Zombie Apocalypse: Reborn With A Farming Space-Chapter 177: A Deal ( 1 )

The shadow clone walked toward the corpse, stirred the zombie's brain, retrieved a small transparent crystal about the size of a thumbnail, and handed it to Jian Ziqin before merging with the shadow beneath his feet.

Seeing that the zombie was finally killed, Lin Fei finally let out a breath of relief and slumped to the ground. At this point, he didn't care how dirty his clothes were. He just wanted to lie there and take a break.

Just after he pocketed the crystal core, his arm was pulled by his sister.

Jian Huan checked her brother from head to toe and let out a sigh of relief when she found no wounds on his body.

She glared at him and said, "Jian Ziqin, what do you think you were doing just now? Are you tired of living and looking for death?!"

Noticing the worry and anger in his sister's eyes, Jian Ziqin didn't dare to reply and lowered his head. Whenever he used this trick, he would be able to brush off his sister's anger and scolding. Unfortunately, it was no use this time.

Jian Huan was angry because of her worry. In this world, her brother was the only family she had. As for those relatives, she never counted them as family. What kind of family would sell their daughter to an old man?

"Sister, I'm sorry. Next time, I will be more careful," Jian Ziqin admitted softly.

Hearing this, Jian Huan widened her eyes and asked, "You still want there to be a next time?"

Although both of them knew it was impossible to stay safe in their current situation and that they would have to face dangerous times, Jian Huan was still unwilling to see her brother act so recklessly.

"Sister, I'm sorry."

Since her brother had already apologized, Jian Huan also stopped scolding him. Now that the worry and fear in her heart had settled, she turned and glared at the person who caused this situation.

She walked toward Lin Fei, who was lying on the ground, in large strides. When she was two steps away from him, she asked, "Who are you? Why did you lure the zombie toward us?"

When he heard this, Lin Fei turned to look at her and noticed the wariness, anger, and murderous intent in the woman's eyes.

After a short break, he felt much better. Pushing himself up, he sat on the ground and replied helplessly, "Sister, I'm sorry for pulling you and your friend into this situation. But I really had no intention of harming either of you."

Hearing his words, Jian Huan didn't believe him at all. If he had no intention of involving them, why did he come their way?

Seeing her disbelief, Lin Fei stood up and said, "Sister, I'm grateful for your help, but this zombie has been chasing me for hours. I really didn't have the energy left to run or lead it in another direction."

Before Jian Huan could ask, Jian Ziqin walked over and asked, "Brother, why was this zombie chasing you?"

Lin Fei also wanted to know the answer but had no one to ask. He could only shake his head and reply, "I have no idea either."

He knew that if he didn't explain, these two would never let him stay with them. So, he continued, "At dawn, a group of zombies suddenly surrounded the gas station where I and the rest of the survivors were staying."

"The soldiers who came with us had no way to kill them all, so some ability users, including me, decided to help. Since I'm not good with close combat, I decided to throw stones at the zombies."

"Why did you throw stones? Can you even deal any damage with that?" Jian Huan asked.

Hearing this, Lin Fei bent down and picked up a stone. Then, he threw it toward a roadblock.

Crack!

The moment the stone hit the roadblock, it shattered instantly.

Seeing this, both Jian Huan and Jian Ziqin were stunned. The way they looked at him changed instantly.

"Sister, Brother, to be honest, my ability is kind of useless. I awakened a speed-type ability. Except for luring away zombies or escaping, my ability has no use at all in battle," he added with a sigh.

When they heard this, the Jian siblings looked at each other.

Although speed-type abilities were limited, as long as he had awakened an ability, his five senses, strength, and stamina would have increased. He could still kill zombies more easily than ordinary people.

"What happened to the people in the gas station after you left?" Jian Huan asked.

Lin Fei shook his head, pointed at the zombie's corpse not far from them, and replied, "I don't know, but most of the zombies followed that one and chased after me. Fortunately, I was able to shake off the rest—only this one was so stubborn and kept chasing me."

After they heard his words, Jian Ziqin pulled his sister a few meters away from Lin Fei and said, "Sister, how about we let him stay with us? It's hard for the two of us to travel to Jiangning City. But if he joins us, he could help us in emergencies."

"Ziqin, even if he can help us, his ability is speed. It's better not to trust him too much," Jian Huan said with a frown.

Jian Ziqin glanced at Lin Fei and explained in a low voice, "Sister, even if he can't kill the zombies, he can lure them away. With his speed, he will be able to lead them away and shake them off before rejoining us."

When she heard this, Jian Huan looked at her brother with wide eyes and asked with a hint of anger, "Ziqin, are you planning to use him as bait? Don't you know how dangerous that is?"

"Both of us were used as bait by those people, and you know it yourself the helpless and devastating feeling. How can you do the same thing as them and treat a human's life so lightly?" she added.
