Zhang Tao said in a low voice, "Songke University is so big, it is indeed not easy to find. But do you think the student affairs office has student files?"
Yuan Chu's eyes lit up and he said, "That's a good idea. I can go to the student affairs office to check first, and then I'll leave these foods for you as a token of my gratitude."
He handed the whole bag of food to Zhang Tao, but just as Zhang Tao reached out to take the bag...
A small hand slapped away Zhang Tao's outstretched hand even faster, and Zhang Tao looked at Song Qian in confusion.
Song Qian ignored him and instead looked at Yuan Chu and said, "Brother Yuan, let us take you there. You don't seem to know the campus well."
"By showing you the way, you can avoid some detours, which is equivalent to saving time."
Yuan Chuyi immediately agreed, "That's great, let's set off now."
Yuan Chuyi then handed a backpack full of food to the others and asked Zhang Tao and Song Qian to leave the fire axe and dagger to everyone.
Inside the campus, Zhang Tao held the exquisite boning knife that Yuan Chuyi had given him and said, "Brother Yuan, this knife you gave me is really sharp. I don't even need to use much force to cut down zombies. But it just doesn't give me the same sense of security as holding a fire axe."
After Yuan Chuyi used the Sea Soul Halberd to kill four or five zombies in front of him, he said, "Although the fire axe looks more powerful than the boning knife in your hand."
However, you should know that you are a strength-based ability user, and using a boning knife that is much lighter and sharper than a fire axe is the key to your continued combat.
If you use a fire axe to kill ten or eight zombies, you might not feel the difference, but what if you were asked to kill a hundred or a thousand?
Even if the zombies stand still, the weight of the fire axe will drag you down. You won't even be able to kill a hundred zombies before your arm becomes too heavy to lift.
Song Qian chimed in, "You don't believe me when I tell you all you know is brute force. Why don't you take this opportunity to learn from Brother Yuan?"
Zhang Tao echoed, "I still have a lot to learn from Brother Yuan. Brother Yuan, you can rest for a while. We'll be there soon after we get past this dormitory building. I'll take care of these two or three."
Song Qian looked at Zhang Tao, who had already walked around the dormitory building, and said, "What are you standing there like an idiot looking at?"
When the two followed Zhang Tao's gaze, they saw a dense mass of zombies appearing in the middle of the road a hundred meters away.
Immediately, Song Qian's legs trembled as she said, "Zhang Tao, is there any other way to get around to the office building?"
Zhang Tao thought for a moment and said, "There's another path, but I reckon there might be even more zombies there. Do you see the canteen behind the zombie horde?"
Song Qian immediately understood what he meant and said, "Brother Yuan, this is the only way through now. Why don't we lure the zombies away little by little, and you take the opportunity to rush over? The eight-story building behind the cafeteria is the office building."
Yuan Chuyi said, "How long will it take you two or three to lead them away?"
"Wait for me a moment, let me think of something."
Then Yuan Chuyi entered the system and checked his level of 24.
So he decided to materialize a skill that could cause widespread damage.
Ding-dong!
Fire Wall spell, successfully materialized!
After Yuan Chuyi logged out of the system, he said to the two of them, "Don't follow me. Be careful here and watch my hand gestures."
As soon as they finished speaking, the two watched as Yuan Chuyi rushed over at an extremely fast speed, just a few meters away from the horde of zombies.
Yuan Chu wielded the Sea Soul Halberd from right to left and swung it forcefully forward. A five-meter-wide beam of fire surged forward in a semi-circular shape.
The flames only gradually disappeared when they reached within fifteen or sixteen meters of the zombie horde, and even Yuan Chuyi himself was somewhat shocked by the effectiveness of this skill.
According to Yuan Chuyi's initial estimate, the skill's firelight killed at least seventy or eighty zombies, with only a few level one zombies missing limbs remaining in the center.
Immediately afterward, Yuan Chu raised his hand and several bolts of lightning accurately struck the level one zombies that were already on the verge of death. Then, he swung the Sea Soul Halberd and began to slaughter the zombies that surrounded him.
Two minutes later, Yuan Chuyi once again used the Fire Wall spell on the densely packed area of zombies, and immediately a large number of zombies burned and fell to the ground.
As Yuan Chuyi continuously swung his Sea Soul Halberd, coupled with the precise lightning strikes that killed level one zombies, and the Fire Wall spell cast every two minutes, he continued to unleash his power.
In just over 20 minutes, almost all of the more than a thousand zombies had been killed.
The two men, who had witnessed everything from afar, once again resolved to keep up with this powerful man.
At Yuan Chuyi's signal, the two quickly ran towards her. To Yuan Chuyi's surprise, the two did not keep asking her questions as she had expected.
Instead, they became quiet and reserved. Yuan Chuyi didn't dwell too much on their state, but instead quickly cleared away the scattered zombies.
Looking at the teachers who had been rescued, Yuan Chuyi asked from the office building, "Which of you is in charge of the new student files?"
At that moment, a bald middle-aged man tidied his sparse hair with his hands and came out.
He coughed twice and then said, "Young comrade, may I ask your name?"
Yuan Chuyi looked at the middle-aged man and, suppressing her anger, said, "Yuan Chuyi."
The middle-aged man said "Oh" and then asked, "What business do you have with this Shangguan Wan'er? And who are you to her?"
Yuan Chuyi didn't want to waste any more words with this kind of person, so after glancing at his watch, he pulled over a table and took out three steaming trays of buns from his spatial storage.
He said to Song Qian and Zhang Tao, "Come on, sit down and eat with us."
Seeing Yuan Chuyi devouring steamed buns and the two students sitting next to him, the teachers, who had been starving for days due to food shortages, started snoring loudly the moment they saw the buns.
Just as the middle-aged man walked over and was about to speak, Yuan Chuyi said, "Shut up. I get annoyed just hearing the tone of your voice."
Then he pointed at the people in the room and cursed, "You bunch of idiots, you call yourselves highly educated intellectuals? Don't you even know what's going on outside?"
Are you still playing bureaucratic games now? If I'm not mistaken, this bald guy must be the highest-ranking official among you.
Judging from his appearance, he must have arrived with the supplies first. Yuan Chuyi pointed at the group and said, "Look at you all, so pale and thin."
They're about to lose their lives, and they're still clinging to power. I'll say it again: who knows, if I find the freshmen's school records, they can sit down and eat steamed buns.
"I'll help you find it!" A woman in her thirties walked to a computer and began typing. A moment later, she approached Yuan Chuyi and said:
"Shangguan Wan'er is 19 years old, majoring in mechanical engineering, and currently lives in room 411 of dormitory building 17."
No sooner had she finished speaking than the middle-aged man roared, "Yang Jie, what's wrong with you? How can you just tell others about students' files like that?"
Do you have any sense of organizational discipline at all? I think you shouldn't even bother applying for your professional title this year.
Upon hearing the middle-aged man still speaking in Mandarin, Yuan Chuyi said, "Go and kill him."
Zhang Tao and Song Qian, who were still eating steamed buns, were stunned for a moment. Zhang Tao said, "Brother Yuan, do you mean to kill Director Qin?" He pointed at the middle-aged man as he spoke.
When he looked in the direction of the finger, he saw an ice needle already embedded in the man's heart.
