Post-Apocalyptic Wasteland: The Female Protagonist Has Become a God

Cang Xingyue followed the villager who delivered the message to the base's permanent residence.

System: "Mission triggered: Rescue the base residents."

This task is really keeping up with current events.

Upon entering the room, she saw Tuhu pacing anxiously. When he saw her, he quickly came over, looking very worried.

"Guardian Chief Cang, a group of base residents went out to other bases to exchange supplies and specialties a couple of days ago, and they haven't returned yet."

"We just received their distress message. They encountered zombies on their way back and hid in a cave, but are surrounded by zombies and cannot escape. They are requesting the base to send a superhuman to rescue them."

"Location, number of people?"

"One hundred people in Wuluan Mountain."

Tu Hu's expression was solemn: "The old man entrusted them to Chief Guard Cang. Please be sure to bring all the residents back."

"Commander, you flatter me. I can't guarantee everything, but I can assure you that I will bring back every single surviving resident."

It must be said that Tuhu is a competent base manager. He cares deeply for his residents, which is admirable.

"Okay, okay." Tuhu nodded repeatedly.

"Then I'm going."

"Alright, I'm leaving everything to you. Please be careful on your journey, Chief Guard."

He nodded, turned, and left.

"System, give me the location of Wuluan Mountain."

System: "Transmitting location images of Wuluan Mountain to you, host."

Hearing the aged voice of the system in her mind, she missed the proper system she used to have.

Sigh, what a perfectly good system, but after the upgrade, it doesn't feel like a proper system anymore.

On the other side, Tu Ying chased after Qiao Yushuang out of the infirmary and found her on the street, where she was wrapped up tightly.

She immediately took off after him. When Qiao Yushuang turned around and saw Tu Ying chasing after her, she panicked and began to run away, shoving the residents blocking her way.

"Make way." Tu Ying squeezed through the crowd and went to her.

Just then, a vendor came pushing a cart full of flour.

He shouted, "Make way! Please make way, everyone!"

Seeing this, Qiao Yushuang used her silver string to roll up a bag of flour and threw it at Tu Ying. Then, in mid-air, she used the silver string to pierce the bag and tear it open, instantly spilling out white flour.

Tu Ying stopped and raised his hand to shield his eyes.

"Ouch, my flour! Don't go! Pay up!"

The vendor grabbed Qiao Yushuang, trying to stop her from leaving, but she kicked him away.

"Go away!"

He then used the silver string to roll him up and threw him towards Tu Ying.

Just as Tu Ying lowered his hand, a person flew towards him, and he instinctively reached out to catch it.

Qiao Yushuang took the opportunity to escape.

The merchant, held in Princess Tu Ying's arms, blushed and said shyly, "Young Master Tu Ying~"

Tu Ying felt a chill and coldly threw him to the ground.

Looking back at the spot where Qiao Yushuang had just been, she was nowhere to be seen.

Damn it! She got away!

Qiao Yushuang stumbled and turned until she reached a secluded spot. Unable to hold on any longer, she collapsed to the ground, gasping for breath. Her clothes and the sheets she was wrapped in were soaked with blood.

She was filled with resentment.

"Cang Xingyue, even if I have to die, I'll take you with me! I'll make you all pay with your lives!"

She looked around and saw no one else but herself, with the base's protective wall right in front of her.

"Ah, this is truly a stroke of luck!"

She stood up, twisted the silver strings together into one, and controlled it to penetrate the wall, again and again, creating a square hole that looked like a serrated postage stamp.

Then, a silver string was threaded through the center and pulled, and a square section of the wall was pulled down.

She repeated this process over and over, making the hole in the wall wider and wider.

The little boy hiding in the tree saw everything. He was holding a small square sandbag in his hand. He covered his mouth tightly with his hand, not daring to make a sound, for fear of being discovered and silenced.

He recognized her through the supernatural power she released; she was the woman who had strangled him with the silver string earlier.

He was playing a game of throwing beanbags with his friends, but he missed and threw one into a tree. He climbed up the tree to retrieve it and unexpectedly witnessed this scene.

When the hole in the wall was large enough for a car to pass through, Qiao Yushuang stopped and walked out through the hole.

After she left, the little boy waited a while before daring to climb down the tree. As soon as he landed, he took off running.

When his friends saw him return, they quickly took the sandbag from him.

"Xiao Le, why are you so late? I've been waiting for you for ages! Do you still want to play?"

"I saw bad guys breaching the base's protective wall."

"Huh? Xiao Le, should we go tell the base commander?"

"Yes! Let's go find the base commander."

As Qiao Yushuang left the base, a car drove by on the road, and she rushed over to stop it.

With a sudden stop, the car came to a halt just in front of her.

The driver rolled down the window, stuck his head out, and yelled angrily, "Are you looking to die?"

No sooner had he finished speaking than a thick silver string pierced his head, killing him instantly.

Qiao Yushuang reached through the car window to open the car door, pulled the driver to the ground, sat in the driver's seat, and stepped on the gas, driving away.

Wuluan Mountain.

Cang Xingyue arrived at Wuluan Mountain, which is located south of the base. The mountain is shrouded in mist and contains several caves.

After searching several caves without success, the system's voice slowly sounded.

“Host, there is a cave a hundred meters ahead. There is a dead tree outside the cave entrance. That is where the residents are hiding.”

It seems that the system upgrade has its benefits; she was never reminded of these things before.

As the system indicated, a group of zombies were indeed seen wandering outside. The entrance to the cave was blocked by a large rock, and the voices of people inside could be faintly heard.

"Are the residents of the Dongliu base inside?"

Her voice attracted the attention of the zombie horde, who rushed towards her in an instant. She calmly retreated step by step.

The sound reached the cave, and the previously dejected and discouraged residents instantly felt a surge of hope, running to the cave entrance and shouting out:

"It's us! Are you the superhuman who came to save us? Please save us!"

Seeing the wandering, scattered zombies swarm towards her and gather into a group, she smiled calmly.

"Very good, solved in one go."

The intense flames, accompanied by a heatwave, rushed towards the zombies, engulfing them and turning them to ashes in an instant.

Holding the Divine Moon Longbow, he shouted, "Everyone inside, retreat!"

After waiting a while, he aimed the longbow at the cave entrance, pulled back the bowstring, and an arrow flew out, blasting open the rocks at the cave entrance.

"You can come out now."

Upon hearing her words, the residents inside the cave came out one after another.

After everyone had come out, he glanced around and asked, "Are there any casualties?"

One resident replied, "No, all one hundred of us are here."

He nodded: "Let's go."

On the other side, Qiao Yushuang had already driven to the zombie city and parked her car some distance from the city gate.

A silver string, formed into a single strand, extends from the carriage window, wraps around the gate's switch, and rotates to one side.

With a loud bang, the city gate slowly opened.

Zombies poured out of the city instantly.
