Apocalypse: Master of Soul Beasts

Chapter 218: Chapter 18 Xiao Xue (Two-in-One Big Chapter)_1

”Time’s up.”

Right after Kuangliu said these words, Fang Bai’s face suddenly changed dramatically!

Then, paying no attention at all to Kuangliu, who was very close and completely unguarded, he turned and fled into the distance!

At this moment, a flash of fire suddenly appeared in the sky!

”Tsk, I’m also embarrassed to use this kind of method against you!”

”But, as you’ve said, the victor is king, and the loser is the pawn! No matter the means, the outcome is the only thing that matters!”

Kuangliu didn’t bother to check whether Fang Bai had heard, muttering to himself as he activated another skill.

Invincible (S-Class, Active Skill): Upon activation, grants immunity to all damage for 10 seconds!

Go all out, I’ve got your back!

Three seconds later.

A shower of missiles rained down like a storm on the small battlefield. In less than five seconds, they plowed through it dozens of times!

The smoke was thick. The earth was shaking!

The survivors in the CD Assembly Site, watching the catastrophe-like scene in the distance and feeling the tremors under their feet, couldn’t help but shiver.

At this stage, the power of hot weapons was truly that of a killing machine!

When the dust finally settled, Kuangliu calmly took out a gas mask from his space ring and put it on his face. Only then did he start walking towards where Fang Bai had fled.

...

The ground bombarded by missiles was pockmarked, but thankfully, Kuangliu’s strength was such that he wasn’t bothered by these trivial matters.

As if out for a stroll, Kuangliu walked for about a minute before he finally stopped.

On the ground, a patch of blood bloomed like fresh flowers.

Kuangliu slowly squatted down and picked up an arm lying on the ground.

He carefully examined the amount of blood on the ground and the wounds on the severed arm. He pondered for a moment, lost in thought.

After a while, Kuangliu took out a silver-white walkie-talkie from his space ring and began to speak slowly.

”Mission failed. Fang Bai is not dead.”

”Also, send people to recruit the survivors at the CD Assembly Site. Yes, I will bring Professor Bai directly back to Yanjing.”

After saying this, Kuangliu glanced around his environment, turned, and headed for the CD Assembly Site.

...

Early the next morning, Wen Yu was awakened by the noise from next door.

Listening to the conversation, it was the typical sort of thing: a gentle, home-making wife cautioning her husband, who was about to leave, to be careful.

It was mundane yet warm.

Wen Yu gave a mighty stretch on his bed before finally climbing out.

Washing his face, brushing his teeth, having breakfast, and then giving Star a quick clean.

This was his morning routine.

Unfortunately, today was destined to be different from usual.

...

When Wang Zhigang led a large group into the neighborhood, Wen Yu was already dressed and sitting quietly in his room.

In a little while, Wang Zhigang knocked on Wen Yu’s door.

CLICK. The door opened. Wang Zhigang looked at Wen Yu in front of him, nodded with a smile, and then stepped aside, revealing the person behind him.

She wore a clean-cut military uniform and had short, ear-length hair. Scoring at least an 80 out of 100 for her looks, she came across as heroic and beautiful. This was Wen Yu’s first impression.

Well, she also had a great figure. Most importantly, she was very clean. Clearly, in this post-apocalyptic world, she had never lacked water, or even various toiletries and cosmetics. You should know, the definition of ’beauty’ before the apocalypse was different from after. Before the apocalypse, there were countless criteria for judging a beauty. But after the apocalypse, as long as a young woman was clean, wore nice clothes, and perhaps even a little makeup, she was considered a beauty in the eyes of survivors! Beauties before the apocalypse were people everyone tried to get close to. But beauties after the apocalypse? They were definitely people everyone respected from a distance! Because beauty meant she either had powerful backing or was strong herself! This woman clearly had both! This could be inferred from the little Soul Beast on her shoulder alone!

”Military Super Warrior Number 1?” Wen Yu asked, raising his eyebrows at the woman.

Then, Number 1 gave Wen Yu a sweet smile.

”Yes, I’m Number 1. I also hold Sequence Number 19. You can call me Xiao Xue.”

...

When Wang Zhigang brought Xiao Xue to Wen Yu, his mission was considered complete.

After bidding Wen Yu farewell, Wang Zhigang left Wen Yu’s room and prepared to return to Central City.

Only Xiao Xue, her contingent of people, and Wen Yu remained.

Xiao Xue slowly walked into the house, her head turning as she curiously examined the layout of Wen Yu’s room.

After a moment, a crisp voice, tinged with sweetness, spoke up.

”Why don’t you live in Central City? The environment there should be much better than here, shouldn’t it?”

Wen Yu looked at Xiao Xue’s questioning eyes and replied.

”This is my home.”

”Oh....”

Xiao Xue deliberately elongated her tone, nodding her head and looking at Wen Yu with a strange expression.

”You... well, how should I put it, are quite lazy!”

”Because you’ve decorated your home really hideously.”

Wen Yu was left speechless.

This woman really didn’t mince her words!

...

After a while, Xiao Xue finished surveying the room. She sat down directly opposite Wen Yu, picked up the teacup in front of her, and in one gulp, drank all the tea Wen Yu had poured for his guest!

Her beautiful, large eyes glanced back and forth between Wen Yu, the Soul Beast on his shoulder, and Star. Then, she asked directly.
