The End of the Extreme Dao: I Planted a Sacred Tree and Gained Immortality

Chapter 47 Distance
"You don't have to."

Huo Ying was very serious: "I need your ability. It's a fair deal between you and me. I don't like to mix relationships between men and women in transactions."

"It's the end of the world now, and transaction value is more reliable than the relationship between men and women."

"I allow you to be by my side because you are weak enough and not dangerous, and your abilities are just what I need, not because you have any relationship with me."

Huo Ying said: "We don't have any relationship. If we encounter danger, we can abandon each other at any time. This kind of transaction is more reliable. We don't need to worry about the choice when we are in danger, and we will not abandon each other easily when there is no danger."

Liang Yao nodded obediently: "I understand."

Liang Yaoren nodded, saying that she understood, but she put her face on Huo Ying's palm: "I'm never afraid of the end of the world. I feel like I've always lived in the end of the world. Every time a day ends, I feel that this day is meaningless. Just like the trees on the sidewalk, each one is planted there neatly, deeply rooted in this town, but the deeper the roots are, the further away it is from its original life."

“I never understood the difference between me and the tree. Our lives must be happening in a very distant place, in our absence. The deeper our connection with the world we live in, the harder it is to find our own life.”

"Later, the town was occupied by zombies and the end of the world came, but my life didn't change at all. At dawn, I just lived to survive, and at night, I imagined what my real life would be like."

Huo Ying gently touched Liang Yao's head. If he had not come to this world, he would have the same feelings as Liang Yao. In the day-to-day study and work, he gradually became closely connected with the world, but felt a strong alienation in his heart.

In a wrong environment, people will feel that their life has not yet begun.

Huo Ying comforted him: "The end will come, and everything will be fine."

Liang Yao enjoyed Huo Ying's comfort like a kitten, and murmured in a voice that only she could hear: "The end of the world is over."

Because since she met Huo Ying, she no longer imagined what real life was like.

Real life has already begun, and when it happens, there is no need to imagine it anymore.

"Liang Yao, do you know how to trade with the courier?"

Huo Ying asked suddenly. He had asked Zhang Yuqi before, but Zhang Yuqi didn't want to tell him.

"The courier comes to the town once every two weeks. He won't enter the town. People who want to trade can go to the highway and wait for the courier." Liang Yao didn't mean to hide anything. "However, the zombie riot is about to start. Even if it's less than two weeks, the courier will come to the town again and take more supplies to exchange before the riot. If you want to find a courier."

Liang Yao calculated the time: "Six days from now is the day when the zombies will riot. The courier will usually arrive at noon two or three days before. The courier will usually wait for two hours. You can go and take a look during this time."

Huo Ying knew the direction of the road. He was the exile whom he had met in front of the road in advance.

"I don't know if Zhang Yuqi will bring me the blueprints."

The zombie riot is about to happen, and who knows if there will be any powerful infected creatures coming out. Huo Ying plans to exchange blueprints to reinforce the house, and also to exchange some seeds to enrich the food variety.

If possible, Huo Ying also wanted to find the courier to exchange some information, or the kind of weapons used by the gun girl.

On the other side, the gun girl staggered onto the road.

The blush on her skin had faded and she looked very weak now.

"Damn it, how could there be such a strong infected person in Ailing Town?"

The gun girl had a bad look on her face. It was not that she did not want to deal with Huo Ying in the mirror ghost, but the modified multifunctional pistol was already her strongest weapon. The enhanced bullet could even smash the security door, but it only made Huo Ying fall.

As for the catalyst of the infectious disease, she simply used the outbreak of the infectious disease to increase her physical fitness and forcibly heal her wounds. She had never considered continuing to fight with Huo Ying.

"That wooden armor is just a camouflage coating. There must be advanced armor underneath. I must report this to headquarters."

The gun girl used her only remaining right hand to take out a Yang Stone from her arms. Unlike ordinary Yang Stones, this Yang Stone was flat and had runes painted on it with special paint.

This is a special dispelling rune for XN City, not for couriers.

Using runes, the gun girl determined the direction and walked deeper into the road. After walking an unknown distance, she found a cave.

Moving the stone that covered the cave entrance, the gun girl walked into the cave.

Taking out a lighter, the gun girl was very familiar with the layout of the cave, and easily lit the torches placed in the cave in the dark. The light of the flame illuminated the cave.

This is a temporary base with a bed, a desk, as well as poplar wood, yang stone and kitchen utensils.

On the left side of the wall, there are more than a dozen password boxes embedded, and on the right side of the wall are locked an off-road motorcycle and a mailbox.

The gun girl walked to her own secret box, opened it, put the rune for finding the cave entrance in it, and replaced it with a new rune.

Putting the rune in her arms, the gun girl took out the motorcycle key from the password box and locked it again.

Walking to the motorcycle, the gun girl looked at the mailbox and found that there was a new letter in it.

Pulling out the letter, the gun girl frowned.

There was a red symbol on the envelope, indicating that it was an important document and she was not qualified to open it.

But after taking a look at her arm, the gun girl hardened her heart, violated the rules, and opened the letter.

The experimental subject's risk status has been eliminated.

The experiment to strengthen the direction of artificial control of infectious diseases was successful.

The number of experimental subjects remaining: 1.

The comprehensive strength of the experimental subject meets the standards of a third-level infected person.

Apply to participate in the Savior Program.

The gun girl shuddered.

Currently, humans divide infected people into four levels.

Level 1 infected people are ordinary people who have been strengthened by the infection. Gun girls, couriers who dare to cross the suburbs and have the ability to protect themselves when encountering zombies and infected creatures all belong to this level.

The second-level infected, nicknamed war machine, is a hundred times stronger than the first-level infected and is the core force of mankind in resisting the zombies.

The situation of the third-level infected people is very strange. All of them are on the verge of getting out of control. They may become human nuclear weapons, or they may be transformed into infected substances that are capable of destroying a country.

The Gun Girl had never heard that humans had risk-free level three infected people. She always thought that the so-called level four infected people, the saviors, were just a beautiful prospect for humans.

The gun girl's only remaining arm was shaking slightly.

The news concerning the fate of mankind actually weighed on her only remaining arm.

Suddenly, the gun girl smiled miserably.

“Yeah, I only have one arm.”

Being disabled, even if you are infected, means abandonment and death in the doomsday.

"Savior, whose world are you saving?"

The gun girl put the letter in her arms.

"I no longer believe in a savior. The only one who can save me is myself."

"This news will definitely bring an opportunity for transformation."

The gun girl got on the motorcycle, the engine roared, and drove towards the direction of XN City.
