A cute, timid mushroom mistakenly takes the zombie king for her boyfriend and sticks close to him.

In the pitch-black night, the moonlight was shrouded by dark clouds, and the entire city seemed to be surrounded by a black behemoth. In an abandoned factory, waves of dark figures were creeping around eerily. They moved stiffly, uttering warning roars. The doorway was piled up, and sharp claws made a teeth-grinding sound.

The people inside were in a panic. Even Lu Qiang, a powerful individual with supernatural abilities, felt fear. "How come there are so many zombies?"

The factory is small and remote, and they can easily deal with the small groups of zombies that usually roam around.

But with over twenty zombies at the door and scattered around the windows, even if there were several more of them, Lü Qiang wouldn't be a match for them.

Superpowers are not inexhaustible; like zombies, they have different levels.

Superpowered individuals rely on zombie crystal cores to level up.

Newly zombified zombies are Tier 1, slow-moving, and have weak physical defenses, making them easy to kill.

Second-tier zombies develop small crystal cores in their brains, which can only be killed by a headshot.

Compared to zombies, the condition for a superhuman to advance is to kill a zombie's crystal core, and advancement is difficult; even the strongest, Lü Qiang, is only a level two superhuman.

Not to mention, the zombies move smoothly, they are all second-tier zombies.

Lu Qiang's face turned green. What was even more terrifying was that these zombies seemed to be organized. In addition to the main door, the windows at the back were smashed. The zombies growled hoarsely as they crawled in one after another.

"First, let's deal with all the zombies that are coming in through the window. The rest of you, try to hold the door shut."

Each of the superhumans guarded a window, leaving the ordinary people stunned and in a flurry of activity.

Meng Xiaoyou's wrists were tied, and someone stepped on her twice. Her eyes were bloodshot. She knew that now was not the time to cry out in pain. She was going to die anyway, so what was a little pain?

Out of the corner of her eye, she caught a glimpse of the knife that had been carelessly discarded on the dining table, which seemed to crawl away like a silkworm.

Because her hands were tied behind her back, it was very inconvenient to untie them. Amidst the noise, she squatted by the table in deep thought. A bubble appeared and put the knife into her spatial storage. She then moved it to a machine in the factory and used her special ability to wed the knife into the gap of the machine. She turned her back to measure the size, but she didn't align it at first and pricked her hand. Her eyes welled up with tears.

"It's okay, it's okay..."

She comforted herself.

It's no big deal. If you don't find a way to escape, those humans will beat you to death, crush your umbrella, and tear your pole apart. It will hurt more than being cut by a knife.

Having learned a painful lesson, Meng Xiaoyou comforted herself while cautiously trying to smooth things over.

With a loosening of her wrist, the rough rope fell to her feet, and Meng Xiaoyou regained her freedom.

Fortunately, everyone was too busy to pay attention to her at this time. Liang Mengjiao had been with her boyfriend in the apocalypse, and everyone gave in to her because of her appearance, which made her used to being pampered and her superpowers were slightly weaker.

Besides the initial zombies, more came to join the fun after hearing the commotion. Liang Mengjiao was the first to run out of energy and almost had her face scratched by a zombie. Lü Qiang reacted quickly and used his earth magic to cover her window with a layer of earth.

Liang Mengjiao turned pale: "Brother Qiang!!"

Suddenly, the glass window that Lü Qiang was guarding shattered, and a zombie slashed his arm. The bright red blood made the zombie even more agitated, and it climbed in through the window to begin its hunt.

"Brother Qiang!" Liang Mengjiao wanted to step forward, but stopped when her gaze fell on his wound, covering her mouth, "You..."

"Sister-in-law, don't just stand there, let's deal with it first!"

Before Hou San could finish speaking, he was pinned to the ground by a zombie. He braced himself against the zombie with his arms and anxiously shouted to Liang Mengjiao, "Sister-in-law, help me!"

Liang Mengjiao stood there bewildered, unsure how to react. She finally glanced at the noisy factory, where more and more zombies were crawling in, and many people were being bitten.

No, she couldn't die here.

Liang Mengjiao gritted her teeth, and suddenly saw Meng Xiaoyou sneaking towards the window. On a whim, she ignored Lü Qiang and Hou San's shouts and followed her.

Meng Xiaoyou spotted a window where there were far fewer zombies. She covered the zombies climbing the window with bubbles and listened to what they were saying in her mind.

Who is this and where am I?

It's so crowded! Don't push me, let me in.

"I smell awful! Why do I smell so bad?"

The zombies would stop moving when they came into contact with Meng Xiaoyou's awakened supernatural thoughts. Meng Xiaoyou seized the opportunity, disregarding their dirtiness, and pushed the zombies aside.

"Give way!"

【Okay!】

The zombies were still a bit confused, and they politely made way for her. After they came to their senses, they realized, "Wait a minute, the food just slipped away like that?"

Just then, another woman rushed over, using all her supernatural abilities to blast away several zombies, creating a wave of heat.

Meng Xiaoyou struggled to climb onto the window, but when she looked down, she realized that her landing point was a bit high, and there were two zombies staring at her with deathly eyes.

Before she could activate her powers, she was suddenly pushed from behind and lunged directly at the two zombies.

Everything happened too fast, so fast that Meng Xiaoyou didn't have time to use her superpowers and was about to crash into a zombie in the blink of an eye.

The zombies that haven't been attacked by the bubbles are mindless creatures; they only know how to eat. If one of them were to run into the bubble, it would be torn to shreds.

The pain of having one's brain eaten by a zombie surged forth instantly.

Meng Xiaoyou's face turned deathly pale, and she collapsed to the ground.

However, just as her body was about to touch the zombies, the two zombies dodged away as if avoiding a plague, one on the left and one on the right.

Meng Xiaoyou's small body fell to the ground with a thud.

Her chest was almost flattened from the fall, and the pain made her see stars. She groaned and clutched her chest as she got up, just in time to see the two zombies, Crouching Dragon and Phoenix Chick, give her a horrified look before chasing after the woman in red.

That push must have been made by Liang Mengjiao.

But what's wrong with these two zombies?

Is she something dirty?

Meng Xiaoyou got up from the ground, covered in dust and dirt. Looking down, she was shocked to see how dirty it really was.

His clothes were covered in dirt and oil from the trunk. His soft hair, which hung down in front of his shoulders, was frizzy and crackled with static electricity.

She puffed out her cheeks.

Well, that bad senior Liang Mengjiao is definitely cleaner than her.

"If you eat her, then don't eat me." Meng Xiaoyou muttered mischievously, getting up from the ground and dusting herself off.

Just then, the familiar beeping sound grew closer, and a limping zombie with a dark face stared at her with resentful, dead eyes.

【Hungry!!!】

An overwhelming sense of resentment and bitterness exploded in Meng Xiaoyou's mind, demonstrating just how deep the lame zombie's resentment was.

It walked up to Meng Xiaoyou, tilted its head back, and stretched out its zombie claws: "Roar~"

[Food! Those despicable humans! They tricked me into providing them with three meals a day, and then dared to run away behind my back! I've found them today!]

Meng Xiaoyou sniffed: "Where am I running away? I've been kidnapped! I'm just sending you a signal to get you out of here so I can treat you to a big meal. But isn't this a bit too much? I didn't expect you to have so many zombies with you! Impressive!"

Zombie: "Roar?"

[What zombies? I didn't bring that many. I just used the fishy smell to lure a few in, and the rest appeared on their own.]

The lame zombie waved its hand, holding a piece of rotten fish that it had somehow pulled out, and stared at Meng Xiaoyou with its dead fish eyes.

Meng Xiaoyou: "Huh?"

The mushroom and the zombie looked at each other with envy, but where did all those zombies come from?
