CHAPTER 1242: CHAPTER 294: TUTU, IT’S YOUR TIME TO SHINE

They didn’t take Ji Qiuyue’s accusations to heart.

How could they, who had finally become fearless, be changed by Ji Qiuyue’s few short words?

That was certainly impossible.

"Ridiculous, do you think this woman is ridiculous, actually talking to us about these grand principles? When we were trapped in despair in the post-apocalypse, who came to save us? Who cared about us?"

The Female Mutant, who reacted from the intimidating emotions, couldn’t help but laugh, looking at Lin Fan with mockery in her eyes.

The other mutants around also nodded their heads.

They agreed with this statement.

Ji Qiuyue said, "At that time, everyone was in despair, facing unimaginable dangers, but I always believed that more people would unite, and those with a dark heart were very rare."

"Hahaha." The Female Mutant’s expression gradually twisted, clutching her temples with her fingers, laughing hysterically, "Unity? Darkness? You’re preaching to us here. Do you know what I’ve gone through? Do you know what I’ve suffered? Do you think with just a few words you can erase the suffering I’ve endured?"

The Female Mutant’s emotions gradually spiraled out of control, her expression was very sinister, with a deep madness flashing in her eyes.

Ji Qiuyue stared at the other’s sinister face, saying nothing more. She knew the other’s suffered misery was torture to her; she had experienced despair.

She didn’t continue saying those things, knowing those who haven’t been through it can’t understand that pain. She even considered whether she would still maintain her nature if she went through such suffering and whether her character would change after gaining power.

She didn’t dare say.

She couldn’t guarantee.

"I understand you, but regardless, there’s still hope in this post-apocalyptic world. Lin Fan from Sunshine Shelter in Huang City is the hope; those living there are also hope. Don’t you want to pursue a normal life? It’s not too late to turn back."

Ji Qiuyue spoke sincerely, hoping to touch them with honesty. Humans really couldn’t continue battling; the casualties were too many, and each human’s death represented a decrease in humanity’s hope.

"Hahaha."

"So funny."

"Are all people from Sunshine Shelter in Huang City this naively innocent?"

"A bit naive, perhaps she thinks she’s a savior. What’s the point of talking to them further? Let’s just make a move and take them down."

The seven mutants would of course not have a sudden change of heart because of Ji Qiuyue’s few words. If they could have woken up to this, they wouldn’t have continued like this; probable triggers for change would have appeared much earlier.

"Be careful, they are hard to reason with and are already intending to take action." Ji Qiuyue warned, noticing the stance they were taking was clearly aiming to attack them. They had War Armor, so safety wasn’t much of a concern, but Zhu Lei wasn’t protected by War Armor, so the danger was relatively higher.

Pang Yuan nodded and then quietly said, "Zhu Lei, later, move closer to us; don’t face them alone."

"I understand," Zhu Lei nodded.

After assigning tasks.

Ji Qiuyue looked at them solemnly and said, "I hope you’ll consider carefully. Once you take action, you become our enemy. We won’t hold back."

The few mutants before them were indeed not weak, but Ji Qiuyue felt she was stronger and didn’t think there was a big problem. She just didn’t want these guys to seek destruction. If these mutants could be brought over like Qiao Wei at the settlement, the certainty of finding the Mutant Organization behind them would be greater.

"Ridiculous, prepare to die."

One of the seven mutants roared without taking them seriously at all, then glanced at each other, viciously charging toward Ji Qiuyue and the others.

"I’ll handle the one without War Armor."

"The time for the hunt begins; let’s make them truly feel the taste of fear."

"This guy with the ax seems pretty average; I’ll take him on."

During the charge, they clearly mapped out their individual targets.

Instantly, a battle erupted.

Their formation was 223, with three mutants dealing with Ji Qiuyue, the rest targeting Pang Yuan and Zhu Lei.

Zhu Lei was the weakest in the team.

Being targeted by two mutants naturally increased the pressure significantly, but even so, facing the situation before him, Zhu Lei wasn’t intimidated in the slightest. He knew that following Ji Qiuyue and the others in action in the post-apocalypse, he would definitely encounter many dangers.

He wouldn’t be afraid, nor could he be afraid.

He wanted to be an upright person.

And not gradually become a helpless stray in the post-apocalyptic world at the settlement, as that wasn’t what he wanted.

"Hehehe, three of us against you alone, really looks like we’re bullying a woman, but we just love bullying people, love seeing that helpless look in despair in your eyes."

"Hehehehe..."

The three mutants surrounding Ji Qiuyue started talking trash before the battle.

This was part of their basic operation.

Ever since becoming mutants, they released themselves completely, defying everything. Besides members of the Mutant Organization, nobody else was worth their eyes.

"You ugly woman, go die."

Leading the charge was a burly man, his mouth had a tear-shaped scar, the wound looked like a centipede, giving a terrifying and imposing impression.
