Lost Land (GL)

Chapter 45

"Here, have some water." Zhang Wanying handed Mo Bai a glass of water.

He smiled awkwardly, sitting on the floor, one hand covering his abdomen, the other carefully taking the glass.

After taking a few sips, he cautiously stole glances at the girl sitting beside him, reading a magazine brought from the mall. His heart couldn't help but flutter with excitement.

Just the two of them! What a great opportunity!

The girl, engrossed in her reading, had her head bowed, her white neck slender, her hair tucked behind her ear, her thick eyelashes casting a small shadow, a picture of tranquility, making it hard to interrupt.

But he couldn't resist talking to her, about life, ideals, and such. Now that his sister wasn't around, it was a perfect chance to take advantage (mistake). This was a matter of great importance.

This apocalypse, who knew what the future held? If he didn't hurry up, he might lose his girl, and then who knows, he might have to settle for being gay.

Mo Bai's eyes darted around, looking for a topic. "Well, Xiao Zhang, I really didn't expect Qi kui to be like that. She was pretty cool before, and my sister and your mysterious ability, they look so cool."

"Hmm," Zhang Wanying closed her book. "Ran Ran's ability is really powerful, I'm a little envious."

She looked up at the sky, recalling the scene of the three of them leaving. She sighed. She understood even before Mo Ran that Qi kui's mission was to go to her death.

Although they had known each other for a short time, she was very satisfied with their current team. They had finally gathered five reliable companions, only to lose one in an instant, which was a real pity.

Moreover, she was worried about Mo Ran's safety. This was the first time they had been separated since the apocalypse, and her heart was always in her throat.

If it weren't for Mo Bai, who had temporarily lost his ability to fight and was in danger alone here, and if Mo Ran and Huang Shan hadn't insisted on not letting her go to Blue Star, the place where she had been forcibly taken, she would have definitely gone with them to save Qi kui.

Hearing her response, Mo Bai chuckled, his eyes darting around uncomfortably, trying to find another topic. He was sitting by the edge, tall enough to easily see the scene downstairs.

At first, he didn't notice anything wrong when his eyes glanced down. But after a while, he realized something was amiss. He forgot about finding a topic and leaned over the railing, looking down at the zombies below.

It seemed like the zombies had heard someone's command, emerging from various buildings, gathering on the road in the bright sunlight, in an orderly manner, which was not consistent with their dislike of activity during the day.

Moreover, they were all swaying in the same direction, zombies from all directions gathering into one large group. At first glance, there was nothing wrong, but upon closer inspection, it was terrifying.

Could this be the legendary, zombie tide?!

Zhang Wanying, seeing him standing there for so long without saying anything, curiously came over to see. She immediately noticed the anomaly in the zombies. They seemed to completely ignore their surroundings, continuously gathering and heading in one direction.

And that direction, both of them felt a cold sweat break out at the same time, was the direction out of the city, the direction where Mo Ran and the others had left - Blue Star!

The atmosphere in the room was heavy, the four of them standing in their respective positions, speechless. Only the cat girl, tied up and with a gag in her mouth, was wriggling and making faint sounds.
