Seduce The Villainess (GL)-Chapter 161 Zombie Empress (92)
(Heurn Province- Fagong City)
(Outer District- St. Roxen Plaza)
"Hey, did you hear the rumors?" a thin frail man whispered to someone who was currently lying down on the ground.
The woman on the ground opened her eyes and looked at the man with a great deal of irritation in her gaze since he had woken her up.
St. Roxen Plaza was a currently being used as a refugee center by the military personnel who had been stationed in Fagong city.
For now, law and order had prevailed, and the military officers had executed anyone who disturbed the peace.
But as the supplies ran lower and lower… it was clear that eventually something had to give.
The frail man knew what would happen once supplies eventually ran out.
Chaos.
This was not the first time that he had attempted to join a base since his ability made it easy to slip in and out of trouble if necessary.
Plus, staying in bases helped him to gather information about the city. People came to the bases from all over which made it easy to find out the latest news.
For instance, there was a mutated zombie in the northeastern part of the city who had the ability to lower the nearby surrounding temperature to sub zero levels.
Or tales about the brutal bandits who roamed around the outskirts of the city fighting each other for control of more territory.
Stupid idiots… as if they could afford to weaken themselves with pointless infighting. The frail man sighed as a certain memory flashed across his mind.
He shook his head and turned his attention back to the woman who stared at him with a slight frown on her face.
"As I was saying… there have been whispers that someone has been cleaning up the brutal gangs and warlords in the city," the man leaned in closer and softly spoke.
"There have been witnesses who swear that the culprit is a plain woman in her mid to late twenties."
"A single woman?" the lady on the ground raised up her eyebrow in disbelief.
"Yes… no one knows what her ability is exactly, but she leaves no survivors whenever she decides to eliminate an organization," the man replied solemnly.
"And how accurate are these rumors?" the woman asked curiously.
The frail man simply shrugged his shoulders and the corners of his lips gradually curved upwards. He walked away from the woman and his body seemed to vanish into the shadows.
Some would dismiss such outlandish rumors, but the man knew that in these times anything was possible.

(Meanwhile a few kilometres away…)
"Please have mercy… I just watched! I couldn't stop him… IT WASN'T MY FAU…" a voice trailed off as a single shot echoed through the room.
Qin Lan coldly watched as the man's body slumped to the ground motionless with a small hole in the middle of his skull.
She stood in the middle of a store with dozens of bodies around her. These corpses belonged to mostly men but there were a few women as well.
This gang had terrorised the suburbs of the city and had intentionally lured survivors over to their base with false promises before brutalising them.
Qin Lan let out a heavy sigh as she retracted the black mental threads back into her mind. Her ability was getting stronger and stronger by the day.
The more she used it… the more addicted she felt to the pleasure that it provided.
It was a vicious cycle and one that Qin Lan was barely keeping a grip on.
You, okay?" Eve walked over from the other side of the room and gently touched her favourite human's shoulder.
"Yeah… my ability is just acting up… give me a second…" Qin Lan muttered as she stood on her tip toes and pressed her lips against Eve's.
She enjoyed the pleasant sensation of kissing her… well not girlfriend but… maybe lover?
Qin Lan furrowed her brows and just focused on the kiss. She still had yet to respond to Eve's confession because it never seemed like a good time.
The pair remained frozen in place for a few minutes before Qin Lan finally broke away. She giggled at the lovestruck expression on Eve's face and the unpleasant feeling in her heart vanished.
"Come let's rescue the survivors," Qin Lan gently spoke as she walked towards the back of the store.
There was a locked wooden door that led to the storage room. Qin Lan kicked it open and saw seven people huddled together on the ground with terrified expressions on their faces.
"They are dead," Qin Lan's cold voice echoed through the room. She glanced at trembling survivors and walked away.
The survivors did not seem to be outwardly harmed and in better circumstances Qin Lan would stay to comfort them, but she didn't have the time. fre𝑒𝘸𝚎𝚋n૦ѵℯl.c𝒐𝘮
They had one more gang to eliminate before the end of the night.
The survivors would eventually work up the courage to leave the room and there were enough supplies in the store to last them for a couple of days.
Qin Lan and Eve walked out of the store and headed for the car that was parked on the side of the road.
A few dozen zombies surrounded the car, and a young teenage girl could be seen fighting them off using two knives.
Eve's fingernails extended slowly until they became sharpened black claws. She stepped forward to join the fight, but a hand gripped her shoulder.
"Wait…" Qin Lan whispered as she carefully observed her student's movements. Liu Yifei had improved at a rate that was scarcely believable.
Her body was able to duck and weave through the crowd of zombies and whenever her hand flashed, another head would crash to the ground.
There was not a trace of panic on her face as she dealt with the zombies however her nose did wrinkle slightly when their blood and guts fell on her body.
Meanwhile one of the car windows was down and Qin Lan could see the end of a gun sticking out of the window.
Gong Li's aim was incredibly steady as she pulled the trigger and a bullet penetrate the skull of the zombie sneaking up behind her girlfriend.
The rapid improvement of the two girls over the last few days brought a small smile to Qin Lan's face.
She felt more confident in their ability to survive the end times should something happen to herself or Eve.
The only concern that Qin Lan had was that neither girl had yet to kill a human yet so she was a bit worried that they could freeze up at a crucial moment.
Maybe she should allow them to deal with the last gang that needed to be eliminated.
Qin Lan furrowed her brows since a part of her was uncomfortable with forcing two young girls to learn how to kill.
Today would be their last day in Fagong City and then it would only be a short thirteen-hour journey to the secret military base where Eve was created.
And where Subject 001 could be found…
