Chapter 297 - 294: The Almighty Big Shot

Chapter 297: Chapter 294: The Almighty Big Shot

Chen Xing went over and supported Chen Ming, helping him to a recovery bed.

She handed him a Crystal Core to replenish his superpower.

A zombie horde attack could be a minor issue or a major disaster.

If they didn’t deal with it quickly, the battle could drag on for a very long time.

That meant their superpowers were crucial, since they were saving lives, after all.

Seeing Chen Xing take such good care of Chen Ming, Situ Yuanyuan’s expression soured. "It’s just superpower exhaustion. Is it really that serious?"

"He’s a Seventh Level and he saved four people!" Chen Xing didn’t particularly want to antagonize her.

After all, she had already taken her revenge for what happened in her past life; her feud with Situ Yuanyuan was over.

So, she didn’t bring up the fact that Situ Yuanyuan, a Level Eight Superpower User, had only saved two people before coming down.

Who would have thought that Situ Yuanyuan, feeling guilty, would take it as an accusation for only saving two people? Her face grew even more unsightly. "I’m conserving my superpower to save more important people!"

The Superpower Users from the Song Family Army lying on the medical cots: "..."

Their expressions turned quite ugly.

’So, we’re the ones not worth saving?’

Chen Ming tugged on Chen Xing’s sleeve, signaling her to stop talking, lest she offend Situ Yuanyuan.

Even a Healing Ability User could be kicked out of the Song Family Army if Situ Yuanyuan was unhappy with them.

Chen Xing had no intention of arguing with her further anyway.

Wang Quan, a Level Six Superpower User, also retreated after saving three people.

Chen Xing immediately went up to take his place.

As a Level Nine Superpower User, she had been very low-key until now.

By the time she had saved the sixth person, it wasn’t just the other Superpower Users who were stunned—even the captain was astonished. "What Level is your Healing System?"

"Level Nine!" Chen Xing replied, then immediately went back to healing.

The captain and everyone else present: "..."

’A Level Nine Healing Ability User?’

’Apparently the first one in the entire world.’

’And she’s been so low-key?’

As for Situ Yuanyuan, her expression was indescribably foul.

"Thank you!" said the ninth person Chen Xing healed.

Chen Xing nodded.

She felt she could probably save one more person and was about to reach out to heal them.

But suddenly, Situ Yuanyuan shoved her aside and began healing an injured Superpower User herself.

At that exact moment, Song Yiguo happened to open the door and walk in.

Situ Yuanyuan, who had just energetically pushed Chen Xing aside, immediately put on an exhausted act. "Brother Yiguo, what are you doing here?"

Everyone: "..."

Chen Xing couldn’t be bothered to compete for his favor and decided to take the opportunity to rest.

So she went to an empty cot, lay down, and began to absorb a Crystal Core.

Song Yiguo, having just entered, was unaware of what had just happened inside.

He completely ignored Situ Yuanyuan and walked straight into the recovery room, stopping by Chen Xing’s bedside. "I heard you’re also an Earth Element Superpower User?"

Everyone: "..."

Situ Yuanyuan: "..." Her face was an absolute picture of mortification.

Chen Xing nodded.

"What Level?"

"Level Eight!"

Everyone: "..." ’Is she some kind of cheat character?’

Everyone went out of their way to care for Healing Ability Users, prioritizing them for Crystal Cores, all to raise their Levels.

Superpower Users of other types generally leveled up much more slowly.

You might be able to find a Seventh Level Earth Element Superpower User, maybe in the United States.

The captain’s jaw dropped.

’So... what has he been doing all this time?’

’Teasing a master for fun every day?’

He felt an overwhelming urge to slap himself.

"You’re not needed here for now. Come with me. We need to build walls outside to hold back the zombie horde!" Creating walls was best done by Gold Attribute Superpower Users, but there were too few of them in the safety zone. Left with no choice, Song Yiguo had consulted with the leaders of the other major families and decided to gather their Earth Element Superpower Users instead.

"My superpower is almost completely depleted. Give me half an hour!" Chen Xing said seriously as she began to absorb a Crystal Core.

Everyone: "..." ’Does she have to be so ridiculously amazing?’

’Recovering in just half an hour?’

And so, the medical staff and the wounded watched as Chen Xing, after just half an hour, walked out of the medical unit, full of energy once again.

Of course, no one knew that Chen Xing had secretly taken a sip from her spring.

Situ Yuanyuan glared at Chen Xing with hatred in her eyes.

She had worked so hard to heal Song Yiguo’s men, yet she hadn’t earned so much as a single glance from him.

’That despicable woman stole everything!’

Chen Xing, naturally, paid no attention to any of this.

If the National Capital Safety Zone fell, where would all these people go?

Since she was here for it, she would save who she could.

Vice General Du led Chen Xing through several blockade lines to the second line of defense.

Looking out from the city wall, the ground was swarming with zombies, so many that they stretched as far as the eye could see.

It was a mystery where so many zombies had come from.

Chen Xing immediately focused her mind, searching the zombie horde for a Spiritual Zombie.

Soon, she located the leader zombie hiding within the horde.

It was the one controlling the horde and directing its attack on the safety zone.

"If we don’t take out the leading Spiritual Zombie, the Capital City probably won’t hold!" Chen Xing said, not revealing that she herself had a Spiritual Ability.

"We’ve already sent our specialized Spiritual Ability Users to counter the Spiritual Zombie!" Vice General Du was surprised that a Healing Ability User would know about such things.

"What do you need me to do?"

"The second defensive line is about to break. Once the people in the residential area behind us have retreated, you Earth Element Superpower Users will coordinate with the Gold Attribute Superpower Users to build walls and delay the zombies’ advance!" Vice General Du said, pointing at the civilians retreating behind them. "It won’t stop the zombies, but it will buy these people some time!"

In that short time, zombies were already breaking through the main gate.

Vice General Du immediately led this group of Gold Attribute and Earth Element Superpower Users down from the wall, falling back to the third defensive line.

Although there were two more defensive lines behind them, they were essentially for show.

Once the third line was breached, the outer perimeter of the National Capital Safety Zone would be considered completely lost.

The vast number of survivors would undoubtedly become food for the zombies.

Chen Xing joined the other Superpower Users and went up onto the wall.

They watched as the second defensive line ahead was breached and the Superpower Users holding it swiftly fell back.

Meanwhile, the Defensive-type Superpower Users on Chen Xing’s side began using their abilities to erect a series of barrier walls behind the second defensive line.

The zombie horde was too numerous; the walls were toppled not long after they were built.

The earthen walls, in particular, were of little use.

Chen Xing glanced back at the survivors huddled behind the third defensive line. Most of them were the old, the weak, the sick, and the disabled.

There was nowhere left for them to retreat.

Chen Xing decided to switch to her Gold Attribute Superpower.

Her Gold Attribute Superpower was also at Level Eight. The massive iron walls she created were nearly impossible for the zombies to push over or climb.

So, while absorbing Crystal Cores, she unleashed her superpower, completely barricading the path outside the third defensive line.

"Whose Gold Attribute Superpower is such a High Level?" Vice General Du asked, having already noticed the effect.

But with so many Superpower Users present, he couldn’t tell who was creating the high-level iron walls.

"I think it’s her!" A Superpower User next to Chen Xing suddenly pointed at her.

He had noticed that every time she made a move, a thick iron wall would fall into place, blocking the zombies’ path.

Vice General Du: "..." ’An all-powerful master?!’

’A Level Nine Healing Ability, a Level Eight Earth Ability, and now a Level Eight Gold Attribute Superpower?’
