Doomsday Carnival: The Little Monster Only Has a Seven-Second Memory

This is how some people feel sorry for you.

Huo Ling once had many people who loved him and felt sorry for him, but later they all left.

Then Lin Shuangshuang appeared.

Looking back now, her behavior was indeed strange. The little monster clumsily imitated humans, but the thing she learned fastest was love, and her feedback was direct and visible to the naked eye.

Huo Ling treated her well, and Lin Shuangshuang treated him just as well, creating a virtuous cycle between them. Although they were different species, their relationship was very healthy.

Lin Shuangshuang raised her hand to touch Huo Ling's face, then tilted her head back to kiss his cheek. "Go to sleep for a while. I'll keep an eye on things. Don't overwork yourself, okay?"

She'll worry too.

Although he looked like a captain, which made her feel gratified, he was still human after all. Even though he was now a superhuman, he was only a sixth-level superhuman. He would get tired if he didn't rest for a long time.

Lin Shuangshuang raised her hand to cover his eyes. Her palm was warm and felt very comfortable. Huo Ling closed his eyes and couldn't help but press his hand against hers.

The two of them leaned against each other like that.

Huo Ling felt a sense of relief and decided to listen to her. "I'll take a five-minute nap."

Lin Shuangshuang told him to sleep for half an hour, "Otherwise, I won't sleep either."

Huo Ling had no choice but to agree.

They are both childish in front of each other, saying many childish things they can't say to others, which are their own little whims.

Huo Ling smiled, closed her eyes to rest, and felt truly happy at that moment.

His whole world was in his arms.

I feel at ease.

Lin Shuangshuang hugged Huo Ling and was satisfied when she saw him obediently close his eyes to rest. Although her teammates were all very nice, the time they could spend alone together was much less than before because they were in the team.

She was somewhat moved.

Then I heard some noises and looked up at the big screen. The apple orchard was very large. It shouldn't have been this big originally. These mutated apple trees were expanding on their own, and the fruit kept falling to the ground and growing.

The small castle is still within the apple orchard area, so it naturally encounters many other groups, who frequently glance at it.

Lin Shuangshuang pursed her lips, disliking the greed and fanaticism in their eyes. Fortunately, they didn't rush up to rob her; they were all a smart bunch.

There are indeed only a few fools.

Most people are extremely cautious, except for reckless madmen.

Lin Shuangshuang could sense that some ability users would also use their abilities to probe the small castle. For example, plant-type ability users would sneak up with vines or launch dandelions to try to peek near the windows, but they would all be stopped by the patrolling Xiao Wu and Xiao Liu.

They bark a few times, then lock onto their target with their mechanical eyes, raise their cannons, and scare the peeping to death, causing them to immediately withdraw their powers.

Lin Shuangshuang could hear their lingering fear, their breaths coming in gasps.

"My goodness, there are mechanical dogs on there! The kind that carry rocket launchers!"

"Really?"

"Damn it, we've been spotted! Get out of here!"

"Let's go!!"

"Why did they leave? Boss, should we go?"

"Won't we get retaliated against?!"

"Oh no! What should I do? Brother Daqiang, I...I'm so scared!"

Stop pretending, you green tea b*tch!

"The guy who can build such a terrifying safe house must be extraordinary."

"They have a really strong mechanic on their team!"

People chattered amongst themselves, while the team that had been secretly exploring the small castle quickly retreated.

After being modified and upgraded by Zhang Dapeng, Xiao Wu and Xiao Liu can now barely withstand the high temperatures, but they cannot be exposed to the sun for a long time.

In the latter half of the journey through the apple orchard, mutated zombies also began attacking the small castle.

They are agile.

Hiding in the thicket of grass, when the little castle passed by, they would spring up like fleas and jump onto it.

The outer shell of the small castle was scorching hot from the sun, but they weren't afraid of getting blisters from the heat. After all, zombies don't feel pain and their minds are full of fresh flesh and blood.

The allure of the little castle to them is like that of a can of meat.

Lin Shuangshuang glanced at Huo Ling. He had only closed his eyes to rest for less than fifteen minutes, and so many things had happened. So many guys were eyeing the small castle. No wonder he had to keep watch at night, and no wonder he didn't like crowded places.

The mutated zombies have gone through countless dangers, just like beef balls that have been tempered and refined by the apocalypse, struck 9,999 times. They are bouncy and delicious, and their skin looks dry but is very resilient.

Corruption is an internal process; after all, in this kind of weather, it's impossible for zombies not to decompose. The internal decay causes poisonous gas to emanate from their mouths.

Lin Shuangshuang looked disgusted, her brows furrowed. She glanced at her pollution index, which was 88%, a significant decrease. As long as it didn't exceed 95%, she could calmly control her electric abilities to annihilate them, the pinkish-purple current crackling and striking them.

Her eyes were cold. She uttered the word "explode," and the mutated zombies instantly tore into pieces and exploded, scattering blood and grime all over the ground, which stuck to the mechanical legs of the small castle.

Those secretly watching from the sidelines gasped, feeling a lingering fear.

"Holy crap! That was a steal!!"

"God, is this for real? These zombies are all three or four-star level monsters! What kind of big shot lives here?! They're that strong?!"

"Thank goodness we didn't go in. Is this a place we can rob? Let's get out of here!"

"Shh, shh, keep your voice down! Don't let the people inside hear us, it's terrifying!"

"Robbery won't work. These days, anyone who dares to operate outside is tough, and this one is especially formidable. We can't afford to mess with them. Shall we just go live in the government's underground base instead?"

"Sigh, it's no use trying to pick up bargains anymore. Those who can roam around outside are all as shrewd as ghosts. They won't fight recklessly anymore. If they do fight, they'll stop short of winning. If they can't win, they'll run away. It's hard to find any bargains anymore."

"Our team hasn't had a single deal in half a month; the spatial alien core is cleaner than a face."

"Who can argue with that?"

The unscrupulous members of the squad were all sighing and lamenting the hardships of the world.

Lin Shuangshuang stared at the small castle, feeling relaxed and without pressure. She withdrew the current and then looked at Huo Ling, who was sleeping soundly.

She kissed him.

Several more waves of zombies attacked later; they were probably villagers from the surrounding area.

Huo Ling woke up precisely half an hour later. The moment he opened his eyes, the zombies instantly self-destructed, and there was still a flicker of mental power in his eyes.

Lin Shuangshuang looked at him, and said in surprise, "Huo Ling, you leveled up?"

After being stuck at the sixth rank for so long, I broke through so smoothly.

Huo Ling was also somewhat surprised, but then nodded calmly, "Yes, it seems you've broken through the critical point. I thought you needed some kind of help."

Unexpectedly, when the time came, I naturally stepped into the new level.

Lin Shuangshuang felt that his energy had increased significantly, and couldn't help but happily snuggle up to him, "That's great! That's wonderful, Huo Ling, you're amazing!"

Huo Ling couldn't stand the praise, so he pinched her cheek and looked at her mouth, which looked like a pufferfish's. "Stop praising me. I've only broken through to the sixth level."

Just reached the seventh rank.

There's nothing to brag about.
