System Glitch! I Accidentally Saved The Zombie Emperor
Chapter 28: Escaping From Ji CityStanding beside Liu Yun, surprise flashed across Ye Xuan’s eyes when he witnessed the scene before him.
Every mutant rat that rushed toward them exploded into a cloud of blood mist the moment it came into contact with the invisible barrier.
Looking down at Liu Yun, who was still protected in his arms, a thought crossed his mind.
’Is this her doing? But... how? Also, if she truly controlled this power, why did she look even more frightened than everyone else?’
While he was deep in thought, Gu Zhenwei and the others finally came back to their senses.
"Heavens! What kind of sorcery is this?! How are those mutant rats exploding the moment they rush over?!" Gu Zhenwei exclaimed in disbelief.
At the same time, Qiu Sixun turned to Liu Yun and probed, "Younger Sister Liu, are you an ability user?"
The question made Liu Yun’s heart skip a beat.
Her fingers tightened around her wooden stick, but she kept her expression calm. Behind her composed face, however, cold sweat had already soaked her back.
Standing so close to her, Ye Xuan could clearly feel the tension in her body the moment Qiu Sixun asked the question.
At that moment, Liu Yun was screaming inwardly. ’What should I do?! What should I do?! What should I do?!’
Two seconds later, an idea suddenly flashed through her mind.
Her eyes lit up as she thought, ’Wait! If I admit that I have a spatial ability, I can openly take out items I buy from the System Mall in the future. Also, although spatial ability is rare, it exists. This is actually a great idea!’
Having made up her mind, Liu Yun looked at Qiu Sixun and replied, "Yes. I have a spatial ability. However, I can only use it as portable storage, and the storage space is quite small."
She paused for a few seconds, then added, "As for this... I also don’t know what is happening now."
Hearing this, not only Qiu Sixun but everyone else was surprised as well.
Lan Zuancheng’s eyes lit up as he said, "Younger Sister Liu, you are really lucky to be able to awaken the spatial element ability!"
Seeing that they believed her, Liu Yun secretly let out a sigh of relief.
While the others were talking with Liu Yun, Ye Xuan continued watching her, observing even the slightest change in her expression.
Sensing his sharp gaze, Liu Yun looked up, only to find Ye Xuan staring directly at her. She swallowed hard before asking carefully, "Is—Is there something on my face?"
Ye Xuan remained silent for a few seconds before shifting his gaze toward the mutant rats.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
As explosions echoed throughout the area, zombies from the surrounding streets began moving toward their location.
"Roar!"
Hearing the zombie roar drawing closer with every passing second, Ye Xuan’s expression darkened. His arm around Liu Yun’s waist tightened slightly.
"The zombies are coming. We can’t stay here any longer. While this strange barrier is still protecting us, we have to leave Ji City as soon as possible."
Hearing this, Gu Zhenwei, Lan Zuancheng, and Qiu Sixun nodded in agreement.
Turning to look at Liu Yun, Ye Xuan asked, "Have you recovered your stamina? Can you run?"
Liu Yun clenched her jaw and nodded firmly. Whether she could run or not, she had to run. Otherwise, she would end up as a snack for the mutant rats.
Receiving her answer, Ye Xuan turned to Lan Zuancheng. "Zuancheng, lead the way."
Lan Zuancheng studied the map in his hand for a moment before saying, "Everyone, stay close to me. We will head east in three... two... Run!"
The moment the words left his mouth, the five of them dashed toward the east. Wherever they passed, mutant rats exploded into clouds of blood mist.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Surrounding them, explosions continued to echo across Ji City as countless mutant rats vanished into clouds of blood. Without looking back, the five of them ran for their life.
After running for almost an hour, Lan Zuancheng suddenly pointed toward the intersection ahead and said, "That’s the city border! Once we pass that intersection, we will be out of Ji City!"
At his words, everyone’s eyes lit up. As long as they could leave Ji City, their chances of survival would increase greatly.
Determination burned in their eyes, and the four of them increased their speed.
Behind them, Liu Yun was panting like an old dog. With every breath she took, it felt as though her lungs were about to explode, and her body grew heavier with each passing second.
Noticing that she had slowed down, Ye Xuan tightened his fingers around her wrist and pulled her along as he ran. Unfortunately, although he had survived the zombification process, the wound on his stomach had yet to heal.
With Liu Yun slowing him down, Ye Xuan had no choice but to exert even more strength while escaping, causing the wound to tear open once again.
Warm blood slowly seeped through the bandages beneath his clothes, and fresh blood stained his shirt.
Enduring the pain, Ye Xuan glanced back and saw that the mutant rats had disappeared, leaving only the zombies chasing after them. However, because of the smell of blood from his body, the zombies became more energetic.
"Roar!"
As they drew closer to the city border, the number of zombies gradually decreased.
Realizing this, Ye Xuan carefully scanned the surroundings. However, aside from the zombies chasing them, he found nothing unusual.
A few moments later, they finally crossed the city border, leaving Ji City behind.
The second they crossed the city border, the zombies suddenly stopped on their tracks and began to wander around aimlessly.
While they were still running for their lives, a familiar System notification suddenly rang out in Liu Yun’s mind.
Ding!
[The World Restoration System has been successfully upgraded.]
The moment Liu Yun heard the notification, her eyes lit up. ’System! You are finally back online!’
A second later, the System’s mechanical voice replied, [Player, thank you for your patience. You may now access the newly unlocked "Farming" feature from the System’s main interface.]
Hearing this, Liu Yun couldn’t help complaining inwardly. ’System, can’t you see my current situation? Do you think I have time to check out the new features now?’
The System remained silent for two seconds before asking, [Player, are you poking a zombie nest?]
