Chapter 40: Chen Ye Makes His Move (Seeking Follow-up Reads)
Surrounded by a horde of zombies.
All the surviving freshmen, including Tang Zichen, wore expressions of despair!
Except for Chen Ye…
At this moment, Chen Ye's face showed no trace of panic. Instead, he was incredibly excited, his eyes shining brightly.
He never imagined that this evolved zombie would actually have the ability to summon small zombies!!
Jackpot.
This was going to be huge!
Once he captured the evolved zombie, wouldn't he have as many small zombies as he wanted?
They couldn't be killed, they just kept coming…
According to Old Liu, each small zombie was worth about six potential points. So, if he killed hundreds or thousands of them?
Wouldn't he skyrocket in power in one go?
Thinking of this, Chen Ye's hands trembled with excitement.
Tang Zichen noticed Chen Ye's abnormality (she couldn't see his face) and assumed he was trembling from fear. A look of guilt immediately appeared on her pretty face.
"Chen Ye, I'm sorry!"
"If I hadn't been so arrogant, thinking I could help you in the Secret Realm and team up with you, you wouldn't be in such a desperate situation now."
"I've dragged you down…"
Chen Ye: ???
He wasn't an idiot.
Seeing the girl's guilty expression, he knew she had misunderstood.
Then, Chen Ye began his clever act.
He sighed dramatically, as if to put on a show, and said, "Class monitor, don't blame yourself. I know you wanted to team up with me because you were looking out for me, and I don't blame you."
Hearing this, the kind-hearted Tang Zichen felt even more guilty.
Chen Ye continued, "Actually, I'm not afraid of dying. It's just that I have one wish that hasn't been fulfilled, and I feel it would be a pity to die like this…"
"What wish?" Tang Zichen asked instinctively.
"It's a bit embarrassing to talk about."
Although Chen Ye said this, his face showed no embarrassment. "Class monitor, hearing that a beautiful girl like you can cry for a long time after just one punch… can you let me experience it?"
Tang Zichen: "……"
"Ahaha, I just thought you were too nervous, so I was trying to lighten the mood with a joke."
"Chen Ye, what time is it now… Are you really not afraid of death?"
"Of course, I'm afraid!"
Chen Ye smiled. "But we're not going to die today!"
Tang Zichen was about to say something else…
Just then.
Suddenly, a figure rushed towards Chen Ye at high speed.
It was that Japanese youth from before!
Tang Zichen was highly alert. She immediately forgot about Chen Ye, and a green light surged from her body as she quickly moved in front of him, shielding him.
"What do you want?"
The girl, holding a dart, took a fighting stance and questioned him sternly.
The Japanese youth seemed anxious and shouted, "He has something the monsters are afraid of. Tang Zichen, quickly make him hand it over, and we can escape together."
He deliberately spoke loudly to attract the attention of others.
This tactic was indeed effective.
Instantly.
Several people heard his words and crowded around.
It turned out that when this scoundrel fled earlier, he had just witnessed Chen Ye using glutinous rice against the evolved zombie. Now, seeing no way out, he thought of the glutinous rice Chen Ye had.
Tang Zichen's pretty face turned cold as she replied with two words:
"Dream on!"
Not to mention that these people had tried to kill her earlier.
Just the glutinous rice was Chen Ye's last sliver of hope, and she would never agree.
The surrounding zombies were increasing in number, and the evolved zombie had also noticed their side. The situation was becoming more dangerous.
The Japanese youth immediately panicked, his face contorted with rage, "Baga, don't push me!"
The surrounding people also looked ready to snatch it by force.
Their attention was focused on Tang Zichen and the zombies around them, and they didn't notice how cold the expression of the man who had been losing hair recently had become!
This little Baga actually wanted to snatch Chen Ye's glutinous rice? What a bastard.
"You want this thing, right?"
Chen Ye took out the bag of glutinous rice and suddenly smiled, "Watch this!"
As his voice fell.
He grabbed the bag of glutinous rice and tossed it gently, throwing the bag directly at the evolved zombie's feet...
At this moment, Chen Ye truly understood Li Zairong's feelings.
Killing these bastards directly would be too easy for them.
He wanted them to experience the pain of despair before they died!
Oh.
Right.
That good-for-nothing Li Zairong had just been bitten to death by a small zombie.
Chen Ye had seen it clearly.
The guy hadn't resisted at all the entire time.
He had died peacefully.
Everyone around was stunned by Chen Ye's actions.
Then, the Japanese youth and the others felt their heads buzz, feeling like they were going crazy!
To have him pick up glutinous rice at the evolved zombie's feet?
It would be more satisfying to just kill themselves.
With their last hope extinguished, these people were driven to complete madness.
"Bastard!! I'll kill you!!!"
The Japanese youth shouted and charged at Chen Ye, completely failing to see the disdain in Chen Ye's eyes.
"Hmph!"
A cold snort was heard.
Tang Zichen attacked ferociously, her telekinesis erupting, directly flinging several people around her away.
If they had been together before, Tang Zichen would naturally not have been their match.
Now that only a few of them were left, they still wanted to kill Chen Ye in front of her?
After being flung away by Tang Zichen's telekinesis, the Japanese youth and the others, although not injured, had completely sealed their own doom.
Because the zombies had arrived.
Several small zombies swarmed them, their sharp claws digging deep into their shoulders before biting at their necks, sucking blood greedily.
Screams echoed incessantly.
Only the Japanese youth, with his strong will to survive, let out a defiant roar. In a final burst of strength before death, he actually used his katana to stab a zombie through its heart.
The attack on its heart caused the small zombie some pain, and it released the Japanese youth.
The Japanese youth rolled on the ground and returned to Chen Ye's feet.
Although he had temporarily escaped the small zombie, his neck artery had been bitten through, and he had been infected with corpse poison. There was no hope for him, and he didn't have much time left.
At this moment, Chen Ye could have easily killed this bastard with a single kick.
However, Chen Ye didn't do that.
It was better to let this guy die in agony!
And then turn into a small zombie to contribute some potential points to Chen Ye.
Looking at the miserable state of the Japanese youth.
Tang Zichen suddenly sighed!
Then, her gaze turned to Chen Ye.
"Chen Ye, I'm sorry. I don't want to die by the mouths of zombies. I'll go on ahead..."
After speaking, Tang Zichen activated her telekinesis, controlling a dart. It spun in the air, and once it had enough acceleration, she drove it into her own neck...
Truly worthy of her.
Even her suicide was so decisive!!
In the blink of an eye.
The dart arrived in front of Tang Zichen.
Tang Zichen had already closed her eyes...
A few seconds later.
Huh?
Why hasn't the dart pierced her neck yet?
Did it miss?
Impossible!
She had practiced for so long at school, and within a hundred meters, she was absolutely accurate.
Tang Zichen opened her eyes in confusion.
She discovered that the dart was less than 10 centimeters away from her neck.
The reason it hadn't pierced her neck was because a large hand had firmly grasped the dart...
"Class monitor, don't be so hasty to do something drastic! Didn't I tell you before? I have a secret weapon!"
Chen Ye said with a smile, "You rest well, it's my turn to go on!"
His smile.
Was full of confidence!!
