nChapter 9

nYe Li felt puzzled. He thought Yun Man should be a warrior from the Annan Base City, so why was she here? The same went for the other Awakened Beings.

n“Senior, we came to Tongcheng for training,”

nYun Man replied, lowering her head.

n“Training?”

nYe Li understood. No wonder there were no zombies on the streets when he was at the hospital. These delicate flowers had most likely attracted the zombies away.

n“How many people came for training this time?” Ye Li asked.

n“About twenty people in total. We didn’t expect there would be so many zombies in the East District. Only five of us managed to escape, but I don’t know how the rest of us are doing”

nYun Man answered, her face still pale, as if she couldn’t believe what she had experienced was real.

n“They’re all dead. Not even a trace of bone left.” Ye Li said calmly.

n“Ah?”

nYun Man widened her eyes, and her already pale face turned even paler.

nThe people who died were her classmates. They had come to Tongcheng secretly for training because their teachers at the academy didn’t allow them to come here.

nShe deeply regretted it now. If she could do it again, she would have persuaded her classmates not to come to Tongcheng.

n“Why? If it weren’t for me, you would have had the same fate as them.” Ye Li said slowly.

nAfter saying that, Ye Li seemed to think of something and looked at Yun Man again.

n“You said there were a lot of zombies in the East District?”

n“Yes, Senior.”

nYun Man was confused, not understanding why Ye Li was asking this.

nYe Li smiled. What he feared now was that there wouldn’t be enough zombies.

n“Then lead the way to the East District, let’s go.”

nUpon hearing this, Yun Man was so scared that her soul seemed to leave her body.

n“Senior, you… you want to go to the East District?”

nYun Man felt like she must have misheard. She had just experienced a narrow escape in the East District. How could she dare to go back?

n“Yes, I want to go to the East District,” Ye Li nodded.

n“But, Senior, there are too many zombies in the East District.”

nYun Man wanted to dissuade Ye Li from the idea of going to the East District. Essentially, she was being kind.

n“I’m not afraid of zombies,” Ye Li said indifferently.

nYun Man saw that Ye Li was determined to go to the East District, but she had just barely escaped from there. How could she possibly think of going back?

nSo many of her classmates died in the East District. How could she explain it when she returned to Annan Academy?

nYun Man was torn with conflicting thoughts!!!

n“What’s wrong? Don’t you want to show me the way?” Ye Li looked at Yun Man.

nYun Man was startled. “No, Senior, it’s not that. I just…”

n“I’m just hungry and thirsty, with no strength left in my body.”

nYun Man had no choice but to say this. She wanted Ye Li to give up, but she wasn’t lying either. She was truly hungry and thirsty.

n“Have some food.”

nAfter saying that, Ye Li took out a box of food from the system space.

nYe Li opened the food box, revealing bread and milk inside.

nYun Man widened her eyes, looking astonished at the bread and milk in the box.

nShe couldn’t understand how Ye Li had managed to obtain them. She distinctly remembered that Ye Li didn’t have this box of food just now.

nBut at this moment, Yun Man didn’t have time to think about it. She had run all the way from the East District and was already famished and thirsty.

nShe picked up the bread and milk and started eating and drinking.

n“Mmm, it’s delicious!”

nYe Li smiled. In this city overrun by zombies, it wasn’t easy to find bread and milk. However, Yun Man was from Annan Base City. It must be different for her.

n“Now, can you take me to the East District?”

nYe Li looked at Yun Man, thinking that now that she was full and satisfied, it was time to move on.

nYun Man had been preoccupied with eating and forgotten about this. There was no such thing as a free lunch. She could only reluctantly agree.

n“Well… okay.” Yun Man nodded.

nImmediately, Yun Man led Ye Li toward the East District.
