Enchantress [1]

As the world enters June, after more than six months of zombies and mutant plants and animals, the entire planet – the home of humanity – is left devastated and dead.

As the wheel of time moved forward, the infected species became more resilient and have adapted to their current environment, even reproducing, as the major populations continued to pass on their genes in a competitive evolution.

After an initial period of panic, the intelligent primates that had ruled the planet for millions of years – the human race – broke out with a strong sense of survival in their bones and, under the leadership of the heads of the major bases, reluctantly began to organise themselves to deal with the mutated creatures and the poor state of the planet. Although this post-apocalyptic world is still full of darkness, bloodshed, killing and war chaos due to the imperfection of various laws and regulations, it is much better than at the beginning of the post-apocalyptic world.

Most of the countries disintegrated during the catastrophe, and teams, bases, city-states and gangs of all sizes emerged, divided along geographical lines. The continents of Europe and Africa were already full of countries before the end of the world, but after the end of the world there was a lot of war and chaos.

Battles between humans and other humans and mutated creatures are breaking out all the time, as if others; whether it is human beings or other life form has become an abomination that has to be removed!

In the Americas, the major cities are dominated by the powerful, and although there is a lot of friction between them, they are still at peace with the threat of the powerful mutants. The Eastern Asian lands are already densely populated, and now they are even more heavily affected by the zombie and mutant creatures. The two giants of the military have their own armies and are a formidable force. Many ancient families that originally are not part of the world [2] have seized cities to set up bases, with the Song family in the north, the Lu family in Shanghai and the Zhu family in the southwest being the most famous.

Based on the number of people in the base, the number of ability users, the number of high-ranking combatants, and the war reserve, people have divided the bases into village bases, township bases, county bases, city bases, and provincial bases.

The hierarchical division of bases allows the strength of the major organisations in the post-apocalyptic world to be distinguished at a glance. In the post-apocalyptic world, annexations and wars do take place, and many low-level bases start to defect to the big bases in order to survive, thus gaining a lot of opportunities for survival.

Yes, there is no good life in the post-apocalyptic world, only survival.

Although the zombies and other mutated creatures continued to be purged, many mutated creatures below the level 2 were still not immune to most of the modern cold weapons that existed before the end of the world. After the distribution of weapons such as swords, daggers and even guns by various organisations, humanity was finally able to withstand the onslaught of mutated creatures.

This catastrophe is unlike any other in the history of the past millions of years. It has swept the world, and it is not about justice or morality.

Whether the mutated creatures will eliminate the humans and become the new overlords of the planet or whether the humans will destroy the mutated creatures to survive, the end times have only just begun and nothing is known yet.

A small sound rang out as Shen Qingjia expressionlessly slit the throat of the man in front of him, while looking sideways at the other man in black who was unable to move on the ground, revealing the longbow slung over her shoulder.

Her fingers lightly stroked the smooth surface of the longbow, Shen Qingjia’s mood was light and her tone was even lighter, “I call this bow the Sirius Bow, the bow body is made of a level 4 wind ability mutant giant tree and meteorite metal refined with level 4 flame for 3 days as the bowstring, both the penetration and the sharpness of the bowstring are outstanding… So, do you want to be pierced through the heart by my arrows, or have your skin cut off by the bowstring bit by bit?”

She stared into the eyes of the man in black and said slowly, “I wouldn’t mind killing one more person.”

The outskirts of the city, deep in the mountains and surrounded by dense forests, are indeed a perfect place for killing people and disposing of corpses.

The man in black finally couldn’t stand the threat and broke down emotionally, “I…I tell the truth!!!”

“Speak.”

“In order to expand the base, the Zhu family will attack another base in the city tomorrow, and there will be a special ability team in charge of the sneak attack. As for which special ability team I really don’t know…”

“How many people are left in the inner city of Zhu family Base to defend?”

The inner city is where the Zhu family leader lives.

“There are said to be a thousand.”

As soon as the words fell, Shen Qingjia sighed, the dagger in her hand pierced his heart and two fireballs landed on the two corpses. The temperature of the level 4 flame reached thousands of degrees, the body was burned to ashes in an instant and there was not even time to scream.

No matter the living or the dead, under this scorching flame, all turn back from dust to dust.

These days, she has been hunting Zhu family’s ability team members who go out to complete tasks almost every day and at the same time Zhu family is more and more vigilant about her. Now even if she wants to kill Zhu family’s ability team members with ease like it was at the beginning it is no longer possible.

When the man in black said his statement, Shen Qingjia knew it was a lie. How could an insignificant member of the ability team know about the Zhu family’s strategic deployment? It was just to confuse her. Even the Zhu family’s wise family head probably already knew that she wouldn’t fall for it and was just trying to scare her off. After all, the Zhu family could not find Shen Qingjia, who could hide her trail and finding and killing her would not only be costly for the Zhu family, but also useless.

The only reason why Shen Qingjia is still able to flee for her life with ease is because Shen Qingjia has not yet touched the Zhu family’s true core interests. Facing the Zhu family, which is so powerful, Shen Qingjia does not dare to take it lightly for a moment.

Facing Zhu Hui, she has to remind herself not to be blinded by hatred alone!

“Ah la la ~ what a fool, clearly this beauty has said that she doesn’t mind killing one more person, what’s the use of you saying more.” A very nice female voice suddenly came from behind her, even the end of her voice carried a flirty meaning.

Shen Qingjia instantly turned around and drew her bow, the bowstring was as taut as the full moon, a dazzling flame arrow flew into shape and then shot like a storm at a tall tree.

There was a violent explosion and the tree, which could only be held by two people with open arms, was instantly torn apart! Flames blazed and smoke rose up!

A flaming arrow on Shen Qingjia’s longbow converged again in an instant, pointing to another tall tree and the devouring light once again lit up without hidden, “Your Excellency, [3] are you enjoying watching the show?”

“Ho!” A figure jumped down from the tall tree, elegant and light, like a piece of feather landing, “The main character is pure beauty and elegance but the supporting characters are a bit of an eyesore. So, bad review yo~” [4]

The visitor gently raised their face with smiling eyebrows and curved eyes, and in this moment even someone as gloomy as Shen Qingjia, she felt that the world in front of her suddenly brightened up.

Even the most dazzling and beautiful things in the world, such as the sunshine in the sky, the colourful sunset above the mountain, the stars in the blue sky and the fog in Mountain Penglai [5] reduced to be a few glimmers of light in that person’s eyes when she smiled brightly.

The sunlight is dim, but when it reflects on her face, which was born with a soaring aura, it is like a phoenix raising its wings, fluttering in the sky, dazzling everyone.

This woman in her early twenties is probably the legendary natural born enchantress, [6] the ultimate charming beauty. There is no need to deliberately pose, no need to worry about make-up and style at all times, her brows, smiles, words and actions, every part of her body is interpreting the unique grace and beauty of a woman.

This beauty is beyond gender, beyond all boundaries, most people in this world who are not blind will probably want to approach her, touch her, embrace her, make her smile, make her so happy she cry from joy and then put the world’s treasures in front of her for her to pick, and dig their hearts out in front of her to make her smile again……

This is a face that deserves to be called the most beautiful of all time! That is the glamour that should overwhelm the world!

The ‘enchantress’ looked at Shen Qingjia carefully, with a smile at the corners of her eyes, “Are you the one who has been destroying the two Zhu family’s ability squads one after another this month? Based on the rumour, I thought you will have 6 arms and 8 legs!”

Shen Qingjia stared at her expressionlessly.

“But those are not important!” The enchantress smiled lazily, the smile on the corner of her lips burning like fire, “I’m here this time mainly to recruit troops. So, do you want to join me?”

Shen Qingjia stared at her expressionlessly.

The enchantress had a smile on her face and her long, curly eyelashes looked like delicate fans, “Introduce us: our Peace base is in the neighbouring city of C. It belongs to the city-level base, and the founder is the head of the group, Yang Mu. I myself probably can be considered the deputy head. The base is just starting to be built and there is a shortage of talent, so you can be a leading officer as soon as you come in.”

Shen Qingjia stared at her expressionlessly.

The enchantress tangled her fingers in her long hair a few times and looked at Shen Qingjia with interest, “Love, before you refuse, there are ten level 4 experts behind me and so you can’t say no~”

The woman’s tone was frivolous, and even the end of her voice had an unserious, slutty ring to it. But behind her, in the woods, as she had said, ten powerful auras rose to the sky, causing birds and cicadas to chirp and leaves to flutter. Ten figures emerged from the depths of the woods, men and women, young and old, all with the same aura of the rising sun.

“I am a sharp blade, want to force me ……”

Shen Qingjia stared at her expressionlessly, the longbow in her hand was once again taut, the tip of the arrow flickered, this light spread to her whole body, the person and the bow seemed to be connected to become one, countless fierce winds converged and twisted around her, the sky was full of murderous energy and flaming arrows shot together at the woman with the seductive face!

“Then you have to be sharper than me!”

Translator’s notes :

[1] 妖精般女子; so Chinese’s author likes to use ‘woman who are as beautiful as fairy’ and honestly I don’t mind use it, however I choose ‘enchantress’ because well, see number 6.

[2] Alright so I found this paragraph unclear. There is no mention of who ‘two giants of the military’ aka the name and I don’t know enough about politics to substitute it so yeah, apologise if this part is vague. Also, ‘not part of the world’, I assume, an ancient family that usually deals underground? I mean, based on the description of Zhu’s family you can tell they are shady. Just a note and my 2 cents.

[3]  阁下; yes another title, this time this simply means as the English one.

[4] yes this new character love to use ~

[5] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mount_Penglai

[6] So yeah, this is basically the same as the title. As I said before, direct translation is fairies but I choose enchantress because enchantress makes it flow better in my opinion. Comments are appreciated.

So, a new character. She is someone who has been hinted at before, you might be surprised at her identity lol I mean I do when I read the next chapter. Well, next chapter is on next week so stay tuned ~
