like she was dreaming. She looked at Nie Weiyang's face for a while, then lowered her head to look at Nie Weiyang's chest, then raised her head again and murmured, "Heaven..."

"..."

Nie Weiyang was silent for a moment, then silently pulled her out of his arms by the scruff of her neck and raised the glowing sword again. The Whisper now looked like a light bulb, and he himself didn't want to look directly at it.

"Ahhh, don't take pictures, I'm a vampire college student. I will melt if I'm exposed to strong light, ahhh..." Yunni screamed and shook her head frantically: "Brother! Brother! I'm awake, brother! If you have any questions, please use voice to inquire!"

"Where are you from? Tell me the exact location. Also, are there any people there who are attacking humans?" Nie Weiyang asked calmly.

Yun Ni's confused mind froze. She finally regained consciousness. Ignoring her newly splinted calf, she endured the excruciating pain and sat up with difficulty. Without a word, she pointed in the direction to Nie Weiyang: "There! Daliushuang! In the cellar of Yard 28, in the center of the village! It's there!"

The intelligence that was thrown into oblivion after the college entrance examination has returned with dignity!
"There are elderly people, a lot of them! And young girls too!" Yunni shouted, as if she had gathered all her strength. Her voice was strong and powerful: "Save them, please!"

"Okay." Nie Weiyang said.

At this moment, the wilds were not extremely dangerous. He placed Yunni in a secluded place and asked knowingly, "Can you hide well?"

"Yes! I'm a messenger. My initial skills are traveling, positioning, and hiding!" Yun Ni answered loudly, her eyes wide open, staring straight at Nie Weiyang: "When are you going...?"

There were so many enemies in Daliu Village, and they might be Aaron's former accomplices hiding nearby. No matter how anxious she was, she didn't want to urge this strange benefactor to fall into the trap of so many desperate criminals.

"Now." Nie Weiyang said.

He said nothing more, simply turning the car around and twisting the handlebars. The roar rose again under the night sky. The wheels began to glow and spin again, kicking up dust and mud.

Yunni was stunned for two seconds before she remembered she didn't know his name. She struggled to her feet and wanted to shout, but was afraid of attracting the zombies. The knight draped in light was gone in an instant, vanishing into the darkness.

She glanced at Aaron's body not far away, and realized that he seemed to have been killed by two blows without any ability to fight back, one of which was probably to save her.

The girl's dirty face twisted twice and she couldn't help shedding tears. Although she still couldn't laugh, her mood finally calmed down.
