Chapter 79: World Four

"There's no such thing as unfounded kindness in the world. If someone suddenly treats you well and takes care of you in every detail, they must have some ulterior motive."

This has always been Sheng Qingyin's belief, so when she saw Mu Bai handing her the second piece of chocolate, she couldn't help but start thinking about what Mu Bai might be plotting by being kind to her.

Regarding her family background, she had never explicitly revealed it. At best, the other party could only know that her father held some influence. In the unknown situation, Mu Bai shouldn't have a reason to go to such lengths, right?

As Sheng Qingyin pondered, the two pieces of chocolate provided her with a lot of sugar, speeding up her thought process.

"The commotion is on the second floor. Are you ready, Qingyin?" Mu Bai said, quickly finding the stairs leading to the second floor.

"Yes." Sheng Qingyin snapped back to reality, gripping the gun in her hands.

This time, Mu Bai took the lead, with Sheng Qingyin covering the rear. The two quickly reached the second floor using the non-operational escalator, then ran towards the source of the gunfire.

Seeing a swarm of zombies surrounding Xie Yu and the others, Mu Bai couldn't help but take a sharp breath. Silently, she took out two masks from her space, handed one to Sheng Qingyin, and put on the other.

"Qingyin, I'm counting on you to cover my back," Mu Bai said, also retrieving a short knife from her space and charging into the zombie horde.

Sheng Qingyin barely had time to say anything before Mu Bai started exerting force, using a straight knife to block attacks from first-tier zombies. Then, she swiftly used the short knife to cut the relatively soft abdomen of the zombies.

Mu Bai's speed in dealing with the zombies was quite fast, but the only downside was that she was too close to the zombies. Before she could kill many, her body was already stained with blood and the unpleasant stench of decay.

Seeing Mu Bai in close combat with the zombies, Sheng Qingyin's heart was on edge. She tightly held the gun, trying to assist Mu Bai with bullets and prevent her from being surrounded by zombies.

"Mu Bai, I'm out of bullets on this side. Do you have any spare ones?" Xie Yu soon noticed Mu Bai. Seeing her friend, who had become like a death god, reaping the zombies, she was somewhat stunned.

When did her friend become so strong? It hadn't even been ten minutes since they separated. Did she obtain some unparalleled secret technique or achieve a breakthrough in her abilities?

"Host, deviation from the intended character setting is 5. Please restrain yourself a bit," 045 timely issued a reminder.

Mu Bai's eyebrows twitched slightly, temporarily inserting the short knife into a zombie's belly, freeing up one hand. She quickly took out an ammunition pack from her space and threw it towards Xie Yu.

Mu Bai: "Brought two; catch them."

Xie Yu raised her hand, catching the first ammunition pack. When she tried to free up her hand to catch the second, Gu Er was faster, leaping to catch the second one.

"For you." Gu Er turned around and handed the second ammunition pack to Xie Yu.

Xie Yu looked at Gu Er, not only not taking the ammunition pack handed to her but also placing her own on top. "Why are you giving it to me? I don't use guns. You guys take it."

"Swift and decisive; my ability won't last much longer," Xie Yu said, then quickly resumed the fight.

Gu Er blinked, then quickly handed the ammunition pack to the only teammate without awakened abilities, wielding a knife to fend off zombies attacking Xie Yu from behind.
