Chapter 52: Wounded Beasts

“Yes, I want to start learning now.” LuLu lowered her head because she didn’t have any other choice. Either she would be abandoned and left to die, or she would have to work hard to survive by learning how to kill zombies.

In modern society, there are many children who act arrogantly when they are with their parents. Even when they are only slightly unhappy, they will throw a tantrum. However, when they are placed in the care of their nursery school teacher, or parents’ friends and coworkers, they become obedient and will stop throwing tantrums.

The reason is simple: children will stop relying on their parents when their parents aren’t by their side. Without anyone to rely on, the foundation for their arrogance will also subside. They know that they will be punished and scolded for throwing a tantrum. Their attitude now, compared to when they were with their parents, would be completely different.

LuLu had the support of her super-fan Pan Hua by her side before, so she could be a bit unruly. Now that she had nobody else to count on, she could only rely on herself.

“Do you have your alloy watch?” Liu Gan turned his attention to tell Jiang JinYuan.

“Alloy watch… yes, is this it?” Jiang JinYuan lifted his wrist for Liu Gan to look at.

“Yes, that’s it. Now take a look at your current attributes, and check out if you have the line that says level?” Liu Gan advised.

“Yes, there it is. I’m level 1!” Jiang JinYuan said as he nodded.

“Let’s go, I will take you to kill zombies.” Liu Gan said to Jiang JinYuan and LuLu, as he headed toward the front door.

LuLu placed DongDong on the floor. Only after she coaxed him, he finally let go of her hand. Then, she headed toward the area where she left her machete. Her complexion turned somewhat pale from fear.

DongDong quickly went back to hide underneath the bed. He clenched the toy airplane he left behind earlier, as he fearfully peeped out from below.

Liu Gan brought Jiang JinYuan and LuLu to the district’s back exit. Earlier, he had already completely scouted this district, so he remembered that a street behind the back exit had quite a lot of zombies. It was a perfect chance to bait some zombies for Jiang JinYuan and LuLu to practice.

LuLu trailed behind Jiang JinYuan and Liu Gan, knowing that she would be forced to cut down zombies. She grew nervous, but it was too late to change her mind. She could only ride it through. If she didn’t take this opportunity to learn how to kill zombies, then how would she protect herself in this apocalyptic world? The moment Liu Gan left, she would have no choice but to wait for death.

She was also unsure of how Liu Gan would train them. Surely he wouldn’t directly lure them to her to kill right? Actually, according to Liu Gan’s behavior, he might do that. He might not give her time to adjust. LuLu felt as if she was being torn apart by the zombies. Thinking about that moment, her scalp felt numb as the hair on her head started to stand up.

Should I escape?

What happens after I escape?

“You guys wait here; I will come back shortly.” Liu Gan said to the two and quickly went out the back exit.
