With the sound of the pickup truck's brakes, the zombies at the entrance of the food street collectively turned their heads.
They must have been hungry for a long time, as they all let out excited roars and surged forward. Ning Yu didn't count them carefully, but there were roughly twenty to thirty of them.
The last time they encountered this many zombies, Shen Yiyue could only run to the top of the car and use the terrain to handle the situation.
So how far could she go this time?
Ning Yu casually got out of the car and summoned Blood Kite to her hand. It was making low, subtle sounds, as if responding and eager to join the battle.
"Rest for now, old friend. Today is her show time."
Ning Yu climbed onto the car roof with boredom, observing Shen Yiyue as she got out of the car.
She held a long sword in her left hand and a gun in her right, fearlessly facing the approaching zombie horde as she raised her hand to shoot.
"Bang! Bang!"
Ning Yu watched the direction of the gunfire - the aim wasn't bad, with only occasional shots going wide and not killing instantly.
However, this also indicated that Shen Yiyue hadn't activated her Future Reading ability, and was just shooting on instinct.
It seemed that with her abilities and various enhancement potions, her overall capabilities were improving.
[You killed a common zombie, gained 16 points]
[You killed a common zombie, gained 17 points]
...
Hearing the continuous system prompts, Ning Yu even took out drinks and snacks from her inventory space and started eating right there.
It felt like she was on vacation.
It felt great to be able to earn points just by sitting and watching the show.
Soon, there were only seven or eight zombies left charging at Shen Yiyue.
Shen Yiyue promptly switched the positions of her gun and sword, now holding the sword in her right hand and the gun in her left, ready to engage in close combat.
She actively rushed forward, swinging her sword in her right hand to cleave through two zombies' heads.
She then turned and pressed her gun against another zombie's forehead.
Zombies wouldn't surrender just because they had a gun pointed at them - this one continued to lunge forward with its claws outstretched, only to be met with a gunshot to the head.
Ning Yu admired Shen Yiyue's style of close combat with both sword and gun, nodding in approval. She felt she could teach her some more details about gun-kata style close combat techniques.
Shen Yiyue wielded both weapons skillfully, quickly clearing the zombies in front of her before turning to call out to Ning Yu:
"Little Yu, all done!"
Only then did Ning Yu jump down from the car. After locking it, she followed Shen Yiyue to the entrance of the food street.
"Well done."
She first praised Shen Yiyue, then added:
"But next time, no need to show off by pressing the gun against the zombie's head - just shoot them directly."
"Hehe~"
Shen Yiyue playfully stuck out her tongue, realizing Ning Yu had noticed her little flourish.
"By the way, Little Yu, do you have any spare bullets?"
The infinite magazine only had 150 rounds, and once they were used up, she'd have to resort to close combat with the sword.
"Don't worry, plenty."
A simple calculation showed that if all 150 shots hit their targets, they'd already break even, not to mention they could use it again the next day.
If the current 150 rounds were used up, they could just buy another magazine.
Given Shen Yiyue's current accuracy, it shouldn't be a problem.
"But we have a small lesson today, follow me up here."
Instead of heading into the food street, Ning Yu walked to a nearby residential building, preparing to go upstairs.
The two arrived on the roof of the two-story building, where Ning Yu took out an RPG from her system inventory and handed it to Shen Yiyue.
"Today I'll teach you how to use this."
Ning Yu exchanged nearly 1000 points for two practice warheads from the system.
True to its reputation for being simple yet powerful, the RPG only took about half an hour for Ning Yu to teach Shen Yiyue how to use it.
"Here, try it."
She let Shen Yiyue load the practice warhead herself and shoulder the RPG.
Ning Yu then took out a pair of earplugs from her pocket and put them on Shen Yiyue from behind.
Last time they used it, the situation was too urgent to bother with such precautions, but not wearing protection long-term could damage their hearing.
"Hehe, you're so thoughtful, Little Yu!"
Shen Yiyue felt Ning Yu's gentle touch near her ears and turned back to give her a sweet smile.
Then she turned around and began operating the weapon.
"Boom!"
The practice warhead flew off as Shen Yiyue pulled the trigger.
"Clang!"
A dull sound followed, without the expected explosion since it was just a practice warhead.
The zombies in the food street heard the sound and began gathering towards where the practice warhead had landed, creating quite a lively scene.
Looking at the gathering zombies, Ning Yu suddenly had an idea and said to Shen Yiyue:
"Come on, I'll let you set off some fireworks today!"
"Eh? What do you mean?"
Shen Yiyue asked curiously.
"I'll go gather them together, then you can send them all on their way with one shot."
Ning Yu explained her plan.
"Huh? We're using live ammunition so soon?"
Shen Yiyue had only just practiced briefly and wasn't feeling very confident.
"Just use your ability, what are you afraid of?"
Shen Yiyue nodded, indicating she was okay with it.
"Give me your gun. When I shoot into the air, that's your signal to fire."
As Ning Yu spoke, she exchanged a thermobaric warhead from her system inventory and handed it to Shen Yiyue.
Looking at the densely packed zombies in the food street, Ning Yu did a quick count and felt they could at least break even, maybe even make a profit.
"See that rest plaza in the middle? That's where I'll lure them."
Ning Yu pointed to a circular plaza not far from the food street entrance, which had several wooden chairs.
It looked like a place where tourists could conveniently sit and enjoy their food.
Taking the handgun from Shen Yiyue, Ning Yu jumped down from the residential building and walked into the food street.
Blood Kite in her hand was eager for action, but Ning Yu didn't engage in killing the zombies, instead letting them chase her.
She ran to the agreed-upon food plaza, standing by the central fountain, and let out a crisp whistle.
After this sound, the footsteps in the food street became more intense, with countless zombies swarming in from all directions towards the plaza.
The exploration team's intelligence proved very accurate - there were far too many zombies here, probably due to the high number of tourists present when disaster struck.
Ning Yu stood on the fountain statue, watching the mass of zombies below that could trigger anyone's claustrophobia, but didn't rush to leave.
There were still some slower, disabled zombies in the distance, struggling to catch up.
They couldn't waste this thermobaric warhead.
The zombies below had started stacking on top of each other, crowding and trampling as they tried to reach Ning Yu through their human pyramid.
Seeing the timing was right, Ning Yu leaped forcefully from the statue and ran to a nearby building, then quickly moved towards Shen Yiyue's position.
The whole process happened so fast that the zombies were still busy climbing up, not even noticing that Ning Yu had disappeared from the statue.
"Bang!"
Having reached a safe distance, Ning Yu fired a shot into the sky.
Nearby, Shen Yiyue aimed at the plaza now filled with zombies, her hands sweating nervously.
Hearing the agreed-upon gunshot, Shen Yiyue hesitated no longer and activated her Future Reading ability.
She instantly saw the scene of zombie flesh and blood flying through the air begin to play in reverse.

Explosive Plot Song Gua crossed over into another world, bringing along a whole crew of his doppelgangers—all of them mischief-makers. This was a world where everyone could choose a class. Song Gua became a "Bondweaver," capable of borrowing power, while his doppelgangers took on a wide variety of classes, covering just about everything. The number of doppelgangers grew day by day, each one a talented individual with a charming way of speaking. Under Song Gua's brilliant leadership, they would "greet" each other daily and engage in friendly "sparring," pulling off one major scheme after another on Earth. Sometimes they were bandits—stealing bosses, plundering mines, snatching resources. Sometimes they were saviors—descending like divine warriors to face world bosses threatening to massacre cities. Sometimes they even went undercover, infiltrating various major factions to stir up trouble from within, keeping their enemies constantly on edge. To prevent their doppelganger abilities from being exposed, Song Gua made them wear masks with mahjong tile patterns and don Taoist robes in various colors. "Remember, in front of outsiders, call me 'The Dice.'" "Got it! Boss!" "Not 'Boss'—it's 'The Dice.' Think about the vibe, pay attention to the vibe." "Yes! Boss!" "For crying out loud..." From then on, whenever they appeared, they would have their own theme song playing: ~Hey~ paying respects at the mountain stronghold at night~ whose arm is draped over whose shoulder~ gather your courage and follow along...
