Chapter 222 – Professor, Please Don’t Raise Zombies (12)
Just as he was about to pull Yan Luo out the door, he suddenly heard a soft, somewhat hoarse voice beside him, filled with reluctance.
“Yan, Che.”
Yan Che paused for a moment, turned to look at Yan Luo, and was amused by the pitiful expression on her face.
She really didn’t want to go out? She wasn’t even pretending she didn’t understand anymore.
“Call me again?”
“Yan Che.” Yan Luo hesitated for a moment, her small body twisting as she tried to get down, then called again.
“Are you really so unwilling to go out?” Yan Che raised an eyebrow, his steps slowing.
Of course, the less she had to deal with those black things, the better. She didn’t want to see them now. No matter how many times she’d seen them, she just couldn’t get used to it.
Yes, exactly like that!
Perhaps it was the clear mix of reluctance and fear in Yan Luo’s eyes that made Yan Che feel a little odd.
“Afraid? Why are you afraid?” Yan Che raised his hand and gently lifted her chin, his strikingly handsome, devilish face leaning in closer, his eyes filled with a scrutinizing gaze. “Have you encountered that Level 4 zombie?”
According to his earlier observations, Yan Luo had only recently come to this area, and that Level 4 zombie had been lingering just outside the region. So the chances of the two of them crossing paths were still high.
Also, this one of his had a speed ability, but that Level 4 zombie he had seen before, he remembered seeing traces of scorch marks from flames. Even though there was a one-level difference, the odds were still stacked against Yan Luo.
Especially since his own little zombie was so adorably stupid.
In the end, Yan Che dragged her out, and Yan Luo followed behind, refusing to look at the black things around them.
Perhaps it was because Yan Che’s ability was so strong, and with a Level 5 zombie like Yan Luo by his side, the zombies around them intentionally avoided their movement.
Yan Che led the way, and Yan Luo followed behind, finally experiencing, at such close quarters, what it was like to be in an apocalypse after evading it for so long.
The eerie sky, the shadows of figures drifting between broken walls, the towering black aura, everything seemed to portend something ominous.
It made those who accidentally found themselves in this place shudder in fear.
“I found it.” Yan Che’s footsteps suddenly halted as he spoke.
Yan Luo followed his gaze.
She too felt a strong sense of threat. A strong figure leapt onto the wall, looking down at them from above, its hoarse growl laced with warning.
Wearing a tattered work uniform stained with dark blood, he had an ordinary face, pale skin, and his eyes, much brighter red than Yan Luo’s, locked onto them.
As a Level 4 zombie, his movements were already much closer to those of a human compared to the other zombies around them.
Yan Luo took a small step back. Though he was getting closer to human behavior, still… couldn’t they give her a more normal dimension?
Even the blackened male leads in normal worlds weren’t normal, but now in the apocalypse world? Was someone targeting her?!
She was just about to ask if this was some kind of conspiracy against her, when Yan Che noticed her shrinking back behind him. His face darkened as he looked at the Level 4 zombie. “Luoluo, step back.”
As soon as he spoke, the young girl seemed to have received some kind of pardon. She swiftly darted behind a nearby wall.
It was only at moments like this that Yan Che felt like he had raised a zombie with speed ability.
A faint gleam flashed in his eyes. Around him, massive vines erupted from the ground. This time, Yan Che didn’t hold back. Without giving the zombie a chance to react, he waved his hand, and the vines came crashing down.
