Chapter 106 : Zombie Empire 20 (2/2)
‘Son of a bitch! Cheng Su’s diary already gave me a bad feeling but now look! Here’s the origin of the apocalypse right here! Just what the fuck is Qian Li’s origin?! A resurrected corpse?!
Just what kind of backgrounds in the blazing hells did this world auto-fill?!
Fuck your mom! I didn’t want to deal with such a complicated questline! Now I have to use my brain again! Couldn’t you have allowed me show off in peace?! Couldn’t you have let me be my flower vase[1] idiot?! What’s wrong with that?!’
[……] ‘THIS SYSTEM SHALL NOT COMMENT ON THE HOST’S PREFERENCES.’
“The side quest has just been lifted to a whole new level, ah! System, you think you can pretend like you’re not here just by keeping quiet?” Shi Sheng’s mental voice had taken on hints of a tone spoken through clenched teeth.
System had to speak. [The Side Quests are part of the storyline so they are often connected with the Hidden Quests… Of course, the rewards are also more plentiful than other Quests. And completing them can unlock special items.]
“Okay then, gimme a cheat first!”
[…Don’t you already have a cheat of your own?] ‘YOU KNOW, THAT SPACE YOU BROUGHT WITH YOU? THE ONE WITH WHO KNOWS HOW MUCH STUFF IN IT? THE ONE I STILL HAVEN’T FULLY UNDERSTOOD?’
“You want to confiscate my property?! Why don’t you just claim the universe while you’re at it?! Have some face!!!”
System felt like its Host was flaring up.
[I don’t have any cheats for you… Your Morality Points are too low.] System paused. [Though if you’re willing to hand over that space, I can give you a cheat.]
“Do you take me for an idiot?!” Shi Sheng continued cursing System for a while before giving up. ‘You want me to swap my space for a measly cheat? This System is even more prone to indulge in wild fantasies than me(bbb)! Must send it back for servicing!’
Of course, System knew that was impossible but if it hadn’t said that, who knows how long this eccentric Host of its would hold on to this topic?!
‘HAVE TO INVESTIGATE THAT SPACE QUICKLY OTHERWISE AT THIS RATE, THE HOST IS GOING TO WRECK THE WORLD.’
……
Shi Sheng was holding in a bellyful of fire and needed to find a way to vent. She restrained her anger and got White Tiger to keep the crystal coffin in its space. She didn’t know if it had any other uses, so she brought it along just in case. Though, even if it was useless, it still looked pretty.
The Qing Yu trio wanted to ask about it, but seeing Shi Sheng in that mood, they didn’t dare to. ‘Boss looks very scary right now…’
They found a tunnel in the lab that led outdoors. It was probably an emergency evacuation route. When Shi Sheng finally got out, the zombies outside met with a catastrophe. Shi Sheng began to hack wildly with her sword.
Qing Yu’s team, which had no opportunity to do anything, “…”
‘Why do we feel like Boss is a bit off? Did she activate grim reaper mode?! But…
Why didn’t we notice before that Boss looks so cool when killing people?! Her every move is so beautiful, like she’s dancing!
Ah aah aaah!!! {imagine fangirl shrieking}
Boss is so cool! What do we do? Think we fell for Boss!’
And so, they watched as their boss hacked half the zombies in D County. It really was half. As long as they were on the streets, she would hack at them. With this display, they knew their Boss’ true strength… ‘She’s a mobile human-shaped killing weapon!’
After she had finished with her killing spree, Shi Sheng’s anger was finally vented a bit. The zombies she had killed were only at the first and second stages so they were relatively easy to kill. The third and fourth staged ones though weren’t anywhere to be seen.
Shi Sheng shook her sword. ‘Qian Li still hasn’t found his way back to me yet…’
[1] Flower vases are people with looks but no brains. *Ahem*, to put it more crassly, all boobs and no brains.
