I transformed into a cute girl and lived a carefree life in the apocalypse.

After saying that, she transformed into a bolt of lightning and chased after the A-level predator.

As her small hand left that warm, soft palm, Xiaoqi suddenly felt a little scared. The corpses of the mutated species around her made her feel nauseous, and she wanted to leave this place as soon as possible.

But she still remembered Yan Ziming's instructions, and felt a little conflicted.

"Hmph, that rude girl, I'd better go back and leave her here waiting like an idiot."

"Sister Zimo is doing this for your own good. Don't let her down!"

In Xiaoqi's mind, a little devil and a little angel appeared arguing with each other, one arguing about keeping their promise and the other insisting that she go back alone.

"Hmph! It's not that I'm worried she'll be anxious because she can't find me, I just don't want to give her a chance to mock me!"

After careful consideration, Xiaoqi decided to stay put and wait for Yan Ziming to return.

The proud Xiao Qi didn't realize that she had actually started to consider Yan Ziming's feelings.

After waiting for about half an hour, Xiaoqi still hadn't seen Yan Ziming, and she started to panic.

"This jerk wouldn't have just abandoned me here because of my bad attitude, would she? No, she shouldn't be that kind of person... This jerk! Why isn't she back yet?"

Xiaoqi considered all sorts of possibilities, but rejected them all, and for a moment she stomped her feet in anger.

呲溜

The sound of licking one's tongue.

Xiao Qi suddenly turned around and found a predator squatting on the wall above its head. Its tongue, more than two meters long, was moving in and out of its mouth, and drops of saliva were dripping onto the ground.

"Eek—" Little Seven was startled by the sudden appearance of the predator and fell to the ground, letting out a helpless cry.

The predator saw that the little human girl in front of it was different from the powerful, monstrous human it had just encountered; instead, she was pitifully weak.

It raised its sharp teeth and claws, intending to tear the human in front of it to pieces.

Xiaoqi closed her eyes in despair. She saw the predator raise its claws at her. She felt as if all the strings in her head had snapped. Everything went black before her eyes, and in the darkness, a strong figure appeared.

The silhouette of a giant ape.

------Dividing line------

Yan Ziming continued to sweep across the surrounding streets, his gaze fixed on the predators that were constantly using the houses to escape, and he frowned.

This beast seems to be intentionally or unintentionally leading me somewhere!

"How cunning..." Yan Ziming sneered disdainfully.

She's not going to play cat and mouse anymore; she's going to take swift and decisive action to kill it!

Just as she was about to unleash her full power, the predator, which had been fleeing, suddenly stopped and crouched in an open space surrounded by three huge unfinished buildings, waiting for Yan Ziming to step into the area.

Yan Ziming didn't care whether it was a trap or not. Her absolute strength made her fearless of the predator in front of her. She just wanted to kill it quickly and return to Xiao Qi's side.

She wasn't worried about Xiao Qi's safety because when she chased after her, she set up an electromagnetic field within a hundred meters of Xiao Qi. This was an extension of her lightning ability, allowing her to sense whether there were any enemies around.

As soon as an enemy gets within 100 meters of Xiaoqi, she can sense it and will rush back as fast as she can. The enemy is 100 meters away from Xiaoqi, which is enough time for her to get back and rescue them.

As Yan Ziming walked into the area surrounded by unfinished buildings, the predator's gaze turned cold.

Yan Ziming also coldly observed the predator in front of him, feeling somewhat wary.

This beast seems a little too clever; its cunning is no less than that of a human.

If we continue to keep it around, it might become like a venomous snake, waiting for an opportunity to strike. We cannot remain vigilant forever, and it will inevitably lead to casualties, which is unacceptable to Yan Ziming.

"So, please go die."

Yan Ziming assumed a thrusting stance, preparing to deliver a fatal blow to this beast.

Suddenly she heard a lot of strange noises coming from the three unfinished buildings around her.

Yan Ziming looked up and saw that the previously empty, unfinished building was now swarming with predators. A rough count revealed that there were at least several hundred, and the number was still increasing!

She had clearly stepped into the predators' lair!

Chapter Sixty-Four: Shining Brightly in the Mortal World

As the dense swarms of predators around him climbed down the stairs one after another, Yan Ziming's gaze toward the predator in the center became somewhat solemn.

I suspect that all the predators from the north, no, half the city, have gathered here.

After a quick glance, Yan Ziming determined that there were no S-rank beings among them. Upon learning this, Yan Ziming felt reassured. As long as there were no S-rank beings, even if he couldn't defeat them, he could still escape unscathed.

Yan Ziming turned his attention back to the predator that had lured him there, and a murderous glint appeared in his eyes.

This guy has to die! He's too cunning. He first feigned weakness to lure me into their lair, and then revealed his sharp fangs, intending to deliver a fatal blow. In terms of threat level, he's almost on par with an S-class mutated species, and even some S-class species aren't as smart as him.

Keeping this beast around will definitely cause endless trouble!

With a "whoosh," Yan Ziming, not intending to give it a chance to blend into the army of predators, directly used lightning-fast methods to rush towards it.

The predator, still gloating over luring Yan Ziming into its trap, saw Yan Ziming's figure suddenly disappear. The threat of death made its limbs twitch unnaturally, and it quickly twisted itself 270 degrees to avoid Yan Ziming's attack.

However, it was still grazed by the lightning, leaving a five-centimeter-deep, one-meter-long wound on its back, with faint lightning surging within, damaging its body structure.

With a painful roar, it made a startling move, decisively scraping off a chunk of its own flesh with its sharp claws!

The scraped-off chunks of flesh still retained some nerve endings, wriggling on the ground, which was quite disgusting.

"cut."

Seeing that his sure-kill attack had missed, Yan Ziming clicked his tongue. At this moment, the 'Predator' was already surrounded by the army of prey, making it much more difficult for him to kill it with one blow.

"Predator" was the code name Yan Ziming temporarily gave to the predator. She decided that if she couldn't kill it on this mission, she would report the target to the command and propose to focus on killing it!

Three more figures appeared beside the 'Predator'. They were smaller than the 'Predator', but without a doubt, they were all A-level beings. However, they surrounded the 'Predator' like servants.

Does this beast even have multiple wives and concubines? Has the intelligence of the "predator" reached such a level?

This further strengthened Yan Zimo's resolve to kill it.

At this moment, the "Predator" flicked its thumb and pointed at Yan Ziming, who was also surrounded. In an instant, all the predators swarmed towards her.

Yan Ziming can no longer rely solely on hand-to-hand combat; azure lightning surged from behind her, forming a lightning barrier.

It is her lightning domain.

All the predators that entered the boundary were immediately struck by the lightning that filled the area. Those with lower strength were instantly turned into charred remains, while the stronger ones, those at or above the B-level, were also electrocuted, their skin torn open and covered in blood.

Wielding the Thunder Cutter, he swept it across the area where the predators were most concentrated, unleashing a burst of azure lightning that reduced the predators in that region to ashes.

Undeterred, Yan Ziming pointed towards the "Predator," and a dark red lightning bolt, as thick as an arm, shot towards it. The ground where the lightning passed became crystalline, as if it had been scorched by the high temperature and become vitrified!

The crimson lightning, carrying temperatures of tens of thousands of degrees, pierced through the predators and abandoned cars along the way, also killing an A-level predator, and headed straight for the 'Predator' who was recuperating in the center of the predator army.

The 'Predator', which was watching the battle, saw Yan Ziming point in its direction and unleash a dark red lightning bolt. It once again felt the threat of death and immediately jumped into the air to avoid the attack.

Once again, this human had nearly gotten himself killed here. The predator's gaze was cold and menacing. It was determined to tear this human apart, crush her body, and drink her blood to vent its anger.

It glanced discreetly toward an unfinished building, as if directing something.

Yan Ziming was somewhat annoyed to see his sure-kill attack miss again.

That attack she just used was her trump card, her strongest single-target attack skill, called Radiant Red Dust.

This move is truly powerful and unparalleled. Yan Ziming once used this move to kill seven A-level mutated species in one strike. That was a feat she accomplished on the battlefield of the Jiangning Military Administrative Region. She earned her formidable reputation with this move.

She should have attacked when it wasn't paying attention! She had already missed three opportunities, and even Yan Ziming herself didn't know if she would have another chance.

Chapter Sixty-Five Crisis

Yan Ziming felt a stagnation in the energy within his body, and the energy supply couldn't keep up.

The Radiant Red Dust attack had just depleted 20% of her energy reserves, causing a brief interruption in her energy supply. At this moment, she was already somewhat exhausted, and the power of the Thunder Domain had also weakened.

Taking advantage of this opening, four predators with strength reaching level B rushed in front of Yan Ziming, raising their sharp claws to tear her apart.

Seeing this, Yan Ziming quickly dodged. Although her superpower was very strong, she could block most attacks with the shield formed by the electromagnetic barrier.

However, her energy supply is currently insufficient, so the electromagnetic barrier is naturally ineffective. Moreover, her physical defense is also quite average; it's just that as a superhuman, her physical abilities are much better than ordinary people. Being hit by a bullet would still result in a fatal injury, not to mention that the claws in front of her possess power comparable to firearms.

He barely dodged two of the attacks. One was a direct slash with the Lightning Blade, but the other grazed Yan Zimo's waist and abdomen, leaving a trail of blood.

Feeling pain in her lower back and abdomen, Yan Ziming looked down to check her injuries. She saw that her white pajamas had been torn to shreds, revealing a large area of ​​her snow-white skin, along with three scratches from which bright red blood seeped.

"Damn it..." Yan Ziming knew he couldn't stay any longer; if he stayed any longer, he might lose his life.

It seems the only option is to report the existence of the "Predator" to command.

Thinking that he couldn't even take down a few A-level predators, Yan Ziming couldn't help but feel a little resentful. He resented that he wasn't strong enough. Otherwise, no matter what tricks or schemes you had, they would all be crushed in the face of absolute power!

It's not that Yan Ziming isn't strong enough, but rather that his enemies are too cunning and cautious, dodging his fatal blows time and time again, which has led to Yan Ziming's current predicament.

Having considered retreating, Yan Ziming forcibly unleashed the remaining energy within his body, raising the power of the Thunder Domain once again, even a level higher than before, turning the few B-level predators that had just broken in into charred remains.

Yan Ziming unleashed another bolt of lightning with his Raikiri, sending up a shower of blood. He then decided to retreat.

Just as she turned around to leave, a gust of wind came from behind and above. Yan Ziming felt a chill run down her spine in an instant; it was the threat of death!

There was no time to evade, so Yan Ziming had no choice but to turn around and use the Thunder Cutter to block the attack.

With a "clang," a tremendous force forced Yan Ziming to kneel on one knee, accompanied by the sound of claws snapping back. However, the predator's weapons were not limited to claws; it also possessed a tongue that could extend!

The predator behind him opened its mouth and extended its long tongue, which pierced through a layer of electromagnetic current with a speed no less than that of a bullet leaving the barrel, making a "plop" sound. It also pierced through Yan Ziming's right leg, bringing with it a series of blood droplets.
