Planet Nibiru, home of flower growers, Shencheng.
Luo Yi was tucking into his bowl of pork knuckle rice, his fingers swiping through his phone as he scrolled through short videos.
Actually, he wasn't a native of Nibiru, but had been transported here by accident.
Compared to his original world, Nibiru's technology was far more advanced.
However, technological development here was uneven, and ordinary people didn't have access to many high-tech products.
In his previous life, he was an orphan, and the differences between the two worlds were significant. Although he didn't become a wealthy man after crossing over, he managed to study hard and get into a key university in Shencheng, and after graduation, he stayed here to work.
Luo Yi wolfed down the rest of his takeout, tossed the container into the trash, stretched, and went back to his room to play games. He
was usually extremely busy at work, and even then he had to work overtime.
Today, he finally had a break, sleeping until noon, and this afternoon was all to himself.
It was dark before he knew it while he was playing games. Luo Yi was thinking about splurge today and go out for a meal.
As soon as he opened the door, a slim figure passed by his house.
She was a tall girl, who looked a few years older than Luo Yi and was very pretty. She
had a fair oval face that was so tender that you could pinch water out of it, eyes that were as bright as stars, a gentle smile on the corners of her mouth, and her whole person exuded a friendly aura.
She wore a gray printed T-shirt on her upper body, and her proud figure made the cartoon pattern on her chest look like a 3D version.
She wore a fashionable black short skirt on her lower body, the hem just reaching her knees, which made her straight and slender legs even more eye-catching.
"Sister Wanqi, what a coincidence?"
The girl's name was Rong Wanqi, 27 years old. Her parents had passed away a long time ago and she was still single. She was Luo Yi's landlord and usually lived next door to him.
"Luo Yi, are you going out too?" She stopped and asked with a smile.
"Yeah, I was planning on going out for dinner."
"That's fine, just order less takeout,"
she said gently, a hint of concern. "There are plenty of clean fast food restaurants downstairs with open kitchens, so you can eat there without worry."
The pretty landlady smiled gently at him, and Luo Yi couldn't help but smile.
"By the way, Sister Wanqi, I've already transferred next quarter's rent to you."
"What's the rush?" She waved her hand casually. "It's not like I need that little money."
Rong Wanqi certainly had plenty of money. In Shenyang, where housing prices are staggering, she owned two apartments.
Her job was easy, and she drove the latest electric car to and from work every day, leading a carefree life.
In comparison, Luo Yi was much more financially strapped, having to carefully budget his food, clothing, and daily expenses, unable to live as freely as she did.
Rong Wanqi, like most women, loved beauty, fashion, and was always curious about new things.
But what made her different was that she wasn't the least bit spoiled, and was actually exceptionally caring.
This allowed Luo Yi, who was working alone in a foreign land, to feel the warmth of home from time to time.
It would be a lie to say that a young man who had been deprived of love since childhood didn't have some thoughts when he met such a sexy and gentle beautiful sister.
Luo Yi looked at the slender back of Rong Wanqi as she opened the door, and his heart was restless like a cat scratching.
Especially the perfectly curved buttocks, which seemed to be carefully sculpted by God.
Luo Yi couldn't help but take a few more glances, but finally forced himself to look away.
Hearing the sound of the door closing from next door, Luo Yi walked towards the elevator.
Late at night, Luo Yi lay in bed staring at the ceiling in a daze.
Thinking of going to work again tomorrow, his mood suddenly became as depressed as that of all working people.
Just as he was about to fall asleep, a dazzling white light suddenly lit up outside the window.
The light was so pure that it was almost holy, and in an instant, it swallowed Luo Yi whole.
His consciousness gradually became blurred, and finally he fell into complete darkness.
...
Suddenly, a piercing screeching of brakes erupted in his ears, along with a mixture of cries and screams.
Luo Yi felt his temples throbbing, and with difficulty, he opened his eyes to find himself lying on the cold floor.
"What happened last night..."
He rubbed his aching head, trying to recall the strange events of the previous night.
His memory, however, only lingered on that eerie white light. He tried to take a picture with his phone, but his vision went black, and he knew nothing.
Luo Yi supported himself on the floor and scrambled to his feet, shaking his head.
As the dizziness subsided, the noise outside the window became clearer.
He instinctively turned his head to look, and the sight was as if he had fallen into an icy cave!
The once orderly streets had now become a hellish scene.
The pileup of cars erupted in flames, and amidst the billowing smoke, blood-soaked "people" wandered hunched over in the streets.
Their movements were stiff and twisted, and they looked nothing like normal people.
Just then, the door of the car that had rear-ended the car suddenly opened.
The driver crawled out, a face shrouded in terror. Seeing the devastation around him, he scrambled to escape.
But the bloody men pounced on him like sharks at the scent of blood.
In the blink of an eye, the poor man was torn to pieces by the swarming monsters.
Before Luo Yi could recover, two mysterious beams of light suddenly appeared out of nowhere.
One of them split into two and pierced directly into his eyes, causing him to feel a tingling tingle in his eye sockets.
Another one hovered quietly before him, as if awaiting its master's claim.
The apocalyptic tragedy outside the window no longer held Luo Yi's attention. The sudden arrival of the system sent his adrenaline racing, his heart pounding.
This was a system!
In this apocalyptic world suddenly plunged into chaos, having a system meant things once unimaginable were now within reach!
Power, wealth, beautiful women...
Luo Yi's eyes blazed with ambition, and without hesitation, he reached out to grasp the light before him.
[Ding~ Congratulations to the host for obtaining the "Telekinesis" ability.] Xiao Ai's cheerful voice echoed.
[You can manipulate objects with your mind, and the power increases with your level~]
Luo Yi looked down at his hands, and a translucent virtual interface suddenly appeared before his eyes.
[Host Information: Name: Luo Yi]
[Height: 182cm]
[Favorability: 60 (Neighborly Friendly)]
[Power: Telekinesis]
[Current Level: F-Class]
(Telekinesis: Can manipulate a single object, maximum weight: 3kg, effective range: 5 meters.)
"Is this the query function?"
Luo Yi muttered to himself, turning his gaze to a zombie tearing into a corpse outside the window.
The virtual interface immediately refreshed.
Target Information:
[Name: Common Zombie] [
Traits: Infectious]
[Threat Level: F]
(Infectious Traits: Spread through bodily fluids, bites/scratches cause mutation within 30 minutes.)
Seeing that both he and the zombie were F-Class, Luo Yi couldn't help but ask, "Xiao Ai, how do I upgrade my power?"
[Ding~ Upgrading is simple! Every 10 zombies of the same level killed will automatically evolve.]
[Special Reminder: The first time you kill a new zombie, a special treasure chest will drop, which can hold valuable rewards! ]
[Ordinary zombies also have a small chance of dropping ordinary treasure chests, but the rewards are relatively ordinary~]
Luo Yi had originally thought that receiving the newbie gift pack would be enough, but who knew there were more rewards waiting for him?
His eyes fell on the fruit knife on the bedside table, and he tried to connect with it with his telekinesis.
Miraculously, the knife, as if grasped by an invisible hand, floated towards him.
After some experimentation, Luo Yi had a rough idea of his ability.
Currently, he could only manipulate a single object, but if he moved beyond a five-meter range, he would lose control and the object would fall to the ground.
Outside the window, there was no sign of life; the relentless howling of the zombies was terrifying.
Luo Yi quickly closed the window and headed for the living room.
It was unfortunate, he hadn't anticipated the apocalypse, leaving his family without even the most basic supplies.
Fortunately, he had some snacks, instant noodles, and mineral water stocked in the cupboard, enough to last a few days.
Luo Yi felt as if he had traveled back to the previous century, his phone reduced to bricks, his computer a mere decoration, and all his high-tech gadgets completely shut down.
"At least there's electricity..."
He thought, reaching for the light switch, but the light wouldn't come on for a long time.
"Damn, I'm so lucky!" Luo Yi couldn't help but grumble at himself.
He turned and went into the bathroom, digging out every container in the house that could hold water. He
filled several large buckets, washbasins, even the bathtub, with tap water.
"The water should be fine now, but who knows if the supply will stop in a few days?"
he muttered as he filled the water. "What if it's contaminated? If I drink it, I might turn into a zombie..."
After filling the water, he wiped his hands and thought to himself, "If I don't have enough food, I can probably survive for five or six days, but if I don't have water, I'm afraid I'll be gone in three days."
He tiptoed to the window by the corridor, quietly lifted a corner of the curtain, and looked out.
Sure enough, a zombie was wandering aimlessly in the corridor.
The building had five units per floor, and the long corridor outside was usually deserted, but now it looked even more eerie.
Luo Yi knew this wasn't a place to stay for long. Food supplies were limited, and if the zombie population swelled, he'd be completely trapped.
Furthermore, his mother's whereabouts were unknown. He couldn't hide here forever; he had to find a way out!
The zombie outside the window was only a low-level F-class, slow-moving. With proper planning, it shouldn't be difficult to defeat.
Luo Yi wasn't the type to act rashly. He carefully closed the curtains and began searching the house for any useful weapon.
He first dismantled the balcony clothesline and taped the fruit knife securely to the top with black tape, creating a makeshift "spear." He
then went to the kitchen and selected the sharpest fruit knife.
It was the perfect weight, perfectly within his telekinetic range.
"If the spear misses, I can use my telekinesis to control the knife and finish it off,"
Luo Yi thought, placing the two weapons on the table.
He dug out his motorcycle helmet and work gloves, donned his thickest cotton coat, and donned high-top work boots.
Though the room was stiflingly hot after the power outage, with temperatures approaching 30 degrees Celsius, and he was sweating profusely,
safety came first. In this world, he couldn't afford a second chance to make a mistake.
Luo Yi suddenly remembered a zombie movie he'd seen before, where the protagonist strapped books to his arms to protect himself from bites.
He hesitated, then decided to trust his own equipment.
He wanted to equip himself like the movie, but after searching his entire house, he couldn't find even a magazine.
"You only regret not having enough books when you need them!" he slapped his thigh in frustration.
When he graduated, he'd sold all his books as scrap, thinking they were useless. Now he regretted it. He
had no choice but to rely on his thick cotton coat.
"With the zombies out there, they probably can't bite through this thickness..." he consoled himself.
Clutching a sharp knife in his left hand and a homemade spear in his right, Luo Yi gently lifted a corner of the curtain with the tip of his knife.
The zombie, with its back to him, staggered off into the distance.
"Now!"
He released his left hand, telekinetically suspending the knife behind his head, and carefully unlocked the door.
With a creaking sound, the rusty hinges creaked.
The zombie slowly turned, its face a horrific sight.
Its heavily decayed skin had a grayish sheen, its lips missing, revealing jagged teeth streaked with flesh.
Most horrifying of all were its cloudy white eyes, which strangely shifted at the noise!
"Ugh... Ugh..." the zombie groaned horribly, raising its hands stiffly.
Luo Yi took a deep breath, gripped the spear tightly in both hands, and charged.
Fortunately, the monster moved as slowly as a sloth; he aimed and stabbed it in the face.
"Puff!"
The fruit knife stabbed deep into the zombie's cheek, black blood splattering everywhere, but the creature was still flailing.
Luo Yi's heart skipped a beat!
The zombie's movements were slow, but its strength was terrifying.
It actually bent the clothesline with its face. Its rotten cheek pushed forward against the blade, and the clothesline creaked under the weight.
"Huh..."
The zombie waved its arms wildly, its nails gleaming coldly in the black blood, and it was about to grab the corner of Luo Yi's clothes.
At the critical moment, Luo Yi suddenly concentrated his mind, and the sharp knife hovering behind his head shot out with a whoosh!
The tip of the blade precisely pierced the zombie's forehead, piercing it through.
The zombie froze instantly, frozen in place like a robot with no power.
Luo Yi seized the opportunity to draw his spear, and the zombie fell to the corridor with a thud, dark red blood oozing from the hole in its skull.
"I really need a headshot..."
Luo Yi panted, and struck the rotten skull several more times with his spear.
Only when the brains were churned out did he feel completely relieved.
[Ding! Killed an ordinary F-rank zombie, current progress 1/10.]
[Host, keep going! 9 more to evolve to E-rank!] Xiao Ai's energetic notification sounded in his mind.
Luo Yi wiped his sweat. The evolution conditions were much simpler than he had imagined.
Ten zombies, with some effort, should be possible.
He looked down at the corpse, recognizing it from the familiar plaid shirt: it was Uncle Zhang, the man next door.
He'd seen him cheerfully carrying groceries home the day before yesterday, but now... Luo Yi shook his head.
A zombie's skull was much more fragile than a living one; it seemed resurrection didn't come without a price.
Luo Yi used telekinesis to retract the knife, discovering that this ability was more effective than he'd imagined. He could manipulate the weapon with almost the same force as a full-strength blow.
[Ding! Congratulations to the host on your first zombie kill. You've obtained an F-rank special chest. It's been deposited in the reward vault.]
[Because this is your first special chest, the prize pool is fully unlocked, and the highest reward awaits you!]
Just as he straightened up, the door to the next room creaked open.
Luo Yi turned to meet Rong Wanqi's horrified face. "Luo...Luo Yi, you, you killed someone?" Her voice was trembling.
"Sister Wanqi, that person is no longer a human being." Luo Yi wiped the black blood off the knife.
Rong Wanqi also saw that strange light last night.
She picked up her phone to record the whole process, but ended up falling asleep inexplicably while watching.
Google search TWKAN
. When she woke up this morning and saw the tragic scene outside, she kept deceiving herself that she was having a nightmare.
It was not until she witnessed Luo Yi killing the zombie Uncle Zhang with her own eyes that she had to accept this cruel reality.
Luo Yi looked at Rong Wanqi through the slit in his helmet.
The girl lived alone and was probably staying at home last night. She was wearing a light pink silk nightgown, the fabric so thin that it was light-transparent.
Under the translucent fabric, her fair skin was faintly visible, highlighting her curves even more seductively.
He swung the spear casually, and dark red dirty blood splashed on the ground.
Although he was not sure whether zombie blood was contagious, it was always better to be careful.
The iron door in the stairwell was firmly shut, shielding the hallway from the sight of only one zombie.
The elevator had long been out of service, and climbing down to the eighth floor unarmed was practically a death-defying feat.
For now, it would be more practical to open the treasure chests first; perhaps they'd find something life-saving.
Rong Wanqi stood at the doorway, bewildered. Luo Yi suddenly remembered his newly unlocked skill and used a detection on her.
[Name: Rong Wanqi.]
[Stats: 172, D cup.]
[Favorability: 95.]
[Special Talent: Lucky.]
[Combat Rating: F Rank.]
(Lucky: The Chosen One, capable of turning even the most perilous situations into safe havens.)
Luo Yi raised an eyebrow at the beautiful landlord's stats.
Wow, not only is she a hottie, but she also possesses the god-level talent of "Lucky"!
With that kind of luck, she might even get an SSR item from a blind box!
"Um... Luo Yi..."
Rong Wanqi finally mustered the courage to speak, her gaze deliberately averted from the pool of blood on the floor.
Her eyelashes fluttered, a perfectly defined mist forming in her eyes. Her pitiful expression would have made any man want to embrace her.
"Do you... have any food?"
she asked softly. "I was planning to go grocery shopping today, but now there's not even a piece of bread left at home..."
"Yes,"
Rong Wanqi's eyes lit up, and she unconsciously took a step forward, completely unaware that the movement revealed a sliver of white at the neckline of her nightgown.
"Can you give me some?"
"Of course,"
Luo Yi said with a harmless smile, but just as she was about to move closer, he suddenly changed the subject.
"But Sister Wanqi..."
He swiftly stepped forward, bracing himself against the wall with one hand, trapping her in the corridor corner.
"These days, supplies can't be given away for free. What are you going to offer in exchange?"
Rong Wanqi's breath caught at the sudden wall-bang.
Before she could react, Luo Yi leaned over and whispered in her ear, "No signal, the power grid is down... Sister Wanqi is so smart, you should understand what this means, right?"
Rong Wanqi's beautiful eyes sparkled. Even if the apocalypse were imminent, with the nation's immense strength, even if damaged, power could be restored in a fraction of a second. Therefore, the scene before her was no accident.
"I... don't have anything to offer..."
She lowered her eyes, her long eyelashes fluttering, making her look even more pitiful.
"No, you still have something most precious."
...
The world was plunged into blood and chaos, filled with slaughter, despair, and mournful cries.
Factories once roared with machinery, now silent. The entire Blue Planet was paralyzed.
And in space, the massive space station, Noah, hailed as a "utopian space," gazed down impassively at the devastated planet below.
At this moment, in the Fontainebleau neighborhood of Shenyang, a charming scene unfolded within an ordinary residential building.
The man's muscular body, as perfect as an ancient Greek statue, entwined with the woman's exquisite curves, formed a thrilling scene.
Rong Wanqi lay on Luo Yi's chest, exhausted and unwilling to move.
Only then did she realize that the past twenty years of her life had been wasted.
If it weren't for the improved physical fitness after awakening his superpowers, coupled with his youth and strength, Luo Yi would have almost been unable to withstand the landlady.
Luo Yi tilted his head and caught a glimpse of the dazzling plum blossom on the bed sheet, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously curled up.
This was his first time, and also hers.
This special memory was destined to be deeply imprinted in the lives of both of them.
Luo Yi had originally thought that he would have to use some tricks to succeed, but he didn't expect Rong Wanqi's reaction to be completely unexpected.
Now that he thought about it carefully, she always found various excuses to get him to come to the house to help, and often invited him to stay for dinner. Those little gestures had already hinted clearly.
Not to mention that she had deliberately worn that revealing silk nightgown today...
Who would wear such seductive clothing at home? After
the two of them cuddled together for a while, Luo Yi propped himself up and pulled out the special treasure chest from the void.
Of course, Rong Wanqi couldn't see it.
The "F" mark on the treasure chest had disappeared, meaning the items it could reveal were no longer limited to the lowest level. Perhaps even a truly exceptional item could change the status quo.
Just as Luo Yi was about to open the chest, an idea struck him—Rong Wanqi was gifted with "Lucky Fortune"!
He grabbed her limp hand: "Wanqi, lend me your hand for a minute."
"Hmm...?"
Rong Wanqi mumbled, her hand unconsciously slipping where it shouldn't be...
"Not there!"
Luo Yi, feeling both amused and embarrassed, quickly placed her hand on the chest and gently pushed it open.
The chest suddenly erupted with a dazzling golden light—a truly exceptional item!
Before Luo Yi could react, the golden light whizzed directly into his brow.
[Congratulations, host, for drawing a storage space!]
[This space is a full cubic kilometer! However, no living things can be placed there. Everything inside will be automatically sterilized, keeping it fresh forever!]
Storage space?!
Luo Yi was so excited that he squeezed Rong Wanqi's small hand.
Turning around and seeing her lazy and attractive appearance, his heart suddenly warmed up, and without saying a word, he pressed on her again.
...
Luo Yi had no intention of revealing the existence of the system to anyone for the time being, not even Rong Wanqi.
However, the matter of the storage space could be shared, after all, it would be needed in the future.
"Is there really such a magical space?"
Rong Wanqi wiped the corner of her mouth, blinking her big watery eyes and looking at Luo Yi.
Horrifying roars could be heard from outside the window from time to time.
In the past, Rong Wanqi would definitely be trembling with fear at these man-eating monsters.
But now with Luo Yi by her side, she felt particularly at ease. " Ah!" Suddenly
, a man's furious roar shattered the silence within the room. [ Remember this website 's
domain name: Taiwan Novel Network → что ... The falling man was instantly overwhelmed by the zombie swarm, ripped to pieces in the blink of an eye. From the upstairs window, a bald, muscular man poked his head out. After confirming his target's death, he spat viciously before closing the window. Luo Yi narrowed his eyes and surveyed the other side. Although he didn't recognize the bald man, his exaggerated muscular build suggested a seasoned warrior. It was only the first day of the apocalypse! Everyone else was huddled in their homes, trembling, and this guy had already attacked his own kind? In Luo Yi's eyes, this heartless beast was more terrifying than the zombies outside. Previously, with the law in place, these people dared not act so recklessly. Now that order has collapsed, the darkest sides of human nature are exposed. Fortunately, the curtains were tightly drawn. If the bald man had seen Rong Wanqi, a stunning beauty, he might have harbored evil intentions. Luo Yi gently lowered the curtains, his eyes growing colder. This bald man... must die! Rong Wanqi trembled slightly in Luo Yi's arms, like a frightened little rabbit. Luo Yi gently stroked her back and whispered, "Stay home and be a good girl. No matter who knocks, don't open the door. Remember?" "Well...what about you?" She lifted her delicate face, her eyes filled with worry. Luo Yi squeezed her soft palm, "We can't stay home forever." "The food is running low. I'm going to search this floor first, then check downstairs." "You must be careful!" Rong Wanqi unconsciously clutched the corner of his clothes, her voice dripping with a hint of coquettish dependence. "Don't worry, I've just been watching carefully." "These zombies move slowly during the day, but I don't know if they'll be more dangerous at night... Besides, I'm not going there to die, I'm just looking for something to eat." Rong Wanqi bit her lip and nodded. She knew that hiding at home would eventually lead to starvation. Although reluctant, she gave Luo Yi a tight hug, not looking away until he was safely out. Luo Yi put on his previous outfit again and headed out, carrying his homemade spear. He'd purposely wrapped the spearhead's fruit knife several times with black tape, fearing it might come loose during a fight. While the weapon was crudely made, it was long enough to keep a safe distance from the zombies. Arriving at Uncle Zhang's door, Luo Yi found it wide open. Cautiously, he entered and immediately spotted a zombie lying facedown behind it, its head shattered. He squatted down to examine Uncle Zhang's body and, as expected, found bite marks on his arm. Now the story was clear: Uncle Zhang's wife had likely transformed into a zombie first, then bit him. After killing her, Uncle Zhang became infected himself and tried to get help, but he was completely transformed before he even left the hallway. The elderly couple, childless, stockpiled groceries, leaving their refrigerator overflowing. Luo Yi stored all the food in his refrigerator, including tea, alcohol, and other items, into his storage space. After cleaning up Uncle Zhang's house, Luo Yi walked to the next door and knocked. The roar of a zombie immediately erupted from the room. It pounded on the door like crazy, eager to burst out and tear him apart. Luo Yi fished a wrench and hook from his pocket, completely ignoring the zombie's roars behind the door, and focused on fiddling with the door lock. He had grown up in an orphanage, without a parent, but he had hung out with some "capable" people and learned some unique lock-picking skills. Click—in just a few clicks, the lock was loose. He yanked the door open, and the zombie inside fell flat on its face. Before the creature could even get up, Luo Yi's spear had already pierced its temple. The spear point pierced through, and the zombie twitched twice before falling completely motionless. "Eight left." Luo Yi pulled out his spear, knowing full well—with his current luck, he'd probably have to kill until his hands cramped up to get another treasure chest from ordinary zombies. The room was empty, with neither a living soul nor much food. Luo Yi kicked the zombie in the head in frustration and headed out. The last house on this floor had also turned zombie-like, and Luo Yi's heart skipped a beat. The infection rate this time... I'm afraid it's frighteningly high.
With nearly ten billion people worldwide, the zombie population is expected to reach astronomical numbers!
The more Luo Yi thought about it, the more he felt something was amiss. The strange light last night was most likely connected to this disaster.
And looking at the pre-built underground shelters, it was clear someone had known about the disaster. They
had indeed issued shelters before, but it was obvious that only the wealthy and powerful could get in, or the top talents in their respective fields.
An ordinary person like him, with no connections, wouldn't even have a clue.
He didn't usually tend to speculate, but these events combined made him think twice.
When he pried open the door to the last household on the eighth floor, Luo Yi was prepared.
As the door cracked, the sharp knife behind him flew out, piercing the man's forehead with precision.
He had already become a zombie.
The woman lunged at him, her maw gaping, but Luo Yi stabbed her through the heart, pinning her to the dining table.
With a thought, the knife on the man's forehead flew back, freeing her completely.
But Luo Yi did not dare to relax. He clearly heard rustling noises in the second bedroom just now.
He slowly approached the second bedroom, suddenly turned the doorknob, and then kicked the door open fiercely.
He saw a thin figure curled up in the corner with his back to him, his shoulders twitching, as if crying.
Luo Yi tentatively called out: "Xiao Yu?"
He knew this little boy. He was a well-known naughty boy in the community. Although he was a little naughty, he was much more lovable than those real naughty children.
Hearing the sound, the little boy stopped sobbing and turned his head slowly.
At first glance, the face looked human, but a closer look would make people's hair stand on end!
The entire eye socket was almost entirely white, and the skin was an abnormal bluish-gray color.
The weirdest thing was that there was no blood on the little guy. Seeing Luo Yi raise his spear, Xiaoyu suddenly revealed a look of terror, covering his face with his hands and sobbing again.
His expression was exactly like a frightened person, sending chills down Luo Yi's spine.
Fortunately, he still had the ability to "identify.
" [Type: Plague Demon]
[Ability: Camouflage]
[Danger Level: F]
[Remember this website's domain name: Taiwan Novel Network →🅣🅦🅚🅐🅝.🅒🅞🅜]
(Note: Specialized in mimicking human behavior, feigning pity to gain sympathy.)
Oh my goodness, it's a zombie indeed, a mutant with special abilities.
Luo Yi's eyes turned cold.
Since this whole family has become monsters, why not send them down to reunite? It would be a good deed.
With a thought, the sharp knife flew out, piercing Xiaoyu's arm directly.
Taking advantage of the moment the little creature let go in pain, Luo Yi swiftly stepped forward and thrust his spear, pinning the feigningly pitiful little monster to the wall.
[Congratulations to the host for killing the Plague Demon for the first time and obtaining a special F-rank treasure chest~]
With storage space, the reward automatically went inside, and the small treasure chest lay quietly in a corner.
After looting the household's supplies, Luo Yi dragged the three bodies back to their respective bedrooms before returning to Rong Wanqi's residence.
"Keep these snacks for now. They'll be good for when you're hungry."
Luo Yi selected some long-lasting food and handed it to her, taking her hand in his.
Opening a treasure chest, this time, really depends on this girl's luck.
Unexpectedly, Rong Wanqi actually saw the treasure chest this time, and her eyes widened in surprise.
Although full of questions, she sensibly kept silent and obediently opened the box.
Unfortunately, even the best luck proved that low-level prize pools didn't yield any valuables.
Luo Yi weighed the black metal stick he had unsheathed;
it felt heavy. Swinging it with all his might, he could probably smash a zombie's head like a watermelon.
The stick was less than a meter long, its handle wrapped in non-slip tape, making it quite comfortable to hold.
He tried swinging it a few times, then casually tossed the crude spear he had used into the space.
After killing five zombies, Luo Yi had mastered the art.
Compared to a heavy spear, this black stick was more maneuverable and more lethal.
Luo Yi repeatedly urged Rong Wanqi to lock the door before pushing open the heavy iron door to the stairwell.
The overwhelming darkness was unnerving. The usually sensitive sound-activated lights were now lifeless, and the entire staircase seemed to have been swallowed by a black hole.
He held the flashlight in his left hand, gripping the black stick tightly in his right, taking each step with extreme caution.
The flashlight's beam cast a thin line of light in the darkness, illuminating the floating dust.
Fortunately, there was no foul smell in the stairwell, which meant that no zombies had sneaked in yet.
The "thump, thump" sound of footsteps was particularly harsh in the silence, and Luo Yi's heart was in his throat.
But he finally reached the seventh floor without any danger.
He turned off the flashlight and put his ear to the fire door to listen carefully.
There was no "ho ho" sound that was unique to zombies, so it seemed safe.
He pushed the door open carefully. The corridor was empty, much cleaner than the mess on the eighth floor.
"Dong, dong" - the black stick knocked on the door of Room 701 with a dull sound.
After waiting for a long time, there was no movement from inside.
Luo Yi had a clue in his mind and did not rush to pick the lock. He turned around and went to Room 702 to check the situation.
As soon as he reached the door, he heard a "bang" from inside.
As expected, the knocking had already attracted the zombies inside to the door.
The door had barely cracked open when Luo Yi's black staff came crashing down with a whistling sound.
With a crisp "crack," the zombie's head popped open like a ripe watermelon.
Awesome!
This felt amazing!
Though it was just a weapon from an F-rank treasure chest, it was more than enough to deal with ordinary zombies.
Luo Yi repeated the same trick, wiping out the zombies in four households in one fell swoop.
Just as he finished off the last one, he felt a sudden sense of relief as a pleasant notification chimed in:
[Congratulations, Host, Upgrade to E-rank~]
[Name: Luo Yi]
[Combat Power: 183]
[Favorability: 60]
[Special Abilities: Telekinesis, Storage Space]
[Current Level: E]
(Telekinesis Upgrade Description: Now can manipulate objects up to 5 kilograms, with an effective range of 8 meters.)
A warm current surged through Luo Yi's body, and he felt his strength increase significantly. Even his thoughts became exceptionally clear.
At that moment, Xiao Ai's sudden words filled him with even greater joy.
After the host evolves to E-rank, their powers are strengthened, unlocking the new ability of "Power Granting"!
The host can now share their powers with women with whom they have had intimate relationships, but these women will be one level lower than the host, and they can withdraw this power at any time.
While this ability doesn't offer any substantial benefits to Luo Yi himself, it does provide an extra layer of security for the women around him.
He had previously worried about how to protect them once his team expanded, but now, he's finally getting a pillow whenever he wants.
Even better, this power could be withdrawn at any time, without the worry of any woman daring to rebel.
Raised in an orphanage, he'd been devoid of love.
While his mother and aunt in this world offered him warmth, the absence of a father figure left him feeling insecure and empty.
That's why, when Rong Wanqi made overt and covert advances, he remained unresponsive, like a block of wood.
Subconsciously, he simply didn't believe anyone would treat him well without a reason.
Looking back, he was truly insensitive back then.
When it comes to women, you can pamper them, but not dote on them without limits.
If you give in to them unconditionally, they'll eventually take over.
He shook off the sticky blood stains on the black stick and walked towards the door of Room 701.
Room 701 was silent; either no one was there, or someone was deliberately hiding and keeping quiet.
Luo Yi knocked on the door again with the black stick, but still received no response. Too lazy to wait, he simply pried the lock open.
The door had barely cracked open when a kitchen knife lashed down, glancing past his helmet!
Inside was a panicked middle-aged man, knife clutched, shouting, "Get out! Get out of my house!"
Luo Yi narrowed his eyes and was about to close the door when his peripheral vision caught sight of a mountain of supplies piled high in the living room.
Several large boxes of food, drinks, even self-heating hot pots and rice and noodles.
The man's expression suddenly changed, and with a sudden fury, he swung the knife at Luo Yi's right hand.
Luo Yi stepped back, releasing the black stick.
The next second, the black stick, controlled by telekinesis, soared into the air.
Before the man could react, the stick spun violently and struck him in the face, denting his facial bones.
The middle-aged man was killed instantly, and the black stick flew back into Luo Yi's hands, where he caught it firmly.
He had thought he would feel guilty for killing a living person for the first time, but in reality, he felt no wavering at all.
It was just like killing a zombie.
