System Glitch! I Accidentally Saved The Zombie Emperor
Chapter 26: A Bad PremonitionWhen Lan Zuancheng asked, Liu Yun came out of her thoughts and replied, "Elder Brother Lan, I passed through those locations last night and didn’t find any zombies."
When Lan Zuancheng, Gu Zhenwei, and Qiu Sixun heard this, they were all surprised. It wasn’t because there were no zombies in those places, but because Liu Yun dared to travel at night.
At that moment, Liu Yun felt Ye Xuan’s gaze grow colder than before. Under his sharp gaze, she couldn’t help but tremble. However, she had no choice but to do her best to maintain a calm expression.
Coming back to his senses, Gu Zhenwei shook his head and said, "Impossible. Yesterday, when Ye Jin’s bodyguards scouted the city center, they clearly saw a large number of zombies gathered in those locations."
Seeing the doubt on Gu Zhenwei’s face, Liu Yun decided to remain silent. There was no way she would tell them that she had wiped out those zombies herself.
What if they thought she was powerful and asked her to escort them out of Ji City?
Shaking her head inwardly, Liu Yun thought, ’No, no, no. Once the Beginner Protection Shield disappears, I’m just an ordinary human. There’s no way I can become their bodyguard and escort them out of the city.’
While Liu Yun was lost in thought, Ye Xuan suddenly spoke.
His gaze lingered on Liu Yun for a moment before saying, "Since Younger Sister Liu says there are no zombies in those locations, we should verify the situation. If what she says is true, it would save us a lot of trouble."
Qiu Sixun nodded in agreement.
"Brother Xuan is right. Rather than fighting zombies while escaping, it’s better to spend some time scouting those locations first. If there really are no zombies there, not only will we save time and energy, but it will also be much safer."
Hearing this, Gu Zhenwei and Lan Zuancheng said in unison, "I agree."
Staring at Liu Yun, Ye Xuan asked, "Younger Sister Liu, what do you think of this plan?"
Since Liu Yun knew there were no zombies in those locations, she agreed without hesitation. "I will follow your lead."
After reaching an agreement, Ye Xuan said, "Very well. Since everyone agrees, we will leave after packing our belongings. The sooner we leave Ji City, the higher our chances of survival."
The others nodded and responded in unison, "Understood."
With that, Gu Zhenwei quickly helped Ye Xuan pack his belongings while Lan Zuancheng and Qiu Sixun helped him to his feet.
As for Liu Yun, she had nothing except her wooden stick.
Two minutes later, the five of them exchanged nods before stepping out of the abandoned office building.
Looking up at the gloomy sky, Liu Yun tightened her grip on the wooden stick. In the distance, zombie roars echoed one after another, sending chills down her spine.
For some reason, she couldn’t shake the bad feeling that something would go wrong today.
Supported by Qiu Sixun, Ye Xuan’s expression remained indifferent, as if those terrifying sounds meant nothing to him.
After a brief moment of observation, Ye Xuan said, "Let’s go."
With that, Lan Zuancheng led the team while checking the map from time to time.
As the only woman in the group, Liu Yun was positioned in the middle of the formation while Gu Zhenwei covered the rear.
Holding her wooden stick tightly, Liu Yun silently prayed, ’Please, don’t let any zombies come any closer. My Beginner Protection Shield is still active. If these men see the zombies turn into blood mist, then my secret will be exposed!’
As they made their way forward, Liu Yun took the opportunity to observe her surroundings. Last night, she had been too busy chasing zombies to take a proper look at Ji City.
Beneath the gloomy sky, zombie roars echoed from time to time, constantly reminding her that the city was far from as peaceful as it appeared.
Under her feet, the ground was littered with bluish-black fragments. Without even thinking, Liu Yun could guess what they were.
Instantly, nausea washed over her. Her stomach churned, and she nearly threw up the compressed biscuits she had just eaten.
Liu Yun swallowed hard and took a deep breath, hoping to settle her stomach. However, instead of feeling better, the nauseating stench in the air only grew stronger. She frowned as the foul odor of decay, blood, and dust filled her nose.
’Ugh! This rotten smell mixed with blood and dust is really unbearable.’
Walking ahead of her, Ye Xuan, who was supported by Qiu Sixun, never took his eyes off Liu Yun. He noticed that she had nearly vomited and had been frowning ever since.
Unaware that Ye Xuan was observing her, Liu Yun calculated the remaining time.
’There is still more than an hour before my Beginner Protection Shield disappears. I wonder if we can leave the city center before then.’
Under Lan Zuancheng’s guidance, the group smoothly bypassed the zombies along the way.
Half an hour later, Lan Zuancheng suddenly stopped. Turning to the others, he let out a sigh of relief and said, "Everyone, we have already left the city center."
Hearing this, Gu Zhenwei turned to Liu Yun with a smile. "Younger Sister, thanks to your information, we managed to leave the city center without any problems."
Liu Yun smiled slightly before shaking her head. "I only told you what I saw. It was nothing, really."
While the two of them were talking, Qiu Sixun carefully observed their surroundings. A few moments later, he frowned slightly.
Raising his hand, he said in a low voice, "Wait. Something isn’t right."
The moment those words left his mouth, Liu Yun and Gu Zhenwei immediately fell silent. The five of them quickly formed a circle and scanned their surroundings vigilantly.
After a brief moment, Gu Zhenwei whispered, "Brother Sixun, did you find something?"
Qiu Sixun remained silent for a few seconds before asking, "Don’t you think it’s too quiet?"
As soon as he said that, everyone realized that the constant zombie roars had disappeared without them noticing.
At this moment, the sudden silence felt far more terrifying than the endless zombie roars. It felt like something dangerous was waiting for them to make a mistake.
