Deep in the Living-Chapter 17 - 15 Support

Anna rushed upstairs at top speed, preparing to retrieve the 'Supreme Yang Item' designed against zombies from her room.

"It's actually zombies from Wenwen's country; initially, the term for zombies in Russian meant the same as in our language, yet they're not the same entity.

Even though we were able to interrupt the ceremony in time and prevent the final evolution of this zombie, its body is still so hard... My axe can chop down a small tree in one strike, but it can't even cleave through the shoulder bone of the other party.

This is just a Simulation Practice with significantly reduced difficulty and under the control of the research institute,

The real 'anomaly' will be even more terrifying~ my strength and skills are far from enough; no wonder the teacher removed me from the sports competition. After returning to school this time, I must double my physical training."

After organizing her slightly chaotic thoughts, Anna was already standing in front of the master bedroom door.

Just as she was about to push the door open,

Tsk~ (a clicking sound with the tongue)

Just a brief and crisp sound,

Suddenly brought more fear than the zombie downstairs,

The sound pulled Anna's gaze towards the corridor next to her.

She clearly remembered that the master bedroom was at the deepest end of the corridor, with only the end of the passage next to the door.

But the corridor in front of her extended further, growing pitch black in the depth, with no light strips attached, and the end could not be seen.

The just-heard sound came from within the darkness,

The fear in her thoughts grew with the gazing,

Suddenly, Anna could vaguely see something in the depths of the darkness, slowly coming out, gradually revealing part of its body contour.

That was a horrifying entity with a tongue for a head,

Moving its feet like a living person,

About to emerge from the darkness, about to reveal some unknown and terrifying ultimate form.

Smack!

A palm quickly slapped down onto Anna's shoulder.

The sudden touch pulled Anna's attention out of the darkness, and in the blink of an eye, the corridor in front of her had returned to normal, with an end just three meters away and a vase standing there.

"Anna, what are you spacing out at the door for?"

Anna turned her head to see Gao Yuxuan, the bespectacled gentleman,

"Did you hear any strange sound just now?"

"No... hurry up~ the class leader and Luo Di can't hold on much longer."

At the critical juncture of this practical session, Gao Yuxuan had no time to think about anything else; every second wasted was playing a dangerous game with his teammates' lives.

The reason he also ran back to the mansion was simple, his athletic performance was the worst among the four. Since even Anna couldn't cut through the zombie, him wielding a Field Knife would be even less effective.

But Gao Yuxuan had also made preparations in advance, storing a special item in his backpack, originally intended to provide medical assistance to teammates, and now it might be used against the zombies.

Seeing Gao Yuxuan had already rushed into the master bedroom to rummage for things, Anna followed him in,

But the taste of fear brought by the tongue-clicking sound still lingered at the base of her tongue,

Even though she kept reminding herself to trust the research institute, to believe that this practice session would only trigger one anomaly, the scene she had just seen couldn't be fake.

Anna rummaged through her backpack while saying:

"Classmate Gao, I just heard a tongue-clicking sound in the corridor and saw something like a demon; it felt very dangerous."

Strangely enough,

Gao Yuxuan did not respond but was highly focused as he took something out of the backpack; upon closer inspection, it was an odd wooden box.

Seemingly with zombies and the desire to provide support as soon as possible occupying his mind, he hadn't heard a word Anna said.

Gao Yuxuan also opened the wooden box to check, and inside were rows of neatly arranged silver needles.

"Is this... Traditional Chinese Medicine?"

Although Anna was not a Huaxia native, she was aware of the highly esteemed Traditional Chinese Medicine,

With one company nearly monopolizing biomedicine technology, these Chinese medicine clinics were an affordable and effective part of the medical system, scattered throughout cities nationwide, especially accessible for the common people to afford treatment.

She once had the privilege of experiencing acupuncture, with just one session adjusting her body condition, and she subsequently achieved good results in her physical fitness test.

```

The silver needles stored in the wooden box were much longer than those used for acupuncture, with the longest one capable of piercing through an arm.

Anna retrieved items from her backpack, which were precisely the vodka they had drunk during the meal—three bottles in total,

the first two being her favorite 60-degree spirits, as for the last one, it was the market's highest-proof Spirytus (Water of Life), at 96 degrees, a special vodka generally used for mixing various cocktails. Anna had not expected it to come in handy like this.

Additionally, there were torn strips of cloth and a windproof lighter,

"Let's go!"

"Okay!"

When the two pushed open the bedroom door again, they could hear the clanging of metal coming from outside, even from a far distance.

"Wenwen!"

Having personally chopped at zombies, Anna was well aware of how difficult they were to deal with. Concern for her best friend further suppressed the fear in her mind, as the current situation naturally precluded any consideration of the ethereal hissing.

They would have to wait until the zombie matter was settled before discussing it with the others.

The two dashed out of the mansion at their fastest speed, but the scene before them as they crossed the threshold froze them in place.

The sound of fighting that they had just heard had stopped,

the silver-coated modern chainsaw was lying next to the mansion's gate, only the most crucial part—the saw blade—had broken and could no longer be used.

Luo Di was lying on the ground over ten meters away,

his right hand clutching his left upper arm, where holes the thickness of three fingers penetrated the muscle, the wound turning black and oozing blood and pus.

However,

on the front yard's open ground lay an arm wrapped in a fabric sleeve, with foul black blood flowing everywhere, the rough cut on the limb indicating it was severed by a chainsaw.

At the cost of a destroyed chainsaw and an injured arm, Luo Di had somehow sawed off one of the zombie's arms.

The two, who had not witnessed the event, were shocked by Luo Di's personal strength,

but only Luo Di himself knew that it was all thanks to the class monitor's restraint, allowing him the opportunity to wield the unwieldy chainsaw and effectively cut the zombie.

And the class monitor's combat skills didn't seem like those of a high school student at all,

Ah~~

Plumes of black mist spewed from the zombie's mouth, losing an arm had made it even angrier, targeting Luo Di, the chainsaw wielder, as its primary goal,

canvas shoes stood up, lunging swiftly.

Luo Di, just managing to get up from the ground, seemed a bit too late to dodge.

At the critical moment,

something glowing flew from the gate, tracing a parabola in the air before perfectly striking the side of the zombie's body.

With the sound of shattering glass and a terrifying roar, flames fed on oxygen and spread across the zombie's body, the strong alcohol odor quickly dispersing.

The makeshift incendiary bottle made from alcohol wasn't very effective, the flames did not engulf the zombie completely, only burning part of its body.

The Supreme Yang flames naturally suppressed the yin corpse,

even though the pus secreted from under the zombie's skin could effectively contain the flames, the scorching before it went out was still quite effective,

seizing this chance, another object was thrown,

this time not towards the zombie, but to Luo Di who had just stood up.

Snap!

He caught it firmly.

It was a 60-degree vodka bottle, the mouth of which did not have a lit cloth stuffed in.

Though it did not reach the medical alcohol standard of 70~75 degrees, it still had a certain disinfecting effect, and Luo Di immediately poured the alcohol over the wound on his arm.

Agonizing pain,

and the erosion caused by the Corpse Poison was not something that could be simply dealt with.

At this moment, an almost insensate, gentle hand rested on Luo Di's shoulder, a touch as if bringing Luo Di back to the last moment before the holiday began, back to when the class monitor had just found him to invite him to the Simulation Practice.

A gentle voice came from under the mask,

"Leave the rest to us~ To deal with a crippled zombie with one arm missing, we are more than sufficient, don't underestimate your teammates."
