Chapter 1: The Most Primitive Instinct
Chapter 1: The Most Primitive Instinct
“Bai Ze, I beg you, it was all my fault before. Please, let me go!”
A young girl in JK uniform, with fine features, crouched in a corner trembling all over.
Because she was too scared, her voice trembled.
That person was Liu Yumeng, the recognized Campus Belle of Jinghai University.
As Jinghai City’s top university, only a handful could be called the Campus Belle.
It showed that Liu Yumeng was truly beautiful.
The person opposite her was Bai Ze.
At that moment, Bai Ze stood outside the door and had no intention of coming in.
“Please don’t open the door. They’ll see us. I don’t want to die yet.”
A howl sounded from outside the door, and it drew closer.
“Please stop stalling. Shut the door fast! If they come over, we’ll both die.”
Her voice carried a quiver, as if “they” were something terrifying.
Three days earlier, many meteors appeared in the sky.
What frightened people was that the observatory’s high-altitude monitoring station had not detected these meteors.
They seemed to appear out of thin air.
Luckily, those meteors were small.
They exploded after entering the atmosphere.
Just as people thought the crisis was over, the real destruction only began.
In just three short days, eighty percent of the world’s people turned into Zombies.
They bit anyone they saw, acting crazily mad.
Those who got bitten soon became them too.
The survivors could only hide in rooms, not daring to make a single sound.
Now, Bai Ze and Liu Yumeng were hiding in the school Library.
Shortly before, Bai Ze disturbed a large number of Zombies while killing some.
To stay alive, he ran wildly and happened to pass by this Warehouse, so he ducked inside.
He did not expect to meet Liu Yumeng there.
Bai Ze resented Liu Yumeng and wanted her to apologize to him.
But she said confidently that Bai Ze was like a toad dreaming of a swan, meaning he had unrealistic desires.
That led to the earlier scene.
He opened the door, ready to let more Zombies come in. He could naturally keep running, but Liu Yumeng’s legs were weak with fear. She couldn’t run out.
Seeing she still didn’t apologize, Bai Ze prepared to open another door.
Just as his hand gripped the door handle, Liu Yumeng’s mental defense finally collapsed.
“Bai Ze, I apologize for what I did before. Please, shut the door fast! They’re almost here.”
Hearing Liu Yumeng’s words, Bai Ze let go of the handle and did not open the other door.
He then locked the open door before slowly walking toward Liu Yumeng.
“Liu Yumeng, do you remember how you treated me before?”
“Just because I accidentally brushed against you, you spread rumors through the school that I groped you. It made everyone bully me for years, and even the teachers ignored me.”
“Even after that, you still didn’t let me be.”
“You actually went around calling me a peeping Tom and a dirty creep, so I never got a single girlfriend all through these four years of college.”
“Girls even avoided me when they saw me!”
Bai Ze grew angrier as he spoke, itching to slap her.
“I’m sorry, I’m sorry, it’s all my fault!” Liu Yumeng shook her head vigorously while crying and apologizing.
Bai Ze watched as this proud woman finally bowed her head before him.
Years of pent-up anger spilled out only at that moment, but it wasn’t nearly enough.
Right then, the Zombies outside started pounding madly against the door.
Both of them instantly fell silent, not even daring to breathe.
After five minutes, the Zombies outside slowly scattered because they couldn’t break down the door.
However, Bai Ze still did not relax.
Though it was safe for a short while, if he couldn’t escape the Library, he would be just as dead.
The most important thing now was to find food and water.
“Later, I’ll draw the Zombies away. You go out and grab that food.”
Bai Ze pointed to a packet of snacks on the Library table through a small window in the door.
At those words, Liu Yumeng shuddered completely.
“It’s so dangerous out there, I can’t go. Can’t you, a big man, figure out how to get it yourself?”
“If I go myself? Does that mean you don’t want the food?”
Liu Yumeng immediately looked downcast.
At just the right moment, her stomach made a “gurgle” sound.
“Well… fine then! Don’t go too far. If those Zombies chase you, you must save me.”
“Don’t worry, I won’t let you die easily.”
“But you, after you grab the food, you can’t lock the door, or I’ll kill you first,” Bai Ze showed a fierce look that made Liu Yumeng shudder again.
He couldn’t let Liu Yumeng die easily, for his rage wasn’t vented enough.
Saying that also prevented Liu Yumeng from hogging the food once she got it.
He knew Liu Yumeng was a timid woman. By saying this, she would never dare lock the door.
Bai Ze checked the situation outside through the window in the door.
At that time, there were over ten Zombies in the Library.
Those Zombies were close to the food. If he drew them away, Liu Yumeng could run out and take it.
He watched for a while longer and quickly formed a plan.
The entire Library could be seen as a circular Dimensional Space.
Bookshelves surrounded it, with tables in the middle.
All he had to do was attract the Zombies and move the tables to form a chain like a race track shape, blocking the Zombies.
As soon as he thought of it, he acted.
Bai Ze flung open the door and dashed out.
The Zombies howled and ran over the moment they heard the noise.
Bai Ze calmly straightened the closest table first.
When the zombies arrived, this row of tables had already connected together.
On the other side, Liu Yumeng saw Bai Ze rushing out, and her heart started pounding fast.
At that moment, she spotted the snacks on the table.
Her body’s craving for food made her fear of the zombies reduce a lot.
Quickly, she gathered her courage and ran towards the food.
Because all the zombies had been lured away by Bai Ze, she easily got the snacks.
But just as she was running back.
Only a “crash” sound was heard.
The glass of the library door got smashed by the zombies outside.
Lots of zombies poured into the library.
Bai Ze saw this and thought “bad sign” silently. He didn’t care about moving the tables anymore and quickly ran towards the warehouse direction.
Soon, both of them were back inside the warehouse.
Because she was panicking, Liu Yumeng beside him didn’t dodge in time.
Her mouth directly pressed against Bai Ze’s face.
Right at this moment, a system notification sounded in Bai Ze’s mind.
【Detected that the host was kissed by a girl, system unlocked.】
The system is the Many Children, Many Blessings System, for building a beautiful home and achieving the great revival of the human race, please rescue more people as soon as possible.
