After clearing the area, Lin Ye began to move toward the outskirts of the city. His goal was simple—find shelter, find allies, and keep surviving. The world outside was far more dangerous than he’d ever imagined, and though his power had grown significantly, he wasn’t naive enough to think that it would be enough.
Survival in this new world was about more than just power—it was about connections, alliances, and knowing when to fight and when to retreat.
As he moved through the city, he came across the remains of a military convoy. The vehicles were overturned, their tires popped, and their windows shattered. But it was the soldiers that caught his attention.
They were surrounded.
Lin Ye approached cautiously, staying out of sight as he observed the situation. The soldiers were pinned down, fighting a losing battle against a group of zombies. But there was one woman, standing apart from the chaos, who caught his eye.
She was a soldier—a military officer, to be exact. Lin Ye could see it in the way she moved, the confidence in her posture. Despite the bloodshed around her, she remained calm, cool, and deadly.
Her name was Qin Xue Ning.
Lin Ye watched her for a few moments before stepping into the fray. It was clear that she was a force to be reckoned with, and he wasn’t about to let such a strong potential ally slip away.
With a flash of movement, Lin Ye entered the battlefield, his machete flashing in the sunlight as he began to cut through the zombies. But he wasn’t alone.
Qin Xue Ning was by his side, her g*n firing with precision, cutting down the zombies with ruthless efficiency. Together, they formed a deadly pair, their combined strength clearing the battlefield in mere minutes.
