Rebirth: Love in the Apocalypse

After that, Chu Wan'er talked about the black stone.

However, she didn't mention her previous life but instead said that her team had previously encountered a nest.

Listening to her explanation, everyone turned solemn.

"We need to retrieve this black stone." Fang Shuangshuang said in a determined voice.

This was the first time she was hearing about a black stone.

Knowing the zombies' attraction to the stone, she was naturally eager to examine and study it.

"I agree." Guan Sheng nodded, his eyes narrowed into slits.

"It won't be easy." A voice said, and everyone turned to Qin Wu.

After drawing everyone's attention, she began explaining.

"Chenxuan and I counted fifteen thousand zombies; almost thirty level three and more than one thousand level two."

"So many?" Someone exclaimed, and Qin Wu nodded before continuing.

"That's not all." She said with a solemn expression.

"The zombie that attacked us was at least the late stage of level three. We barely escaped with our lives."

After saying that, Qin Wu handed over a map.

"We drew this map based on our investigation."

The map was a simple depiction of the storage area.

It roughly showed the location of the black stone and how the zombies were arranged.

"I can use my vines to take the stone out of the storage area." Chu Wan'er suggested and quickly continued before the others could respond.

"However, we need to find a suitable ambush place before we make our move."

"Why do we need to fight them? Isn't it enough to move them?" Someone argued.

After all, they were facing almost thirty level three zombies and more than one thousand level two zombies.

Considering that, the brave survivors suddenly felt timid.

Rather than fight, most wanted to move the zombies, collect fuel, and leave the area as soon as possible.

"We only have two level three superpowers and a few hundred level two ability users. With our current numbers, fighting the zombies is like using an egg to hit a stone."

"Our task is to collect fuel. We should focus on that."

"Winter is coming, and the base is waiting for us to return with fuel."

"Our best choice is to return to the base and amass an army before returning to this place."

More and more survivors rejected the idea of fighting the zombies.

However, Mo Chenxuan, Qin Wu, Chu Wan'er, and several others knew that fighting now was the best option.

"I disagree." Chu Wan'er suddenly said, and everyone turned to look at her.

"We won't be able to return until after winter, but by then…" She sighed and continued.

"That black stone is very beneficial to zombie practice. After several months, the zombies may already have become level four or level five. Can our practice speed keep up?" She asked.

"I agree with Miss Chu. This time is our best chance to eliminate those zombies." Mo Chenxuan said.

Unfortunately, few were willing to risk their lives on a hopeless mission.

Eventually, the matter was put to a vote, and the fighting team lost by a large margin.

Seeing this outcome, Mo Chenxuan shook his head, but what could he do?

He and Qin Wu were only two people and couldn't face a horde of fifteen thousand.

Most importantly, he was injured and didn't have any advantages against the spiritual ability zombie.

After deciding to move the zombies to an empty lot several hundred metres away, the meeting ended, and everyone returned to their team.

"That decision was a mistake." Qin Wu muttered and subconsciously frowned.

"I know." Mo Chenxuan nodded, rubbing Qin Wu's hair.

Even with injuries, he was willing to find a way to ambush and kill the zombies.

Unfortunately, they had pig teammates and were dragged down at the critical moment.

"This will come back to bite us."

"Probably." Mo Chenxuan agreed, his eyes narrowed into slits.

After returning to their team, Qin Wu called Lin Rongrong.

"Sister Qin, is something the matter?" Lin Rongrong asked.

"Chenxuan is injured. Can you have a look?"

Hearing this, Lin Rongrong was startled and immediately became serious.

She, Xu Fei, Qin Wu, and Mo Chenxuan had travelled together since the start of the apocalypse.

During that time, she had seen Mo Chenxuan exhausted but never injured.

"Let me have a look." She said.

At the same time, she placed two fingers on Mo Chenxuan's left wrist and activated her healing ability.

Ten minutes later, she removed her fingers with a solemn expression.

"How?" Qin Wu asked in a worried voice.

"It's serious. Brother Mo has internal injuries, and some organs are damaged." Lin Rongrong said and quickly continued.

"I can heal brother Mo, but my ability level is lower than his; it will take at least twenty treatments."

"So many?" Qin Wu asked in an anxious voice.

"Mm,h but don't worry, he will be fine after the treatments."

After that, Lin Rongrong placed her hand a few centimetres in front of Mo Chenxuan's chest and activated her ability.

A moment later, a white light exuded from her hand and entered Mo Chenxuan's chest.

Simultaneously, Mo Chenxuan felt his injuries get better.

Unfortunately, he was too heavily injured.

Although Lin Rongrong exhausted her ability, Mo Chenxuan was only slightly healed.

"Rongrong, thank you for this." Qin Wu said, but Lin Rongrong shook her head.

"We are family. We don't need such words between us."

Qin Wu smiled when she heard that.

However, she still remembered her friend's kindness.

"I will rest for a while and then come back."

"Okay, but excluding Xu Fei, don't let anyone find out about Chenxuan's injuries."

"Got it."

Lin Rongrong left soon after, and the two hugged in the backseat.

"Are you feeling better?" Qin Wu asked and Mo Chenxuan nodded.

"My body is a little less painful."

"Damned spiritual ability zombie!" Qin Wu cursed.

She wished she could catch it and grind it to dust.

Unfortunately, the zombie was too powerful and she didn't dare to provoke it for the time being.

'I will kill you one day.' She vowed.
