“The school is locked down, everyone can’t get out, so the whole dormitory area is singing to protest!”
Singing to protest? What on earth?
Are you sure you’re not just making noise, disturbing people, and launching a sonic attack on the teachers and students of nearby schools?
The sisters chatted about a few more random topics, and finally hung up the phone because Lù Cí couldn’t stand the strong background noise.
Facts have proven that this noise attack was very effective. The next morning, Lù Cí received a congratulatory message from her sister Lù Yōuyōu celebrating the success of the revolution and the unblocking of the campus! The reason was that the teachers and students of the surrounding schools couldn’t stand the students’ singing and complained to the school. The school had no choice but to decide to unblock, but also issued some measures to prevent the flu.
Lù Cí was unaware of all this. What worried her now was the problem of sleeping tonight, fearing that as soon as she fell asleep, she would be pulled into the zombie space again to kill zombies.
But she couldn't stay awake either, she couldn't go without sleep all the time.
Forget it, let fate decide. If I get pulled in, I get pulled in. I’ll just consider it exercise.
So she happily decided, turned off the lights, and went to sleep!
Seven in the morning, the sun was shining brightly.
A melodious piece of music sounded in the room. Lù Cí suddenly sat up in bed. The roars of zombies in her ears finally disappeared completely. She had come out of that other dimension space.
As expected, after falling asleep last night, she was pulled into that zombie-filled space again and woke up in that messy, dusty small shop. This time, she could use lightning energy. As soon as the ice energy condensed, it quickly dissipated in the air, completely incomparable to how she had been slaughtering everything before.
Just like last time, it started with one zombie, turning into two, two into four, four into eight, increasing exponentially.
The lightning energy also went from unfamiliar use at the beginning to absolute mastery in the end. From a few small bolts of lightning at the start, it became like a thunderous downpour later on. With a wave of her hand, countless lightning bolts descended from the sky. It had to be said that the destructive power of lightning energy seemed greater, directly electrocuting the zombies into ashes.
After a night of fierce killing in real-time, the crystal cores she obtained last night were three times what she got in the afternoon. She also encountered red-eyed zombies, orange-eyed zombies, and yellow-eyed zombies that evolved from golden-eyed zombies.
These evolved zombies were more powerful than the last. Last night, she was injured countless times. Fighting in pain was a test of her endurance. Finally, when the bell rang, there was almost no part of her body unharmed. She was covered in blood, like a female ghost who had just crawled out of a pool of blood.
As soon as she detached from that killing space, Lù Cí found herself sweating profusely as if she had been drenched in water. There were still some blackish-gray stains on her skin. Had her internal body been cleaned again?
Lù Cí got up and went to the bathroom to take a quick hot shower. She cleaned herself up before coming out.
She threw the dirty clothes and stained bedsheets into the washing machine for a quick wash, ensuring they could be hung out to dry before she left.
The text message prompt sounded. It was a celebratory message from her sister Lù Yōuyōu about the campus reopening. The school being sealed for just one day felt like playing house, purely childish.
After reminding her not to run around, Lù Cí put down her phone and looked out the floor-to-ceiling window at the bright, sunny world. The sense of impending crisis that had followed her like a shadow yesterday morning seemed to have disappeared today. The whole world and its surroundings were peaceful.
