80: Get off me immediately

Qin Shilei first refreshed the White Rainbow Pierces the Sun with new entries.

Splash (Green): Deals splash damage to two enemies around the target, with attack power one-third of the combat skill.

Haste (Green): When this combat skill is cast, movement speed and attack speed are increased by one-third.

Sun Chaser (Red): Once this combat skill is cast, an upward lifting force will be generated, causing one to shoot into the sky. (Since it is to pierce the sun, of course, one must fly, the height is unknown, it only ascends, not descends.)

White Rainbow Pierces the Sun is a red combat skill, so logically, only red or higher entries should match it.

But this Sun Chaser looks very unreliable no matter how you look at it.

If he could control this upward lifting force, it would be a very good entry.

Whether using it to escape or attack enemies at high places, it is a very good idea.

Left with no choice, Qin Shilei chose the Haste entry.

After adding the entry, Qin Shilei handed this red combat skill to An Qian.

"For me?" An Qian's face showed a hint of joy, then she thought about it and handed the combat skill back to Qin Shilei, "This gift is too precious, I don't want it."

Qin Shilei stopped her outstretched hand, "This is what you deserve. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have been able to kill that Great Peng Bird, let alone get such good spoils."

"Alright then, since you're willing to give it, I'll really learn it." An Qian happily learned the combat skill.

After learning it, she couldn't wait to try it out on the street.

Qin Shilei continued to take out the Horn of Bloodlust.

["Do you want to refresh the entries?"]

["Refresh."]

Ghostly Howl (Blue): The sound of the horn becomes very sharp and unpleasant, causing certain damage to enemies.

Deterrence (Green): When the horn is blown, it can not only enhance the combat power of comrades but also cause enemies within a ten-meter radius to suffer the negative effect of Deterrence. Once an enemy is deterred, they will enter an immobile state for 0.1 to 1 second.

Range Doubled (Green): The range affected by the horn increases to 20 meters.

Qin Shilei chose the Deterrence entry for the horn.

The crucial moment arrived.

["Do you want to refresh the entries for Phantom?"]

["Refresh."]

Lifelike (Green): The formed phantom is exactly the same as the main body.

Time Doubled (Green): The existence time of the phantom is doubled.

Quick Recovery (Red): The cooldown time of the phantom is reduced to twelve hours.

The greater the hope, the greater the disappointment.

Even the best Quick Recovery wasn't much better than Time Doubled.

Because Phantom is a skill, once learned, the attached entries cannot be changed, so Qin Shilei had to temporarily put it away.

He also put away the ability bead and crystals from the Great Peng Bird's body.

The next day, Qin Shilei and his group made a turn and returned to the main road leading to Tongquan City.

The armored vehicle had been found, and the hole in the roof was roughly patched with some sheet metal.

Zhang Qiang was still driving the vehicle forward.

Suddenly, Zhang Qiang slammed on the brakes, bringing the vehicle to a halt.

Qin Shilei and the others looked through the glass window, only to find that the armored vehicle was stopped by several familiar faces.

There were a total of six people standing in the middle of the road.

Luo Hongyi and two soldiers, Professor Yu, Professor Liu, and the annoying Ma Yulian.

All six were covered in injuries and looked disheveled.

Professor Yu and Professor Liu both had broken left arms, and Luo Hongyi and the two soldiers had several bandages on their bodies and looked listless, presumably seriously injured.

Ma Yulian had a palm-length scratch on her left cheek, and her right foot was limping.

"It's you?" Luo Hongyi looked at Qin Shilei, who stepped out of the armored vehicle, with a surprised expression.

"Commander Luo, why have you stopped us?" Qin Shilei also felt very surprised.

He had clearly seen the Great Peng Bird destroy most of the civilian house they had drilled into, and he hadn't expected them to still be alive.

Luo Hongyi opened his mouth to explain, "I saw an armored vehicle driving over, and I thought it was friendly forces, so I stopped you."

"Oh." Qin Shilei responded faintly, "Commander Luo, then we'll be taking our leave now. We'll meet again."

The other party's face was filled with an expression that screamed, 'Come and help me,' and Qin Shilei also intended to show kindness to Professor Yu and the others.

But to make others remember your kindness, you can't offer help too easily, can you?

So, after Qin Shilei finished speaking, he turned to get into the car and leave.

"Mr. Qin." Commander Luo said with some hesitation, "Please, can you give us a ride? We'll leave as soon as we find a car."

All the cars they had encountered along the way were broken and couldn't start, so they had no choice but to ask for help.

"This..." Qin Shilei looked at the few people opposite him with some caution.

Luo Hongyi quickly raised his hand and promised, "I guarantee we have no ill intentions whatsoever."

Qin Shilei paused before speaking, "It's not impossible, but what's in it for me?"

"When our Research Institute develops mature zombie serum, we'll give you a few bottles." Ma Yulian immediately offered something that interested Qin Shilei.

"I don't trust your character." Qin Shilei glanced at Ma Yulian and turned to look at Professor Yu.

Professor Yu said readily, "If we really can develop a mature product, what's wrong with giving you a few bottles? This research was originally done for humanity."

"Alright then, get in the car."

Qin Shilei had An Qian's mother and Xie Haimei squeeze into the passenger seat, while he, An Qian, and Zhang Xiaoli, along with the six people from the other party, got into the back of the carriage.

The originally spacious carriage instantly became extremely cramped.

"Zhang Xiaoli, I'll trouble you to treat Professor Yu and Professor Liu." Qin Shilei subtly winked at Zhang Xiaoli.

Zhang Xiaoli quickly understood Qin Shilei's meaning.

After treating Professor Yu and Professor Liu, she pretended to have a terrible headache and leaned against An Qian, closing her eyes to rest.

"Thank you for your hard work, little girl." Professor Yu said gratefully.

"Thank you, Miss Zhang." Professor Liu also sincerely thanked her.

Although their left hands were still not strong, the pain had greatly subsided, and they were indeed grateful for Zhang Xiaoli's treatment.

Ma Yulian immediately became dissatisfied, "What about me? I'm injured too."

Qin Shilei turned to ask about Zhang Xiaoli with concern, completely ignoring the other party.

"How can you be like this? Without me, the zombie serum can't be developed. Shouldn't you also help me with my treatment?" Ma Yulian loudly clamored.

Qin Shilei glanced at Ma Yulian and said coldly, "What are you making such a fuss about? Can't you see Zhang Xiaoli is so tired she's about to faint?"

Ma Yulian pointed at Qin Shilei and shouted, "This is discriminatory! You clearly don't want to treat me."

She paused, then said fiercely, "You still want zombie serum? Dream on!"

"From now on, you won't get a single bit of anything from our Research Institute."

Qin Shilei looked at Ma Yulian with a cold expression.

"What are you looking at? Someone like you, with no sense of social responsibility, deserves to be bitten by zombies and turn into one too." Ma Yulian continued to curse.

"Zhang Qiang, stop the car."

Qin Shilei pointed at the car door and said coldly, "Get out of the car right now. You are not welcome here."
