Let Me Run an Experiment First!

"F**K!!"

Seeing his companion abandon him and run away.

The young Black man cried out in shock and fury.

Then.

An even more outrageous move came next.

The guy actually pulled a handgun from his pocket. Instead of aiming it at the zombie, he fired repeatedly in the direction his companion had fled.

"Bang! Bang! Bang..."

He emptied the entire magazine.

Chen Ye was utterly speechless.

What kind of thought process made someone waste all their bullets on a companion at a time like this?

It was idiotic beyond belief.

Now that he had emptied his magazine, how was he supposed to fight the zombie?

Although bullets were useless against zombies, they could at least slow one down and buy him a slim chance of survival.

And now, not only had he failed to hit the companion who abandoned him—the man had already vanished—but the young Black man, poisoned and stiff-limbed, could only stay behind and wait for death.

By then, the zombie had reached him. It looked down at its prey and opened its blood-filled maw.

"Shit, shit..."

The young Black man screamed in terror as he scrambled backward.

But things had already reached this point. Unless a miracle happened, his fate was sealed...

Chen Ye and Tang Zichen.

Were hiding behind a large tree, watching everything unfold.

Neither of them considered taking this chance to escape.

Their main purpose in entering the secret realm was to hunt zombies. They could not run just because the zombies looked terrifying.

In fact.

After looking at the zombie for a while, Chen Ye no longer found it all that frightening.

Of course.

His confidence came from the immense power in his body.

"&*%￥@

￥..."

At that moment, the young Black man shouted something at the zombie.

Chen Ye did not understand it, so he quietly asked Tang Zichen, "What did that guy just say?"

As expected of a top student, Tang Zichen understood english as well. Her expression remained calm as she said, "He said his private life was a mess, and that he had long been infected with HIV and syphilis. If the Jumping Corpse ate him, it would catch them too."

Chen Ye: "..."

Clearly.

The zombie did not care about the young Black man's threat.

"Ah!!"

Accompanied by a scream.

The scene became extremely bloody!

The zombie had bitten into the young Black man's neck, lowering its head and gulping down his blood.

Very quickly.

From excessive blood loss, the young Black man's dark face turned somewhat ashen.

The life gradually faded from his eyes as well...

Seeing this, Chen Ye turned to look at Tang Zichen beside him.

The girl's profile was beautiful, and she remained calm throughout. She showed no intention of stopping it or rescuing him, nor did she seem afraid.

Chen Ye let out a slight sigh of relief.

He had been afraid she might have a bleeding heart and intervene because she could not bear to watch.

Now, it seemed.

Tang Zichen was far calmer than he had imagined.

As if sensing his gaze, Tang Zichen said without turning her head, "You should not be looking at me. This is how a Jumping Corpse hunts. You should memorize it so you can be prepared next time."

Hearing that, Chen Ye silently gave her a thumbs-up.

Cool-headed enough!

But he did not need to.

The way this zombie bit people was exactly like in the movies.

It first grabbed a person's shoulders with both hands to hold its prey in place, then bit down.

Still, there was a bug here!

Normally, zombies held both arms straight out, as though they could not bend them. Yet once they grabbed someone, they immediately became flexible...

Before long.

The young Black man became a corpse.

A desiccated corpse!

Every drop of blood in his body had been sucked dry by the zombie.

The zombie had probably gone too long without blood and was starving. Draining a strong young man was not enough. After tossing aside the desiccated corpse in its hands, it began sniffing around again.

Very soon.

Its scarlet eyes turned toward where Chen Ye and Tang Zichen were hiding.

It seemed to have discovered them.

Seeing this, Tang Zichen said softly, "Teacher Liu was right. The Jumping Corpse's nose is indeed very sensitive. It can smell the scent of humans."

Chen Ye did not correct her wording. Instead, he asked, "It has already found us. Can you handle it?"

"Shouldn't be a problem!"

Tang Zichen sounded very confident.

After saying that, she stood up and calmly faced the zombie.

Chen Ye stood to one side, ready to watch the show.

When the zombie saw Tang Zichen emerge, it immediately bared its fangs, let out a low growl, and hopped toward her.

Tang Zichen did not hesitate. The two darts in her hands flew out in an instant.

At the same time.

Green light flared around her body.

Telekinesis activated.

"Whoosh! Whoosh!"

Under the control of her telekinesis, the two darts actually tore through the air. One struck the zombie's forehead, while the other hit its throat.

They were incredibly precise!

It was clear that Tang Zichen's month of grueling training had not been wasted.

Her control over the darts had already reached the point where they moved as naturally as her own limbs.

However.

The zombie only howled after taking those two hits before continuing to pounce toward Tang Zichen.

It did not seem to have been affected much.

Tang Zichen frowned.

Teacher Liu had said that Jumping Corpses were difficult to kill.

But their tough hide was still beyond her expectations.

At school, Tang Zichen had tested it. Darts controlled by her telekinesis could already pierce through a five-centimeter-thick steel plate!

Yet they could not pierce the zombie's head.

At that moment, both darts were still embedded in the zombie's body and could not be retrieved.

Her first attack had failed.

Someone with a weaker mentality would probably have started to panic by now.

But Tang Zichen's lovely face quickly regained its calm.

She took two more darts from her waist.

She had brought three pairs of alloy darts, six in total.

And every pair was different.

This time, Tang Zichen took out disc-shaped alloy darts. Their edges were extremely sharp, fitted with serrated teeth.

Then the green light around Tang Zichen blazed brightly...

Next.

Chen Ye felt as though he were watching a flawless, extravagant dart performance!

The two disc-shaped darts, guided by Tang Zichen's telekinesis, traced all sorts of unbelievable flight paths as they continuously sliced through the zombie's arms and legs.

"Pfft! Pfft! Pfft..."

The sound of flesh being cut rang out without pause.

Tang Zichen was very smart.

Since she could not kill the zombie directly with her darts, she chose to cripple its ability to move first.

It had to be said.

Her plan worked very well.

Before long.

Under the slicing of the sharp darts, the zombie was finally reduced to a human stump. Its limbs and head were all severed by Tang Zichen.

Of course, the alloy darts being sharp enough to accomplish this also played no small part.

Besides, the zombies in the secret realm were not high-level. They were merely the most ordinary low-level zombies...

Very soon, the zombie was dismembered. Though it was not dead, it could no longer move.

And from beginning to end, Tang Zichen had remained standing in the same spot without taking a single step.

The zombie could not even get close to her.

The advantage of a mage was displayed to the fullest at that moment.

It was incredibly cool!

It was just that the green light constantly radiating from her body whenever she used telekinesis did not look very good...

Her entirely green appearance gave people unfortunate associations.

At any rate, Chen Ye was not jealous in the slightest.

"Chen Ye, burn it to death with fire!"

Tang Zichen said.

Her tone sounded somewhat tired.

It seemed that the previous barrage had consumed quite a bit of her mental power.

"Wait a moment."

Chen Ye took several bottles and jars from his box.

"Let me run an experiment first!"
