Chapter 121: Save the Apocalypse (27)

Ren Zhu was still in shock from activating the eccentric skill he had never used before. Beside him, Yi Xiao had already sensed something and turned his head. Without Ren Zhu needing to move or speak, Yi Xiao reached out and pulled Ren Zhu into his embrace. Their lips and tongues entwined, and Ren Zhu felt the soft touch that was slightly cooler than a human’s body temperature. It made his whole body tremble involuntarily, and a faint blush appeared on his face.

“Mmm… you!”

The kiss was intense and powerful, leaving Ren Zhu slightly breathless even after Yi Xiao pulled away. He was having trouble keeping up with his own reactions. But what shocked him even more was that Yi Xiao looked different now. He gazed at the spirit crystal butterfly, which was growing larger in front of him, not with the previous hint of anxiety but with a disdainful cold smile. A golden, luminous object appeared in his hand.

The worm queen, the Spirit Crystal Butterfly, seemed to notice Yi Xiao’s change too. Its consumption of spiritual energy paused for a moment, and its wings flapped even faster. It wanted to maintain its peak speed, rendering its powerful but unable-to-catch-up opponent helpless. With this in mind, the queen’s face twisted into a more ferocious and gleeful expression.

However, this expression was replaced by shock in the next moment.

“Why…!”

The words of the Spirit Crystal Butterfly Queen were cut off as Yi Xiao took a step forward and instantly appeared in front of it. The abruptness of this movement caught the queen off guard. Although it had excellent reflexes and its wings twitched to escape, it found itself ensnared in a large, golden web that had appeared out of nowhere.

How was this possible? Nothing should be faster than it! Its reactions seemed sluggish now?! No, this person’s speed suddenly became terrifyingly fast. Moreover, this person, who had initially seemed dangerous, was now giving the queen the impression that if it didn’t escape quickly, it would die right here!

The queen’s crystalline wings flapped rapidly. Everyone except Ren Zhu rushed to attack Yi Xiao, but with a casual wave of his hand, Yi Xiao seemed to slap them all away like they were nothing, sending them flying and fainting upon landing.

“What’s going on?! How did you suddenly become so powerful? What did you do?!!” The worm queen’s panic was evident as it struggled desperately against the unyielding golden web. However, its struggles were in vain. Yi Xiao raised an eyebrow, thinking, “I have a lot to do later, but why should you care?”

His eyes turned icy, and the captured worm queen felt his gaze. Fear surged through its large, crystalline eyes. Moments later, it began to struggle intensely, emitting a silver glow.

Meanwhile, Ren Zhu approached, pressing his hand against his pounding heart. “Is it about to use a powerful move?”

Yi Xiao turned to him, his eyes sharp and cold, making Ren Zhu shiver involuntarily. Hadn’t he seen something suddenly appear in the web? Otherwise, he thought he might have been completely overwhelmed by this person’s gaze.

“Transformation?!” Ren Zhu stared at the web, where a breathtakingly beautiful girl of about fourteen or fifteen years old, with a pitiful and tearful gaze, had suddenly emerged from the worm queen’s remains. Her appearance could easily evoke sympathy and love from most men and make them willing to do anything for her. Unfortunately, this worm queen probably didn’t understand the bizarre variety of human emotions. She didn’t know that the two men before her had embarked on the path of pure love. In other words, they were indifferent to her current state. If this worm queen had turned into a fourteen or fifteen-year-old boy, it might have incited jealousy and provided an escape attempt.

Thus, in the last moments of its life, it witnessed the man holding it, without any hint of mercy, toss the golden web aside. Then, the pure essence of Yang Fire ignited from the edge of the golden web, and the exquisitely beautiful young girl was incinerated into ashes in an instant.

The soundwaves produced by the dying Spirit Crystal Butterfly Queen were nearly deafening. It nearly made Ren Zhu spit out blood from discomfort. Nearby creatures hadn’t fared much better. Weeds wilted, worms that hadn’t died yet exploded on the spot, and even the people that Yi Xiao had knocked away were now coughing up blood in a state of unconsciousness. This illustrated just how terrifying the death cry of the worm queen was.

However, the terror was in the past now.

Ren Zhu covered his chest, looking at the chaotic scene around him, pondering how to deal with the current situation. As he turned his head to speak, he suddenly felt his waist tighten, and he was pressed into Yi Xiao’s embrace. Looking up, he met Yi Xiao’s astonishingly bright eyes.

For some reason, Ren Zhu recalled that phrase, “take care of yourself.” Although Yi Xiao had single-handedly defeated the Spirit Crystal Butterfly Queen in an instant, he couldn’t help but think about the possible consequences of that phrase. Sometimes, difficult battles could help people better understand their own strengths. There was no need to be in such a hurry…

“They…”

“They won’t die.”

Yi Xiao waved his hand dismissively at the few people. Zhao Tianfu, the least injured, woke up quickly. He saw Yi Xiao holding Ren Zhu and, from above, instructing him, “Clean up.”

Then, like a shooting star, Yi Xiao disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Zhao Tianfu: “…” Was I still half asleep just now?

As he rubbed his eyes, he realized, seeing the carnage around him, that what he had heard wasn’t a hallucination. But…

“Ah… I thought I was a protagonist, able to activate the mainline of modern martial arts master, but it turns out I’m just a supporting character in the apocalypse mainline…” He muttered with a tinge of frustration while accepting the reality. After checking that no one was in critical condition, Zhao Tianfu took out his copper sword and circled around the worm carcasses.

He understood the principle that if you don’t kill the snake completely, you’ll get bitten. Despite being just a Daoist priest, he held a master’s degree in psychology and had a talented understanding of disaster movies, especially the reversals in those movies. Thus, to prevent a sequel to this apocalypse, he had to ensure that no survivors were left.

When Guo Jian Fei and the others woke up one by one and saw Zhao Tianfu occasionally poking the ground with his copper sword, they looked at him. Meanwhile, from countless worm corpses, Zhao Tianfu extracted a small, crystal-clear stone-like object. It looked very familiar, as if it would be black or red if its color was changed.

At this point, Ren Zhu sat bewildered in an opulent and comfortable room, within a double bathtub. He didn’t even realize when he had become completely naked. He was stunned by the fact that there was still such a clean and tidy room in the apocalypse, not to mention hot water for bathing?!

Beside him, Yi Xiao sat with a nearly flawless body full of strength. He reached out, turning Ren Zhu’s chin, his voice low and irresistible, “Look at me.”

Ren Zhu lifted his gaze, and the next moment, his face turned crimson. He could clearly see desire in Yi Xiao’s eyes, and he couldn’t help but avert his gaze. However, this only led his eyes to the prominent part of Yi Xiao’s body.

!!!

“Why is it hot… uh!”

Before he could change the subject, Yi Xiao had already pulled him into his lap. Ren Zhu’s thighs were pressed against Yi Xiao’s waist, and their skin made intimate contact. The combination of cool skin, warm water, and the flush of embarrassment left Ren Zhu speechless. For a long time, he found himself unable to utter a complete sentence, feeling like he had been pulled into an endless and slightly terrifying abyss. It seemed like no matter how much he struggled, he couldn’t find an exit.

Three days later, news came from Liu Mingqing, and the rapid response team, including Lei Long and other supernatural beings, arrived to provide support. They brought advanced technology and swiftly arrived on the scene. Once again, they carried out a systematic search to examine the surface and subsurface within a radius of a dozen kilometers, confirming that there were no escaped remnants of the worm queen. This brought relief to the three and a half remaining large-scale bases in China.

As for why there were three and a half large-scale bases, it was because an worm soldier had used a human to sneak zombies into the West City base, causing half of it to fall into the hands of extraterrestrial worms. Fortunately, with the death of the worm queen, although humanity hadn’t completely resolved the crisis, they had eliminated the most terrifying threat. With continued effort to kill worms and zombies, they believed that within a few years, they could restore much of the order.

The situation abroad was similar to that at home; everyone focused on addressing their immediate problems before dealing with international disputes.

Back at the original city base, Liu Mingqing, Zhao Tianfu, Guo Jian Fei, and others naturally received hero-like treatment. Old Meng even personally awarded them honorary medals. However, Mao Gan Cao was determined not to let the most significant contributors go unnoticed. Unfortunately, they couldn’t find Ren Zhu and Yi Xiao to award them the Lifetime Human Contribution Award.

“Ah, my big brother and his partner must have disappeared after saving the world. That’s how all heroes are! We just need to remember them forever in our hearts!” Guo Jian Fei sighed.

Mao Gan Cao rolled his eyes, muttering, “You sound like you’re talking about martyrs who sacrificed themselves for the country! They’re obviously not dead, right?”

“Haha, but I also think those two aren’t the kind of people who can be easily commanded. Now that the biggest crisis is resolved, they might be continuing to kill zombies in places we don’t know. They truly are heroes to us.” Zhao Tianfu chuckled.

Little Jin Yu wasn’t too happy, “I already made two metal robots and was planning to give them to Teacher Ren.”

Beside him, chubby Jin Paozi patted his nephew’s head, “As long as you have that intention, it’s enough. One day, you’ll be able to give them to them yourself.”

And so, life returned to normal, and humanity began its counteroffensive in this apocalypse. Everyone was filled with hope; they knew that while the apocalypse might not end immediately, the day of its end was no longer so distant.

One month later…

Each member of the nine-person team received a large package of boxed lunches. Jin Yu discovered that the metal robots he had made were gone, replaced by a cute little rabbit that hopped around and could spit water bubbles. When Guo Jian Fei woke up, he found a small dog that ran incredibly fast on his bed. Mao Gan Cao stared blankly at a little cat that could release lightning.

Such gifts couldn’t have come from anyone else, so the team members who had been worried about Ren Zhu and Yi Xiao finally let go of their concerns. During a meeting, Old Meng and the others suddenly received a large package that fell from the sky. Upon opening it, they found a bunch of seeds. A note was attached, saying:

“For all the saviors who have fought against the apocalypse and remained strong.”

After researching the seeds, Rainbow Squad from the research institute went crazy with joy. Half a month later, the outer walls of the original city base were covered with a rose wall that could automatically hunt zombies. It would later be known as the “Wall of Tenacity.”
