Chapter 71: Level 4 (2)

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

“Madam, what’s your name?”

“Xu… Xu Rufang…”

“The smell of blood in your house is very strong. Did something happen?”

Xu Rufang quickly shook her head and said uneasily, “No, nothing happened.”

After saying that, she vaguely glanced at the door of the second bedroom and quickly said, “There is no problem here. Please leave.”

Xu Rufang’s att.i.tude had already made the situation clear.

It was the apocalypse!

When survivors saw people in military uniforms, they might cry, doubt, or seek help. However, they would not ask the soldiers to get lost quickly!

Bai Tianyu squinted his eyes and slowly scanned Xu Rufang.

He could clearly see that Xu Rufang’s clothes were stained in blood.

However, it could not be her own blood—because Xu Rufang was obviously not injured.

Bai Tianyu’s first reaction was… this was a villain! She might kill people for fun or even for food! Otherwise, there was no way to explain the bloodstains on her body!

His gaze then drifted to the second bedroom.

Bai Tianyu walked towards the second bedroom and said, “Madam, I have to inspect your house. Rest a.s.sured, I won’t wrong any good person, but I won’t let any bad person off either!”

Because this was the duty of a guardian.

In fact, deep down, Bai Tianyu had already cla.s.sified Xu Rufang as a bad person—but it still needed to be verified.

As Bai Tianyu slowly approached the second bedroom, Xu Rufang became visibly anxious.

She was just an ordinary housewife, and in her panic, her brain overloaded….

“I told you to leave immediately. Nothing had happened in my house!”

As she spoke, she rushed forward, intending to hug Bai Tianyu from behind.

Bai Tianyu dodged Xu Rufang’s hug and clenched his fists. He turned his head and said coldly, “I could consider you to have attacked me, and therefore, I have the right to defend myself! I don’t want the situation to escalate to the worst possible outcome, so Madam, please stop resisting and confess!”

Xu Rufang froze on the spot.

Her brains and experience alone were not enough to deal with the situation in front of her.

A voice suddenly came from the second bedroom behind Bai Tianyu.

“Mom, what’s happening?”

As soon as he finished speaking, Bai Tianyu abruptly turned his head towards the second bedroom, and Xu Rufang’s face was filled with panic.

Amidst this tense atmosphere, the door of the second bedroom slowly opened, emitting a foul smell, and a frail figure slowly walked out.

The person who walked out of the second bedroom appeared to be an ordinary and unremarkable individual.

He was around 18 or 19 years old, just coming of age, with a light yellow dyed punk hairstyle, a skinny body like a bamboo pole, and average facial features resembling Xu Rufang to some extent.

He was wearing light green pajamas, with large stains on the pajamas, as if they had been soaked in mud, and emitting an indescribable strange odor.

Seeing her son, Xu Rufang’s expression froze for a moment, then she said with a complicated expression, “Lian… Lian Jie… This is… This is…”

“He’s a soldier, right?”

The young man named Lian Jie smiled politely at Bai Tianyu. “h.e.l.lo, I’m Lian Jie…”

Bai Tianyu’s brows slowly relaxed. He raised his hand and pointed at the second bedroom. “Is that your room?”

Lian Jie nodded and said, “Yes.

“I was resting just now. Perhaps my mother didn’t want you to disturb my rest, so she didn’t let you in. I admit that my mother’s behavior is indeed a little strange, but I think it’s because she’s under a lot of pressure and is overly protective of me…”

As he spoke, Lian Jie turned sideways and opened the door, revealing the dim and dark second bedroom.

He smiled and said to Bai Tianyu, “Are you still planning to come in and take a look?”

Bai Tianyu pondered for a moment and shook his head. “No, since there’s nothing wrong, I’ll leave now.”

With that, Bai Tianyu turned around and left.

Seeing Bai Tianyu turn around and leave the house, Xu Rufang heaved a sigh of relief.

In her opinion, she had managed to fool him this time.

But she did not notice that Lian Jie was staring intently at Bai Tianyu’s back, his eyes slowly flickering with red light.

As Bai Tianyu walked away, his muscles remained tense. He appeared calm as he left but remained vigilant at all times.

Lian Jie suddenly spoke, “Mr. Soldier…”

“Ah?”

“You noticed, didn’t you?”

“Hmm?”

Bai Tianyu turned to look at Lian Jie, his eyebrows raised, wearing a puzzled expression.

But Lian Jie smiled mysteriously, “I have no heartbeat!”

The atmosphere suddenly froze.

Linting Community, in the community square.

Lin Bai and the others formed a battle formation, surrounded Building 3, waiting for Bai Tianyu’s command before swarming forward to deal with the zombies.

However, they did not hear anything for a long time from Bai Tianyu who was inside the building.

They could only continue to wait.

Until a loud “boom” suddenly came from the third floor.

The wall exploded, and a faint red figure broke through the wall, cras.h.i.+ng out of the building and landing steadily on the ground.

It was Bai Tianyu.

At this moment, Bai Tianyu’s height had already increased to about 2.3 meters. His muscular body was even bursting out of the military uniform, with intertwined muscles on his bare upper body, displaying a light red color!

This was Bai Tianyu’s superpower—Blood Boiling!

There were no fancy effects. The effect of this superpower was simple. It doubled the physical qualities when activated.

But often, the simpler the effect, the more overwhelming the combat power!

Just as he landed and stabilized himself, Bai Tianyu shouted to his team members, “You guys leave first!”

After saying that, he looked up at the hole he had created on the third floor.

Bai Tianyu, who could crush a Level 3 Tyrant, had an unprecedented solemn expression at this moment.

Because he knew that he had encountered a big guy this time.

The zombies were dead.

They were just corpses that could move.

Therefore, zombies would not have a heartbeat!

When Bai Tianyu opened the door of Xu Rufang’s house on the third floor, he clearly sensed Xu Rufang’s heartbeat—his hearing as a Level 3 Awakened was indeed capable of that.

However, from the beginning to the end, he did not hear Lian Jie’s heartbeat.

One could imagine how surprised Bai Tianyu was when Lian Jie walked out of the second bedroom.

From the first moment he saw Lian Jie, Bai Tianyu realized that something was off. So, he wanted to retreat first and gather reinforcements to deal with the situation here.

Unexpectedly, Lian Jie was much smarter than he had imagined.

Bai Tianyu’s little scheme did not escape Lian Jie’s eyes at all!

Low, heavy breathing sounds faintly emanated from the hole.

Until Lian Jie’s thin figure appeared at the hole.

He looked down at Bai Tianyu and the combat team gathered beside him, a strange smile appearing on his pale face.

“So much… so much food!!”

His mouth opened wider and wider.

Saliva flowed out of the corners of his mouth uncontrollably, dripping until it formed a line.

His eyes became redder and redder. The tyranny and appet.i.te of the zombies gradually overwhelmed Lian Jie’s scarce sanity and intelligence!

“I really want to! I really want to eat so badly!”

“Boom!”

His back exploded.

A total of eight python-like flesh-colored tentacles stretched out from Lian Jie’s back, making him look like Dr. Octopus in the movie—powerful and eerie.

Except for Bai Tianyu, the combat team members could not help but take two steps back.

Looking at Lian Jie waving his tentacles, everyone gulped.

“What… what is this?”

The only response they received was Bai Tianyu’s calm voice.

A zombie.

“Level 4 zombie..”
