Chapter 43: The failed supporting role halo
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
The young girl hugged her shoulders in fear and huddled in a corner.
From the beginning, there was a loud noise from upstairs almost every minute.
She didn't know what was going on upstairs, but it must have been terrible.
She heard the roars of the zombies. Attracted by the sound, those horrible monsters would surely rush upstairs desperately, but the loud noise did not stop at all.
This is enough to prove that the monster that made the sound is far more powerful than a zombie.
If having a monster and a shelter in one building was bad enough, hearing the noise approaching her floor was a disaster.
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
Closer and closer.
"Bang!"
There was another loud noise, and this time, the girl felt the wall behind her was shaking. The sound came from the side, and the unknown monster had already arrived at her level.
The girl held her head tightly, her trembling body curled up completely, and after closing her eyes, her other senses were magnified.
"tread."
"tread."
"tread."
She heard light footsteps in the corridor, slowly approaching, and then closer, until they stopped in front of her door.
Deathly silence.
Almost suffocating to the point of stopping the heartbeat.
"tread."
Finally, footsteps were heard again.
The girl twitched the corners of her stiff mouth, and just as she was about to breathe a sigh of relief, she heard a loud bang. Her door flew directly into the living room and slammed heavily on the wall. The high-quality anti-theft door was now twisted towards the center. She didn't know how much force and how strong something must be to create such an effect.
The next moment, the girl got an answer that she couldn't believe.
A man wearing a mask.
Although the man's hair had grown very long due to being uncared for in the apocalypse, and the mask covered his entire face, one could still tell from his Adam's apple that there was a man underneath the mask.
But, humans?
How could a human destroy a door to this extent?
At this moment, the man's eyes were on her, looking her up and down.
The girl's heart suddenly began to beat faster.
Zombies are scary, but the worst outcome of encountering one is death.
But when you meet a bad person, life is often worse than death.
“Bang, bang, bang!”
My heart started beating violently, fear made my hands and feet numb, and amid the tinnitus, the urge to vomit became stronger.
Just when she couldn't bear the fear anymore and was about to collapse.
Three unexpected words rang out from under the mask.
"Lou Ruofan?"
The girl raised her head suddenly, her eyes full of disbelief.
How did this man know her name?
Looking at the shocked girl, Chiyou couldn't help but sigh again.
It’s a small world indeed.
Meeting the Zhou siblings before was touching enough, but I didn’t expect that when I came here to look for some spare parts, I would meet one of the members of the protagonist group.
Lou Ruofan is a support character who can give various buffs to the main characters. He also has excellent healing abilities and is also a member of Li Shouyun's harem.
I didn't expect that such an important supporting character in the protagonist group would be so weak two months before the end of the world.
Chi You looked at the food piled up next to Lou Ruofan. It seemed that she had the habit of hoarding food, otherwise it would be difficult for her to maintain her normal complexion until now.
"You...you know me?" Lou Ruofan asked with a trembling voice.
"Ah, I think we are quite familiar with each other. No, I should say we are very familiar with each other. We have a pretty good relationship."
Chiyou did not lie. The two of them were indeed very familiar with each other and their relationship was so good that they were open and honest with each other.
In a physical sense.
Unfortunately, Lou Ruofan was equipped with the resurrection pendant at that time, so even though his heart was crushed by Chi You, he still came back to life.
But then again, if Lou Ruofan didn't have the resurrection pendant, Chi You would probably not have had the chance to crush her heart.
He is not the final villain, so how can he really kill the members of the protagonist group?
Thinking of this, Chiyou became interested and wanted to do an experiment.
Lou Ruofan obviously breathed a sigh of relief.
This man not only knows her, but they also have a very good relationship. In addition, Chiyou's tone is always gentle. Although the Devil Mask is a bit scary, the overall feeling he gives people is that he is kind.
"Excuse me, who are you?" Lou Ruofan asked.
Swish!
What answered her was a string of ice crystals from top to bottom.
Frost appeared on Lou Ruofan's forehead and then quickly extended downwards. Soon, Lou Ruofan's whole body fell to the left and right like a popsicle that had been broken open, with the frost in the center as the dividing point.
Chi You was afraid that Lou Ruofan's death was not thorough enough, so he went up and stabbed him a few more times.
In a short while, the frost covering the vertical section melted, and blood and internal organs poured out.
Chiyou waited silently by the side. He pulled over a chair and sat down. While waiting, he controlled his clone to search the rooms on the floor below.
One minute... ten minutes... thirty minutes...
Chiyou waited in the room for a full hour.
He looked left and right at Lou Ruofan's body and finally confirmed it.
Well...he is indeed dead.
Don't think there's something wrong with Chiyou's brain.
You know, Lou Ruofan is an important member of the protagonist group.
In his previous life, he had tried every possible way to kill this person but failed. How could this person, who had always been blessed with great luck, die so easily?
He originally thought that there was no way Lou Ruofan could be resurrected like in his previous life.
So what is the difference between these two lives?
Why didn't Lou Ruofan receive the glory of the protagonists?
After thinking it over, Chiyou felt that there were only two possibilities.
The most optimistic possibility is that with his rebirth, he also gains a certain amount of luck. Regardless of whether this luck can resist the protagonist for the time being, it is enough to ignore the halo of the supporting characters, so he can kill the important supporting character Lou Ruofan.
Another possibility is that Lou Ruofan has not yet joined the group of protagonists, and the glory of the protagonist has not yet shone on her. Now she is no different from other cannon fodder, so naturally she can be killed at will.
The reason why the second possibility is not optimistic.
Because compared to the first possibility, the second possibility shows that Chiyou’s villain aura has not increased, so when facing Li Shouyun, he will definitely still encounter difficulties everywhere.
But he couldn't be sure now which possibility it was.
We can only wait until we meet the protagonists in the future and have a real fight with them to know the answer.
However, among these two possibilities, although the first situation is more pleasing, Chiyou's heart is more inclined to the second possibility.
When estimating the strength of your enemy, never choose the most optimistic one.
He would rather overestimate the enemy, only to find that the enemy was weaker than he thought, and he made a lot of useless preparations like a fool.
Don't underestimate the enemy, or you may find that the enemy is stronger than you thought and can only smile helplessly before dying.
Chi You got up and left the room, no longer wasting time. His clone had already searched more than thirty floors. Just now, he found the possible location of the ice jade boots.
