LET’S SUR/VI/VE: 008
”You seem to know a lot about zombies.” Lu Huixue walked up the stairs behind Xu Yang, a bag on her back. She looked at Xu Yang’s thin arms and legs, she couldn’t help but sigh emotionally.
Xu Yang’s mumbled: “Hmm”, which was considered a response by Lu Huixue. After all, Xu Yang had been a 1★ zombie for so long, of course she knew about the zombies well. Low-★ zombies like Xu Yang who had their consciousness back then was forced to be submissive. The higher the zombie’s ★, the smarter and more vindictive it would be. If someone managed to hurt it, they wouldn’t recognize the zombie in two or three years, but the zombie would surely come after them for revenge if it senses their breath.
…Of course. She heard strong Abilities referred this as “To walk a thousand li and present a crystal nucleus as a gift”. [1]
Unexpectedly, this supermarket was well stocked. Although there was a lot of dried blood on the floor, many shelves were overturned, so this scene was very messy. But on this supermaket, there were plenty of leftover supplies.
Xu Yang casually took a canned Coke from the small freezer next to the cash register and drank two sips, the carbon dioxide twirled inside her stomach and she burped. Ah, if only she had a spatial ability or a spatial bag from the system mall… What a shame!
They grabbed some cookies and canned goods at the supermarket to stuff their backpacks to the brim. Xu Yang hesitated for a moment, before taking three or four bottles of beef soy sauce and rice sauce. The backpack was bulging and Xu Yang could hear the crashing sound from the inside whenever she walked.
”Is it heavy?”
”I’m an Abilities.” Lu Hui Xue arched an eyebrow, “I’ll have no problem carrying ten more.”
Xu Yang immediately shut her mouth, she had judged her by her appearance again. She almost forgot about this gal’s feat of swinging an eight-foot tall man with one hand.
”You put these away and follow me to the roof.” Since Lu Huixue was an Abilites, so Xu Yang wasn’t going to accompany her to put the bags away. There were four floors of this supermarket, and there must be a way to get up to the rooftop… even if they had to use brute force.
Lu Huixue responded, carrying her bag and disappearing in a flash.
The rooftop on a summer night is a bit warm. Xu Yang narrowed her eyes as she felt a soft breeze blew past her. She looked around around, Xu city at night was shrouded in a dark thick fog, she couldn’t see things clearly… except for the sea of fire she’d put up.
Xu Yang squinted, she wondered if it was because of the chosen 【basic proficiency enhancement】 passive skill, she could see that a car was marching towards the sea of fire, and behind it was a dense zombie tide. Xu Yang sat down and watched the car as if she found it amusing, since the car would always be surrounded by zombies and wouldn’t be able to break through cleanly.
”Do you want to save them?” Xu Yang didn’t notice when Lu Huixue had come up, and Lu Huixue looked at the direction of Xu Yang’s gaze. The vision of a 1☆ Abilities was even sharper than an Ordinaries, and Lu Huixue could see everything in the distance very clearly. Of course, she also saw that behind the hunted car, there was a different looking zombie that followed them, jumping around from roof to roof.
This zombie was a bit bigger than a regular zombie, which, of course, wasn’t special. Lu Huixue noticed there was a faint green neon light on the zombie’s eyes, and when it moved, its body also emitted a faint green neon light. A green neon light was seen following the car at night.
”Why should I?” Xu Yang snorted, “Aren’t they dragging those zombies towards my fire, to push their problems to me and share their pain?”
”Isn’t it natural…?”
”What if we aren’t strong enough? What if you can’t win against 2★ zombies?” Xu Yang looked at Lu Huixue in disdain, “You will die.”
Lu Huixue stopped talking. After a while, she tried to explain, “I didn’t mean it like that….”
Lu Huixue had just casually asked a question, not wanting to die for them at all. But why did Xu Yang’s emotions felt wrong after she had said that it’s all human’s nature? Being selfish to survive, wasn’t this all human’s nature? Lu Huixue didn’t know when she had angered Xu Yang to make this little girl choose to ignore her. [2]
”Don’t you think the 2★ zombie is badly hurt?” Xu Yang watched as the zombie tide approached the car closer, and she estimated those people wouldn’t be able to escape. Weirdly, the 2★ zombie hasn’t taken care of them by itself yet… or maybe those people were really good at fighting?
”All of those people should be Abilities. I saw flashes of thunder and the sounds of gunfire.” Lu Huixue continued, “Maybe that 2★zombie has taken a loss at Xu city, so it was on guard against them.”
”Let’s hunt the 2★ zombie.” Xu Yang said, shocking Lu Huixue.
”What?”
”Don’t you need the 2✦ crystal core? That would help you a lot. I don’t need the crystal core, so let’s kill the 2★ zombie.” Xu Yang had a hunch that by killing a 2★ zombie, she would leveled up to level 5.
”Are you crazy? So many zombies…..”
”Aren’t they holding it together?” Xu Yang laughed, revealing a sharp little tiger tooth[3], what she wanted to kill was the 2★ zombie, she wouldn’t care for the others. “Our wealth is at stake, you know?”
Lu Huixue became speechless.
……..
Lu Hui Xue felt that she must have gone mad.
She remembered she had resigned herself that she would fill their car with fuel to chase them, but suddenly she found herself staring at the hunted car on the road, from the same rooftop with Xu Yang, feeling shocked.[4]
‘Huh?’
She actually agreed to follow Xu Yang’s idea to ‘play’….
Footnote:
[1] To walk a thousand li and present a crystal nucleus as a gift – originally derived from: To walk a thousand li and present a swan feather as a gift – Lit means It’s the thought that matters – well in this case, the zombies literally hunted them and walked a thousands li, and they brought them a crystal core gift, which is on their head- if they could be killed.
[2] Hahahah Lu Huixue triggered a hidden mine, she didn’t knew Xu Yang thinks of her as Holy Mother, so of course she dislike it when she put it this way. Xu Yang might be cruel and ruthless, but she couldn’t see Lu Huixue to be cruel, she saw her as a holy person- so she might subsconsciously didn’t want Lu Huixue to divert from what she imagined her as.
[3] You know, in anime/manga, when a certain character laugh, smile, or talk they showed their sharp little fangs? This. I forgot what it called.
[4] FL thinks Xu Yang’s idea is to gave it a chase, but actually Xu Yang only wanted the 2★ zombie (which stayed on the roof) to chase them, not caring for the other zombies!
