The Crazy Zombie Keeper and the Injured Yun Yao

"Che!"

"Master…"

"Brother Che!"

Everyone got shocked, especially Yun Yao. She almost got startled out of her wits. Hei Yu dashed to him at once. He expanded his black furry body and caught Yun Che in his mouth. Then he raised his head and swung Yun Che onto his back.

"Yun Che."

All of a sudden, Xing Feng got his skin metalized. He took a sharp leap towards Yun Che and sheltered him from the continuing fireballs from the zombie. He saw that Hei Yu had saved Yun Che, and his heart, having missed many beats, finally continued beating. Then he devoted himself into the revenge, sweeping away the coming fireballs. The guns in his hands showed up again, bullets whizzing and raining towards the zombie.

"Uncle…Uncle…"

Chen Chen crawled to Yun Che and whimpered, his chubby fingers wiping the blood on Yun Che's lips.

"Ahem…Ah…Don't worry. Uncle is fine."

Yun Che propped himself up on his elbow and coughed for a while. Then he wiped the blood off his lips, giving Chen Chen a weak smile.

"Uncle..Uncle…Uncle hurts…"

Chen Chen cried and threw himself into Yun Che's arms. He held Yun Che tightly and kept weeping. Before Yun Che could make any mollifying remarks, Yun Yao came to him, staggering and tottering. Leng Yehan and Zhan Yafei protected her along the road.

"Che! Che! Are you ok? Let me see…"

Hei Yu had expanded to its original size. Yun Yao could only lie beside him and looked up at Yun Che, tears welling up in her eyes. She had forced herself to be stronger and adapt to this damn life of doomsday, but she could not bear to see her son or her brother suffer.

"I'm okay. Just a very little wound."

Yun Che gave her a comforting smile, though his chest was being pierced by pain.

"Ok? You are bleeding!"

It was not Yun Yao but Hei Yu who was yelling. He sounded furious. Yun Che gave him a tap: "Enough. Don't make trouble."

"It's a very tiny wound. Why are you crying and yelling as if I am dead?"

"Am I making trouble? Am I? Why don't you just run away when you found them too strong? What if you die? If you die, I would have no master anymore. Tell you! Yun Che! If you dare to die, I will flog your corpse day and night. You will regret!"

"Haha…"

A laughter interrupted him. Zhan Yafei couldn't help but laugh. Yun Yao was both amused and saddened, her face still bearing signs of tears. Leng Yehan turned away straightforwardly to help Xing Feng fight against the zombie keeper.

"I am fine! Let me help them."

Yun Che laid Chen Chen down, and threw himself into the battle.

"Uncle!"

"Che!"

Yun Yao and Chen Chen worriedly shouted, but Yun Che couldn't hear them.

"Fine?"

Xing Feng's superfunction had reached level 2, but it was still hard for him to fight with a 3-level zombie alone. Besides, he had fought with two zombies at once before now. Therefore, he still got wounded despite being protected by his golden-system armor.

"I'm fine. This zombie must be a mutant of an owner of superfunction. If he were simply a 3-level zombie, he would not be able to use superfunction so skillfully. We have to kill it now, or it will make more troubles."

"Right."

That was exactly why Xing Feng decided to fight it frontally.

"It has much more superfunction than us. The battle must be a protracted one, but we shall end it as soon as possible. Go to help Yang Huaien. I will handle it."

"Are you sure?"

Xing Feng and Yun Che together could hardly draw with the zombie, not to say Yun Che himself alone. Xing Feng always trust Yun Che, but now…Besides, Yun Che had already got injured.

"I have no interest in being an unknown hero."

That was to say, Yun Che was very confident.

"Be careful!"

Xing Feng gazed deep into Che's eyes. Then he decisively withdrew from the battle. Leng Yehan and others were fighting the zombie keeper strenuously, who was weak but had many zombies to manipulate. The zombies were so many that Leng Yehan had run out of his energy and superfunction.

When Xing Feng joined them, the battle were much easier. His gold-system swords worked not worse than Yun Che's lightnings.

"Why are you here?"

Now Leng Yehan was not poker-faced anymore. On his face was complaint and grievance. He was worried about Yun Che's safety. He would spare no effort to protect Yun Cheng's families before Cheng recovered.

"I will hinder Yun Che if I stay there."

Xing Feng knew Yun Che. It was for this tacit that his superfunction got stimulated to a higher level now, although he was already exhausted. It was also for this tacit that he would live up to Che's expectations at any cost and kill the zombie keeper as soon as possible.

"Bang…"

"You deserve it!"

"Huh huh…"

Every time the zombies surrounding him got killed, the keeper would roar and gather more zombies around him. Xing Feng's superfunction almost dried up. He made a sharp turn and took out a rocket launcher. The zombies were bombed into pieces.

"Damn! Go! Kill them!"

Yang Huaien shouted and threw his last plastic grenade. Others were also roused. The size of the space they had were very limited. Although Xing Feng's space was much bigger, he had took out many weapons to collect more before he set off. Now he had taken out his last weapon, which greatly touched others and they all took out whatever they had.

All of them were summoning up all their strength to fight the zombies. No one noticed the zombie keeper had already fled away.

On the other side, Yun Che went bold when Xing Feng had left. His lightnings stretched into blue-and-silver thundering serpents, twisting off the flaming fireballs. The human and the zombie moved so fast that no one could saw them clearly. Only the dazzling sparks when the two collided with each other could be spotted. Yun Yao, who was watching them, now held Hei Yu's hair tight anxiously.

"Bang!"

All of a sudden, a shattered figure winged its way from the scene, and didn't stop until it smashed many zombies. Before others could identify who it was, a thick silver lightning fell to it.

"No! Yang Yang!"

"Boom!"

In an instant, one figure zoomed to the lying 3-level zombie and clung to it. The two rolled clear together to the side before the lightning fell on them. After a second, the thunder rumbled and the lightning flickered, then a huge pit appeared after the explosion. That was right where the zombie was one second ago. The zombies around were also destroyed into pulp.

"No, Yang Yang…Stay with me…"

It was the zombie keeper that saved the 3-level zombie from Yun Che's attack. Now he was lying at its feet, shouting and bawling.

"Fuck. Xing Feng, you said you would handle the keeper!"

Yun Che devoted all his left energy into the attack just now. He never expected it should fail. Now he knelt down on one knee, one hand over his chest and another holding his sword. The sword was thrust deep into the ground.

"How dare you hurt Yang Yang! How dare you! I will kill you all!"

The zombie keeper fixed Yun Che with a spooky stare and took out a knife.

"Damn. He is crazy."

He scratched his own arm, and the smell of blood filled the air, which whetted the zombie's desire. The zombie, heavily hurt by Yun Che, now regained consciousness and started worming.

"Eat me…Darling…Eat me and get strong and kill everyone!"

The zombie keeper held the zombie in his arms and grinned at it.

"Huh…"

The odor of the blood was irresistible. The zombie bit the keeper's neck and tore his flesh down. His aorta was opened and blood spewed out of it. Unbelievably, the keeper was still smiling. He was feeding himself to the zombie. He must be crazy.

"Huh huh…"

Other zombies were also stimulated. When the keeper was finished, they flocked to Yun Che and his companions.

"Hoo…"

Bodies of owners of superfunctions were extremely nutritious for zombies. The level-3 zombie got recovered soon. It threw away the keeper, whose shoulder was already swallowed. Then it charged towards Yun Che, its bloody claws sharp and shiny.

"Yun Che!"

"Che!"

Yun Che had drained his superfunction, and couldn't move at all. All his companions were screaming worriedly, but they were also trapped by zombies and could not help him.

"Che!"

"Clang!"

At this very moment, a giant column of water intercepted the zombie. Following the column was Yun Yao, and she clasped Yun Che in her arms. Meanwhile, the 3-level zombie shook off the water column and continued its attack. Its knife-like claws had already scored Yun Yao' back.

"Sister? Sister…"

Yun Che' face got spattered all over, with his sister's blood. His pitch-dark pupils dilated for a fleeting moment, and on his blood-soaked face was shock and distress. Numb with grief, Yun Che caught Yun Yao, who was falling as a leaf.

"Sister, wake up! Sister…"

His brother had already become a zombie. Now his sister…Would she also die?
