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

Yan Ziming saw another red marker on the map, which was the only one, about 30 kilometers away from the research institute.

"This red one represents an S-class mutated species. I don't know the specific type, but it's far enough away from us that we don't need to worry too much. Even if it charges at us..." Liu Wenbin glanced at Yan Ziming and continued:

"Even if it charges at us, you're still here!"

Liu Wenbin's tone was full of admiration.

He was ready to depart before Yan Ziming and the others arrived, but then Deputy Commander Huang Tao sent him a message—to assign a few more people to his troops.

Liu Wenbin was initially dissatisfied. They were about to depart, so why send people here? Wasn't this delaying their mission? But despite his dissatisfaction, he still had to obediently listen to Huang Tao.

However, Huang Tao's next sentence completely dispelled his dissatisfaction.

Level seven.

Huang Tao told him personally that one of the people among them was a seventh-level ability user, which made Liu Wenbin extremely happy.

My own unit was actually assigned a seventh-tier ability user? This is fantastic news!

High-level superhumans are usually elusive, rarely seen, and mostly stationed at important posts. It's highly unlikely they'd be assigned to an infantry company.

This also serves as a safeguard; with such a powerful figure on the side, achieving zero casualties is not impossible!

The group led by Liu Wenbin were not only his subordinates, but also his brothers and comrades. He knew he couldn't afford to offend this powerful figure if he wanted his brothers to return safely, so Liu Wenbin gave Yan Ziming and the others a lot of face.

Sensing the admiration in Liu Wenbin's tone, Yan Ziming finally understood why he had been so polite to them; it all boiled down to four words:

Might makes right!

If you are strong enough, you will naturally be respected by many people. This applies everywhere, including the military.

Yan Ziming, without any modesty, said casually:

"Yes, we'll help if there are any difficulties."

"You've really had a hard time."

While Yan Ziming and Liu Wenbin were talking, the car's walkie-talkie rang, and the crackling static was unpleasant to hear.

"Company commander, we've spotted a horde of zombies about two kilometers ahead. I estimate there are around a hundred of them, right in the middle of the road. Please give us your instructions."

Liu Wenbin immediately asked:

"Are there only zombies? Are there any other mutated species?"

After a brief period of noise on the other end of the radio, a reply came through:

No other variant species have been found so far.

"Have the brothers in the second and fourth rows go up and clear them out, but remember not to make too much noise."

"receive."

As soon as he finished speaking, seven armored vehicles rushed out from the armored formation, accelerated forward, and instantly overtook Yan Ziming and her group by a large margin.

Liu Wenbin continued to issue orders:

"The main force will advance in formation at a constant speed."

"Received."

Yan Ziming listened silently to the conversation on the walkie-talkie without being moved. They were just some small zombies, and there was no need for them to take action. If two platoons couldn't handle a hundred or so zombies, they might as well turn back as soon as possible.

"What are our personnel configurations?" Yan Ziming asked abruptly.

"Um?"

Seemingly surprised by Yan Ziming's sudden question, Liu Wenbin paused for a moment, then quickly realized what was happening:

"Our company has 118 men, equipped with 4 12.77mm heavy machine guns, 15 7.62mm light machine guns, 5.56mm automatic rifles per man, 25 rocket launchers, and 9 light main battle tanks."

Yan Ziming nodded, lost in thought:

"The individual weapon configurations are decent and can support a low-intensity battle. The only shortcoming is the tanks. It would be better if they could be replaced with heavy main battle tanks."

However, this idea is somewhat unrealistic.

While heavy main battle tanks have much stronger firepower than light tanks, their weight generally exceeds 40 tons. In urban areas, driving such heavy vehicles on the road would likely cause road collapses, and the tanks might break down halfway before reaching their destination.

Light tanks are sufficient for dealing with mutated species below S-rank, but their power is somewhat insufficient against S-rank or higher.

If that S-rank monster charges at us, then it'll be up to me and Qianxue.

Yan Ziming was calculating in his mind, thinking about his next course of action.

Suddenly, she looked up and saw several dark figures darting through the buildings and blocking the convoy's path.

"Commander Liu, it's a predator."

Yan Ziming only glanced at them before completely losing interest, because they were all below level C, and a few 7.62mm machine guns could easily take them out if you aimed accurately.

Liu Wenbin frowned:

"Sun Lei, didn't you call yourself a sharpshooter? Here are four light machine guns. Take a few men and wipe them out."

"receive."

"Haha, leave these scumbags to me!"

The sound of a car door opening came from behind. Liu Wenbin hurriedly turned around and found that Tian Tian, ​​who was sitting in the back seat, had disappeared.

Yan Ziming covered her eyes, seemingly unable to bear watching any longer.

"This idiot..."

Chapter 107 Failed Attempt to Show Off

After silently cursing Tian Tian for being such a fool, Yan Ziming said to Liu Wenbin:

"Sir, let's leave this to her. She's a fourth-tier lightning ability user; a few predators won't be a problem for her."

“Okay, then I’ll leave this to her.” After thinking for a moment, Liu Wenbin agreed to Yan Ziming’s request.

He picked up the radio and issued new orders:

"Sun Lei, the previous order is canceled. You now take men and provide cover for the girl who is charging forward. Make sure she doesn't get hurt."

"Sun Lei received it."

Yan Ziming looked at Liu Wenbin with admiration. People who can reach the position of company commander are indeed capable. Even when their side has the advantage, they still maintain a certain level of vigilance, which is commendable.

.....

On the other side, Tian Tian had already rushed into the encirclement of five predators. Her body crackled with lightning, preventing the predators from getting close.

But they dare not, even though they dare every single day!

She used electromagnetism to roll up a layer of iron sand on the ground, which coalesced into a black iron sword with wisps of blue electricity crackling around it.

Tian Tian leaped forward and landed on top of a predator with lightning speed, plunging his black sword into its back.

The black sword instantly pierced into the predator's body. The burning pain of the iron filings grinding against its flesh made the predator roar and writhe wildly in place.

At this moment, the iron filings on the blade began to spin, and the black sword instantly transformed into something like a chainsaw, slicing along the predator's back all the way to its brain, then tearing its body in two. The flesh cut by the black sword was charred, and the color of the flesh had turned the color of being roasted.

"Roar--"

The other four predators, seeing their companion killed, showed no fear. Instead, they roared simultaneously and charged towards Tian Tian.

"Come on, eat my Thunder Forest!"

Tian Tian said something in a very childish way, and a layer of lightning burst out in front of him, surging outwards in a vertical shape and instantly engulfing the four predators.

The instant they came into contact with the lightning, their bodies were instantly paralyzed by the intense electric current, rendering them unable to move. Brilliant lightning burst into clusters of blood on their bodies, and their painful screams echoed endlessly.

It lasted for about ten seconds. Tiantian was already a little tired, so she put away "Thunder Forest" and left behind four corpses that had been electrocuted and turned into charred flesh, emitting a burnt smell.

"call..."

Tian wiped the sweat from his brow, seemingly quite pleased with his victory. "Wasn't I incredibly cool just now?" he thought.

That move she just used was something she created herself, and she named it "Forest of Lightning." Although the name was quite chuunibyou (a Japanese term for someone with delusions of grandeur), it sounded incredibly cool to a chuunibyou girl her age.

These goofy young people really bring a lot of joy!

Sitting in the car, Yan Ziming glanced at Tiantian's vain expression and couldn't help but laugh.

and...

Yan Ziming glanced at the two predator corpses behind Tiantian, his eyes filled with profound meaning.

"This child is still too young. Is the enemy really not dead?"

Yan Ziming casually expressed her opinion on Tiantian. Xiao Qi, who was listening from the side, was completely confused. Only Ye Qianxue and Liu Wenbin understood the implication in Yan Ziming's words.

"Sister Zimo, what are you saying?" Xiaoqi leaned closer and asked.

Yan Ziming chuckled: "Just watch, you're in for a treat soon."

Sure enough, in the next second, a predator that had been electrocuted by Tian Tian suddenly sprang up and crawled to Tian Tian's feet in an instant.

"Varied--!"

Tiantian only had time to scream before being knocked more than ten meters away by the predator, bouncing twice upon landing.

A sudden tightness gripped her chest, and Tian Tian felt as if her internal organs had shifted, but before she could check, the predator pounced.
