My Girlfriend is a Zombie

Chapter 556 – Flowers Abundantly

“Hey, was there some noise coming from upstairs just now?” A member of Team F patrolling the area raised his head, looking at the ceiling.

“Isn’t that the regimental commander’s room above?” Another member replied with a knowing smirk, “It’s pretty normal, every time we patrol here we hear something, don’t mind it.”

“So it’s the regimental commander… I get it.”

He nodded, letting out an envious sigh: “The regimental commander’s life is really comfortable…”

“Yeah, really comfortable… However, I bet I’m not the only one who hopes that jerk of a commander leaves soon, right?”

“Heh heh heh… don’t worry, the whole team understands you!”

“It’s so sad…”

“And thrilling…”

“I feel like I’m about to break down again. Lately, it feels like we’re back to when the disaster just broke out, every day is so painful…”

“Why ‘again’? But hang in there, brother, we don’t need girls to live strong, you’ve got me!”

“It’s you who needs to hang in there, right? I’ve got no intentions of matching your sexual orientation…”

“Heh heh heh heh…”

After a bitter laugh, the two Team F members sighed and were about to leave when they heard another thump.

“Another noise?”

“The regimental commander sure is full of energy…”

“I really wish he’d sprain his back and get drained dry sooner…”

“Stop it, it’s all tears when you bring it up. Besides, his misfortune wouldn’t do us any good…”

The two walked away, filled with emotions…

Just as they turned the corner at the end of the corridor, a shadow flitted past the window.

With a gust of wind, a few sparkling fragments were blown down, silently landing on the edge of the window.

If someone were present and took a closer look, they would see that it was a piece of glass the size of a rice grain…

…

Meanwhile, in a ruin not too far from the TV station.

Thump!

A female zombie deftly flipped down from a second-story railing, and as she landed, her scythe neatly decapitated a staggering zombie coming at her.

The zombie was slow, but its arms were unusually thick, its nails as sharp as blades. But in the face of the scythe’s wide attack range, it didn’t stand a chance.

Moreover, the angle and timing of the female zombie’s attack were perfect; she was a natural-born killer.

A beautiful instant kill!

However, as the blood spurted out, the female zombie’s gaze seemed a bit distracted.

She glanced around as if searching for something.

“Over here!”

Another figure suddenly appeared behind her, and a cold gleam of light closed in on Xia Na.

“So fast!”

Xia Na’s eyes immediately focused, and although the danger came suddenly, her reaction was not slow.

Red-Eyed Nana swiftly rose from the shadows under her feet, and her scythe, like a blood moon, quickly slashed towards the figure.

Mental attack!

The shadow’s movements suddenly froze for a moment, and Black Na, who was already turning around with a sinister smile, aimed her scythe at the top of the figure’s head.

“Sister, this level of sneak attack is useless against me!”

Red-Eyed Nana took a step back and merged with Black Na, chuckling as she spoke.

Her voice at this moment sounded like someone saying the same sentence twice with different intonations, then playing it back simultaneously.

It was much like an echo, yet with a subtle difference.

The eerie tone, along with the scythe cutting through the air, and the long hair fluttering as she turned, made the girl seem like a witch coming straight out of hell.

However, with a “swish,” this powerful slash missed its mark entirely.

“Hehe, I’m not such a naive fool! You old demon of Black Mountain!”

“Who’s the old demon of Black Mountain! That’s just a side effect of separation, okay?!”

Laughter suddenly came from behind Xia Na, and what Xia Na had just struck was obviously just an afterimage.

“Tsk, you’ve already become so proficient with Flash in the Pan? You’ve only learned it for one day!”

Xia Na bit her lip.

“Whoosh!”

At that moment, a sharp sound of something cutting through the air suddenly attacked, aiming precisely at Li Ya Lin who was behind Xia Na.

The elder sister’s face changed, and she quickly leaped backward, then darted to the side.

“Clang!”

A piece of rebar pierced the spot where she had just leaped from, sending up a shower of sand and stones.

Xia Na quickly looked up, just in time to see a shadow leap out from the darkness above and rush towards her.

“Behind you!”

Ye Lian called out.

Xia Na quickly turned around, only to discover three Li Ya Lins emerging behind her.

“Is it Flowers Abundantly this time?” Xia Na frowned.

Indeed, after learning to utilize her advantages, Li Ya Lin’s strength had changed significantly from before.

Troublesome, very tricky.

Both Flash in the Pan and Flowers Abundantly were built upon Li Ya Lin’s speed and flexibility.

After consuming a large amount of Mutated Snake gel, Li Ya Lin had actually become a hybrid of zombies and a mutant snake, a humanoid mutant snake.

Her bone joints could dislocate unnaturally, and if there really was someone who could twist themselves into a pretzel, it would be Li Ya Lin.

Not just her body, but her arms and legs could be twisted as well.

And this was just the beginning. As she continued to evolve, her bones and body’s resilience were bound to undergo even greater changes.

Flash in the Pan was actually the simplest trick; as long as her speed was fast enough, she could appear like a fleeting flower in one place for a moment and then disappear quickly.

The execution of Flowers Abundantly was much more difficult. It required Li Ya Lin to push her speed to the limit in a short time, maintain rapid movement for a period, and combine it with her flexible and varied movements to create several illusions of herself at the same time.

And just being fast wasn’t enough, because whether it was zombies or humans equipped with tools like infrared night vision goggles, they could easily determine the true Li Ya Lin by her body heat.

Hence, Flowers Abundantly was actually quite a superficial tactic against other zombies…

But Li Ya Lin was different; she was now half a Mutated snake, inherently equipped with a thermal imaging observation system…

“Which one is it!”

Xia Na kept a close eye on the three figures; each of their expressions was identical, and their movements were in perfect sync, showing no discernible differences.

This was really just a basic version of Flowers Abundantly. Theoretically, if Li Ya Lin continued to grow stronger, not only three shadows but even three hundred could appear.

But for now, the possibility of projecting three hundred shadows seemed extremely low.

“Which one is it!”

“Hehehe…”

Laughter from Li Ya Lin echoed from three different directions, increasing Xia Na’s anxiety.

“One for each person… one for each!”

Ye Lian’s slightly stuttering voice came from behind.

A rebar slipped from her hand, shooting straight towards the Li Ya Lin on the far left.

Black Na and Red-Eyed Nana immediately separated, each confronting another Li Ya Lin.

“You guessed wrong!”

From behind Ye Lian, suddenly, a voice was heard.

Ye Lian stared blankly ahead; she was now without any weapons in her hands.

Amongst the Flowers Abundantly, there was also an element of A flash in the pan; one of the figures was nothing but a fleeting afterimage…

“Not necessarily…”

Ye Lian suddenly turned around, now holding a sniper rifle equipped with a suppressor.

This suppressor had also been looted from the Falcon Second Camp, and it was perfectly suited for her Thor sniper rifle.

“Bang!”

A suppressed shot rang out at a much lower decibel.

Before the figure was seen, Ye Lian’s shot was fired at the ground as she jumped up.

Using the recoil, Ye Lian propelled herself into the air, retreating nearly twenty meters backward.

At the same time, a white shadow swiftly sprang out from the side, and countless silver threads shot out.

The immense power of the sniper rifle sent building debris flying in all directions, and Li Ya Lin, who had been hiding her presence through high-speed movement, was forced to reveal herself.

As soon as she appeared, she was bound by Black Silk, and Xiao Bai, spreading its limbs, pounced from above her head.

Panda Fall!

“Hey! How can you all team up…”

“Bang!”

A cloud of dust rose from Xiao Bai’s massive body, while the agile Ye Lian landed lightly and glanced at Xia Na beside her.

“What’s wrong, Sister Ye Lian? You need to focus during training,” said Xia Na.

“Uh… I’m feeling a bit uneasy… Have you felt like… Ling Mo is… starting to drift away from us?” Ye Lian spoke, her two fingers coming together and then slowly separating again, gradually increasing the distance between them.

Xia Na paused for a moment, then mimicked Ye Lian’s gesture, and pondered thoughtfully.

“It seems like it…”
