Quick Wear: After Saving the Cannon Fodder, I Became a God

Chapter 173 The Poor Female Protagonist Whose Opportunity Was Taken Away by a Reborn Man in the End

Soon, Gu Qian, Gu Xi and Chi Yan had lived in Ning City for half a month.

During this period, they experienced three major zombie waves and several small-scale zombie attacks.

Gu Xi's special abilities became more powerful and he could use them with ease through repeated actual combat.

On this day, Gu Qian and Gu Xi were clearing out the zombies lingering on the edge of Ning City as usual, while Chi Yan was at the other end of Ning City.

At this moment, Gu Qian suddenly frowned and looked up at the sky sharply.

Something is wrong!

"Sister, what's wrong?" Gu Xi noticed that her sister was acting strangely and asked quickly.

"It's going to rain." Gu Qian said in a low voice, with a hint of solemnity in his tone.

Gu Xi looked at Gu Qian in confusion, not understanding why her sister was so worried when it was raining.

However, the next second, the sky, which was originally a little gloomy, was suddenly covered with dark clouds, glowed red, and thunder was faintly heard.

The red light was as rich as blood, making people shudder.

Gu Qian had a bad feeling in her heart, and she immediately pulled Gu Xi up, "Let's go! Let's go inside, the rain is not right!"

At the same time, Chi Yan also felt something unusual.

It looked up at the sky, roared, and then immediately ran into the room to hide.

A flash of lightning streaked across the sky, followed by a downpour of rain.

The rain poured down like a waterfall, as if to drown the whole world.

Gu Qian observed outside and found that this was not ordinary rain, but rain mixed with black liquid, which made a "sizzling" sound when dripping on the ground.

"Chi Yan, you didn't get wet in the rain, did you?" Gu Qian asked anxiously in his heart.

"No, Master. I hid when I noticed something was wrong."

"That's good." Gu Qian breathed a sigh of relief.

"Sister, what is this?" Gu Xi asked in surprise.

"I don't know, but... it's definitely not a good thing." Gu Qian frowned, his heart full of worry.

As time went on, the rain got heavier and heavier, and the black liquid became more and more. It seeped into the soil and eroded everything.

"Tuanzi, do you know what this is?"

"Host, this rain emits a substance that can raise the level of zombies and turn people into zombies. Of course, there is also a chance that people will gain superpowers, but the probability is very small."

"You mean anyone who gets caught in the rain will most likely turn into a zombie?"

"Not only that, some people will turn into zombies as long as they come into contact with the substance in the air when it rains. Regardless of whether they touch the rain or not."

Gu Qian's heart sank, this meant that there would be countless more zombies, and even the well-protected base would suffer heavy damage from this sudden rain.

"Is this also a means to push this world towards a higher level?"

The system hesitated for a moment, "Yes, you can say that."

"This is the result automatically obtained by the algorithm. Host, you eliminated the zombies too quickly. In less than a month, you almost eliminated one-tenth of the zombies in the world."

"If no action is taken, this evolution will fail."

"So I can't stop it at all, right? On the contrary, I should just ignore it completely. I shouldn't even kill zombies. I should just watch from the sidelines and let the world develop naturally?"

"That's not the case. Host, you are now attracting zombies, and you still have to kill them. It's just that you are too efficient. If you are not stopped, you may end the apocalypse early."

"So they can only use these external means to increase the number of zombies and maintain the balance."

"Got it." Gu Qian closed his eyes and took a deep breath, then opened them again after a few seconds and answered.

She didn't know how to describe her current mood, she just felt as if she was being teased by God.

In their eyes, those living beings are nothing more than chess pieces whose life and death they can manipulate at will.

It was so easy to turn hundreds of millions of people into zombies just to make the world evolve into a higher level of existence. This made Gu Qian feel extremely uncomfortable.

Gu Qian closed her eyes again, trying to convince herself to let go of this emotion, but she felt herself immersed in a mysterious state of mind.

After a while, she slowly opened her eyes and found that she had successfully broken through to the eighth form of "The Art of Cultivating the Spirit".

A bitter smile unconsciously revealed itself on the corners of Gu Qian's mouth, because she did not want to comprehend and improve herself in this way.

This would only make her feel guilty for stepping on the corpses and blood of others to achieve her goals.

"Sister, what's wrong with you? I called you many times just now and you didn't respond!" Gu Xi said, pulling Gu Qian's hand.

Gu Qian came back to her senses, forced a smile and said, "It's okay, I was just lost in thought."

"Oh oh" Gu Xi nodded, not quite understanding, and then said: "Sister, the rain has stopped, should we go back?"

Has the rain stopped?

Gu Qian glanced outside and found that the rain had indeed stopped and the sky no longer had the bloody color it had before, but was just darker than before.

She released her spiritual sense to investigate the situation of zombies near the city.

She found that those low-level zombies had indeed become much stronger. Not only had their speed increased, but their strength seemed to have increased as well.

"Oh" Gu Qian sighed deeply.

The speed at which humans' superpowers improve cannot keep up with the speed at which zombies are increasing in number and becoming stronger.

"Let's not go back. Let's continue to kill zombies." Gu Qian looked at Gu Xi and said, "Xixi, you have to improve your strength quickly. Sister will also try her best to find crystal cores of high-level zombies for you."

Gu Qian and Gu Xi continued to search for zombies on the edge of the city.

Most of the time, it was Gu Xi who used his lightning powers to attack zombies, and Gu Qian was only responsible for ensuring that he was not hurt by the zombies.

Suddenly, a skinny zombie attacked Gu Xi from behind.

It approached silently and then pounced on Gu Xi.

Gu Qian made a move instantly. A sharp ice blade quickly condensed in her hand, and then she slashed at the zombie without hesitation.

The ice blade cut through the air, bringing a chill, and accurately hit the zombie's neck. The zombie's head fell to the ground and rolled to the ground.

"Xixi, be careful!" Gu Qian advised.

Gu Xi nodded, took a deep breath, and adjusted himself.

Then, he released the powerful force of thunder and lightning again to attack other zombies.

Lightning intertwined in the air to form an electric net, covering the surrounding zombies. The zombies were shocked and trembled all over, roaring in pain.

After clearing out this wave of zombies, Gu Xi’s supernatural powers were exhausted.

He was panting, a trace of fatigue on his face. He looked at the zombie corpses all around him, and a sense of accomplishment surged in his heart.

"Xixi, take a rest first and recover your superpowers." Gu Qian walked to Gu Xi, patted his shoulder gently and said softly.
