TSIAGBICATMWI Chapter 146

Chapter 146: Acknowledge Your Brother When You Should

Shen Ye put his legs down, leaned forward, and clasped his hands on his knees. He sighed and said, “Okay, let’s change the subject. How long have you been here?”

Xie YunChuan quickly composed himself, his voice returning to normal. “Just arrived yesterday.”

“How is it?”

“Fought with that zombie last night.”

“Won?”

“Obviously.”

“But the zombie is still alive.”

“I’m still alive, aren’t I?”

“Living is winning?”

So, after a fight between a person and a zombie, they discovered that neither could do anything to the other, and thus decided to let each other go and coexist peacefully? Was that even possible?

Xie YunChuan raised an eyebrow. “Otherwise?”

As a level four ability user, he was able to save his life under a level six zombie and even drive her away. How could that not be considered a victory?

What Xie YunChuan didn’t know was that Li Meng had spent almost half of her energy last night maintaining the illusion from collapsing. When fighting with him, she really didn’t show her true strength.

Shen Ye: “Okay.” It seemed that there was some error in the information from the research institute. The zombies here were not that strong.

Very good, Xie YunChuan led Shen Ye astray. Li Meng, a perfectly fine level six zombie, was reduced to nothing to be afraid of in the mouths of two mere level four ability users. Ignorance makes people blindly confident!

Xie YunChuan continued to ask: “What information did they give you over there? Do you have a way to break the base’s illusion?”

Shen Ye took out an ordinary-looking pair of glasses and threw them to Xie YunChuan. “Here, try these on.”

Without a second thought, Xie YunChuan immediately put them on. In an instant, the world spun, and the universe shifted. The originally clean and comfortable room turned into a dusty, broken-walled ruin. Outside the window, the clean streets were littered with broken clothes and bones. A thin layer of black mist filled the gloomy sky, oppressive and bloody.

Shen Ye wiggled his body and said with a somewhat boastful tone, “How is it? Have you seen the benefits of technology?”

Xie YunChuan took off the glasses. Although it was an illusion, he had to admit that the age-old saying ‘out of sight, out of mind’ still had some truth to it.

“Do they also research zombies like Li Meng over there?” Otherwise, they wouldn’t have already developed glasses targeting Li Meng’s illusion skills.

“I wouldn’t dare to say everything, but at least they have research on all kinds of zombies far beyond what you’ve seen. Otherwise, do you think Li City would be the only impregnable place on the continent not invaded by zombies if it were really just a bunch of useless dignitaries?”

You know, clear water has no fish, but bad waters can’t raise good fish either.

Admittedly, the people who can enter Li City are all from powerful families and have power, but everything is just a balancing act after weighing the pros and cons. Only with transactions and exchanges of interests can there be a continuous flow of human and material resources into Li City, right?

“Then do you have a way to deal with Li Meng?”

“Isn’t she no match for you? Do you still need me?” Didn’t he just say he won?

“Last night, she seemed to have some concerns and didn’t use her full strength.”

Although Xie YunChuan didn’t know why Li Meng was holding back, he wouldn’t be stupid enough to think that a level six zombie only had the skills she showed last night.

Shen Ye nodded in praise. “Well, you’re not too conceited. It’s not that she didn’t use her full strength, but only used half of her strength.”

However, even if Li Meng didn’t use her full strength, the fact that Xie YunChuan was able to drive her away while keeping himself intact meant that either Xie YunChuan was too strong or Li Meng was too weak, perhaps a bit of both.

In reality, Xie YunChuan wasn’t completely unscathed. He was injured in many places, but who told him to have a healing artifact like Luo Shuyou by his side!

“How could that be?” Xie YunChuan was really shocked this time. Not using her full strength was understandable, but only using half of her strength was a bit bizarre.

What reason would make her hold back so much? It couldn’t be that she was showing mercy, right? There’s no such thing as not killing zombies.

Shen Ye looked at everything around him as beautiful as before the end of the world and said, “As you can see, this huge base is full of illusions. Do you think it’s easy to maintain such an illusion?”

This little zombie was born with the talent of creating scenery due to her obsession, and she is also strong because of her obsession. The current illusion of the base is the embodiment of her obsession. If it weren’t a matter of life and death, she wouldn’t let this illusion break down.

Xie YunChuan: “…”

“I thought this thing was a one-time deal.”

Who knew she had to work so hard to maintain it? What was Li Meng, a zombie, scheming?

Shen Ye reached out and covered a cough by his mouth, saying a little unnaturally, “Cough, although the end of the world is not short of myths, some things still need to be measured by common sense.”

“For example?”

Judging from Shen Ye’s expression, he also knew that his sentence was ridiculous!

In this end of the world full of magic, you’re talking to me about common sense?

What is common sense? Common sense is that people don’t turn into unkillable monsters, common sense is that people don’t inexplicably gain the ability to control wind and fire, climb walls, and be immediately healed and become lively as long as they have a breath left…

Shen Ye said: “For example, Li Meng needs to continuously input energy into it to maintain this illusion.” Of course, she can’t draw all her power to concentrate on dealing with Xie YunChuan.

“So, if we break her illusion, can we force her to use her full strength and fight us?”

“Theoretically, yes.”

“In reality?”

“In reality, we are likely to be unilaterally crushed and strangled into one…”

“Then what should we do?”

Shen Ye: “…”

“You’re asking me?”

Xie YunChuan said with confidence: “If I don’t ask you, who should I ask? Your research institute has so many secret weapons, who should I rely on at this time if not you?”

Shen Ye’s tone was raised a bit by his crooked reasoning: “Hey~! You’re the one who keeps saying you want to kill Li Meng, what does it have to do with me? When did I say I wanted to kill her? Why rely on me?”

Xie YunChuan looked at Shen Ye’s eyes with cold eyes and said leisurely, “Because I’m your brother.”

One sentence silenced Shen Ye. Heh~! He knew he was his brother at this time. Xie YunChuan was really wicked.

“Okay! Brother advises you, don’t bother with this mess, get out of it quickly.”

This is not just a simple matter of killing a level six zombie like Li Meng.

Many of the people who are controlled by Li Meng to kill and eat meat are even killing each other. When they regain consciousness, they will see that the big fish and meat they eat every day are their own blood relatives. At that time, no one can say for sure what kind of distortions humanity will twist into…
