Chapter 27 Changing Weapons
Because the lights in the corridor were not turned off, Yang Luoliu saw the note that Ye Yiyi had posted on the fence when he opened the door. The note was written in very large letters, as if she was afraid that Yang Luoliu would not see it, and it was posted straight and neatly.
Yang Luoliu didn't even need to get close to see the words above.
[There's food heating up downstairs. If you're hungry, go eat. You still have teammates! ]
Seeing that the last sentence emphasized the advantages of teammates, Yang Luoliu's eyes were dark and unclear, making it difficult to tell what he was thinking. He stepped forward, took the note, and walked towards the kitchen.
Seeing the hot rice in the pot and the dishes that Ye Yiyi had thoughtfully packed in the thermos, Yang Luoliu's emotions split without any warning.
Reason tells me that Ye Yiyi is just showing concern and there is no conspiracy, but resentment pulls at my thoughts, telling me that this is a conspiracy. Hasn't the lesson learned in my previous life been enough? Don't forget that you don't know her purpose yet.
This pulling made Yang Luoliu a little unsteady, and she had to support herself with her hands on the kitchen counter.
Perhaps it was too painful, Yang Luoliu's hands that were supporting the table gradually clenched, until he broke a corner of the marble table, and the sound brought him back to his senses.
Looking at the marble fragments remaining in his hand, Yang Luoliu's eyes turned bloodshot, and he indifferently threw the fragments into the kitchen trash can.
Only then did he eat up all the food left by Ye Yiyi with bloodshot eyes.
The food that entered his mouth had a familiar taste to Yang Luoliu. It was delicious and unexpectedly to his liking. Yang Luoliu could feel his resentment slowly fading away.
After his expression gradually cleared up, Yang Luoliu looked up at the direction where Ye Yiyi was sleeping, and his deep black pupils didn't know what he was thinking.
At this moment, the system floating in the air doing nothing suddenly received a wave of resentment.
When you swipe the screen, you will see a prompt that your resentment has been reduced by 20.
The system people were dumbfounded. No, how could it descend by itself when there was no one around?
Looking at Ye Yiyi who was sleeping soundly, the system couldn't bear to wake her up.
Before today, Ye Yiyi had actually always slept uneasily, and would be woken up after sleeping for an hour or two. The system knew that she was having a nightmare again without her saying anything.
She finally got a good sleep at noon and at night today, so the system did not disturb her but floated away on its own.
Looking at the light coming from the kitchen downstairs, the system seemed to know what was going on, and then it had no intention of going down to check.
After all, the world is full of dangers. Even though this small villa looks safe, it is just a visual illusion. A random second-level zombie can easily climb up to the second floor and break the glass and the guardrails outside with his bare hands.
Yang Luoliu downstairs finished the meal left by Ye Yiyi with mixed feelings, washed the dishes, and went upstairs to sleep.
Although Yang Luoliu was used to sleeping only one or two hours a day or not sleeping at all, he would still have a good rest when he was sure there was no danger around.
After all, superpowers only improve physical fitness. After all, we are human beings, not gods. If we don’t rest all the time, our bodies will not be able to bear it.
Although the small villa is not cozy, it is a rare shelter.
The outside world is in great chaos. The bases built by human survivors are either destroyed or fought over.
Or maybe they are people who finally can't stand this world anymore and commit suicide in despair.
Although the government quickly integrated its forces to carry out rescue operations, it could not prevent the above incidents from happening.
It’s really not the government’s fault.
Because the zombie outbreak came without any warning, it was not a single outbreak point, but happened simultaneously all over the world.
This disaster is of the level of world destruction.
Not to mention the network and communications that were destroyed due to the end of the world, those arrogant people took advantage of their supernatural powers and started to do whatever they wanted, causing many people to commit suicide in despair before they could be rescued.
The rescue operation was therefore very passive, but the government soldiers did not give up.
No matter how difficult it is, they gradually begin to roam around the city.
However, none of this was known to the two people who were sleeping.
After all, she came here for a mission. Although she killed zombies now, it was only because she had no choice. Moreover, she knew that she would have no memory of this world after completing the mission, so she would not care about things that were not related to her mission.
The other one was betrayed before the restart and was completely broken. It was a blessing that she didn't let the resentment overwhelm her and go on a killing spree. Instead of paying attention to others, she might as well kill a few more zombies to improve her own strength. She still had her own things to do.
Early the next morning.
As soon as Ye Yiyi got up, the system informed her that she had completed the task of eliminating Yang Luoliu's resentment. Before Ye Yiyi could be happy, she met Yang Luoliu's icy face and could no longer be happy.
Especially what she said, Ye Yiyi wanted to hit her on the forehead with the baseball bat in her hand.
"Get up and cook, then come out with me later."
After saying this, Yang Luoliu sat on the sofa without changing his expression and didn't move at all.
Ye Yiyi was almost furious seeing Yang Luoliu waiting for food so calmly.
"No, I'm going to fight zombies when I get out, too. Why can't you cook one meal and I cook the other?"
Yang Luoliu did not respond to Ye Yiyi's words, but just looked at her coldly.
"If you don't want to, go away."
Ye Yiyi almost gritted her teeth at the sight of Yang Luoliu like this. This man seemed to know that he couldn't leave her and started to act recklessly.
Finally, he glared at her fiercely.
"Forget it, just go ahead and waste your time. When I don't want to do this mission anymore, just wait."
"For the money, endure."
I felt better after thinking about it, but the ping-pong noise while cooking in the kitchen let Yang Luoliu know that she was very angry.
Yang Luoliu didn't take Ye Yiyi's childish behavior to heart at all, but was thinking about where to find the second-level zombies later.
The third-level zombies have not yet formed. Although the second-level zombies have formed, they are difficult to find as long as they don't want to appear. After all, upgrading with white crystal is too slow.
Ye Yiyi took out all the frozen meat and cooked it.
Those frozen meats have been in the refrigerator for some time. I originally stocked up a lot because I knew that Yang Luoliu would leave in about a year.
Now that I know that Yang Luoliu has her memories, I don’t know when she will leave. I can’t take these things with me, and it would be a waste if I don’t eat them now.
The weather in November is getting colder, but fortunately it hasn't snowed yet.
In the second half of the month, the two of them went out early and came back late. Ye Yiyi went from being scared at the beginning to being calm and at ease later.
Apart from anything else, my physical strength has increased dramatically.
As for nightmares? That's impossible. Ye Yiyi has seen so many shocks and disgusts every day that she can even eat in front of zombies, not to mention the shock Yang Luoliu gave her that time.
If Ye Yiyi didn't know that the system could erase this memory after she returned, she would have been afraid that she would appear abnormal if she returned to the normal world.
It's another rare warm day in winter.
Ye Yiyi killed the oncoming zombie with a stick, smashing its brain to reveal the white crystal core inside. Now Ye Yiyi can pick up the crystal core from the yellow and green slime with an expressionless face.
Ye Yiyi had almost eliminated all the zombies upstairs and finally breathed a sigh of relief and sat on the wooden box.
After coming out, Yang Luoliu usually didn't stay with him, and also gave him a task to collect one hundred crystal cores.
Ye Yiyi, who wanted to be lazy, collected the information with a curse and didn't want to care about Yang Luoliu several times, but she had to endure it under the system's repeated attacks of asking her to endure and increasing the price.
Although the baseball bat is very useful, it is not a sharp weapon after all, and Ye Yiyi found that the zombies were becoming more and more difficult to fight.
I used to be able to hit someone in the head with one stick, but now sometimes I have to hit them several times.
As for why a gun was not used, it was because although Yang Luoliu was not with Ye Yiyi, he would sometimes appear suddenly.
In order not to expose herself, Ye Yiyi could only be beaten with a stick obediently and bitterly.
Looking at the fifty crystal cores she had collected, Ye Yiyi's hands were so sore that she didn't want to pick them up at all. She sat on the box and didn't want to move.
The system saw Ye Yiyi speak like this.
"Host, I have some knives here. Do you want them?"
He slowly swallowed the rest of the words under Ye Yiyi's murderous gaze.
I have to say that over the past month, Ye Yiyi's eyes have gradually become more fierce, but because her face is so cute, people easily overlook it.
"What did you say?"
The system was just frightened and didn't take it seriously. It placed cold weapons in front of Ye Yiyi.
Looking at the cold weapons on it, which were obviously much more useful than the ones she had, Ye Yiyi looked at the system with a smile on her face.
"You and Yang Luoliu are colluding to mess with me, right? My hands are numb from hitting them with baseball bats these past two weeks, and you told me you have this kind of cold weapon?"
The system was also confused after hearing Ye Yiyi's words. "Host, you didn't ask?"
Ye Yiyi's heart choked. Although Yang Luoliu's resentment had not subsided recently, nothing could make her so heartbroken.
"I don't know what you have. I thought you only had guns and ammunition besides this modern baseball bat I have."
The system scratched its head.
"No, I can actually use energy to make anything that doesn't go into my mouth."
After thinking for a while, he spoke again.
"But you only asked for a baseball bat, and I thought you were good with it, so I didn't think much of it."
After hearing this, Ye Yiyi wanted to pry open the system's brain to see what was inside.
"No, if I took out a long knife or a long sword at that time, would you think it was reasonable? Wouldn't Yang Luoliu's sesame-filled glutinous rice balls be suspicious of me?"
The system thought about it and coughed guiltily.
"Aren't there so many now? Host, don't worry about these small details. Which one do you want?"
Knowing that the system is unreliable, Ye Yiyi has become indifferent and is too lazy to care about such things.
Looking at the various cold weapons floating in the air, I originally wanted to choose a sword, after all, it was cool, but I was stopped by the system.
"Host, the sword you can hold is relatively soft. The sword with a hard blade is too hard for you to hold with one hand. Why not try a knife? You can hold it with both hands."
Ye Yiyi thought so too, and after listening to people's advice to eat a full meal, Ye Yiyi turned her attention to the three knives.
I tried all three knives in my hand, and then chose the knife with the middle weight.
The entire knife, handle and scabbard are wood-colored and have no decoration.
"Host, this is called Tang Hengdao. The whole sword is 107cm long and is very suitable for the host."
Ye Yiyi had never used a knife before. She chopped at the air twice and felt that it felt much better than a baseball bat.
"So are you going to take the baseball bat back?"
When the system heard this, it looked at the baseball bat in Ye Yiyi's hand.
It was covered with yellow and green brain mucus, and System Yellow Bean's eyes were full of disgust. If it hadn't understood the feelings, it would naturally recycle it. After all, it was all its own energy.
But now, the system's squirrel head was almost shaking out afterimages, fearing that if it was a step slower, Ye Yiyi would hand it the baseball bat.
Ye Yiyi found it a little funny to see the system showing such a rare lively look. Seeing that it didn't want it anymore, she put the baseball bat on the box it had just sat on.
Perhaps because she had just obtained a new weapon, Ye Yiyi was full of energy.
He found a rope in the room, put the scabbard on his back, and went out with the knife.
Although Ye Yiyi now has a system energy shield, she is no longer a reckless person. She lay down at the door and listened to make sure there were no extra footsteps before opening the door and going out.
Ye Yiyi was staying in a residential building. After she followed Yang Luoliu to the third floor, she disappeared.
But according to her usual habit, she would appear after she collected about a hundred crystal cores, so Ye Yiyi was not panicked at all.
Some people even complained that she had installed surveillance cameras on herself.
Ye Yiyi cleaned this floor very well, so there was no danger for the time being.
But Ye Yiyi didn't dare to relax. It had to be said that during these two days with Yang Luoliu, Ye Yiyi really experienced what it was like to survive in the apocalypse.
As for why she was not afraid and could accept it so naturally, first of all, the fact that Ye Yiyi was an orphan made her mentally very resilient. After all, she was able to grow up on her own. If she had been more fragile or had weaknesses, she would have disappeared long ago.
Secondly, the system promised her that she would get money after she succeeded, so Ye Yiyi treated it as a game where she could get a huge bonus after completing the game.
The most important reason is that there is a system protecting her throughout the entire process. If there were no system protection now, Ye Yiyi would run faster than anyone else.
Ye Yiyi clenched the knife in her hand and had no intention of staying on this floor. After all, there were still fifty crystal cores.
But it was a bit creepy to only be able to hear my own footsteps going up the stairs, so I walked up while chatting with the system.
"It's been almost half a month since the system started, and we can't keep up except for the daily zombie-killing missions. Her resentment hasn't even fluctuated. If this continues, it will take forever to eliminate it."
The system doesn't know either. If it knew, it wouldn't make such a fatal mistake as binding the wrong person.
"Host, don't worry. I think we should be able to find a solution once she reaches the safe base in J City."
When Ye Yiyi heard the system say this, she suddenly thought of a question.
"You said she has her memories restored. Will she still go to the safe base in J City and seek abuse?"
There was silence for a long time, and then the system thought for a moment and spoke.
"Yes, the established rules cannot be broken. Even if she wants to escape, she can't."
Ye Yiyi raised an eyebrow at the system's words without answering, and then found a more relaxed topic to start with.
The other protagonist being discussed, Yang Luoliu, was already in another building at this time.
