No, thinking that the original owner was being treated like a fool even felt like he’s giving the original owner too much credit.
Yan Ci clearly treated the original owner as an ATM, the kind where he could easily get a large sum of money with just a word.
One should know the original owner’s monthly living expenses were not low, but Yan Ci would always take almost half of it.
Regardless of the reason, Yan Ci truly behaved like someone in love.
He looked as if he couldn’t survive without the original owner.
And he’s a bit crazy.
Ruan Qing actually hoped that Yan Ci simply saw the original owner as an ATM; otherwise, these two were simply the worst combination.
They had directly triggered the doomsday death flag.
During the zombie outbreak at school, Yan Ci was accompanying the original owner to class, protecting him.
Otherwise, the original owner would probably have been bitten to death when the zombies broke into the classroom because he ran up to express concern for others.
After the two discovered the situation at school, they hastily and clumsily fled.
After all, the school’s population was too dense; it’s not a suitable place to stay for long.
While the two were escaping from the school, the original owner’s attempt to save someone resulted in the bitten person infiltrating the group, inadvertently causing the death of quite a few people.
Although the other person concealed the fact of being bitten, the original owner saved the person.
Everyone blamed the deaths of those people on the original owner, and many in the group harbored dissatisfaction and resentment towards him.
Even those who were once helped by the original owner.
After all, most humans were selfish; when their lives were threatened, those small favors became less important.
If this were a movie or a TV drama, the original owner and his love-stricken pursuer might just manage to survive until the grand finale by stepping on the lives of their teammates.
But this was in an infinite horror game’s instance, to some extent, a form of reality.
Inside the instance, no one would be foolish enough to keep him and the love-stricken pursuer around.
Even if ordinary NPCs could tolerate it, players definitely wouldn’t.
In the struggle for survival on the brink of life and death, players had long lost their human compassion. If there was a self-righteous saint on the team who might drag down the whole group, players undoubtedly struck without hesitation.
Although the instance prohibited players from attacking NPCs, in this apocalyptic world, getting rid of a person was as simple as it could be.
The most ideal scenario was that players simply ignored him, and if he fell into danger, no one would come to his rescue.
Clearly, this time Ruan Qing not only stood against the NPCs but also found himself in opposition to the players.
Moreover, there were just too many people in the apocalypse. Unless someone was isolated or in a small group, even four thousand points wouldn’t be enough for him to maintain his character setting.
Strange.
It felt like... the game’s malice towards him had increased a bit.
Ruan Qing pursed his lips; the best situation now was to find an opportunity to separate from Yan Ci.
Yan Ci was like a rabid dog, even before the apocalypse, he was somewhat reckless when it came to fights.
Especially in the apocalypse.
It’s important to note that there were no moral or legal constraints in the apocalypse, and wealth had turned into worthless paper. Could the little love he held in his heart restrain him?
Absolutely not.
Parting ways with him would actually improve the situation.
A powerless ‘saint’ posed no threat or harm to the group.
Teammates could simply ignore him, and he couldn’t possibly engage in brainless activities like secretly letting people in.
Being a “saint” would be just for show.
But for now, the most important thing was to find a weapon for self-defense.
And to try out what the situation was with that side quest.
The side quest only mentioned earning points by killing zombies but didn’t specify how many zombies would yield how many points.
It seemed he needed to find out through his own experimentation.
This might be a good opportunity to farm points.
As Ruan Qing sat in a corner, lost in thought, a series of banging sounds echoed not far away.
The sound immediately attracted the attention of everyone present, including Ruan Qing.
Ruan Qing lifted his head and looked towards the source of the noise.
They were currently in a supermarket, and outside the glass doors, several people were frantically banging on the entrance. Fear and panic were evident on their faces, and they occasionally looked around as they continued to pound on the door.
“Open the door!!!”
“Please, open the door! Let us in!”
“We haven’t been bitten by zombies! Please open the door! Let us in, okay? We’re begging you!”
At this moment, there were about dozens of people in the supermarket, all from different places, including social elites, troublemakers, and mostly students.
Because this area was near Ruan Qing’s university.
Many classmates had just run out of school.
Although others’ faces showed reluctance, after hesitating for a few seconds, they ultimately gritted their teeth and looked away.
The supermarket’s glass door wasn’t easy to close; they had jammed it with something, and it would be inconvenient to open it.
Moreover, the people outside had bloodstains on them, and no one knew whose blood it was. If someone concealed being bitten, then everyone in the supermarket would be in danger.
So the best choice was not to open the door.
There were other hiding places nearby; the people outside could choose to go elsewhere.
Most people thought this way, even the students who had just run out of the university.
But that group of students subconsciously looked at the young man in the corner and then froze.
Even Yan Ci, who was standing next to the young man, was the same.
The young man sitting in the corner had picturesque features, phoenix eyes slightly raised, forming a charming curve.
This kind of appearance should have been full of charm, but the young man wasn’t like that. Instead, he gave off a clean and gentle feeling.
His delicate face showed no signs of aggression.
It was the kind of warmth that felt like sunlight shining on the body. In this crazy world, it seemed to be the only warmth, making people unconsciously yearn for it.
It made people subconsciously not so afraid of zombies.
It also made people subconsciously less resistant to the young man helping others, regardless of the situation.
As if the young man was meant to be like this, compassionately looking down on all living beings.
Looking at him, the classmates couldn’t come back to their senses for a long time, and Shi Qing seemed... to become even more attractive.
Ruan Qing, who was suddenly looked at: “...”
Why were they looking at him like that?
Ruan Qing saw all the students looking at him, and for a moment, he didn’t quite react.
He glanced at the few people outside the door, and it took a second for him to comprehend.
He was now the ‘saint’, and he couldn’t possibly remain indifferent to such a situation.
The problem was, if he spoke up for the people outside the door, the people inside the supermarket might just throw him out directly.
Apparently, this instance was still a face-to-face encounter with death from the beginning.
But not saying anything would definitely break the character setting.
There were dozens of people inside the supermarket, deducting a hundred points from each person. The just-acquired four thousand points would undoubtedly be gone.
And this was just after entering the instance.
He simply didn’t have that many points to deduct.
No, thinking that the original owner was being treated like a fool even felt like he’s giving the original owner too much credit.
