After listening to Tang Tian's words, the people who came out of the private room half-believed and half-doubted as they came to the window on the second floor and looked out at the campus.
When they saw the gruesome scene in the campus, every one of them turned pale and trembled. Especially the two girls who had been acting arrogantly just a moment ago, they were so frightened that they fell to the ground.
Clearly, they had never expected the entire campus to turn into this state.
Zombies were wandering everywhere. After so long, those who could survive had already found hiding places. Only a few people were still fleeing, but running out recklessly would eventually lead to being killed by the zombies.
Especially when they saw a student being surrounded and devoured alive by the zombies that caught up with him after he fell, they were so frightened that they vomited uncontrollably.
"Did you see that? It's like that outside. I couldn't imagine it at first either, but that's the reality," Tang Tian said as he came to these people.
Zhang Ling, a wealthy young master, had clearly never seen such a scene. No matter how composed he usually was, he was now frightened and asked anxiously, "Tang Tian, what are your plans next?"
"What can I do? We need to clean out the zombies in the canteen as soon as possible. At least there's food here, enough to last for a while. We also need to understand the situation outside. If the school is like this, it's impossible that the outside world doesn't know. The only explanation is that the outside world is also like this, or even more terrifying. Think about it, with eight million people in Tianshui City, if they all turned into these monsters, hehe..." Tang Tian didn't finish his sentence.
"I don't believe it, I don't believe it, how could it become like this?" At this moment, the arrogant girl stood up from the ground and immediately took out her phone to make a call.
Seeing her action, Tang Tian sneered, "It's useless. What did you do earlier? I've already tried, and the phone can't make calls now. The communication system might have been damaged."
Sure enough, after hearing Tang Tian's words, the others took out their phones to try to connect, but without exception, either they couldn't get through or there was no signal at all.
Getting this result, they all sat down in despair.
"What about the army? What about the police? They will definitely come to save us, yes, they will definitely come..." The arrogant girl still looked disbelieving.
Tang Tian simply didn't bother with such people.
"Where are you going?" Seeing Tang Tian turn around, the calm and composed school beauty Shen Yun asked subconsciously. Clearly, in this dangerous world, the mysterious and powerful Tang Tian had become their reliance for survival.
Without turning his head, Tang Tian said, "I'm going to check how many people are still alive on the second floor. Also, I need to thoroughly inspect whether there are any zombies hiding in the dark. Do you want to help?"
Hearing Tang Tian's words, they all instinctively took a step back, but then they all looked at each other and smiled awkwardly, though no one moved.
Tang Tian had clearly anticipated this result. Without even looking back, he went straight to the other private rooms. How could these young masters and misses put themselves in danger?
Tang Tian didn't have the idea of being a bodyguard for these people. This was about his own safety. Once these people realized the cruelty of this world, it would be too late to regret.
Tang Tian always remembered that these zombies could evolve. Once they started evolving, if these people missed the best time to upgrade, it would be difficult for them to become strong later.
Roar~~!
Just as Tang Tian opened the door of the first private room, a zombie rushed out, opening its bloody mouth and pouncing at Tang Tian. The few people watching from a distance, especially the girls, were so frightened that they screamed.
Tang Tian didn't panic. Ordinary zombies couldn't threaten him anymore. He quickly took a step back, raised the stick in his hand, and smashed it into the zombie's head.
Smash~~!
Without a doubt, with Tang Tian's current strength, one strike shattered the zombie's head like a rotten watermelon. A faint white light, almost invisible, emerged from the zombie's body and entered Tang Tian's body, increasing his experience by 1 point.
"Hmm? What's that?" Tang Tian's eyes were sharp, and he immediately saw a long, strip-like object fall from the zombie's body as it collapsed.
When he picked it up, Tang Tian found it was a knife in a sheath, about one meter long.
"Imperial Guard's Sword (imitation), a regular sword. Its sharpness is enough to easily cut through a monster's bones."
Looking at the sword in his hand, Tang Tian received a prompt in his mind. Tang Tian was very happy. At this stage, he needed a good weapon, and the beginner's wooden stick was no longer effective.
After pulling the sword out, Tang Tian saw that the blade was bright and straight, making it easy to slash. The blade was wider at the top and narrower at the bottom, with the handle being only three centimeters wide, but the tip was five centimeters wide.
Holding this sword, Tang Tian thought of a movie he had seen before, called "Imperial Guard." The style of this sword was almost identical to the one used by the Imperial Guards in the movie, which was exactly the type he liked.
With this imitation Imperial Guard's sword, the beginner's wooden stick could be discarded. After trying a few swings, perhaps because he had learned the basic sword technique, the sword felt very handy in his hands, and his strength increased even more.
However, the next part went quite smoothly. There were about twenty private rooms on the second floor. After searching all of them, including the first zombie, only three more zombies were found, which Tang Tian easily dealt with. Additionally, he searched the three kitchens, but they were only in a mess, and no zombies were found. Tang Tian guessed that they might have all run out at the beginning.
Moreover, all the people who were still alive on the second floor came out of their private rooms after Tang Tian finished searching. Including the initial six people, there were only sixteen people alive on the second floor, one of whom was a teacher.
While searching the kitchen, since no one dared to follow, Tang Tian quietly took some of the food, and no one noticed his small action.
This damned world, who knows when it will end. It's always good to have more things to help you survive.
When Tang Tian came out of the last kitchen with the imitation Imperial Guard's sword, he found that more than ten people had gathered in the canteen hall, and the middle-aged, bald, and pot-bellied teacher was speaking passionately.
Tang Tian recognized the teacher, a school leader. He probably knew what the teacher was thinking, so he simply sat to one side, took an apple from the kitchen, and listened to the teacher while eating.
