At first, the hedgehog-haired man couldn't bear to attack his former classmates and friends, but after being scratched several times and almost dying at the hands of zombies, he gradually let go of his reluctance and began to kill with red eyes, waving the steel bar in his hand.
Xiao Tangqiu and Tang Mianmian are already veterans in killing zombies. The previous fierce battle made them able to deal with these zombies with ease. The two could even chat while fighting the zombies.
Tang Mianmian cut off the zombie's head with a dagger. His dagger had been specially modified to be able to stretch and lengthen freely, making it very suitable for sneak attacks. "Qiuqiu, I always feel like something is wrong. Do you have the same feeling?"
Xiao Tangqiu shot a zombie's head with an arrow: "I discovered it a long time ago."
Tang Mianmian quickly asked, "What's wrong?"
Xiao Tangqiu looked up at the sky: "...It's not even dawn yet."
Tang Mianmian paused for a moment, then suddenly realized, "That's right! Why hasn't the sun come up yet? This night is really too long, isn't it?"
Logically, they should have returned to the tunnel before dawn, but until now, there was no sign of dawn.
This is obviously unreasonable. Although they cannot calculate the time accurately in the copy and can only roughly estimate the time, if they both feel that the passage of time is abnormal at the same time, then there must be something wrong.
Xiao Tangqiu and Tang Mianmian looked at each other, and Xiao Tangqiu nodded: "Let's wait and see."
Xiao Tangqiu and Tang Mianmian continued to fight the zombies while paying attention to the passage of time. However, until they cleared the zombies in the area, it was still pitch black above their heads with no sign of getting brighter.
If they had only suspected that there was something wrong with the passage of time before, they were now basically certain that there was definitely something wrong with the passage of time!
Xiao Tangqiu frowned and asked Xue Junli and the others: "Did you notice? It's still dark."
Xue Junli's eyes darkened: "Indeed."
Duan Hongzhen sneered, "I've noticed this a long time ago. It's really strange. Before, the sun always couldn't wait for us to kill all the zombies before it got light. But today, it seems like it's waiting for us to kill all the zombies before getting light."
Yu Fuling also frowned and said, "It's really strange."
At this moment, Celluloid, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke up: "Maybe it's because we successfully triggered the plot."
Tang Mianmian's eyes suddenly lit up: "Yes! It's possible! That proves we're not on the wrong path!"
Xiao Tangqiu still felt that something was wrong. If they successfully triggered the plot, they would not return to the tunnel again. Then what was the meaning of the plot in the Hundred Ghosts Village?
At this moment, the hedgehog-headed man suddenly asked, "Trigger the plot? What does that mean?"
Xiao Tangqiu was stunned for a moment. This seemed to be the first time they encountered an NPC who would ask this kind of question. Every time they discussed plot-related issues in front of the NPC, the NPC would never ask questions. Every time, the NPC seemed to accept everything under the influence of the system and did not find what they said strange at all.
This hedgehog-headed NPC was the first to take the initiative to ask questions!
Xue Junli and the others were also obviously a little surprised. They looked at each other, and then Xue Junli pushed his glasses and said lightly: "Nothing, we were just discussing a game we played before."
"Games?" The hedgehog-haired man was clearly a little incredulous. "What time is it now? What games are you still discussing?"
Xue Junli readily said, "Sorry, from now on we won't be deserting our posts. Let's focus on killing zombies."
The hedgehog-head wanted to ask something, but Duan Hongzhen said bluntly: "Okay, stop wasting time and go kill the zombies!"
Yu Fuling also agreed: "Yes, let's stop talking and discuss it later."
They forcibly changed the subject and blocked the Hedgehog-Headed Man's mouth. Although the Hedgehog-Headed Man wanted to ask something, Xue Junli had already turned around and left.
Hedgehog Head scratched his head and stopped asking questions.
There were still some aftershocks from time to time, but they were not particularly severe. Several people passed through the collapsed teaching building and came to a slightly shorter building. Perhaps because it was not too high, it did not collapse in the earthquake, but the situation was still not optimistic. The walls and the ground were full of criss-crossing cracks.
Xiao Tangqiu asked Hedgehog Head: "Where is this place?"
The hedgehog-haired man sighed, "...it's the gymnasium."
The gymnasium should be the place with the most students besides the classrooms during recess. Xiao Tangqiu could see the crowded scene inside through the broken glass of the door, but of course, those students had all turned into slow-moving zombies.
Duan Hongzhen was the first to rush in, followed closely by Xue Junli and others. Xiao Tangqiu, Shen Yuan, Tang Mianmian and the hedgehog-haired guy were at the back.
When Xiao Tangqiu stepped into the gymnasium, a pile of zombies had already fallen at Duan Hongzhen's feet. They rushed over to help. Hedgehog Head swallowed his saliva, raised the blood-stained steel bar, and rushed towards his former classmates...
There were many students in the gymnasium. Xiao Tangqiu's hands were so tired from killing zombies that he couldn't help but turn around and secretly drink a bottle of potion to restore his spirit. Of course, he could have drunk the potion openly, but because Hedgehog Head had already had some suspicions, he couldn't drink it in front of Hedgehog Head, otherwise he would definitely be asked what the potion was.
After drinking the potion, he began to join the battle again.
After an unknown amount of time, all the zombies in the gymnasium were finally cleared out. Xiao Tangqiu looked out the window, only to find that it was still dark outside, with no sign of dawn, as if the day would never come.
"Do you want to continue?" Hedgehog Head asked breathlessly.
Xue Junli said calmly: "Continue."
The hedgehog-head gritted his teeth and continued to lead them forward.
Next they went to the cafeteria. Since it was not yet mealtime, there were not many students in the cafeteria, which made them feel a little relieved. After clearing out the few zombies scattered in the cafeteria, they set off to the next place.
Laboratory building, auditorium, library...
