Chapter 2581: Chapter 1171: Jiang Yitong: Isn’t It Totally Unfair Not to Reward Lin Baici This Time?
Li Wei jumped down, worried about crashing into Lin Baici, planning to be supported by him for a moment then immediately roll to the side to absorb the impact of the fall, but who knew his childhood friend’s large hand would extend, grab him, turn, and fling him steadily onto the ground.
If he hadn’t grown up with Lin Baici, knowing him inside out, he would have thought Lin Baici was a trained fighter.
Bang!
A zombie chased closely, and actually fell down.
It fell hard, breaking its arm and left leg, but as a monster, it didn’t feel pain and continued crawling forward, trying to attack them.
Nearby, a few wandering zombies heard the commotion, turned their heads, and upon seeing Lin Baici and Li Wei, immediately ran towards them.
"Run!"
Li Wei shouted, "Let’s go to the armed police squad!"
"It’ll be safe there!"
Li Wei ran a few steps, not hearing any footsteps, and looked back to see his childhood friend hadn’t moved!
"What’s wrong?"
Li Wei ran back, bent over to grab Lin Baici’s pants, checking his ankle: "Did you sprain it when jumping off?"
"I’ll carry you!"
"No!"
Lin Baici moved Li Wei’s hand away: "It’s just a few small fish monsters, no need to panic!"
"Besides, I’m still planning to find someone!"
Lin Baici didn’t take out a weapon, mainly because these zombies were truly too weak.
"Find someone? Who?"
Li Wei saw the zombies rushing over, Lin Baici still unmoved, and was speechless, reaching out to pull his childhood friend: "Even if you want to fight zombies, you should find a weapon first, right?"
"No need!"
Lin Baici spoke, snapping his fingers.
Divine Grace Activation, Samadhi Golden Crow Fire!
Bang!
A burst of spark flashed, then burned, forming a large flaming bird which screeched and charged towards the frontmost zombie.
Bang!
The zombie hit by the flaming bird exploded like being hit by an RPG rocket.
Its chunks of flesh burned, crackling as they dropped to the ground.
"Ah..."
Li Wei’s mouth hung open, utterly stunned.
What did I just see?
Magic?
Bang! Bang!
Lin Baici snapped his fingers twice more.
Two more flaming birds formed, shooting towards the remaining zombies, blowing them up.
"This is..."
Li Wei was utterly bewildered.
"I’m a God Hunter!"
Lin Baici explained, coming to rescue his childhood friend, realizing this secret couldn’t be kept any longer.
"What’s a God Hunter?"
Li Wei was confused.
Though rumors about God’s ruins exist online, they are only spread in small circles. Li Wei is busy with studying and working, doesn’t even browse TikTok, let alone forums, so he didn’t know at all.
"I’ll tell you when there’s time!"
Lin Baici raised an eyebrow: "Just know that I’m very strong!"
"You’ve always been strong!"
Li Wei felt no surprise or thought Lin Baici was arrogant, because since childhood, any wish his friend wanted to achieve always came true.
After killing those zombies, Lin Baici looked at the teaching building.
"Do you know approximately where Jiang Yitong is now?"
Lin Baici knew Li Wei was a good student, always studying when at school, so finding him at the teaching building was definitely right.
If not found there, then surely at the library.
Facts proved Lin Baici’s reasoning was correct.
But Jiang Yitong might not be as easy to locate.
"Who?"
Li Wei was puzzled: "Jiang Yitong? The campus belle of Haijing Normal University?"
"Yes!"
Lin Baici nodded.
"You know her?"
Li Wei was curious. Lin Baici looking for her surely meant he planned to save her, but they had no crossover!
If Lin Baici fancied Jiang Yitong, wanting to heroically save the beauty?
That’s impossible!
Just looking at the girl Ji Xinyan who sent him off during summer vacation, and Sister Fish, both were prettier than Jiang Yitong.
"Uh-huh!"
Lin Baici was a bit embarrassed, as his relationship with Jiang Yitong couldn’t be publicly discussed.
If it weren’t for Haijing’s major pollution incident, Li Wei might never know that Lin Baici had been romantically involved with Jiang Yitong.
"How do you know her?"
Li Wei was extremely curious, suddenly thinking of something, quickly asked: "Did she chase you?"
"To what extent have you progressed?"
If there’s no relationship, Lin Baici certainly wouldn’t risk his life to save her.
But looking at the burning zombie bodies on the ground.
Alright!
Not really that risky!
"Just friends who’ve had a few meals together!"
Lin Baici scratched his head, offering a kind lie, unable to tell his childhood friend, that he’s experienced all aspects of their campus belle.
Li Wei was quite pure, just curious, not having dirty thoughts. Upon hearing Lin Baici’s explanation, he didn’t care anymore: "I heard Jiang Yitong recently joined the Youth League Committee, so most likely in the committee’s office, right?"
Li Wei said this, then began to lead the way.
"Hold on!"
Lin Baici took out the Antler Bone Flute and sounded it, summoning the Reindeer Sleigh.
"Take this for self-defense!"
Lin Baici fetched a Fire Axe from his bag, handing it to Li Wei, while holding a Bronze Sword himself.
"Whoa!"
Li Wei was stunned seeing a Reindeer Sleigh appear out of nowhere: "Has something happened to you in this past year?"
"It’s a long story!"
Compared to the pollution Lin Baici encountered before, these zombies were insignificant, so Lin Baici walked leisurely.
Even Li Wei was influenced by Lin Baici’s calm demeanor, no longer panicking, even jokingly teasing him a bit.
Zombies came over, Lin Baici just swung his sword to kill them, not needing Li Wei to act.
...
Bai Lele squatted by the window, peering at the campus, pondering how to safely jump down, and suddenly saw two guys.
