Though many professors were more reputable and knowledgeable than him, they were not as young as Luo Jingyi, and those who were younger did not possess his capabilities.
Even though the alliance eventually broke down, he still obtained sufficient benefits for himself.
He emerged as a Tier One Evolver.
But the sudden outbreak of the zombie tide forced him to curl up in a dusty exhibition car in a mall, holding two Pan-energy Crystals to replenish his energy.
Thanks to the car’s excellent sealing, the vague zombies around surprisingly did not notice him.
Luo Jingyi cautiously lifted his head from the reclined chair, looking at the rearview mirror at the girl sobbing in the corner.
She was his student, his most excellent and favorite student.
Her young and firm body had once inspired him countless times.
After the apocalypse, the girl not only became his right-hand but also got herself a boyfriend.
Luo Jingyi didn’t mind these things, because the boyfriend was already dead.
The girl was crying for her deceased boyfriend, occasionally attracting sniffing zombies above her before they moved away.
This puzzled Luo Jingyi, making him hesitate to call out to the girl.
He felt there was something subtly changed about her.
Heavy footsteps were approaching, a Tier One Butcher walked in from the main entrance of the hall, hoisting a hefty Guan Blade, the heavy broadsword scratched the floor of the supermarket to bits.
Luo Jingyi’s lips twitched, if he remembered correctly, this was a metal ornament from a large sculpture five kilometers away.
Never expected it to actually be used in battle.
The Butcher’s pair of scarlet little eyes spun wildly, first looking at the girl solemnly in the corner, then seeing the exhibition car in the center of the display, revealing a joyful grin, dragging the Guan Blade over.
He loved opening little boxes!
Luo Jingyi suddenly recalled this, drenched in cold sweat.
He grabbed the door handle, getting ready to rush out.
Suddenly, a whip-like bone joint abruptly wrapped around the Butcher’s leg, the Butcher raised his head in confusion.
Luo Jingyi followed the bone whip with his eyes, his pupils suddenly contracted.
He saw the sobbing girl gradually stand up, her original height of about 1.63 meters growing by over 40 centimeters, her head painfully curling back into her chest cavity, leaving just the tall shoulders and the scarlet eyes peeking through the fracture.
One hand wrapped a bone whip around the Butcher, the other transformed into a meter-long bone blade.
Her entire body was covered by a grey-black keratin layer.
’Slaughterer!’
The name instantly emerged in Luo Jingyi’s mind.
Although he didn’t know why the girl turned into a Slaughterer, the two monsters were engaged in a brawl.
The Butcher was strong and wielded weapons, but the Guan Blade, over five meters long, couldn’t be of much use in close combat.
He was being stabbed fiercely by the Tier One Slaughterer.
The bone blade over a meter long plunged into the Butcher’s obese belly with a slash.
The sound alerted the zombies, who quickly gathered around.
Though Luo Jingyi was curious about the outcome of this zombie infight, self-preservation took precedence, fleeing while they were locked in combat.
Using the skills of a Tier One Evolver and the self-crafted weapon in his hand, he took down a few troublesome ordinary zombies, rushing out onto the street via another door.
Instead of moving through the building interiors, he chose to walk directly on the street.
Compared to the dark and complex interiors of the buildings, the streets proved to be safer.
Just as he stepped outside, he witnessed a group of Scavengers sprinting past.
Both sides were momentarily stunned, recognizing each other as humans, then hurriedly converged and ran together.
It wasn’t so much about trusting one another, rather the pursuing zombies left them no time for caution.
"Run fast, we’ll be safe once we reach the train!"
One of them called out softly.
Luo Jingyi was taken aback.
"What train?"
"The train!"
"What train?"
"Armed train!"
