83: Chapter 83 The Prayer of Angry
A sharp female voice suddenly came from behind!
Immediately after, a pure white figure rudely and violently knocked aside Xu Yongning, who was blocking the outer perimeter.
Then, they gave Lu Jinwen, who was about to step over the supermarket threshold, a hard shove!
Lu Jinwen clearly hadn't expected this and was caught off guard.
She lost her balance and fell toward the side outside the door where a large number of zombies were gathered.
It looked as if she would fall into the group of clawing and baring-fanged zombies in the next instant.
"Jinwen!" Lu Yanxiu tried to lunge toward her, but it was already too late.
Qi Yin's eyes nearly split from rage; this scene overlapped with her past life, where she had been pushed into a horde of zombies by her own family.
In a flash, Qi Yin's gaze turned cold. With a flick of her wrist, a Black Metal Whip over five meters long appeared out of thin air like a venomous snake!
The whip accurately coiled around Lu Jinwen's waist. Qi Yin breathed a sigh of relief and pulled her back with a sudden burst of strength.
Lu Jinwen stood frozen in place, her soul still shaken and her face deathly pale.
Just a little bit more, just a tiny bit, and she would have become zombie food.
She had barely escaped danger, but the zombies had already noticed the commotion.
One by one, they bared their teeth, black drool leaking from their mouths as they lunged toward them.
The distance was only three meters!
Meanwhile, the person who had bumped into her and the five people following behind had already taken the opportunity to rush into the supermarket first, quickly occupying a relatively safer and more advantageous position.
Faster than words could say, Qi Yin threw an unidentified object. "Yan Xiu, your turn!"
Lu Yanxiu saw it clearly; it was a bomb.
"Got it!"
Spotting the exact moment the bomb entered the zombie horde, Lu Yanxiu fired a fireball, instantly detonating it.
By then, the others had already seized the opportunity to enter the supermarket.
Qi Yin repeated her previous trick, hooking his waist with her whip and pulling him directly into the supermarket.
Wen Yang and Chen Quan immediately closed the door.
*Bang!*
A massive explosion not only blew the small group of zombies outside to pieces but also made the supermarket shake violently.
However, an even greater crisis erupted because of this action.
The sound of the explosion attracted even more zombies, which came swarming toward their location in dense numbers.
Lu Jinwen finally came to her senses. Using her Supernatural Ability along with Chen Quan and Wen Yang, she scavenged large metal equipment and blocked the entrance completely to prevent the zombies from entering.
Three minutes later, the supermarket's glass doors were tightly blocked; the zombies had no way of getting in.
"Done!" Lu Jinwen clapped her hands with a smile.
Qi Yin squeezed her fingers, her eyes filled with guilt, but even more so with an unprecedented rage.
Because keeping her Spiritual power ability active constantly was too draining, she didn't use it unless necessary.
She hadn't expected that due to her negligence in failing to notice these people, Wenwen would almost lose her life.
Lu Jinwen quickly rubbed her face. "What are you talking about? You weren't the one who pushed me, so why are you feeling guilty?"
If anyone was to blame, it was that shameless woman from just now.
Now, they also saw the culprit behind everything.
It was a woman who looked to be in her early twenties, her hair dyed an exaggerated pink.
She looked a bit wilted from the cold, yet her face bore an arrogant expression of having nothing to fear.
Behind her were five people, all dressed differently in mismatched clothes that made them look bloated.
These people all had sharp, capable looks in their eyes; to dare venture into this Dead City, they must all be Ability Users.
At this moment, Muscle Man looked at the woman who had pushed Lu Jinwen with a face full of dissatisfaction: "Xiao Ya, what are you doing?"
The woman called Xiao Ya snorted, brushed the snow off herself, and squinted at Lu Jinwen and the beautiful girl beside her.
Why? She was so disheveled, yet these two women were wearing so little and didn't even seem cold.
They must be relying on the men behind them.
"What am I doing? Taking this spot, of course. We saw this supermarket first. Who told them to dawdle and block the way? It's their own fault if they fall and die."
Her tone was completely matter-of-fact, as if nearly killing someone was a trivial matter to her.
Muscle Man glanced guiltily at Qi Yin's group. Seeing that they were fine, the last bit of guilt in his heart quickly vanished.
He seemed accustomed to Xiao Ya's way of doing things, showing a hint of helplessness and indulgence.
The other four remained silent, but the message conveyed by their eyes was clear: they were on Xiao Ya's side.
After all, Xiao Ya was the only Water Element Ability user in the team.
Water sources were now heavily contaminated, and they didn't dare use the snowmelt outside; everyone had to rely on her to condense water.
Seeing that Qi Yin's group didn't speak, Xiao Ya's words became increasingly out of line.
"Two useless women, what's so great about relying on men to survive? Look, all those zombies outside were lured here by you."
Her voice wasn't quiet, making the zombies outside even more agitated.
Hearing this, Xu Yongning's veins bulged on his forehead in anger.
What did she mean by "relying on them"? Please, they were the ones living off others, okay?
He was about to rush over to argue but was held back by Qi Yin.
The woman continued to chatter, "I'm telling you, all the supplies in this supermarket belong to us. If you know what's good for you, get out now."
Then, she pointed at Lu Yanxiu behind Lu Jinwen, a hint of shyness appearing on her face, which was purple from the cold.
"He can stay."
Only Ability Users were worthy of joining her team.
Besides, in such cold weather, this handsome guy's Fire-type Ability could also start a fire to keep her warm.
Lu Yanxiu looked around before confirming the woman was talking about him.
"Pah! Go eat shit, you toad!"
The others looked closely—hey, don't say, she really did look like one.
Xiao Ya had always been pampered by her teammates; she had never endured being mocked like this.
"You... since you're unwilling, then get out with them!"
The five people beside her stepped forward, their eyes filled with contempt.
Muscle Man chimed in with a muffled voice, "Did you hear that? Everything here belongs to us. Get lost."
There were still quite a few instant foods left on the shelves, and they were waiting for these people to leave so they could start cooking.
Qi Yin's eyes were icy. She took a step forward, her gaze bypassing Muscle Man and landing directly on Xiao Ya.
"I'll settle my own grudges. You guys just watch."
Her negligence had almost caused an unforgivable consequence; this woman had to die.
The other group was clearly taken aback, then reacted as if they had heard a joke.
Xiao Ya was even more arrogant. "Little brat, you've got quite a big mouth. You want to take on six people by yourself?"
Lu Yanxiu and the others had already found a comfortable spot to sit down and handed an apple to the startled Lu Jinwen.
"Want to bet? How many minutes?"
Lu Jinwen took a huge bite. "I guess... *munch munch*... two minutes... *munch munch*."
Xiao Ya's mouth was like a machine gun, rattling away.
"Who do you think you are? Get out now, or don't blame us for being rude."
Qi Yin didn't waste any more words. Her figure moved abruptly, so fast she left only an afterimage, her target aimed straight at Xiao Ya.
The Glasses-wearing Man among the Ability Users reacted the fastest. With a wave of his hands, a half-person-high Earth Wall instantly blocked the way in front of Xiao Ya.
"Protect Xiao Ya!"
