White light flashed and disappeared again. What Lin Li saw before him was a familiar scene, the ruins and rubble, only it appeared darker due to wearing a helt.
But overall, the sky was much like last ti.
The location where I appeared should be the sa spot where I returned last ti.
Lin Li quickly turned around, but good news, Beauty, who had been chasing , was nowhere to be seen.
Ti in this world flows normally.
The ti point of my return is inconsistent with the last ti point.
Oh no, have I co back after a whole week and Beauty might have already gone far away?
Might she have already turned into soone else?
Lin Li scratched his green-haired head; even if Beauty had t with misfortune, I hope the culprit spared a thought.
But before searching for Beauty, Lin Li began to check his own condition.
The steel bar at his waist, the fruit knife in the tactical backpack, the dagger on the thigh, all these were there.
Lin Li loosened his grip, and the small plastic box was there too, but the ants inside were gone.
They weren’t dead, but missing.
Were they left in the modern world? Or did they get ’disintegrated’ during the crossing?
If left in the modern world, does it an only one living being can be carried across the two worlds by the system? Perhaps the virus in this world won’t use as a dium to spread?
All these are rely speculations that need more evidence and experints for verification.
Taking out his phone from his pocket, it’s functional.
Mobile service is crap, can’t even cover signals in another world, what kind of carrier is it then.
Lin Li opened the wireless network, none were available, a complete blank.
What do people in this world do without internet, do they not swipe TikTok?
Compass function seems normal too? It can stably point in one direction; does this world have a similar magnetic field?
Lin Li opened the cara, started recording, then placed the phone in the pocket on his chest.
Recording is necessary, but next ti it’s better to buy a portable cara.
This ti, I didn’t buy one because I’m broke.
"Hoo—"
Ti to find Beauty.
But can’t act rashly. Don’t want to end up finding so hooligans instead of Beauty, ending up with a failed date and getting beaten.
As for how to search, sounds could lure nearby zombies out.
Lin Li’s idea was to first get onto one of the relatively ’tall’ buildings within the ruins, then throw things down to create noise, to see if it can attract nearby ’creatures’.
Then search for Beauty’s figure among the ’crowd’.
After all, even with preparation, Lin Li doesn’t think he can battle zombies for long without having actually chopped anyone before.
Need to take them down one by one.
"That building looks tall enough."
Having chosen a target, Lin Li took out the flashlight but didn’t turn it on, holding it cautiously as he started moving towards the building, while activating [Divine Power of Hearing].
The helt was quite inconvenient at this ti, limiting vision; better replace or modify it next ti.
Before walking a few steps, Lin Li suddenly paused and squinted his eyes.
Sounds were coming from behind a fragnted stone wall.
So soft, so heavy, surely footsteps.
After confirming this, Lin Li imdiately ran to the nearest pile of debris, first listened and confird there were no other fellows hiding within it, then squatted down.
The lone footsteps approach, erging.
Dirty hair, a hole in the head, half the cheek shaved off...
It’s Beauty!
She didn’t leave! Her heart has !
Originally thought hunting for Beauty would take long and be dangerous, yet she now actively appeared before , Lin Li’s excitent at the mont was palpable.
If Beauty regained her beautiful look before infection and let Lin Li hug and kiss her, Lin Li would be willing!
She seed to be searching for sothing too, swaying her head and ’looking’ around with each step.
Perhaps...
Are she and I pursuing each other?
This unbelievable thought surfaced in Lin Li’s mind.
Could it be during this week, she’s been looking for in this area all along? Otherwise, why hasn’t she left this area for so long.
Lin Li couldn’t help but tear up a bit.
What sincerity of love is this, the system didn’t lie after all, indeed it was love at first sight.
"Perhaps... she’s more worth cherishing than Xiaojing." Like Spiderman or Deadpool, the more tense or dangerous the situation, the more Lin Li said nonsense to keep calm.
Also known as Self-Imposed Calmness.
Forbid the entertainnt of suffering, unless the suffering is one’s own.
Then, Lin Li gripped the steel bar tightly, licked the corner of his mouth under the helt.
Besides fear of the unknown and combat, there’s a peculiar excitent.
People are always chasing a thrill.
Lin Li didn’t rush out to et Beauty but continued to keep [Divine Power of Hearing] activated to listen for a while longer.
A minute passed, and Lin Li should be certain that within the range he could hear, the only sound ca from the Beauty lady.
That’s good news.
It won’t be too easy to lure out other zombies later.
But Lin Li still didn’t go out.
Lin Li is not a straight man; he knows very well that no matter how old a woman is, she prefers surprises over routine. If he just walked out like that, how could he justify her week of waiting?
Wait a bit longer.
When she walks a few more ters forward, he can suddenly appear behind her and present the steel rod in his hand as her gift.
At that mont, the Beauty lady would surely be very happy, maybe even so surprised she’d faint.
"Clatter... clatter..."
For a mont, the only sounds in the space were the Beauty lady’s twisted legs and the friction of gravel on the ground.
She walked past.
Lin Li grinned maliciously and prepared to approach.
She turned her head.
Three eyes t — the Beauty lady was missing an eyeball.
Lin Li: "?"
Not a sister?
Did you activate Conqueror’s Haki?
He hadn’t even made a sound, so why did she turn her head? Can zombies in this world sll scents?
If so, she should have noticed him when she walked past earlier?
As Lin Li’s brain was thinking, it seed the Beauty lady’s brain was also thinking.
Perhaps love transcends all, the Beauty lady recognized the person under the helt as her drool-worthy Lin Li, and in the next second, let out a low growl and lunged at him.
Lin Li pulled out the steel rod and stuck it in his ear: "According to universal law, no one is allowed to attack soone who’s cleaning their ear!"
The Beauty lady was quite unethical, completely ignoring him, only wanting to hug Lin Li.
There was no other way, he could only give her the gift early. [Close Combat Spirit], designating weapon, steel rod, start!
No need to hesitate, even a lion uses its full strength to catch a rabbit. If worst cos to worst, he could retreat and wait for cooldown, so Lin Li straightforwardly used this ability.
Two hours, that’s enough.
As for the designated weapon, although there were more powerful daggers and fruit knives nearby, their attack range was too short. Lin Li preferred sothing long and thick.
As soon as he activated it, Lin Li felt like the steel rod in his hand was a part of his body, and a flood of information a thousand tis richer than usual poured into his mind about how to wield the rod in ways that would incapacitate or even kill the opponent.
And a sense of confidence that as long as he thought about it, he could achieve it!
Is this the difference expertise makes?
The Beauty lady charging at him was now all vulnerabilities in Lin Li’s mind.
So Lin Li stayed in place, activated [Power Accumulation], and as the distance between them closed, when his mind signaled "it’s now," his body moved, and the steel rod swung in a big arc, slicing through the air with a roar.
"Madam, eat Lao Lin’s stick!" Lin Li suppressed his voice in a low growl.
"Crash!"
Lin Li didn’t aim for the arm; he went straight for the fatal neck. The steel rod easily pierced the surface rotting flesh and struck the cervical bone.
The powerful gift sent the Beauty lady flying into a wall, then falling unconscious to the floor.
He actually took her out in one strike.
But honestly, the Beauty lady was a bit off-putting.
Her head was now between Lin Li’s legs, sneaking a peek between Lin Li’s thighs.
Like she was in heat, it was really, really off-putting.
"Beauty lady, off you go!" Lin Li smiled slightly.
"Whoosh—"
Lin Li made a big kick, sending the Beauty lady’s head rolling at his feet flying away, and then he discovered sothing both terrifying and heart-wrenching.
Zombies’ skulls are also quite hard.
Grass!
"Hiss—ha—hiss—ha—my big toe!"
But Lin Li quickly put his foot down because he discovered the Beauty lady’s headless body was still moving, seemingly trying to stand up.
Damn it, can zombies this patch even play without nerfing?
Not finishing her off would be sothing only idiot villains do; Lin Li would be soone who even scrambles other people’s eggs if he had to sentence nine generations.
So seeing this scene, Lin Li didn’t hesitate and charged forward, unleashing his wild instincts, bursting into action, going at it with the rod!
After implenting the words above—
Lin Li had completely smashed her chest open, and those nauseating and mysteriously colored organs spilled all over the ground, even sothing that might be called a heart broke, and the Beauty lady finally stopped moving.
Now she should be dead beyond dead, right?
Lin Li still didn’t let his guard down; who knows if zombies in this world even have the concept of death. Even if she revived and stood up now, Lin Li wouldn’t be surprised, just curse the system’s mom.
No movent.
Should be dead.
Now finally he can get to business.
Lin Li took a deep breath, lifted his foot, covered it:
"Hiss—ha—hiss—ha—my big toe!"
