Chapter 60: Next Steps
The Blue-Skinned Evolution Zombie tried to escape after realizing that it would definitely die if it went head-to-head with Bai Ze and his party, but that didn't necessarily mean it was a sapient being. Probably just a fighting instinct, the Evolved Zombie can sense which battles they can win and which ones they don't.
Now that the world has become primitive, it is easy to speculate that the Evolved Zombies, as officially evolved creatures, can command the zombies to a certain extent, but only in a relatively small number. This is a natural fact, just as an adult lion is the leader of a pack of lions, leading a smaller or weaker lion.
Probably because the Evolution Zombie didn't want other zombies to be on the fourth floor, because the existence of this mutated plant was a treasure for it, probably because it was worried that the plant would be taken away.
But this small plant is still very suspicious, Bai Ze is about 80% sure that it is a treasure that is beneficial to the body, and the other 20% is sure that he does not dare to eat its fruit.
80% is a lot higher than 20%, but that 20% is not 0%, if Bai Ze guesses wrong, just like Linglong said, his body is likely to turn into a blood mist, which is the ending he doesn't want to see.
Isn't it ridiculous to eat an unknown plant and be poisoned instead of killed in battle? Of course, Bai Ze had no intention of dying. But if he really wants to die, he doesn't want that pathetic death.
"Linglong, don't you have a way to know if this mutant plant is good or bad?" Bai Ze looked at her, scratching his head and not knowing what to do.
Linglong shrugged her shoulders and said helplessly: "I am not an omniscient existence. Bai Ze, I told you before that each world is a different creature, and I can only use the knowledge of other worlds to help you...... As for what is unique and native to this world, that is what you have to discover for yourself. ”
Bai Ze was stunned for a moment, then smiled reluctantly and shook his head slightly.
Forget it, I'll figure it out. Bai Ze thought as he took out an empty bottle and put the dirt from the other plants in the room inside. Then carefully pluck the roots of the mutated little plant and move it to its new home.
Bai Ze made a few holes in the plastic bottle with the tip of the treasure glove in his left hand, and then placed the bottle containing the plant in the small pocket of his backpack, making sure to leave a small opening for air and sunlight to pass through.
Until he arrives at a safe place, this is also what Bai Ze can do for the time being.
"Bai Ze, didn't we say we were going to act together?"
Just as Bai Ze finished cleaning up the mutated little plant, an indifferent voice sounded at the door of the room, with a hint of reproach.
Bai Ze didn't look back, he already knew who the cold and calm voice belonged to.
He slowly stood up, threw his backpack over his shoulder, turned around and smiled, "I see that you seem to know each other, and I don't want to disturb your warm meeting." ”
"You ......" Shangguan Bingxue wanted to say something, but he didn't want to linger for too long.
Seeing that she was silent, Bai Ze couldn't help but feel a little better, and walked to the door without saying a word.
"Wait a minute!"
Bai Ze wanted to leave because he had something important to do, but he was stopped.
Bai Ze frowned and turned around, looked at a girl he didn't know, and looked at him gratefully.
"Do I know you?"
"No...... You just saved me. Li Na walked over and thanked him with tears in her eyes, "Thank you really, very much today!" If you hadn't killed those horrible zombies and driven that blue-skinned zombie out of the building. I'm afraid I'll just be stuck in that dorm room and starve to death. ”
Bai Ze saw that there was not just a girl, but also three nodded, looking at him with gratitude on their faces. After a few seconds, he remembered that these girls in the room were the four survivors in the dormitory when he kicked the evolution zombie away.
"Ah, that thing? It's nothing. Bai Ze smiled slightly, pointed at Shangguan Bingxue, and said slowly: "If you want to thank you, thank you to the student union president over there, I owe her a favor before, and she used this favor to ask me for help, otherwise it is unlikely that I would have risked fighting with that evolutionary zombie." ”
Bai Ze disagreed, pointing directly at the real "heroes" here. However, the eyes of the four girls looking at him did not change...... If they had learned that Bai Ze had thrown a person alive into a pile of zombies and eaten him a few hours ago, I wonder if they would have felt that kind of gratitude.
Everyone can do whatever they want, though, and even more so in this new world.
"That's right, Shangguan Bingxue." Bai Ze suddenly remembered something, turned around and was about to leave, paused, and said, "Tomorrow, I will start to open the road to the south and leave the university." ”
Shangguan Bingxue didn't need Bai Ze to say much, he also knew what he meant. She was silent for a long time, as if she had considered a few things, then looked up at him again, and said slowly, "Why don't you wait another day or two?" ”
"Oh? Why? Bai Ze raised his eyebrows, a little puzzled, but he was not angry, because the current Shangguan Bingxue was already able to maintain his sanity in most cases. So, he is willing to listen to her opinions and ideas.
"Remember that giant beetle? We're still going to pack it up first, and although we're going to clear the road to the exit, it's going to take at least a day or two to find other food. Shangguan Bingxue paused and continued: "Moreover, Qiao Long's place has the key to the school bus, as long as we go to the parking lot, we can drive away. But even then, we need to make some adjustments beforehand. ”
Bai Ze listened to Shangguan Bingxue's reason, his eyes lit up slightly, he heard something more important than beetle meat.
