RTIWTLITEOTW Chapter 17

Jiang Xianchuan was dumbfounded by Li Lingyu’s action. He immediately went over and looked at Li Lingyu, “Are you crazy?”

Li Lingyu didn’t say anything, just pulled the knife out again, waiting for Jiang Xianchuan’s next words.

Looking at him like this, Jiang Xianchuan felt a mix of anger and heartache. He couldn’t help but gently place his hand on his face, his tone softening: “Don’t ever do that again, okay?”

Seeing that the wound hadn’t disappeared this time, Jiang Xianchuan became a little anxious, his brows furrowing together, “Why is the wound still there? Does it hurt?”

His voice was full of worry and anxiety, as if he himself was the one injured.

Jiang Xianchuan carefully stretched out his finger, gently touching the skin around the wound, trying to feel his pain level.

However, when he saw the man looking at him with an innocent expression, the anger in his heart was ignited once again.

“Why are you so stupid! How could you just stab yourself!” Jiang Xianchuan’s voice was mixed with helplessness, but more of it was heartache.

He knew that although Li Lingyu was very strong, he was sometimes a bit stubborn. Seeing a trace of grievance flash in the man’s eyes, Jiang Xianchuan’s heart instantly softened.

He sighed and said softly, “Forget it, I’m not angry with you anymore. Don’t do this again in the future, don’t make me worry.” With that, he carefully wiped the bloodstains from the man’s face.

Shi Yi shook her head helplessly as she watched the two of them, her tone carrying a hint of speechlessness: “You two, stop being all lovey-dovey there. Time is tight, we have to leave quickly, otherwise the zombies will catch up later.” After speaking, she turned and walked towards the door.

Just as the three of them walked out of the room, they heard a low roar coming from the right.

They looked closely and saw a group of big-headed zombies slowly climbing up from the emergency exit. Their hideous and distorted faces and foul-smelling bodies made them shudder.

Jiang Xianchuan frowned and said in a low voice, “The situation is not good. These big-headed zombies seem to be more difficult to deal with than ordinary zombies. Everyone, be careful!” As he spoke, he tightened his grip on the knife in his hand, preparing to meet the upcoming battle.

“Left! There’s another safety exit on the left!” Li Lingyu pointed to the corridor on the left with a nervous expression.

After hearing his instructions, the two of them walked towards that direction without hesitation, their steps hurried and firm, as if they were racing against time.

Soon, they arrived at the safety exit. There were no big-headed zombies in sight at this exit for the time being, which made them breathe a sigh of relief.

The three of them looked at each other, a trace of joy flashing in their eyes. They knew that if they couldn’t leave here as soon as possible, they might never have another chance. So, they immediately opened the door and ran down the stairs.

Every step was filled with tension and expectation, and they didn’t dare to relax in the slightest.

Finally, they ran to the first floor and saw the outside world. However, they didn’t relax their vigilance, because those big-headed zombies were dropping one after another from the windows of the corridor.

Afterwards, they slowly stood up on the ground, let out a roar, and ran towards the three of them. Li Lingyu took out his knife and solved the nearest one, but the liquid oozing from the blisters on this big-headed zombie stuck to Li Lingyu’s clothes.

Li Lingyu looked at the disgusting liquid, feeling a burst of disgust in his heart, but he still endured the discomfort and continued to fight the other zombies.

However, after a while, the clothes stained with the liquid began to smoke and emit a pungent smell. Li Lingyu looked down and found that the piece of clothing had been slowly corroded.

He was shocked, knowing that this liquid was corrosive. If he didn’t deal with it in time, it would probably cause him harm. So, he decisively took off his clothes immediately.

“The liquid on these zombies is corrosive!”

Li Lingyu threw the clothes he took off to the side, and then continued to fight the zombies. The knife in his hand swung faster and harder, each knife accurately hitting the vital points of the zombies.
