"Xing, where have you reached? Penacony?"
It was daytime, so everyone had a rare moment to relax. Liu Yueyan curiously asked about the Star Rail's progress.
However, judging from Xing's muttering earlier, Xing must have already been to Penacony. After all, she had heard the names Liuying and Sparkle from her mouth. But earlier in the group chat, Xing had also mentioned the name Aya, so she wasn't sure where the Star Rail was now.
But seeing Xing so full of life, she probably hadn't set off for Omphalos yet. After all, Xing had died once after going there.
"Yeah, we just beat that guy Aventurine yesterday. I was originally planning to cooperate with Sunday, but now that I know the future, I plan to talk to Uncle Yang and Aunt Himeko first, and then make plans."
Xing felt a wave of depression thinking about what was to come. She didn't expect that going to Omphalos would be life-threatening. This was really...
But when she thought about the cute girls she would meet after going to Omphalos, Xing felt that maybe dying once wasn't such a bad deal?
"Xing, have you ever thought about trying to kidnap Robin? Maybe it would make your journey easier?"
Lin Tian suggested a good method for Xing. After all, Robin was Sunday's weak spot. When the time came to face God-King Sunday, as long as they pushed Robin to the front, there was no fear of Sunday refusing to compromise!
Of course, this was the optimistic way of looking at it. If they really did it, this situation would be more realistic:
Day One: Let there be order!
Day Two: Let there be order!
Day Three: Let there be order!
...
Day Seven: The birth of Order!
What? You ask why the first two phases are missing?
Sunday: My sister is injured. I no longer have the mind to distinguish right from wrong! Resounding Poetry Chorus! Dominix! Let there be order!
"Are you afraid we're not dying fast enough?"
Xing looked speechlessly at Lin Tian, who had proposed this seemingly viable, but actually suicidal, suggestion. Did he really think she didn't know what Robin meant to Sunday?
With Sunday being such a top-tier sis-con, if he knew she had kidnapped his sister, it would be merciful of him not to chop her into mincemeat.
"But isn't Sunday's ideal a good one? A seven-day weekend, that's the dream of most people!"
Men Yashi actually quite agreed with Sunday's idea. If someone was willing to let him have a vacation every week, and even get paid for it, he couldn't be blamed for joining Brother Sunday's faction.
"Well, I actually agree with it too, but the trend is against him, so I can only oppose him. Besides, I'm already in a state of working while on vacation. I'd hate to see other workers slacking off while we Trailblazers are still working hard."
Xing said with a look of "serving the people," stating her thoughts with a resolute face.
"The entire universe is facing an unprecedented crisis of destruction! This is precisely the time for trailblazing vanguards like us to shine! How can we rest? Everyone must work!"
"I died going to Omphalos and I'm still working! How dare anyone else have the face to rest!"
Watching Xing start to pour out her grievances, Lin Tian was startled and quietly moved away from her. This scummy Xing wasn't quite right!
But perhaps it was just Lin Tian's imagination. After finishing her rant, Xing once again rushed into the embrace of the maid army, kissing and caressing them.
"Kanna!"
Ignoring the once-again-crazy Xing, Lin Tian went over to Kanna, scooped the cute dragon loli up in one go, and rubbed his face against her soft, smooth white hair in enjoyment.
Shiho Miyano, who was standing nearby, saw this, and took Kanna from Lin Tian's embrace with a face full of jealousy. She looked at Lin Tian with disgust and said, "Kanna is still just a child!"
Hearing Shiho Miyano's words, Lin Tian was baffled. He just wanted to hug Kanna. How did this get twisted into being about her being a child?
Oh well. Since he wasn't allowed to hug Kanna, he could only hug Shiho Miyano. In any case, it wasn't a loss for him.
...
Time passed slowly, and the second blood moon soon began.
This time, the blood moon caused the zombies to evolve slightly once again. But ultimately, they were no match for the power of firearms and were still just small fries that could be taken down with one shot.
It wasn't until the blood moon on the tenth day that the zombies received a truly significant enhancement. The zombies that could originally be finished with one shot now required 2-3 shots.
Moreover, their numbers had begun to spike. From the original 4-5 thousand at most, their numbers had increased to 7-8 thousand. It was obvious that every ten days was a cycle. The zombies would receive a major boost under the influence of the blood moon, while on normal days, the enhancement was only very slight.
With the rise of the blood moon on the twentieth day, the zombies had already begun to learn to use various tools. However, due to the terrain, this enhancement to their attacks had no effect on Lin Tian and the others, who still dealt with them easily.
On the twenty-fifth day, Daigu successfully joined this world, becoming another asset to help the group. What was surprising was that his ability to transform into Tiga was still intact. Although it was weakened considerably, he still became a primary force in eliminating zombies.
On the twenty-seventh day, Zhongli went back, but left Xiao behind. He also brought over the other few revived Yakshas.
Kamisato Ayaka also had Lumine send her back. Although she wanted to stay longer, there were still many matters at the Kamisato Estate for her to handle, and her brother was probably getting anxious, so she had to go back.
...
Time slowly crawled to the blood moon of the fiftieth day. The buff this blood moon gave the zombies was enormous, because they had already learned to stack blocks and dig blocks! Their numbers had even surpassed ten thousand!
Everyone began to feel a little overwhelmed. These zombies were tough, and each one required at least 6-7 shots to take down. Even if there were enough maids, they couldn't withstand the sheer number of zombies.
Fortunately, Lin Tian had planted prohibition torches all around the platform. It was impossible for these zombies to get close, so the group wasn't worried about the base being breached.
"Sigh~, the zombies have been getting stronger and stronger lately. Even if I use a rocket launcher, it takes three shots to destroy one. And these are only the zombies from day 57! I really don't know what it will be like on the hundredth day."
Liu Yueyan, holding a sniper rifle, shot a zombie in the distance and then sighed wearily.
