Transmigration: The Main Character is Not Becoming the Cannon Fodder!-Chapter 118 - 11: The Queen’s Return (11)

Li Shuning dug one after another, and luck was on her side; she unearthed five crystals.

After tidying up, everyone got in the car and resumed their journey.

They took turns driving, and as everyone was almost rested, Li Qing suddenly said something solemnly.

"Ningning, regardless of whether we encounter Li Shuyan in the future, don’t be polite with her. She’s no longer your sister, understand?"

Li Shuning was somewhat surprised: "Dad..."

Li Qing could only smile bitterly: "Dad has finally come to realize; we’ve gone through so much, almost died. Although it’s due to our own lack of strength, when Li Shuyan decided to hurt you, she didn’t care about so-called family ties. Ningning, with your temperament and abilities, you’ll surely develop well in the future. If you ever come across Li Shuyan, don’t hesitate, or it might be too late to regret being harmed by her, understand?"

"Dad, I understand."

Li Shuning also breathed a sigh of relief. She’s not the original owner; she’ll treat whoever treats her well with kindness, but if anyone wants to harm her, she won’t let them go.

She had thought before, what if one day both of them confronted each other, what would happen if Li Qing and Shen Yue prevented her from being an enemy to Li Shuyan. She didn’t expect Li Qing to say these words.

"Dad, your superpower is still at First Rank, why don’t you see if you can absorb these crystals?"

"Ningning, if these crystals really can enhance abilities, you should enhance yours first."

Li Shuning thought for a moment and said: "Dad, my ability is from the Space System. Honestly, when facing someone, my combat power isn’t enough. If your superpower is enhanced, it would benefit us all."

Li Qing didn’t refuse anymore and tried to absorb those crystals.

In the plot, Li Shuning knew that crystals from mutations are the best; zombie crystals contain a lot of impurities.

Furthermore, each stage of a superpower can only absorb one crystal; otherwise, there’s a risk of exploding and dying.

At this moment, Li Qing is at First Rank, so he can only absorb one crystal. If he doesn’t break through after absorbing it, he can’t absorb more.

Li Qing tried and indeed broke through, reaching Second Rank strength.

After the breakthrough, Li Shuning handed another crystal to Li Qing. After Li Qing absorbed it, he took another, but stopped suddenly.

Li Qing furrowed his brows and said, "I can’t absorb any more; I feel an instability within my body, as if something might happen."

Li Shuning had to admire Li Qing’s self-control.

Many people, once they have a way to enhance their strength, might continue even if they notice something wrong.

"Dad, let’s stop for now. Baijing County is almost here; we should prepare as there’ll probably still be zombies there."

Soon, they saw a boulder with blood-red writing on it: Baijing County.

There’s only one road leading to Baijing County.

However, looking at those three blood-red characters, Li Shuning felt inexplicably chilled.

The car drove forward, yet the whole road was silent. Even inside the county, it remained eerily quiet, not a single zombie in sight; what was going on?

The more abnormal the situation, the more vigilant the three became.

Li Shuning and Shen Yue held weapons, and Li Qing was in peak condition, ready to act at any moment.

As they walked, they saw a large building in the county—a sports stadium.

And at this moment, there seemed to be some commotion inside the stadium.

Li Shuning put the car away, and the three carefully walked over to take a look.

They were stunned to see countless living people sitting on the floor of the stadium.

Among these people, there were mostly the elderly, women, and children, but also some strong adults. They sat on the floor, eating, making the scene feel somewhat unreal.

Soon, some people noticed Li Shuning and the others.

A young man anxiously approached: "Who are you? How did you get here? Hey, you can’t leave now; you’re out of luck. Why would you even come to this place?"

The man inexplicably finished speaking and went back.

At first, the others glanced at the three and then behaved as if they saw nothing, with eyes full of numbness, continuing to eat their own food.

Li Shuning only felt a chill running down her spine as her spiritual power sensed two powerful presences rapidly approaching.

"Dad! Mom! Run!" Li Shuning screamed, grabbing their hands and sprinting away.

But before they could retrieve the car, suddenly, a six or seven-year-old child and a woman appeared before them.

A closer look revealed that they were actually zombies.

However, their appearance was entirely different from those zombies—just like ordinary people. Only upon careful inspection did one notice their slightly stiff movements and bluish-purple lips.

That little boy giggled, and an information appeared in their minds: "Play with me! Why are you running? Play with me; I want you to play with me."

That little boy was evidently a Spiritual zombie.

Moreover, the boy’s spiritual rank was clearly not low.

The most terrifying one, however, was that young woman.

Looking at their hand-holding posture, it’s highly likely they were mother and son.

Earlier, they appeared in front of them out of thin air, indicating that the woman might be a Space System zombie.

The woman’s movements were graceful, yet her voice was sharp and monotonous: "Why do you want to leave? Stay here; I’ll give you good food, and you can survive."

Li Qing attempted to break through but inexplicably collided with something, fell to the ground, and coughed up blood.

Li Shuning stepped forward to help Li Qing up, leading Shen Yue back into the stadium.

As expected, the woman and child didn’t follow them further.

Li Shuning fell into deep thought; just who were these mother and son? It’s important to know that the world’s mutation has occurred for only a week, and there are already High Rank zombies?

She tried hard to recall every bit of the plot.

Suddenly, Li Shuning covered her mouth; she remembered.

These mother and son, as the plot progressed, became an extraordinary presence; she hadn’t expected them to appear here.

Reportedly, someone had investigated that, before transforming into a zombie, the young woman was a rich young lady, her family holding certain status in Lin City.

Miss Zhou was the sole child of the Zhou Family; she married her college classmate, had him enter into her family, and gave birth to a child.

It was said that the man was entirely submissive to Miss Zhou, following her orders in everything.

Miss Zhou believed she had found a good match, little realizing she had married a white-eyed wolf.

Upon the world’s mutation, the whole Zhou Family was on a trip, vacationing in Immortal Village.

Immortal Village isn’t far from Baijing County.

Unexpectedly, the world changed; Miss Zhou’s husband awakened superpowers while Miss Zhou and others remained ordinary people.
