As soon as ng Xu stepped outside, he saw the half-bodied zombie nearby still struggling desperately.
Without any hesitation, he raised his ‘improvised spear’ and thrust it viciously into the zombie’s back, also tossing a leaflet into the bloody ss, saying, “Sir, did you hear ? How about swimming fitness?”
After stabbing three or four tis, ng Xu noticed that the zombie was still incredibly resilient, so he ceased the pointless attack.
Any seasoned zombie hunter knows that a zombie’s weak point is the head—only a headshot can kill a zombie. Through this experint, ng Xu confird this fact.
It seems a headshot is truly the only way to kill a zombie.
In his view, he could quickly identify the status of the struggling zombie.
【Occupation: Zombie】
【Level: 0】
【Affection Level: -50】
Undoubtedly, this was that sa colleague from next door.
The affection level was minus fifty, indicating that although this half-bodied zombie had so hesitation towards ng Xu, it would still attack him if given the chance.
If it still had its full body, who knows what kind of fierce battle might ensue.
ng Xu turned his attention to the remaining office that he had not yet entered.
Inside, there appeared to be two zombies wandering around.
One was a balding middle-aged programr, and the other was a delivery guy in uniform, evidently eting an unfortunate end while delivering a package, leading to their transformation.
These two were confined in the last office on the fourth floor. Unable to open the door, they could only repeatedly bang against the walls, causing so commotion.
However…
Using ‘Reading the Room,’ ng Xu noticed sothing distinctive.
Unlike Chi Wei and Manager Zhang, these two did not have an affection level system—whether positive or negative, they had no indicators at all, not even a zero.
There’s no affection level displayed at all.
“What does this an? Why don’t they have the affection level option? Could it be because they aren’t related to the system’s issued tasks?”
ng Xu furrowed his brows, pondering.
What made it even more concerning for ng Xu was that these zombies had a level.
If it stayed at a constant level 0, it would be one thing, but what if there are higher levels in the future?
The thought was enough to give him a headache.
“This world is just too abnormal.”
ng Xu sighed deeply, looking over at Chi Wei and Manager Zhang, who were tied in the elevator lobby on the fourth floor, and said to them, “Don’t you agree?”
Either the world or I must be crazy.
I clock in at work on ti, do so part-ti leaflet distribution, enjoy chatting with Chi Wei from the neighboring office and my boss Manager Zhang, and hang out with my colleague, even using makeshift tools to give them back massages.
So, I am normal.
From this, one can deduce that it must be the world that’s abnormal!
After organizing his thoughts, ng Xu felt reassured about his own sanity.
【1:30 p.m. Lunch break is over. The company seems a bit lax today, but as an Intern, you must not forget the tasks assigned by your boss. Proceed to the 11th floor to discuss the underground parking space with Supervisor Lin of Wanxiang International.】

Hey, Supervisor Lin.
The sudden appearance of these instructions brought a smile to ng Xu’s face.
It’s actually not a big deal. Supervisor Lin from Wanxiang International and his own boss had so disputes over parking spaces.
Alright, heading upstairs for negotiations then, and I guarantee it’ll be resolved satisfactorily.
ng Xu nodded, carrying the still-bloody ‘improvised spear’ made from a mop handle, scissors, and tape. Holding two ropes, he headed upstairs with large strides!
“I’m too scared to face Supervisor Lin alone, so I’ve brought along Chi Wei from the neighboring company and my departnt Manager Zhang. No problem with that, right?”
ng Xu felt that there was no issue with his plan.
Colleagues should stick together and be supportive.
With this mindset, ng Xu brought the two zombies along.
“Drip, drip.”
The stairwell was eerily quiet.
The quieter it was, the more uneasy ng Xu felt.
I’m not alone; I’ve got Manager Zhang and Chi Wei with !
Thinking this, ng Xu glanced at his two ‘companions’ and silently retracted his thoughts, the uneasiness in his heart resurfacing.
Although the two zombies beca his temporary “companions” due to their -100 affection level, it was impossible not to fear them.
What if they suddenly turned against him?
Therefore, ng Xu remained highly alert, paying attention to any slight movents around him while discreetly distributing so leaflets.
It had to be said, ng Xu was incredibly energized right now.
The cola he drank earlier had a strong effect, making him feel sharp and energized.
Comfortable!
He went to the ninth floor, finding it empty. The office doors were locked and there was no movent inside. ng Xu symbolically placed so leaflets on each office door and then left the ninth floor.
After taking a few steps, ng Xu encountered a zombie wearing a security guard uniform, wandering in the stairwell between the tenth and eleventh floors. Its face was hideous, veins bulging on its forehead, and its neck bent at an impossible angle.
“Roar!”
The mont the zombie saw ng Xu, it was instantly invigorated and charged at him.
【Zombie: Level 0】
Seeing the situation, ng Xu was already sowhat accustod to it. He raised his improvised weapon high, pulled the rope with his other hand, and instantly had Chi Wei and Manager Zhang block the path, preventing the security guard zombie from advancing.
anwhile, he stabbed the security guard zombie with the improvised spear, softly chanting, “How about swimming fitness?”
“Gentleman, interested in swimming fitness?”
He felt a bit like a lunatic.
Fortunately, the stairway wasn’t broad, giving him an opportunity.
After nurous stabs, the ground was covered in blood. Once the security guard zombie finally collapsed, ng Xu exhaled deeply and looked over at the zombie.
At that mont, its occupation and level had both vanished.
Seeing this, ng Xu couldn’t help but relax, loosening his tense muscles. He continued to explore and headed to the tenth floor to distribute leaflets.
This ‘Reading the Room’ skill has another benefit—confirming whether a zombie was truly dead.
Otherwise, you might think it’s dead, but in reality, it’s not, and it might suddenly attack you—now that’s life-threatening.
The safety door leading to the stairwell on the tenth floor was half open, likely where the security guard zombie erged from. ng Xu took a deep breath, gently pushed the door open, and imdiately used ‘positioning’ to let Chi Wei and Manager Zhang lead the way.
ng Xu, as a dedicated employee, understood the principle of letting leaders go first.
After ensuring it was safe, ng Xu exited the stairwell. When he saw the scene at the end of the hallway, he was initially stunned, then overjoyed.
Because he saw a lock that had completely sealed off the entire company on the tenth floor, which seed to have been hosting so party last night. Packed inside were at least thirty to forty zombies!
The area was drenched in blood, a veritable hell on earth.
Whoever escaped and locked the door afterward was really heartless.
Could it have been that bus driver earlier?
No matter, I’ve avenged you now.
ng Xu took a deep breath, standing before the thirty to forty zombies with a professional smile, “Ladies and gentlen, how about swimming fitness? With all thirty to forty of you together, you get an eighty-five percent discount!”
“……”
