Quick Wear: Passerby A's Counterattack Revised Plot

Chapter 108 World 2: Finding Reality in the End of the Infinite Stream 16

She stopped and turned to face Lin Yi, her eyes serious and gentle: "We need evidence and a deeper understanding of this world to uncover the truth behind these mutant creatures. Moreover, whether it is man-made or natural, our task now is to deal with them and protect ourselves and others."

After thinking for a while, Shi Qi added: "In fact, if... it was really them who did it, then Heaven would be happy. He wouldn't have to do anything, humanity would perish on its own. He only needed to add some ingredients to the mutant creatures, and we wouldn't even have to come, and this world would be gone."

Lin Yi asked: "What about now?"

Shi Qi explained: "Now that we can come, it means it wasn't them who did it."

Lin Yi nodded thoughtfully, then laughed and said, "Haha, it seems we should be grateful for this mission, which gives us the opportunity to explore the secrets of this world!"

Shi Qi was also infected by Lin Yi's optimism and smiled slightly: "Yes, every mission is a new adventure. Who can say that this is not a kind of fun?"

The two continued to move forward, and soon they arrived at the edge of the mutant creature activity area marked on the communicator.

This is a desolate ruin, with an eerie silence all around, and only the occasional low roar breaking the tranquility.

"Be careful, we may have entered their territory." Shi Qi reminded softly, and at the same time took out a weapon from the storage space. It was a dagger that looked ordinary but emitted a faint light. It was made of special materials she found in this world.

Lin Yi followed closely behind, holding a multifunctional combat knife in his hand, which could be used for close combat as well as as a long-range throwing weapon.

The two men shuttled between the ruins, using the terrain for concealment and observation.

Soon, they discovered a mutant creature that was looking for food - a huge beast with dark green skin.

"That's it." Shi Qi said in a low voice, and at the same time gave Lin Yi a wink, indicating that he should prepare for battle.

Lin Yi understood what he meant, and he immediately rushed out from his hiding place and launched a surprise attack on the giant beast.

Lin Yi was agile. He used the obstacles in the ruins as cover and approached the dark green beast silently.

The giant beast seemed unaware of the approaching danger, and still kept its head down and focused on its prey - a broken machine that had long lost its life.

Just when the giant beast was about to bite, Lin Yi suddenly jumped out, and the multifunctional combat knife in his hand turned into a cold light, heading straight for the giant beast's vital point.

The beast let out a deafening roar and turned its huge body sharply, trying to use its sharp claws to block the sudden attack.

But Lin Yi's movements were faster. He moved flexibly around the giant beast. Every swing of his sword was extremely precise. He avoided the giant beast's defense and gradually left scars on its body.

Shi Qi was observing the battle from the side, her hands clenched into fists. Although she couldn't directly participate in the battle, this was Lin Yi's first time fighting alone, and his strength was restricted, so she couldn't help but feel a little worried.

As the battle progressed, the beast's roar gradually weakened and its movements became slower and slower.

Lin Yi seized the opportunity, somersaulted onto the top of the giant beast's head, tightly grasped the combat knife in both hands, and chopped at the beast's head with all his strength.

There was a loud "bang" and the huge body of the beast fell to the ground, splashing up a cloud of dust.

After the giant beast fell, Lin Yi staggered and stumbled to Shi Qi and said to her: "I did it, but I don't know what happened, my head is so dizzy..." After that, Lin Yi fell to the ground, and Shi Qi hurriedly stepped forward to catch him.

Shi Qi checked Lin Yi's condition and found that he had no wounds on his body, not even his clothes were torn.

When Shi Qi saw Lin Yi suddenly fainted and had no injuries, he began to ask the system, "System, get out here, what's going on?"

The mechanical and calm voice of the system sounded in Shi Qi's mind: "Please calm down, contestant Shi Qi.

Lin Yi fainted because he was poisoned by the mutant creature."

Upon hearing this, Shi Qi frowned, and a trace of anxiety arose in his heart: "Poisoned? What should I do? System, tell me how to detoxify!"

The system responded slowly: "According to my data analysis, this mutant organism contains an unknown neurotoxin that can quickly affect the organism's nervous system, causing coma or even death.

Fortunately, however, there should be plants or minerals nearby that can neutralize the toxin.”

Shi Qi immediately looked around. The ruins were overgrown with weeds, and occasionally a few plants with strange shapes could be seen. "System, can you specifically point out which plants or minerals can detoxify?"

"Please go about fifty meters northeast. There is a plant called 'Qingxin Grass'. Its leaves are lavender and have detoxifying properties." The system gave clear instructions.

Just then, a slight noise caught Shi Qi's attention.

She turned quickly and looked vigilantly in the direction where the sound came from.

I saw a smaller but agile mutant creature approaching quietly, obviously attracted by the previous battle.

"Hmph, you want to take advantage of my misfortune?" Shi Qi snorted coldly, and the dagger in his hand suddenly lit up with a dazzling light.

She flashed and appeared in front of the mutant creature like a ghost. The dagger slashed across at lightning speed, leaving a dazzling trail.

The mutant creature let out a shrill scream, its body was split in two, and it fell to the ground, motionless.

Shi Qi cleaned up the battlefield without any hesitation, making sure that no smell would be left that might attract more mutant creatures.

After dealing with all this, she returned to Lin Yi, patted his cheek gently, and said softly: "Lin Yi, hold on a little longer, I will be back soon."

After that, Shi Qi began to threaten the system. She said, "Don't issue such toxic tasks next time. Otherwise, I can't guarantee that I can resist forcibly finding you."

The system assured, "It will never happen again. This time it was an accident." It whispered quietly, "Who told you to come here? There are so many mutant creatures in other places, but you chose to come here to die. Who can you blame?"

"Huh? What did you say just now?" Shi Qi asked after hearing the system's mumbling.

The system replied flatteringly: "How could that be? You heard me wrong. I meant that you are awesome and came here specifically to solve a problem for others."

Shi Qi placed Lin Yi in a relatively safe place and left a mark so that he could come back and look for him.

Then, she followed the system's instructions and quickly moved northeast.

Soon, Shi Qi indeed found several Qingxin grasses emitting a faint purple light in the crevices of a ruin.

She picked it quickly and put it into the space carefully, fearing that there would be any damage.

Returning to Lin Yi, Shi Qi gently called his name, but Lin Yi was still unconscious.

She took out the Qingxin Grass and, according to the instructions given by the system in her memory, crushed a few leaves, squeezed out the juice, and prepared to feed it to Lin Yi.

"Lin Yi, hold on, I will be able to save you soon." Shi Qi muttered to himself and slowly dripped the juice of Qingxin Grass into Lin Yi's mouth.

Time passed minute by minute, Shi Qi stood by Lin Yi nervously, observing his changes.

Finally, a hint of color gradually returned to Lin Yi's pale face, and his breathing became steady.

"Great, Lin Yi, you're awake!" Shi Qi excitedly held Lin Yi's hand.

Lin Yi slowly opened his eyes, and seeing Shi Qi's concerned face, he forced a smile: "I'm fine, thank you, Sister Qi."

"Stop talking and have a good rest first." Shi Qi comforted Lin Yi gently, his heart filled with gratitude for surviving the disaster.

Under Shi Qi's care, Lin Yi gradually recovered his strength. Although he was still a little weak, his mind was clear.

The two sat in a corner of the ruins, surrounded by traces of the battle, but it seemed particularly peaceful.

"Sister Qi, what should we do next?" Lin Yi's voice was weak but firm.

Shi Qi looked into the distance and said, "Leave here first and find a safe place for you to recuperate. There are more and more mutant creatures here, and we can't stay any longer."

As she spoke, she took out some dry food and water from her backpack and handed them to Lin Yi: "Eat something and replenish your energy. We have to set off as soon as possible."

Lin nodded, took the food, and looked around while eating. Suddenly, he seemed to think of something, "Oh, right, Sister Qi, while there are still mutant creatures here, go kill one and complete the task."

Shi Qi said: "No need, when you were unconscious just now, I had already killed a mutant beast."

After hearing this, Lin Yi was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Sister Qi, you are so amazing! It seems that I have to work harder to keep up with your pace in the future."

"So how are you? Are you injured?"

Shi Qi shook his head and assured Lin Yi seriously: "I'm fine, Lin Yi. Next time I will check in advance to see if it is dangerous and will not let this happen again."

The two of them rested for a while, and Shi Qi helped Lin Yi stand up slowly.

"System, is there any recommended route? We need to find a safe place." Shi Qi called the system again.

The system responded quickly: "Based on your current location and analysis of the surrounding environment, I suggest you move southwest. There is a relatively unspoiled forest area over there, and there may be safer shelters or temporary camps."

Lin Yi looked at this scene in surprise, "System? Sister Qi, how could the system listen to you?"

Shi Qi replied: "Oh, about this. I unlocked a part of my power, so I pulled out the system to help us find the way and identify whether the road ahead is dangerous."

After hearing this, Lin Yi's eyes lit up, "Qiqi, you are awesome. You can even use the system to help us. This way, we can avoid taking detours."

The two smiled at each other, then followed the system's instructions and embarked on a journey to the forest in the southwest.

Along the way, Shi Qi used his spiritual power to explore the surroundings from time to time to make sure no mutant creatures were approaching.

Although Lin Yi was physically weak, he tried his best to keep up with Shi Qi's pace, not wanting to become a burden.

As they went deeper, the surrounding scenery began to change.

The originally desolate ruins were gradually replaced by lush trees, and the air was filled with the fresh scent of soil and leaves.

The sunlight shines through the gaps in the leaves, casting mottled shadows, adding a bit of vitality to this pure land in the doomsday.

"Look, the forest is in front of us." Shi Qi said, pointing to the place in front.

Lin Yi looked up and saw a lush forest, like an oasis in the doomsday world.

He took a deep breath, feeling the long-lost breath of nature, and an inexplicable excitement surged in his heart.

"Let's go and find that shelter or camp." Shi Qi said, and took the lead to step into the forest.

Lin Yi followed closely behind, and the two of them carefully shuttled through the woods, avoiding making too loud noise and causing unnecessary trouble.

The system also played an important role at this time, constantly providing intelligence and guidance about the surroundings, helping them avoid potential dangers.

After a long journey, they finally came to a hidden valley.

There was a clear stream flowing through the valley, and there were a few simple wooden houses and tents scattered along the stream, which was obviously a makeshift shelter.

"It seems we found it." Shi Qi breathed a sigh of relief and a long-lost smile appeared on his face.

Lin Yi also showed a gratified expression. He walked to the stream, scooped up a handful of cool stream water to wash his face, and immediately felt refreshed.

"Is there no one else here?"

The system replied: "No, this place was supposed to be the reward for the second round of tasks, but now... you are allowed to stay here in advance."

Shi Qi thought for a moment and said, "That's good. Let's rest here for a while and recover our strength. You should also take a good rest and get well first."

Lin nodded in agreement.

The two immediately found a relatively safe corner in the shelter and began to pack their equipment and food. They decided to settle down in the shelter temporarily.

Shi Qi started to get busy. She asked Lin Yi to take out some simple tools from the system mall.

She did some simple tidying and reinforcement of the shelter, ensuring it could better protect against outside dangers.

At the same time, she took out some food and water, as well as medical supplies from her backpack and prepared a comfortable resting environment for Lin Yi.

Lin Yize lay on a simple bed made of hay and old clothes, closed his eyes, and tried to recover his strength.

Although his body was still very weak, he felt unusually calm and content. After coming to this world for such a long time, he could finally rest for a while.

As time passed, the shelter was gradually filled with a warm atmosphere.

Lin Yi's tense nerves gradually relaxed and he finally fell into a deep sleep.

During the time when Lin Yi was sleeping soundly, Shi Qi was not idle.

She tried to use the system to see if she could connect to the real world. However, maybe this system was just a system for issuing tasks, so Shi Qi did not find a way to connect to the real world.

Shi Qi muttered to himself: "Alas, it seems that I still need to complete a few more main tasks to reduce the restrictions on me!"
