Chapter 21: The Situation Outside

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

You Cheng quickly understood what Tang Susu was doing. A trace of embarrassment flashed across his impatient and handsome face, and he was stunned.

When did this woman become so greedy?

She wouldn’t even let the valuables on the zombies go!

“Susu, come back. A huge wave of zombies is coming.” Tang Mingqi urged.

Tang Susu couldn’t help but look at the bank across the street with regret. She quickly walked past You Cheng without even stopping for a moment, as if he was just air.

That speed was so fast that You Cheng didn’t expect it. Could it be that her weak and sickly physique from just walking two steps was an act?

He knew it!

You Cheng hurriedly followed.

With a bang, the giant iron door closed, and more than 20 zombies pounced at him!

Greenish-gray arms reached in through the crack of the door, baring their fangs and brandishing their claws as much as they could, like fierce ghosts from hell demanding lives. They squirmed densely, and the scene was terrifying.

Tang Mingzhou raised his crossbow and was about to shoot them to death, but Tang Susu quickly stopped him. “Don’t worry. There’s an iron gate between us. Don’t waste your arrows.”

She gave him a look, and Tang Mingzhou immediately understood her use. Without another word, he put away his crossbow.

You Cheng unconsciously frowned.

Although his good friend was usually tolerant of this delicate girl, he had a bottom line. The commotion caused by so many zombies might attract more zombies. If he did not get rid of them, it would definitely be a hidden danger!

Thinking of this, he said, “Some zombies have a certain level of intelligence. They might be able to break in.”

“It’s fine. We can practice.” Tang Mingchu’s phoenix-like eyes gleamed with a cold light, filled with confidence.

“Yes, but Ah Cheng, why did you come so late? How are things outside?” Mr. Tang asked worriedly.

On the way back, You Cheng told them what he knew.

“It suddenly broke out in the middle of the night last night, and many people were bitten in their sleep. According to our observation, this virus spreads very quickly and can turn a person into a zombie in three minutes. So, even though the relevant departments made preparations, they were still caught off guard.”

Tang Susu’s eyebrows twitched when she heard the word “related department.” She wasn’t surprised that You Cheng knew about this. As one of the harems of the female lead, his background was naturally extraordinary.

His late father was a famous entrepreneur with wealth comparable to a country’s. Although he did not inherit the family business, he had received a lot of property.

Most importantly, he had an uncle who was a military officer in the North China Military Region. He thought highly of him, and he would be a great help to Ying Chengya in the future.

You Cheng explained the characteristics of the zombies. Although the Tang family knew better than him, they were all good actors. They didn’t show any strange expressions, but nodded with serious expressions and asked questions from time to time… Mr. Tang, for instance.

“You’re saying that this virus is similar to the rabies virus and will be infected if bitten by the host, but not necessarily if touched?”

“That’s the case for now. Maybe the virus in the zombie’s nails isn’t much, but it may evolve further. We don’t know what will happen after that.”

The subsequent infection speed would slow down, but by then, the number of zombies would be so high that it would make scalps numb.

What was even more terrifying was that even animals and plants would mutate!

The members of the Tang family thought to themselves.

You Cheng glanced at her and saw a bright smile in Tang Susu’s clear eyes. He was stunned for a moment and immediately looked away.

“No one can escape the apocalypse. Everyone must have the ability to protect themselves, or they will die!” He said directly.

Tang Susu nodded in agreement.

Thus, she had to complete the mission as soon as possible. Leveling up was one thing, but she also had to master a set of powerful martial arts skills. She had learned mixed martial arts for self-defense before, so she had no problem dealing with ordinary zombies for the time being, but it might not be the same in the future.
