Chapter 1316: Hot-Blooded College Guy, Online Zombie Slaying 38

From the end of Pan Shan Gong Lu to the deep mountain farm, it's still over twenty minutes on foot.

It is precisely because of this time difference that, when the old doctor's team arrived at the cliff, not only did they not see Jin Chen's corpse as the messenger assassin had said, but they also saw Jin Chen's corpse.

Moreover, even the zombies they had sent to slaughter were nowhere to be found; only upon approaching did they discover they had turned into a pile of meat paste.

The assassin disguised as Li Si's wife found Li Si's corpse in a pit clearly above ground level, the corpse with one hand outstretched, a broken finger inserted upside down.

"There's writing here!"

The assassin frowned tightly, already having a bad premonition in his heart.

Wei Xian, who had been recruited by the laboratory, squatted down and carefully identified the words written with a twig in the soil.

"You... are going to die?!"

"Swish!"

Just as his words fell, a huge net used for trapping beasts descended from the sky.

"Ahhhh!"

Wei Xian was covered by the huge net, which tightened, and within a few breaths he was lifted up into the tree.

"Hehe, today's a big harvest!"

Ru Yue, wearing a neat riding outfit, grabbed the hook tightening the huge net and hung it on the cableway.

"You're also quite fortunate; normally such treatment is only enjoyed by captured wild beasts."

Ru Yue still resented Wei Xian for planning to use her and her sister as bargaining chips to win people over.

"Now that you're on my turf, watch how I play you to death!"

——

The doctor's team finally realized Li Si's mission had failed; the people in the farm already knew their purpose for this trip.

The old doctor leaned on his cane, standing at the center of the team, looking up at Wei Xian trapped in the huge net, unable to break free, his face grim to the extreme.

"Fire!"

The hoarse voice was mixed with killing intent, his eyes devoid of any humanity.

The assassins following the team immediately opened fire and shot; Ru Yue hurriedly jumped down from the tree, shoved Wei Xian's frantically struggling body, and used his body to block the bullets.

"You brats, your grandfather is here!"

Chu Shu poked his head out from another large tree, cupped his hands like a megaphone and shouted, "Hey hey hey!! Which brat came to your grandfather's turf?"

Several assassins then turned in unison and fired at that tree.

Within a few seconds, a shout came from a large tree on the left front, so angry it could make one die of resentment.

Zhou Xuan extended a branch with a red cloth tied to it, saying, "Come on~ You're too slow~"

"Damn!"

Several assassins were so angry smoke seemed to rise from their heads; the continuous gunfire, amplified by the valley's echo, became extraordinarily chaotic, making it impossible to tell who was where on which tree.

The people behind the team brought Wei Xian down; he had just been recruited not long ago and suffered a setback here, and when he returns the doctor may blame him in who knows what way.

Wei Xian drew his broadsword, having no intention of bothering with the irrelevant people in the trees, and charged toward the farm.

"Don't mind them! It's just a blindfold tactic! Jin Chen is definitely still in the farm!"

"Come on! Follow me!"

Full of vigor, but the next second both person and sword fell into the pit.

Inside the pit there was also a black ox that had been put in; it had been peacefully eating grass before being thrown in, and was already angry when a stranger collided with it, sending it sideways.

The angry black ox bellowed, charging at Wei Xian's weakest point, his belly; its force was so great that Wei Xian couldn't get up for a while, and after several blows the smell of blood from his belly rose to his throat.

"You're looking for me?"

Jin Chen's voice, laced with a smile, came from above the pit; Wei Xian strained to look up, gritting his teeth, "You damn beast!"

His furious cursing only earned him a light, carefree mockery in return.

"The beast is right beside you; after surviving the apocalypse this long without being killed by zombies, dying like this is pretty pathetic."

Jin Chen threw in a piece of red cloth.

"Moo!!"

The black ox continued to butt at Wei Xian, treating the swaying object and his hiding place as provocation, refusing to stop until it knocked him down.

Jin Chen looked down coldly; seeing Wei Xian persist in desperate resistance, he suddenly asked a question.

"Wei Xian, isn't the one at your house about to die? Otherwise why would you join such a broken laboratory?"

As soon as the question was posed, Wei Xian, dazed from the impact, regained clear vision and burst with intense killing intent, "You damn shut up!"

But this only accelerated his death.

Jin Chen shook his head and sighed, "How nice it would be to live in peace; you insist on coming out just to feel existent."

"Those who dare to kill the solitary one shall be executed!"

"Jin Ge!! Come help, ahhhh!"

Zhou Xuan, frightened, scrambled about; no matter how mighty his aura, he feared bullets!

"Classmate Jin, let's make a deal, how about it?"

Under the protection of the assassin squad, the old doctor slowly walked to Jin Chen's side, but his gaze fell on Jiang Chen.

Jin Chen frowned, stepped in front of Jiang Chen, his tone edged.

"Who said we're classmates? At your age, pretending to be young."

The old doctor wasn't annoyed either; he raised his hand to stop the assassins behind him who wanted to step forward.

"That old man, I'll speak plainly: this time I went up the mountain not only bringing assassins, but also bringing enough zombies to destroy the entire farm."

"If you don't want to die, then hand over Su Shan, and besides..."

The old doctor's sinister gaze fell on Jiang Chen, "Please, this doctor friend, come to our laboratory as a guest."

Jin Chen still had a smile on his face, but his voice was cold; in the old professor's expectant gaze, he spat out three words in standard Mandarin of a second-tier university student.

Go die.

Old professor: "..."

After being repeatedly mocked and provoked, even a good pretense can't hold, and the expression slips.

The old professor's sinister expression, like a venomous toad, dropped its pretense: "Then don't blame me for being impolite!"

Capture Jiang Chen and Su Shan!

Upon hearing the order, the assassin squad first surrounded Jin Chen.

At the same time, the crystal-element whistle in their throats, with sound waves almost undetectable to human ears, summoned the zombies.

Once zombies gain consciousness, they become easier to control; this is, since the apocalypse began, the old professor considers it his greatest invention.

Jin Chen was surrounded by the assassin squad; at first he could still protect Jiang Chen while retreating toward the farm, but the assassin squad's strength was lacking, yet their skill in relentless, entangling attacks was top-notch.

So annoying.

Jin Chen stopped retreating, muttered, let go of Jiang Chen's hand, and intended to kill them all.

Turning around, he heard Jiang Chen's reminder to stay safe, stole a moment to kiss his cheek, and said, "Don't worry."

After saying that, he put away his useless close-combat gun and swiftly drew his dagger.

The two separated, and the old professor immediately waved toward the darkness, a sinister curl of his lips.

These ordinary college students, even with a leader, could never stir up any trouble.

The zombies controlled by the special sound waves darted out from the corner, rushing straight at Jiang Chen to grab him.

Chen bro! Be careful!

Jiang Chen heard Chu Shu's shout from the tree, only then realizing seven or eight zombies, teeth bared and claws waving, were scrambling up from the earth pit blocked by leaves.

His heart tightened, he retreated as fast as possible, gripping his dagger tightly.

Don't you dare take Chen bro!!

Zhou Xuan and Chu Shu climbed down from the tree to help, vowing to defend their Jin bro's love to the death.

Ru Meng and Ru Yue set traps near the farm, temporarily unable to help.

The three fought the zombies in a mêlée; even though they had been in the apocalypse for a long time, facing zombies mutated from humans, they still felt that deep-seated repulsion and fear.

On the other side, Jin Chen was made irritable and distracted by the assassins' shameless, entangling fighting style, his strikes becoming faster and faster.

Seeing the assassin squad about to be wiped out, the old professor finally grew wary, once again summoning zombies to quickly capture Jiang Chen.

Chen bro!!

Chu Shu, seeing the assassin fall upside down from the tree, was shocked in his heart, but realized it was too late to warn.

Zhou Xuan, trying to rush over, was even more blocked by the zombies, nearly getting hit in the back.

Jiang Chen's attention was entirely on dealing with the zombies; when he heard the sound, a needle had already been thrust into the back of his neck, and even if he could dodge faster, it couldn't overcome the potent sedative's effect.

In the instant his consciousness was rapidly fading, Jiang Chen was looking toward Jin Chen's direction.

Jiang Chen suddenly collapsed, losing consciousness.

Take him away! It's not urgent to come search Su Shan later.

According to the data, this doctor is a real treasure; he will surely help advance the experiment.
