Pain hit her shoulder and Chi Xin suddenly let go of all of her strength. The knife pierced her chest but at the last moment, she turned the blade's direction slightly and it stabbed the green pendant mark instead.

Chi Xin panted heavily and her eyes gradually became clear. All the people in the room were huddled in the corner and watched all of this in horror. Only Jing Xiubai was very close to her, blood at the corner of his mouth.

[Bip, bip, bip.... Warning... warning... the host's behavior is detected to be seriously out of control... requesting support... bip... bip... error detected... the host refuses to hand over the control of the body...]

The more the system tried to speak, the vaguer and disturbed it became.

[Error detected... bip... repair... waiting... kill...]

After a few more ominous words, the voice weakened until it disappeared entirely.

"System?"

Chi Xin yelled in her head.

Silence.

Joy and sorrow spread on Chi Xin's face. She didn't move but nobody dared to and it wasn't until a long time Jing Xiubai said: "Chi Xin, I am going to take your knife away." His voice was very soft and gentle, "We have no intention of attacking."

Chi Xin raised her eyes and looked at him. Without the system's control, she naturally wouldn't attack them.

"No need."

The pain in her shoulder made her want to cry a little and for the first time in her life, she had never been so grateful for her facial paralysis.

She held her shoulder, put it back in its axis, and stood up from the ground. Her movements were too precise as if she had relocated her shoulder many times before, making her stunned for a moment.

Wasn't the system gone?

But the incredible power in her body had not weakened at all, only the sound of the system was gone. She felt no other difference.

Chi Xin looked around and stared at the mess she had caused. Jing Xiubai was injured and Yu Xiang was not much better. Jiang Congyun was treating the two of them and they were all looking at her with worry.

Chi Xin lowered her head and looked at her heart. Turbulent emotions surged and she felt alive for the first time since she had come to this apocalyptic world.

Jiang Congyun approached her carefully. A pale light wrapped around her and the dull pain of her shoulder gradually eased.

"Chi Xin, I wasn't lying. The space is my thank you, you don't need to give it back to me."

Chi Xin looked at her and suddenly smiled.

"Thank you, but I don't like to owe things."

She picked up the knife again in the shocked eyes of everyone. She wiped the blood on her chest and the green mark appeared on her white collarbone. Without the control of the system, Chi Xin pulled the pendant out with the tip of the blade and gently placed it on the table beside her.

"You already know how to bind it, just drop blood on it." She smiled again and added, "I don't owe you anything now."

"Chi Xin..." Yu Xiang's eyes were a little red and he couldn't find his words.

Without the shackles of the system or the sword hanging above her head all the time, Chi Xin showed a real expression for the first time. Her eyes were playful and gentle, the one that seemed to scream freedom. She wasn't restricted anymore and could say or do as she wanted and she couldn't help but find out that the protagonist group was not as troublesome as she had always thought.

When they had believed she was going to kill herself, they had all tried to save her.

Chi Xin moved her shoulder, deeply grateful for Jiang Congyun's healing power. It was no wonder someone wanted to get rid of her first.

"Thank you." She sincerely thanked the heroine.

Jiang Congyun shook her head in a daze; Chi Xin looked different. In the past, she had surrounded herself by an impenetrable shield and her smile had always been indifferent and defensive. But at this moment, her eyes were full of smiles and despite the sweat and blood covering herself, she had never been so beautiful.

Chi Xin pushed Jiang Congyun away gently and walked to Zhang Zhi. After this series of events, the boy had completely collapsed. Seeing Chi Xin approach, he screamed and tried to hide in the corner.

Chi Xin squatted down and looked at him with sharp eyes.

"Tell the person behind you to deal with things by herself and not do those tricks anymore." She could guess who was behind Zhang Zhi but she had not expected Han Yiyi's hatred was strong enough to modify the plot.

She thought for a little while and looked back at the protagonists: "How much longer will you stay here?"

Yu Xiang suddenly became anxious: "What do you mean? Aren't you staying?"

When Chi Xin didn't answer, he wanted to rush over but Jing Xiubai grabbed him by the collar of his shirt.

Chi Xin stood up and looked him in the eyes.

"Have you made a decision?" He asked.

"I have never been so sure." She replied.

Jing Xiubai nodded and ignored Yu Xiang and Jiang Congyun's pleading looks. He took a step forward and said: "Take care."

Chi Xin really felt it at this moment, the hero understood her. Base L had never been her home and plot or not, she couldn't stay here for long. She stretched out her hand: "It was a pleasure working with you."

It was time to leave and Chi Xin was indeed happy to have cooperated with them. Jing Xiubai held her hand somewhat preciously and whispered: "We will meet again."

At last, Chi Xin pointed to Zhang Zhi who was curled into a ball. She waved to Jiang Congyun and an almost crying Yu Xiang before turning around and stepping out of the room resolutely.

But before she could take a few steps, she met other acquaintances. Chen Xing, Yu Pengcheng, and Rong Feng had also been invited to the small party; they had been locked out by Jing Xiubai's wall but had witnessed everything that had happened inside.

Seeing Chi Xin coming out, Chen Xing and Yu Pengcheng's eyes were full of awe. Chi Xin nodded to them and raised her face to look at Rong Feng: "I forgot to tell you that your army knife was taken away."

A rare yet beautiful smile appeared on Rong Feng's face: "It doesn't matter."

"I will try to get it back." Chi Xin thought of the weird Zombie King and added, "But there is no guarantee."

Rong Feng looked at her deeply: "I can go find it with you."

Chi Xin lowered her eyes, pursed her lips, and smiled. Her smile was gentle and reserved, just like the wealthy young lady she had been before.

"Goodbye."

Chi Xin walked away and raised her hand to wave to everyone as she disappeared in the distance.

Alone, to her unknown destiny.

No one stopped her and no one dared to.

Chi Xin didn't take anything and directly left the base. Looking back at the place she had only stayed since she had transmigrated, she couldn't help but remember the day she had been forced to jump from this big wall.

The journey ahead of her was long and the road was uncertain but she was relaxed. The only pity was the Desert Eagle that had accompanied her since the beginning would be missed.

She sighed with regret. The space had been returned to the heroine and she had just lost a huge apocalyptic cheat...

What?

Chi Xin stared at the gun that had suddenly appeared in her hand. The familiar feel of the body told her right away it was her favorite gun.

No way?

Chi Xin's consciousness went into the space as she used to and she saw the piles of guns, clothes, and food, and all the various cosmetics the original Chi Xin had previously stored...

It was clearly the space she had returned.
