"Ding, please host enter the space quickly!"
"Ding, please host enter the space quickly!"
If she didn't enter the space to repair soon, she would truly turn into a zombie.
Xu Qian's face turned pale. She gently touched his bloodless, handsome face with her fingertips.
"It's okay, don't blame yourself. I... really like you."
"Really like you."
Song Xiaoping instantly broke down. He wanted to cry but couldn't shed a single tear.
His heart felt like a gaping hole, and he couldn't breathe.
He finally understood what romantic love was.
"Ding, Xiao Ping's favorability +10, total favorability is 90. Congratulations, host, for completing the third mission objective."
Before the system finished its reminder, Xu Qian vanished, entering the space.
The weight in his hands disappeared, and Song Xiaoping froze, roaring, "Xu Qian!! Xu Qian!!"
Far away at the Light Base, Tong Wu opened his eyes. The Buddhist beads in his hand fell to the ground.
They made a "snap" sound.
A deeply mournful smile played on his lips.
"In the end, I couldn't avoid it."
Xu Qian floated in the space like a wandering soul, just like the first time she died and was reborn.
Her naked body was submerged in the mermaid pool, with Buddhist beads and talismans floating on the surface of the water.
Xu Qian sighed. The tribulation Master Tong Wu had spoken of might be this.
Song Xiaoping's conquest mission was complete, a mix of joy and sorrow.
The price was too high.
"System, how can my body be repaired?"
"Ding, the system can help the host clear half of the zombie virus, but your essence is still that of a zombie."
Xu Qian narrowed her eyes slightly and asked, "I don't quite understand what you mean."
"Ding, after the repair is complete, your body will be in a half-zombie, half-human state. You will possess the instincts of a zombie, human body temperature or zombie body temperature, and human instincts."
Xu Qian: ...
Is this good or bad?
Does she have to have a crystal core in her head and another in her chest, like Wang Xingde?
"Ding, yes, there are advantages and disadvantages. The host can consider it for yourself."
"Ding, during the repair period, the system will undergo an upgrade, which will take approximately one month."
It seemed to be a major upgrade.
Xu Qian raised her hand and pressed her glabella, finding no sensation.
Fine, she had forgotten she had become a ghost.
"System, how long will the repair take?"
Hopefully, it wouldn't be a year like last time.
That would be too long. It was already over three years into the apocalypse, and another year would make it four years. There were still three men.
Not enough time.
"Ding, host, approximately one month."
Xu Qian breathed a sigh of relief. One month was acceptable.
Suddenly, a mermaid emerged from the upper part of the pool. She looked at her naked body on the shore with confusion.
The mermaid was even more beautiful than the last time Xu Qian had seen her. Her brown hair was smooth, her skin fairer, her features deeper, and her raised tail scales shimmered.
She was incredibly beautiful.
Could this pool also have beautifying effects?
"What is your name?"
The mermaid looked up and saw a semi-transparent figure floating in the air.
Her eyes widened, and she was so frightened that she quickly dived back into the water.
Help! Why did she see a ghost as soon as she woke up?
Xu Qian: ...
Soon, she swam up again, her eyes fixed on Xu Qian.
"Are you, Xu Qian?"
Xu Qian nodded helplessly.
The mermaid frowned and asked, "Why have you become like this?"
"I've turned into a zombie and need to be repaired."
The mermaid nodded thoughtfully, asking no further questions.
Xu Qian: "What is your name?"
The mermaid smiled, "My name is Fia. Thank you, Xu Qian, thank you for saving me."
Xu Qian's brows softened. Finally, there was something to be happy about.
