101: Chapter 101 Want to Fight?

Lu Chengyue held Xu Wanning tightly, without trying to persuade her.

Half an hour later, Xu Wanning wiped away her tears. "Alright, what's done is done. We must continue to live well, carrying their share of life with us."

She glanced at the few who had turned into zombies. "Kill them, keep their bodies intact, and then burn them."

She couldn't bear to see her grandparents decapitated; it felt different from chopping down other zombies.

"Alright." Lu Chengyue led people to drag away those who had turned into zombies. These were their family members, so they couldn't bring themselves to do it; they had to let outsiders like them handle it.

"D-daughter, Dad seems to have awakened a Supernatural ability." Xu Jingan said with red eyes, opening his palm to reveal a small, emerald-green sprout emerging from it.

"Wood Ability." Xu Wanning handed him some crystal nuclei of various levels to help him level up; it wouldn't take long before he reached A-rank.

"Has anyone else awakened a Supernatural ability?"

"I, I awakened one." Shen Yirou raised her hand. "Water Ability."

"Dad, do you plan to go out and kill zombies with us, or stay at home?" Ability Users were required to work; that was the rule. If they didn't go out, they had to work within the base.

Xu Jingan thought for a moment. "I'll stay at the base, with your mom."

"I'll stay at the base too." Shen Yirou also chose to stay.

"Alright, I'll submit your names in a while. You can go straight to work at the Resource Department."

Wood Ability and Water-Type Ability Users were all assigned to the Resource Department to ensure the people had food to eat.

After a while, Jiang Yishen and the others, who had gone to handle the zombies, returned. "Let's go out and see them off together."

The bodies were laid out in the courtyard, as was the case for every household. The Fire Ability Users lit the fires, and flames soared into the sky.

The temperature had completely dropped and was currently holding at 25 degrees.

Wen Shuyang hugged Wu Suyun, crying until she couldn't catch her breath. She had never imagined that her father would leave her in such a way. They had clearly survived for two years already; why, why did it have to be like this?

Xu Wanning watched her grandparents, struggling to control her tears. "Grandpa, Grandma, we will definitely carry your share with us and live on well. We will definitely wait until The Apocalypse ends, and wait until you are reincarnated."

Lu Chengyue put his arm around her, watching as the flames engulfed the bodies until they disappeared.

Ding-dong.

Xu Wanning's phone rang. It was a group message from The Great Leader: [According to the latest statistics, only 150 million survivors remain. This time, more than half of the population has mutated!]

150 million people. Hahaha, how ironic. Even though I came back early, I still couldn't change the ending?

Lu Chengyue also saw the message. "Ningning, this isn't your fault. If it weren't for you, even more people would have mutated. Just like the previous life you described, everyone would have been wiped out. At least, at least this time, we still have 150 million people left."

[Zombie Cleanup Mission now released!] The message popped up again, and task after task began scrolling across the mission screen.

Xu Wanning accepted the missions for the hospital and the shopping mall; they had been there before and were relatively familiar with the area.

"Let's go!" The last flicker of fire extinguished, and Xu Wanning led her team out.

The zombies near the base entrance had already been isolated. The Metal-element ability users had built metal walls, leaving enough lanes for vehicles to pass through.

Zombies on both sides continuously attacked the walls, which were at risk of collapsing at any moment.

The vehicles passed through smoothly, and upon arriving at the hospital, they stood directly on the vehicles and fired down at the zombies below.

They were using firearms and ammunition made by the Metal-element ability users, which could pierce straight through the zombies. There was no need to worry about running out of ammunition; as long as the Metal-element ability users were still there, the ammunition would be endless.

Zhou Ke, Xu Jingping, and Jiang Yishen did not participate in the fighting; the three of them kept manufacturing bullets in the vehicle and distributing them to everyone.

The effect was excellent; as long as their Supernatural ability wasn't exhausted, the supply of bullets could be guaranteed.

Once their Supernatural ability was exhausted, there probably wouldn't be that many zombies left, and the others could then use their own Supernatural ability or metal weapons to harvest the zombies' lives.

One by one, zombies fell, and crystal nuclei were recovered. Everyone knew the importance of the crystal nuclei, so they didn't let a single zombie go.

There were about 3,000 zombies near the hospital and the shopping mall. After attacking for a while, perhaps because this area was spacious, the zombies in front of the nearby business building actually started moving toward them.

Since the zombies were coming, they couldn't just watch, so they continued to attack.

"Hey, aren't you guys going too far? These zombies belong to us; you've crossed the line." A man carrying a golden blade shouted toward them, pointing his golden blade at them.

Xu Yu rolled his eyes. "The zombies came over on their own, what does that have to do with us? Besides, we're clearing the zombies, which actually lightens your burden."

The man with the golden blade glared at him. "Bullshit! Everyone knows crystal nuclei are good things. For every zombie you kill, we get one less crystal nucleus. You guys sure have it all figured out."

Xu Wanning couldn't be bothered to argue with them. "Since you think we're taking advantage of you, then go ahead and kill them yourselves."

"The zombies in our assigned area have already been wiped out. The zombies you're responsible for ran over here. When the inspectors come later, they might say we didn't clean them up properly."

"Will you take responsibility for that? Will you provide proof for us?"

The middle-aged man behind the man with the golden blade roared unhappily, "Why should we provide proof for you? The zombies went over on their own; it's not like we pushed them over there."

"So you want all the benefits—we kill the zombies, and you take the crystal nuclei?" Zhou Ke raised the sword in his hand and pointed it at them. "You aren't worthy of taking advantage of us."

The people behind the man with the golden blade all took two steps forward. "Not convinced? Want to fight?"

They had a lot of people, almost 50. If it weren't for the 50-person limit on squads, there would probably be even more.

"Let's fight then, who's afraid of you!" Xu Yu, Jiang Heng, and the others also surged forward. At this moment, no one was thinking about using their Supernatural ability or weapons; they all intended to use their fists.

"Stop!" Xu Wanning shouted into a megaphone. "A-Yue, use your ability to blow the zombies back to them. Uncle Lu, build two walls on the sides of our cleanup area!"

Just separating them would solve everything. Their enemies were the zombies, not humans. There was no need to fight until both sides were injured; there were already so few humans left. If they killed each other, it would only make the zombies laugh at them.

Lu Chengyue released a gust of wind, sweeping all the incoming zombies back. Lu Mingyuan took the opportunity to build the walls.

This was actually quite good. Next time zombies appeared, the likelihood of the walls being damaged would be very low. Being responsible for their own areas would also avoid quite a few disputes.

Xu Wanning stared at them to see if they would let it go. If they kept on and on, she wouldn't need to worry about the "human" aspect anymore; she'd just beat them up first.

The zombies were blown back, and the man with the golden blade's side didn't say anything more, silently continuing to kill zombies. They all stood on either side of the wall; they didn't dare to go down and kill the zombies yet, as they were afraid of dying.

Level 5 zombies had extremely strong mobility; if the walls hadn't been built high, they would have climbed up long ago.

The driver who had driven them over checked, and after confirming they had finished the cleanup, stamped their receipt, and the group returned.
