Apocalypse: Transmigrated General's Daughter Uses Space to Survive-Chapter 90: Killing a Level-Two Zombie

Chu Miao had an uncomfortable feeling since they entered the mall but had dismissed it as paranoia developed due to many encounters with zombies. But at this moment, she was sure that it was not paranoia.

It was her warrior instincts that had been warning her of danger.

"Something is wrong." Ye Xuan said with a serious expression.

The others had not detected anything, but they had noticed the peculiar reaction of the two leaders.

They all kept quiet and looked towards the direction Ye Xuan and Chu Miao were looking.

Even though they saw nothing, they knew that something was there.

"I should have noticed that something was wrong when we entered the supermarket. Even though it looks like the person in charge of the mall did everything to clear the place and lock up the doors, it shouldn’t have been cleared of everyone.

There should have been people who were too timid to leave, those who ignored the situation and continued doing their own things, and those who didn’t have enough time to escape." Chu Miao said as she looked around the supermarket where everything was quiet.

"Mmm...this place is too quiet. Not a single survivor or a single zombie. It’s as if something had cleared them." Ye Xuan agreed with her observation.

"Bunny, what are you trying to say?" Chu Hao asked.

Everyone else also looked at her. If there were no zombies, wouldn’t that be a good thing? Why were the two reacting as if they were facing a great enemy?

However, grandpa Chu had been a general after all, he immediately understood the crux of the matter.

"If there are no survivors or zombies, it could only mean that something or someone had killed them. Which means that there is something more dangerous than humans and zombies in this mall." He explained when he saw that the others were still confused.

"Grandpa is right. Something very dangerous is in here." Chu Miao agreed with her grandfather.

"Then shouldn’t we leave now? Supplies are good, but our lives are more important." Murong Yi suggested.

The others also felt that leaving was a good idea. They had already obtained a lot of supplies anyway.

"Too late." Ye Xuan said.

"What do you mean by ’too late’?" Chu Hao asked.

"He means that we can’t leave even if we wanted to. That thing is watching us like we are prey. The moment we move, it will attack." Chu Miao replied to her brother and also let the others know so that they don’t make any sudden movements.

Ye Xuan was impressed by Chu Miao’s observation. He was a leader in the military and had led many missions, so it was understandable that he had noticed this peculiar detail, but the fact that Chu Miao had also noticed it was incredible.

However, he suddenly remembered the Chu Miao in his dreams. The one leading hundreds of thousands of soldiers in battle and swinging a sword to kill enemies.

It looked like that dream hadn’t really been a dream.

"Bunny, what do you think we should do?" Her grandfather asked.

Since his granddaughter had become the leader, he would do as she said. ƒreewebηoveℓ.com

Chu Miao turned and looked at Ye Xuan. "What’s your suggestion?" She asked.

In her opinion, the best course of action was to fight, but she wasn’t sure about what decision Ye Xuan and his team would make.

"We can only fight, because whether we want to fight or not, that thing will attack us as soon as we try to leave." Ye Xuan gave his opinion.

"I think the same way. We can try long range attacks and if it doesn’t work, then we can only use close combat." Chu Miao said.

"Sure." Ye Xuan agreed readily.

Listening to the decision made by the two, the others also entered battle mode. Even mother Chu became more alert than before.

She knew that something that her daughter deemed as a threat was not simple.

"Big brother, distribute guns. It’s better if it’s guns with enough stopping power." Chu Miao suggested.

When Chu Hao heard that, he changed his mind about distributing Glocks and changed to short guns. They were slow to load but the force of their attacks was sufficient to stop a strong enemy.

Ye Xuan also had Li Kun distribute guns to his team. They had submachine guns that could fire countless rounds per minute.

Once everyone was armed, Ye Xuan formed a bolt of lightning and brought it down at a certain hidden corner of the supermarket.

As soon as the bolt of lightning fell, a zombie moved and ran towards the crowd.

What shocked everyone was the fact that this zombie moved like a speedster in those popular speedster movies.

It was so fast that it was a blur when it moved. Moreover, unlike other zombies that have rotten flesh falling off their bodies, this one had good skin.

Even though the skin was grey, an indication that it was a dead entity, it still resembled a human.

That is, if it didn’t open its mouth. When the bullets Ye Xuan fired hit it, it made grunting sounds, indicating that it was still a zombie incapable of human speech even if it had a face resembling a human.

Because it moved too fast, most of the bullets fired missed. Even with submachine guns, it was useless. Only Ye Xuan managed to hit it a few times and even then it only slowed it down for a fraction before it continued speeding towards them again.

Chu Miao immediately realized that shooting it haphazardly like that wasn’t going to work. They needed a plan.

She turned to look at Ye Xuan who was standing at the front of the group next to her. Feeling her gaze, Ye Xuan turned to look at her as well.

The others didn’t dare to slack or slow down their firing. The Chu family constantly loaded the shot guns and shot at the zombie, even though most of the bullets missed.

Those that hit were indeed useful in stopping it in its tracks for a second before it started moving again. Combining the shotgun attacks with those of the submachine guns gave them room to breathe and held the zombie at a distance as they waited with anxiety for Chu Miao and Ye Xuan to make a plan.

When the eyes of Ye Xuan and Chu Miao met, they understood each other without even saying a word.

They both nodded and turned to face the zombie that was only ten meters away from them, despite the efforts the others had put in to stop it.

Ye Xuan raised his submachine gun and fired numerous rounds on the zombie’s chest without a break.

This of course did no real harm to the zombie, but due to the rapid impact of the bullets, it stopped in its tracks for a second. That one second was all Chu Miao needed.

She didn’t even need to aim carefully on the stationary zombie, using her spiritual power to track the fluctuations of the energy in the zombie crystal core in its head, she fired the shot gun in her hand.

One bullet, and the zombie stopped for good before falling to the ground.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they saw it fall. That had been a close call.

The bullet from the shotgun was so powerful that it exploded the head and a deep blue crystal core fell next to it.

Looking at that crystal core and feeling the intensity of the energy fluctuations from it, it was obvious that it was of a higher level than the crystal core from the level-one zombie Ye Xuan had killed before.

"This should have been a level-two zombie." Chu Miao said as she used her water ability to clean the crystal core and picked it up.

"It is indeed more powerful than the one we killed before." Ye Xuan confirmed her speculation.

"Recently, there hasn’t been the fog that helped zombies evolve, how did this zombie become so strong?" Mother Chu asked the question in everyone’s mind.
