Surviving on the highway, I have a best friend who was reborn.

Chapter 96 Hua Xinyan Logs Offline

She frantically fled into the passage and entered the space of this monster's lair. Her body underwent strange changes, and the system showed that her pollution level was as high as 71%.

But there was no decay on her body. Upon discovering this, she no longer cared about being afraid of the many polluted monsters.

She took out purification potions from her system inventory and kept drinking them, but even after she had finished all forty-odd potions she had stockpiled, the system showed that the pollution level had not decreased.

I suddenly remembered what the captain of the guard had said: no one can control the contaminated monsters unless they are high-level infected.

This guess terrified and panicked her, and even using her innate skill to predict the scene didn't yield any results.

Before they could come up with a solution, Yuanqiao and the others had already caught up with them and arrived here.

She thought she could control the corrupted monsters and kill them all, so that no one would recognize her and would never know the secret of her corruption.

However, the other polluted monsters did not obey her commands or attack her. Instead, she commanded the giant python and yak monsters, which were the two weakest of the three-tier monsters.

Watching helplessly as Yuan Qiao and the guards' battle against the third-tier monsters gradually came to an end, the two originally ferocious corrupted monsters were already at their last gasp under the combined attack.

She had a bad feeling and knew she had to leave quickly.

But they were right near the passage, and she had no chance to get around them.

As she pondered, Hua Xinyan suddenly remembered that she had a bottle of invisibility potion in her system inventory.

His eyes darted around, glancing left and right, before he hid behind the disobedient Tier 3 monster beside him. Once he was sure no one was watching, he quietly took out the potion, unscrewed the cap, and drank it all in one gulp.

Instantly, a layer of transparent light enveloped her body, and her figure gradually disappeared into the air.

She moved cautiously, stealthily trying not to make a sound, slowly approaching the passage.

Yuan Qiao sheathed his lightsaber, having just run out of energy. With the giant python monster dead and the yak monster nearly dead as well, Yuan Qiao didn't go to help.

"Gao Leyu, help me~ cast a healing spell on me, my leg feels like it's broken, it hurts so much, I was entangled by it for a second, and my bone is about to shatter."

He limped over, and suddenly realized something was wrong.

Shiliu came over to help Yuanqiao, but after taking only a few steps, she felt something was even more wrong.

"Don't you feel uncomfortable, like you're being watched by something?" Yuanqiao asked Shiliu.

She had just calmed the blood vine down and put it back in the box when she heard this, and she became wary of her surroundings.

"Something is wrong."

After saying that, he took out a handful of popping fruits, held them in his hand, and gave some to Yuanqiao.

"Come out, you don't want to be blown to pieces, do you?"

Hua Xinyan, who was staring intently at the two people behind them, thought she had been discovered and her heart skipped a beat.

His breathing was a little unsteady, but he still managed to hold it in.

These two seemed to be her natural adversaries; whenever they appeared, she was bound to suffer. After cursing under her breath, she cautiously moved towards the passage.

We'll be there in 6 or 7 meters.

The guard captain, upon learning that Gao Leyu could use healing skills, wanted to come over and exchange pleasantries, since this ability was extremely important on the battlefield.

However, sensing something amiss in the air, and suspecting that other polluting monsters were about to make a move, the guard captain became highly vigilant.

A slight noise came from the side, as if something had moved. He looked sharply to the side, his eyes blazing, and with his keen intuition from battle, he locked onto Hua Xinyan, who was in stealth mode.

A slash was made, but the damage was blocked by the protective item.

He had seen corrupted monsters with stealth abilities before, so he shouted and attacked again.

He swung his sword again at the same spot, the blade's edge reflecting a slightly distorted silhouette in the air—that was Hua Xinyan's figure.

"It's you!" Upon seeing Hua Xinyan suddenly appear, everyone cautiously picked up their weapons again.

Gao Leyu: "Oh, Miss Traitor, you're trying to escape because you can't beat the polluted monsters you're controlling?"

Hua Xinyan gave him a cold look, but didn't say anything, knowing she couldn't win an argument with him.

He took out many items from his system inventory.

She first threw out a crystal ball that emitted a faint blue light. As soon as the crystal ball landed, it instantly released a powerful stream of freezing air.

A thick wall of ice formed around them, attempting to contain them.

Yuan Qiao didn't wait for Gao Leyu to use his healing skills on her. She quickly took out medicine for internal and external injuries from her spatial storage and swallowed it.

Hua Xinyan then took out a small crossbow and shot an arrow at Shi Liu. She hated this woman the most.

It's because she occasionally stirs up trouble in the chat room that many people dislike her, resulting in her not accumulating enough popularity and affecting her ability to use the prediction talent skill.

She didn't take the crossbow bolts seriously; they were easy to dodge, especially with the ice wall providing cover. So, she simply threw a dozen or so popping fruits at Hua Xinyan.

Unexpectedly, the crossbow bolt split into countless tiny needle-shaped projectiles in mid-air, flying towards everyone like a rain of pear blossoms. Wherever the projectiles passed, the air made a "sizzling" sound.

"Holy crap, that's amazing!"

Gao Leyu quickly activated his shield and took out a large, door-shaped iron plate, placing it in front of him. This was clearly a poisoned hidden weapon. Black short needles quickly attacked, but many were blocked by the iron plate.

Yuan Qiao was quite close to Gao Leyu, and he also took out another thick piece of iron and gave it to Yuan Qiao.

"Two desserts, you're welcome, give them to me when you have time."

She winked at Yuanqiao.

I wanted to ask Senior Sister An if she wanted the iron sheet, but when I saw that a magnetic field of electricity was floating around her, all the needles were kept outside the magnetic field.

Shi Liu watched as the other party easily dodged the explosion of the popping fruit.

This is a perfect opportunity.

Countless thick vines sprouted from the ground, covered with sharp barbs, and they pounced on Hua Xinyan like a group of agile pythons.

Hua Xinyan dodged the attacks of the vines while continuing to throw out props.

A disc emitting an eerie red light rotated, releasing beams of red light that severed the vines.

Seeing this, Shiliu increased her skill output, and the vines intertwined to form a huge net. Hua Xinyan dodged left and right, but there were too many vines, and eventually one of her legs was tied up by them.

To prevent her from continuing to use the props, Shiliu bound her entire body and put a restraining ring on her.

"Tsk tsk, I bought this restraint ring a long time ago, just so you could use it someday."

Apart from the guards, everyone else was from the same district and knew a little about Hua Xinyan's gossip, so they didn't get involved.

Instead, they studied how to solve the ice wall problem.

Three members of the guard were injured, pricked by the poisoned needles. Gao Leyu's healing skills seemed ineffective, and the potions were also useless; they didn't know what kind of poison it was.

The guard captain said there was an antidote at the Central Avenue supply station, and that he needed to go back for treatment.

The pomegranate's remote-controlled vines, like a sharp blade, pierced straight towards Hua Xinyan.

With a scream, she collapsed to the ground, her energy and blood drained by the vines, and she never moved again.

He took out a firearm and burned the opponent to ashes.
