MTL - The Villainess Is Always Pretending to Be the Virgin Mary-Chapter 13

Gu Chi looked at her, and said after a while, "Today's situation is really weird."

"That…"

"At present, no one in the alliance has seen the specific appearance of the zombie leader. For now, Zhang Bin does not have the mutation symptoms of low-level zombies."

"..."

"However..." Gu Chi changed the subject, "I will pay more attention to Zhang Bin. I will not let the team take the risk until today's matter is investigated clearly."

Hearing this, a smile finally appeared on Chi Ying's face, and her pupils lit up, as if she had sprinkled the stars in the sky, glowing with fine light.

Gu Chi took a look and suddenly felt uncomfortable. He looks away.

"You go back first and keep a distance from him. Also, I hope you can keep it a secret from other team members."

Chi Ying's nose fluttered, but she didn't agree. She was a little worried, if she didn't tell other people, they would be unprepared...

"Don't worry, I will protect them."

As if seeing her worry, Gu Chi comforted her.

Chi Ying just nodded.

"Captain, what did you say with the girl?" Lu Yunfei smiled and gossiped seeing them leave for a while.

He didn't notice that the face of Song Shi beside him changed instantly, and he said to himself, "Why is it taking so long?"

Gu Chi glanced at Chi Ying beside him, and said, "Just chatted for a while."

In the end, he seemed to feel that his words were a little perfunctory, and he immediately added: "I met too many zombies today, and Chi Ying said she was afraid."

"..."

Chi Ying's eyes widened.

She didn't!

Song Shi sneered coldly in her heart, but still smiled gently on her face: "We are already used to this kind of life, and we didn't notice that you were afraid for a while. Also, seeing this kind of scene for the first time, you will inevitably be afraid, right? "

"Actually, I don't blame her, it's just that I was a little scared when I saw that group of zombies today!" Mu Yu said with some fear.

"Captain, what's going on here? I've never seen so many zombies besieging together before."

Gu Chi shook his head.

"It's hard for us to find the answer just by guessing here."

Chi Ying subconsciously looked at Gu Chi, and happened to meet his gaze, and both of them saw a clear look in each other's eyes.

"You stay here, I'm going to go out to see the situation." He suddenly turned his head and looked at Professor Lin who was sitting behind, "I want to take Zhang Bin with me, do you agree?"

Everyone looked at him in surprise, but there was a flash of cruelty on Zhang Bin's face at the back.

Did this man discover something?

Professor Lin rarely felt that his brain could not keep up with the thoughts of young people, and he wondered: "It is possible, but why did you bring him?"

Gu Chichi expected their reaction, and said lightly: "I suspect that those zombies may have undergone a second mutation. The only people in the team who understand this are Zhang Bin and you. I need to fully ensure your safety, so I can bring Among the people, there is only one option, Zhang Bin."

"Captain, I want to go with you." Lu Yunfei lazily said.

"Then I want it too!" Mu Yu immediately raised his hand.

The rest of the people also looked at him with firm eyes. The meaning of it is self-evident, they are all in the same team, and it is difficult to be together.

"Together?" Gu Chi's voice sank instantly, and he said very seriously: "With your current supernatural power, not only can't help you, but I even need to distract you to protect you. The situation outside is not optimistic, but With my ability level, it is not a problem to come back alive."

"Stay here to recover your powers." He said coldly.

Being criticized by him in such a tone, the rest of the people didn't dare to say anything for a while.

What Gu Chi said was right, they would become a burden to him if they followed him. It would be easier for Gu Chi to be alone with them.

Chi Ying watched them from the side, eating melons in silence. Gu Chi is a villain, so he will definitely not die so easily, she just stays here and waits for him to come back with peace of mind.

[That's probably not feasible. 】

Chi Ying: Huh?

【Do you know why Gu Chi is the biggest villain in the book? 】

Chi Ying shook her head in her heart, tentatively guessing, "Because he disagrees with the hero and heroine? Could it be that he is the kind of villain who will sacrifice other people for righteousness?

Many of the more likable villains seem to be of this type, not simply bad...

Based on her current impression of Gu Chi, he doesn't look like an extremely bad villain who is hated by many people.

【Not. 】

Chi Ying: What is that?

[Gu Chi was a very decent supporting role in the early stage. The reason why he is the villain is because he was accidentally bitten by a zombie when he was out on a mission in the middle and late stages of the story. 】

Chi Ying's eyes widened in disbelief.

[He did not become a low-level zombie, but mutated into a zombie leader with high IQ and resourcefulness... After he became the leader, he concealed his identity and directly relied on his status as a senior commander to enter the human alliance headquarters to lurk. 】

Chi Ying: Oh, okay.

[In the later period, he used the identity of "Gu Chi" to do a lot of things to destroy the male and female protagonists and human plans. It was not until the last moment of the story that the fact that Gu Chi had already mutated into a leader was discovered by the heroine, and it became the biggest reversal of the whole novel in one fell swoop. 】

Chi Ying: ...

Chi Ying: So you mean... Is it possible that Zhang Bin is the zombie that bit him?

[I don't know about this either, the book doesn't explain when Gu Chi was bitten. However, if you don't want Gu Chi to mutate into a zombie leader, I think you'd better go with him. Aren't you very strong? Certainly not to let him have such an accident. 】

Chi Ying thought for a moment, then weakly raised her hand, "I, I want to follow."

"..."

The corner of Gu Chi's mouth twitched. Why is this girl here to join in the fun?

"no."

Chi Ying stared at him without blinking, not afraid of his disagreement at all. She has a handle on her!

If she was left here, there was no guarantee that she would tell the truth to others. At that time, his teammates will definitely run out because they are worried about him.

Gu Chi looked at her for a few seconds, understood the threat in her eyes, and almost laughed out of anger.

He gritted his teeth lightly.

"Yunfei, give her a gun."

"Brother Gu! You want to take her with you? Why?"

"There are other uses."

"What's the use?" Song Shi asked.

Gu Chi glanced at her, but didn't answer.

How does he know what is the use? Add to the chaos?

Lu Yunfei quite agreed, and he said: "It's fine to take Chi Ying with you. The captain can protect her anyway, and this girl's luck value is super high. She will definitely bring the captain back safely if she keeps up."

"Superstition is out of the question." Mu Yu laughed, but didn't disagree.

After all, since Chi Ying came to their team, the image of her mascot has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

First, she found supplies in the supermarket where she was discovered, and then Gu Chi's ability broke through. Later, when base 36 was besieged by zombies, she was the first to discover Professor Lin and Zhang Bin.

Song Shi gritted her teeth and could only swallow the unwillingness in her heart.

Chi Ying sat listlessly in the back seat of the car, watching Gu Chi finish off the zombies surrounded downstairs one by one, but couldn't hold back a word.

Gu Chi took the time to look at the rearview mirror inside the car, he couldn't help but find it funny.

"You weren't so cowardly when you threatened me just now."

Chi Ying: "..."

"Why do you want to follow me out?"

Why?

"Just... want to follow. What if you are not prepared to be attacked from behind by zombies?"

Gu Chi said with a half-smile, "Then what's the use of following up? Can you help me kill zombies if I'm attacked?"

Chi Ying: "..."

She really can.

Gu Chi opened the car door, looked at Zhang Bin, the co-driver, and said, "Can you tell if they have secondary mutation symptoms?"

Zhang Bin shook his head.

"No, there is no obvious difference from the zombies I encountered before."

"Hmm... that would be weird. What do you think could be causing them to behave strangely?"

"...I-I don't know too well."

"As a laboratory researcher, you must have listened too much to the theory about the evolution of zombies published by the professor?"

Zhang Bin let out a "ho" roar from his throat, but it was quickly covered up by his coughing.

Gu Chi had already stepped out of the car, looked back at him, and said unhurriedly: "We didn't find any trace of the zombie leader in Laboratory No. 36 before."

"I think that these zombies attacked us so purposefully, it should be the leader's order."

"Yes Yes."

Gu Chi seemed to be really exploring the reason with him, with a focused expression.

"If this assumption is true, then we can't deal with thousands of zombies at all... The only way out is to find the leader. Will you accompany me down to see the situation?" he said.

"..."

Zhang Bin nodded with a dry smile.

Gu Chi turned back to Chi Ying and said, "I'll go out with him to see the situation, you stay in the car."

"…Oh."

…

Chi Ying sat in the car, exchanging information about the zombie leader with the system.

"How strong is the leader?"

【not sure. Like the hero Ye Wuhan, in the novel he is already an eighth-level supernatural being, but it took a lot of effort to deal with a zombie leader of Gu Chi's level. 】

Chi Ying blinked. Gu Chi's current ability level has just passed level seven... If he encounters that type, he will definitely not be able to fight.

"What about the lowest and weakest leader?"

[Even the weakest, a fourth-level supernatural power user like Lu Yunfei is no match for him. Level 5 can barely fight. 】

Chi Ying frowned.

It sounds like Gu Chi doesn't have a 100% chance of winning.

After a while, as if she had made up her mind, she stretched out her hand and opened the car door.

"Let's go and have a look."

In the deserted urban area, apart from hordes of zombie corpses and plaques and garbage scattered everywhere on the streets, there is no prosperity in the past.

The zombies that surrounded them before seemed to have disappeared suddenly.

Chi Ying followed the most dense "ho ho" sound of the zombie group. Along the way, there were zombies who had fallen to the ground and had their headshots shot everywhere. Occasionally, she could meet a few still alive, so she casually made up a few knives.

The further she went, the more uneasy she felt. Along the way, there are at least hundreds or even thousands of zombies pierced by ice blades.

In the past few days, Gu Chi hadn't recovered his powers properly, but now such a large amount of consumption...

"Ho Ho!"

The excited screams of zombies came from around the corner.

Chi Ying pursed her lips uneasily and quickened her pace.

…

When Chi Ying arrived, Gu Chi at the corner knelt on the ground with one knee, as if exhausted. The blood of the zombie stained his entire leg, and few parts of his arms and face could be called clean.

Zhang Bin was guarded at the back, while Gu Chi faced the hordes of zombies ahead.

Behind him, Zhang Bin stretched out his hand slowly. His fingertips were different from what Chi Ying usually saw, but the same gray-green color as ordinary zombies.

He almost touched the back of Gu Chi's neck.

Chi Ying's pupils shrank slightly. The eyes that were originally black and bright flashed a little bit of green light for an instant.

That's the wind.

Her body was suddenly wrapped in a circle of wind power, which rolled up the fragments of confetti and leaves around her, and the distance from nearly ten meters away from Gu Chi was shortened in an instant.

The next moment, her hand was already covering the back of Gu Chi's neck, and it was scratched by Zhang Bin's sharp fingertips, and beads of warm blood gushed out.

call…

She breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, it came in time.

【Host! ! 】

Chi Ying was taken aback by the system's roar. She didn't even notice that an ice blade pierced Zhang Bin's entire head the moment she blocked Gu Chi.

She replied to the system: What, what's wrong?

[Wuuuuuu, host, you are crazy, what if you get infected with the zombie virus and mutate into a zombie, what will you do, wuuuuuuu...]

Chi Ying: ...Pfft.

【Can you still laugh? 】

Chi Ying: You haven't played games, have you?

【…No. 】

Chi Ying smiled in her heart.

Chi Ying: Have you ever seen, which game's boss has no effect immunity?

Status immunity is standard for bosses!
