Chapter 12 Threat Elimination

【Records Department】

This department does not need to control equipment within the research institute, nor does it need to perform any special processing for experimental scenarios.

All they need to do is analyze in real time and record the entire process in detail. If they identify potential dangers in advance, they will immediately report them to their superiors to ensure the overall stability of the operation.

The office is equipped with multiple portable blackboards.

The theme of this practical activity was written on the blackboard at the very center: “Cultivating Zombies*”.

*The difficulty of this topic is subject to change and will be determined before midnight based on the participants’ subjective behavior.

Currently, the staff in the recording department have become excited, and they are gradually relaxing both mentally and physically.

This book is first published online by 𝕥𝕨𝕜𝕒𝕟.𝕔𝕠𝕞.

The subjective actions demonstrated by the four young people greatly reduced the difficulty of the topic, significantly improved the stability of the practice, and estimated the pass rate to be over 90%, so we could even start celebrating early.

The department head, also with a smile, affixed a red label reading “Ceremony Interrupted” to the blackboard.

【 Ravenna – Master Bedroom】

Two girls, soaked with a mixture of sweat and rain, were taking out spare clothes from their respective backpacks.

They attended the same school for kindergarten, primary school, and junior high school.

Unfortunately, the two, who should have been together in high school, had to transfer schools due to some incident. In the past two years, they have had significantly less time together, only able to see each other on weekends when there are no tutoring classes.

Girls experience the greatest changes during this age group.

When the two took off their shirts in the master bedroom, Wu Wen was also shocked by the view in front of her.

Anna not only has a height and muscle mass far exceeding the average for girls, but her physical development is also above average.

“It’s been two years since I last saw you, you’ve grown so much!”

Although the two usually acted very generously, Anna still subconsciously put her hands in front of her and glanced at Wu Wen with a strange look.

Just as Anna was about to say something, she suddenly froze, because she saw something strange about Wu Wen.

” Wu Wen, what’s wrong with your health?”

“Oh? Oh, you mean this… The tutoring my dad arranged for me is already at the highest level. The teacher is very strict, and it’s inevitable that he’ll accidentally hurt me.”

“This wasn’t an accidental injury, was it?”

Anna wiped the water off her body with a tissue as she approached and carefully examined the bluish-purple marks, as well as many scars.

Just as Anna was trying to get a better look, Wu Wen had already put on a black short-sleeved shirt.

“The human body is incredibly strong, Anna, you know that better than I do. As long as it helps me grow, I don’t mind going a little too far. After all, what we’ll be facing in the future won’t stop just because it leaves scars.”

” Wu Wen, isn’t your uncle being too strict with you?”

“Dad is just concerned about me. After all, I made a mistake, and the only way to catch up with the top students is through tutoring. If I could have kept up back then, I could be in the same school as you… But it’s good, you wouldn’t meet an interesting guy like Luo Di there.”

“That’s true, this guy is indeed a bit special.”

Anna also changed into a white short-sleeved shirt.

When the two opened the shared map, the glowing dots representing the two boys had already moved towards Ravenna.

The class monitor had already put on a raincoat and had taken out two extra to give to the boys who were returning.

“Shall we go downstairs to pick them up? If they really have disposed of the body, they’ll probably still have to deal with the remaining tree in the backyard. Luo Di really made the right choice buying that chainsaw.”

Gather in the hall,

When everyone met again, the class monitor quickly noticed a slight discomfort on Gao Yuxuan’s face and asked him curiously:

“How did you two dispose of that body? You got it done so quickly.”

“I threw it away,” Luo Di replied.

The squad leader nodded. “You found a slope and just threw it down the mountain? No wonder you guys were so fast. By the way, what are you planning to do with the trees in the backyard?”

“Cut it down.”

Since everyone agreed, they went to the backyard again.

The sudden downpour interrupted the flies’ feast and masked some of the pungent smell.

The heat generated by sawing wood is also quickly carried away by the heavy rain, greatly reducing the probability of an explosion.

The foreman attached LED strips to the surface of the tree trunk to prevent ” corners ” from forming during the cutting process.

When the high-frequency rotating saw teeth fall on the surface of the tree trunk…

(ah!)

Everyone heard a faint scream, seemingly coming from the tree, and the entire locust tree began to sway slightly.

Luo Di did not stop what he was doing and continued cutting.

Occasionally, foul-smelling juice would splatter out, as if blood had been gushed out after a blood vessel had been cut.

Every now and then, a large number of leaves would suddenly fall from above, each one seemingly carrying a painful human face.

Less than ten minutes,

The entire locust tree crashed to the ground.

The cross-section of its trunk did not have a ring-like structure, but was completely moldy and rotten, covered with dense small holes, which was enough to make one’s scalp tingle.

The tree is already rotten to this extent; it should have withered long ago.

…

Four raincoats were hung in the front yard, with rainwater washing away the stains.

Outside the master bedroom door,

Two girls were waiting, and this time it was Luo Di’s turn to change clothes inside.

Gao Yuxuan stuffed the clothes she had taken off directly into a garbage bag and tied it tightly, as if they were so filthy that there was no need to wash them.

Just as he got up to put the trash by the door, his gaze was immediately drawn to some kind of’spectacle’.

It was a muscular outline that looked like a painting or something you could only see on a TV show. The back muscles were completely out of place for someone of that age, and from certain angles, they could even vaguely outline a ferocious human face.

Although Gao Yuxuan’s physical education score ranked third in the class, there was a significant gap between him and the first and second place scores.

He never expected Luo Di to have such a physique. No wonder he could always maintain the number one ranking. Moreover, he knew that Luo Di’s family background was very ordinary. He must have gone through a lot of hardships to obtain such a physique. He felt more respect for him.

It was 5:00 PM.

Since setting off early this morning, the four of them have only drunk a few sips of water and have basically had no nutritional intake whatsoever.

Even though they were among the best of the young people, their bodies could hardly keep up, and fatigue and hunger struck at the same time.

Knowing the total duration of the event in advance, everyone packed some food from the supermarket in their backpacks, including but not limited to various self-heating convenience foods and energy snacks.

” Luo Di, yours.”

Luo Di had just eaten two wafer biscuits when the class monitor personally brought over a steaming bowl of self-heating rice.

Of course, he wasn’t the only one; the class monitor prepared self-heating rice for everyone.

“Thanks.”

As the warm, delicious food entered his mouth, Luo Di reviewed everything that had happened that day, trying to deduce the ultimate threat posed by the simulation. But as his thoughts deepened, a worm-like weariness immediately began to stir in his brain; he was simply too sleepy.

Luo Di could only temporarily abandon his thoughts and prepare to take a short rest after the meal.

Anna, on the other end, seemed unsatisfied with just eating. She rummaged through her backpack and pulled out two bottles of high-concentration vodka with Russian writing on them.

“Want a drink? I just got caught in the rain, this will warm me up.”

Everyone naturally shook their heads. Putting aside the fact that he was underage, drinking alcohol would affect the thinking and actions of most people.

But for Anna, who has a pure bloodline and grew up drinking at home, eating without alcohol is like not eating at all. Alcohol seems to give her a better state of mind and allow her to rest better.

“Hey~ Nobody drinks? Then I’ll drink by myself.”

Anna didn’t mind at all and simply put the bottle to her lips.

A burning sensation ran down her throat, and her face immediately flushed. Her posture gradually became less feminine.

As she ate a few bites of rice and prepared to drink her fourth sip,

despair!

A series of indistinct “snap” sounds were received by her cochlea, instantly sending chills down her spine and nearly making her throw the bottle away.

Anna glanced at the other people eating; they didn’t seem to have heard the sound.

Is it because of drinking?

She decisively sealed the bottle with a cork, ending her drinking session for the day.
