A wave of weakness washed over Ping Chengcheng, bringing an urge to fall asleep and never wake up.
Pain pulsed through her, and maddening whispers echoed in her mind.
“Sleep…”
“Just fall asleep…”
“As long as you fall asleep, everything will be alright…”
She fought against the whispers in her mind with all her strength.
“Sister…”
The little tentacle monster suddenly spoke in Song Ning’s palm.
“What’s wrong, Chengcheng?” Song Ning asked curiously.
“You threw me at the Chimera Composite. I’m a little weak and need to devour something.”
Song Ning understood. She looked at the little tentacle monster the size of her palm in her hand. It was hard to imagine how the girl had transformed from a 1.5-meter-tall girl into something so small…
Although she wasn’t wearing exoskeleton armor, and her body was showing signs of fatigue, just throwing it near the Chimera Composite might not be very accurate, but she could do it.
“Let me do it, Ping Chengcheng,” Zheng Zhiyi suddenly volunteered.
“I’ve been training a lot recently. This is very easy for me!” she said, with a smile on her face that looked very confident.
Ping Chengcheng didn’t pay much attention to it for the time being, and agreed to Zheng Zhiyi’s volunteering. She needed to replenish her strength quickly, and endless weakness was coming from everywhere in her body.
Zheng Zhiyi put the tentacle monster in her right palm, and then, she did a standard grenade throwing posture.
Crossing a beautiful arc, the tentacle monster landed accurately on the core of the Chimera Composite’s chest.
Without any hesitation, countless tiny tentacles pierced into this fleshy core, devouring flesh and blood wantonly!
Slowly, this tiny tentacle monster gradually grew stronger.
After three or four minutes, Ping Chengcheng stopped devouring.
The body was almost there, and the tentacle monster’s size had returned to its usual appearance.
Ping Chengcheng quietly felt it. She could now transform back into a human at any time. Moreover, the girl had also gained a new ability:
A ridiculously strong ability!
The Chimera Composite’s signature skill, absorbing zombies, for her to use.
It’s just that she was a little troubled. This ability was indeed very strong, but it also had great limitations.
To always act as the core to control the corpse group meant to be surrounded by countless zombies, which was equivalent to replacing the Chimera Composite’s core.
Oh well… I won’t think about it.
A deep pain came from her mind. The pain was constantly reminding the girl.
“Am I going to lose my mind?”
The bloodthirsty desire gradually emerged from her heart.
The girl was still maintaining the form of the tentacle monster. She flashed, quickly passing through the piles of zombies and returning to the top of the ruins, in Song Ning’s arms.
“Zheng Zhiyi, is the medicine I gave you earlier still there?”
Zheng Zhiyi nodded repeatedly, opened the exoskeleton energy column storage cabin, and carefully took out the medicine.
“It’s here!”
Confused thoughts and ideas overwhelmed the girl, but Ping Chengcheng didn’t plan to inject it now.
She was now in a monster’s body, and she was afraid that she would not be able to turn back into human form after injecting it.
What to do?
The girl’s mood became nervous.
“Sister, I want to turn back into a human, but I don’t have any clothes.”
Ye Yin and the others had crossed half of the tide of corpses and were very close to here. Because of the convoy’s mighty momentum, there were very few zombies gathered around Ping Chengcheng and the others.
“Clothes? Where are there clothes?”
Song Ning was only wearing a tight-fitting combat suit, and after taking it off, she would only have underwear left.
She finally had to turn her eyes to Zheng Zhiyi.
Zheng Zhiyi smiled drily.
She took off the exoskeleton armor on her body.
“Here, wear it, but if you don’t have a combat uniform, it might be a little uncomfortable.”
Zheng Zhiyi handed the combat uniform to the girl somewhat unnaturally, placing the exoskeleton armor aside.
“Hmph, what’s there to feel sorry for? I’ll just get you a better one later.”
Ping Chengcheng said with disdain, making Zheng Zhiyi grit her back teeth involuntarily.
“Yeah, yeah, okay, Ping Chengcheng, you’re the most amazing.”
“Well, I’m going to turn back into a human now, Sister…” the girl said, her voice sounding a little shy.
Song Ning responded, and a picture of the girl’s youthful body flashed in her mind, cute and a little seductive…
Her face turned red slightly, and she suddenly said to Zheng Zhiyi, “Turn around, don’t look.”
“Ah?”
Zheng Zhiyi’s face was strange, and she suddenly remembered something.
“Okay, okay, okay, I definitely won’t look!” She pulled up the extremely elastic combat uniform to cover her head as if to prove that what she said was true.
Song Ning looked at her speechlessly: “…”
Song Ning shielded her, looking for a corner where no one could see.
The girl turned back into human form, still that familiar little guy who was barely 1.5 meters tall.
She lowered her little head, her face was flushed terribly, and her voice was humming, “Sis…”
“Hurry up and put it on, there won’t be enough time later.”
Song Ning urged.
“Yeah!”
She put on the exoskeleton in a few strokes, and it automatically fit her body, seamless.
Because she didn’t have a combat uniform, it was a little uncomfortable to wear, but it didn’t matter for the time being.
“I’m done, Sister.” The girl looked at Song Ning with a smile.
“Is it okay? Is it okay?” Zheng Zhiyi stretched her head out of the combat uniform, gasping for breath.
“I’m going to suffocate!”
The girl ignored her and hugged Song Ning’s arm, her face flushed.
“Sister… I’m glad you’re okay…”
Song Ning was slightly stunned.
She recalled everything the girl had done for her in her memory, and all of them emerged from her heart. In addition to being moved, there was also…
“Chengcheng… you’ve been lying to me so much…”
“Is there anything you want to say?”
“When this operation is over and we get back, you’re in for it!”
Her face suddenly turned cold, she snorted softly, and flicked the girl’s forehead hard with her index finger.
“Chengcheng is so disobedient!”
“Not good at all!”
Hearing Song Ning’s words, Ping Chengcheng’s reaction made Song Ning a little surprised.
She covered her head and laughed cheerfully.
“Oh, Sister…”
“Can you be a little gentler when the time comes?”
Song Ning’s face turned completely black.
“Chengcheng… what are you thinking about in your head!”
What was in this guy’s head?
The girl blinked innocently, her eyes seemed to be floating with water mist. She pursed her small mouth, looking so weak and pitiful.
“Sister, why are you suddenly so fierce…”
“What’s in my head is all just you…”
That voice was soft and glutinous, very gentle. Listening to it made Song Ning feel itchy in her heart, like a kitten scratching her heart.
The girl got closer to the young woman and gently blew a breath at her earlobe. The familiar sandalwood fragrance lingered at her nose…
Song Ning’s face was completely red.
“Chengcheng… you…”
She gasped for breath.
“We must teach her a good lesson! Let this naughty little guy know who is the master!”
Zheng Zhiyi squatted on the side, trying to reduce her presence as much as possible. She looked at the interaction between the two girls, her eyes, eyebrows, and mouth were wrinkled into a ball. The whole person was like she had eaten a fly.
To describe it more vividly, her expression was like: old man subway phone.
