Quick Transmigration: Still Life Fairy

Chapter 404 Little Stone and Little Ginseng

The army vehicles arrived slower than expected, and they drove around the entire city, trying to rescue as many survivors as possible.

As they approached the villa area, they saw the extra earthen walls and thorny bushes surrounding it. Everyone knew that there were definitely humans active inside, including those with superpowers.

Despite being mentally prepared, everyone was still taken aback when they saw so many people in the villa area.

Everyone got into the military vehicles, except for the small squad, who drove a car that slowly lagged behind the military vehicles as they left with the army.

The long convoy stretched eastward, attracting zombies from the surrounding area.

The convoy moved quickly, clearing obstacles from the road. After two days, as they approached the military base, they encountered a problem.

"The army at the front has sent word that we are surrounded by zombies!"

The men who went out to gather information returned with faces full of fear.

"I just secretly saw it. Their reconnaissance equipment showed that there were swarms of zombies all around our convoy. It's terrifying!"

The convoy was forced to stop on the road at this moment, and the surroundings were eerily quiet.

Everyone in the convoy was uneasy, because something was clearly wrong. In the apocalypse, when danger could lurk at any moment, such quiet was obviously impossible.

Everyone began to whisper among themselves, chatting about unrelated things to calm their nerves. Meanwhile, in the military vehicles parked ahead, military personnel were discussing how to handle the situation.

The people on their machine team couldn't understand it at all; they could only see dense black dots representing zombies. The person who came to report didn't notice that in addition to the black dots, there were also yellow, orange, and red dots on the machine.

Different colors represent different levels of zombies. Black is the most common level one zombie, yellow is level two, orange is level three, and red is level four.

The bright red color on the machine terrified everyone.

The convoy currently has about three or four thousand people. Many of them are driving cars they borrowed and following behind the military vehicles. Among these three or four thousand people, there are only a few hundred people with superpowers. And among these hundred people, there are fewer than one hand the number of people with superpowers who have reached level two.

Not to mention Level 3 and Level 4.

The only one in their convoy who looked like a Level 3 zombie was probably the green-haired kid. During their journey, he'd made his move many times without a single failure. His control over plants was incredibly powerful; they'd encountered a Level 2 zombie once before, and it was no match for him.

Therefore, it is more likely that he is at level three.

Is it possible to bridge the gap between Level 3 and Level 4?

Everyone is thinking.

They knew that the burden of whether they could survive this time might fall on the shoulders of that green-haired kid.

"Let's go see him first."

The military leader, surnamed Wang, holds the rank of major and is a water-based ability user. While water-based abilities are not typically used for offensive purposes, he wields them with ease, making him a formidable fighter.

In this critical situation, Major Wang did not conceal his whereabouts, and many people saw him get into the squad's vehicle.

Everyone was talking about it.

The rest of the team were clueless, except for the captain, who had a vague sense of what was going on.

Major Wang didn't hide anything and asked Little Ginseng directly, "What level is your superpower?"

These days, he hasn't had any dealings with the little ginseng at all, and he doesn't know anything about him.

The little ginseng tilted its head, meeting his serious expression. "I don't know. I don't even know how you classify your levels, how could I possibly know what level I am now?"

Fortunately, the little ginseng wasn't entirely without guard, and didn't reveal that what it was wasn't a superpower at all.

"How is that possible? We always feel it when we level up; we just know it somehow. How could you not know what level you are?"

"I just don't know."

These words left Major Wang speechless, and he stopped beating around the bush: "We need your help now."

He took out his tablet and pointed the screen at the little ginseng: "See this? This is the information detected by the most advanced zombie detection equipment installed on our vehicle. Black dots represent level one zombies, yellow dots represent level two, orange dots represent level three, and red dots represent level four."

He pointed to the red dot with his finger: "These zombies, including this one, are all around us and are currently attacking us. Do you understand what I mean?"

“We’ll be fighting them soon. The convoy is so long and the road ahead is blocked. We can’t get out of there. The only way is to kill this level four zombie. If I’m not mistaken, these zombies are surrounding us because they are under his command. Only by killing him will we have a chance to escape. But he’s too high-level. The highest level among us is level two. Only you are of unknown level and are stronger than all of us.”

Hearing his words, Yu Liu, who had been resting with her eyes closed, opened them. Little Ginseng was A Ning, meaning she was one of her people. She could tolerate A Ning's capriciousness within her control, but a level four zombie's current strength should be equal to A Ning's current strength. In other words, if A Ning chose to fight, he might get injured.

Yu Liu couldn't stand it anymore.

"Major Wang, you know those zombies are too powerful, and none of us are a match for them. Yet you still say these things to my Aning. Are you trying to trick him into going to his death?"

Yu Liu reached out and hugged the little ginseng's neck, staring coldly at Major Wang.

The little ginseng had no name, but he knew that the "A-Ning" the stone mentioned was referring to himself, and he couldn't help but feel a little secretly pleased.

Major Wang's gaze remained unwavering. "I didn't intend to lie to him. If I wanted to, I could have simply kept quiet. The facts are clear: this zombie won't let us leave. We have no choice but to fight. If we lose, death is the only outcome. Whether he comes or not, the result will be the same. So why not give it our all?"

"Don't give me those high-sounding lectures. We can fight hard, but there's something you've been trying to distract us from. I'm not stupid. Since Aning is a match for that zombie, and the zombie isn't here right now, it means that if Aning and I run away now, we'll be absolutely safe. You've been trying to keep us here, to make us your tool to fight that zombie. Don't treat us like fools. At a time like this, you can't afford to be a saint."
