Chapter 91: "Return" to School
After the mission was over, Ye Xuan and Xia Chenxi had to resume their morning training at the training ground.
When Ye Xuan got up to wash up, he found that his mission reward had arrived in his account at midnight yesterday.
In addition to virtual funds and battle points, he was also promised that he could make any requests within the capabilities of the base as an additional reward for his outstanding performance in the mission.
Ye Xuan asked Xia Chenxi if he had any extra rewards, and Xia Chenxi said no.
"You must be the only one who has it."
Is that so.
Ye Xuan was in mixed feelings and said nothing more.
After breakfast, they went to the training ground, and Ye Xuan and Xia Chenxi parted in front of Venue A.
Yesterday’s mission seemed like a dream, and his current training routine was his normal life. Ye Xuan used his hands to support the corners of his mouth and forced himself to smile.
As soon as he entered the stadium, his teammates surrounded him and chattered around him.
As enthusiastic as ever.
"Okay, everyone go to training, don't harass Ye Xuan alone." Luo Feng asked the team members to stop surrounding Ye Xuan, "Ye Xuan, come with me."
"Yes." Although he didn't know what Luo Feng was going to say to him, Ye Xuan followed immediately. Finally, he didn't have to be surrounded by everyone. The team members were too enthusiastic and he really couldn't handle it.
Luo Feng took Ye Xuan outside the stadium, took out a cigarette from his pocket, lit it, and put it to his lips, "How was this mission, did you gain anything?"
There was nothing to gain, he lost a brother who was very important to the base.
Luo Feng took a deep breath and exhaled a puff of smoke, "Ye Xuan, some things should be put aside, and continue to train well from now on."
Ye Xuan looked at Luo Feng and asked, "Brother Feng, have you known for a long time that the corpse king is my brother?"
Luo Feng smoked silently without saying a word. His eyes were always fixed on one place and he never looked at Ye Xuan.
After finishing a cigarette, he put it out, patted Ye Xuan on the shoulder and walked into the venue.
Ye Xuan clenched his fists and murmured, "I know."
Training continues as usual.
In the afternoon, Ye Xuan went to the central venue and as expected, he met Xia Chenxi on the way.
"Today, continue?" Xia Chenxi meant to continue the actual combat simulation with him.
"good."
Ye Xuan nodded.
Xia Chenxi saw that Ye Xuan was in a low mood and asked him what was wrong?
"My head is full of things right now. It's like it's been cut into many pieces and pieced together messily, which makes me confused."
Xia Chenxi rubbed Ye Xuan's head and said, "Don't think about it. Let it go and maybe you will find the answer."
Ye Xuan sighed and nodded.
They entered the room one by one, put on their equipment, and entered the virtual world.
Ye Xuan clicked on the actual combat simulation.
The scene changed and gradually appeared in front of him, and Ye Xuan opened his eyes wide.
The location of this actual combat simulation is their school.
The weather was very good, with gentle breeze and sunny weather, and the sun shone warmly on everyone. In the huge school, a group of students who had just finished class poured out of the classroom. They were carrying bags, some were walking arm in arm, and some were walking in a hurry.
It was just an ordinary day, exactly the same as the days when Ye Xuan went to school before.
Then, someone suddenly ran out of the library screaming, and those who didn't know the truth looked up.
"what happens."
"have no idea."
The people who ran out looked terrified and shouted, "Someone is crazy and biting people in there. Run!"
Those who reacted quickly threw their bags down and ran away, while those who reacted slowly were still laughing, thinking that the group of people shouting were joking.
"I thought we were in a sitcom, and I bit people randomly."
It was not until a monster with blood all over its mouth and body ran out that the group screamed madly and ran away.
Ye Xuan stood in place and was bumped around by people.
He understood, he was experiencing what happened that day.
In this great escape, he was an outsider, and on this past day, he was a tragic insider.
A familiar person appeared in Ye Xuan's eyes.
It’s Xia Chenxi.
He ran down the stairs quickly, and the monsters behind him made him dare not look back.
Ye Xuan restrained his urge to rush over to save Xia Chenxi. This was a virtual world, and what was supposed to happen had already happened.
Even if he saves her, nothing will change in reality.
He wanted to know more about what Xia Chenxi had experienced that day and how the teeth marks on his foot came about.
Just as Xia Chenxi was about to run down the stairs, the man next to him stretched out his leg and hooked him, causing Xia Chenxi to roll down the stairs. The zombie that was about to pounce on that man turned its target to Xia Chenxi and bit his ankle.
It turned out that he was murdered. Xia Chenxi would not have been bitten.
But if I hadn't been bitten, nothing that happened afterwards would have happened.
He and Xia Chenxi will not be together either.
Should he hate the person who harmed Xia Chenxi, or be glad that Xia Chenxi was bitten?
This is a question without an answer.
Xia Chenxi kicked the zombie away with his other foot. Without even checking his wound, he stood up and ran towards the dormitory.
Everything around was still, and a system message popped up.
[Xia Chenxi applies to enter your virtual world.] 】
Ye Xuan clicked to agree, and Xia Chenxi slowly appeared beside him.
Seeing his own running figure, Xia Chenxi guessed that Ye Xuan had seen what happened with his own eyes.
"I didn't mean to go back and hurt you." Xia Chenxi held Ye Xuan's hand tightly, "I was afraid that you would be alone in the dormitory and run out out of curiosity without knowing what was happening outside."
"At that time, I just wanted to go back to the dormitory, make sure you were safe, and then protect you."
Xia Chenxi's explanation sounded like a sophistry, but Ye Xuan knew that Xia Chenxi was telling the truth.
"But thinking about your attitude towards me at that time, I thought you regarded me as an enemy." Ye Xuan smiled lightly.
"I don't know how to get along with you. What would you think if I revealed my feelings to you at that time?"
"I would have thought you had a virus attacking your brain."
The two of them burst out laughing.
Amid the passing crowd, the two of them standing still seemed like out of place.
"Hey, what are you still standing there for? Run!" someone shouted at them.
Ye Xuan grabbed Xia Chenxi's hand and started running wildly.
"What do you think my reaction would be if we go back to the dormitory now?" Ye Xuan asked Xia Chenxi.
"You'll stand there confused like an idiot." Xia Chenxi said to Ye Xuan.
"Okay, I was just an idiot in your eyes that day, right?"
Xia Chenxi remained silent.
Ye Xuan really wanted to try to run to the dormitory, but halfway through, he and Xia Chenxi were kicked into another simulated space.
The reason given by the system is that the virtual character conflicts with the real character, which will cause system data errors.
Bad system.
He and Xia Chenxi were kicked to the suburbs, where there were few people and zombies were elusive.
This also makes it more difficult for them to kill zombies, because they don't know when the zombies will suddenly appear.
Ye Xuan and Xia Chenxi stood back to back, one looking after the front and the other looking after the back, cooperating with each other, and trained in the virtual world for an entire afternoon.
After the training, Ye Xuan took off his equipment and went to the hall to find Xia Chenxi.
Seeing Xia Chenxi, Ye Xuan held his hand and said to him: "Let's go and meet my parents."
This statement has a different meaning.
Xia Chenxi couldn't help but start to get nervous, as this was the first time he met Ye Xuan's parents after he and Ye Xuan confirmed their relationship.
