But this time, she did not finish him in one strike. The blade cut deep, but not enough. Bai Li swung the sword a second time. This time, when the sword fell, the male zombie went still.
Bai Li looked at her right hand. As expected, one hand still could not kill a zombie in one go. But the difference between now and the first day was huge. Back then, she had struggled a lot more. Even the act of raising the sword had felt heavy. Now, the movement felt smooth and far more controlled. Besides, these two zombies were already wounded, and most of the foul smelling blood in their bodies had almost drained out. That was why there was less blood splashing around when she killed them now. Bai Li felt a bit relieved about that. She did not like getting zombie blood on her clothes or skin. Every time it happened, she could not help imagining all the ways things might go wrong if one careless splash landed on an open wound.
