Shen Ke walked out of the room.
A dense crowd of people stood outside the room at that moment.
Shen Ke’s height was completely inadequate in front of this group.
Qu Xi and Wen Zhao both stepped forward and stood on either side of Shen Ke.
Qu Xi glanced at Wen Zhao with the corner of her eye, and a flash of killing intent passed by. Of course, she wanted to kill Wen Zhao, the person who had caused her death.
But the current situation wasn’t suitable for infighting. Although she didn’t know how Shen Ke had gotten this group to come help, the looks in their eyes showed that things weren’t looking good right now.
If it were just her alone, she definitely couldn’t protect Shen Ke.
Zhao Qinghe stared fixedly at Shen Ke and was the first to ask, “Shen Ke, has that woman woken up yet?”
Shen Ke’s gaze quickly swept around. Seeing everyone glaring covetously at her, Shen Ke pursed her lips. “She hasn’t woken up yet.”
“Zhao Qinghe, stop wasting words. Let’s just go in and snatch the person!”
“Yeah, it’s been two hours already. The healing-type ability user said there’s no major issue.”
Some people had already grown impatient and shouted clamorously.
Everyone had come here harboring hope.
All the people here wanted it faster, even faster—they couldn’t wait another quarter of an hour. They wanted to end the apocalypse.
Zhao Qinghe sighed and faced the crowd, raising her voice. “Everyone, what I said back then was ‘possibly.'”
“This news might not even be true. Everyone needs to prepare for the worst.”
Someone roared, “Damn it, I don’t care!”
“We’re already here!”
“We’ve obediently waited this long!”
Shen Ke nervously clenched her fingers, her brows furrowing deeply. “I said she hasn’t woken up, so she hasn’t!”
“What are you making a fuss about? You’re all such idiots! Can’t you understand human speech?!”
Those people clearly hadn’t expected this woman before them, who wasn’t very tall, to have such a big temper.
But then again, she seemed to be the newly appointed leader of Dawn Base, so she did have the right to yell. Still, she was a bit oblivious to the current situation.
“If I were you, I’d just kill this woman outright and take over as leader. Hahaha.”
Wen Zhao at the side gently hooked up the corner of her lips. Her body suddenly underwent beast transformation into a massive black snake. The snake’s body coiled around Shen Ke in a circle, then rose high behind her.
A black forked tongue stretched out from its mouth, and its golden vertical pupils were filled with terrifying killing intent.
Meanwhile, Qu Xi extended her hand, and a bolt of lightning mercilessly struck toward the person who had spoken.
That person barely dodged, but the ground beneath her feet had already turned into a charred, hardened block.
Qu Xi said coldly, “Your supernatural abilities have mostly been depleted just now. If you keep talking nonsense, I don’t mind leaving you all here.”
“If you think you can beat me with all of you together, feel free to try.”
In an instant, the entire space fell silent.
Their supernatural abilities had indeed been mostly depleted. They had thought that with so many people, they could easily take control.
But just that woman lying in the house had already caused a third of their side to die.
The rest of them were also running low on supernatural abilities.
After a while, Zhao Qinghe said gravely, “Shen Ke, we just want to end the apocalypse.”
“We don’t want to start a conflict.”
At that moment, the sound of a door lock clicking open came. Shen Ke froze and whipped her head around, only to see Wen Su standing there by the doorframe, her throat wrapped in gauze. The iron chains on her feet clinked with her movements.
Wen Su smiled mildly on her neck, her voice hoarse to the extreme. “I know how to end the apocalypse.”
“I can develop a purification agent that will restore zombies to normal.”
As soon as these words came out, everyone’s breathing stopped.
Intense, extreme joy covered everyone’s hearts.
But Shen Ke and the other two weren’t among them.
Shen Ke snapped back to her senses, gritted her teeth hard, and glared furiously at Wen Su. Originally, she had planned that if Wen Su really had a method, she would claim it for herself, become the hero of her own world, worshipped and loved by all.
She hadn’t expected Wen Su to speak up at this critical juncture. The iron chains she had put on Wen Su shouldn’t have been long enough for this.
Wen Su’s gaze fell on Shen Ke’s face, and her smile deepened. “But I have one condition. I hope the news you spread out is that Dawn Base’s leader, Shen Ke, created it.”
In an instant, joy tinged the corners of Shen Ke’s eyes and brows.
Wen Su watched fixedly, lowering her long lashes and smiling gently—truly gentle, from her expression to her eyes.
Wen Su murmured lowly, “So easy to understand.” Someone far more important than any experiment had entered her heart.
Perhaps what humans would ultimately evolve into was fascinating, but Shen Ke’s happiness was even more captivating.
In 2029, after lasting a year, the apocalypse finally ended.
Half a year ago, Dawn Base’s leader Shen Ke had developed a potion that could turn zombies back into normal humans.
From then on, ability users no longer hunted zombies but captured them instead.
Now, humanity had begun rebuilding their homes.
But with a third of humanity gone, the world had started reforming.
Countries became federations, and bases became districts.
Zombies hadn’t completely vanished—some always slipped through—but ordinary people no longer worried. Even if bitten, they could turn back.
In Dawn District, at the central square.
A massive cat statue had been erected in the center of the circular square.
And this cat statue was none other than the federation’s supreme leader, Shen Ke.
It was said that using her human form for the statue wouldn’t look good, so Leader Shen had requested her beast transformation form.
The post-apocalypse world was still too different.
Human supernatural abilities hadn’t disappeared. Towering vines reaching into the clouds, humans floating in the air, phoenixes formed of fierce flames… All sorts of fantastical scenes blended with modern architecture. Compared to surviving a great catastrophe, it was more like entering a magical era.
But Shen Ke had no mind to pay attention to the outside world’s changes.
Half a year ago, Wen Su had produced the purification agent, and those people had followed Wen Su’s request. Everyone believed she had made it.
The outcome was wonderful. The world was slowly recovering, and her prestige was steadily rising.
Until the federation was established, and she became the ruler.
She no longer had to go hungry every day, wear filthy clothes, and follow ability user squads to fight disgusting zombies.
Now, whatever she wanted to eat or have was proactively offered up.
She had set her sights on the meteorite early on, wanting to grow stronger and gain greater power.
But Wen Su had shattered the meteorite into worthless slag, so she couldn’t become powerful. Still, the result now was more or less what she had wanted.
Zombies were gradually being purified, and she was gradually elevated to a high position.
She hadn’t abandoned Wen Su and the other two, after all—they were too strong, and keeping them by her side meant constant protection.
She felt nothing toward Wen Su and Qu Xi, but toward Wen Zhao, Shen Ke always felt something was off.
Wen Zhao no longer appeared before her in the form of a child.
“You’re not focusing again.”
Qu Xi withdrew her wet fingers and pressed down on the base of Shen Ke’s tail.
Shen Ke turned her head to look behind her. “Qu Xi, what are you doing? Why’d you pull out?”
Qu Xi kissed the tip of Shen Ke’s tail. “You’re thinking about someone else again.”
Shen Ke’s cat ears on top of her head twitched. She directly kicked Qu Xi off the bed with one foot. “If you’re not going to do it, then get lost. I’ll go find someone else.”
As soon as these words fell, the room door suddenly opened, and Wen Zhao’s pale face, bearing a smile, appeared at the doorway.
Wen Zhao said lowly, “Ke Mama, it’s been half a year. Let me this time, okay?”
“I’ve been very obedient.” She sounded inexplicably aggrieved.
Shen Ke stood with her legs apart and looked over. After half a year, Wen Zhao’s features had opened up some, looking less and less like Wen Su.
Shen Ke furrowed her brows and glanced at Qu Xi, who had gotten up from the floor and was glaring angrily at her. Shen Ke hooked up the corner of her lips in a somewhat malicious smile. “Then you come today.”
Shen Ke acted all high and mighty, but Wen Zhao felt no displeasure—in fact, she was thrilled.
She rushed to the bed in three steps turned into one, eagerly pressing down on top.
A fierce kiss ruthlessly invaded Shen Ke’s mouth.
Qu Xi at the side was about to explode with rage. She wanted to kill Wen Zhao, but she had promised Shen Ke that from now on, she would get along peacefully with Wen Zhao and protect her together.
But who could tolerate this on the bed?
Shen Ke pushed Wen Zhao away and panted heavily. Her reddened eye corners carried a bit more seductive charm than before. “Little Ghost, what are you still doing here? Want to join in?” Shen Ke’s words were clearly a joke.
But Qu Xi just smiled coldly. “Sure.”
If she couldn’t monopolize Shen Ke, then she would prevent others from doing so either.
Qu Xi climbed onto the bed and hugged Shen Ke from behind, starting to peck kisses continuously on Shen Ke’s nape and shoulders.
Before Shen Ke could say anything, her lips were blocked by Wen Zhao.
The two sandwiched her in the middle.
…
Tears had been streaming from Shen Ke’s eyes from the start.
Snake tail and fingers, accompanied by tingling electric currents, kept making her eyes water.
Qu Xi even wanted to play with her cat tail.
Shen Ke couldn’t cry out loud—her lips were constantly being kissed.
Sometimes by Wen Zhao, sometimes by Qu Xi.
She was going crazy.
From now on, she absolutely had to refuse in time!!!
“Urgh, mmph,”
Shen Ke’s perspective shifted—from looking at the wall to looking at the ceiling.
She lay on a body covered in cold scales.
Qu Xi’s body was also cold.
From head to toe, only she was hot, inside and out.
“Ha, ah—”
Again.
The bed creaked noisily.
Shen Ke had originally closed her eyes, but she suddenly opened them again. A fuzzy, itchy sensation deeply transmitted.
Along with the cold snake tail and fingers.
“Wu wu wu, so, so weird.”
The electric currents didn’t disappear, persisting the whole time.
Shen Ke didn’t dare imagine how wide she had opened up.
She was carried in front of a mirror. Her eyes rolled upward nonstop, and from the mirror, Shen Ke saw her own expression.
Decadent, obscene, erotic.
Her chin rested on Qu Xi’s shoulder, and Wen Zhao’s face pressed on her shoulder.
The scene in the mirror was utterly lascivious.
Shen Ke didn’t know when she had fallen asleep, but when she woke, it was already dark.
“Shen Ke, I’m in a particularly bad mood today.”
Wen Su’s low, magnetic voice came from beside her ear.
Shen Ke looked over and met Wen Su’s smiling face, which held no emotion. Shen Ke yawned and realized her body felt neither limp nor painful. She asked, “Did you inject me with a potion?”
Wen Su nodded. “I came home and saw you lying on the bed covered in marks.” As she spoke, Wen Su reached out and pointed to Shen Ke’s chest. “Here…” Then she pointed lower. “And here, they’re all swollen.”
With that, Wen Su lowered her eyes. “Shen Ke, now it’s my turn.”
The people outside all thought she was one of Shen Ke’s bedmates.
Actually, it wasn’t that she accepted sharing Shen Ke—it was Shen Ke who had chosen her, along with Qu Xi and the others.
From the beginning, Shen Ke had been the dominant one emotionally.
When Shen Ke heard this, her legs couldn’t stop trembling. Back then, her legs had been spread so wide she felt they might never close again.
Shen Ke rolled over. “No.”
Wen Su’s fingers twitched slightly. The next second, Shen Ke added, “Rather than doing that, right now I want to go on a date with someone.”
Wen Su smiled. “Okay.”
How wonderful the word “date” was. She liked anything Shen Ke gave her.
Perhaps Shen Ke had only ever used her, but she would love her forever.
“Shen Ke, I love you.”
Wen Su didn’t expect Shen Ke to respond. She lowered her head and kissed Shen Ke’s cheek. “Sleep.”
Wen Su walked to the door. Just as she opened it, she heard a complaining voice from inside the room.
“Those two little ghosts aren’t as whiny as you—saying it eight hundred times a day!”
Wen Su blinked gently.
“I love you too, alright!”
Wen Su slowly broke into a smile. “Mm.” You love me too.
Shen Ke stayed in this world for a very long time—so long that she almost forgot it was a task world.
Until Wen Su and the others grew old and died. When Qu Xi slowly closed her eyes in her arms.
A loud prompt sounded in Shen Ke’s mind.
[Ding! Task: Obtain Hatred Value from Important Characters (Failed)]
[Tasker 56417 will detach in three minutes.]
Shen Ke: ……Go die, all of you!!!
