Aromatic Flesh-Novel

After confirming that Gu MingYue would not become a burden to the whole team, she was finally allowed to follow the group from a safe distance. And why was it that she had to follow from a distance? That was probably because the men couldn’t bear the destructive olfactory stimulation.

Most of the zombies wandering the streets of this city had been cleaned up by several waves of human survivors searching for supplies, making it so that the remaining zombies were either locked up in a fixed building or located in a more secretive location, such as the sewers or the subway tunnels, which one wouldn’t notice unless they get close to such locations.

The group’s transportation was parked not far from the supermarket. It was a modified tourist bus reinforced with welded joints, while the chassis and tires were protected by metal armour. These modifications greatly enhanced and improved the strength and durability of the vehicle, which was very important in such an era. High-tech solar plates could be seen mounted on the roof of the bus, which provides solar energy to keep the bus moving in the case of running out of fuel.

Of course, such a huge refitting project cannot be completed in one day, and in fact, the parts used for the modifications were all scavenged from abandoned cars and shops. It took a lot of time and effort, however, the car is basically their home in these apocalyptic days, where they would rest at night, so it was definitely worth such efforts.

After a somewhat long walk, the group arrived at an empty area, but just as Gu MingYue glanced around curiously, she saw a glimmer in the empty space as soon later, the translucent barrier fell apart and revealed the tourist bus hidden within. This must’ve been the work of Jing Yao, who had stayed behind on the bus with Xi Wei. According to the original plot, this man had acquired his barrier-like support ability after the apocalypse happened, and it had the ability to create an entire dimension separated from the current space, easily blocking all sounds, heat sources and presence from anyone outside the barrier. And unless the enemy possesses the same ability and was on a higher level than him, nobody – including other people, mutated animals or zombies, would be able to even detect the existence of his barrier.

Jing Yao had a whole head of black and shiny hair, which was combed and set in well-defined layers, while his slightly longer bangs were set upwards to reveal his defined handsome face. His eyebrows were slightly slanted, while his eyes were deep and charming. His nose was high and defined, while his thin lips were slightly pursed as he stood coldly at the front of the car.

He nodded at his teammates in greeting before turning his sharp and inspecting gaze on Gu MingYue, who was standing quite a distance behind his teammates, and instantly noticing her unkempt face and hideously grimy hair.

His brows quickly furrowed together into a deep frown.

“That’s not a zombie, it’s our new teammate.” Bai JunFei patted Jing Yao’s shoulders in affirmation, even nodding his head vigorously for a few seconds to confirm the validity of his words, before getting into the car.

“There’s nothing suspicious about him right?” Jing Yao glanced at Gu MingYue, who was somewhat hesitant to walk near, with wary eyes before asking loudly. Apparently, he had not considered the possibility of Gu MingYue being a woman and had directly assumed that she was a sloppy and filthy man.

“She’s quite special, and we didn’t notice anything wrong with her so far. I’ll let you know the details later.” Bai JunFei turned around and waved at Gu MingYue, indicating that she could come forward.

Gu MingYue moved swiftly towards the bus door in huge steps and boarded the bus under Jing Yao’s inquisitive stare. But as soon as she entered the bus, An YiZe, who had been pinching his nose the entire time, quickly pointed and directed her to the bathroom, where she was forced to take a long bath.

Water was a rare commodity at such struggling times, but An YiZe was a skilled water-affinity ability user, and he was the one who single-handedly supported the daily water usage of the entire group. In fact, based on the two litres of drinking water that was consumed per person per day, the drinking water provided to this eight-member group was enough to consume a low-level water user’s mana for the entire day, hence, bathing was considered a huge luxury in the apocalyptic world.

However, even though it was considered extravagant, though he was struggling to maintain his mana, he still insisted to let Gu MingYue take a long shower, this clearly showed how horribly gruesome her ‘body fragrance’ was now.

As she walked into the bathroom, Gu MingYue hurriedly sneaked a glance at Xi Wei, who was alone in the kitchen area of the bus.

Xi Wei and his teammates wore the same camouflage trousers and a black cotton t-shirt, however, he also wore a while lab coat over his t-shirt and was standing near the kitchen platform, fiddling with experimental equipment and materials.

His height could only be regarded as a mid-bottom level if compared to his teammates, while his figure was slightly thinner and frailer than the others. His fluffy short hair neatly hung on his head while his brows were picturesque under his soft bangs. He also had a handsome nose bridge and cherry-red lips, which were extremely eye-catching against his white lustrous skin. In short, he was a handsome and somewhat feminine young man.

That’s all 7 men + main male lead = 8 in total! Let me know in the comments if ya’ll need me to list out a summary list for all of the men mentioned, I know if might be a little confusing due to the sheer amount of them RIP ??

Enjoy!!!
