Becoming Stronger in the Last Days (4)
Hearing the voice, Shen Moyan paused.
He turned around and glanced at the man who fell to the ground in embarrassment, as if he was different from the teacher who had been brave enough to kill the enemy before. When Chen Dian thought his heart was softened and would stay, Shen Moyan turned and left without hesitation. It was as if the previous glance was just a conditioned reflex action when someone shouted.
His figure quickly disappeared at the end of the corridor. Chen Dian seemed to be exhausted in an instant. He fell on the cold ground alone, filled with repentance and fear. Only at this moment, when he was really facing the prospect of becoming a mindless monster like a zombie, did Chen Dian understand how cold-blooded and heartless he was when he insisted on taking Su Xiao away.
Chen Dian was like Shen Moyan half an hour ago. Unlike him, Shen Moyan did not try to retain anyone. At that time, Chen Dian thought it was a matter of course, even if they really stayed, the situation of being bitten by a zombie will not change in any way. Shen Moyan would eventually become a zombie, and then it would only delay the time of those who could have survived.
In that case, what was the point of him wanting to leave Shen Moyan behind at this moment?
It was true that many zombie movies and zombie novels will show people who have abilities after infection. Although Chen Dian was a teacher, he usually liked to watch these. But Shen Moyan could be lucky, what about him? Luck will not be rewarded to everyone.
He knew that begging him to stay would not reduce the speed of the virus infection, but when he really became alone, facing unexpected death alone, Chen Dian not only felt the fear, but also, at the same time, there was a loneliness that could not be ignored.
The thought that he would die here alone, become a zombie and wander in this teaching building unconsciously, perhaps one day he would be killed by someone he didn’t know, Chen Dian’s mentality was a little broken.
Even if someone could accompany him for a while before he died, it was good.
Chen Dian closed his eyes in pain, his consciousness became blurred and he developed a high fever.
He didn’t know how much time had passed, his body temperature had risen more and more, his whole body was hot, and his mind was in a mess. He didn’t know what he was thinking or not thinking during this time, even when in the empty corridor there was a sound of approaching footsteps, he didn’t notice.
When he realized that someone was approaching, he was picked up by someone by his waist.
Chen Dian tried to open his eyes, but he was so dizzy that he couldn’t really see. He could only see the person’s slightly cool expression and the corners of his lips that seemed to be easy to raise. With all the strength of his whole body, he barely grasped the man’s collar.
Shen Moyan noticed his movements, thinking that he was afraid of being infected and eventually becoming a zombie, so he calmly said, “Don’t be afraid, you will not die.”
Of course, Chen Dian would not die, even if he died, he would not die of infection.
But Shen Moyan did not expect that as soon as he said this, the man in his arms suddenly cried, and without warning, he buried his head on his shoulder and shed tears.
In the plot, Chen Dian was the first group of people to awaken the ability. If it hadn’t been for the system to remind him that his current plot direction had deviated, and Chen Dian’s life signs and even the will to survive had begun to decline rapidly, he would never take this trip.
The plot will be shifted for granted, because from the plot he received, Chen Dian and Su Xiao shouldn’t meet at school for the first time. Running away alone was not the same as bringing another person. Chen Dian delayed too much time, originally, he should have been able to escape this school smoothly, instead of being almost bitten off his neck by a zombie here.
Would he suffer a loss if Chen Dian was dead? He would. Chen Dian was one of the main characters. He had 1,000 points. According to Shen Moyan, Chen Dian should have been defeated by the virus, both physically and mentally, but the system did not give him any hints. That was to say, the system had its own set of judging standards, and he needed to meet the requirements by himself before the task was completed. Then, Chen Dian couldn’t die now, so Shen Moyan came back here after cleaning up most of the zombies.
When it didn´t involve his family members, Shen Moyan was indeed a relatively indifferent person. No matter how pitiful Chen Dian was crying on his shoulders, he was indifferent. If Chen Dian was not injured in his neck, Shen Moyan would have used a more simple and rude way to carry him.
He hugged him into the elevator, and freed a hand to press down the first floor.
Shen Moyan took a while to clean up the zombies on the first floor. Thanks to the scattered zombies on the road, he was able to wield the sword a lot more proficiently. The long black iron sword formed with the ability was better than the sharpness of other ordinary swords, it also speeded up his cleaning speed.
If it weren’t for the fear that Chen Dian would die on his way to clean up the zombies, Shen Moyan would probably take the time to pick up each zombie’s energy crystal, and now he could only collect it later.
The infirmary was on the first floor. There were no living zombies in the surrounding area. Even if there were, there were only one or two scattered, which could not cause any substantial harm to the current Shen Moyan.
He put Chen Dian on the bed in the infirmary and gave him the most basic disinfection and bandaging. Chen Dian had already cried and passed out, and he still had a high fever, but this was only after being infected and evolving into an ability user. It was just a necessary process, and when Chen Dian wakes up, he would be a true ability user.
Shen Moyan sorted out the useful resources in the infirmary, and brought some in his bag. The original owner had slight myopia, but after his body mutated into what it was now, his vision had returned to normal, maybe it was even better than ordinary people. Shen Moyan put the unnecessary glasses on the cabinet in the infirmary, put on the backpack he picked up in other classrooms, and locked the door as he left the infirmary.
After confirming that Chen Dian would not die at present, he threw him in the infirmary without any psychological burden. Of course, he went to recover the zombie crystal that he had harvested on the road before leaving. He did not plan to spend time anymore. He went upstairs for a run, so he only collected the crystals from the zombies on the first floor. Roughly speaking, there were about thirty or forty crystals of uniform shape but different colors.
He left ten, and the rest was absorbed by his right hand. The black iron long sword was remelted into pitch black molten iron by him, covering his entire right arm. The black iron was controlled by the power so the bottom was soft as if some kind of leather. He was wearing the black hooded sweater of the original owner. From the clothes, it seemed that he was wearing a pair of black leather gloves, completely covering the zombification on his arm.
There were a lot of unmanned vehicles parked on the streets outside the school, as well as the wreckage left by the collisions. Shen Moyan couldn´t drive. It was better to say that the empire’s vehicles were too far apart from this world. If it weren´t for the plot, he wouldn´t even know that this thing was called a car.
The library of the system had the setting of the whole different world, and naturally there should be a way to use transportation, but he wasn’t in a hurry to go to a specific place. Before leaving this area, he had to change his clothes.
The days in prison were the most depressing moments of Shen Moyan. It was suppressed to the point that even if he killed someone for the first time, he did not feel any sense of guilt. Only when he dealt with the zombies at school, the emotions that had been suppressed for too long were vented out, so that although he was wearing black clothes at this time, his whole body was full of blood that could not be concealed, and he did not like the smell of blood, so he went into the mall closest to the school and changed to a black shirt.
Then he smashed the window of a car and opened the door while checking the introduction of the ‘Hyundai’ vehicle in the system library.
There were three ways for him to get points. Kill zombies, get the faith value, and defeat the main character. It was not clear what kind of concept the faith value was, but the other two were very obvious. Killing zombies didn’t need to say much, but to defeat the main character…
The main character system has clearly pointed out that it was related to Su Xiao. In short, it is Su Xiao and his suitors. These suitors are all powerful abilities, so the meaning of defeat was also very obvious.
Combining Chen Dian’s situation, then this optional task should be to defeat the main characters when they were in good condition. The only thing that makes Shen Moyan unclear is what the system means by “There is no limit to optional task means”
After thinking for a while, Shen Moyan also had a direction. He was going to go west. The west was the area with the worst zombie outbreak. Also because of the sudden zombie outbreak, people in the west were the more difficult to evacuate, unable to escape and did not want to escape. Those who were just waiting to die set up a survivor base there.
Of course, this base didn’t last long in the plot, and it was completely swallowed by zombies in less than a month.
There were two reasons for Shen Moyan to go there. The first was that there was a base there, and there were enough zombies outside the base. The first advanced zombie came from there, and the second was that the strongest person in the plot, also one of Su Xiao´s suitor, the strongest thunder ability was there.
It took him a while to figure out the starting conditions of the ‘Hyundai’ car. When everyone was fleeing east, he stepped on the accelerator and drove to the west without hesitation.
Chen Dian, who was left alone in the infirmary on the first floor of the teaching building, opened his eyes in a daze. The first thing he saw was the white ceiling.
He didn’t die?
Chen Dian sluggishly touched the injured neck, but found that it had already been carefully bandaged, and when his fingers touched the bandage, he seemed to remember what happened before, and he suddenly entered the university teacher raised his hand to cover his hot face.
It was he who saved him and said “Don’t be afraid” to him when he was about to collapse. Even if it sounded like a kid’s word, it really calmed his chaotic mood at the time and drove away his anxiety.
But what about him?
Chen Dian was taken aback when thinking of this, suddenly turned over and sat up, and opened the curtain surrounding the hospital bed as if he had just reacted.
The infirmary was empty.
