Before Hua Mi had the chance to be shocked, she saw herself landing outside the debris ruins, holding a two-meter-long sword in her hand, blocking the way of a humanoid creature with a tail, running naked forward, and splitting it in half with a swift strike.
The humanoid creature, undeterred, charged at Hua Mi only to be cleaved in two.
Before the corpse of the humanoid had even hit the ground, Hua Mi had leapt back several meters to avoid the creature's blood from splattering on her.
By then, Lin Zhigang had already managed to break free of the ropes that were binding him.
He hurriedly removed the rag stuffed in his mouth, stumbled out of the ruins, and stood before the humanoid that had been severed in two.
Lin Zhigang looked at the humanoid's form, his face pale with horror, and asked Hua Mi,
"What is this thing?"
Hua Mi shook her head, she had never seen such a thing in her past life.
It was a very normal occurrence; the DNA of Mutant Beasts was highly unstable.
They could merge with any species and give birth to a new species.
And within each new species, different mutations could arise.
Hua Mi immediately ordered Lin Zhigang,
"Launch the drone to look around and see if there are any more creatures ."
Mutant Beasts typically did not appear alone unless it was a newly mutated variant.
Once a new variant was able to survive in the apocalypse, they would reproduce rapidly, creating a vast group in a very short period.
And this type of Mutant Beast with a tail was said to have appeared near the E City Base long ago.
If this was the case, then there must be a large group of Mutant Beasts nearby, ready to burst through the vacuum zone and enter the Zombie Tide at any moment.
Lin Zhigang hurried to find his drone while the others, including Captain Zhao who were inside the ruins, struggled and howled in pain, helping each other to stand.
Before they could say anything, Gong Yi opened the door of the RV, stood at the entrance with a sharp gaze, and said,
"A group of people is coming from the direction of E City."
He saw them using his spiritual power; Gong Yi's spiritual power could now see up to a kilometer away.
Hua Mi turned to ask Gong Yi, "Humans or monsters?"
Gong Yi replied with certainty, "Humans, a large group of them."
And the woman leading them over was none other than Qu Yimin, the one Hua Mi had been helping with bread for the past few days.
Hearing Gong Yi's words, Hua Mi immediately turned and instructed him,
"Set up a barrier around the RV, and don't let anyone get close to our RV."
Hua Mi wasn't too worried about other matters; after all, both she and Gong Yi were strong fighters capable of handling Zombies and Mutant Monsters with ease.
The most difficult part was that they had brought their child with them this time.
They needed to protect their child well.
As parents, they could train their child, but they absolutely could not allow their child to suffer any harm.
In the apocalypse, even a small scratch could prove fatal.
Gong Yi nodded, and a transparent barrier silently wrapped around the exterior of the RV.
Qu Yimin, with the Qu Family, soon appeared on the battered street.
She followed Hua Mi's RV, asking for two slices of bread every day.
After solving the problem of food and warmth, Qu Yimin leisurely began to search the surrounding area for resources.
She quickly found a power bank, charged her battered phone, and contacted the people of the Qu Family.
It was also Qu Yimin who told the Qu Family about the vacuum zone and that she met a man named Doctor Lin.
This man had come from the Xiang City Base and was one of Chi Chuan's subordinates.
The Qu Family, who were en route to the Xiang City Base, immediately changed their plans and decided to head to the vacuum zone as Qu Yimin had informed them.
Nowadays, having a connection with someone from inside the Xiang City Base was an opportunity no one could afford to miss.
Everyone recognized the value of Lin Zhigang.
In front of the RV, Hua Mi stood holding her long sword, her eyebrows cold as she gazed at the throng of the Qu Family making their way toward her.
She then looked at the woman who asked her for two slices of bread every day. Hua Mi closely observed her until, from the woman's now fading scars on her face, she recognized a familiar visage.
Wasn't this woman Qu Yimin? Damn! Since when did Qu Yimin end up ?
