Lord of Illusions City

Chapter 57 Duan Lei's Thoughts

Chapter 11 To the Fifth Floor

Li Chenzhou didn't immediately go downstairs after leaving the room. Instead, he walked to the end of the corridor, stood in front of the window, and quietly looked down.

Duan Lei followed, a hint of doubt in his eyes as he looked at Li Chenzhou. Now... perhaps wasn't the best time to contemplate life?

"Xiao Lei! That's where the Zombie King is located."

Li Chenzhou pointed into the distance.

"It's probably near the hotel we just left. This Zombie King is very strong. Once it gathers enough zombies, it will start clearing out the humans in its territory."

As he spoke, Li Chenzhou turned to look at Duan Lei.

"If that happens, we'll be trapped here and won't be able to escape! We'll die! But... right now, the Zombie King is summoning zombies, and all the zombies have heard its call, so they're at their least threatening.

"However, there's another group of people in this building. I don't know the exact number, but I'm sure they're our enemies. Do you think we should escape immediately, or stay here and take the opportunity to kill all the zombies below?"

Duan Lei didn't answer immediately. He walked to the window, carefully looked outside, and then turned back to Li Chenzhou.

"Boss, even if that guy wants to clear out its territory, shouldn't it start from the inside out?"

Li Chenzhou didn't answer, but nodded.

"Did the people you encountered have guns? How many were there, roughly?"

Duan Lei asked again.

"I didn't see any guns. As for how many, I'm not sure, because there might be more of them upstairs!"

Li Chenzhou shook his head and briefly recounted what had happened earlier.

"In that case..."

After listening to Li Chenzhou's story, Duan Lei thought for a moment and said,

"Boss, I think we need Slaughter Points right now, so we can take this opportunity to kill more zombies. And if the zombies really won't pay attention to anything else because they're being summoned, as you said, we can kill them without worry. We'll know as soon as the Zombie King finishes its summoning, because the zombies will return to normal!

"As for the people you encountered, they didn't dare to confront you head-on before, and I don't think they'll dare to now. They're probably escaping through the back door right now!"

"Alright! Let's go down together!"

Hearing what Duan Lei said, Li Chenzhou immediately nodded.

In fact, he also wanted to kill more zombies, after all, he had the Slaughter System. To improve his strength as quickly as possible, he needed to kill as much as possible.

"Let me have him!"

Seeing that Li Chenzhou was about to leave, Duan Lei quickly stepped forward, took the grizzly bear he was carrying, and smiled at Li Chenzhou.

"Okay! Be careful!"

Li Chenzhou nodded to Duan Lei and then rushed into the stairwell, entering the cinema on the sixth floor.

This time, Li Chenzhou wasn't holding back at all. The battle blade in his hand danced up and down, like pear blossoms in the wind, like swirling snowflakes. In front of him, the zombies, who had been crowded on one side of the screening room because of the summoning, began to die constantly and rapidly...

"Boss! What was that just now?"

At this moment, on the top floor, Zhao Dahai and the others, who had been panting like dead dogs after climbing up, finally caught their breath a little. Xiao Lü looked at Zhao Dahai and asked,

"Damn it, I couldn't see anything or hear any sound for a moment there, it was terrifying!"

"It was definitely a skill! That kid... he must be what they call an Enhancer in novels, right?"

Zhao Dahai looked at Xiao Lü, narrowing his eyes.

"Don't worry, I'll kill him one day!"

As he spoke, Zhao Dahai stood up, walked into the top floor, and entered their previous room. Immediately, Liu Yun's screams rang out, followed by the sound of clothes being torn...

"Xiao Lü! Was Boss an air conditioning installer before?"

Watching Zhao Dahai go inside, Guo Jianyong whispered to Xiao Lü.

"Yeah!"

Xiao Lü nodded.

"What's wrong? Looking down on air conditioning installers?"

"Don't misunderstand!"

Guo Jianyong quickly waved his hand.

"I'm just a student, and my family isn't well-off, so I have no right to look down on you! What I mean is..."

At this point, Guo Jianyong turned his head and looked at the room from which panting sounds were coming, and whispered,

"Isn't it... maybe it's not safe here right now? Should we persuade Boss to leave quickly? There are plenty of women here to play with. As long as we're alive, what kind of woman can't we play with?"

"Then why don't you go?"

Xiao Lü looked at Guo Jianyong, a sneer appearing in his eyes.

"Trying to use me as a pawn? Brother, you're a bit too naive! Let me tell you, don't try to get too close to Boss. Boss is very pragmatic. He'll keep whoever can help him, otherwise, he'll kill them directly!"

As he spoke, Xiao Lü pointed to the door.

"Like our manager, Liu. Why is she still alive? Because Boss needs her. She should be grateful she still has that hole, because if she were a man, she would have gone down with Old Wang a long time ago!"

After speaking, Xiao Lü patted Guo Jianyong on the shoulder.

"Brother, Boss brought you here, so you must have something that Boss values. Figure out what it is and show it without reservation. That way, you'll be useful in Boss's eyes and you'll have a better life!

"As for me, don't try to figure me out. I'm not an idiot. I know what I should and shouldn't do. If you treat me as an enemy, you'll be the first to die, do you believe it?"

"..."

Looking at Xiao Lü, Guo Jianyong remained silent for a long time. He had noticed that Xiao Lü seemed different from the others and was highly valued by Zhao Dahai, so he wanted to try and get him to cause Zhao Dahai dissatisfaction.

But now he realized that he hadn't even said anything, and Xiao Lü had already seen through his intentions. It seemed... this guy wasn't simple either!

"Pfft!"

The battle blade moved, and Li Chenzhou finally killed the last zombie on the sixth floor.

Of course, this "last zombie" was just the last one they could currently see.

Because of the Zombie King's summoning, the zombies had become much easier to deal with, because they wouldn't attack you proactively! This made killing zombies much simpler.

But at the same time, because they wouldn't be attracted by other things, the methods of using sounds or blood to attract them were also ineffective.

They couldn't kill the zombies hiding in the dark, but Li Chenzhou didn't really care, because what he wanted now was Slaughter Points. If this floor was cleared, there was still the next floor.

"Let's go! To the fifth floor!"

After clearing the cinema on the sixth floor, Li Chenzhou directly waved his hand to Duan Lei.

While Li Chenzhou was killing zombies, Duan Lei hadn't taken action because he had to carry two people. He hadn't used his talents or skills either. He had been watching below.

At this moment, hearing Li Chenzhou's words, Duan Lei suddenly said,

"Boss, I have an idea~!"
