"Host's guess is correct, the Zombie King is hiding in the shadows," Xiao Qi nodded.

"This zombie king is quite clever. I'll go and have a go with it later."

She used her mental energy to scan her surroundings, and after searching for a while, she finally spotted a zombie that looked very much like a human moving with the army in the shadows.

Ye Zhiyin thought of post-apocalyptic novels, where the zombie king is usually dealt with first, then the other zombies are easier to handle, and the zombies that follow will lose their way.

Not wanting to draw attention to herself, she could only quietly and quickly eliminate the zombie leader.

The sound of zombie footsteps grew louder and louder. Everyone stood on the city gate of the base, their hands unconsciously gripping their weapons, their eyes fixed on the distance.

The dense horde of zombies instantly turned ordinary people pale, and even those with superpowers who frequently faced zombies did not look too good.

However, everyone knew they couldn't back down, for their families back at the base, and for the base's rewards.

To get everyone ready for battle, the base has gone to great lengths, providing a huge amount of food to allow ordinary people to participate in the bloody fight.

After all, this is the apocalypse, and ordinary people have a harder time than those with superpowers. They often don't even have enough to eat.

Moreover, this is the largest base in the capital. If this place can't hold out, then it's only a matter of time before other places can too. Nobody wants to keep running around.

Some ordinary people even thought that if they awakened superpowers during this battle, they wouldn't have to worry so much in the future.

The superhumans even thought that if they won, there would be countless crystal cores among all the zombies here. Once they obtained the crystal cores, their superhuman abilities could be enhanced.

Thinking of this, although everyone was still a little scared and worried, their hearts were still burning with excitement.

When the zombies got close, the protagonist directed everyone to use their superpowers in one round, followed by a round of gunfire, with each group taking turns.

Alternating between them gives people time to catch their breath.

When they ran out of bullets and the superhumans had used up half of their abilities, everyone went down to kill zombies.

Ye Zhiyin also took a knife and joined the main group in cutting. She not only kept an eye on the situation of her own team members, but also on the zombie king.

She would also lend a helping hand to ordinary people in need.

This is no ordinary middle-aged man; he just picked up a knife, mustered his courage, and slashed at the neck of a zombie.

Whether it was due to excessive nervousness or something else, the knife got stuck in the zombie's neck. As the zombie lunged at him, he collapsed to the ground.

"Don't come any closer! Ah, help!"

Ye Zhiyin was right next to him. After seeing this, she kicked the knife that was stuck in the zombie's neck, and the head and knife fell directly to the ground.

"If you don't want to die, grab your knife and get up now."

The middle-aged man realized what was happening, immediately crawled over to pick up the knife, and stood up: "Thank you, thank you."

Ye Zhiyin ignored him and slowly moved towards the zombie king.

Ye Xingzhu and Lu Yan, who had been watching her closely, approached her with a puzzled look and asked, "Sister, why did you run to the side?"

"It's safer if we stay closer to us," Lu Yan said.

"I've found the guy controlling these zombies. Let's deal with him first," Ye Zhiyin said in a low voice.

"You're going alone? No, it's too dangerous." Lu Yan frowned slightly.

Ye Xingzhu nodded and said, "Yes, sister, it must be very powerful to be able to control so many zombies."

The situation was urgent, and Ye Zhiyin didn't have time to say more: "I'm confident. There are too many zombies, and we can't let this go unchecked." After saying that, she walked to the side.

Ye Xingzhu was a little anxious: "Sister!"

He wanted to follow, but Lu Yan stopped him: "I'm going to help her. You stay here and be careful too."

Seeing that the two of them were running so fast, Ye Xingzhu had no choice but to vent her frustration by not wanting to cause them any more trouble. She could only worry while hacking at the zombies to vent her anger.

Ye Zhiyin, carrying her knife, had just slashed at the zombie king when she sensed a surge of mental energy approaching, so she activated her own mental energy.

The zombie king was no match for her and was defeated in just a few seconds, being dealt with by her.

With her powerful mental strength, she controlled the zombies that were still following her to leave.

Just as she withdrew her mental energy, she heard a worried voice behind her: "Yinyin, are you alright?"

Ye Zhiyin turned around and saw that it was Lu Yan. She shook her head and said, "It's okay, it's resolved."

Seeing that she was indeed alright, Lu Yan didn't ask her how she solved the problem. He took her hand and said, "Next time... never mind, I'll speed up and catch up with you next time."

He initially wanted to tell her not to be impulsive next time, but he figured she wouldn't listen, so he decided to just keep a closer eye on her himself.

"Let's go back first." Ye Zhiyin smiled, knowing he was worried about her.

“Okay, go back and let your brother complain about your behavior.” Lu Yan pulled her forward.

Ye Zhiyin: ...

The battle went smoothly. Although no one knew why the zombies had suddenly retreated, everyone was still very happy.

Ye Zhiyin was alright, and Ye Xingzhu was easy to appease, which relieved her.

Through this incident, the higher-ups at the base realized that one of them could sense the zombies, which prompted the entire base to make thorough preparations. They came to express their gratitude.

These matters were left to Lu Yan and the others to handle; Ye Zhiyin didn't socialize much.

The base has survived several zombie hordes since then.

A few years later, Gu He, Meng Fuwen, and Ye Xingzhu all found partners, and since they all had a lot of points, they all moved out.

Ye Zhiyin and Lu Yan also received their marriage certificate issued by the base and treated everyone to a meal, as did the others.

Thirty-five years after the apocalypse, experts have developed a cure for the zombie virus, preventing further infections.

The world began to rebuild because everyone had been constantly improving themselves for the past few decades, either going on missions or fighting zombies.

Ye Zhiyin didn't have any children of her own, but Ye Xingzhu often brought her grandson to visit her, and she couldn't get rid of him because she found him noisy.

When she reached a certain age, she first saw off Lu Yan and the others, and finally Ye Xingzhu, before leaving herself.

Back in the system space, Zhong Ning lay on the sofa and rested for a while before slowly opening her eyes.

Xiao Qi spoke up from the side, "Host, shall we settle the payment?"

“Settle the accounts!” Zhong Ning nodded and said.

"The side quest in the last world rewarded me with 20,000 points, which is more generous than before," Zhong Ning remarked.

Xiao Qi smiled and said, "Yes, host."

Zhong Ning glanced at her steadily rising cultivation level and, satisfied, decided to take a break for a while.

After some time, she returned to the system space: "Let's go, Xiao Qi, to the next world."

"Okay, host, let's go."
