Chapter 346 - Apocalypse Sisters
Chapter 347 of "Quick Transmigration: Drama Queen's Daily Life" starts revealing surprises: Li Lewei felt torn inside. On one hand, she hoped Ye Dongâs reliance, Ye Qiu,... Read on!
Li Lewei felt torn inside. On one hand, she hoped Ye Dongâs reliance, Ye Qiu, would die just as in her previous life, and it would be best if Ye Dong also perished. On the other hand, she feared for her own safety if the base fell, and regretted not returning with Ying Yiming earlier if she knew the atmosphere was this tense.
The zombie tide erupted at night; nearly all superpower users at Hu Province Base manned the walls. Ye Dong and Duan Kai stood at the forefront, dressed in simple yet captivating combat gear, their presence commanding like guardian deities. Seeing them gave people confidence.
Li Lewei stood at the back, only able to see a glimpse of Ye Dongâs figure from behind, feeling complex emotions and thought to herself, is this the charm of a protagonist?
She didnât want to admit that she was weaker than Ye Dong, but the harsh reality was that she neither possessed Ye Dongâs strength nor her courage. Before transmigrating, she was just an ordinary studentâwhy should she have to face such a dangerous world?
She loved fine clothes and food, and even now she carried jewelry that was rare in the apocalypse. However, that didnât mean she was ready to give up. Some succeed through strength and others through relying on someone else. Li Lewei thought, since Ying Yiming is the male lead of this world, why not relax and rely on him to become the ultimate winner?
She admired Ye Dong, but she couldnât become Ye Dong; she thought, as long as Ye Dong didnât compete with her for Ying Yiming, she wouldnât obstruct Ye Dong from taking control and dominating.
However, although Li Lewei thought this way, she never considered whether she had the capability to interfere with Ye Dong. Could she even cause any trouble for Ye Dong?
"Kill!" Ye Dong raised her hand and launched several sharp Ice Arrows, piercing through the heads of the leading zombies, her actions boosting morale as the superpower users unleashed their deadliest moves.
Zhao Guang, a strength superpower user, followed Duan Kaiâs instruction to draw a large bow, shooting a Medicine that slowed zombie speed, formulated by Ye Qiu, into their midst.
Above the city walls, Fireballs, Water Arrows, Thunder, wooden spikes, and metal swords were launched simultaneously, eliminating a significant number of zombies just in the first round.
The sound of drums rose, a traditional method of boosting morale that still proved effective in this era. For their families and a better life, they each showcased their ultimate skills.
Injured by the zombies, they had anti-Zombie Virus Medicine; even when exhausted, the Crystal Core supplied by the base replenished their energy, and even ordinary people could grab a weapon and strike a few blows.
"Aoow!"
"Roar!"
"Grrr!"
"Everyone, be careful, itâs a wave of mutant animals, and there are zombie and mutant birds in the sky. Cannons ready!"
Li Leweiâs attack power wasnât strong. She hid behind other superpower users, protected by Luo Yong, so she didnât realize how brutal the battle was. However, seeing the densely packed zombie birds in the sky made her shiver with fear.
Was this the zombie and mutant animal tide that was going to overrun Hu Province Base? Could the superpower users at the base really withstand it? Li Lewei felt an urge to retreat.
She did not want to die!
Ye Qiu stood at the highest point of the city wall, saw Li Lewei who was unwilling to fight, and also spotted the Zombie King at the rear end of the zombie tide, a snow-white Silver Wolf, a Big Snake with a bulge on its head, and a giant eagle with wings spanning dozens of meters in the air.
Ye Qiu held the binoculars, her gaze meeting the Zombie Kingâs. His eyes, unlike the dull, grayish-white of normal zombies, possessed a reddish tint, resembling a sea of blood. Although his face was pale, it was free of bloodstains, and the rest of him appeared no different from a normal person. Ye Qiu also noticed that whenever he made a move, the zombies would change their direction of attack.
The Zombie King stared at Ye Qiu, revealing a cruel smile. His teeth were triangular like a sharkâs, and although he resembled a human and indeed mutated from one, he now seemed like a wild beast. On the other hand, the Silver Wolf, Big Snake, and Giant Eagle did not appear as dangerous as him.
Ye Qiu took a deep breath, realizing the far-reaching and heavy responsibilities of their battle.
"Luo Yong, letâs go, I have a bad feeling," Li Lewei whispered. Since the battle began, she had attacked only a few times, intending to save her strength to ensure a safe retreat.
"But the situation is very good right now," Luo Yong didnât want to retreat. Danger also meant opportunity, and everyone was pushing forward. What would it mean if they ran away now? Before the apocalypse, he was a soldier and a warrior, never once did he consider retreating from battle.
Even if the person asking him to retreat was Li Lewei, whom he liked, Luo Yong assured her, "Le Wei, donât worry, I will definitely keep you safe."
Youâre not the male lead; how can you be sure nothing will happen? Li Lewei thought anxiously, yet she couldnât bring herself to voice it out.
"Ye Dong, be careful!" It was Duan Kai who spotted from afar the Wolf King pouncing towards Ye Dong. Seeing the giant creature that stood five to six meters tall, Ye Dong looked like an ant before it. His heart trembled, but he couldnât get away as the Big Snake had its eyes on him.
The Wolf King and Ye Dong both possessed Ice powers, perhaps thatâs why it fixated on her.
"Aoow!" It looked more majestic under the moonlight, its whole body snowy white, and its eyes sharp as knives.
Ye Dong stood before it, not even as tall as its calf, yet she exhibited no fear. A man and a wolf, nearly a hundred meters of space cleared around them, any zombie that carelessly entered was instantly frozen into ice.
"Submit or die!" Ye Dong knew that at the level of the Wolf King, they understood human speech. She stared intensely at it.
The Wolf King seemed provoked by Ye Dongâs words, baring its sharp teeth and its green eyes filled with ferocity.
The confrontation happened in an instant. Both sides wielded Ice powers, freezing the nearby air, and even other Superpower Users with the same Ice power didnât dare approach them carelessly.
So their Commander Ye is this formidable!
The Superpower Users watched Ye Dong and the Wolf Kingâs attacks, thrilled and inspired. With such a formidable leader, how could they back down?
Kill!
On another side, the Big Snake confronted Duan Kai. Duan Kai wondered if this snake would evolve into the legendary Jiao. Could legendary creatures actually exist?
In mid-air, the Giant Eagle commanded a flock of mutant birds to launch a surprise attack on the Superpower Users on the city walls. Zhao Guang directed the Guard Team to fire cannons, lighting up the entire battlefield with massive flames.
Ye Qiu watched the Zombie King through her binoculars, uncertain if the Baseâs Superpower Users could withstand an attack if he suddenly decided to strike. However, it seemed he was observing something and had no immediate intention to act.
