Chapter 63

Chapter 63

Everywhere that big shot goes, danger follows.

Not to mention, there are mutant zombies nailed to the walls that not even bombs could kill.

He can nail zombies to the wall; maybe he could do the same to people.

Ye Nianchu curled her lips slightly, a cold edge showing in her calm gaze. "Master He Junheng, are you going to let us pass or not?"

The light outside had dimmed, and the sky was heavy with clouds. A cool breeze stirred, hinting at the arrival of summer rain.

He Junheng stepped forward, staying calm even with Ye Nianchu pointing a gun at him. "It’s about to rain, you know."

"The things you took from me are being put to good use," Ye Nianchu said casually.

Was this a reminder, or a threat?

Before the last five days of the game, He Junheng would never have used his S-class abilities.

So what if it rains? Even hail wouldn’t matter now.

He Junheng glanced at her indifferent face, and his eyes turned cold. "I didn’t want to force you."

Hearing this, Qin Mubai’s lips curled into a smile. His face, like finely carved white jade, turned frosty, and the long lashes shaded the darkness in his eyes.

At that moment, the mutant zombie nailed to the wall finally broke free. Its wounds started to heal, and it let out an ugly, guttural roar.

The quiet surroundings burst into chaos.

Zombies surged from all directions.

It was calling for its kind.

Everyone felt a sense of doom, their grips tightening on their weapons.

Only Qin Mubai’s smile deepened as he reached into his space and took something out.

The feeling of dread escalated, turning into pure anxiety.

The green liquid in the vial made his pale hands look even whiter.

It was an antidote—an antidote that would mutate zombies!

What on earth was he planning to do?

Ma Xin, who stood at the front, felt a chill crawl down his spine. This big shot was more terrifying than the zombies themselves.

"It’s just an antidote, right?" Ye Nianchu asked, confused.

"Yes, just an antidote," Qin Mubai replied with a smile. "But after I got the sample, I casually made an extra one."

The one in his hand was an improved version.

!?

Ye Nianchu whispered, "Are you cheating?"

Can the game even be played like this?

If it were anyone else, even if they got the sample, they wouldn’t be able to make another antidote. "Casually" was definitely an understatement here.

Zombies swarmed like a flood. Qin Mubai tossed the vial of antidote, which shattered on the ground without a trace of smell. But the surrounding zombies went even crazier, their forms shifting right before everyone’s eyes.

Their skin dried out and shrank, their bodies elongated and thinned.

In front of everyone, they transformed into an evolved version of Zombie 2.0.

Their speed and strength weren’t as powerful as Zeng Yi, who had directly injected the antidote, but their numbers made the game much harder for everyone.

People turned to stare at Qin Mubai with a mix of fear and anger, though no one dared to say anything.

Is he insane?

Does he think this game isn’t deadly enough already?

He actually made a whole batch of evolved zombies!

Does he not care about his own life, let alone others?

The boss of this game round... could it actually be him!?

Is the survival game secretly planting bosses among the players?

This is terrifying.

Gunfire erupted, breaking the chaotic tension.

At this point, He Junheng had no time to worry about anything else.

Ye Nianchu swung her knife, cutting down zombies that lunged at her. Qin Mubai had thrown the antidote toward He Junheng’s side, so most of the evolved zombies gathered around them.

The girl who had narrowly escaped death screamed and rushed over to He Junheng’s team, desperately seeking safety.

Chapter 2 (Peachland)

Chapter 2 "It's not impossible," the man across from her said, picking up some food with his chopsticks. "The system doesn’t reveal anything, and there's no response when we ask." Deng Lan agreed. She had been watching a drama at home, and then, in a blink, she was suddenly in this game. She couldn’t quit; it felt like a bad deal she had no choice but to accept. She had never seen a game this awful. Luckily, she was fortunate. When she met Ding Qi, another new player, Deng Lan was relieved to finally find a teammate. Being alone in the game was scarier than being pulled into it. "Why don’t we stay near the town exit and, on the sixth day, leave right away at dawn?" Deng Lan suggested. A hint of sarcasm flashed in Ding Qi’s eyes, but he didn’t show it. He seriously analyzed, "I think the game won’t let us pass that easily. The closer we get to the exit, the more dangerous it might be." Deng Lan didn’t know what Ding Qi was thinking, but hi

Max-Level Big Shot in the Survival Game

When Ye Nianchu is brought back into the game as a newbie, her bad luck seems to follow her everywhere. As she searches for clues, she heads straight for the BOSS. But stockpiling supplies turns into a crisis as she struggles on the way. "This game is too hard," she mutters. "Maybe all my luck was used up just meeting Qin Mubai." When they first meet, Ye Nianchu sees the boy with a paintbrush and thinks, "This NPC is really good-looking." Later, though, the boy holds a craft knife like a killer, but his smile is both kind and harmless. "Others are just trying to survive," she thinks. "He’s just playing a game. What kind of game is this? Can I report him for cheating?" In this game, players face a peaceful town that suddenly becomes a dangerous apocalypse, songs from the deep sea, a train that disappears mysteriously, a strange rainforest, and a weird sanatorium. "Danger keeps coming. Players either finish tasks to leave or die in t

Chapter 5 (Peachland)

Chapter 5 There were meals available at the B&B, but of course, they cost extra. After dinner, Ye Nianchu went up to the public terrace. From there, she could see the entire town at a glance. Smoke rose from the chimneys along the riverbank, and her gaze fell on the Huanzhen River. On the sixth day, if she couldn't leave this place, the mission would fail. The first day was almost over, and she didn’t have much time left to figure out how to pass the game. As the wind blew through the mountains, lifting her hair and the hem of her clothes, she suddenly noticed a figure. On the other side of the terrace, in front of an easel, sat a young man. He was tall and had a handsome, upright figure. His face was like it had been chiseled by a master sculptor. Pale skin, delicate features—he looked like a portrait come to life. Even from a distance, Ye Nianchu found it hard to look away. The boy held a paintbrush in his hand. His fingers were long and elegant. His clean, gentle appearance

Chapter 11 (Peachland)

Chapter 11 Some people, curious about the scene, came closer and quickly felt sick. The thought that the fish they had eaten for a midnight snack last night might have come from this river only made their fear worse. "I never want to eat fish again," someone said, shuddering. Nearby, several tourists who had stayed at the same B&B as the deceased, along with the B&B owner, stood together, looking very worried. The person they had shared a meal with just yesterday was now dead. "I saw Deng Lan last night; how could this happen?" Zhou Yun said, trembling. "Boss, did Deng Lan leave the B&B last night?" someone asked. The B&B was small, run by the owner herself, with no other staff except for a cleaning lady. The owner usually stayed at the front desk until locking up for the night before going to bed. The owner, looking pale and nervous, hesitated before answering, "I—I don't know. I didn’t pay much attention." The owner knew Den

Chapter 6 (Peachland)

Chapter 6 "As for the early clearance, those who got their qualification today might be S-ranked players," Wang Hai said. Wang Hai was still searching for someone, so he couldn’t give more details. Liang Zuo and Zhou Wen felt anxious but tried to hide it. They were beginning to think Wang Hai, who bragged about being a top player, seemed more like a con artist. "You newbies don’t know anything," Wang Hai said, glancing at them. "Since we're in the same game, let me give you a tip. For newbies like you, besides completing the quests, you should avoid top S-ranked players." "If you meet someone else, you might get lucky and clear the game with them. But if you run into one particular player, you’d better be careful." "Who?" Liang Zuo asked, leaning in. "We don’t know his name, but his last name is Qin. He’s an S-ranked big shot. It’s said that in one game round, almost everyone died, not because of the game, but because of him. T
