In a frigid apocalypse, she fed her boyfriend until he became a zombie king.

Wenren Lei lifted her head from Fu Yan's arms and stared at him blankly.

I'm totally stunned by my husband's good looks.

He couldn't resist; he grabbed Fu Yan's shirt with both hands, stood on tiptoe, and kissed his lips.

Only after the dark green rain stopped did Wenren Lei shyly hide back in Fu Yan's arms.

Fu Yan licked his lips, his voice filled with satisfaction: "Good boy."

At that moment, a very plaintive voice rang out.

"Hey! Is nobody going to do anything about me?!"

Wenren Lei peeked half her face out from Fu Yan's arms and looked down.

Wen Chi stood on the ground, his whole body drenched and green.

"Hahahaha, you...you don't have an umbrella?"

Wen Chi raised his hand and wiped the spider-green liquid off his face, chuckling, "I don't have a spatial dimension, so where would I get an umbrella!"

Fu Yan pinched the little bun that Wenren Lei had just tied at the back of her head, and looked down at Wen Chi: "Don't be temperamental, I'll give you some space later."

Wen Chi's lips curled up noticeably. He turned around, put his hands behind his back, and walked slowly away. "Alright, as an elder, I won't argue with you juniors. I'm going to find the Corpse King's Crystal Core."

Wenren Lei nuzzled against Fu Yan's chest: "He will definitely fill the space with food."

"Tears." Fu Yan called out softly.

"Hmm?" Wenren Lei looked up at him.

Fu Yan gently pinched his chin and kissed him again.

……

When the two returned to the banquet hall, the 10G group and the two Huang brothers were gathered in a circle, whispering about something.

Wenren Lei took Fu Yan's hand and walked over, asking, "What's wrong?"

Han Mingjie stepped aside to make room: "Boss, look."

Wenren Lei looked over and saw three human-shaped cocoons lying on the ground: "Where did these come from?"

Huang Yiyun's expression was grim. He said, "Miss Cheng and I found these at Lu Shen's house. All three human-shaped cocoons were hanging from the living room ceiling." He paused, "Inside might be Xiao Shen and..."

Wenren Lei understood and nodded gently.

When he and Fu Yan searched Lu Shen's house before, the Corpse King was still alive. He probably used the chameleon's ability to blend the three cocoons into the color of the roof.

The spider silk was wrapped so tightly that it completely concealed a person's presence, which is why Fu Yan was unable to detect it.

Cheng Nianli added from the side, "These spider silks can only be broken by burning them, but I'm afraid I won't be able to control the heat properly and might hurt the people inside."

Wenren Lei tilted her head and said, "Brother Yan."

The fine spider silk was burned away layer by layer, revealing the person hidden inside.

It was Lu Shen, his eyes closed and his face pale.

"Xiao Shen!" Huang Yiyun quickly stepped forward, knelt on the ground, and carefully reached out to check Lu Shen's carotid artery.

The next second, he collapsed to the ground, his body limp, filled with a mixture of surprise and joy, muttering, "Still alive...still alive..."

Wenren Lei turned her head, saw the dumpling in Chi Qingmo's palm, and raised her chin: "Go."

"Awoo~"

Maruko jumped to the ground, pattered over to Lu Shen, raised its little front paws that glowed with a healing green light, and gently pressed them on Lu Shen's crown.

Wenren Lei walked to Huang Yiyun's side and squatted down: "Brother Huang, the meatballs can save him, don't worry."

Huang Yiyun half-embraced Lu Shen, bowing repeatedly to Wenren Lei, her voice trembling, "Thank you, you saved us again."

Wenren Lei waved her hand: "No need to be polite. But there's something I'd like to ask you."

Huang Yiyun immediately replied, "Ask me anything, I will answer everything I know."

Wenren Lei said, "Someone leaked the news of the Corpse King's presence at the Cloud Map Base, along with the base's coordinates. I've thought about it, but I can't find anyone I can suspect. I want to ask you, where are those survivors who weren't initially allowed into the base?"

Huang Yiyun said, "Everyone is here. When we were investigating the mole within the research institute in the banquet hall, I went outside the base and brought all these people in, so that Brother Yi Yang could knock them all out with an electric shock."

"Brother Huang is indeed very thorough in his work, but were there any who tried to run away along the way?"

Huang Yiyun recalled for a moment and said, "Old Hei and I checked the registration list together, and there were no omissions."

Wenren Lei frowned slightly: "I understand."

Fu Yan then burned the second cocoon. When the cocoon broke open, Grandma Li was inside.

The grandfather and grandson were not entangled in the spider silk for long; they were only in a deep coma.

At this moment, Fu Yan began burning the third cocoon.

Wenren Lei glanced at Huang Yijie, while the little blond boy stood frozen in place, staring intently at the still unburnt cocoon.

It seems he already knows that Kong Lu has been replaced by the Corpse King.

Wenrenlei sighed softly. Kong Lu was probably the first person to be entangled in the spider silk. So much time has passed, and her chances of survival are probably slim.

The cocoon was slowly burned dry.

Sure enough, it was Kong Lu inside.

However, the girl's face had turned a severe bluish-purple, her face was swollen, and her lips were cyanotic.

This is what it looks like more than a day after someone suffocates to death.

"Brother Lei...can he still be saved?" Huang Yijie asked softly.

Wenren Lei's lips moved slightly, and she whispered, "She's already gone."

Huang Yijie took a deep breath, walked over slowly, and took off his coat to cover Kong Lu.

He bent down, picked up the girl, and turned to walk out.

Wenren asked tearfully, "Yijie, where are you going?"

Huang Yijie said, "Find a good place to bury her."

Wenren Lei lowered her head, blinked, and followed, saying, "I'll go with you."

There's hardly any good place left in the Cloud Atlas Base; it's a complete mess, littered with thick, dark green liquid.

Wenren Lei and Huang Yijie walked one after the other through the ruins.

Huang Yijie suddenly said, "Brother Lei, Kong Lu is really a very good girl."

Wenren Lei said, "I know. When we confronted Kong Lu, who was actually the Corpse King in disguise, many residents of the base stood up to speak for her. That's when I knew that Kong Lu was a very kind person."

Huang Yijie's voice trembled with tears. He choked up for a moment before struggling to say, "What should I do, Brother Lei? I can't tell which of the people I was with before was the real her."

Wenren Lei said, "Before the red snow fell, every Kong Lu you saw was her."

A glint of light appeared in Huang Yijie's eyes: "Really?"

Wenren Lei nodded: "It's true, the Corpse King's ability to disguise himself was something he acquired by fusing with a lizard mutant during his evolution."

Huang Yijie burst into tears: "I understand, thank you."

Ultimately, Huang Yijie chose to hide Kong Lu in a plot of land in the planting area.

The two squatted down in front of the small grave mound. Huang Yijie said, "She liked to plant medicinal herbs here, and she also said..."

Huang Yijie stood up, mimicking Kong Lu's posture, and put his hands on his hips: "Maybe traditional Chinese medicine can save us from the apocalypse!"

Wenren Lei chuckled softly.

Huang Yijie lowered his head: "However, most of these medicinal herbs were taken by her to treat the old, weak, sick and disabled in the base free of charge. She is still a long way from saving the world."
