NOVEL NEXT Chapter 81 Can I Try On Your Glasses?
Lily was immediately dumbfounded by the sight of the approaching zombies. She stared at them blankly, and her anger started to burn within her. She hated David, and she hated everyone here. She swore to find an opportunity to kill them all!
But her immediate priority was to deal with the zombies in front of her. Just as she was at a loss, Brian swiftly rushed towards her after evading an attack from a zombie.
"Open up quickly!" he shouted at Lily, and the seven blades in his hand instantly pierced the back of the zombie. A black, putrid smell instantly filled the air. Watching Brian kill the zombie in front of him, David nodded with a smile. More and more zombies poured in from outside, to the point where even Arnold joined the fight.
Brian protected Lily while facing off against wave after wave of ferocious zombies. Soon, he was nearly exhausted. He secretly kept an eye on David, his gaze filled with a murderous intent. If it weren't for the fact that they hadn't obtained the supplies yet, he would have rushed up and killed the guy long ago.
Watching the two of them in a sorry state, David shook his head. He knew that the people in this world were strange and unpredictable. Everyone had their own agenda, making this eerie and ever-changing world even more dangerous.
For those who had designs on him, he would slowly torment them. He knew that if he wanted someone dead, he had to drive them to madness first. When they were on the brink of insanity, that would be the starting point of their death. In David's eyes, Brian and Lily were approaching that point. He even began to take some interest in them.
As more and more zombies appeared, Arnold also began to struggle. David gestured to Sally, and she nodded in response before rushing into the midst of the zombie horde. David continued to watch Brian and Lily's poor acting skills. With Sally joining the battle, the entire battlefield underwent an obvious change in an instant.
Sally wielded lightning bolts that resembled dancing dragons, constantly striking at the zombies. The sound of thunderous explosions and the agonized cries of the zombies rang in everyone's ears. Under Sally's manipulation, the lightning bolts simultaneously hit the zombies, and in the blink of an eye, a large number of zombies fell to the ground. David looked at Sally and nodded in satisfaction.
Brian and Lily finally had a chance to catch their breath. They sat in place, breathing heavily. When they saw Sally standing there, constantly unleashing lightning, they were shocked! They hadn't expected Sally to be so formidable, instantly dealing with the zombies they had struggled to attract.
At the same time, Brian looked at David. When he noticed David smiling at him, he awkwardly smiled back and then stood up from the ground. He walked over to David's side. "David, will Sally get hurt?" he asked, furrowing his brow and pretending to be concerned.
Implicitly, he wanted to get David involved in the fight so that he and Lily would have a chance to plunder the house.
David shook his head. "To her, these zombies are like ants. I'm not worried at all. The reason I let Sally join the fight is that I know the power of her level-three ability. Thunderstrike,It's immensely powerful. These low-level zombies are no match for her. Even if anything unexpected happens, I can step in and deal with it at any time. Additionally, I want her to gain some practical experience through this opportunity and improve her own strength."
Upon hearing David's words, Brian was completely helpless. As long as David was around, he and Lily couldn't make a move. So, he could only helplessly furrow his brow and glanced at Lily behind him. She wore a gloomy expression but had no solution either. David noticed their expressions and simply smiled faintly, not bothering to look at them again.
Soon, Sally and David managed to kill all the zombies. The air became filled with a foul smell. At this moment, David walked slowly to the center of the battlefield, with the system's voice continuously sounding in his ear.
[Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining one primary crystal! ]
[Congratulations to the host for triggering a hundredfold critical hit and obtaining one hundred primary crystals! ]
[Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining ten intermediate crystals! ]
[Congratulations to the host for triggering a hundredfold critical hit and obtaining one thousand primary crystals! ]
After this battle, David stood there and gained tens of thousands of crystals. He couldn't help but smile as he looked at Brian and Lily. If it weren't for them attracting so many zombies, he probably wouldn't have obtained this much loot. Meanwhile, the two of them could only awkwardly smile, trying to conceal their inner anger and disappointment.
After clearing the battlefield, everyone returned to the bedroom. "David, we were impulsive today. We're really sorry," Lily spoke up first.
David simply smiled and looked at her. "Just rest at home, Lily. I'll take Brian out."
After saying that, he glanced at Arnold and Sally again, gesturing for them to keep an eye on Lily. They silently nodded. Brian didn't know what David had in mind, but to conceal their true identities and plans, Brian had no choice but to follow David outside. The two of them walked in silence on the street, one in front of the other.
The cold wind on the street howled in their ears. When they reached a row of houses, David stopped and looked towards a corner, then spoke up, "Come out, hiding in the dark is not a good habit."
Upon hearing David's words, a figure in the darkness hesitated. He had hidden in the farthest corner, relying on the concealed wall. However, he didn't anticipate that David had night vision goggles, allowing him to see everything clearly.
Danny listened to David's words and his face darkened. He reluctantly held the back of his head with both hands and walked out. "Can you see me?" Danny said, glancing at the glasses David was wearing. He vividly remembered that the last time he saw David, he didn't have these glasses. Could it be that his glasses were the same as his brother's, capable of...
With these thoughts in mind, Danny took a few steps forward, appearing in the sight of both of them. Brian became wary upon seeing him, but Danny simply glanced at him casually and smiled, "Bringing someone along this time, huh?"
David didn't answer him but shifted his gaze to a convenience store. The store's doors and windows were intact, and even the entrance was locked, looking undamaged. In this apocalyptic world, it was rare to see a shop in such good condition.
"Hey, can you let me try on your glasses?" Danny approached David and asked.
David hesitated for a moment. Why did this person immediately fixate on his glasses? "No, you can't," David directly refused.
Danny showed a hint of disappointment and then asked, "That's fine if you won't give them to me. Just tell me what your glasses can do." As he finished speaking, Danny's eyes showed anticipation as he looked at David.
