The superpowered people around her frowned. They understood because they had superpowers. Why would such a powerful person do such a useless thing? Superpowers were limited. In the apocalyptic era, every ounce of superpower could become a lifesaver. No one would waste it.
Was Su Shanshan wasting her time? Of course not.
Lying on the ground, Xing Yusen saw her unusual behavior. He, who had never encountered a level-five mental-powered zombie, stepped forward to help her. Su Shanshan could no longer move. She turned her head slightly and said harshly, “Step back.”
stunned by her coldness, Xing Yusen stood rooted to the ground for a moment.
The zombie walked towards Su Shanshan, step by step. Su Shanshan, who was stiff, could only watch helplessly. Then she smiled and formed an ice ball in her hand. The moment the ice ball appeared, the temperature dropped. People hugged their arms to warm themselves. She continued to form ice
balls. As the ground was starting to freeze, the zombie walked to her side.
The zombie did not take her ice balls seriously. In its absolute domain, no matter how powerful her ice balls were, they could not hit it. A hint of greed flashed across the zombie’s eyes, and it extended its fingers toward her neck.
At this moment, the zombie suddenly stopped moving. It was only one finger away from Su Shanshan but it could not advance any further.
The people could see the white frost slowly covering the zombie’s fingertips and spreading to its arms. Soon the ice covered its entire body. Only Su Shanshan could feel the effect of the ice thorns that were left in the zombie’s body just now. The cold air emitted by the ice balls drew out the ice thorns in
the zombie’s body which had begun to freeze slowly. It was time!
She smiled and said, “Break!”
The zombie’s body was instantly blown to pieces, and a sparkling white crystal core fell to the ground.
She had thought of this method in her previous life. In her previous life, mental power at level-five and above was invincible. Its absolute domain could not be broken after eight years of the apocalypse, and this was a method that she had thought of by accident. However, in her previous life, she did not
have any supernatural power, so she did not have the chance to test it. She did not expect this method to really be useful.
With the death of the zombie, she felt like a weight had been lifted off her shoulders. Su Shanshan moved her toes to ease the stiffness of her body. She walked forward and picked up the crystal core on the ground. After taking a look at it, she was very satisfied. She wondered what level Gu Jincheng’s
superpower was now. This crystal core was just nice for him to use.
She was thinking about Gu Jincheng and did not notice Xing Yusen approaching. Just as Xing Yusen’s hand was about to touch her, an ice spike was pressed against his neck.
stunned by the coldness of the ice blade around his neck, Xing Yusen raised his hands to his head to show that he had no ill intentions.
Su Shanshan’s eyes were cold as she moved the ice blade closer to him. “I don’t like it when people get too close to me,” she said coldly.
Xing Yusen tactfully took a few steps back before Su Shanshan put away the ice blade in her hand and turned to leave without looking at them.
“Please hold on,” Xing Yusen shouted hastily. He looked anxious. The mission this time was too difficult. There were more than 300 people who had set off together, and only about 100 people were left halfway through the journey. If this person could stay and help them, their chances of survival would be
much higher.
Unexpectedly, as if she did not hear him, Su Shanshan walked forward without looking back.
Awoman suddenly rushed out and stopped her. She reprimanded, “How can you leave? Can’t you see that there are so many of us here? You’re so capable, you should stay to protect us.”
“That’s right. It’s the end of the world. We humans should help each other,” a man hid himself behind the crowd and shouted.
With his support, the woman straightened her back and looked self-righteous. She was about to pull Su Shanshan closer.
A cold light flashed and an ice blade with a hint of coldness cut off a portion of the woman’s sleeve. She said coldly, “I’ve said it before. I don’t like others approaching me. It won’t be clothes next time.”
Xing Yusen’s expression was a little ugly. He glared at the woman, but he was also very exasperated. No matter who the other party was, protecting these people was his duty as a soldier…
