Being a Goofy NPC in an Infinite Game

Su Qiong was a newbie guide NPC in a horror game. Other NPCs in the game were ferocious, bloody, and missing limbs. Only Su Qiong had a cute, doll-like face, wore a bling-bling adorable uniform, an...

Chapter 53: Zombie Mountains and Seas (IV) (1)

"Su Jian, what's wrong with you?"

Hearing Su Jing's screams, his companions gathered around him, thinking that he had encountered a terrible disaster.

You know, Su Jing didn't shout so exaggeratedly when facing the leader of the circle.

Could it be that he encountered a monster more terrifying than the circle leader?

"I..." Su Qiong was so frightened that he raised his finger and showed it to them pitifully, "I touched something dirty."

His white and clean fingers were stained with a little indistinguishable green liquid, the texture of which was a bit like thick phlegm.

“……?”

"That's it?"

"Yeah." Su Jing nodded.

"oh."

"Just wash up, it's okay, everyone can go home."

"Su Jing, your mysophobia needs treatment."

His companions quickly dispersed, leaving Su Jing alone standing there, raising his finger, feeling extremely aggrieved.

What's wrong with mysophobia!

It's disgusting to touch dirty things!

He was sad for a few seconds and heard the sound of ERROR coming from above his head.

"Give me your hand."

Su Jing reacted faster than his brain and reached out his hand.

ERROR got a piece of cloth from somewhere and wiped his hands clean.

Don't let go until you are sure there is no residue left.

"Next time, be careful." ERROR warned, "Don't touch anything unclear."

"Oh." Su Qi retracted his hand, silently took out the magic wand, and poked here and there.

Magic Wand: ???

It doesn't matter if I'm dirty, right?

After ERROR wiped Su Jing's hands, he did not throw away the cloth immediately. Instead, he carefully observed the green dirt.

Its shape is strange and difficult to identify. In the "IF" world, there is no place that can study and analyze its composition, so it is impossible to determine what substance it is.

ERROR observed its appearance and reluctantly concluded that it was probably similar to human body tissue... or zombie tissue.

"Oh, damn! I ran into that thing too."

"Disgusting, it's here too."

"Ugh! I was wrong. I shouldn't have laughed at Little Snack just now."

Several friends around parted the grass and observed carefully, and found similar sticky traces, with each expression more devastated than the other.

ERROR heard the sound and walked around the places where everyone found traces. He found that the traces found by everyone were connected to form a circle, surrounding the villa.

And this circle is the range that zombies cannot get close to.

"If I'm not mistaken..." ERROR threw the cloth in his hand over.

Sure enough, the cloth stained with the green substance drove the zombies away as soon as it touched them.

"Is this even possible? It's amazing."

"I was wrong. I shouldn't have thought you were disgusting."

"If we collect them all, we'll be invincible!"

Su Jian hid behind ERROR timidly, "Do you really want to collect them?"

Even though that thing could stop zombies, Su Jing still felt extremely disgusted.

"It's difficult to collect." ERROR concluded, "Besides, we can't draw a circle around it at all times."

Yu Qimiao analyzed, "If we knew what it was and could find it in this world, it would be much easier."

Lu Shufan: "Have you seen this thing along the way?"

"No." An An paused for a few seconds and added, "But, I have seen this color somewhere."

"where?"

An An shook his head, indicating that he couldn't remember.

Everyone showed disappointed looks.

"Anyway, let's keep an eye out to see if there's anything similar." Yu Qimiao stared at the difficult-to-collect substances, pondered for a long time, turned back to the room, took out the injection from the medicine box, and temporarily put the collectible part into the syringe.

It's a very small amount, less than ten milliliters in total.

“Although it’s a small amount, it can be used in crisis situations and at least help us complete the fourth street.”

Xi Huaiji provided information before that starting from the fourth street, there is a possibility of encountering "survivors".

Those survivors have more information and perhaps even ways to become immune to the zombie virus.

As long as you are immune to the virus, the NPCs in Zombie Mountain and Sea are nothing to be afraid of.

"let's go."

"good."

Relying on the meager amount of green matter and the low-level zombies that Lu Shufan had abducted earlier, the few people advanced cautiously five meters.

More and more zombies gathered around, each with its fangs bared and claws bared, looking extremely ferocious.

Su Jian was a little curious about how zombies identified players.

They cannot speak, have sunken eye sockets, shriveled noses, and appear to have lost their five senses, but they can accurately locate the player's location among a group of zombies.

"Hey, I want to do a test, it might be a little dangerous."

"you say."

The friend responded immediately and didn't take the word 'danger' seriously.

It's so funny. I've tried to kill myself so many times in the game. Danger is always with me.

Su Qiong: "I want to test how zombies determine humans' location. Next, we'll split up and each give out different biological signals to see who they'll go to."

"I see. This test is very necessary."

Before this, they tried every possible way to prevent the zombies from approaching.

However, if they block them at the source and prevent the zombies from finding them, wouldn't that be a permanent solution?

Everyone quickly arranged their division of labor, and then dispersed in all directions at lightning speed.

"Come on, I'm here! Come find me!" Lu Shufan jumped to a high place and jumped along the rooftops of several buildings, artificially creating a surround sound effect.

Zombies should be able to hear sounds, but they can't tell the direction from the sound. They were being tossed around by Lu Shufan, like a bunch of headless flies.

Several lost zombies bumped into each other face to face, which was a very funny scene.

An An went around to the other side and cut open the arm without blinking, letting the bloody smell spread out and then dripping it on several different places.

The zombies were also confused and could not find An An by the smell of blood.

Su Jian used bandages to make it look like a human and also put a camouflage cloak on it.

The mimicry cloak can confuse the senses of players and NPCs, making it appear no different from a human in the eyes of others.

Su Jing placed the humanoid bandage wrapped in a camouflage cloak into the group of zombies and shook it deliberately.

The zombies probably knew there was something, so they stretched out their hands, but only grabbed a handful of air and were unable to accurately grasp Su Jian's bandage.

"Hearing, sight, smell, none of them seem right. Could it be taste?"

"Impossible." ERROR denied, "The zombies didn't catch you and try to taste you."

"Then how does it manage to find me so accurately every time?" Su Jing was puzzled.

Just as he was lost in confusion, he suddenly heard Moi shout, "I know! It's body temperature!"

"body temperature?"

"Moi, how do you know?"

Moi hid in a safe area and took a while to calm down before telling everyone.

"My puppetization level has reached 20%. Although I didn't feel anything myself, just now, when Brother Yuntian pulled my hand to run away, I noticed that his palm was very hot."

"Huh?" Shi Yuntian spread out his hands and said casually, "My temperature is high."

Moi: "Brother Yuntian has always protected me and my sister. I lost too much blood before, and when he hugged me, I didn't feel this hot. Then I found that my body temperature is different from that of humans."

"Can I touch you?" After getting permission, Su Jing touched Moi's face, which was indeed cold.

He had never touched a zombie, but he was sure that zombies did not have human body temperature.

"Indeed not." An An, who had touched the zombie, confirmed Su Jing's statement, but received an indescribable look.

Su Jing moved a little further away from him.

This person has touched a zombie and is no longer clean.

An An slowly typed out a few question marks.

"When Brother Yuntian and I appear before the zombies separately, they will prioritize chasing Brother Yuntian. I found something close to body temperature and put it on my body, and the zombies will come after me." Moi analyzed the situation and told them his conclusion, "So, the key to how zombies find us is body temperature."

"As long as you make your body cold, you can avoid zombies."

"But what should we do?" everyone worried.

"I can!" Su Qiong said happily after hearing this plan, "I can use the mimicry cloak and bandages to change my body." After saying this, Su Qiong looked at his companions and said, "As for you... I got it!"

Su Jing took out the familiar coffin.

"Uh." When Lu Shufan saw the coffin, he had some unpleasant memories.

"You can..." Su Qi noticed his attitude and was about to speak.

Lu Shufan immediately expressed his opinion, "I want to go in! I love coffins the most!"

"Oh."

"Promising."

Everyone laughed at him with Lu Shufan's attitude.

Su Jian praised his coffin enthusiastically, "Inside the coffin is my space. Once you enter, the zombies won't be able to detect any of your presence. Moreover, the coffin is very sturdy and has a defensive effect."

"It sounds great, but..." ERROR asked unceremoniously, "Can it move?"

"...No." Su Jing wilted.

"It would be nice if there were Hot Wheels, so the coffin could run on its own."

"Where can you find such a legendary item?"

"If you mean wheels that can be used for transportation, I've seen them before," Shi Yuntian said. "Last time, I couldn't help but get into a fight with someone. Halfway through the fight, he ran off on the wheels."

"Do you remember who he is?"

"I don't remember, but I know he was one of the leaders who survived."

"Everyone survived again?"

"Are we in trouble with this guild?"

Su Qiong thought of the military advisor he had previously dismissed and said quietly, "I don't want to have any contact with them anymore."

"Indeed, asking them to borrow weapons is like courting disaster."

"If it's President Xi Huaiji, I might consider it."

"Speaking of which, where did Xi Huaiji go?"

“A-choo——”

Xi Huaiji, who had already crossed the fourth street, sneezed loudly.

"President, are you okay? Have you been infected by the zombie virus?"

"You're the one who's infected." Xi Huaiji glared at him. "I've never heard that sneezing is a symptom of infection. What's going on? Is my immune system clearing the virus?"

After entering the game, physiological functions only maintain superficial characteristics, and metabolism and immunity have long stopped.

If the zombie virus is really an ordinary virus, perhaps the immune system of advanced players can really kill it.

Xi Huaiji put aside her absurd thoughts and asked the people around her if they had any new discoveries.

"Yes, there must be survivors here, but they discovered us and hid them all."

"Why are they hiding?" Xi Huaiji was confused. "Also, how did you know they were hiding?"

"Because I found a car with a warm hood and no one around."

"A car." Xi Huaiji thought thoughtfully, "The setting of this world is related to magic. The car should not be a simple car. It may become a key prop."

"Then I drive it away?"

Xi Huaiji: "Yes. Also, tell the news about the Fourth Street to other members of the guild."

"Okay, President."

Xi Huaiji added, "Send another copy to Yu Qimiao."

Hearing this, the other players were somewhat unhappy.

The fourth street was so dangerous that they had to fight hard to get through.

Sharing intelligence with the Jijing Guild is our duty, but why should we share it with other guilds?

Every time Xi Huaiji traded with Yu Qimiao, she was the one who suffered the loss.

She was originally ranked first in the entire server, but the Orphan Alliance snatched away too many props and system rewards, resulting in Xi Huaiji now having to stay in third place in the entire server.

This time, their guild entered the circle early and seized the initiative.

She had originally planned to send Xi Huaiji back to the TOP position in one go, so why did she share the news with the Orphan Alliance?

"I have my own considerations." Xi Huaiji saw his opinion and explained calmly, "It's already dangerous after we crossed the fourth street, not to mention there are even more dangerous moderate and severe infection areas behind. The Orphan Alliance is full of strong people, and they often take unconventional approaches, so they are more capable of exploring the way."

"Excuse me, there are many masters in the Extreme Realm, and we have the advantage in numbers. Everyone is willing to sacrifice for the president!"

"Yes, we are also capable of exploring the way."

Xi Huaiji sighed deeply, "That's what I'm worried about."

"President..."

"It's not easy for anyone to hold on until now. I have a feeling the next few circles won't be too many. Once we get through them, we can return to reality." Xi Huaiji looked at them, "I don't want too many casualties in the extreme realm."

Therefore, even if it is clear, you will suffer losses every time you trade with Yu Qi Miao.

She also knew that if she gave up her advantage again and again, she would only become more and more passive and would not be able to get the system rewards.

But Xi Huaiji still chose to cooperate.

She is not only a senior player of "IF", but also the president of Jijing, carrying the mission of leading everyone out of the game.

"President... I understand." Several burly men nearby were so moved by Xi Huaiji that their eyes were filled with tears.

Players outside of Jijing may not understand why all members of Jijing Guild are willing to serve Xi Huaiji.

They didn't know that the Jijing Guild was not working for Xi Huaiji, but Xi Huaiji was fighting for the entire guild.

"Just do it if you understand." Xi Huaiji looked forward, frowning slightly.

This journey is dangerous, I hope they have a way.

On the other side, Yu Qimiao received Xi Huaiji's message and immediately synchronized it with everyone.

“The topographic map of Fourth Street is so long!”

"President Xi has already mapped out the least dangerous route. There were two large zombies on this path, and they were also dealt with by President Xi. We just need to follow that route."

"Why would Xi Huaiji give us a strategy for no reason?" Shi Yuntian, having been fooled by the whole team surviving, developed paranoia. "Is there a conspiracy?"

"It's not a conspiracy, it's an open conspiracy."

"Yes, Xi Huaiji is much smarter than the fools who all survived. She must have realized that the road ahead is too dangerous, so she asked us to clear the way."

Shi Yuntian thought for a moment, "Then let's not let her get away with it!"

“…”

"Boss Killer." Lu Shufan reminded helplessly, "Do you know that Xi Huaiji is almost level 200?"

"She's so capable, why doesn't she make her own way?"

"No!" Lu Shufan was about to collapse. "Have you forgotten? The level of zombies is related to the player's level. If Xi Huaiji gets infected, it means we will have another opponent with a large number of weapons and magical equipment, a high level, and protected by the entire Extreme Realm."

"Lu Shufan is right."

"So we have to go."

Except for Shi Yuntian, everyone else immediately understood the pros and cons.

"As long as we follow the route Xi Huaiji gave us and try not to expose our body temperature, we should be able to sneak into Fifth Street quickly."

Shi Yuntian had just said something foolish, and tried to make amends for it, "Cross the fifth street, and the world is halfway complete."

"Mr. Shi Yuntian," Yu Qimiao stopped him and said slowly, "That's not how the game works. Remember my pyramid theory?"

"I forgot."

Su Qiong still remembered and repeated, "According to the pyramid principle, 20% of this game accounts for 150% of the difficulty. And the 80% we experienced is just an appetizer with -50% difficulty."

So, what game is half done? This game hasn't even started yet.

After all, they entered the fourth street and still did not trigger the main quest.

An An and ERROR took some ice cubes out of the villa, lowered the temperature to confuse the zombies, and rushed across the fourth street as fast as possible.

On the way, they saw a zombie subdued by Xi Huaiji.

Xi Huaiji's attack was ruthless enough that the two high-level zombies were stunned and lay there in a mess. There was a faint light green mark in the middle of their shapeless bodies.

"ERROR, look at that." Su Jing pulled ERROR's sleeve.

ERROR looked over and skillfully put the stuff into the bottle, "I'll try it later."

Su Jing responded twice, but let go of ERROR's sleeve and stepped back.

Dirty.

ERROR glanced at him.

If it wasn't too dangerous here, he would have rubbed Su Jing's face and made him dirty.

Watching the marshmallows explode is also a kind of fun.

After crossing the fourth street, Yu Qimiao immediately received news from Xi Huaiji.

She hides in an abandoned church, which is also protected from zombies.

When Yu Qi Miao followed the direction and found Xi Huaiji, he was stunned by the miserable state of the Jijing high-level officials.

Jijing is a guild full of experts, and the members who can follow Xi Huaiji are of terrifyingly high levels.

At this moment, they were so tired that they lay on the ground in all directions, looking like they were about to die, and looked more decadent than zombies.

Xi Huaiji saw their disgust and took the initiative to explain, "Don't worry, there are no people infected by zombies here, they are just too tired."

"All right."

The members of the Orphan Alliance then felt at ease to step into the church and asked Xi Huaiji what difficulties she had encountered.

Xi Huaiji was seen through by him, but she did not avoid it. She brought a few people to the window and said, "Look at that."

They looked through the window and saw a large number of advanced zombies lined up, like a large-scale military training scene.

At the front of the team, there was a familiar-looking person chattering something.

Su Jing took a closer look before recognizing that the person was the military advisor who had helped everyone survive.

He had just become a zombie and still retained most of his human features.

"What is he doing?"

"Developing tactics for the zombies," Xi Huaiji replied. "You should have noticed, right? Most of the zombies here are players who died in the game, including tens of thousands of players whose entire team survived."

"If you become a zombie, won't you be able to think?"

"Losing the ability to think means it's easier to control." Xi Huaiji leaned against the wall, head lowered weakly. "I've discovered that the subordinate relationships before death are retained even after becoming a zombie. Total Survival is a pyramid scheme guild. They all believe the guild management will lead them out of the game, so they put their trust in them. The military advisor has tens of thousands of followers here right after he became a zombie."

Su Jian observed from a distance and found that some of the zombies had been alienated for a long time and had a higher level than when they were players.

The reason zombies are easy to deal with is that they have no brains and don't cooperate.

When they start to follow instructions and study tactics, the situation becomes uncertain.

The large number of cases and the contagiousness of the virus are already annoying enough.

"If we keep going like this, let alone leaving this circle, we won't even be able to see the main quest."

"Bah!" The Extreme Boss cursed angrily, "Those cowards from Total Survival were too scared to confront us head-on in the game before, and only dared to make small moves behind our backs. Now they've turned into zombies, thinking they have immortality, and they're so arrogant."

"Have you also been tricked by them?" Shi Yuntian felt like he had found his relatives.

"No. They tried to sow discord, but our president suppressed it." The Jijie members were very proud. "Our president is wise and powerful, unlike your president."

In his words, he mocked the fact that Yu Qi Miao was plotted against.

Su Jing: "But our president is of a higher rank."

"It's not up to him alone!"

Su Qiong: "One hundred levels higher than your guild master."

“…” The top leaders of Jijing were speechless.

One hundred levels is a very scary gap in "IF".

"This level originally belonged to Su Jing, but it fell to me because he gave up his player identity." Yu Qimiao explained lightly and asked Xi Huaiji what to do next?

The players who survived before the military advisor's command were divided into several teams and surrounded the church.

The two guilds in the church only have a dozen people combined, and it is not easy to deal with tens of thousands of tactical zombies.

Besides, using human wave tactics to deal with the enemy is what the Total Survival Strategist is good at.

When he first turned into a zombie, he was somewhat unwilling, and sincerely hated Su Jing who did not help him and his teammates who defected temporarily.

However, when he discovered that he had turned into a zombie, he still retained his ability to think because of his high level.

Moreover, there are enough former members in this circle who will go through fire and water for him as long as he gives an order, making them more useful than before.

The military advisor suddenly changed his mind.

Being a zombie is more fun than hiding as a player!

He possessed powerful abilities, and for the first time he was able to trample those big players who looked down on him under his feet, and watch them flee in panic.

What could be happier than revenge!

The military advisor was extremely inflated in his heart, and decided to take revenge one by one, starting with the arrogant President Jijing, then to all the survivors who ignored him, and finally to Su Jing who did not help him.

"Listen up!" the military advisor shouted in zombie language, "Don't let anyone go!"

Although zombies cannot speak, they have a unique way of communicating and they all expressed that they understood.

They surrounded the church from all directions, making sure there were no gaps.

The military advisor walked over triumphantly with his hands behind his back, intending to enter the church to show off his power.

As a result, he took a step forward and was suddenly touched by an unknown substance, causing him to feel a stinging pain all over his body.

Seeing this, the zombie next to him gestured to tell him: There is something in this world that will make zombies feel very uncomfortable if they touch it.

Zombies won't be disappointed, so if they don't stay away from that substance, the sting will stay with them forever.

"What is that thing?"

The veteran zombie said he didn't know, he only knew that it was created by humans.

"Ha, you deserve it!"

"You still want to come in and show off your power? You're dreaming."

"ERROR." Su Qi came to ERROR and asked him, "Aren't you going to test that thing?"

ERROR glanced at Su Jian, then looked at the piles of zombies outside, "You want me to go alone?"

"Um."

“…You’re so nice to me.”

"Thank you, it's what I should do."

ERROR glanced at him speechlessly and walked outside.

Su Jing hesitated for a moment, then followed ERROR closely, watching him take out a piece of cloth stained with light green liquid from the bottle.

"What's this?"

"This is the sample I collected from the zombie you just defeated." ERROR carefully picked up the clean part of the cloth and strode out of the church.

The military advisor was overjoyed to see that he dared to show up, and opened his mouth to say something.

ERROR took the opportunity and stuffed the cloth into his mouth.

In an instant, the military advisor showed a painful expression and rolled on the ground in pain.

He wanted to take the cloth out, but his fingers couldn't reach it and his tongue couldn't push it out. He could only roll around in great pain.

"Yes, it is this substance."

"It can actually be collected from zombies." After listening to their explanation, Xi Huaiji suddenly understood, "That makes it easy."

This place has no shortage of zombies.

"President Xi, the difficulty will only get higher from now on. How about our two guilds cooperate?"

“We haven’t always been working together.”

"This time is different." Yu Qimiao spread his hands, "You know, my props are damaged."

"Then?"

"I can't force a deal with you using tools. Therefore, I want to fight alongside your guild this time, based on mutual trust."

Before, Yu Qisui used props every time.

Although Xi Huaiji didn't say it, she felt somewhat resentful in her heart.

This time, there is no system to judge, and the basis of cooperation is based on trust.

In other words, this was the first time the two guilds had cooperated equally and fairly.

"Okay." Xi Huaiji did not put forward any conditions.

Cooperation is mutual. Not only did Yu Qimiao figure her out, but Xi Huaiji also figured out the other party.

Apart from the fact that they are both black-hearted, they are essentially the same type and unconsciously feel a sense of mutual understanding.

"Next, we have to think of a way to get rid of those people who are getting in the way."

The two presidents looked outside at the same time.

The military advisor rolled several times, banging his head against the ground, and finally got the cloth out of his mouth.

He was extremely angry and demanded that the zombies, at all costs, must turn the players inside into infected people.

"...It suddenly occurred to me that, in a sense, people wouldn't die in this world, right?" Shi Yuntian said, "Was there any point in him turning us into infected people?"

Once you become infected, you will no longer be afraid of the virus.

They are of higher rank than the military advisor, yet they still pin him to the ground.

Lu Shufan complained, "How did that guy become a military advisor? His IQ is even lower than that of President Shi."

Shi Yuntian: ...Are you praising me?

"President, there are too many of them. On average, each of us has to deal with thousands of zombies."

"There are quite a few high-level zombies among them. It's too difficult!"

"We may not be able to do it alone. But if we join forces..." Xi Huaiji looked to the side, her meaning was very clear.

Su Jing and An An walked forward in coordination, each holding a ball in their hands.

Xi Huaiji took out the rewards she got in the last round, and there were actually two of them.

"You stole the item that kept everyone alive?"

Logically speaking, there were four circle master fragments in the previous circle, and each of them left behind a ball.

The three guilds each dealt with one of the fragments. Logically, the one who reached the extreme level and had all members survived should each receive a reward.

"What are you thinking?" Xi Huaiji looked at him. "It was a mistake to entrust the task to everyone surviving. Even if all the members of their guild were combined, they couldn't deal with the Circle Master fragments. So I asked the members of Jijing to finish off the enemy and retrieve the items."

"As expected of President Xi."

"Let's do it."

The next second, the church door opened.

The military advisor was about to give an order when he saw four balls being thrown in different directions and then expanding at an alarming speed.

Before they could react, they were engulfed by ice, rocks, sand and fire, leaving them without the strength to fight back.

Xi Huaiji walked to the military advisor and stepped hard on his face with her high-heeled shoes.

"My new gadget has a limited attack range, so I can't control so many of them. Thank you for gathering them all together so I can take them all down in one fell swoop."

The military advisor wanted to say something, but he could no longer utter a human voice and was kicked away by Xi Huaiji.

Behind the scenes, the members of Extreme Realm huddled together and cried.

"President, why did you reward him?"

"I'll lie down too, the president will step on me!"

Orphan Alliance: "..."

Are you, the top leaders in the Extreme Realm, seriously ill?

Xi Huaiji dealt with the military advisor, turned around gracefully in her high heels, and walked towards the depths of the fifth street without looking back.

There are no low-level zombies left on this street, and the street has become much wider.

But most of those wandering the streets are high-level zombies, with levels exceeding three digits, and they are difficult to deal with.

Xi Huaiji gripped the golden hairpin tightly, knocked down a high-level zombie swiftly, avoided its venom attack, and then quickly got into the car parked nearby.

The car is an extended RV that can barely fit everyone.

"Come up!" Xi Huaiji said.

The players immediately got into the car and watched Xi Huaiji holding the steering wheel, starting the car, and rushing towards the high-level zombies on the street.

"President Xi, forgive me for saying something inappropriate, but you can't drive while wearing high heels."

"Oh." Xi Huaiji gave him a provocative look. "I don't have a driver's license, and I just hit a few zombies. Should I be arrested?"

"Here, no."

Fortunately, it is a game world, otherwise, with Xi Huaiji's operation, she would be able to wear the silver bracelet tomorrow.

The car had no ability to defend against zombies, but Xi Huaiji was fast enough that she rushed far away while the zombies on both sides of the road did not react.

Along the way, Su Jian observed his surroundings, trying to find the survivors of this world among the people coming and going.

The car passed by an inconspicuous courtyard and Su Jing heard a prompt.

[System: Congratulations on discovering the survivors' courtyard, where uninfected humans live.]

[Reminder: Humans who have not been infected are all original inhabitants of the magical world. Please cherish your life.]

"Stop the car!" Su Jing immediately stopped the car and shared the news he had just received with everyone.

By now, everyone knows that "please cherish your life" roughly means "you will die next."

"Should we go in and take a look?"

"Of course, it was hard to find."

"Even if they know magic, at least they won't trigger the zombie virus."

The top leaders of the two guilds reached a consensus, got out of the car, and slowly pushed open the wooden door of the survivors' courtyard.

Inside the gate was a desolate scene. The surroundings were bare and overgrown with weeds, and no buildings were visible.

Su Jian even suspected that the system was deliberately giving wrong prompts.

ERROR walked in front, stretched out his hand, and seemed to touch the air, but his palm made a pressing motion.

"As expected of the original inhabitants who can use magic, they hid themselves so well. No wonder we couldn't find them."

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard the clear voice of a little girl.

"How could you find me? What are you?"

"My name is [Beep Beep——], and I come from another world."

He gave his name, but as expected, he was silenced by the system.

It was the first time for the Extreme Realm members to see such a scene and they opened their mouths in surprise.

What did ERROR do to make the system block even his name?

"Beep, I don't know you." The little girl thought his name was Beep and called him that directly. "Why did you break into my place?"

"There's no particular reason." ERROR's attitude was very friendly and sounded quite polite.

If you don't carefully discern the deep meaning of his words -

I just went ahead and did it, why would I need to find an excuse?

Fortunately, the little girl was naive and didn't think too deeply about the meaning of the words.

Feeling that ERROR was quite friendly, he used magic to let him see his house.

The moment the magic came into contact, a warm and fairy-tale cottage appeared on the originally barren land. There was a sign at the door of the cottage with the girl's name written on it: Alice.

It's common, but it sounds really nice.

She pushed open the door and walked out slowly. She was wearing a beautiful magical princess dress and a hat, looking very dreamy.

But the magic wand in his hand is slightly inferior to Su Jing's.

"Friends from another world, welcome to Alice's cabin." Alice invited them into the room and shook her wrist. The hidden imitation took effect instantly and the surroundings became desolate again.

The zombies standing outside the yard saw a wasteland and had no idea what was going on.

Alice served them tea and dessert, then sat beside them and looked at them quietly.

Alice had been here for too long and hadn't seen a human being for a long time.

"Thank you for the black tea, it's delicious."

"You're welcome." Alice originally planned to treat them to tea and then ask them to leave.

After hearing Su Jing's praise, Alice changed her mind and decided to let them stay for a while.

"We have just arrived in this world and don't know anything. Can I ask you a few questions?"

"You want to ask why I didn't turn into a zombie, right?"

"right."

Alice showed a look of astonishment and told him, "I am the last heir of fairy magic. As you can see, my magic is very advanced. Zombies can't catch me at all."

"Fairy magic..."

"If your magic is so powerful, why are you the only heir left?"

"Because fairy magic is very picky, only fairies can learn it!" Alice raised her chin proudly, glanced around, and pointed her magic wand at Su Jian, "Among you, only you are qualified to learn fairy magic!"

"But he's a boy."

"Then you!" Alice pointed at Moi.

"She was infected with the zombie virus, but she hasn't transformed yet."

Alice was a little annoyed and pointed her magic wand at Xi Huaiji.

Xi Huaiji narrowed her eyes. The queen had a powerful aura, obviously the type that even a fairy could not control.

Lu Shufan complained, "It seems that the threshold for joining your faction isn't very high."

"Nonsense! Our faction was once very powerful, but then the witch magic next door evolved many new skills that specifically countered our fairy magic. Since then, we've gradually lost our heir." Alice clutched her magic wand, looking very melancholy. "I've searched for a long time, but I haven't found a suitable heir. Now, there are zombies everywhere, so it's probably impossible to find an heir."

"Can't your magic turn them back?
