Without the slightest hesitation, Ye Yunchuan immediately chose to end the agony.
Bang~
Ye Yunchuan then fell into a brief darkness, and by the time he woke up, his body had already been reconstructed.
Xiao Hei stood guard by his side like a loyal servant.
Is this what death feels like? If it weren't to adapt in advance, I really wouldn't want to experience this feeling.
Ye Yunchuan sighed.
This test had taught him a lesson.
Even though he possessed an immortal body, he still could not afford to be careless.
After all, the pain of death was not something just anyone could endure.
Unless absolutely necessary, he would never use this trump card.
"The Demi-Human bloodline test is complete, so now it's time to see the grand prize!"
[Do you wish to perform an S-rank draw?]
"Yes!"
[Ding~ Congratulations to the host for obtaining the S-rank talent: Slaughter Plunder.]
[Slaughter Plunder: After killing a target, you can plunder a certain amount of random attribute points from them. The specific amount obtained depends on the strength of the target.]
"Good stuff!"
Ye Yunchuan's eyes lit up.
Compared to the Demi-Human bloodline, whose abilities were already fixed, the S-rank talent Slaughter Plunder undoubtedly had more potential.
However, this talent did not seem very useful in this world.
After all, this was a society governed by law.
Where would he find so many enemies to kill?
"But the system didn't specify what the target has to be. I wonder if killing ants or mosquitoes can make me stronger."
The clever Ye Yunchuan wanted to exploit a bug, so he casually swatted a mosquito to death.
[Ding~ Killed a mosquito, gained 0.0000001 Strength attribute.]
Ye Yunchuan had originally thought he was being quite cunning, but after seeing all those zeros, he couldn't help but sigh at his own mortal wisdom.
Wanting to get stronger by killing bugs?
He might as well just go to sleep!
However, Ye Yunchuan did not expect that he would soon have the opportunity to kill a person.
"Ah~ Help!"
Walking on the way back, Ye Yunchuan suddenly heard a girl's cry for help.
Under normal circumstances, Ye Yunchuan certainly wouldn't go looking for trouble.
But now...
Of course, it was time to say, "Let that girl go and let me handle it!"
"Help, someone save me!"
At this moment, a white-haired girl was running for her life.
Behind her, a boy wearing a school uniform and covered in blood was chasing her without a moment's pause.
"Roar~" The man's eyes were bloodshot, his gait was extremely bizarre, and even more terrifyingly, he was letting out beast-like roars.
Why does this scene look so familiar? Could it be a zombie?!
Ye Yunchuan was stunned for a moment.
One second he was prepared to play a school-based battle of wits, and the next second it turned into a zombie apocalypse.
The transition was so fast that he was caught completely off guard.
"Wait, the person being chased seems to be Shiina Hiyori from Class C."
Ye Yunchuan narrowed his eyes.
If it were just an ordinary girl, Ye Yunchuan might have hesitated.
But Shiina Hiyori, how should he put it.
She was one of the few beauties in Class C, a high-quality literary girl who loved to read; he had to save her no matter what.
"Ah~"
Shiina Hiyori was a girl after all, and having been chased for so long, she clearly had no strength left.
Before long, she tripped and fell to the ground.
"It's over, am I going to die here?"
Watching the zombie behind her pounce, nothing but helpless despair remained in Shiina Hiyori's eyes.
"Bang~!"
Just as Shiina Hiyori prepared to accept her fate.
The zombie's head was suddenly blown away by a massive force, and by the time Shiina Hiyori reacted, the zombie had already collapsed straight to the ground.
"Am I saved?"
Shiina Hiyori couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief.
"Yeah, you're definitely saved. I'm the one who saved you!"
Ye Yunchuan walked out with his hands in his pockets, looking down at Shiina Hiyori from above.
"Did you do that? Thank you, classmate. My name is Shiina Hiyori, may I ask your name?"
Shiina Hiyori couldn't help but size Ye Yunchuan up.
After all, she had seen the scene just now; the zombie's head had exploded for no apparent reason.
She was also very curious about how exactly Ye Yunchuan had managed to do that.
[Ding~ Killed zombie *1, obtained Strength *1.]
As the notification sound faded, Ye Yunchuan could clearly feel his strength increase slightly.
"So it really is a zombie!"
What he cared about more than the increase in strength was clearly the name of the target he had killed.
What this meant was self-evident.
But he soon revealed a strange smile.
If it were anyone else, the arrival of the apocalypse would undoubtedly be a nightmare.
But for him, possessing a system, it was absolutely a good thing.
If it were before, constrained by laws and morality.
At most, he could only get one girl to bear his children.
But now... hehe...
"My name is Ye Yunchuan. By the way, I saved your life, how do you plan to thank me?"
Thinking of this, Ye Yunchuan's behavior and demeanor became increasingly frivolous.
He immediately lifted Shiina Hiyori's chin.
As expected of the class beauty of Class C, Shiina Hiyori's looks and temperament were top-notch; calling her a peerless beauty would not be an exaggeration.
"Eh?!" Shiina Hiyori was stunned for a moment.
According to the usual tropes, wasn't a hero saving a damsel in distress supposed to be free of charge?
Although she wasn't the type of person to not repay a kindness.
She never imagined in her wildest dreams that Ye Yunchuan would so bluntly demand a reward from her.
"This... I haven't thought about it yet."
Shiina Hiyori blushed and looked away.
"Then how about you have a child for me? As long as you have a child for me, we'll be even!"
"Ah... this..."
Shiina Hiyori's face turned beet red; she hadn't expected Ye Yunchuan to make such an absurd request.
As for whether Ye Yunchuan was being despicable for making such a demand.
In her view, there was nothing despicable about it.
She truly owed him her life, and life was greater than everything; no matter what reward the other party asked for, she didn't think it was excessive.
It was just that she was still young and didn't have the mental preparation to become a mother so soon.
"Um, let's talk about the reward later. I have something very important to tell you."
"Yunchuan-kun, you saw what that person looked like just now, right? The Resident Evil has become reality, and I'm afraid our school is going to fall!"
Chapter 9: Shiina's Curiosity
"So you're saying you stayed in the library until midnight, and then the classmates you were reading with suddenly turned into zombies? And then there were screams everywhere?"
Because she often read books, she would occasionally come into contact with works related to the apocalypse.
Shiina Hiyori wasn't finding the current situation that hard to accept.
"Yes, that's exactly right."
"It seems this school really is about to fall!"
Ye Yunchuan frowned.
Right now, screams could be heard from within the school from time to time.
It was not much different from having already fallen.
What worried him more was that the virus was actually transmitted through the air.
He didn't know if his Demi-Human constitution could withstand it.
However, since Shiina Hiyori was perfectly fine, he figured he shouldn't be that fragile.
It was just that he didn't know...
I wonder how Karuizawa Kei is doing. That girl sleeps so soundly, she shouldn't be running around randomly! What's more worrying than that is whether she can withstand the first wave of the virus.
After much consideration, Ye Yunchuan finally decided to return to the dormitory to take a look.
"Eh? Wait for me, Yunchuan-kun!"
Seeing that Ye Yunchuan was about to leave, Shiina Hiyori immediately followed him.
The apocalypse had already arrived.
Having read many works, Shiina Hiyori naturally understood what was most important in an environment like this.
If it were before, she probably would have gone to seek refuge with Ryuen.
After all, the combat strength of the group in her Class C was not low.
But the scene that just unfolded made her change her mind.
Compared to the brute force of mortals, the mysterious power Ye Yunchuan possessed clearly made her more curious.
Furthermore, compared to someone as overbearing as Ryuen, Ye Yunchuan undoubtedly made her feel much more at ease.
