Quick Transmigration: Kitten's Healing Handbook - Chapter 34
Chapter 34: Litter Scooper, Keep Up 12
Gunfire attracted many nearby zombies, and Mo Mo didn’t need to waste strength luring them away. Ye An closed the window and drove toward the zombie gathering place.
He needed to drive, so he reluctantly had a girl throw those two devices. If she was too far away, he worried her arm strength wouldn’t be enough.
Ye An had Mo Mo lure away the nearby zombies to create a safe distance, then opened the rear window: “Throw! ”
Lana, after setting the stun device to its highest power setting, threw it with all her might in two directions toward the clustered zombies.
The man standing on the car roof hadn’t originally noticed any vehicles approaching until the gunshot. Soaked from head to toe, he only then noticed that there were living people in the shopping mall.
As a mercenary, he could tell that the gunshot wasn’t from an ordinary firearm. Could it be reinforcements?
Xia Zhaoyang couldn’t think much at this moment. He’d felt his body overheating for the past half hour, his consciousness becoming increasingly blurry. If it weren’t for his mercenary will and survival instincts, he feared he would have met the same end as his companions.
He could only continue to swing his fire axe with all his might. But these monsters seemed impervious to pain, inexhaustible. Even knowing reinforcements had arrived, he still felt despair.
He didn’t know why the other party had used water, only that the water, applied to his feverish body, pushed him to the brink of unconsciousness. He feared he wouldn’t live to see their rescue…
Just before he completely lost consciousness, he seemed to feel a tingling sensation of electricity coursing through his body. Had the other party used the method of conducting electricity through water? It could indeed inflict large-scale damage, but how had he been electrocuted on the car roof…
Before he could figure it out, he completely fainted.
Ye An, seeing the person collapse directly onto the car roof, was somewhat dumbfounded. Rubber tires don’t conduct electricity. Was this person trying to scam them?!
At this time, the vast majority of the zombies were on the ground convulsing. A few still standing exhibited a Parkinson’s-like condition, but this was only temporary.
As long as their brains were still functioning, they still possessed an attack instinct. Also, the maximum setting of the stun device didn’t last long, and getting wet could damage the device. Ye An didn’t care whether the other person was trying to scam them; he drove the car, chasing the zombies, to another car whose body was already visible, performing a drift to stop alongside it.
There was space between the two cars to open the doors. Many zombies lay on the ground, but Ye An couldn’t reach the person lying on the roof from the driver’s seat: “Lana, open the door and pull him in. ”
Lana’s hands trembled. She wanted to cling to the male lead’s leg, but she needed to live to do that…
She could clearly see many convulsing zombies lying nearby, still reaching out their hands to grab!
Lana hesitated. Ye An was impatient. Although Mo Mo also said they should save this person, it was Lana who first suggested saving them, and now she was hesitating.
“If we don’t save him, we’re leaving. The stun device has limited power, and these zombies might get up at any time and surround us. ”
Lana steeled her resolve. No pain, no gain. Effort doesn’t guarantee reward, but doing nothing guarantees getting nothing.
Lana raised her hand, gathering her scarce abilities. She pulled open the car door, and without hesitation, smashed the zombies outside the door with her ability, rendering them motionless.
Mo Mo naturally helped secretly, suppressing the surrounding zombies.
Lana looked at the bloody mess at her feet, her stomach churning, but she knew she couldn’t delay. Using all her strength, she pulled the burly man from the car roof, shoved him into the back seat, and quickly got in and closed the door.
Even after they drove out of Morlan Town, Lana felt her heart racing, her hands and feet ice-cold, her body tense.
Ye An became somewhat wary of Lana, no longer as considerate as before. He drove silently until they reached another gas station. With Mo Mo’s advance warning, Ye An, armed with a handgun equipped with a silencer, quickly took down the zombies there with Mo Mo’s assistance.
Actually, for these nearby targets, he could have shot them in the head without Mo Mo’s help, but without assistance, the resulting scene would have been a bit gruesome.
Ye An got out, took the car keys, and said to Lana, who was still somewhat dazed: “You take care of him in the car. I’ll go check the convenience store. ”
After the car stopped and after Ye An’s words, Lana finally felt her thinking ability returning, but then she felt her mindset collapsing. In the book, Xia Zhaoyang started with a car, a gun, and abilities, looking down on other weaklings. But now, because of their rescue, not only did he not awaken his abilities, but he also lost his car and gun!
Could she still cling to his leg?!
The man, awkwardly crammed into the back seat, stirred, forcing the distraught, hair-pulling Lana to calm down.
Based on her experience from reading countless books, protagonists are Heavenly Dao’s favored sons. The problems she saw as problems might just be trials for Xia Zhaoyang, a minor detail in his journey of gaining experience.
After adjusting her mindset, Lana looked at Xia Zhaoyang and realized that because of her anxiety, Xia Zhaoyang had been lying face down the whole time, his limbs sprawled awkwardly from being shoved in.
Lana blushed, clearing her throat and looking out the window: “Um, you’re awake. I’m glad you’re okay. ”
Xia Zhaoyang adjusted his posture and saw a woman with an exceptionally curvaceous figure and blonde hair. She even looked away, sparing his embarrassment. His first impression was excellent.
Xia Zhaoyang looked at Lana’s hands; there were no traces of handling a gun: “You and your companions saved me? ”
Hearing that magnetic, low voice, Lana thought her ears must have turned red! This was the legendary voice that could make one’s ears pregnant!
Lana looked at Xia Zhaoyang, her face slightly flushed, and nodded: “You can call me Lana. May I ask your name, sir? ”
Foreigners seem to prefer using surnames for Chinese people, so he used his surname as a code name: “You can call me Xia. ”
Xia Zhaoyang looked outside; it was a gas station: “Where’s your companion? ”
“Went to the convenience store. ”
Xia Zhaoyang thought for a moment, didn’t get out, but leaned back in the seat and closed his eyes to rest.
He had thought it was reinforcements, but now it seemed he had been saved by other survivors. Since they were strangers, and the situation was unclear, it was best to remain quiet. After all, unless his pre-unconsciousness memories were flawed, this woman’s companion possessed heavy weaponry—not someone to be trifled with.
With that thought, Xia Zhaoyang abandoned his plan to extract information from Lana. He didn’t want to risk revealing information and having his background thoroughly investigated. After all, whether they wanted to admit it or not, men’s vigilance against beautiful women unconsciously lessened.
Seeing Xia Zhaoyang resting, Lana didn’t dare to disturb him, afraid of being disliked by the male lead. Lana wasn’t necessarily seeking a romantic entanglement with a powerful figure. As a seasoned bookworm, she was self-aware. She, a minor character, could easily become truly insignificant.
Being with the protagonist would certainly satisfy her vanity, but only if she survived.
