Survival in the apocalypse, teammate Xia Shiyu at the start

Eriri's eyes narrowed instinctively, but she immediately met his gaze again: "I know!"

As a doujinshi artist, Eriri knows very well what her only asset is that can move men.

Her mother fell into the monster's clutches so that she could escape, and she was willing to give anything to save her mother!

In any case, if Shen Zhao hadn't come to her rescue, she would either be dead or kidnapped by those three men today.

Compared to that, sacrificing oneself to give one's mother a chance to be saved doesn't seem so hard to accept.

At least as the boyfriend of Xia Shizi, whom she secretly admired, Shen Zhaoyuan was far more acceptable to her than those three sleazy men.

She said firmly, "Anyway, you can do whatever you want to me as long as you save my mother!"

"Anything is okay?"

Shen Zhao raised a hand and stroked her chin, unable to help but exclaim, "You two, mother and daughter, are exactly alike!"

It's not just about body shape and appearance.

In the previous game, when Sayuri Sawamura came to him for help to protect her daughter, she offered the same conditions.

Even the way she speaks is very similar to Eriri's.

The girl with golden twin ponytails looked at the man nervously: "Will you agree?"

Despite being confident in her appearance, she was well aware that men preferred large breasts, and that she, like her mother, had a small bust.

Moreover, the other party already has Kasumigaoka Utaha, and is also in an ambiguous relationship with Busujima Saeko.

Those two women were just as beautiful as her, and their figures were even better.

Considering the enormous risks involved in rescuing her mother, Eriri was worried that the other party would refuse her conditions.

Little did she know that, for a man, if he has the ability, he should want it all.

Moreover, she and Sayuri Sawamura have the special advantage of being mother and daughter.

"I agreed!"

Shen Zhao pinched Ying Lili's chin and kissed her pink lips.

The girl instinctively wanted to dodge, but she held back.

After a moment, Shen Zhao looked up and said, "Thank you for the meal, Miss Eriri. It was delicious."

"You little rascal," Eriri wiped her mouth, "Now can you come with me to rescue Mom, okay?"

"can."

Even if the girl hadn't proposed the deal, out of consideration for the bond forged during those two times they rode horses together, he would have tried his best to rescue Mrs. Sawamura.

Not to mention there are still benefits to be gained now.

Shen Zhao is very interested in raising a female golden retriever as a pet.

“But I have one more question before we set off,” he said. “How can you be sure that Mrs. Sawamura was captured alive?”

Eriri bit her pink lips lightly: "I heard my mother's voice. She didn't scream, but kept telling me to run faster."

That doesn't seem like he was killed on the spot.

Whether she is still alive or not depends on that beautiful married woman's luck.

Shen Zhao said, "Let's go, let's go to the place where Mrs. Sawamura was taken away first."

Eriri clearly always missed her mother.

Although the surrounding area was shrouded in fog and nothing could be seen, she quickly brought Shen Zhao back to the scene of the incident.

"Wait."

Shen Zhao casually uttered two words and began to carefully examine the surroundings on his own.

He wouldn't miss any clue under the Force's perception.

Eriri stood there, pacing back and forth anxiously.

Finally, the man came back to her.

“Luckily, Mrs. Sawamura was indeed captured alive,” Shen Zhao said. “I can follow the tracks left by those monsters.”

Eriri said urgently, "Then let's hurry and catch up!"

"You're planning to come with me?"

Eriri's enhanced suit had already failed during her previous escape.

Not only did the battery run out of power, but the enhanced suit itself also suffered multiple damages, rendering it completely unusable.

This leaves the girl's safety without a strong guarantee.

Eriri answered without hesitation: "I'm going!"

Shen Zhao agreed: "Okay. Remember to stay close to me and don't leave my side for even a moment."

After all, now is the time when we need to race against time.

If we take the other person to a safe place to settle them first, it will take some time.

In addition, he now has electromagnetic control abilities, which has changed his combat style.

There's no need to get close to the enemy anymore; you can just stand behind and control the adamantium alloy blades to attack.

They have the capacity to protect Eriri.

"follow me."

Shen Zhao picked up Eriri and sped towards the edge of the town, following the monster's tracks and aura.

The girl with golden twin tails only heard the whistling of the wind in her ears.

The oncoming high-speed airflow made her ponytail fly wildly, and she couldn't open her eyes.

She simply buried her pretty face in the man's arms.

Listening to that strong heartbeat, she inexplicably felt a strong sense of security.

'Perhaps that's why that plump woman in black stockings fell for it.'

Eriri thought to herself.

Chapter Sixty-Seven: Urgent Tracking, The Fighting Monsters!

Shen Zhao carried Eriri and sped through the town.

Having been injected with a Class D enhancement drug and wearing an enhanced suit, carrying a petite girl posed no burden for him whatsoever.

He kept leaping high into the air, crossing more than ten meters before landing on the ground, and then leaping up again.

In this way, they left the town's residential area in just a few minutes and arrived at the foot of a mountain covered with a dense forest behind the town.

The Force issued a strong warning.

Clearly, the mountains and forests ahead have mostly become the nests of the Misty Alien.

Shen Zhao did not hesitate and sent out the Black Phantom to scout ahead.

He carried the girl with golden twin ponytails in a princess carry and followed behind.

He planned to start the search only on the outskirts of the mountains and forests.

If you can't find her, send Eriri back to the town and settle her in first, then venture deeper into the mountains yourself.

He has demi-human blood and is unafraid of death, but the girl in his arms is just an ordinary person.

If he couldn't find the mare, and the female dog he had finally gotten died at the monster's hands, then he would have suffered a huge loss.

The forest was silent.

Not even a single chirp of insects or a bird could be heard.

The eerie atmosphere made Eriri hold her breath, her small hands gripping the man's shirt.

Shen Zhao didn't have time to comfort her.

He concentrated all his energy and spread his Force perception.

While tracking the trail of the flesh-eating centipede larvae that had abducted Sayuri Sawamura, they remained highly vigilant about their surroundings.

The speed of travel was far slower than when we were in the town.

He walked slowly for about ten minutes until he found a battlefield in complete disarray.

Large tracts of trees were broken and felled, and the fresh soil that was turned up contained a large number of carnivorous centipede carapaces, leg remains, and foul-smelling slime of unknown composition.

It seems that a fierce battle between monsters took place here not long ago.

"The monsters that kidnapped your mother were attacked by other monsters, and it looks like they suffered heavy casualties."

Eriri paused for a moment, then asked anxiously, "Where's my mom?"

Shen Zhao said, "She shouldn't have had any trouble here. Let me look again to see if there are any traces of her."

There was no smell of human blood at the scene, so it seems that Mrs. Sawamura did not die in this monster melee.

He wandered around again, and his Force perception quickly made a discovery.

"Here, Mrs. Sawamura ran off in this direction."

Hearing the good news from the man, Eriri's face lit up with joy: "That's wonderful!"

Shen Zhao immediately poured cold water on her enthusiasm: "Don't be too happy yet. She ran in the wrong direction, heading deep into the mountains."

Eriri urged, "Then let's hurry and find Mom."

After a moment's hesitation, she leaned forward and kissed the man on the lips.

Then, blushing, she shrank back and whispered, "Um, thank you."

Shen Zhao said with a smile, "Miss Eriri, just don't forget your promise."

"No!" The girl with golden twin ponytails said in a slightly trembling voice, "As long as I can save my mother."

"Then let's go find her. Hopefully, Mrs. Sawamura hasn't been unlucky enough to step into the lair of some monsters."

Shen Zhao carried the girl and chased after Sayuri Sawamura, following in her footsteps as she fled.

After walking a few hundred meters, a series of violent hissing and shrieking sounds came from ahead.

Accompanied by the cracking sounds of tree trunks breaking and a dull thud.

It seemed as if some enormous creatures were locked in a fierce battle in the forest.

Shen Zhao put Eriri down and held up a finger to her, gesturing for her to be quiet.

He then took out his lightsaber, held it in his hand, and slowly moved forward.

They hadn't gone far when they vaguely saw a group of monsters fighting each other.

On one side was a familiar Mist-like Carnivorous Centipede, and on the other side was a group of giant crab-like monsters.

The latter was only the size of a manhole cover, and was insignificant in front of that enormous flesh-eating centipede that was nearly twenty meters long.

However, these crab monsters were numerous and lurked everywhere in the mist, surrounding the flesh-eating centipede.

Furthermore, they cooperated seamlessly and were fearless in the face of death.

Some crab monsters are responsible for frontal harassment, using themselves as bait to attract the attacks of the flesh-eating centipedes.

The remaining crab monsters swarmed in from all directions while the flesh-eating centipede was attacking.

Or it charges with its body covered in a hard shell.

Or they pounce on the flesh-eating centipede's body, hooking it with their sharp legs, tearing it apart with their mouthparts, and striking it with their sharp chelicerae.

"Fizz!"

The flesh-eating centipede frantically rolled and rubbed itself on the ground, scraping against the tree trunk, trying to get the crab monster hanging on its body off.

However, the sharp legs of these crab monsters pierced through its sturdy shell and inserted themselves into the flesh-eating centipede's body, at which point the barbs on its legs immediately sprang out.

Even after being crushed to death by the flesh-eating centipede's rolling motion, the corpse remained firmly hooked onto the enemy.

The crab monsters suffered heavy casualties but gained the upper hand.

If the battle continues, the flesh-eating centipede will eventually be worn down and killed.
