Chapter 4: The Horror of being Wrecked by a Zombie
Translator: Noodletown Translations Editor: Noodletown Translations
It was a world perfect for warriors!
Wang Tai controlled Chris, who had a dagger in his hand, as he quietly moved to the corner of the room.
On the other side of the wall, the zombie was still standing there with its back toward Wang Tai as it was munching on the leftover pieces of a corpse on the ground.
As if it slled the fresh scent of a living human, the zombie slowly turned around, exposing its pale, gross, lifeless face that had specks of flesh and blood still on the corners of its mouth!
That was the famous ‘Turning Around Zombie’ from the original Resident Evil!
However, what was different was that in the original ga, the zombie was computer generated, allowing the player to watch this zombie’s movents before fighting it.
Yet, at this mont, the zombie seed so real that it felt like it was standing right in front of Wang Tai!
The zombie’s gross face, paired with the darkly-lit room and oppressing surroundings, was incredibly scary, justifying Wang Tai’s previous reaction and quick death.
Many people were terrified of this scene from Resident Evil!
Fang Qi had watched it many tis before and had beco immune to it. However, this scene still left a newbie like Wang Tai so horrified that his hands began to shake.
Unkillable with powerful physical strength and no sense of pain, when had ordinary people ever encountered this kind of monster?
He had never seen a monster as scary as this one!
Although it was still the sa ga from the 1990s, the freedom and realness of VR would overload the players’ senses, making the ga much better than the original version.
A strong sense of excitent and nervousness drove Wang Tai’s adrenaline through the roof as he dashed toward the zombie with the dagger in his hand, a hint of anticipation among his fear!
This ti, he perford better than he did previously. He held the dagger tight in his hands and pushed it deep into the zombie’s chest!
But, he made one crucial mistake.
He wasn’t Fang Qi; how could he have known that one had to destroy the zombie’s head to kill it!
Not only did his attack fail to kill the zombie, but it also provoked its urge to kill. With a furious howl, it charged towards Wang Tai like crazy!
After humans turned into zombies, they would gain imnse strength and beco two-to-three tis stronger than regular n. Therefore, the zombie imdiately pushed Wang Tai to the ground and bit at the artery on his neck with its yellow teeth!
“Why can’t I kill this monster?” Wang Tai scread crazily; he had stabbed the zombie in a vital spot, but it didn’t die. Not only that, why did it also go berserk?
The good thing was, he wasn’t as inexperienced as he was last ti, and he prepared himself ntally this ti around. He quickly stopped the zombie’s bite with his hand but was imdiately left on the defensive.
Wang Tai pushed the zombie’s neck back with one hand so that it wouldn’t bite him, and he then pushed his dagger into the zombie’s temple repeatedly and ferociously with the other hand!
Soon, the zombie finally lost its strength and slowly fell to the floor.
“It’s finally dead!” Wang Tai replayed the horror this gross monster brought upon him in his head as he breathed heavily. Being able to kill an undead monster with such insane strength gave him more exhilaration than fright! He felt a strong sense of achievent blossoming from the bottom of his heart!
He was a warrior! Moreover, so many people in this world were born to admire power and bravery! Being able to kill a powerful monster validated his pride! It felt aweso!
After climbing up from the floor, he looked around but didn’t see anything worth looking into. Therefore, he turned around to leave.
Is that horrendous monster the ‘zombie’ Qi was talking about? At that mont, Wang Tai developed a strong sense of interest in this ga. It was such a weird and unique ga with monsters that he had never even heard of. He had never seen a world like this in the novels, so he was eager to find out what else this world contained.
He couldn’t wait to keep looking around!
These monsters are super strong. I’m glad I can go back into the ga after dying.Wang Tai complained about how hard the ga was. After all, all new players had to first be wrecked by the zombies before learning how to deal with them.
Suddenly, Wang Tai saw a semi-invisible white ball of mist leave the zombie and enter his body, imdiately giving him a warm and comfortable sensation. Then, he noticed that his strength grew as well!
– After a while –
After killing his first zombie, Wang Tai quickly killed a few more before finally figuring out that he had to destroy the zombies’ heads. Then, he picked up a handgun he found in the lobby and killed a few more zombies.
He was overjoyed by the challenges he faced and the adrenaline rushes he got from the horror; although zombies were powerful and scary, he always felt a sense of achievent when killing them!
Suddenly, a ssage popped out on the computer screen. [Dear custor, your balance is insufficient, please pay to continue.]
“That’s it?” Wang Tai removed the VR headset and jumped up from his chair. “Fine, I admit that this ga is really fun; I would consider playing it for one or two crystals, but seven? It’s such a rip-off!” Although he was already addicted to this ga, his seven crystals were supposed to be used to bribe the proctors tomorrow!
If it were any other day, he might pay that amount. However, that money was not for spending on irrelevant matters!
Wang Tai’s face beca twisted before he even finished his rant.
Fang Qi exited his own ga to see Wang Tai’s expression. “Do you feel it?”
“Feel...?” Wang Tai waved his fists in the air and kicked his legs. Then, his face beca even more twisted. “How did my strength and speed both improve? What happened?”
“Both improved? Did you level up?” Fang Qi wasn’t surprised. He opened Wang Tai’s player interface and saw the small ‘Lv 2′ in front of the experience bar under Chris’s avatar.
There was no such thing as levels in the original Resident Evil One, but the one the system provided him with was a little different. The characters inside could level up, and their strength, reaction speed, and other aspects would also increase! Moreover, this increase would also be reflected in the players themselves!
This was the true greatness of the system’s black technology!
Wang Tai was flabbergasted!
He was still in the Body-Forging Realm, aning that he was still a warrior-in-training. A comprehensive increase in his combat ability ant that he would be able to beco an official warrior much faster!
There was another benefit to playing this ga.
Since Lingyun Academy’s entrance examinations were tomorrow, he might be accepted if his strength increased even more!
Not only was this ga new, fun, exhilarating, and addictive, it was also capable of enhancing his strength!
Warriors had to practice martial arts tediously and rigorously temper their bodies over and over again in order to achieve the sa benefits.
Playing this ga, he felt like he had beco the main character in a novel; he was literally adventure-seeking in another world! What an amazing and magical feeling!
Most importantly, he felt so happy when he figured out the monsters’ weaknesses and subsequently defeated them!
A ga this aweso could be used to enhance his strength? He wouldn’t have anything else to worry about since he didn’t need to bribe the proctors anymore!
It was so f*cking aweso!
Although he didn’t know which cultivator created this great thing, it now seed like two crystals per hour was not expensive; instead, it was almost too cheap!
After letting go of his real-life worries, Wang Tai, a native in this world, finally understood the beauty of the ga!
But, he touched his nearly-empty pocket...
In there was so money he needed for tomorrow’s examination expenses!
He imdiately pulled Fang Qi over and whispered quietly, “Qi, I need to discuss sothing with you. If I play here a few more hours, can you... give a discount?”
He knew that bribing proctors might not work. Also, making a last-minute effort of going ho and practicing martial arts was super boring and useless; he really didn’t want to do it.
It was much better to play a couple hours of gas here.
Fang Qi, on the other hand, sighed and shook his head. “It’s not that I don’t want to give you a discount; I can’t.”
Then, he pointed at the little blackboard by the entrance. “It doesn’t say ‘discounts’ on there.”
“But... Qi, we’re best buddies; how can you be so stingy?” Wang Tai was imdiately infuriated.
“If I am stingy, I wouldn’t have given you pointers.” One could only understand the beauty of this ga by experiencing it for themselves. Fang Qi didn’t like spoilers; therefore, he thought that he was already being pretty generous by giving hints and background information to Wang Tai just now.
“I wouldn’t have helped anyone else,” he added.
Upon seeing how resolute Fang Qi was, Wang Tai had no choice but to give up. He asked with a slightly disappointed tone, “Can I at least pay you tomorrow?”
Fang Qi didn’t reply; instead, he glanced over at the blackboard again.
Imdiately understanding what he ant, Wang Tai muttered under his breath, “You’re such a d*ck.”
Then, he threw a few crystals onto the desk. “Let the ga continue!”
