Finally Got a Boyfriend Today

"You just had to go and make that flag, didn't you? Now look what's happened..."

Ji Mengyao turned around, watching The Glutton's movements, and muttered a complaint to Wu Di.

"My dear sister, is this really the time to be talking about that?!"

Wu Di was also cursing his own mouth, as the flag had come back to bite him almost immediately.

"I'll hold off this one in front."

Wu Di knew that this slow-moving, dark-circled strange zombie was far more difficult to deal with than The Glutton.

"Okay."

Ji Mengyao didn't have time to be polite with him. Wu Di's combat abilities had always been stronger than hers.

There was no turning back now; they had to fight.

Wu Di didn't rush forward. His current task was to hold off this dark-circled zombie until Ji Mengyao finished off The Glutton and came to help him.

Ji Mengyao wasn't hesitant anymore because she knew that if she wanted to kill The Glutton alone, there was only one way.

It was also her most proficient fighting style—trading her life for the enemy's.

The injured The Glutton, which had been knocked away earlier, was observing the situation from a distance, slowly recovering from its wounds.

Ji Mengyao knew she had to quickly deal with the intact The Glutton if she wanted to break the deadlock.

So when it charged at her, Ji Mengyao didn't dodge but instead took its claws head-on and then delivered a heavy blow to its head with her fire ax.

This strike was very effective. Although her arm and left chest were torn open by the claws, she didn't even flinch, as she couldn't feel pain.

Last time when fighting The Greedy One, her combat abilities were still quite average. But after several missions, especially after killing that Mid-tier Zombie with Ning Yu.

With the Mid-tier Serum enhancement, her physical strength and combat abilities had improved significantly.

The Glutton's ferocity also surged. Seeing its attack succeed, it naturally wouldn't retreat.

The two exchanged blows, but Ji Mengyao was the first to fall.

However, just as The Glutton thought it had won and was about to start devouring Ji Mengyao's body, she suddenly sprang back to life.

With a swift swing of her ax, she delivered a heavy blow to its chest.

She took off her baseball cap, tossed it aside, not wanting to ruin this hat, as she had lost too many recently.

Ji Mengyao said fiercely through gritted teeth:

"I have infinite lives, and you only have one. How can you compete with me?"

And with that, she attacked again.

The Glutton had never seen a human who could rise again after falling. All humans it had encountered remained motionless and slowly cooled after death.

But this girl in front of it had just fallen and then stood up again, which was beyond its understanding.

The Glutton was very troubled by this fearless fighting style. Every time it tried to escape to recover, Ji Mengyao would drag it back.

She was very familiar with The Glutton's fighting habits of fleeing to regain some strength and then returning to battle.

Moreover, Ji Mengyao discovered a problem: after this resurrection, the damage she inflicted on The Glutton seemed more pronounced.

It seemed that her ability, Death Resistance, had evolved.

She didn't feel her physical strength increase with each resurrection, but she could inflict more damage on the same enemy.

It was a feeling of "the more times you kill me, the harder I hit you."

This discovery made her happy because it meant that her continuous deaths were no longer just a matter of quantity but would make her increasingly lethal.

Until she defeated her opponent.

On the other side, Wu Di was much more cautious because the dark-circled zombie in front of him, although its attack movements were very obvious.

Its actions were also very casual, as if it was just playing with Wu Di.

But once he was hit, the affected part would feel weak and numb. He had already been hit once at the beginning.

This made him flee very awkwardly, almost forcing him to use that explosive ability.

He glanced at Ji Mengyao's situation and understood that as long as he could temporarily hold off this slow-moving zombie, once Ji Mengyao finished her fight.

They could either kite this slow-moving zombie together or simply find a way to escape.

So he just kept circling around it, focusing on dodging, and occasionally throwing out a punch or two, mostly as feints.

Ji Mengyao was pierced through the heart by The Glutton for the second time, but before she died, she firmly grasped The Glutton's body, not giving it a chance to escape and recover.

So after she resurrected, her fire ax swung high again, landing a heavy blow on its head.

This time, the damage she inflicted seemed even higher, opening a large gash on its head.

She didn't hesitate and continued to follow up with strikes, almost chopping The Glutton's head to pieces, although its weak point wasn't its head.

At such a close distance facing a disgusting man-eating monster, Ji Mengyao showed no fear. Perhaps someone born without the sense of pain didn't understand what fear was.

No one knew if this was a blessing or a curse, only she herself knew.

The two wrestled fiercely, and The Glutton's sharp teeth bit Ji Mengyao several times.

But no matter what kind of attack it made, it only became more and more shocked and fearful. Compared to itself, the human in front of it might be more aptly called a monster.

Ji Mengyao's repeated deaths finally paid off on her sixth resurrection. The multiple resurrections had strengthened her to the point where she could inflict significant additional damage on The Glutton.

Two strikes chopped off its claws, followed by its legs.

The Glutton was like meat on a chopping board, being sliced open by Ji Mengyao, its corrosive blood splashing out and corroding her flesh.

She now looked like a war god who had walked out of hell.

"Pfft!"

A fatal slash struck The Glutton's weak point in the abdomen. This was one of countless strikes Ji Mengyao had delivered.

And it was this strike that finally ended The Glutton's life, leaving it lifeless.

"Hmph, today is the day I finally got a boyfriend, how can I die here!"

She casually wiped the blood off her face and looked at the other The Glutton, which was almost fully recovered.

The creature was charging towards her but suddenly stopped halfway and began to slowly retreat.

What's going on, was it scared?

"Aaaah!!!"

A deafening roar suddenly came from behind her.

Turning around, she saw the dark-circled zombie that had been fighting with Wu Di, as if it had finally been provoked.

Wu Di, who had been dodging its attacks, suddenly seemed to be hit by something invisible and was thrown out.

The area around the dark-circled zombie also seemed to be swept by something, with various exhibits, facilities, and shelves being smashed to pieces.

However, there was no visible force causing this.

Ji Mengyao finally understood why The Glutton had retreated.
