Chapter 452: The End of the World 02┃Reborn Ye Huai



After learning that this world is extremely dangerous, Zhuang Li took the initiative to stay and work the night shift after the experiment was completed.

After everyone left, Zhuang Li hacked into the laboratory computer, checked the inventory management files, and then went to different warehouses based on the relevant information to find the chemicals he needed one by one, and used the equipment in the laboratory to refine and synthesize them.

7480 looked at the pile of small things he had brought out and asked in confusion, "Master, what are you doing?"

"I'm making self-defense tools." Zhuang Li packed these gadgets in different containers and carried them with him.

This is a dangerous world, and to survive here, he must make himself more dangerous.

7480 just asked casually and was not interested at all. He soon immersed himself in the wonderful story in the picture book.

Zhuang Li came to the computer room of the laboratory, hacked into more than a dozen computers installed there, and placed all the computer monitors side by side so that he could read the information on all the screens at the same time with just a glance.

While others couldn't even handle a single screen, his brain could process vast amounts of data simultaneously. Therefore, he could use these dozen computers to search China's household registration system simultaneously.

This world is too dangerous, he must find Ming as soon as possible.

The information of everyone on campus was quickly retrieved, followed by the surrounding area, then the entire city, the entire province, and finally the entire country. Zhuang Li searched from point to surface, from near to far.

More than a dozen computer screens were densely packed with demographic information, and the pages were rapidly changing. While most people couldn't clearly see what was displayed, Zhuang Li could memorize it all with just a glance.

While staring at this information, he also did not forget to call up a separate computer to search for the original owner's personal information.

Suddenly, he discovered something very interesting. One of the original owner's roommates had recently been posting online about the "end of the world is coming," urging everyone to prepare for the zombie apocalypse.

This roommate's name was Ye Huai, and he came from a very wealthy family. Although he posted these posts anonymously, his concealment was so poor that Zhuang Li easily saw through him.

Zhuang Li raised his eyebrows, asked 7480 to watch over the other dozen computers instead of him, and then concentrated on reading Ye Huai's doomsday post.

It was obvious that this person was very anxious, and he kept emphasizing in large red font: [The apocalypse is really coming! In six months, a meteorite shower will visit Earth! The virus brought by the meteorite will turn some humans into zombies, some into superpowers, and the rest will remain ordinary people. Zombies will eat people! Ordinary people who have been bitten will also become zombies, and only a very small number of superpowers are immune! The horrors in the movies will play out in real life! Prepare for the apocalypse! Remember, on your escape, never run away with superpowers! Never!]

He described in detail the tragic process of how an entire city, and indeed all of human society, fell in just a few days. But no one believed him. Netizens all laughed and joked under his post, saying he was mentally ill.

He posted many messages in succession, repeatedly explaining how to survive in the apocalypse, and then disappeared.

He gradually realized that no matter how loudly he shouted, no one would believe these seemingly absurd words.

But Zhuang Li believed it. He judged: "This Ye Huai must be a reborn person."

"He might also be a tasker." 7480 gave his own guess.

"He's unlikely to be a tasker. The Lord's goal is to plunder everything in this parallel universe. The tasks assigned to K's taskers are definitely about plundering. This world is their testing ground. The more chaotic and dangerous it is, the higher the points they earn in the trials. Therefore, taskers hope for this world to fall into apocalypse. They are contrary to the fundamental interests of the indigenous people, and they are unlikely to post such a warning. Of course, I don't deny that there are good people among the taskers, but I think the probability of encountering such good people is lower than that of encountering reborn people."

Having said that, Zhuang Li smiled sarcastically.

7480 suggested: "Master, why don't you go and test this Ye Huai?"

Speak of the devil and he will appear. As soon as 7480 finished speaking, Zhuang Li's cell phone rang, and the caller ID showed "Ye Huai".

"Zhuang Li, I heard that you are on night shift today? Is there anyone else in the laboratory besides you?" Ye Huai started to inquire about the situation in the laboratory.

"There is no one else." Zhuang Li answered truthfully.

"Then I'll come right over, and you help me prepare everything." After saying this incoherent sentence, Ye Huai cut off the signal.

Zhuang Li had no idea what Ye Huai wanted, but he wasn't in a hurry. He took out his phone and checked the chat history between the original owner and Ye Huai, and he understood the whole process. It turned out that this person had paid the original owner a sum of money to help him steal some chemicals from the laboratory.

Zhuang Li checked the list of items Ye Huai had sent him and discovered that while these items appeared to be fragmented and harmless chemical reagents, when put together, they were actually the raw materials for making explosives. The original owner must have noticed something, so he kept asking for a higher price.

The two negotiated an initial salary of 5,000 yuan to 30,000 yuan.

Zhuang Li had a rough idea of the original owner's personality. He was a lonely, greedy, cold, selfish freak who didn't get along with anyone.

It’s okay to be a freak, as the interpersonal relationships are simple and it saves trouble.

Zhuang Li put his phone aside and continued to stare at the dozen or so computers.

About fifteen minutes later, Ye Huai walked into the computer room and asked, "Where are my things?"

"Please sit down." Zhuang Li pointed to a chair next to him.

Ye Huai sat down and took a breath, pointing at a dozen computers and said in surprise: "Why are they all broken? Did you do it? This will cost a lot of money, right?" When he said the last sentence, there was a hint of gloating in his tone.

The demographic information on the computer screen slid so fast that it turned into a flurry of snow in his eyes.

Zhuang Li took the time to glance at him and said straight to the point, "Those apocalypse posts were posted by you, right?"

"What doomsday post?" Ye Huai asked back with a puzzled look.

Zhuang Li went straight to the point, "How did you get that information? Was it a dream, premonition, or something else?"

Ye Huai continued to play dumb: "What on earth are you talking about? Did you take the wrong medicine tonight?"

Zhuang Li called up a computer and was about to display the evidence he had found that could prove Ye Huai was the poster, but there was a knock on the door of the computer room.

Ye Huai finally got nervous and ran to open the door. Damn, why did Zhuang Li suddenly become so difficult?

Standing outside the door was a tall, thin, and ordinary-looking male teacher in a white lab coat. He first hid in the dim corridor before slowly entering the lighted area of the duty room. He narrowed his eyes and smiled, saying, "Hey, student, some equipment has come downstairs, and I can't move it. Could you please help me?"

Ye Huai was very uncomfortable with Zhuang Li's aggressive pressure and was just looking for an excuse to leave, so he immediately agreed: "Okay, where is the equipment? I'll go with you."

"It's just downstairs." The male teacher smiled gratefully.

Ye Huai opened the door and walked out.

Zhuang Li stopped them at this moment and said, "Teacher, I'll help you move your things too."

The male teacher hesitated for a second, then smiled and said thank you.

Zhuang Li asked 7480 to help watch over a dozen computers while he put on his coat and walked out of the duty room with Ye Huai. When he passed by the male teacher, he accidentally bumped into him, but instead of saying sorry, he grabbed Ye Huai's hand and said, "Hurry up."

"Why are you walking so fast? Are you in a hurry to reincarnate?" Ye Huai staggered as he was pulled by him.

"If you walk slowly, you will really be reincarnated." Zhuang Li said playfully.

Ye Huai secretly cursed the man in his heart, calling him a lunatic, and was about to shake him off when he heard a loud bang behind him.

He quickly turned back to check what was happening, and his eyes nearly popped out of his rims. Shit! For some unknown reason, the male teacher had a bloody, fleshy hole on the left side of his waist and abdomen. Stomach, kidneys, intestines, and other internal organs were falling out of the hole, and the surrounding walls were splattered with blood and flesh. The scene was horrific.

What happened? Wasn't it fine just now?

Ye Huai immediately ran over to help. After being reborn, he was already accustomed to similar tragic situations.

7480 took a moment to glance outside and asked, "Master, what did you do to him?"

It's such a horrific and bloody scene, no one needs to ask who created it.

Zhuang Li chuckled and said, "I stuffed a capsule bomb I just made into his left pocket to test its power."

7480 felt the same trembling feeling it had when it first met its master. Its voice trembled as it asked, "Master, just to test the power of this bomb, you're going to use a stranger as a target? Have you really reached this point of evil? Has your heart gone off the charts again?"

It was so scared that the picture book in its hand fell down.

Ye Huai was so frightened that he knelt on the ground and trembled as he spoke: "How could this happen? Why did his stomach suddenly explode?"

Zhuang Li walked slowly to the dying male teacher and said calmly, "Look carefully, he is not human."

"Not a human?" Ye Huai had experienced the end of the world, so he was most afraid of hearing this sentence.

If it wasn't a human, then it must be a zombie. He was horrified and quickly crawled back using all four limbs.

The male teacher was covering the big hole in his stomach, spitting out blood one mouthful after another, his eyes fixed on Ye Huai.

Fortunately, it was already around eight or nine in the evening, and most of the teachers and students in the laboratory building had already left. In addition, the sound insulation facilities between the laboratories were very good, so the loud noise had not yet attracted any outsiders.

Of course, even if someone came, Zhuang Li was not worried at all. He had a hundred ways to get out of this situation.

He raised his chin towards Ye Huai and ordered, "Drag him into the machine room."

"He's a zombie! We can't touch him!" Ye Huai finally revealed his secret.

"He's not a zombie, he's probably a reptile." Zhuang Li walked over to the man, flipped his eyelids, and said, "Didn't you notice? He has a pair of lizard eyes. Just now, when he walked from the dim corridor into the light strip at the door, his pupils changed."

Ye Huai then walked over cautiously and stared into the man's eyes for a while, but couldn't find anything unusual.

He looked at Zhuang Li with suspicion.

Zhuang Li didn't explain further. Within 0.01 seconds, the man's pupils expanded from vertical to round. This rapid change was impossible for most people to detect.

Zhuang Li stood up and said lightly, "He's here to kill you."

Ye Huai: “!!!”
