In a post-apocalyptic world, she was reborn and became the queen of the wilderness.

'Puff--'

Nan Ruanruan suddenly opened her eyes in her sleep and gently shook the blood-stained folding knife in her hand.

A dead black rat lay at the foot of the bed.

Nan Ruanruan glanced at the time; these rats had arrived two hours earlier than in her previous life.

It seems that starting over doesn't mean everything will be the same as in the previous life.

"Ouch, that hurts! What the hell was that?!"

"Help!"

"A rat! It's a rat!"

"Damn it, has this rat gone mad? It actually dared to bite me!"

Screams, curses, and the sound of things being smashed filled the air.

Nan Ruanruan slung her pre-prepared bag over her shoulder, picked up a dagger, and quickly walked out.

She kicked open the door of her neighbor's house on the left.

'squeak--'

Hearing the noise at the door, the rats inside pounced out, their scarlet eyes filled with bloodlust and ferocity.

Nan Ruanruan swung her folding knife and severed its head from its body.

"It's alright, get up!"

Nan Ruanruan kicked the rat's corpse to the doorway and then went over to pull up the woman hiding in the corner.

She was holding a little girl who was almost two years old in her arms, her big eyes filled with fear and tears.

But Nan Ruanruan didn't have time to comfort her; she had to go and save another neighbor.

In her previous life, both of her neighbors had helped her when she was starving and dazed, even though they didn't have much food of their own.

This kindness must be repaid.

"Sister Zhao, I'm going to rescue Sister Fen and Xiao Zhouzhou. You go pack your things, including food, water, and clothes."

We have to get out of here.

After Nan Ruanruan finished speaking, she turned and walked out the door.

She wasn't worried that Zhao Ru and her daughter would be attacked again.

Rats are intelligent yet timid; if they discover that one of their companions has died somewhere, they will not venture in to attack again for a short period of time.

Zhao Ru trembled with fear. She opened her mouth, but found that she couldn't utter a single word. She could only watch helplessly as Nan Ruanruan left.

Some people have already escaped, carrying kitchen knives, brooms, and other tools that could be used as weapons. They are trembling and frantically trying to get into cars to escape.

Rats are creatures that people are terrified of even in normal times, let alone mutated rats that eat people.

After killing several more rats that pounced on her with her knife, Nan Ruanruan kicked open the door of her neighbor on the right.

The room reeked of blood.

"Don't come here, don't come here!"

A disheveled woman shielded her child behind her back, waving an electric mosquito swatter haphazardly in her hand.

A black rat was lying on the dining table, chewing on something, but its eyes were fixed on the woman, waiting for its chance to strike.

Nan Ruanruan strode forward and, in the instant the rat turned around alertly, nailed it to the dining table with a folding knife.

The nearly nine years of suffering in this apocalyptic world have not been in vain.

She kills rats like these, which have just mutated and aren't even worthy of being called Level 1 mutants, without batting an eye.

Seeing the horrifying rat dead, the woman suddenly breathed a sigh of relief and trembled as she squatted down to check if her child was injured.

He completely ignored his arm, which was missing several pieces of flesh.

She disregarded it, but Nan Ruanruan could not.

The surface of the wound has already turned black. If it is not treated soon, and the virus fully invades the body, even a miracle worker will be unable to save it.

By this time, Bai Fen had already checked her child from head to toe.

Seeing that he was alright, she collapsed to the ground, panting heavily.

Nan Ruanruan walked up to Bai Fen and took out a clean folding knife, a bottle of iodine, hemostatic medicine, and a roll of bandage from her bag.

Before the apocalypse, she was a nurse, so it wasn't too strange that she carried these things in her bag.

"Sister Fen, it will hurt a little, please bear with it!"

Nan Ruanruan disinfected the knife, looked up and said something to Bai Fen.

Bai Fen recovered and looked at Nan Ruanruan with gratitude, nodding.

If it weren't for Ruan Ruan, she and her son would have died in the mouths of those rats.

Nan Ruan raised her knife and brought it down.

Before Bai Fen could react, he swiftly sliced ​​away the blackened layer of flesh from the surface of her wound.

After disinfecting the wound with iodine solution, apply hemostatic medicine, and finally wrap it with a bandage, the whole process should take no more than 30 seconds.

This was something I developed while trying to survive in the apocalypse.

In the apocalypse, every second counts as a fight for life.

The pain of having flesh and blood sliced ​​off made Bai Fen's face turn as pale as paper.

A painful groan reached her lips, but she held it back when she saw the terrified look in her five-year-old son's eyes.

She even forced a smile and said to him, "Don't be afraid, Sister Ruan Ruan is a nurse, she will cure your mother."

The little boy bit his lip as he looked at Nan Ruanruan and nodded timidly.

Nan Ruanruan smiled at him, put the unused items back into her backpack, and whispered to Bai Fen what she had said to Zhao Ru earlier.

Bai Fen nodded, "I understand."

"I was planning to move, so I rented a truck. It's coming in handy now. We'll drive to the military base."

Send Lin a message and tell him to go directly to the military base to meet up with you.

The country reacted extremely quickly.

Two hours after the first wave of aliens attacked humans, shelters based on military outposts were established.

There was a military base located 10 kilometers away from them.

Although the initial shelter was established less than three months ago, it was torn apart by the attacks of the alien species.

Despite their best efforts, fate proved unkind, forcing them to flee in batches with the survivors.

But no matter what, it was the best place for Bai Fen and the others.

“Ruan Ruan…”

Zhao Ru's voice came from the doorway. She was carrying her daughter on her back and holding a large suitcase in each hand.

Nan Ruanruan snapped out of her daze, got up, walked quickly to the door, tucked the folding knife into her waistband, and took the box from Zhao Ru's hand.

"Sister Zhao, come with me."

She led Zhao Ru and her daughter toward the truck parked at the door.

After placing the box inside the cargo container, I turned on the emergency light that had been pre-installed inside.

"Sister Zhao, you take Niannian upstairs first. We'll leave once Sister Fen and Xiao Zhouzhou come out."

"Hey!"

The gentle Zhao Ru had already come to regard Nan Ruanruan as her pillar of support, and at this moment, whatever she said went, so she immediately climbed into the cargo box.

Then he pulled his daughter from his back into his arms, sat obediently on the flat suitcase, and stared blankly outside.

The remaining black rats have temporarily retreated due to the death of their companions.

If it weren't for the large patches of blood on the snow, and her neighbor who had greeted her not long ago but was now a cold corpse...

Zhao Ru still thought that the thrilling experience just now was just a dream.
