"What do we have that's worth him risking coming here to steal? Our food is almost gone, although we still have plenty of bottled water. If he wants water, we could just trade some of it for food," Lin Mancha said nonchalantly.
"You're so naïve! If he can move freely around the school, how could he possibly be lacking food and water? The snack bar next to the playground could feed him for a year and a half!" Zhuang Qiang said venomously, "He must be after the women here! His purpose in coming here must be to take away the women he's interested in! Haven't you noticed? All the people he's saved and taken to the city are women, not a single man!"
With Zhuang Qiang pointing this out, everyone became more alert, and their gaze towards Alex grew more complex.
Just then, a loud roar came from the staircase connecting the third-floor corridor to the rooftop. The entire building seemed to tremble slightly. The burly zombie had appeared! Holding half a zombie's body in its hand, it seemed to be chewing on something, with thick, dirty blood flowing from its mouth. Compared to when they had seen it before, this burly zombie seemed even stronger!
Alex frowned slightly when he saw the burly zombie eating the body of another zombie. "You don't need to speculate about his intentions anymore! He's dead for sure now," Shen Jiabin said, taking pleasure in the misfortune, "That monster, even if all of us together can't beat it, he, a level-ten cripple, is undoubtedly doomed!"
"Should we help him? Maybe he did come to save us," Lin Mancha turned away, unable to bear watching what was about to happen. She remembered the scene of one of their companions being eaten by the burly zombie. Her kindness made it unbearable for her to watch any longer.
"Help him? Why should we help him? What does he have to do with us? Even if he did come with good intentions to save us, he shouldn't be so foolish as to provoke that monster. That's just asking for death! Besides, that monster is so strong, even if a few of us go, we surely won't be able to beat it. We would just be going to our deaths!" The boy who had always been opposed to taking risks said fearfully.
"Xiao Dong is right. This guy is asking for death. If he dies, it's his own fault for provoking that monster," Gu Fanghua also said coldly.
Zhuang Qiang's earlier words had struck a nerve with Gu Fanghua. There were only three women in their group, and his girl, Tang Jingyan, was the most beautiful. He had every reason to worry that Alex's purpose was to take away his goddess. He absolutely couldn't tolerate anyone who threatened his goddess. Right now, he wished for Alex to die as soon as possible.
"Hey, be careful! That monster is very powerful, you better run!" Tang Jingyan, seeing Alex slowly approaching the burly zombie, couldn't help but call out to warn Alex.
Just when everyone thought Alex was certainly going to die, Alex raised his long-handled Mo Dao and charged towards the roaring burly zombie.
"Idiot! Really stupid!"
"Overestimating himself! Does he really think he can kill that monster?"
"Seeking death! Truly an idiot, he deserves to die!"
"Why is he so foolish? Doesn't he want to live?"
Seeing Alex charging at the burly zombie, Shen Jiabin and the others couldn't help but start cursing.
The blade of the long-handled sword gleamed with a cold light under the sunlight, a flash that was fleeting. Then, the arm of the burly zombie heavily fell to the ground! A large amount of dirty blood spurted out, splattering the nearby corridor's glass with dark purple stains. Just in the initial clash, Alex had chopped off an arm of the burly zombie!
Including Shen Jiabin, everyone on the rooftop was completely dumbfounded. They had never imagined that the burly zombie would be so easily defeated. The burly zombie let out an angry wail, grabbing another zombie with its remaining arm and viciously lunging at Alex again.
The hearts of the people on the rooftop pounded fiercely, each of them unconsciously standing on tiptoes, fixated on the unfolding fight. Alex's figure lightly pivoted, and the blade flashed again. This time, what fell to the ground was the head of the burly zombie.
Seeing Alex easily slay the formidable burly zombie, the people on the rooftop were stunned, completely frozen in place. They couldn't comprehend how Alex, who seemed like a weak young man, could so effortlessly slay the monstrous burly zombie.
Alex calmly walked over to the body of the burly zombie and collected it into his spatial bag. This burly zombie was obviously much stronger than the previous ones he had killed, both in physique and strength.
Similarly, the attribute points and apocalypse currency he would receive for burying this zombie were likely to be more. Having achieved his main objective, Alex satisfactorily stored the body, glanced at Shen Jiabin and the others on the rooftop, then climbed back onto the drainage pipe, and with a powerful leap, landed on the balcony of the gymnasium.
