Ch108 - He experienced what it was like to not know how to begin (2/2)
“Yes! Lord host has boundless charm – Chu Han must have a problem with his brain for him to ignore you. Since he wants to die so much, we’ll send him on his way.”
“Good!”
Xue Ling looked at the previous half month’s worth of dialogue between the protagonist and his system that his own family’s system was showing him, and asked the little fox who was circling around him, “This system of He Yan’s, is it really an apocalypse counterattack system?”
“That’s right. Isn’t it saying things that give off the feel of an apocalypse counter attack?” The little fox shook its ears and looked at its host in confusion. “Even the protagonist’s IQ has been led astray by it.”
“I think his IQ is what it is. It doesn’t matter whether it’s been led astray or not.”

“…”
“They are going to abandon me and go for Xun Yu instead?”
“And here I was thinking that you didn’t know that your man was the zombie emperor in this life…”
“Of course I know. Didn’t I guess it right from the start? I’m waiting for him to tell me himself. Won’t it be fun to play a round of ‘do you want me or do you want your clan’ with him later?”
“…” Did its host feel unhappy whenever he didn’t seek death for a day? “Host, your focus seems to be wrong… Isn’t the main point that the protagonist shou appears to want to hook up with your man?”
“I know.” Xue Ling curved up his lips in a cold smile, “Don’t you think there’s something wrong with his system’s words?”
“Um… It appears so.”
“It seems that the plot defender this time did not simply transmigrate into a person. Rather, it became the protagonist shou’s system.” Xue Ling rubbed his chin and analysed, “Although they are plot defenders, the only thing they really need to do is ensure that the final ending is correct. As long as the zombie emperor and I are both dead, and He Yan lives to the end, then that counts as the plot having been successfully maintained. That’s why it would make such a plan.”
“It is estimated that it is also a novice plot defender. Otherwise, it would not consider having the protagonist shou fall in love with the zombie emperor. Its thinking is a little too unrealistic; did it really think that it would be so easy to maintain the storyline?”
“If lord host wasn’t here, perhaps it would really be successful?”
“Ha-ha.” Xue Ling stared at the frozen blade at the tip of his fingers and laughed coldly. “Only someone who has lost their memory and gotten brainwashed would like an idiot like He Yan.”
“…” Its host’s words had become more and more cruel recently. It had no idea where the protagonist shou had irritated him.
Um… It seemed that everything about him was annoying. Xue Ling had no idea why anyone would create such a world.
“Let him do what he wants. I’m more interested in seeing how he plans to get away when he really manages to stir up a zombie beast tide.”

“The question is how does lord host plan to get away…”
“Why will I have to get away? Did you think that I brought these people here just to watch them play around? If they can’t even deal with a beast this time, there’s no use for them to stay in the mercenary corps.”
System: “… That’s too cruel…”
“Only after suffering bitterness within bitterness will one become a man of honor. What’s more, with Xun Yu and I here, what is there to be afraid of?”
System: “…”
That was true. In fact, as long as the aura of the zombie emperor was present, the probability of those zombie beasts approaching them was very low; even if they were frenzied, none of the zombie beasts would dare provoke their emperor’s authority.
After watching the protagonist look for trouble, Xue Ling tilted his head to ask Xun Yu, who had been staring at him the entire time, “If there is a zombie beast tide, how many zombie beasts would you be able to hold back?”

Xun Yu did not understand why he would come up with such a sentence after not speaking for a good while. He was distracted for a moment before opening his mouth to ask, “How many do you want me to resist?”
Xue Ling shrugged his shoulders and said, “All of them would be best, of course~”
“There’s a beast tide?”
“What should come will always come.” Xue Ling’s answer spoke volumes. He then got up to return back to his trailer car. According to He Yan’s speed and strength, he would probably still need a period of time before he could steal away that baby beast. Xue Ling could use this time to properly train up the newcomers.
Xun Yu was a little curious about odd conversation that seemed to have no purpose, but Xue Ling did not explain, and he also had no way to foresee what would happen after a period of time. In fact, he was a little unhappy about his current progress. Xue Ling always kept himself at a certain distance from him, and the relationship between them could only be said to be a relationship between ordinary friends. Or, perhaps Xue Ling only considered him as a partner and basically had no intention to develop their relationship any further.
Xun Yu didn’t know if Xue Ling was always cold and indifferent towards him now because he had been frightened away by his roguishness the first time. He always tossed him to one side as soon as they finished discussing official business and did not talk about anything else with him at all.
This was not the state that he wanted to be in.

Xun Yu recalled the tactics for chasing someone that his subordinates had talked about before, and began to think about how to apply them to Xue Ling.
But no matter what he recalled, he felt that those means were all useless towards Xue Ling…
This was really too awful… Xun Yu, for the first time in his life, experienced what it was like to not know how to begin…
