The Vicious Female Character at the End of Days: C14.2

Hey, first of all, thanks for reading my lousy Machine Translation. To be honest, I’d really like it if you guys corrected the mistakes I made. But please speak nicely and politely. My heart is not strong enough to read your too-harsh comments. Have a nice day. 🙂

Chapter 14. (2/2)

Bai Qing Qing immediately took out a gas mask and distributed one to everyone. Shen Mingxuan snatched the mask and rushed towards Bai Tian Tian.

However, Bai Tian Tian, who was closest to the wisteria tree, was entangled by the branches and suddenly flew into the air. “Help! Help me—”

The Clan Chief, not expecting them to attack the wisteria tree, roared angrily, “Kill them!”

The change happened in an instant. A flower-like substance floated in the air. The villagers clutched their throats, their faces flushed, coughing violently, veins bulging on their necks and faces.

The unprecedentedly terrifying scene frightened people into running in all directions, then one after another collapsed to the ground.

Fortunately, Shen Mingxuan was fast enough to cut the wisteria, catch Bai Tian Tian, and put a safety mask on her, shielding her from the flying flower particles.

The Clan Chief suddenly transformed into a monster, its body splintering into vine-like tentacles. Its grotesque form resembled a writhing spider, and it raised its scythe-like forelimbs, piercing through a person’s body, blood splattering everywhere.

“Aaaaaahhhhhh—” Screams erupted.

The mutated creature suddenly pounced on the dodging Sister Hong, biting her neck and tearing at it. Sister Hong frantically pushed and kicked, but was held down, her neck bitten off, convulsing for a moment before going still.

“Awang!” Amei cried out in terror, “Watch out!”

Bai Qing Qing looked over, immediately pulling out a gun from her spatial storage, aiming it sharply at the monster’s head, and firing a single shot that killed it.

This sharp and accurate shot drew the attention of several people.

A monster lunged at Bai Qing Qing. Seeing she had no time to react, Fu Chen’s strong arm wrapped around her waist, spinning her away, and simultaneously striking the monster with lightning-based power.

Bai Qing Qing called out to Awang and Amei, who hadn’t managed to escape, “Quickly find a place to hide! Don’t get scratched or bitten, it’ll get infected!”

Awang and Amei, having experienced fleeing before, quickly calmed down after their initial panic and fled.

Only Cheng Rui’s fire-based abilities and Fu Chen’s lightning-based abilities could deal with this mutated plant, the wisteria tree. Even with Liang Zhiyu and Cheng Rui attacking together, they couldn’t kill it.

Bai Qing Qing naturally didn’t want to be a hindrance; dealing with the mutated wisteria was the most important thing. She pushed Fu Chen away, “Brother, go help Cheng Rui, I can manage on my own.”

The monster that the Clan Chief had transformed into had already killed many people. Shen Mingxuan, with Bai Tian Tian, was constantly dodging the monster’s pursuit, and the sacrificial site was in complete chaos.

Bai Qing Qing felt that her previous headshot was purely by luck. Close combat with melee weapons was more comfortable. She took out her forged Tang sword again and, as if slicing a watermelon, took down several monsters.

The mutated wisteria was likely a Tier 3 plant. Cheng Rui and Fu Chen worked together to destroy its source and extract its crystal core.

The remaining infected were easy to deal with. As a survivor team, they cleared the area except for a few stray mutants. Blood stained the grass, and corpses littered the ground.

Shen Mingxuan disdainfully tossed the spider-like monster that the clan leader had transformed after killing it. Bai Tian Tian, already weak from exhaustion, only managed to stay upright by leaning on Shen Mingxuan.

Fu Chen held the pale purple plant crystal core. He suddenly remembered the vines he had killed in the forest earlier; he wondered if they had any crystal cores.

Bai Qing Qing washed her Tang sword and stored it in her spatial storage. She walked up to Fu Chen, her eyes fixed on the wisteria crystal core with longing. If she got it, she could advance to Tier 2.

Seeing her gaze fixed on the plant crystal core, Fu Chen asked, “You want it?”

“No,” Bai Qing Qing replied, contradicting herself.

This plant crystal core belonged to Fu Chen, Cheng Rui, and Liang Zhiyu; she couldn’t just take it whenever she wanted.

Fu Chen looked at Cheng Rui and Liang Zhiyu and asked, “Can we give her this plant crystal core? I’ll trade you other crystal cores for it.”

Cheng Rui said, “I don’t need it, give it to her.”

Liang Zhiyu had no objection, jokingly saying, “Captain, I didn’t realize you were so fond of your little sister.”

Fu Chen smiled slightly and said, “Of course, a little sister is meant to be pampered.”

Bai Tian Tian watched the scene of laughter and conversation, biting her lip, a wave of loss washing over her. Those gazes had once belonged to her.

“Thank you,” Bai Qing Qing said happily, accepting the crystal core.

After the Sacred Tree incident, the village’s population dwindled by more than half. The Clan Chief was dead, and the children imprisoned in the cellar had all returned home.

Just as one wave subsided, another arose. Awang had collapsed with a high fever and remained unconscious. The villagers, unsure if he would turn into a zombie, were saying they should kill him or drive him out of Zhou Village.
