After a while, Ye Zhiyin looked at the three of them with a strange expression.

Seeing her gaze, the three of them exchanged glances, but couldn't see anything wrong with themselves.

"Sister/Zhiyin, why are you looking at us like that?" they asked, somewhat puzzled.

Looking at the three people who were becoming more and more alike, Ye Zhiyin wondered who had led whom astray, and sighed helplessly.

Lu Yan, with his arm around Ye Zhiyin, explained with a look of disgust, "Did you go to dig coal? Why are you getting darker and darker?"

The three looked at each other and realized they had gotten quite a bit darker than before, even though the ultraviolet rays outside were still very strong.

"Well, we got tanned from sun exposure. We didn't expect to get so tanned so quickly," Meng Fuwen explained sheepishly.

After saying that, he felt something was wrong. If the two of them weren't always inseparable, would they still be running around even when they weren't on missions?

Before he could say anything, Ye Xingzhu and Gu He echoed his words, nodding quickly and saying, "Yes, it's quite sunny outside."

Ye Zhiyin couldn't help but laugh out loud; she knew that Ye Xingzhu could be a bit silly at times.

Unexpectedly, the sociable Meng Fuwen and the cautious Gu He turned out the same way after they became acquainted.

Hearing her laughter, Ye Xingzhu asked innocently, "Sister, what are you laughing at?"

"It's nothing, I just want to have hot pot tonight," Ye Zhiyin said, taking out some ingredients and changing the subject.

Her clumsy attempt to change the subject brought a smile to Lu Yan's eyes, and he gently rubbed the hand on her shoulder.

The others didn't care about any of that; their attention was instantly drawn to the various fresh ingredients and the fact that they could eat there that evening.

"Okay, we'll prepare it. You just need to eat," Gu He said.

"Yes, thank you for your help," Ye Zhiyin said casually.

"No trouble at all, no trouble at all," Meng Fuwen said with a smile.

This is hardly a problem; it's clearly a reward for them. They feel embarrassed if they don't do some work.

Although they are teammates and Ye Zhiyin has a close relationship with Lu Yan, even brothers keep clear accounts.

Ye Xingzhu was alright, after all, she was her own sister. Lu Yan was the same, since he had entrusted all his supplies to Ye Zhiyin to store in her space.

He doesn't have much space of his own, but he can help his two brothers keep things safe.

That evening, Ye Zhiyin and her companion had just finished a vigorous workout and were lying down catching their breath.

As soon as the mosaic in front of her disappeared, Xiao Qi immediately said, "Host, the zombie army will be here in two hours!"

Ye Zhiyin, who had just been pulled into a hug by Lu Yan, leaned against him and asked, "Is this zombie siege part of the plot?"

"No, this should be the butterfly effect caused by your arrival, host," Xiao Qi explained.

"I understand." Ye Zhiyin grabbed the rather improper hand of the person behind her.

Lu Yan's hand was grabbed, and he couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong?"

"The zombies are coming. Tell the people at the base to get ready." After saying that, she lifted the blanket, picked up her nightgown from the floor, and put it on.

They still had dealings with the military personnel at the base, from the first time they helped the protagonist, Huo Shang, to several subsequent missions where they encountered each other.

Upon hearing this, Lu Yan quickly stood up and put on his clothes: "Okay, I'll call them to go find someone."

As for why he didn't ask Ye Zhiyin how she knew, it was because she had previously mentioned that she had a special ability to sense things.

Several times during their missions, Ye Zhiyin warned them that zombies were coming, thus avoiding a lot of danger.

"Okay, I'll take a shower first and then come find you." She feels uncomfortable if she doesn't shower.

Although Lu Yan also wanted to take a shower, things were more important, so he could only shower when he got back: "Take your time, I'm leaving now." He went up, hugged her, kissed her, and walked out.

Ye Zhiyin thought that since she had already sent someone to remind them, the people at the base would surely be able to detect the zombies' movements.

After everyone left, Ye Zhiyin took a shower and changed into clothes that were easy to move in before going out.

When she arrived at the base gate, soldiers were already orderly arranging the superhumans everywhere, and even ordinary people were carrying weapons.

There are also people specifically assigned to cook, so that everyone can replenish their energy in time in case they get hungry and weak.

"Xiao Qi, have the people at the base found zombies?"

"Yes, host. After Lu Yan led his men to find the male lead, Huo Shang, they took out specialized reconnaissance equipment and immediately began their operation after confirming the information."

"The male lead is quite decisive, and the female lead is also good." Ye Zhiyin had met the female lead twice before, and both times she had a decent impression of her.

Xiao Qi said, "The main problem is that the male and female leads are incompetent. If the host doesn't come, then this world is doomed."

"I can't save the world, and I don't want to be a hero," Ye Zhiyin said calmly.

"This is a matter between the male and female leads; you can decide what to do, host."

"Yes, I'll help a little." After all, the mission isn't finished yet.

She saw Ye Xingzhu and the others and walked straight over to them.

"How is it?" She finished showering and changing clothes, estimating that the time should be about right.

Knowing what she meant, Lu Yan said, "There are a lot of zombies gathered. They should arrive in about half an hour."

Upon hearing this, Ye Zhiyin glanced at the group of people, whose expressions were all somewhat serious. She comforted them, saying, "There are so many people at the base, don't worry."

"Sis, this is the first time I've ever faced so many zombies. I heard they could surround the base several times over."

Just imagining that scene, with its dense hordes of zombies, sent chills down Ye Xingzhu's spine.

Ye Zhiyin patted his shoulder: "Don't worry, I won't let anything happen to you." The mission can't fail.

Upon hearing this, Ye Xingzhu assumed that his sister was comforting him and looked somewhat touched: "I will protect you too."

Ye Zhiyin smiled and didn't refute his words. Lu Yan pulled her over and said seriously, "Me too."

Meng Fuwen and Gu He exchanged a glance, then put their arms around Ye Xingzhu and walked to the side, giving the two time to talk.

"Let's go, let's go to the side and let them feed the others some dog food. It would be best if the zombies could also get some later and stuff them to death." Gu He rarely made a joke.

Meng Fuwen smiled and said, "That's a good idea, but it's a bit difficult."

Ye Xingzhu was amused: "Hahaha."

"The same as what?" Ye Zhiyin asked deliberately, a smirk playing on her lips.

Lu Yan looked at her earnest and determined expression: "I will protect you too. You have more than just your younger brother."

"Okay, I won't let anything happen to you." After all, he's one of her people, and Ye Zhiyin won't just look after him.

Hearing her words, Lu Yan felt helpless. She was coaxing him just like she was coaxing her younger brother, but somehow it didn't feel so bad.

The two exchanged a few jokes, and the atmosphere relaxed.

Ye Zhiyin's gaze shifted to the male and female protagonists standing on the other side, both of whom also looked ready for battle.

She spread her mental energy to check the number and location of the zombie army, and got a sense of the situation.

"Xiao Qi, there must be a zombie king controlling so many zombies, right?"
