Chapter 48: Giant Tree

Just as Zhu Lin disappeared from there, countless vines stabbed at the place where she was standing just now. The woman looked around, but couldn’t find Zhu Lin. After letting out an angry scream, the woman melted and merged with the vines.

On the underground floor of the hospital, Zhu Lin and Tu Tu looked at the towering trees in front of them. In the middle of the tree, a naked young woman is trapped within the trunk.

"Master, she is coming."

As soon as Tu Tu finished speaking, the naked young woman, who was trapped in the tree trunk, opened her eyes. At the same time, Zhu Lin raised her sword and slashed towards the giant tree. With Bing Jian’s ice formation activated, countless ice spears shot out following Zhu Lin’s attack.

Stab! Stab! Stab!

When the ice spear pierced the giant tree and the naked young woman’s body, the place where the ice spear pierced froze and spread at an astonishing speed. Not long after, the entire giant tree and the naked young woman had been turned into ice sculptures before she could do anything.

Zhu Lin waited for a while, and was relieved when she sensed that neither the giant tree nor the woman had any devil energy left. After the enemy died, Bing Jian retracted the ice formation. Zhu Lin then walked towards the giant tree and dug out a green crystal nucleus from the center of the naked young woman’s forehead.

As soon as the crystal nucleus was dug out, the woman’s body and the giant tree withered at fast speed. In just a few minutes, the giant tree, the woman’s body, and all the vines covering the hospital building were reduced to ashes.

Holding the green crystal nucleus between her fingers, Zhu Lin looked at Tu Tu and said, "Judging from the size, this crystal nucleus should be at least a second rank crystal nucleus. It should be able to give you a little spiritual energy. Keep it for now. When we go to a safe place, you can absorb it."

Tu Tu’s eyes lit up as it said, [Thank you, Master.]

Looking at Tu Tu’s bright eyes, she chuckled then gave the green crystal nucleus to Tu Tu, sheathed her sword, and walked out from the underground. Thinking that there were no zombies or mutants around, Zhu Lin began to search the hospital carefully. Whenever she sees something useful, she puts them into a Qiankun bag.

After searching from the first floor to the top floor for an hour, she finally walked out of the hospital. As soon as she walked out of the hospital door, someone called her.

"Xiao Lin."

Xiu Wu stood in front of her, checked her from head to toe, and asked, "Xiao Lin, are you alright? Are you injured?"

Zhu Lin shook her head and said, "I’m fine. What about you?"

"I just used up my energy and needed a short rest." He said after making sure she is really fine.

After hearing what he said, Zhu Lin looked around but couldn’t find Ji Yang and Tan Wei, so she asked, "Where are Tan Wei and Ji Yang?"

"They went to find some supplies." Xiu Wu replied calmly.

Before Zhu Lin could ask more questions, Ji Yang and Tan Wei came back, followed by a group of soldiers. Looking at those soldiers, Xiu Wu frowned slightly. Seeing Xiu Wu frowning, Ji Yang smiled helplessly.

Before Ji Yang could speak, Xiu Wu asked, "Lao Yang, who are they?"

The soldiers could tell from Xiu Wu’s tone that he did not welcome them.

The captain nodded to Xiu Wu and said, "We are soldiers from the military base. When we went to the supermarket to collect supplies, we happened to meet your friend. Since you are going back to the base too, we asked your friend if he wanted to go back together, and he agreed."

After listening to the captain’s explanation, Xiu Wu raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at Ji Yang. Ji Yang knew that Xiu Wu was not happy, so he pulled him to the side.

He lowered his voice and said, "They said they were going back to the base and asked if they could join us. Since we are also going back to the base, I agreed to their request."

Xiu Wu glanced at those soldiers, then looked at Ji Yang and said, "You will not agree to their request without getting any benefits. Tell me, what did they promise you to let them join us?"

Ji Yang looked at him with a smile, and said, "They have three military vehicles, and they would let us ride with them as long as we helped them get out of this city. None of them were supernatural beings, and they were almost out of ammo."

After hearing Ji Yang’s answer, Xiu Wu thought for a while and said, "This deal is not bad. We really need to go back as soon as possible."

While the two of them were talking, the soldiers looked at Zhu Lin curiously. Although she is covered in dust and wearing a dirty dress, it cannot hide her beauty.

Furthermore, the death toll of women, children and the elderly after the end of the world is staggering. Even in a large and prosperous base area as the base in the capital city, the number of women is very small.

Compared with the number of men, the number of women is very small. Even an ordinary-looking woman will be fought over by countless men. Not to mention, she was the most beautiful woman they had ever seen in their lives.

When the soldiers observed Zhu Lin, Tan Wei noticed the soldiers’ gazes and stepped forward to block their gazes. Receiving his glare, the soldiers turned away in embarrassment. Not long after, Xiu Wu and Ji Yang came back after discussing for a while.

Xiu Wu looked at the captain and said, "My friend said that you have three military vehicles and are willing to let us ride together with you. Is that true?"
