Chapter 15: Arm that shone black
The few students were stunned and took a few seconds to react.
“I, I didn’t see it…”
One of them said and was a little embarrassed. He was obviously feeling guilty because Ye Zhongming saved him but he was unable to help.
Ye Zhongming looked at the rest and they all shook their heads. They said that they saw the light but didn’t notice where it landed at.
Outside, downstairs, in the courtyard were all monsters wanting to eat them. One could see blood and corpses all around. They were on the verge of collapse. They were hoping for people to come to save them and not some weird light outside.
He was slightly disappointed. It seemed like he had to go search for them himself. Fortunately, this was his alma mater and although it wasn’t small, but he was familiar. He just needed to spend some time to find it and others might get to it first.
But there was no choice. Since the apocalypse began, it meant that he had to live in this hell. Not only did one have to have strength, but he also had to have luck.
“I think, Teacher Park said she saw it.”
A guy wearing high-class clothing and wearing gold spectacles said which made Ye Zhongming’s eyes light up.
“Who is Teacher Park?”
When the guy heard someone holding a bloodstained blade ask a question, he said, “Our class’s mentor, she was trapped with us in the classroom, she is there now.”
He pointed at the classroom they fled out of.
So that teacher was still trapped in that classroom.
Save or not?
Looking at that square with close to a hundred zombies, Ye Zhongming frowned.
He could kill those zombies but he couldn’t ensure that he wouldn’t get injured at all. Before he got immunity, injury, and death meant the same thing.
From a rational standpoint, he shouldn’t take the risk. But the Secret Realm Key was hugely attractive to him. He was afraid that others would get it first.
He balanced it out and made his choice.
Save!
Even if it was risky, he wouldn’t give up hope of getting the key. The Secret Realm was just too attractive.
“Do you see the three story building?” Ye Zhongming pointed to some old buildings, that was where the school’s armed forces building. There was also a storage room. It was slightly busy when there was army training for new students but there were few people there usually.
“Hide there.”
Hearing Ye Zhongming say that, the long haired girl felt anxious. She wasn’t old but she had spent some time in the society. She was afraid but her mind was clear. As compared to this guy, these students were noobs. They would even stumble when running and their stamina was weaker than hers. Asking her to be with them? What a joke! That would reduce the safety that she was in by a large amount.
“You can’t abandon me.” Upstodatee from n(0)/v𝒆/lbIn/.(co/m
She was anxious and wanted to pull Ye Zhongming back. But looking at his bright eyes, she retracted her hand. She was a little fearful of her lifesaver.
But she raised the mutated branch in her hands, “I still need to carry this for you.”
“Aren’t you Liang Chuyin?” A student shouted and he recognised their familiar beauty.
When the others heard that, they all recalled. The beauty who was begging was the goddess of nerds like them. A popular singer, a famous model, a spokesperson for online games. A famous person with millions of fans!
Even when facing dangers and many zombies, such a chance didn’t exist often. To many of them who could only use their phones and laptops to watch videos while using their other hand to do something else, these students were excited and were filled with adrenaline.
Liang Chuyin just rolled her eyes and didn’t bother about these students who spent a lot of money on tissues. She just looked toward Ye Zhongming.
The branch would be a good weapon and he was reluctant to just toss it. He thought about it and said solemnly, “Go there and wait, after that, I will bring you all to a safe place.”
After which, he looked at the positions of the zombie hoard before running in another direction. He ran while making some noises with the axe to attract the zombies.
“What if there are zombies there?” The student with spectacles who was from a decent background raised his voice to say.
Although there weren’t many people there but it didn’t mean that it was safe.
“Kill yourself, if not you have no right to survive in the apocalypse.”
A reply spread from afar that sent the students and Liang Chuyin into silence.
…………………………………………………………………………………………
A large group of zombies was drawn over. Using his one star evolved advantage, he wrapped to the back of the building and climbed up the pipes. That wasn’t too difficult for him.
When he reached the 4th floor, he jumped to the window.
Downstairs, a bunch of zombies was already there. They could only walk in circles and didn’t understand why they couldn’t find the food that they could smell.
He was lucky and the window was open. Ye Zhongming jumped in.
There was blood on the walls and there were bloody marks on the clean floor too. All this showed that something terrible had occurred here.
He stepped across broken arms and he noticed that all the zombies from the corridor were gathered in one room. There weren’t many but it was still a large amount, there were over ten of them that was scratching the door.
He didn’t head forwards and just took a few chairs. He then whistled at them to draw these bloodthirsty monsters over.
Looking at them get close, Ye Zhongming tossed the chairs beneath their feet to trip some of them and slow down others. Then the dozen of them could only come in waves and it made it easier.
One star evolved could kill one-star zombies easily. Moreover, Ye Zhongming’s experience and skills were all gathered in his body. In a blink, half of them fell and died.
Seeing that his goal was about to be reached, an accident occurred.
When Ye Zhongming thrust the blade into the head of one of the zombies, a black figure pounced. Its speed was no slower than Ye Zhongming who had just evolved. A stench struck him and at the same time, he saw an arm that was glowing black!
