Chapter 284: Chapter 284: Post-apocalyptic Light Queen VS Space Female Supporting Character (Part 28) Chapter 284: Chapter 284: Post-apocalyptic Light Queen VS Space Female Supporting Character (Part 28) 1. Throughout the night, fortunes and spirits flipped and tumbled.
Lei Ting was pleasantly surprised to find that during this time, Gu Shengyin had become particularly clingy, always wanting to stay close to him regardless of the situation.
He did not ponder deeply, merely thinking that the lady of his house had finally begun to depend on her man.
Gu Shengyin just wanted to cherish the last days she could spend in this world with her lover.
She prayed that the day would not come too soon.
But delaying was ultimately not a sustainable plan, half a year later–
“Originally, the zombie tide that was gathering to head towards the Antarctic suddenly halted. Those zombies, as if they encountered something infuriating, became agitated and no longer moved in the original direction but began to indiscriminately attack the major bases!”
The base’s researcher responsible for long-term monitoring of the zombies’ movements said in panic.
The researcher’s words made everyone’s expression grow solemn.
Gu Shengyin knew that the zombies had noticed that the thing which had been attracting them had disappeared.
Yet now, there was still no progress in the research on that coffin at the base.
Gu Shengyin knew that the time had come; delaying another day would only result in more harm caused by the zombies.
That day, she got up as usual, gave the man beside her a sweet kiss, and made him a delicious breakfast.
Lei Ting, unsuspecting, had breakfast and then went out to carry out tasks with the other Special Ability Users.
Gu Shengyin went straight to find Zhong Lingyu.
Zhong Lingyu was surprised upon hearing that she wanted that coffin, “Why do you need this thing? I have orders that it cannot be given to anyone.”
A flash of golden light passed through Gu Shengyin’s eyes, and Zhong Lingyu’s expression suddenly turned confused.
She dizzily followed Gu Shengyin outside.
The Great Brightness Curse certainly didn’t need it, but Gu Shengyin intended to eradicate the source of the infection altogether.
Gu Shengyin and Zhong Lingyu left the base smoothly and found a quiet, deserted place.
“Bring out the thing.”
Zhong Lingyu did as instructed.
Gu Shengyin looked at the body inside the coffin and, with a hint of reluctance, gazed toward the direction of the Imperial Capital Base, her expression becoming resolute.
She slowly bowed her head, her hands clasped in front of her chest, and a low chant emanated from her lips.
At the same moment, Zhong Lingyu’s gaze cleared.
She was puzzled for a few seconds before she could see clearly what was happening before her, and asked in confusion, “What are you doing?”
Of course, Gu Shengyin couldn’t respond to her then.
Zhong Lingyu, feeling inexplicably uneasy, tried to step forward but found that a faint golden halo had formed ten meters around Gu Shengyin, which she couldn’t breach.
She certainly didn’t know that when the Great Brightness Curse was cast, for ten miles around, it was immune to any physical or magic attacks until the Curse Technique was complete.
Zhong Lingyu, feeling that something was amiss, did not dare to keep it to herself and hurriedly notified the higher-ups at the base and Lei Ting, who was outside on a mission, using her communicator.
Afterward, she watched Gu Shengyin, bathed in golden light, her mind filling with more and more doubts.
Lei Ting arrived quickly, and by the time he got there, the light emanating from Gu Shengyin had become blindingly bright.
He watched her face, devoted almost to the point of sacrifice, and a sudden, profound panic surged in his heart.
It seemed as if a voice in his mind was telling him: Stop her! Or you will lose her!
Without a second thought, he rushed forward, but, like Zhong Lingyu, was blocked by the shallow light halo on the outside.
