Chapter 377

The door of the classroom was just an ordinary wooden door with limited defense. After being constantly hit by the zombies, it began to shake.

Everyone knew that if they continued to stay here, they would only become delicacy in the mouths of zombies, but for a moment, no one knew where to go.

At this time, Lin Qingqiu's identity as a teacher became a natural attraction, and many people looked at Lin Qingqiu at the same time, hoping that he could make a decision.

Lin Qingqiu thought for a moment and said, "Staying here is a dead end. But I've just arrived at the school and am not familiar with the surroundings. Why not find someone to give me a brief introduction so that I don't make the wrong judgment?"

He said this, but his eyes were looking straight in Cheng Hui's direction.

Cheng Hui: ...

Well, it seems that Lin Qingqiu didn't learn anything else when he came to this world, but he learned the unspoken rules clearly.

Since people have said so, how can he not go?

——Although he is happy to do so.

Cheng Hui pinched his nose. There were about seventy students still alive in the entire classroom. Except for the unlucky one who was bitten at the beginning, the rest...

Um?

He noticed that among the anxious crowd, there were a few people who were in a daze.

Their expressions were dull, their pupils were dilated, and the color in their faces was gradually disappearing.

not good!

They're turning into zombies!

"Everyone get out of the way!" Cheng Hui immediately rushed over and pulled those people out of the crowd.

"Ah!" One of the girls was still conscious. She was thrown by Cheng Hui into the corner where the zombies were trapped before, and she immediately let out a cry of pain.

"What are you doing?" a boy shouted, ran to the female classmate and carefully helped her up.

"Leave quickly." Cheng Hui had no time to explain and was busy throwing the remaining people out of the crowd.

The boy helped his sweetheart up. Seeing that she lowered her head and didn't say anything, he immediately felt that she must have been hurt by Cheng Hui's behavior. He shouted at Cheng Hui angrily: "Why did you touch her? Can't you just say it nicely?"

"roar!"

"ah!"

The boy turned his head with bloodshot eyes, and saw that the usually well-behaved girl had red and white eyes, and her teeth were biting his arm fiercely.

"ah!!!"

Screams broke out again in the classroom.

Cheng Hui closed his eyes tightly.

It’s too fast, the zombies transform too fast.

Even though he had tried his best to throw out those who were discovered and showed signs of transformation, many people still fell into the trap.

People bitten by zombies have different transformation times depending on their physical fitness. On the contrary, those zombies that are directly transformed for some reason at the beginning transform very quickly - so fast that people can't react.

Seeing the group of students shouting and dodging in panic, Cheng Hui was also a little annoyed.

The threat posed by a newly transformed zombie is limited. To put it bluntly, finding something to plug his mouth can minimize his threat.

Among the more than seventy people present, seven were transformed into zombies, and three of them were discovered and thrown out by Cheng Hui in advance, resulting in the current situation.

Everyone was dodging, but they were forced to climb up the wall by the four stumbling zombies...

Yes, no one has ever experienced this, but that thing is about to bite you, what's the point of just hiding? Find something to block it?

At worst, can't you just kick him in the chest?

Cheng Hui knew very well that he was no longer the Nascent Soul cultivator who could move mountains and seas with a wave of his hand, but just an ordinary person with a relatively strong body.

He is not Superman, so it is impossible for him to save everyone.

These people's performance was really terrible. If things continued like this, he doubted how many people in this room would survive.

He sighed silently and kicked away a ferocious-looking zombie, saving a boy.

The boy thanked her in shock, but then he screamed in fear at the tragic scene not far away.

Cheng Hui: ...

Although he was still complaining in his heart, Cheng Hui's hands were not slowing down.

It took more than half an hour to finally rescue all the people.

It’s not right to say that he was rescued, at most he was controlled.

Now, the entire classroom was divided into three parts. One part was filled with panicked students with tear marks on their faces, and the other part was filled with zombies killed by Cheng Hui and several brave boys and girls using various "homemade weapons".

Caught in the middle are those students who have been bitten by zombies but have not yet completely turned into zombies.

Among them, the number of students who were scared half to death was the largest, about thirty people, and there were only about twenty students who completely turned into zombies.

There were only a dozen or so students left who had not yet been converted. They sat on the floor in the middle of the classroom with despair on their faces, waiting for their final fate to come.

There was an incident before where a girl concealed the fact that she was bitten, and her best friend and secret admirer tacitly helped her to hide it. The end result was that the girl, her best friend and secret admirer were all lying next to the zombie corpses.

Since then, no one has done such a stupid thing again.

After all, love is precious, but life is more precious. At least for these students, they have not yet encountered the kind of love that makes them willing to give up their lives to persist in it.

"We can't go on like this." Cheng Hui whispered to Lin Qingqiu.

Cheng Hui looked at the depressed students around him and shook his head secretly.

Staying here would mean waiting for death. The corridor was very narrow and the space in the classroom was limited. The door of the classroom could only temporarily block the zombies. Even though he had some men stab some of them to death with tools, as long as there were people here, there would be a steady stream of zombies surrounding him.

"I don't know the situation here. What do you want to do? I'll cooperate with you."

Cheng Hui nodded.

He turned to the students and said, "We can't stay here any longer. There are so many of us. Eating, drinking, defecating, and urinating are all problems. So, we have to leave."

"Leave? Where to?" someone asked in confusion.

"Let's go to the cafeteria!" Cheng Hui said decisively. "There's plenty of space there, and they can even store a fair amount of food. When something like this happens, the country will definitely send aid. As you can see, the zombie outbreak came without warning, and the army must have been affected. Once they've cleared the army of zombies, they'll definitely come to rescue us."

"Really?" a girl asked softly, "Will someone really come to save us?"

"Of course!" Cheng Hui replied firmly: "We must believe in the country."

In his dream, the country did provide various rescue efforts.

If he remembered correctly, from the third day onwards, various teams began to enter the edge of the city to start rescue. Their university was located on the edge of the city. If nothing unexpected happened, even if they were unlucky, they would at least be able to wait for the rescuers on the fourth day.

This accident...

Thinking of those troublemakers, Cheng Hui felt his fists stiffen.

Because of the peculiarities of the Phantom Tree, every intelligent creature is the absolute protagonist in its own illusion. This is also the reason why some people become addicted to illusions and don't want to leave.

Because they had accidentally entered Cheng Hui's fantasy world, they could at least enjoy this kind of treatment. It was like the protagonist in a novel, blessed with good fortune. They couldn't say that their wishes came true, but generally speaking, they were able to fulfill them.

If they have conscience and bottom line, Cheng Hui would not mind letting them continue to enjoy the treatment of the protagonist in his own fantasy world.

After all, the world is so big, and no matter how destined the protagonist is, he or she has a range of activities. It’s not a big deal to enjoy life in his or her own small area, right?

But the question is... you can enjoy your life, but why do you have to go against the country?

What's the matter? One base isn't enough for you anymore? Each of them is either acting like an emperor or a queen. If you have some talent, you can be a success, but look at the bases they control and the terrible things they've done. Cheng Hui feels that letting them live is a pollution to the world!

Cheng Hui let out a long sigh and temporarily suppressed the irritation in his heart. Things had to be done bit by bit. Now was not the time to consider those troublemakers. He had to deal with these students first.

"Alright." He clapped his hands, attracting everyone's attention. "Everyone, look around and see if there's anything that can be used as a weapon. Get ready. Now everyone, get some rest. In an hour, they'll set off for the cafeteria."

"Are you leaving? What about us?" a boy who was bitten asked tremblingly.

Cheng Hui glanced at him and said, "It will depend on you whether you can go with us in an hour."

The boy pursed his lips. He knew that if he hadn't turned into a zombie after an hour, he could leave with the others. If he turned into a zombie, then everything would be over.

Some of those who were bitten couldn't help but cry. The feeling of waiting to die was really too desperate.

Cheng Hui had no other options. Even in his dreams, he hadn't heard anything about vaccines. In other words, if you were bitten by a zombie, you basically had to rely on luck.

If you are lucky, you will awaken and become a superpower. If you are unlucky... you will be like those corpses lying on the ground.

Everyone at the scene fell silent again because of this conversation, and some people began to look for weapons.

There were only a limited number of things that could be used, such as mop handles and stool legs. Even the air conditioner casing was taken apart by a clever student and wrapped around himself as armor.

An hour later, there were only three bitten victims left alive: one boy and two girls. Their cheeks were red and their bodies were shaky, but they showed no signs of turning into zombies.

A brave boy came over and touched the boy's face, and said in surprise: "It's very hot... uh... they seem to have a fever?"

This change immediately attracted the attention of others. Just as Cheng Hui was considering how to reveal the news about the superpowered people, a boy suddenly said, "Could they have awakened and evolved like in the novels?"

Cheng Hui: ...Okay, someone solved the problem for me.

As soon as these words were spoken, they immediately caused a lot of discussion. No matter whether they were boys or girls, who wouldn't want to have some cool superpowers at this time?

Apart from anything else, at least with superpowers in hand, the chances of survival are much greater, and... with online novels being so popular these days, when something big changes, maybe someone will think that they are also the destined protagonist or something.

For a moment, everyone paid attention to these three people.

Cheng Hui didn't really care. No matter how powerful the superpower was, it would only be so powerful at the beginning. Forget about competing with a gun, even a kitchen knife might not be able to defeat it.

The three men were not in good condition now, but Cheng Hui didn't plan to wait any longer.

He saw from the window that zombies came out of the corridor one after another and wandered on the playground. They had to pass by the playground from the teaching building to the cafeteria. If they stayed there, there would be more and more zombies and they would not be able to leave even if they wanted to.

"I'll go first, and you stay behind." Cheng Hui said to Lin Qingqiu.

Lin Qingqiu said he understood, and the two of them, one in front and one behind, rushed out of the classroom with the remaining thirty or so people.

Cheng Hui was holding an axe in his hand. They were lucky because there was a fire hydrant at the door of the classroom. Cheng Hui had taken advantage of the fact that there were not many zombies in the corridor and ran out to bring back the axe.

Cheng Hui walked in front. With his ability, zombies would basically have no way back once they encountered him.

Behind him were four or five boys holding long sticks. These sticks were made by tying table legs with clothes. Their only function was to push away excessive numbers of zombies.

Cheng Hui was alone, after all. Even though the corridor was narrow, a group of three, seven, or eight people could still do it. If it were just a fight, Cheng Hui wouldn't be afraid. But zombies were a dead end if they bit him, so he had to be extra careful.

Once there were more zombies in front of him, he would ask people to push away the zombies on both sides, and wait until he had dealt with the zombies in front of him before dealing with the ones around him.

So far, the effect is good, at least no zombie can get close to them.

The team behind was huddled tightly together, with the girls in the middle and the boys on the outside.

It’s not like there aren’t some shameless losers who insist on squeezing together with girls. Cheng Hui just took a look at them and stopped paying attention.

His goal was to get these people to the cafeteria, where they had food, drinks, and enough space to last until rescue. He and Lin Qingqiu were going to return to the house he rented in the community.

With Cheng Hui's axe clearing the way, the group safely reached the main door on the first floor from the third floor. On the way, they also rescued two students who were lucky enough to escape. They killed all the remaining zombies in the corridor and trapped them in the classroom. Cheng Hui found some things to prop up the door shut to ensure that they could not escape.

Seeing the zombies staggering on the playground through the gate, many students were so scared that their legs went weak. Before, Cheng Hui and others were blocking the way, so they did not have the chance to see the zombies with their own eyes. Seeing the number of zombies increasing, many people couldn't help crying, thinking that there was no way they could walk to the cafeteria alive.

"Shut up!" Cheng Hui was angry.

You are timid and dare not kill zombies, but Cheng Hui tolerates it. A normal person may need some time to adapt to such a thing.

But you know that zombies are sensitive to sound, but you are still crying so loudly at this time. Are you afraid that the zombies don’t know you are here or what?

If you want to die, go find a place to cry and don’t drag others down with you!

Immediately, someone covered the hands of those who were crying, and others glared at them.

However... it was too late.

The nearby zombies heard the noise and started running towards this side...
