Chapter 24: Slaying the Special Zombie
"What do we have that's worth him risking his life to steal? Our food is almost gone, but we still have plenty of mineral water. If he wants water, we can just trade some for food," Lin Mancha said dismissively.
"You're so fucking naive! He can come and go as he pleases in the school, how could he possibly be short of food and water? The convenience store by the sports field is enough for him to last for a year or more!"
Zhuang Qiang said with a venomous tone, "He must be after the women here! His goal is definitely to take the women he's set his eyes on! Haven't you noticed? Everyone he's saved and brought to his fortress are women, not a single man!"
Once Zhuang Qiang said this, everyone grew wary, and the looks they gave Xiao Yi became increasingly complex.
"ROAR!!!" Just then, a furious roar echoed from the stairwell leading from the third-floor corridor to the rooftop.
The entire building seemed to tremble slightly.
It was the burly zombie!
The burly zombie was holding half a zombie corpse, its mouth seemingly still chewing something, with a large stream of foul blood flowing from its lips.
Compared to the last time they saw it, this burly zombie seemed to have grown even stronger!
Xiao Yi frowned slightly. He saw that this burly zombie was actually eating the corpse of another zombie!
"You don't need to guess his intentions anymore! He's dead for sure this time!"
Shen Jiabin said with glee, "That monster, even all of us together couldn't beat it. A level-10 cripple like him is definitely going to die!"
"Should we help him? Maybe he came to save us?" Lin Mancha turned her head, unable to bear watching the scene that was about to unfold.
She remembered the image of one of their companions being eaten by the burly zombie.
Her kindness made her unable to watch any further.
"Help him? Why should we help him? What does he have to do with us? Even if he really came to save us out of the kindness of his heart, he shouldn't have been so stupid as to provoke that monster himself. That's just asking for death! Besides, that monster is so powerful, even if a few of us went over, we'd be no match for it. We'd just be going to our deaths!" the boy who had always been against taking risks said fearfully.
"Xiao Dong is right. This guy is courting his own death. He deserves to die. Who told him to provoke that monster!" Gu Fanghua also said coldly.
Zhuang Qiang's words had struck a nerve with Gu Fanghua.
There were only three women here, and his girl, Tang Jingyan, was the most beautiful one.
He had every reason to worry that Xiao Yi's purpose was to steal his goddess!
He could not tolerate anything that threatened his goddess!
Right now, he couldn't wait for Xiao Yi to die sooner!
"Hey! Be careful! That monster is very powerful, you should run!" Tang Jingyan saw Xiao Yi slowly walking towards the burly zombie and finally couldn't resist calling out a warning.
Just as everyone was convinced that Xiao Yi was doomed, he raised his long-handled Mo Dao and charged towards the roaring burly zombie.
"Idiot! What a fucking moron!"
"An overestimating fool! Does he think he can kill that monster?"
"Seeking death! He's truly an idiot, he deserves to die!"
"How can he be so stupid? Does he have a death wish?"
Seeing Xiao Yi charge at the burly zombie, Shen Jiabin and the others couldn't help but curse.
However, in the next moment, their curses stopped abruptly!
The blade of the long-handled Mo Dao glinted with a cold light under the sun, a flash that vanished in an instant.
Immediately after, one of the burly zombie's arms fell heavily to the ground!
A large spray of foul blood gushed out, splattering the glass by the corridor with a dark purple mess.
In the very first clash, Xiao Yi had severed one of the burly zombie's arms!
Everyone on the rooftop, including Shen Jiabin, was completely stunned!
They never imagined that the burly zombie would be so fragile!
The burly zombie let out an angry howl, grabbed another zombie with its remaining arm, and ferociously pounced on Xiao Yi again.
The hearts of the people on the rooftop leaped, and they all unconsciously stood on their tiptoes, staring intently at the confrontation to come.
Xiao Yi's figure simply spun lightly, and the blade flashed again.
This time, what fell to the ground was the burly zombie's head.
Seeing Xiao Yi slay the burly zombie so effortlessly, the people on the rooftop were dumbfounded, completely frozen in place.
They couldn't figure out how a seemingly weak boy like Xiao Yi could have so easily slain the monstrous burly zombie!
Xiao Yi calmly walked to the burly zombie's corpse and stored it in his spatial bag.
This burly zombie was clearly much stronger than the one he had killed before, both in size and strength, far more formidable than the previous one.
Likewise, the attribute points and Doomsday Coins he would get from burying this corpse should also be more.
His main objective for this trip had been achieved. Satisfied, Xiao Yi put away the corpse, glanced up at Shen Jiabin and the others on the rooftop, then climbed back onto the sewer pipe. With a powerful leap, he landed on the balcony of the gymnasium.
