"Help, help!"
As Wang Yu placed the corpse worms into a black plastic bag, he heard a cry from his right.
A man ran towards Wang Yu, with two zombies chasing him.
His face was filled with terror, but his eyes radiated hope.
It was as if he had seen a ray of hope for survival.
He had just run down from the upstairs and saw Wang Yu holding a long sword, with a headless corpse lying beside him.
Without a second thought, he ran towards Wang Yu.
Wang Yu stood in place, watching the man run behind him with a cold expression.
In comparison, the zombies were much slower.
The zombies had not evolved yet, so although they were strong, their speed was average.
They couldn't even run, only walk quickly.
Naturally, they couldn't catch up to humans running desperately under the pressure of survival.
As the two zombies lunged at Wang Yu one after another, the man flinched back a couple of steps in fear.
Due to his line of sight, he only saw Wang Yu raise his long sword at an extremely fast speed, then swing it twice quickly.
It didn't seem to carry much force.
But the heads of the two zombies flew off, and their bodies immediately fell to the ground.
"Holy… Holy crap!"
"Brother, you're way too fierce!!"
His eyes widened, and he excitedly grabbed Wang Yu's arm.
Wang Yu frowned and shook off his hand.
"You're safe now, just find an empty room and stay put."
He squatted down and continued to dig for corpse worms.
"Brother, my name is Chen Youting, I… ugh!"
Seeing Wang Yu squat down, the man also squatted down to strike up a conversation.
Who knew he would see Wang Yu digging into a zombie's head with a dagger? That scene… immediately made him nauseous and he vomited.
Wang Yu gave him a cold glance.
That one glance immediately stopped Chen Youting from vomiting.
The gaze was truly chilling. He didn't know if this was the legendary killing intent.
But he had a feeling that if he continued to vomit, his fate might be the same as the zombies lying on the ground…
Wang Yu didn't want to dig for corpse worms, but he remembered a research breakthrough from a year later in his previous life.
Besides the worm crystals that zombies would evolve later, the corpse worms in the early stages of the apocalypse could also help humans evolve.
It's just that in his previous life, no one was so perverse as to dig out the worms from zombie heads as soon as they appeared.
This… was somewhat unimaginable.
And seven days later, all zombies would evolve into Level 1, and corpse worms would turn into worm crystals.
By then, even if someone wanted to eat corpse worms to enhance their strength, they wouldn't be able to.
Seeing Wang Yu dig out two worms from the zombie's head, Chen Youting found it utterly bizarre.
"Brother, what is this? How can there be such big worms in a person's head?"
His voice trembled slightly, afraid of angering Wang Yu.
Wang Yu ignored him.
Because the other corpses in the corridor had all gotten up.
"Heh, so you're alive, are you? Then you can die!"
Wang Yu's gaze sharpened, and he held his long sword and advanced.
In a narrow terrain like a corridor, a long sword was not as easy to wield.
But Wang Yu was no ordinary person; he had fought in the apocalypse for four years.
His combat skills were already ingrained in his bones.
He was proficient in various martial arts and ordinary weapons like swords and sabers.
Coupled with his current 1.5 times physique, a few zombies were no match for him.
In Chen Youting's eyes, every move Wang Yu made seemed perfect.
The sword rose and fell, flowing like water.
Each strike was a killing blow, and as the long sword sliced through the zombies' necks, their heads would fall off.
Especially his footwork, which always narrowly avoided the zombies' attacks.
He never moved an inch more, making one's heart pound.
Within a few breaths, five zombies lay on the ground, and there was no complete corpse in this corridor anymore.
This scene not only shocked Chen Youting but also the girls' dormitory building opposite.
Some lucky survivors hiding in their rooms were observing the situation from their balconies and happened to witness this scene.
"Wow! Who is that? So amazing!"
"That's so cool, with a swift chop, no hesitation at all!"
"Too awesome! Not only is their martial arts skills high, but they also look very handsome. If only he came to save me, I could be his girlfriend!"
"Hmph! Someone like you, how could he possibly like you? If he were to choose, he'd choose me!"
…
Most of the girls who saw this scene were relatively normal and didn't make much noise.
But a few of them actually stood on their balconies and shouted for Wang Yu to save them.
"Truly courting death."
Wang Yu merely glanced up, then paid them no more attention.
He was about to continue digging for corpse worms.
"Hey, big brother! I'll help you. I'm quite strong, so leave this rough work to me."
Chen Youting summoned his courage and approached Wang Yu, a fawning smile on his face, appearing more enthusiastic than someone helping an old lady cross the road.
He had figured it out. Wang Yu was definitely a martial artist, with incredibly powerful individual strength.
If he followed Wang Yu, he wouldn't have to fear zombies anymore.
Wang Yu gave him a cold look and handed him his dagger, "Don't ruin them."
"Yes, yes, yes, don't worry!"
Taking the dagger, he began to diligently dig for corpse worms.
He didn't know until he tried it himself, this job was so… disgusting.
Ugh!
He threw up again, but he was digging while vomiting.
He didn't dare to put down his work at all.
Wang Yu watched from the side, gaining a bit of respect for Chen Youting.
This person not only recognized the situation and seized the opportunity to latch onto a strong patron.
He also had good psychological resilience.
Considering that zombies had only appeared a few minutes ago, and Chen Youting could tolerate the disgusting act of digging for corpse worms.
It showed he possessed extraordinary endurance.
This kind of person was among the first to adapt to the apocalypse.
"Big brother, I'm done."
"Hmm, you can follow me for now. Here's this long sword for self-defense."
Wang Yu took the five corpse worms handed to him by Chen Youting and gave him his long sword.
The dagger naturally remained in his hand.
Chen Youting wanted Wang Yu's protection, while Wang Yu needed someone to be his laborer.
Each got what they needed.
"Big brother, you're giving me the weapons, then what about you…"
Wang Yu took out another long sword from his storage ring and held it in his hand. "What did you say?"
"Nothing, nothing." Chen Youting's pupils contracted, and he quickly shook his head.
Good heavens, what kind of trick was this?
Making a long sword appear out of thin air?
He was actually quite talkative before, but after witnessing Wang Yu's prowess and mystery.
He absolutely dared not ask any more questions.
In Wang Yu's storage ring now, besides a good sword worth ten thousand,
There were also many ordinary long swords and sabers.
Since he had money, he naturally bought more.
Not only in his storage ring, but there were also many cold weapons in the secret realm.
All of which would be useful in the future.
For the next period, Wang Yu led Chen Youting to clear all the rooms on the second floor.
Of course, only the rooms that could be opened, he didn't bother with the ones that couldn't be opened for now.
After all, zombies couldn't open doors.
Although Wang Yu could use a fire axe to forcefully break them open.
But the current situation was clearly not suitable.
Wang Yu only had 1.5 times his normal physique, and breaking down doors would consume some strength.
Furthermore, the sound of breaking doors would be too loud and might attract zombies from upstairs and downstairs.
Continuing upwards, they soon cleared the zombies on the third floor.
Then came the fourth, fifth, and sixth floors.
Some floors had fewer zombies as many students were in class.
Some floors were densely packed with zombies.
When there were many zombies, Wang Yu would use wind to envelop his entire body.
This not only increased his movement speed during combat but also saved energy.
Otherwise, facing over twenty zombies at once would be quite strenuous, and he might even get minor injuries.
Of course, the act of one person taking on over twenty zombies completely stunned the girls' dormitory building opposite.
