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

"Sister, help!"

Yu Qing suddenly let out a sharp cry for help, her eyes red as she turned around to plead for assistance.

Nan Ruanruan snapped out of her thoughts and glanced down.

With her guarding them, no alien species will appear that could endanger their lives.

As expected, it wasn't some kind of alien species that could kill people.

An angry earth-type field mouse crawled out of its burrow.

It opened its mouth, and a inch-long, earth-yellow light blade shot towards Yu Zhi, who had woken it up.

Yu Zhi was caught off guard and ended up with a bloody wound on his shoulder.

He winced in pain, his face draining of color instantly, turning deathly pale.

“I told you, I would intervene when your lives are in danger, and this field mouse won’t kill you.”

Nan Ruanruan took a milk candy out of her pocket and popped it into her mouth, showing no intention of making a move.

"Also, it's been almost three months since the apocalypse began, and if you can't even handle a field mouse that's smaller than your foot..."

Nan Ruanruan didn't say what she meant next, but Yu Zhi understood.

If they can't even deal with the weakest of the alien species, they won't be able to survive.

"what!"

Yu Zhi raised the dagger in his hand, shouted loudly, and charged towards the field mouse.

He wanted to kill the field mouse; he wanted to live on with his sister and his parents' wishes.

The field mouse was startled by his sudden outburst and instinctively scurried back into its hole.

In a moment of panic, Yu Zhi lunged forward and lay prone in front of the cave entrance.

With the courage he mustered, he brandished the dagger and stabbed the field mouse viciously.

Yu Zhi's aim was terrible, but the field mouse's butt was so fat that it filled the entire entrance to the burrow.

By sheer accident, he accidentally plunged the dagger into the field mouse's rear end.

'squeak--'

The field mouse let out a sharp cry of pain and darted forward.

But the dagger was firmly stuck in its rear end, and even the slightest movement caused excruciating pain.

To crawl back into the hole, the first thing to do is get rid of the knife in my buttocks.

The field mouse shrank back, crawled out of its burrow again, and turned to bite Yu Zhi.

When Yu Zhi, who was facing an alien species alone for the first time, looked at the fierce and ferocious field mouse, most of his courage immediately dissipated.

When people panic, they are more likely to make mistakes.

He pulled out the dagger, intending to stab the field mouse in the head, but his hand trembled and the dagger ended up stabbing into the ground next to him.

When it tried to pull it out again, the field mouse, which had already activated its earth-type ability, unleashed tremendous force and stomped the dagger completely into the ground.

Then it continued to lunge forward.

Seeing that the field mouse was about to bite his face, Yu Zhi, in a moment of desperation, grabbed the field mouse tightly with both hands and pressed it firmly to the ground.

The field mouse grew even angrier and tilted its head back to bite Yu Zhi's right hand.

Yu Zhi's right hand immediately had a chunk of flesh torn off at the base of his thumb, and blood gushed out.

"what!"

The excruciating pain caused cold sweat to instantly bead on Yu Zhi's forehead, and his face, which had just regained a sliver of color, turned deathly pale again.

When Yu Qing saw Yu Zhi injured, her mind went blank with anxiety, and she didn't know what to do. She stood there helplessly, tears streaming down her face.

"If you don't help him, he won't have a brother!"

Nan Ruanruan calmly observed everything below and reminded them, "The stones at your feet can be used as weapons."

As if waking from a dream, Yu Qing quickly picked up a sharp stone, ran to Yu Zhi's side, squatted down, and raised the stone to smash it against the field mouse's head.

Sensing danger, the field mouse tilted its head and spat out several earth-yellow light blades at Yu Qing.

"what!"

Startled, Yu Qing stumbled backward and instinctively lay down on the ground.

A tan blade of light grazed her cheek, shaving off a few strands of her hair.

Although she only lost some hair, it still frightened Yu Qing so much that she lay on the ground for a long time, too scared to move.

The field mouse repelled Yu Qing, then looked at Yu Zhi again, and opened its mouth to unleash several earth-yellow light blades.

Yu Zhi's eyes trembled, and she quickly turned her head to dodge, but she still got a few small scratches on her face.

"Yu Zhi, press it head down into the ground to cut off its source of attack."

Yu Qing, if you don't get up soon, your brother is really going to die.

"Now, immediately pick up the stone in your hand and attack while it's unable to attack!"

Upon hearing Nan Ruanruan's words, Yu Zhi hurriedly endured the pain and got up. Just as the field mouse was about to launch another attack, he shoved it into the hole it had dug itself.

Yu Qing hurriedly crawled to Yu Zhi's side, raised the stone in her hand again, and smashed it hard down on the field mouse's head.

She only has her brother.

If her brother were to pass away as well, she would truly be at a loss.

Yu Qing picked up the stone and smashed it several times. The field mouse was covered in blood and lay motionless.

It looks like it's dead.

But she wasn't sure if she had really killed the field mouse, and subconsciously looked at Nan Ruanruan.

Yu Zhi also turned to look at Nan Ruanruan.

He could no longer feel the field mouse's heartbeat, but he still dared not let go.

"If you don't know if it's dead or not, keep smashing it until its skull is cracked and its fur is torn. Then it's definitely dead."

Nan Ruanruan stood by the roadside, looking down at the dead field mouse, but did not give them the answer directly.

Upon hearing this, Yu Qing raised the stone in her hand again and hurled it fiercely at the field mouse.

After being hit more than twenty times, the field mouse was smashed to pieces, its head flattened.

Yu Qing was panting heavily.

"Alright, little sister, that's enough, it's dead!"

Yu Zhi stopped Yu Qing from continuing to smash the field mouse, and excitedly raised the field mouse in his hand.

"Sister, we did it!"

This was the first time he and his sister had killed a mutant on their own.

"Hmm, well done, dig out its energy stone."

Yu Zhi hurriedly did as instructed, then pulled Yu Qing up the slope to the road, and ran to Nan Ruanruan with the energy stone in hand.

"Sister, here you go!"

There was not a trace of reluctance in his eyes, only gratitude towards Nan Ruanruan.

From today onwards, he might not dare to attack other alien species, but if he encounters a field mouse again, he certainly will.

Field mice are numerous and reproduce rapidly.

He can get a lot of energy stones by killing more field mice, and then he can use the energy stones to exchange for food and water.

That way, he and his sister could survive.
