Apocalypse: Launching a Counterattack Against the Villainess

Page 45

When they saw the other person looking over, the three boys in the corner immediately knelt down on the ground, wailing and begging for mercy.

Nie Qingyun wasn't a heartless butcher, so he naturally didn't intend to kill them. However, he needed to keep these people quiet.

So after a simple intimidation, the methods were exactly the same as when they dealt with Wang Hezhichao.

After finishing, they took some food from the warehouse and threw it to the group.

He said coldly, under the other party's tearful gaze:

"Once I open the back door, the zombies at the front door will be attracted here."

"And the three of you are responsible for leading away the rest of the zombies in this corridor."

“I have prepared defensive fortifications near the fire escape ladder, so it won’t be difficult for you.”

The three of them dared not utter a word of dissent. After seeing Nie Qingyun's ruthless appearance, they were already grateful enough for being let go.

After everything was ready, the group took their positions.

As Nie Qingyun opened the back door, the zombies that had been surrounding the doorway immediately surged into the classroom.

At the same time, the other three boys also took advantage of the gap to run out through the front door, and carefully closed the door for Nie Qingyun.

The nanobots inside his body were still playing their final role, and these ordinary zombies were no different from cutting melons and vegetables to Nie Qingyun.

However, he forgot that there was a young lady standing facing the wall on the inside of the classroom.

It seemed that the wait had been too long, and Cheng Yuqiu couldn't help but curiously move her little hand away. Then she heard a "bang bang" sound behind her and subconsciously turned around.

The next second, her eyes widened as she witnessed a scene she would never forget.

It was a sharp triangular dagger, its blade flashing with elegant flourishes as it raged wildly through the horde of corpses, as if painting a picture with blood...

When she came to her senses, the girl was already in tears.

She had never experienced love and didn't know what that lingering feeling in her heart was.

All she knew was that this man had once again taken on all the dangers alone.

He always does.

He always takes on everything without saying a word.

They always cause people to worry, and they say things that make people blush and their hearts race.

Yet it is surprisingly reliable.

In contrast to those rich kids who easily push their companions into the abyss when faced with danger.

Nie Qingyun was as dazzling and brilliant as the Milky Way in the night sky.

The girl's heart couldn't help but flutter slightly.

For a fleeting moment, she even had the absurd thought that "the apocalypse isn't so bad after all."

Compared to the hypocrisy and lies that surround us in our daily lives, everything now feels so real.

Suddenly, Cheng Yuqiu's heart burned with intense emotion. He grabbed the chair beside him and looked at Nie Qingyun with a fierce gaze:

"Me too, I'll help you!"

Then, with a "thud," he fell to the ground.

Nie Qingyun, who was playing the role of "Fruit Ninja", was startled when he heard the voice behind him.

Only then did he remember that the young lady was still in the classroom.

He immediately kicked the zombie in front of him five or six meters away, then turned around and pulled the girl up.

Without saying a word, he pushed the other person into the warehouse and slammed the door shut.

"You, you let me out!"

"No, come in quickly!"

"Nie Qingyun!"

"You big bastard!!"

From behind the door came a series of anxious shouts from a young girl, her voice growing increasingly urgent, and within seconds her voice became quite hoarse.

Nie Qingyun could hear the anxiety and concern in the other person's voice.

But he could only shake his head helplessly and continue clearing the zombies.

He had to wipe out all the zombies in the classroom before the nanobots' side effects took effect, so that there would be a safe environment for resurrection.

Furthermore, Cheng Yuqiu must not be allowed to know the secret about the resurrection.

This has nothing to do with trust. In this world, there are countless strange and wonderful skills that can be used to obtain information about others. The more people who know, the more danger there is.

A few minutes later, dozens of corpses appeared in the lecture hall.

Nie Qingyun didn't have time to collect the [Primordial Crystal]. After slamming the door shut, he stumbled and leaned against the warehouse door.

The girl's desperate screams could still be heard from behind the door.

Nie Qingyun couldn't bear to listen any longer. After pressing the triangular dagger against his heart, he adjusted his tone and spoke:

"He's not dead yet..."

The sounds from behind the door paused, then became more urgent.

"How are you doing!"

"Come in quickly!"

"I beg you!"

"don't want……"

"Don't always leave me alone..."

Despite his unusual childhood experiences, Nie Qingyun is not particularly interested in romantic relationships.

But hearing that a young lady like Cheng Yuqiu cares so much about him is still a happy thing.

But Nie Qingyun was used to putting on an aloof and cold exterior to protect herself.

The words of comfort that came out of my mouth changed.

"It wouldn't matter if I died..."

"certainly not!"

A girl's voice immediately came from the doorway.

"You're not allowed to die!"

"I beg you……"

“We…you’ve only just become someone’s bodyguard…”

"If you die... wouldn't everything we have become a tragedy..."

"what is this……"

"I do not want it!"

“A tragedy…” Nie Qingyun repeated in a low voice, his breathing becoming heavy, the side effects of the nanobots had begun to take effect.

Everyone dies alone. This is the ultimate truth of life. No matter who you are or what you have been through, this outcome cannot be changed.

"Speaking of which, I'm quite grateful to those artists for inventing 'tragedy'."

"In a way, it's a kind of practice."

"It makes us realize early on how important life is."

"It gives us the courage to face the inevitable failure and death. With understanding and care for humanity, it transforms the pain of separation and the emptiness after destruction into a series of romantic and warm stories."

But these are ultimately all illusions...

Nie Qingyun had intended to say that, but the image of that tear-filled, pretty face behind the door flashed through his mind, so he smiled gently and said:

"And romance is something more beautiful than life and death..."

"So hurry up and open the door!" Cheng Yuqiu was already sobbing uncontrollably.

Nie Qingyun didn't want to keep the girl waiting any longer, so he slowly tightened his grip on the dagger.

"You really didn't have any guard up against me at all..."

"Aren't you afraid I'll do something lewd to you once I'm inside?"

There was suddenly silence behind the door.

A faint murmur followed:

"It's...it's not impossible..."

"However, you have to listen to me... When I say stop, you, you're not allowed to move..."

At this point, the girl paused, then became somewhat flustered:

"You, you mustn't misunderstand, it's not because I like you or anything!"

"It's only right to occasionally reward guards who are loyal to their duties..."

"Huh?!" Nie Qingyun's hand suddenly stopped.

He only meant to joke and ease the tension, but he didn't expect the young lady to actually... actually agree?

Since you're saying that, I won't hold back...

Thinking of this, Nie Qingyun suddenly exerted force in his hand and promptly stabbed himself.

notification

I'll be working all night again tonight, but even if I have to sneak into the bathroom, I'll still update before dawn.

I'm so sorry everyone, I was temporarily assigned to work outside by the company.

Sigh, life...it's so helpless.

Chapter Sixty: The Night of White Turbidity

“Nie Qingyun…”

The girl's voice was faint and elusive. Nie Qingyun's thoughts remained in a hazy state for an unknown period of time before suddenly settling into his body.

As he slowly opened his eyes, the calls around him became clearer.

The classroom was pitch black, with a beam of moonlight streaming in through a broken window not far away.

The congealed blood reflected a faint light.

Stimulated by the surrounding stench of blood, Nie Qingyun regained consciousness much faster than usual.

Once the jumbled memories were pieced together, he sprang to his feet and instinctively searched for weapons around him.

He breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the corpses lying around him.

He turned around, stood facing the door for a while, and then hesitantly knocked on the door with his finger.

"that……"

"The danger outside has been dealt with. Are you... alright?"

No sooner had he finished speaking than a series of hurried footsteps came from behind the door, followed by a loud banging on the iron door.

"Nie Qingyun!"

"How are you? How are you?"

Why weren't you saying anything the whole time?

"Open the door quickly!"

Nie Qingyun could tell that the girl's concern was genuine.

That's why he hesitated.

Social skills are never a simple subject.

Once you acknowledge that someone has entered your heart, you become very cautious in your behavior.

Especially regarding the other party.
