Fortunately, Zhan Yi changed to another entrance and arrived without any obstacles, and began his plan to dismember the zombie in front of him.
Shen Muyu, on the other hand, aimed at her target and waited for the right opportunity. Her mental energy couldn't withstand too much squandering, so she had to use it sparingly.
Finally, Zhan Yi chopped a hole in the head of the zombie that was blocking the way, and Shen Muyu fired a laser beam without hesitation.
With the support of his mental power, the laser beam pierced directly through Xiang Dong's head—well, half of his head. Through the slightly swaying light screen, Shen Muyu could even see a somewhat blurry vertical cross-sectional diagram of the brain's tissue distribution.
"Aaaaah! You've gone too far!!! I'll kill you sooner or later!" Although his head was gone, his vocal cords might still be intact? Xiang Dong roared.
Immediately afterwards, countless tiny worms surged up from his body, constantly forming new flesh and blood.
Without the roots heading east to replenish their strength, the zombies in front were easily cut into pieces and thrown aside.
Seeing that only Xiang Dong was still alive and kicking, Zhan kept pointing at him and used his "vegetable-chopping technique" to chop and pick at him.
"Hiss! This vitality." Even though he was chopped into pieces, the little insect was still relentlessly healing him.
"Zhan Yi, shave off all the tissue on this side of the light screen." Shen Muyu wanted to know what would happen after half of his body was separated from the light screen.
"No! Don't do this! You'll regret it. You won't be able to leave this space without me!" Before Zhan Yi could react, Xiang Dong shouted hoarsely.
"An organization? What is an organization?" Zhan Yi, holding his lightsaber, looked bewildered and completely ignored the crazed Xiang Dong.
"It's the body! That half-body!" Shen Muyu roared in exasperation, then sighed. It's alright, it's alright! Children need to be taught slowly, it's her fault too, wouldn't it be better to just keep it simple?
Zhan nodded, then carefully completed the cut from top to bottom along the light screen.
The pieces of meat that fell to the ground quickly shriveled up, and Shen Muyu took a look and found that the insects were all dead.
Even the zombies on the side were the same; all the supporting roots inside their bodies had withered and died, leaving only a thin layer of skin sticking to the ground.
Half of the body on the other side of the light screen also fell down, but after a while, the other half, Xiang Dong, hopped up on one leg while holding onto the light screen.
He glared resentfully at Zhan Yi, while his body continued to replenish itself.
Shen Muyu tried touching the light screen again, but still couldn't get through. Even the part that had just connected to the east had no flaws.
"What's that?" Shen Muyu saw a round object appear under the piece of meat facing east and immediately told Zhan Yi to pick it up.
boom!
Shen Muyu felt a moment of disorientation. The spiritual energy that had extended into the cave was severed. However, because he still had some strength left, he did not faint, but his eyes were somewhat glazed over.
"Zhan Yi! Where's Zhan Yi!" Shen Muyu shouted as he regained some consciousness.
"Yes, yes, Master." Little A was startled, but still replied immediately.
Shen Muyu blinked hard a few times, and as soon as she recovered from the dazed feeling, she looked outside and saw Zhan Yi running towards the car.
"Thank goodness." Shen Muyu breathed a sigh of relief. The dawn came so suddenly; she was really afraid that Zhan Yi would be left behind.
"It was my oversight." Shen Muyu felt a little guilty. She had actually forgotten how important it was that dawn was breaking. She didn't care about herself; her mental strength could be restored, but Zhan Yi couldn't.
"Here you go." Little A opened the door for Zhan Yi, and as soon as it got in the car, it handed the things in its hand to Shen Muyu.
"Are you alright?" Shen Muyu asked as she took the item.
"It's nothing." Zhan Yi didn't quite understand why Shen Muyu asked that.
"Zhan Yi appeared directly above the cave entrance right after dawn," Xiao A replied on Zhan Yi's behalf.
"That's good. I'm sorry, Zhan Yi." Shen Muyu patted Zhan Yi with some lingering fear, and seeing its calm expression, she didn't say anything more.
"What is this?" Shen Muyu scanned the round iron block in his hand with the light screen. It was quite heavy and had a good feel to it.
"Why does this light screen stop working once we enter this world?" The light screen remained completely still.
Since entering this game, it has been unreliable, unable to even detect the zombies' levels and abilities. If it weren't for Shen Muyu's special ability, he would probably be completely clueless.
Shen Muyu picked up the disc and looked at it. He saw two dots on it, one green and one red, which looked very similar to the star compass from before.
"Little A, can you read this?" Shen Muyu placed the disc on the platform that Little A had extended.
"Sorry, Master, I can't read it," Little A said after a long time.
"It's okay, try driving northwest." Shen Muyu could only guess, hoping that there might be a dot here that represented her.
The strange appearance of this disc might be related to leaving this space. Anyway, there's no other way for the time being, so let's go take a look.
Sure enough, after the car drove off for a while, the light spot moved, but it wasn't the bottom one that moved, but the top one.
"Xiao A, turn around and head northeast," Shen Muyu said immediately. Too much time had already been wasted; they needed to finish quickly.
