NOVEL NEXT Chapter 9.1
Chen Luo obtained a small, pale white crystal from the forehead of a zombie maid. Such low-level crystals had been rare for Chen Luo to come across for a long time, as they were so fragile and basic that they were hardly seen even within six months.
Not to mention that 12 years later, any zombie encountered would be a definite boss-level threat, let alone one as easily dispatched as the one Chen Luo just faced.
Zombies were constantly becoming stronger.
After awakening their abilities, individuals could accelerate their progress by absorbing energy from the crystals or use it to hasten their recovery.
Chen Luo remembered in his previous life when he suddenly felt a mysterious energy within his body around ten o’clock, but at that time, he didn’t know what it was and had no idea how to use it.
He placed the pale white crystal into a small box that was already prepared within his space ability and then proceeded to stab the heads of Chen Jian’an and Chen Fei.
As expected, there was no crystal, as survivors would only have crystals appear in their minds after their awakening.
However, Chen Luo didn’t really care about it. Even if there was a crystal, it would be the lowest quality one, and there were plenty of zombies outside where he could easily obtain them.
After avenging himself, Chen Luo did not immediately leave. In about half an hour, he would awaken his abilities.
At the moment of awakening, his head would experience a short period of intense pain, so he decided to wait here for his abilities to awaken.
Chen Luo believed that the Dharma King would also awaken his abilities soon.
Previously, Chen Luo had asked the Dharma King to stay in the car and not come out. However, now Chen Luo went out to bring the Thunderbolt King inside.
Before he came out, the sky was clear, but now it was dark and gloomy, like the calm before a storm on a rainy day.
However, it wasn’t going to rain. This strange weather would last for three days before dissipating.
The Thunderbolt King, who was still in the car, felt uneasy as a young female zombie outside stared at him with dead eyes and kept roaring.
The Thunderbolt King thought, “If you have the guts, come in and face me instead of just blabbering outside.”
Upon seeing Chen Luo, the young female zombie turned her attention to him and started roaring at him.
However, the iron gate outside the house where Chen Jian’an was hiding was very sturdy, and the young female zombie couldn’t enter.
Chen Luo smiled and said, “Come on, let me help you out, little one.”
Approaching her, the young female zombie stretched out her hands, trying to grab Chen Luo through the gap in the iron gate.
Chen Luo said, “Here, have something delicious.”
Chen Luo took out an electric baton and approached the young female zombie. The zombie had no idea what the baton was and showed no signs of fear. In fact, she grabbed the baton with her own hands.
The iron gate rattled as the zombie’s body trembled violently from the shock of the electric baton. After a couple of seconds, the young female zombie collapsed to the ground, stiff and lifeless.
Chen Luo couldn’t help but marvel at how effective the electric baton was.
“Uncle helped you find release, so a little reward isn’t too much to ask, right?” Chen Luo said, addressing the lifeless young female zombie.
With no other zombies around, Chen Luo opened the iron gate with ease and retrieved the crystal from the young female zombie’s forehead. The Dharma King, who witnessed everything, was shocked and taken aback by Chen Luo’s brutality.
Chen Luo closed the iron gate and then released the Dharma King from the car, leading him inside the building.

Upon seeing the bodies of Chen Jian’an and his two companions, the Thunderbolt King was visibly frightened and stuck close to Chen Luo for safety.
With some free time on his hands, Chen Luo rummaged through the room, finding Chen Jian’an’s stash of good cigarettes and alcohol. Despite not being a heavy smoker himself, Chen Luo knew plenty of chain smokers who would appreciate the gift.
Many chain smokers feel more distressed when they run out of cigarettes than when they run out of food.
Taking an apple, Chen Luo slowly peeled it while the frightened Thunderbolt King leaned closely against him.
Chen Luo smiled, unconcerned. Dogs also have emotions. If he hadn’t experienced a lifetime of events, he might have been more uncomfortable than the Thunderbolt King at the sight of this scene.
