Apocalypse Rebirth: Beauties Surround Me-Chapter 61: Ridiculous

Benjamin pulled out the small hammer he always carried with him.

It was one of the only two tools he had at home that he could carry around, usually used for nailing canvases, the other being an X-Acto knife!

Just as he was about to break the glass, the woman inside finally moved.

She suddenly took two steps closer and then opened the window from inside.

"??"

Benjamin was momentarily confused, then ecstatic. "Finally, some cooperation!"

But the next moment, his smile froze.

The woman, from somewhere, produced a long knife.

The handle was red, the blade long and straight, single-edged, and at the tip, it resembled a sword. freewebnoveℓ.com

The knife gleamed with the unmistakable shine of metal, unmistakably real.

He just wasn't sure if it was sharpened or not.

A hint of panic flashed across Benjamin's face. He didn't want to find out!

"Um... Miss, I'm a bit hungry, I just came to ask if you have something to eat or drink, is that okay?"

Bella looked at him as if he were a complete idiot.

"Seriously, Miss, I also came to apologize. I was out of line earlier, shouldn't have cursed or kicked the door!"

Benjamin put on a sincere smile, usually quite effective with girls. But Bella didn't say a word; instead, she began aiming the knife at him.

Then she lunged!

Instinctively, Benjamin dodged to the side.

Though he successfully avoided Bella's strike, he forgot he was standing on the windowsill.

His feet slipped, unable to maintain balance, and he started falling backward.

"Eh? Eh! Eh..."

Benjamin yelled out, luckily managing to grab onto the curtain tightly, preventing himself from falling. But his body was almost completely horizontal.

Now the perspectives switched; Bella was above, looking down at him.

Benjamin watched as Bella, with a pensive expression, stared at the curtain holding him, her eyes seeming to light up.

A chill ran down his spine! This woman wouldn't...

Bella answered with actions! She aimed the knife at the curtain and began cutting.

"Oh, damn!"

"No, Miss, don't do this! It's wrong! You're committing murder, it's illegal!"

Bella ignored him, focused on her task.

Benjamin was terrified! He was on the fifth floor; if he fell, he'd either die or be severely injured. And there were zombies below.

"Damn it!"

Benjamin gritted his teeth, rapidly pushing his feet downward and pulling the curtain down with his hands. Soon, he reached the level of the fourth floor.

Standing on the fourth-floor windowsill, Benjamin finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"You bitch, just you wait. I'll catch you sooner or later, and then I'll make you pay!"

After cursing, Benjamin saw the window on the fourth floor open and moved to kick open the screen window. But before he could act, a figure emerged from the shadows inside.

Another woman, a beautiful one. She was dressed as the protagonist from NieR: Automata, holding a white long knife, slowly approaching.

Her crimson blood-red eyes fixed on Benjamin, filled with a thirst for blood!

"...Master... commands... hunger..."

Benjamin was dumbfounded! He had completely forgotten about this!

Immediately, his face turned terrified as he shouted, "Don't come any closer!"

As Benjamin retreated, he found himself completely out of ground. His body plummeted suddenly, followed by a loud "thud."

The curtain stretched straight, suspending him in mid-air, then he crashed violently against the wall.

Benjamin's face slammed directly into the wall, and because of the inertia, it immediately turned into a blur of flesh and blood.

"Ahh~"

Benjamin screamed, tears and mucus mixed with blood covering his face. But it wasn't over yet.

Because of the force of the fall, there was a sudden "ripping" sound, as if something had been torn apart. Benjamin's body dropped a bit further.

Upstairs, Bella looked at the rope strangely. How come the slit she had just cut didn't widen? And where did that tearing sound come from?

On the rooftop, where the rope met the eaves. There was originally a tiny gap there, and as Benjamin slowly moved downward, it gradually widened.

Now, with the sudden force of the fall, the rope couldn't hold anymore.

It tore open more than two-thirds, with just a little bit left intact. And as Benjamin struggled, the remaining part began to break.

Facing downward, trembling hands carefully touched his face. "My... nose, my face..."

Then he felt a sudden looseness around his waist, the tightness of suspension disappearing. His body fell weightlessly downward.

The ground came closer and closer. A putrid, decaying corpse came into view. Then, with a loud "thud," everything went black, and he felt nothing more.

Meanwhile, Bella listened as the screams disappeared and glanced outside. Benjamin lay face down on the ground, blood pooling around him. The commotion attracted nearby zombies, all pouncing on his body, tearing and biting.

Bella breathed a sigh of relief, the danger was over. Unable to bear watching anymore, she closed the curtains.

Across the street, Christopher lowered his binoculars and chuckled. "Damn, falling asleep and getting a pillow delivered! And there's the key, too!" He was sure the psycho had the key. If not, climbing up wouldn't be a problem! As for those zombies, he didn't care!

"But, it's a bit late today. After cleaning up the zombies, it'll be dark!" Christopher watched the sun sinking and felt today's action was too risky.

"Let's wait until tomorrow! But, didn't expect there to be another woman on the fourth floor, and she's hot too! Looks like I'm in for a treat, heh heh..."

Elijah and Daisy rushed through the night, taking less than two hours to return to the old city area.

Daisy's little motorcycle malfunctioned after leaving the coastal road. Because they often traveled on sidewalks, the bumps and vibrations were loud, easily attracting zombies.

Unable to speed up and shake off the zombies, they reluctantly abandoned the motorcycle and started walking.

Soon, they arrived at the lingerie shop where they had previously stayed. Daisy glanced at the nearby police station and asked, "Elijah, should we go in and take a look?"

"Forget it, let's save time! Besides, I'm starting to sense Abigail. If I'm not mistaken, she should be awake!"

"Really?" Daisy was excited.

"I can't be sure yet, just a feeling! After all, the distance is still too far!"

Elijah closed his eyes and sensed.

They were about seven to eight kilometers away from Bella now. At this distance, he could only vaguely sense the other's condition.

Effective control required being within five kilometers.

"Then let's hurry!"
