All the women in the apocalypse are mine

For Luo Qingying, who can transform into a giant, wouldn't that be the perfect match?

After all... despite possessing formidable giant strength, Senior Qingying was utterly powerless against the Void Scale Lizard, a creature brimming with deadly poison.

The duration of the Tiga suit coincided perfectly with Luo Qingying's transformation time, making it even more powerful.

"Um...is that so?"

Luo Qingying forced herself to suppress the unease in her heart as she looked at the magic wand in her hand... She still felt it was a bit outrageous.

"In that case... Senior Qingying can protect everyone much better~"

Night Starfall said with a sigh.

"Isn't there you?" Luo Qingying couldn't help but complain, "With your meticulous care for those little girls, do you really need me to protect you?"

"But... if I'm gone, I'll have to rely on Senior Qingying."

Ye Xinglu chuckled lightly, speaking in a joking tone.

"Xingluo, you're talking strangely today... It sounds like you're entrusting your orphan to someone."

Luo Qingying sensed something was wrong.

"Well, you could say that," Ye Xinglu readily admitted. "But it's only a possibility. There's still a very high chance I can survive and protect everyone."

The room fell silent. Luo Qingying and Ling Xiaowei froze in place, quickly analyzing the meaning behind Ye Xingluo's calm words.

"Are you serious?"

Luo Qingying stared intently into Ye Xingluo's eyes and said, biting her lip.

"I think it's better to prepare you mentally beforehand than to be suddenly hit with bad news," Ye Xinglu shrugged. "Of course, this is just in case."

Ye Xingluo was actually quite confident, but no one could guarantee that nothing unexpected would happen, and he also needed to consider what the girls should do if something unexpected did occur.

He's destined to be a Summoner who's highly praised by beautiful girls... He won't easily give up on the girls who follow him.

Luo Qingying is also a very capable Star Favorite. In addition, she has many years of experience as the head of the dance troupe, so she has plenty of experience in management and leadership. Ye Xingluo is very reassured to entrust her with this task.

"Starfall...please don't leave us."

Ling Xiaowei suddenly hugged Ye Xingluo tightly around the waist and raised her slightly pale face.

Her mind was in complete turmoil... Ye Xingluo's sudden revelation of such a cruel truth caught Ling Xiaowei completely off guard.

"Hey, aren't you underestimating us?" Luo Qingying raised her small fist and punched Ye Xingluo's shoulder, saying angrily, "We can help you too!"

"No, Qingying, you can't fully control your abilities yet. But Xiaowei... would you be willing to do something very dangerous with me, the kind where you could die if you're not careful?"

Ye Xinglu gently stroked Ling Xiaowei's hair and asked tenderly.

He came here specifically to find Ling Xiaowei, as the girl's abilities could provide him with great help. Since Luo Qingying was also there, he took the opportunity to say a few more words.

It's not that there's no way to solve the problem without Ling Xiaowei, but it will increase the danger level of Ye Xingluo himself.

"It's entirely up to Wei's own will... I won't force you..."

Ye Xingluo's voice was soft... but a faint sigh escaped her lips.

He was well aware of... the way he spoke...

Ling Xiaowei, who is deeply in love with him, simply cannot refuse.

I guess I took advantage of Xiaowei's feelings for him a little... I'll find a chance to make it up to this petite and adorable girl later.

"As long as... as long as it can help Xingluo..." Ling Xiaowei said excitedly, "I'm not afraid of death!"

Just as Ye Xingluo had thought, Ling Xiaowei, who was extremely dependent on him and had also had intimate physical contact with him, agreed without hesitation.

Outside the door, Peach's small hand, which had been gripping the doorknob, trembled as she let go.

Her body had been frozen there for some time.

She had clearly overheard the entire conversation inside the room.

Peach leaned against the wall, her heavy body slowly slumping down... A deep sense of powerlessness welled up in her heart.

Xinglu is in trouble... It seems like there's nothing she can do but stay here.

She didn't have any special powers; she was just an ordinary girl.

But...she also wanted to protect Xingluo!

...

Meanwhile, in a dark and gloomy space.

Suddenly, a huge, single eye appeared in the darkness, unblinking.

It is not dead.

That gaze holds life, and a vast, unknowable wisdom.

Surrounding it are dark, coiled, tentacle-like limbs, making any sea monster wandering in the deep sea pale in comparison.

"I need more..."

It coldly utters the language of humanity.

A withered human face was revealed on the drooping tentacles.

A purplish-red, hazy fluorescent light spilled from the giant eye, revealing glimpses of a hellish scene.

...

Chapter Fifty-Nine: Superior Bait

On the empty campus path, Ye Xingluo led Ling Xiaowei carefully forward.

Saber was not with them at the moment, so he had to be constantly aware of any movement around him.

"rustle..."

The backpack behind Ye Xing made a restless sound, and the moment he stepped into the West District, the sealed tentacles seemed to come back to life.

"I...I'm coming in~"

Ye Xinglu looked at the deserted and desolate campus in front of her and said softly.

When dealing with intelligent beings, stealthy infiltration won't escape their notice... Instead of sneaking in, it's better to simply and directly tell them, "I'm here!"

In the previous life, when the survivors from the four regions of Nantong University gathered together, there were surprisingly few survivors in the western region. At first, it was thought that they were just unlucky and had many deaths, but now it seems that there is another reason.

I should have noticed this much earlier...

As Nightfall ventured deeper into the western district, the surroundings grew increasingly quiet. Even the roars of the void creatures became fainter, and the bloodstains and human corpses on the ground gradually diminished.

The survival experience that humanity had summarized with blood in the previous life immediately surfaced in Ye Xingluo's mind.

In the apocalypse, when you arrive in an unfamiliar place to rest, it's better to stay in a place inhabited by many void creatures than to choose a place that looks extremely quiet and safe.

Because... there's a very likely extremely terrifying creature lurking there.

So powerful that...ordinary void creatures simply cannot invade their territory.

Now it seems that was indeed the case.

Even Ling Xiaowei instinctively sensed something was wrong and tightened her grip on Ye Xingluo's small hand.

The eerie, silent atmosphere was far more terrifying than a direct attack from the void creatures.

The unknown... is often what humans fear most.

Gradually, Ye Xingluo arrived at the iconic building in the West District, in front of the open doors of the Nantong Library.

Based on what Ye Xinglu knew about it, that guy should really like places where the crystallization of human knowledge is gathered together.

"Aren't you going to make a move yet... You really have a lot of patience..." Ye Xinglu muttered. "As expected of you, then I'll... block up some more of my escape routes."

Without hesitation, Ye Xingluo pulled Ling Xiaowei inside.

As if sensing something, the door behind them slammed shut with a loud bang as the two stepped inside.

Ling Xiaowei couldn't help but exclaim in surprise... This kind of scene, which is similar to that in a horror movie, is truly terrifying when it happens in real life.

As if unaware, Ye Xingluo pulled Ling Xiaowei along, looking around the library in front of them... It was like a paradise untouched by the apocalypse, clean and tidy.

Except for the fact that not a single person appeared.

Ye Xinglu took a deep breath at that moment... The life-or-death gamble had begun.

His plan was actually very simple and straightforward.

It's about using yourself as bait to lure the guy lurking in the shadows to show himself.

As Star-Chosen Ones, they are far more delicious than ordinary people... making them excellent nourishment for Void creatures.

Night Star knew its wisdom and shrewdness well; as long as Saber, who could threaten it, remained hidden nearby, it would never show itself.

Since that's the case, Night Starfall decisively chose to take the risk... Using his frail body as a summoner to lure an opponent who could easily kill him, such a huge temptation was right in front of him, even it would definitely be tempted.

Especially now that it urgently needs to recover its body and requires a lot of nutrients.

However... with its intelligence, it could also realize that Nightfall wouldn't just come to deliver it so easily; there were risks involved, and it depended on whether the rewards were enough to make it take the risk.

Clearly, the combination of Ye Xingluo and Ling Xiaowei... made it unable to restrain itself.

Ye Xinglu's gaze swept over the dark figure that was flashing quickly in the corner of the bookshelf. Without hesitation, he pulled up Ling Xiaowei's panties and then hoisted her onto his shoulder.

This is also why Ye Xingluo brought Ling Xiaowei along.

Given that guy's cautious nature, he'll definitely test the waters first!

"call out!"

A sharp whistling sound suddenly echoed through the silent library.

It was a sneaky Void Servant, lurking in the shadows, launching a surprise attack the instant the night star passed by the bookshelf.

Ye Xingluo's steps suddenly halted, and facing the approaching shadow, she nimbly dodged to the side.

"Snapped!"

A deep pit appeared on the floor where Ye Xinglu had just stood.
