Chapter 1123 The Amnesiac Black Panther and His Poor Little Beauty (4)

The Amnesiac Black Panther and His Poor Little Beauty (Part 4)

It was a ruin, dark, dry, and seemingly empty.

But Song Ning's hair stood on end, his breathing became much lighter, and his eyes were fixed on that direction without blinking.

Something exists in that place.

His intuition told him he must be right.

About ten minutes later, Song Ning's back was soaked with cold sweat, and the shadow moved.

He gasped for breath instantly.

A fully grown black cheetah emerged from the shadows.

It had probably been resting with its eyes closed. When it opened its eyes, its deep blue pupils were filled with the yellow vertical pupils that only beasts have. It had obviously noticed Song Ning a long time ago. Its front paws gently stepped on the ground without making a sound.

Song Ning clenched his fists, his lips pale, and examined the large feline. The cheetah was about 1.8 meters tall, a full adult, and its fur looked smooth and shiny, indicating that it had extremely strong hunting abilities to keep itself so well-fed.

The question is, are humans on this cheetah's hunting list?

Song Ning didn't dare to gamble; he wanted to run away, but he gave up after only a second.

Even though thirteen years have passed since the apocalypse, his past experiences watching animal documentaries still allow him to clearly recognize that a cheetah's explosive power is more than enough to catch ten of him.

What should I do?

A large amount of sweat beaded on Song Ning's forehead. The scorching heat and the freezing cold were simultaneously affecting him. He held his breath and his eyes quickly scanned the ruins around him, as if he had found a way to escape.

But before he could see clearly, he suddenly felt everything go black!

He fell backward to the ground with a thud, and a huge black panther loomed over him, casting a shadow that seemed to pronounce death upon him.

"Heh, heh."

Song Ning subconsciously closed his eyes, making an ambiguous sound in his throat. His fingers trembled as he fumbled for the only weapon he could use—the lighter he had brought from Li Dabiao's room.

But when he tried to pull out a lighter to attack the black panther in front of him, Song Ning realized that his limbs, which had been running all night, were already filled with exhaustion, down to every finger.

His mind was racing, but his fingers were sluggish and heavy. The lighter fell to the concrete floor with a 'clatter' the moment it was pulled out, due to his clumsy fingers.

Song Ning closed her eyes in despair.

For a moment, he was even thinking about something else: the piece of spare rib that he had carefully brought out of his backpack. He should have eaten that first.

One second passed, then ten seconds, and it felt like an eternity. Song Ning went from despair to confusion, and then slowly opened her eyes.

The black panther's vertical pupils instantly came into view. Before Song Ning could even feel afraid, he noticed that the yellowish vertical pupils had become round, and the deep blue in the pupils had taken over most of the space, losing its original lethality.

Song Ning was puzzled, but his fingers quickly reached for the lighter and gripped it tightly.

The black panther stared at him as it slowly lowered its head. Song Ning almost stopped breathing, his mind filled with only one thought: would a lighter really work against the black panther?

Before he could figure it out, a feline's distinctive tongue with small barbs licked him.

Song Ning was stunned. He opened his eyes, his mind filled with questions.

What's happening here?

The black panther stared at him with its deep blue vertical pupils, lowered its head and gently tried to pry open the clothes covering Song Ning's face with its muzzle, but Song Ning had wrapped himself up tightly. After several attempts, the black panther was obviously annoyed and revealed its hidden sharp fangs, wanting to bite.

Song Ning broke out in a cold sweat. He didn't have time to think about why the black panther wasn't eating him but instead acted like a spoiled kitten cuddling with its owner. He only knew that he would rather have his face licked by the black panther than face its sharp, white fangs.

"I can do it myself, don't rush me."

He practically ripped the clothes off his face, and as the dry, dusty air rushed into his mouth and nose, the black panther's tongue gently licked his cheek.

Song Ning remained seated, waiting warily for Black Panther's next move.

The black cheetah licked his cheeks all over, then looked down at him with its round eyes for a long time, as if it were thinking.

Song Ning's despair and fear have largely subsided, replaced by confusion and bewilderment.

He really couldn't understand what the cheetah was doing or thinking.

However, it didn't take long before the black panther nimbly jumped off him.

It took a few steps forward, then turned around as if signaling Song Ning to follow.

Song Ning understood but hesitated. He stood up but didn't move.

The black panther took a few more steps forward, and realizing that the humans weren't following, it turned around and walked towards Song Ning.

Now Song Ning understood her passive position. She took a deep breath, picked up her clothes, quickly stuffed them into her backpack, and then followed.

"Come on, where are you taking me?"

Once Black Panther was certain that the man would follow, he began to move nimbly through the ruins.

The ruins were better than Song Ning had imagined, especially since he had seen several well-preserved pre-apocalyptic shops along the route Black Panther led him on. He hadn't even seen any humans or zombies along the way, which made Song Ning's tense nerves relax a little.

Halfway there, he saw a workwear store that had been vandalized. His sensitivity as a post-apocalyptic being compelled him to boldly call out to the black panther in front of him.

"Um, Brother Leopard?"

Song Ning tried to address the other party with a human honorific, and the black panther turned around, revealing a human-like expression of confusion on its dark face.

For some reason, Song Ning suddenly breathed a sigh of relief and tentatively pointed in the direction of the workwear store.

"I don't know where you're taking me, but there's something I want there. May I go take a look first?"

Black Panther leaped from the high ground of the ruins, easily closing the distance that Song Ning thought was still a long way off. He gasped in shock.

Could it be that the black panther's leisurely pace was actually taking care of this useless human?

He was still amazed by the black panther's agility when the large black cat had already circled him several times.

Song Ning lowered her head, and something suddenly wrapped around her wrist.

He turned his head and saw the black panther's nimble tail behind him.

Song Ning:?

The stiff, powerful tail wrapped around his wrist and tugged at it, pointing towards the safety equipment store.

Song Ning was overjoyed and bowed his head to confirm with the other party.

"Can I come in?"

Without letting go of its tail, the black panther walked straight ahead.

Song Ning was forced to stoop slightly as he moved forward, but even in this disheveled state, the smile on his face remained undiminished.

When he entered the labor protection store and saw that there were still quite a few usable supplies, his face, which had been moistened by the steam, blossomed into the most radiant smile he had seen since the end of the world.

"Brother Leopard, wait a moment, I'll grab something and be right back!"
