Ning Su: “It is my honor to be on the same side as the Yongming Guild.”
Ning Su: “The people in the Yongming Guild are very strong. With you, I won’t be afraid anymore.”
Ning Su: “Can I hug your thigh?”
Ning Su blinked his eyes.
[...]
[I finally understand why he was able to make it to the finals of the guild competition.]
[He is... quite cute.]
[If he blinks at me like that, I can take him with me too.]
[Why do I sense a bit of manipulation?]
Zhu Shuangshuang and Su Wangsheng held their foreheads, finding it hard to watch.
Zhu Shuangshuang covered her face. “Why is he like that again? I thought he didn’t want to hug someone’s thigh anymore.”
Su Wangsheng: “Do you really believe he just wants to hug someone’s thigh?”
Zhu Shuangshuang: “Do you really think he’s just deceiving people and has no intention of hugging someone’s thigh at all?”
“......”
Guo Xiao was also stunned.
He opened his mouth, hesitated, and asked, “What’s your name? Which guild are you from?”
Ning Su: “My name is Ning Su.”
That was where it ended.
Guo Xiao wasn’t without suspicion, but he saw with his own eyes that Ning Su was in the zombie faction.
At this moment, the faction was most important.
When Ning Su heard he was from the Yongming Guild, his eyes lit up. Guo Xiao assumed his guild wasn’t great and didn’t really want to mention his own guild.
Guo Xiao: “Your face isn’t dirty enough. Make it dirtier.”
When Ning Su appeared in that dark house, he was already filthy, with two streaks of dirt on his face.
Hearing this, he immediately bent down, grabbed a handful of dirt from the ground, and smeared his face into a “flower cat” face.
Just as he intended.
He seemed to have figured out how to play this game.
Ning Su: “How do you identify players from the human and zombie faction? Like me, if I’m mixed in with the zombies and they don’t bite me, does that mean I’m a player from the zombie faction?”
While in that room, Ning Su read the barrage of comments and looked for food. During this time, active players might have discovered something.
Guo Xiao nodded. “As soon as I entered the dungeon, I ran into a group of zombies with a player from the human faction. That human faction player was immediately bitten to death by the zombies, but they didn’t bite me and just walked past me.”
Ning Su was slightly startled. A player had already died just at the beginning.
Guo Xiao was a bit excited. “This dungeon naturally favors our zombie faction. Zombie players have a huge advantage.”
If it’s really as he said, then it indeed favored the zombie faction players, and not just by a small margin.
The first player was bitten to death by zombies. Zombies were one of the main threats to the players’ lives in this dungeon. They only attack human faction players and not zombie faction players. How could that be fair?
It couldn’t be that simple.
Ning Su didn’t say much. He looked at the bloodstains on Guo Xiao and seemed to be in thought.
Guo Xiao had no injuries on his body, yet there was a lot of blood with clear smudges. Ning Su, who had lived through many years of the apocalypse, immediately understood the situation.
These zombies were lured here by him.
Simply because he knew there were people here, regardless of whether any of them were actual players.
Whether they truly experienced the apocalypse or not, once they entered this kind of environment, the evil in human nature started to take root.
This sprout would eventually grow into a crazy tree that would feed on human blood.
Ning Su listened to the screams and fighting sounds coming from the supermarket. “Ah, then I’m even less afraid.”
“What should we do now?”
Guo Xiao said, “I’m not sure how many human faction players are inside. Let’s wait for the zombies to fight them first, then we’ll go in and take a look.”
He glanced at Ning Su. “Then we’ll find the zombie faction players. Let’s go look for the Yongming Guild members first. I know how to find them.”
Ning Su nodded happily, “Okay.”
Seeing that he wasn’t afraid to look for the Yongming Guild members at all, Guo Xiao felt even more reassured.
The two of them waited in the small room for a while. When the screams and fighting sounds outside ceased, they finally came out.
Guo Xiao carefully stepped over the scattered limbs and blood, keeping his hand on the gun at his waist. After a while, he realized something was wrong.
Where was the other person?
He turned his head and saw Ning Su and two children frantically looting with burlap sacks.
Guo Xiao: “?”
Ning Su was directly loading food and daily necessities from the shelves into his crystal ball.
Perhaps to increase the survival difficulty of the dungeon, general storage props couldn’t preserve food brought in from the base, but food in the dungeon world could be stored for a long time.
Ning Su collected happily.
Each child was dragging one side of a large burlap sack, quickly stuffing various items into it.
Neither Gui Sheng nor Manman had ever been to a supermarket before, and their eyes were shining with happiness.
There was such a place, with everything inside!
Seeing the two children looking like they were in paradise, Ning Su was afraid they might misunderstand, so he explained while taking things, “This is the apocalypse. The world order has collapsed. When you find food and other supplies, grab them quickly. In other worlds, these things belong to someone, and you need to use money or points to exchange for them.”
Manman nodded, “I know, Mom.”
Gui Sheng spread his little arms. “I like the apocalypse!”
Guo Xiao’s face darkened, and he couldn’t hold back anymore, “What are you doing?”
Were they planning to settle down here?
He regretted bringing this person along. He seemed weak and foolish, offering no assistance at all.
He had thought that anyone chosen by the major guilds to enter the finals would be an elite player from the base, and having one more ally would mean one more layer of security.
What was this person?
Ning Su: “Almost done, almost done. I’m coming right away.”
He wasn’t deliberately slacking off; he genuinely didn’t know which faction he belonged to, or whether he should help the humans or the zombies.
Even though he now knew the Yongming Guild was part of the zombie faction, he couldn’t be sure if he himself was part of the human faction.
In the information provided by Shi Tianzhu, he had seen situations where two major guilds belonged to the same faction.
Otherwise, before entering the instance, the doctor wouldn’t have asked Shi Tianzhu, after she emphasized that the top priority was to unite with players from the same faction, what they should do if the Yongming Guild ignored everything and tried to kill them.
Ning Su spoke earnestly, “Don’t rush. In the apocalypse, food is life; it’s the most important thing.”
Guo Xiao: “...”
What’s with that experienced attitude of yours?
Ning Su took out two rows of yogurt from the crystal ball and handed them to him. “Here, take these. Food really is important.”
Guo Xiao looked at Ning Su’s smile, which couldn’t be hidden even by the dirt on his face, and at the two children staring intently at the yogurt. After a moment’s hesitation, he took the yogurt with a lowered head. “Hurry, see if there are any players here.”
The supermarket wasn’t large, and they didn’t find any living people after searching around.
This was unusual because there weren’t any zombies in the supermarket either.
Someone must have dealt with these zombies.
They hadn’t seen anyone leave through the entrance, so the person who dealt with the zombies should still be here.
Both of them looked towards the door of the supermarket’s storage room.
Guo Xiao approached the door and knocked twice. “Is anyone there?”
Thanks for the update
