Sun Han and MO Cheng nodded in agreement, then looked at Ji Zan. “We’ll go with you,” they said.

Ji Zan declined, saying, “Both of your abilities are offensive. We used fire and electricity earlier, and those bears might still remember. Provoking them could be dangerous. I’ll go and check first; you wait here.”

Xiao Chang’an immediately stood up, grasping Ji Zan’s large hand. “Uncle, please be careful. Chang’an will be waiting for you.”

Ji Zan nodded, ruffled Chang’an’s little head, and pushed him toward Man Yu. Then he turned to Man Yu and said, “Take care of Fu Shinan.” With that, he headed into the forest.

Watching his resolute figure, Fu Shinan also felt worried. However, her current physical condition would make it difficult to help even if she followed him. Moreover, there was only one path ahead; otherwise, they would have to turn back.

After more than half an hour, Ji Zan finally returned, riding a gust of wind.

The others eagerly asked, “What’s the situation? 𝓯𝒓𝓮𝓮𝒘𝓮𝒃𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝙤𝙢

Ji Zan explained, “Inside, there are many mutated animals. It’s chaotic, and many incompatible species are gathered together. They’re extremely aggressive, and trying to break through seems almost impossible. These animals hold deep resentment towards humans and can’t be communicated with; they attack on sight.” Ji Zan furrowed his brow as he recounted the situation. His body bore numerous small wounds, still bleeding, indicating he had undoubtedly faced a tough battle.

Due to the urgency of the situation earlier, he hadn’t had time to heal his injuries. Now, he was starting to mend. This revelation left Liang Xuanzhe and Professor Zhao shocked.

“Healing ability? Is that also a special ability?”

Ji Zan nodded, saying, “Yes.”

Professor Zhao’s hands trembled with excitement as he examined the healing wounds. “Can this heal the zombie virus?”

Ji Zan shook his head, saying, “No, it can only heal external injuries.”

Upon hearing this, Professor Zhao felt embarrassed. “I was too hasty. If this could cure the zombie virus, we would have been rid of zombies long ago. Ji Zan, if we can safely reach Sui City, would you be willing to donate some blood for our research? While it can’t cure the zombie virus, it can heal external injuries, which is still a significant breakthrough!”

Ji Zan nodded and said, “Of course, I can.”

Professor Zhao eagerly grasped Ji Zan’s hand and said, “That’s fantastic! We might be able to develop a healing medicine that everyone can use! Facing the apocalypse, our chances of survival will greatly increase.”

While the old professor was ecstatic, Fu Shinan was more concerned about the situation in the mountains. She asked, “What kinds of animals are there?”

Ji Zan’s expression became complicated as he replied, “They’re all mutated animals. Some are so different that I couldn’t even tell what they originally were! Compared to them, a black bear seems like a regular bear… There are many strange and terrifying creatures, and just thinking about them gives me goosebumps.” He was finding it hard to even describe their species.

Fu Shinan fell silent, then suddenly had an idea about Ji Zan’s wind ability. She asked, “Do you remember approximately how much time it took to traverse the forest? If we all use our abilities to run, could we make it through?”

She was eager to cross the mountains quickly since their supplies were running low, and wasting any more time was not an option.

MO Cheng’s eyes lit up as he added, “That’s right! I can’t believe I didn’t think of that. It’s a great idea! With Ji Zan’s wind ability, we can run fast.”

Ji Zan pondered for a moment and said, “The forest is quite large, but it’s worth a try. However, before we attempt it, I’ll scout the route a few more times to avoid getting lost and wasting time.” Even with his extraordinary stamina, he would still get tired, and getting lost halfway through would be disastrous.

MO Cheng chimed in, “Brother Ji, I’ll go with you. Two heads are better than one, and we can share the memory.”

“Better not, ” Ji Zan said, “Fu Shinan hasn’t fully recovered, and you and Sun Han have offensive abilities. Stay here to protect everyone.” After that, Ji Zan ventured into the mountains again, repeating the process several times until he confirmed the route.

By the time they had the route figured out, the sun had already set.

With limited visibility at night, they decided to rest in place and start early the next day. After a simple meal, they set up a few makeshift tents they had found at the Changkong Tribe. Due to the limited number of tents, the girls shared one, while the guys slept in two different tents.

Seizing an opportunity, Molly lay down beside Fu Shinan and couldn’t help but ask, “Sister Fu, it seems like you’ve known benefactor for a long time?”

Fu Shinan replied with a soft “yes.”

Molly continued, “So, are you the benefactor’s girlfriend?”

Fu Shinan was about to answer when she was interrupted by Man Yu, “Or else what? Can’t you see how concerned Ji Zan is about Fu Shinan? Young lady, you can follow us, but put away those thoughts!”
