Chapter 27 Hidden Room



"Damn it, haven't you found that old codger yet?"

"Young master, we haven't found the old geezer, but there's a guy in that office who's almost 30! It seems like there's only one person there!"

"No! There are too many zombies over there. We need at least 20 people to get in."

The room they were talking about was the one where Yin Yubing was staying.

Su Yue anticipated the Order Keepers' madness the next day; he was all too familiar with their thinking.

So last night, I first instructed Yin Yubing that she must wait until the dungeon was over before leaving.

Early in the morning, a considerable number of zombies were attracted and blocked the only way.

The survivors are now living in fear, making it difficult for them to organize a group attack.

"Young Master, one of the brothers reports that they've found Matthew on the fourth floor!"

"You old bastard, where do you think you're going? Eighth Brother, what are you standing there for? Get out of here!"

"Boss, there's no rush," Lao Ba said with a wry smile.

Lin Maorong was taken aback, not understanding what Lao Ba meant.

When they arrived at Matthew's side, they found that he had already died.

Ma Xiuwei's lips curled up slightly, as if he were mocking Lin Maorong.

Before he died, he even used all his strength to write five bloody words on the ground: Lin Maorong is an idiot!

It doesn't cause much harm, but it's extremely insulting!

Lin Maorong was instantly furious and looked around.

Apart from the zombies in the distance, I didn't see a single shadow.

Who did it?

I was just about to yell a few curses at the top of my lungs.

Old Eight and several of his subordinates pressed their hands over his mouth, forcing him to swallow his words.

If they shouted it out, what would happen?

Lin Maorong must be incredibly frustrated!

"Honey... the leaderboard is about to be updated..."

Wan Xinran reminded her that she and Miao Huanhuan were not very strong fighters.

So he volunteered, took out his notebook and pen, and recorded every change in the rankings.

"Yes! As long as we know whose points are abnormal, we'll know exactly who it is!"

"Honey, the first place is an ordinary passerby with 326 points! We're second..."

"Damn it! I lost three men yesterday, and he actually killed them?" Lin Maorong immediately realized that he had been caught red-handed.

"Young Master, what should we do now? Should we go to the Dean's office first and tell Young Master Shiraishi what he asked us to do..."

"Screw him! Let's go kill some people! I refuse to believe he can take on all of us by himself!"

Although the Lin family team was firmly in second place, Lin Maorong only wanted to kill ordinary passersby at this moment.

"Ma Xiuwei was clearly alive ten minutes ago, which means the passerby made the move during that time. We've been keeping watch on the third floor the whole time, so he definitely hasn't gone far! He must still be on the fourth floor! Spread out, use your hunting instincts, and find him for me!"

"Do as the young master says!" the eighth brother immediately ordered.

...

After seeing Ma Xiuwei off, Su Yue walked through the ceiling to the dean's office in the corner.

The equipment and supplies Matthew has given are not as good as what he gave to Yin Yubing last night.

However, he obtained the S-rank talent most suitable for archery classes—maxed-out agility.

This is the talent possessed by the first Archer God.

[Talent: Max Agility]

Talent level: S-rank.

Very fast: Each level gained will permanently increase Agility by 5 points.

In the instant he plundered the talent, Su Yue felt as light as a swallow.

The permanent 20 Agility points gained from level 1 to level 5 are credited instantly!

Agility primarily affects movement speed and attack speed.

Unlike Strength, which is linked to physical damage, and Spirit, which is linked to magical skill damage, Constitution is linked to defense.

Agility is relatively inexpensive compared to the other two attributes.

Only warrior-type thieves and archers will prioritize agility.

After all, for other professions, agility is sufficient.

For Su Yue, the plundering of the S-level talent agility boost was a significant benefit.

That's equivalent to getting 5 points of Agility for free for every level you gain.

From now on, the main point will be to add points randomly!

With his Agility maxed out, Su Yue started dreaming about the remaining amplification talents:

"Maxed Strength, Maxed Spirit, Maxed Physique, I wonder when I'll be able to collect them all?"

As he spoke, he crossed the lobby, walked along the path, and finally arrived at the door of the dean's office.

He had tried it before, but the access card didn't work, so Su Yue gave up on it.

He used both Silver Claws and Hunting Instinct to ensure there were no survivors within a 50-meter radius.

However, his perception could not penetrate deep into the Dean's office, as it was blocked by a barrier.

Su Yue immediately understood that this was a hidden room in the dungeon: "No wonder I couldn't open it, there must be a boss battle inside!"

Then, he took out an antique and exquisite key from his bracelet, an item he had obtained from the elite zombie yesterday.

[Master Key]: Excellent-grade consumable. Yokohama's lock-picking king, there's no lock he can't open! After use, it can open locks or mechanisms of grade less than Excellent.

The door lock instantly emitted a green light, flashing at the same frequency as the master key.

Su Yue inserted the key, turned it gently, and the door opened with a creak.

A void portal, resembling a blue-black vortex, appeared at the entrance.

[Ding! Hidden room opened! The "Master Key" has disappeared!]

[Countdown begins: 5! 4! 3! ...]

Su Yue took a deep breath and stepped inside.

The scene before my eyes gradually became clearer, and a scene of apocalyptic devastation instantly enveloped me!

The door behind me slammed shut with a bang!

It was unusually quiet inside.

Apart from the load-bearing columns and load-bearing walls, not a single intact wall can be found.

The doors, windows, brick walls, and ceilings were completely destroyed.

The air was thick with a suffocating atmosphere.

The smells of blood, rotting flesh, and burnt flesh mingled together.

A gust of wind blew by, and the smell rushed straight to the top of my head!

Everywhere you look, there are severed limbs, tissues, and organs.

There are both humans and zombies.

The entire room, a full 200 square meters, is scattered in every corner.

Without exception, not one of them was intact.

Their pained and fearful expressions revealed their struggle and despair at the time.

It seems that a meeting must have been taking place here when the apocalypse came.

Judging from their attire, there were nearly a hundred people, including doctors, nurses, and some outsiders.

The once-red carpet had been stained black with blood.

In some places, the debris even accumulated into small, scattered puddles.

Brain matter, organs, and eyeballs were scattered all over the ground.

It's even sticky when you step on it.

Such a hell on earth, a coward would probably explode if he looked at it for even a second.

But for Su Yue, eating and sleeping amidst mountains of corpses and seas of blood during the ten years of the apocalypse was the norm.

Clearly, this was not something that mutated zombies could have done.

With the help of the silver bird claws, Su Yue finally saw a clue from the crack in the farthest broken wall.

There, a soft voice drifted over: "Another day full of energy!"
