569: Courting Disaster

Courting Disaster

"They- They are mutated ants, right?" someone asked with uncertainty.1

"What in the world are they? They're so scary looking," a man grumbled.

Even the most boorish of men were afraid when they saw so many large ants.

Fortunately, the ants stood still, not attempting to crawl towards them.

"This won't be simple." 

Qin Yi immediately felt something was wrong, her sharp intuition not allowing her to relax.

What was the connection between the sudden disappearance of the zombies in the city and the appearance of the big ants?

Yang Jindi was scared half to death by the big ants, to the point that her calves trembled nonstop. After all, she was an ordinary human, without any abilities.

She always came over with the group but was tasked with digging out the crystal cores while others dealt with the zombies.

Furthermore, Wang Qiang always protected her. Now that he was sick, what would she do?

Seeing that the ants were unmoving, however, her thoughts began to race once again.

"Tsk! They're just a group of ants and you guys are actually afraid. So weak!" Yang Jindi immediately laughed in mockery when she heard the man say that the ants were scary.

To her, the ants were just a group of stationary ants that had grown slightly bigger than usual.

Qin Yi rubbed her forehead. Where did such an idiot come from, to not be afraid of dying? Was she some sort of android, to be so brave and court disaster?

They did not move out of fear. Although the group of ants remained stationary, no one knew if they would start reacting if they moved.

This was extremely normal, as the zombies had relied on smell and movement to search for them in the beginning of the apocalypse.

As a result, they did not dare make any reckless moves.

"What do you know? Stop moving! You want to die but we don't!" 

The man did not fool around despite being mocked by Yang Jindi. When he saw how she was actually approaching the ants, he growled at her anxiously.

"Tsk! Look at you cowards. These are big ants, but they are still ants, and they won't eat people. What are you guys afraid of? You talk about being a grade four or five ability user, but you guys are so afraid. You can't even compare to this lady over here."

Yan Jindi laughed at the fools. Before the apocalypse, she was someone that no one had liked. 

In the apocalypse, the female gender became extremely important, but she remained unwanted.

How could she, someone with such high ambitions, accept that? To her, she was better than the others. It was just that the other women could not compare to her, and the heavens were not good to her, not giving her an ability.

Now that there was an opportunity, how could she not act upon it?

Although Yang Jindi had heard of countless mutated beast stories, she had never encountered them firsthand before, only hearing about them from others.

At that time, she thought that mutated beasts were extremely terrifying, capable of eating humans and drinking their blood. After calming down inside the village for several years, she only saw zombies in M-City.

But seeing how the zombies were dying so easily, her heart began to fill with disdain, feeling that all the news was fake.

How could zombies and mutated beasts be so scary?

Yang Jindi continued to approach the ants in an attempt to showcase her own bravery. She even extended her hand out with the intent of touching the ant.

Qin Yi's mouth curved into a smile of disdain as she quietly watched Yang Jindi court with disaster.

Fortunately, Wang Qiang still had some intelligence in him. Although he was ordinarily slow, he was still a grade 2 ability user and had seen plenty of things.

When he saw how Yang Jindi was actually provoking the mutated ants, he was scared out of his wits.
