Chapter 60: Trouble for President Chen?

Chapter 60: Trouble for President Chen?

The monster in the picture.

It's somewhat similar to the leaping zombies in the first secret realm.

It's also a humanoid monster.

It wears a tattered suit, stained with blood and dirt, with its skin almost completely rotten, looking terrifying. Its eyes are grayish-white, with almost no pupils visible. Its hair is messy, and there are dark bloodstains lingering at the corners of its mouth.

At the first glance of this monster.

Chen Ye immediately recognized it!

Indeed, these monsters are classic screen monsters on Earth, appearing in many movies and TV shows, and have even formed a unique culture. They have a very high level of global recognition.

It's a zombie!!

After confirming that the monster in the picture was a zombie, Chen Ye became somewhat puzzled.

According to the general consensus, the difficulty of the secret realms should increase progressively.

But zombies, such things, can be killed even by brave ordinary people, how could they be compared to zombies?

Why were the monsters in the first secret realm zombies, while the second secret realm had weaker zombies?

Is this sequence a bit wrong?

Or.

Is there something wrong with the zombies in the second secret realm?

"At present, it can be confirmed that these monsters are transformed from humans infected with a terrifying toxin. Their strength, speed, and behavior are almost identical to humans."

Teacher Liu's voice sounded, "And this terrifying toxin has affected their brains, making them completely irrational, only having a strong craving for living humans."

"Based on these behaviors, the authorities have named these monsters 'zombies'! Meaning, they are the walking dead who have lost their sanity."

For this official naming this time.

Chen Ye silently praised in his heart.

Finally, they got it right once.

The students were all attentively listening to the lecture.

Then, Teacher Liu operated the computer and found a video.

"Everyone, pay attention to this video. It's the process of zombies attacking humans."

As he finished speaking, Teacher Liu clicked play.

In the video, a female zombie immediately started moving.

She opened her mouth wide, emitting non-human-like low growls incessantly, and ran wildly towards the cameraman.

However, the cameraman obviously had some skills, wielding a baseball bat. With one swing, he directly smashed the female zombie's forehead.

Blood splattered everywhere.

With no head, the female zombie also fell straight to the ground.

The video ended here.

After watching the video, many students were stunned.

This so-called zombie monster is so weak!

Seeing this, Teacher Liu smiled and asked, "Do you feel that zombies are much weaker compared to the leaping zombies in the first secret realm? Why would such weak monsters appear in the second secret realm?"

Seeing many students nodding, Teacher Liu brought out another video.

"Then take a look at this video."

After speaking, he directly played it.

In the footage, there were two white young men standing on the rooftop of a dilapidated building, shooting at the zombies below with guns.

These zombies had no intelligence, naturally couldn't find the stairs, and gathered under the building, unable to reach them, staring angrily at the people above.

In the distance.

More and more zombies heard the gunfire and rushed over towards them.

The two white young men stood on the rooftop where the zombies couldn't reach, joyfully shooting at the zombies. It was as if they were playing a game with the potential points, extremely happy.

They were also very happy, laughing out loud from time to time.

But soon, the situation began to change...

As more and more zombies gathered, the later ones started climbing up directly on top of their companions.

Gradually, a terrifying phenomenon known as "zombie tower stacking" emerged.

These zombies were extremely frenzied. In order to reach the two living people on the rooftop, they did whatever it took, even if it meant sacrificing their own kind.

Even though many zombies were killed or crushed into mush during the tower stacking process, they showed no intention of stopping.

As a result.

Countless zombies surrounded the building, piling up higher and higher, swiftly climbing towards the rooftop.

Witnessing this incredibly shocking scene, the two white young men on the rooftop finally panicked.

They began to increase their attack speed.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

The sound of gunfire continued incessantly.

However, it still couldn't stop the zombies from advancing, with more and more using their bodies as stepping stones for their companions.

After a few minutes.

The zombies finally surged onto the rooftop.

Then, those two white young men were completely engulfed and torn apart by the zombies!

The more arrogant they were before, the more miserable they died now...

The video also ended here!

This video was shot from another taller skyscraper, with a well-chosen angle that clearly captured this terrifying and shocking scene. Even the students could see the desperate look in the eyes of the two white young men as the zombies rushed onto the rooftop.

After watching the video.

The classroom fell into a strange silence.

All the students were shocked by the content of the video just now.

The endless and densely packed army of zombies made their scalps numb and their bodies uncomfortable.

Even Chen Ye.

His brow furrowed.

Although he was very strong now, able to smash zombies into pieces with one punch.

However, faced with the endless army of thousands and countless zombies, even he would be in danger once surrounded.

Zombies don't care whether you can kill them or not.

They charge forward bravely, fearless of death!

Moreover, the zombies in the second secret realm were not the slow-moving type; they ran as fast as sprinters.

No matter how strong Chen Ye was, there would always be a time when he would tire out.

Once he was accidentally injured by a zombie and infected with the zombie toxin, then it would be over!

His current defense was still not truly invincible.

In addition.

Chen Ye vaguely felt that the scene of the zombie tower stacking in the video just now seemed familiar.

...

"Now, does anyone still think that the monsters in the second secret realm are easy to kill?"

Teacher Liu's face, at some point, became serious.

"In fact, in terms of danger level, among the first three secret realms, the second secret realm is the most dangerous. Because, in the second secret realm, there are endless hordes of zombies, and no one knows exactly how many of them there are!"

"And, these zombie monsters carry a large amount of toxins on their bodies. If you are scratched by them even a little, then, in just 12 seconds, you will be infected and become a new zombie monster, forever trapped in the secret realm."

Hearing this.

Chen Ye was full of astonishment.

Infected and turned into a new zombie in just 12 seconds?

This exaggerated setting was exactly like a zombie movie on Earth.

That movie was called "World War Z"!

Starring Hollywood actor "Brad Pitt," it was released in 2013.

The zombies in it ran as fast as sprinters, could tower stack, and infected people in just 12 seconds...

The various settings were almost identical to those in the second secret realm.

No wonder Chen Ye just felt that the behavior of these zombies looked familiar.

Now.

He speculated that there was at least an 80% chance that the zombies in the second secret realm came from that movie!

If the zombies in the second secret realm really came from "World War Z," then... it would be interesting.

Chen Ye wasn't worried at all.

Because, for zombies like these, there was an exaggerated weakness!

They were extremely afraid of something...

...

Seeing that some students were frightened, Teacher Liu continued, "Of course, the risk often corresponds to the reward. The second secret realm is also one of the easiest places to obtain a large number of potential points, after all, the monsters inside are endless."

"As long as you can kill enough monsters and survive, the rewards will be substantial!"

Many students who were confident in their own abilities were inspired by these words.

Teacher Liu continued the lecture:

"The background of the second secret realm is in a deserted giant city, where there are no longer any living people, only endless hordes of zombies."

"Later, I will distribute a map of the city in the second secret realm to you. This map was explored by countless predecessors at the cost of their lives. I hope you can remember it carefully. The map also marks some relatively safe defensive points for your reference."

"Zombie monsters only have one weak point, which is their head. Only by destroying the central nervous system of their brains can they be completely killed. Attacking other parts is useless."

"In addition, the second secret realm has a relatively short opening time, only half a day, which means you only need to endure for 12 hours in the realm to return safely."

"So, you don't need to worry about food issues for this trip to the secret realm."

Upon hearing the last sentence, the students' eyes lit up.

In the twenty days of the first secret realm, they had suffered enough, especially with food problems, which had almost become a nightmare for these students!

As for why they didn't bring compressed food into the secret realm?

Heh, an alloy weapon alone weighed at least a dozen kilograms!

And that was after the researchers tried to minimize the size of the weapons.

Otherwise, they would be even heavier.

You couldn't expect an alloy weapon to be sturdy, sharp, and lightweight at the same time, right?

Even if there were such excellent alloy metals, they would only exist in science fiction movies.

Only a few students who chose small weapons had the conditions to carry food...

At this moment.

A student couldn't help but ask, "Teacher, if the zombie toxin in the second secret realm is so powerful, what if someone gets infected at the last moment and comes back, turning into a zombie monster? Will it harm our world too?"

Hearing this question, Teacher Liu smiled and replied, "Don't worry, most of the things in the secret realm cannot be brought back."

"As for what you just said, if someone gets infected with the zombie virus at the last moment of returning, then this unlucky person will be left in the secret realm."

"The secret realm has its own set of operating rules and monitoring systems. Don't try to take advantage of loopholes, or you might end up harming yourself."

The students nodded thoughtfully at his words.

Teacher Liu glanced at the time and said, "The next opening time for the secret realm is September 1st. Today is already July 22nd, so you have 40 days to prepare."

"Let's stop here for today's lesson. We'll talk about the rest later. When you go back, remember to study the map more. It's best to memorize it directly in your mind."

"After all, the secret realm is very dangerous. If you encounter an emergency and need to escape, you may not have time to flip through the map to find your way... Alright, class dismissed!"

With that, Teacher Liu left the classroom.

...

In the days that followed.

Everyone returned to their usual routines.

After classes every day, they spent the remaining time training their abilities, very busy.

Only Chen Ye remained leisurely.

After finishing his daily training, he would read books and search for information, especially related to various toxins.

Because, he needed to find a toxin that would cause symptoms to appear quickly after infection, but wouldn't be too severe...

In the blink of an eye.

A month passed.

On this day, Chen Ye suddenly received a call from his mother.

From the phone call, he learned that his father, Chairman Chen, seemed to have encountered some minor trouble.
