After Wu Bin climbed in, he carefully opened the window. The window wasn't locked from the inside, as it was left open for ventilation. Zhao Tianlei only heard a plop, the distinct sound of Wu Bin landing after jumping through the window. After waiting for about ten seconds.

"Ugh..." Suddenly, a terrifying sound came. It was likely a nearby zombie that had caught their scent. Soon, two zombies, one male and one female, appeared before Zhao Tianlei.

Even though there were two zombies, they didn't pose a significant threat to Zhao Tianlei. Zhao Tianlei took a step forward and kicked the male zombie closest to him to the ground. Then, he swung the fire axe in his hand and cleaved the female zombie's head. The female zombie didn't even groan before Zhao Tianlei decapitated her, and she fell to the ground.

Without waiting for the downed male zombie to get up, Zhao Tianlei immediately moved forward and, without hesitation, swung his axe down at the male zombie's head, decapitating it once more.

"Creak."

After Zhao Tianlei dealt with the two zombies, he heard the door behind him open. Wu Bin poked his head out and beckoned to Zhao Tianlei, "Tianlei, hurry and come in."

The moment Wu Bin opened the door, a pungent smell of blood wafted out. Wu Bin's eyes immediately fell on the two zombies lying at Zhao Tianlei's feet. Wu Bin was astonished that in the few dozen seconds it took him to open the door, Zhao Tianlei had already killed two zombies. He couldn't help but be greatly surprised by Zhao Tianlei's power.

"Tianlei, how are you? Are you okay?"

"I'm fine, let's go in quickly." Zhao Tianlei didn't answer, but instead, he grabbed Wu Bin and walked inside, locking the door behind them.

After entering the library through the back door, the two found themselves on the first floor. Zhao Tianlei held his axe in one hand, while Wu Bin held two chair legs in both hands. They walked in, one after the other. Inside, students were whispering incessantly, and some were crying, clearly terrified by the events.

Their bold appearance immediately drew the attention of the students inside. Especially when they saw Zhao Tianlei holding a blood-stained fire axe with a furious expression, they were all startled. Some of the more timid students quickly moved aside, afraid of being injured by Zhao Tianlei's axe.

"Qian Hao, you bastard, why didn't you open the door for us just now? You wanted to leave us outside to feed the zombies. You're going to die!"

The two walked straight to the main entrance of the library's first floor. Zhao Tianlei rushed directly to Qian Hao, who had almost gotten them killed. He raised his foot and kicked Qian Hao in the abdomen, sending him sprawling to the ground. Seeing Zhao Tianlei's fierce expression, the surrounding students quickly scattered.

After being kicked to the ground, Qian Hao didn't seem scared. He got up and glared at Zhao Tianlei, shouting, "Hmph, for the sake of the students in the library, I had an obligation not to open the door for you. If you two had led the zombies in, everyone inside would have died. I had to do this to save everyone."

Qian Hao was a slippery character. What he hadn't expected this time was that Zhao Tianlei, who was usually bullied, could actually break in alive. Especially looking at the blood-dripping fire axe in his hand, Qian Hao felt a twinge of fear. He immediately concocted a lie, claiming he did it for everyone's sake. Regardless, Qian Hao's words sounded somewhat irrefutable, and some students who didn't know the truth were immediately fooled by his lie.

Seeing that Zhao Tianlei was about to attack, a few braver students couldn't help but step in to mediate, "Alright, what time is it? Instead of figuring things out, you're arguing here. If you attract more zombies, this door won't hold.

"Exactly. You two are fine, and you're already inside. What's the point of arguing or fighting anymore? Besides, with so many people watching, you can't possibly kill him, right?"

Zhao Tianlei had the upper hand, but he didn't expect Qian Hao to use everyone trapped in the library as an excuse. Suddenly, everyone turned their attention to Zhao Tianlei, who gritted his teeth in anger. Of course, Zhao Tianlei knew that no matter how much he hated this guy, he couldn't chop him to death in front of so many people. After all, Qian Hao was a person, not one of those zombies outside, and Zhao Tianlei couldn't bring himself to do it.

"Tianlei, Wu Bin, it's good that you're alright. Thank you for risking your lives to rescue your classmates just now."

Just as Zhao Tianlei was filled with rage, a familiar voice suddenly rang out. Zhao Tianlei turned his head and saw it was his class monitor, Ye Sitong. However, Ye Sitong's clothes were now dirty and disheveled after her near-death escape, a far cry from her usual spirited appearance. Especially the swelling and redness on the left side of her face made her look particularly disheveled.

Seeing this, Zhao Tianlei's anger reignited. He walked forward with his axe. To Qian Hao's horror, Zhao Tianlei raised his hand and slapped Qian Hao across the face twice. Zhao Tianlei had put all his strength into those two slaps, his own hand aching from the impact, let alone Qian Hao's face. He immediately spat out a mouthful of blood.

"Qian Hao, listen to me clearly. These two slaps are for our class monitor. If you dare bully our class's students again, I'll chop you with my axe and throw you out to feed the zombies. I, Zhao Tianlei, mean what I say."

With that, Zhao Tianlei walked up to Ye Sitong, grabbed her hand, and went with Wu Bin to a less crowded corner. The students hiding in the corner scattered as soon as they saw Zhao Tianlei approaching with his axe, clearly treating him like a plague.

Ye Sitong never expected that Zhao Tianlei, who was usually bullied and never dared to fight back, would slap Qian Hao from the neighboring class twice in front of so many people today. It's worth noting that Qian Hao was the sports committee member of the neighboring class. He usually played basketball and was half a head taller than Zhao Tianlei, with a strong build. Facing Zhao Tianlei's fury, Qian Hao didn't dare to retaliate after receiving those two slaps.

Another thing that surprised Ye Sitong was that after beating Qian Hao, Zhao Tianlei had taken her hand in front of everyone and walked through the crowd. Although Ye Sitong had been in university for a while, she had never been in a relationship. It wasn't that she didn't want to, but she had focused all her energy on her studies to achieve excellent grades and find a good job after graduation. Being held by Zhao Tianlei, Ye Sitong's face immediately turned red, and she didn't struggle, allowing him to lead her.

"Class monitor, is your face okay?"

In response to Zhao Tianlei's concern, Ye Sitong nodded and said, "Thank you, Tianlei. I'm okay, it doesn't hurt anymore. I'm truly sorry just now. When you two came to the door, I couldn't convince them to open it, which forced you to take risks outside."
