QT: Have Grievances? CAWHYC-Ch7

 

CHAPTER 7 - Take the Initiative


At this time, Lianyi had quickly thrown away the iron pipe in her hand, took off her coat, and frowned as she watched the corrosive power of the water ball weaken.

Yun Rou's abilities other than the space were not shown in the God's perspective. Her corrosive water is a deadly weapon. No wonder she can stir up trouble later. This should be her hidden skill.

She originally wanted to kill Yun Rou directly so as to complete at least half of the task, but in the end she let the other party escape. As expected, the third-level task was not so easy to complete. Lianyi mentally scolded the man in black suit who sent her here again.

Then she quickly took out a black coat from the space and put it on. She took the kitchen knife she had looted from the kitchen in 601 in her hand and chased after Yun Rou. She was only delayed for five or six minutes, but she did not see Yun Rou's figure at all.

When walking through the stairwell, she saw Ma Tao's body. She was not the original body so she just glanced at it indifferently, stepped over it, then quickly went downstairs.

It was two o'clock in the morning. She had spent a day and a night evolving her abilities. It was no longer wise for her to stay here. She was originally an office worker and ate her three meals outside every day so she only had some emergency snacks at home.

Although she had looted the unit next door, the items were only enough to sustain her for a month. As a taskmaster, she knew very well that the apocalypse would not end in a month.

Wu Lianyi chased all the way to the entrance of the building, but did not see Yun Rou's figure anywhere. She pushed the door open a crack, and noted that the number of zombies in the yard had increased significantly.

They were still wandering aimlessly, but some of the zombies that had eaten flesh and blood and had dried blood on the corners of their lips and chests we were obviously moving more smoothly. Although they were still slow, it was obvious that they were evolving.

Lianyi just glanced at it and quietly closed the door because some of the sensitive zombies had already started sniffing around, as if they smelled her scent.

After going through the nearby terrain in her mind, she knew that there was a large shopping mall one stop away from her location. There was a supermarket on the basement floor, and a complete range of food, clothing and daily necessities on the upper floor. It was now the third day of the apocalypse and it was the perfect time to stock up on goods while some people haven't reacted yet.

Wu Lianyi knew that she was now a taskmaster. She had to live on behalf of the original owner and fulfill her wish. She was no longer the great cultivator she once was and needed food, drinks and clothing.

Exhaling lightly, Lianyi tightened her backpack, gripped the kitchen knife in her hand, and put on a black mask of the same style. She then quietly pushed open the door of the apartment and rushed out in one stride.

Her appearance immediately attracted the zombies in the yard. They were like sharks smelling blood and immediately swarmed towards Lianyi.

Wu Lianyi dodged left and right, kicked away the two zombies closest to her, then took advantage of their slow movements to chop off the head of an evolved zombie. When she reached the gate, she lightly jumped over the 1.5-meter electric door. This was a benefit brought by evolution.

After landing on the other side, another group of zombies came towards her. She quickly rushed into the alley where she had hidden before, then began to swerve a few times, constantly increasing her speed, trying to get rid of the zombies behind her.

Wu Lianyi's series of operations were all seen by a pair of beautiful eyes peeking behind a window. The other person's eyes were full of hatred. If she hadn't been exhausted from using supernatural ability, she would've definitely taught the other person a lesson. This person was none other than Yun Rou.

At her feet were two half-corroded corpses of a father and son, the original owners of the house she's currently in.

After Yun Rou ran down the stairwell in a panic, due to the loud noise and her little white flower appearance, she was noticed by the middle-aged man who was squatting behind the peephole to check the situation. He immediately opened the door and invited Yun Rou hide in his house.

Yun Rou could see through the other party's ill intentions at a glance, but she could only choose to go in, otherwise she would be dead. Now she was thirsty and hungry. She had just used her supernatural ability in desperation and ran all the way from the sixth floor so she was somewhat exhausted.

"Girl, you weren't bitten!"

The man asked specifically.

"No, the person chasing me was my colleague. She blamed me for her fiancé's betrayal and wanted to kill me to vent her anger."

Yun Rou knew how to dispel the other party's concerns. While explaining in a low voice, she also turned around in front of the man, showing off her beautiful figure and proving that she had no wounds on her body.

"Hah! How did the world become like this? Girl, come in quickly!"

The middle-aged man was very satisfied with Yun Rou's youth and beauty, so he immediately dragged her into the room and quickly closed the door.

This is also the reason why Wu Lianyi failed to catch up with Yun Rou, because she never left the building at all.

After Yun Rou entered, she found a father and son in the room. The room was a bit messy, but after a quick look she found that there was food and drinks, so she felt relieved. She then pretended to be exhausted and fell on the sofa, asking for a glass of water from the other party.

The young man had already looked at Yun Rou from head to toe, his eyes becoming more and more lecherous. He even took the initiative to offer Yun Rou a piece of bread to fill her stomach.

When Yun Rou had eaten and drank enough and had some strength, the young man sat next to her and started to make advances on her. Yun Rou pretended to be frightened and asked the middle-aged man for help, but the man also came over.

Yun Rou's eyes darkened, and she raised her hand to condense a ball of water, then split it into two and hit the two men's faces simultaneously.

The two people were stunned by the water ball that appeared out of thin air at first, and then they were hit by the water ball. They did not have the reaction speed of Lianyi, and were hit in the face directly. Their eyes were corroded in an instant, and they fell to the ground, rolling over and screaming in pain. They tried to wipe off the water stains on their face s with their hands, but the moment their hands touched the water, they were also corroded.

Yun Rou watched the two people's wailing becoming quieter and quieter with an indifferent expression. Coincidentally, the movement in the yard alerted her, so she looked through the gap in the curtains in the living room on the second floor and saw Wu Lianyi breaking out.

Yun Rou closed the curtains again, then lowered her head and thought for a while. She decided to hide here first to see if Wu Lianyi would come back. She prayed that she would die outside! Then she began to study her new skills.

On the other side, Wu Lianyi was approaching the shopping mall as quickly as possible.

The shopping mall was built on the side of the expressway, so the flow of people was not that big. Moreover, when the apocalypse broke out, the shopping mall was already closed, so she shouldn't have to deal with many zombies. Of course, it was not ruled out that there were other people who had the same idea as her.

The short distance of 1000 meters usually took her up to twenty minutes to walk, but now she spent an hour, and from time to time she had to swing the kitchen knife to kill zombies. The black blood of the zombies inevitably splashed on her body making her look like a brutal murderer.

The foul smell of rotting corpses under her nose was getting stronger and stronger, which made Wu Lianyi frown a little. After chopping down a man who rushed towards her, she found that the zombies nearby began to rush toward her.
