End of the World, Rebirth as a Queen

Coincidentally, when they were about to reach the exit of the oasis, they met an acquaintance again.

Nian Mingting and his little brother Xiang Xilin, covered in blood, are being attacked by a porcupine. This guy is difficult to deal with even if he has not been mutated.

Now that it has been mutated, it is even more terrifying. Many thorns have been inserted into Xilin's body. He still uses a stick to drive away the mutated porcupine.

The mutated porcupine covered with thorns made it impossible to deal with it, and its attacks made it impossible to fight back. Xiang Xilin felt very frustrated and had a hard time coping with it.

Nian Mingting had obviously lost too much blood and passed out. Only Xiang Xilin was still fighting desperately to survive.

Their situation was much worse than Liang Feng's. Liang Feng and his friends only had minor injuries, but Xiang Xilin and his friends were in a life-or-death situation. When Xiang Xilin saw someone coming, tears were about to come out.

"Help, save us...Help~Help" He was probably really on the verge of life and death. Seeing the dawn of life, his instinct for survival made the sound he made was surprisingly loud.

Lu Zhu and the others couldn't hide because his voice alerted the porcupine, which turned around quickly and saw them. Its spikes stood up straight and it attacked quickly.

This caught Lu Zhu and his men off guard, but they were experienced in combat, so they dispersed in all directions tacitly without saying anything.

Seeing that the people here were too agile, the porcupine changed direction and continued to rush towards Xilin, and the sharp spines on its body shot out. This was something Lu Zhu and others had never seen before.

In the past, I only knew that porcupine quills could be used for self-defense and to attack enemies, but I had never seen their quills being able to fly.

This must be the reason why Xiang Xilin and Nian Mingting were injured!

Seeing its attack pattern, Lu Zhu wanted to challenge it, but was afraid of being stabbed, so he didn't dare to move forward. However, his eyes were shining, and he looked like he was eager to try but didn't dare to move forward.

Lin Bei kept his eyes on her, and the corners of his mouth curled up unconsciously.

On Lu Zhu's side, Liang Feng was injured, Lu Ziqi sprained his waist, Mi Liansheng and Zhao Huatong were still dizzy due to inhaling moth scale powder, and could only rush on their way, and were afraid they could not do anything else.

So among the six people, only Lu Zhu and Lin Bei can save the two people on the opposite side. Porcupines are herbivores, and no one knows how the two of them offended this living ancestor.

After all, Nian Mingting and his men had not done anything unforgivable along the way, and they were relatively upright people. Lu Zhu had found a reason for himself to take action and was ready to take action.

Seeing that they all dodged away, Xiang Xilin really started to cry, and his hands were too weak to keep swinging the stick.

"Please, save us~ Save us~" Xiang Xilin's words sounded so tearful.

In a flash, Lu Zhu swung his dagger out at this moment, and he thought it would kill the man with one blow, but it didn't.

Lu Zhu's short knife made a "ding" sound and was actually bounced away. Lu Zhu was a little dumbfounded. This was the first time he failed in such a long time.

It turned out that the quills and hairs of the porcupine became extremely hard after being mutated. Lu Zhu's knife made the already angry mutated porcupine even more furious, which was like adding fuel to the fire.

It began an indiscriminate attack, and the thorns on its body shot out in all directions like a rain of pear blossom needles.

The people who were nearby were so scared that they ran away quickly. Mi Liansheng and Zhao Huatong reacted slowly. They were hit by one of them each, Mi Liansheng on the leg and Zhao Huatong on the buttocks.

His groggy brain suddenly became clear, and he kept yelling. Fortunately, this was the edge of the oasis, and the alienated plants were not so active, otherwise they would be in trouble.

Lu Zhu didn't expect that the porcupine was so fierce and had this trick. Seeing the two sharp thorns flying towards her, she subconsciously wanted to use her supernatural powers.

A dark shadow stood in front of her and held her in his arms. The sound of being shot was heard at the same time. Lu Zhu opened her eyes wide, a little bit unable to believe it.

She looked up at the person holding her, her eyes full of shock.

Only then did she realize that Lin Bei was so tall. It was not that she didn't know it before, but from her current angle, she had the illusion that she was very petite.

Although she had never measured her height seriously in the last days, she had obviously grown taller. She was probably around 1.69 meters tall now!

But now in Lin Bei's arms, this angle made Lu Zhu feel a little embarrassed for some reason.

Although Lu Zhu had a lot of thoughts in her mind at the moment, it didn't take long for Lin Bei to let her go. When she turned around, Lu Zhu saw two long thorns piercing Lin Bei's back.

"Is your back okay?" Lu Zhu asked worriedly.

Lin Bei turned his head to look at his back and shook his head indifferently.

"The clothes are thick, so it didn't pierce through~" he said nonchalantly. He stretched out his hand to reach it, but didn't catch it, so he turned sideways and said to Lu Zhu.

"Help me pull it off~" Lin Bei said in a flat voice.

When Lu Zhu heard him say that he didn't get pricked, she no longer felt any psychological burden and pulled the thorn out in two strokes.

After pulling it out, he found that the thorn had penetrated quite deeply. Although it did not penetrate the flesh, the barb on the thorn had made two large holes in his back.

This is probably why Nian Mingting was bleeding profusely! If the barb is inserted into the body, it will bring out other flesh and skin. If it is inserted deeper, death will be a matter of time.

This thorn is too powerful~

The consequence of the porcupine's "Ten Thousand Swords" attack is that it has no usable spines left on its body, and all that remains is ordinary hair.

When it realized this, it turned around and looked behind itself in disbelief. It found that she started to get scared without support, but it still put on a ferocious look, but its steps were retreating.

But Lin Bei didn't give him a chance. With two "swishes", the quills in his hand flew towards the porcupine. The porcupine never thought that the quills that were originally used to protect itself would become a "knife" to stab itself.

It was nailed firmly to the ground, without any sound.

The danger was resolved and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

"Lu Zhu~" Xiang Xilin burst into tears when he saw his acquaintance, and then he seemed relieved and successfully fainted.

Lu Zhu: "..."Brother hasn't left the oasis yet! It's too early to faint.

There was no other way. They couldn't just abandon them after meeting each other for a while, and Mi Liansheng and Zhao Huatong also needed the thorns removed and bandaged, so they temporarily found a place to settle down.

None of the people had medical expertise, and they were at a loss as to what to do with the thorns pricking their bodies. Lu Zhu had already told them how powerful these thorns were.

Pulling them out blindly will only make them die faster.

Zhao Huatong raised his buttocks and accidentally shook it, causing the spikes to shake as well, which made him feel even more painful.

Mi Liansheng also had a painful expression and was sweating profusely. Needless to say, he was in great pain, but he did not scream out like Zhao Huatong.

Lu Zhu felt helpless as she looked at the three people with "thorns". She seemed to have read in a book before that charcoal can stop bleeding.

She couldn't take out the hemostatic medicine in her space. After all, she was not familiar with them and didn't want to waste it.

So she had no choice but to light a fire and burn more charcoal, hoping that when she pulled the thorns out, it would help stop the bleeding!

"It hurts so much~ I can't go on like this! How about you help me pull it out! It's better to suffer a short pain than a long one~ ah..." Zhao Huatong's voice trembled, and the cold sweat on his forehead had wet his hair.

"Me too..." Mi Liansheng also spoke through gritted teeth.

In unison, everyone's eyes were focused on Lu Zhu, probably because they thought that as a girl, her hands were light and it shouldn't be that painful to pull it out.

Facing the gazes of Liang Feng, Mi Liansheng and Zhao Huatong, Lu Zhu wanted to face the challenge head-on but a voice spoke before her.

"I'll pull it out..."
