Among the members brought out by the Breaking World Squad, there were only two female members, one a healing type and the other a space type. Both of them were superhumans who needed protection. Lin Meng was quite used to her role of being protected. In fact, since her family was from Beijing, except for the most chaotic period at the beginning of the apocalypse, she was among the first to move to the base with the authorities and had very little contact with zombies.

After the team left the cleared area, when they were surrounded by zombies for the first time, she couldn't help but scream. A zombie that had squeezed through the gap pounced on the car window, making her tremble and scream repeatedly.

Yu Anyan, who was sitting in the back seat with her, opened the sunroof, stood up, and chopped off the zombie's head with a few slashes before the superhuman protecting them could make a move.

The zombie's pus and blood smeared on the car window. Lin Meng covered her mouth tightly to stop herself from screaming.

"You, aren't you a spatial ability user?" Lin Meng stammered as she looked at Yu Anyan holding the knife stained with zombie pus and blood.

"yes."

"Then you kill zombies?"

"Why can't I kill?"

"Shouldn't support abilities be protected?"

"If there's even the slightest lapse in the protection provided, I can't just stand there and wait to die!"

"How could there be an oversight?"

Lin Meng's words and the gaze she cast at the superhumans protecting them in the front seats were all swallowed up by Yu An Yan's watchful eyes. How could she not? Even gods have their moments of weakness, let alone humans. If a zombie were to extend a claw, she would be finished.

Yu Anyan offered a half-hearted consolation: "Of course, people are different. I am not someone who likes to rely entirely on external forces, and I am not just a space ability user."

"Isn't water magic just a supplementary element?"

"Superpowers are a new discipline, and each power should have many different applications. I'm a water-based power, but I've been out here for a few days, have you seen anyone come to me asking for water?"

Huh? Lin Meng was actually a little afraid of Yu Anyan. Although she was very kind and spoke very gently, and still had the appearance of a well-behaved girl with baby fat, she had an aura that made people feel oppressed.

"Why, why?"

Yu Anyan reached out and touched the glass that was covered in zombie pus and blood. She moved slowly, and the pus and blood gathered into a ball before finally falling to the ground.

"This is... a water system?" Lin Meng exclaimed, her mouth agape in surprise.

"Isn't the ability to control water part of a water system?"

Really? Lin Meng almost clutched her heart. Water-type abilities are that scary? She thought her healing-type was special enough!

As the journey continued, Lin Meng's impression of Yu Anyan was completely overturned. She didn't like staying in the inner circle of protection all the time. She would often rush to the zombies with a knife, kill them to her heart's content, and then come back. When resting, she also liked to "abuse the zombies" by dragging out a zombie that had just finished digging out the crystal core from the logistics department and using her unique water-based abilities to drain its water.

In fact, Yu Anyan was not as reckless as she appeared. She always chose to stand next to Jin Feiyang or Shen Shi'an from the Earth element, and would even greet them.

"Feiyang/Shian, I'm here to practice."

And they won't rush out when it's in a very dangerous situation.

The closer they got to Qing County, the more zombies they encountered. They barely had any rest time, working in shifts to fight the zombies non-stop.

One noon, Yu Anyan and Lin Meng were eating in the car when suddenly, Shen Jinyao came running back with two people carrying Qin Lang.

"What's wrong?"

"I got bitten."

Yu Anyan's expression changed. Although people with superpowers are less likely to be infected than ordinary people, they are not completely immune.

"It shouldn't have been a zombie bite."

"should?"

Qin Lang was laid flat on the ground. There was a circular wound on his ankle. It was very thin, but it looked very deep. His entire foot was stained red with blood, but there seemed to be something in the blood.

"What are these black spots?" Lin Meng had already treated several wounded people, and her superpowers were almost exhausted, but she still held the crystal core in one hand, preparing to go forward to help.

"We suspect that what bit him is poisonous." Shen Jinyao stopped Lin Meng: "An Yan, the doctor's suggestion is to bleed him first."

Yu Anyan pointed to herself: "You want me to bleed him out?"

"Because we don't know how long he's been bitten, the medics on the mission are rather rough and will bleed a lot. I'm worried he won't be able to hold on," Shen Jinyao explained. He added that the medics' treatment methods, especially during missions, are primarily focused on saving lives, and any aftereffects are a matter for later.

If there's no other way, survival is the priority. But their Breaking World Squad has two special ability users. Healing ability users can only quickly treat external injuries without the risk of infection, and they don't know how to deal with this suspected toxin. But they still have Yu Anyan. Letting her bleed is much more reliable than the military doctor doing it.

"I'll give it a try. You guys keep an eye on the amount of blood being drawn. If you think it's too much, call me to stop." Yu Anyan had only ever thought about draining others dry; she never imagined she could save lives.

After saying that, he put his hand close to the wound, and saw that the blood in the wound slowly flowed out, but instead of flowing down, it gathered in the air.

He took out a sealable box and handed it to Shen Jinyao: "Open it, the black spots in the blood are alive."

When Shen Jinyao saw that the black dot in the box was actually moving, his expression turned even uglier: "Quickly go find the people from the base."

The box was half full of blood. Yu Anyan hesitated; the amount of blood loss was a bit too much. Qin Lang propped himself up to check the condition of his ankle.

"An Yan, it's okay, let's continue."

"No, your face is as white as paper." Yu Anyan drew out a final spurt of blood, holding it above her palm to examine it. "It seems there are no more black spots here. Should we stop?"

Removing the black spots is important, but we can't really drain people dry, can we?

"Stop, we can't bleed anymore," Shen Jinyao said, gesturing for Lin Meng to step forward and treat the external injuries.

The people from the base arrived quickly and began studying the wriggling black dots on-site. They soon concluded that it resembled a parasite in a plant.

"Plants? Qin Lang's injury is a plant scratch, uh, a plant bite?" Jin Feiyang looked at the circular wound and changed the verb.

Qin Lang suddenly remembered: "Right, there was a very strong zombie earlier. We were forced to retreat into a patch of dark green grass. The grass wasn't tall and there wasn't much of it. I felt a slight stinging pain at the time, but I didn't think much of it. Later, I noticed that my ankle was bleeding."

"You mean it doesn't hurt that much?"

"Yes, we didn't even notice until there was blood everywhere."

"Oh no, a lot of people have walked on that patch of grass. Quickly go and check if they have any wounds that we haven't noticed."
