I am a reincarnation player.

Chapter 17: Risking Life (Revised)

The whimpering sound, the crackling sound of nails scraping against the hard wall, and the sound of the floor breaking under the weight, all sank into Yuuki's ears with the night wind.

He leaned over and looked down. Just one glance made his heart ache instantly.

Just as he was recovering his strength, a real tide of corpses had already formed. Looking down, it was all pitch black. Under the shining of the red moon, it looked like a constantly surging dark red tide.

They climbed up along the outer wall, gradually forming a small hill, and now almost reached the third floor.

"Come here, we need to discuss this. We can't go on like this." Li Dan clapped his hands and gathered everyone together. He glanced around and a look of disappointment appeared on his face again.

Most of the people looked dumbfounded with fear, their facial muscles trembling unconsciously, as if they had been deprived of the ability to think. Only the black-haired boy lowered his head in deep thought, but his trembling hands holding the corners of his clothes betrayed him.

"What's the point of discussing this? Just charge out. You and I will join forces. We can't stop the zombies at this stage!" Thomas growled.

"Then what should we do? I have already promised you just now." The OL beauty asked in a crying voice, looking pitiful.

"I didn't promise you would survive. Besides, you just licked it a few times. Do you really think it's inlaid with gold?" Thomas didn't bother to care. He glanced at the other two fiercely, "You didn't pay enough for the deposit. And you, you are so reserved. I'm not interested in you even if you take off your clothes now."

"I'll give you $100 million when I get back!"

"Money is useless to a dead person. How about paying the deposit you gave me before and I'll chop off your head with a knife. It's guaranteed to be painless. It's better than being chewed by a zombie. Am I honest?"

Fu Ge stopped talking immediately, but his slightly fat cheeks trembled even more violently, looking a little fierce and humble. The housewife just kept coughing, looking completely frightened, and kept looking at Li Dan.

Li Dan didn't want to interrupt the infighting of this small group, so he quietly glanced at the other three people.

The blonde girl's eyes were still clear and stupid, as if she didn't understand the current situation; the black-haired girl pretended to be calm, trying her best to hide her helplessness; only the young man named Yuki frowned slightly, as if he wanted to say something but didn't dare to.

"The reincarnation game doesn't care about qualifications, so feel free to say whatever you want to say." Li Dan said with encouragement. For some reason, he always cared about this young man.

"Well, I just want to remind you to hurry up. Zombies are not the most deadly." Yuki raised his hand hesitantly and pointed at his wrist.

The watch cover was covered with cracks, but the hour hand inside continued to turn.

"You go on."

"Well, it's 7:30 in the morning now. The monster appeared before at around 4 in the morning. We don't have much time left."

As soon as the words fell, the only sound on the rooftop was panting, and everyone's face turned a little paler.

Yes, follow tip 4, and gifts will be delivered at regular intervals. The time may not be fixed, but it will definitely be soon.

"Li Dan, do you want to die with these idiots?" Thomas' voice became more rapid as if he was pricked by a needle in the butt.

"I, this..."

"Mr. Thomas, with all due respect to you, it's useless for you to break out. You won't survive for long until the red moon sets."

You have no right to speak!

The band boy looked at him coldly, his beast-like aura was enough to make people speechless. He almost yelled at Yuuki's face: "So it means that bringing you idiots will be useful!?"

Li Dan did not interfere. Hayasaka Ai's fingers stroked the axe, and although Yuki's face was full of fear, he stared at him stubbornly.

"It worked. I found a clue while exploring the castle. Maybe we can survive."

Thomas did not show any interest, but was full of contempt: "You want to survive so much that you start making up stories? I have seen many idiots like you."

"Yes, it's a story, but it's better than nothing."

"Then come and listen."

"Not now. What if you leave me behind?"

Thomas stopped talking and just stared at the other person with a dangerous look. He saw that the young man's cheeks were trembling and he couldn't even speak straight.

He was scared, but was it true or not?

"In the game, everyone has the opportunity to create miracles. Maybe brother Yuki can find some blind spots. Don't forget that he is the only one who killed the monster." Li Dan firmly held Thomas' shoulders and patted him lightly three times.

"Whether it's true or not, we have to give it a try to find out. And as he said, if we break out, we can only live a few more hours. It's meaningless."

That made sense, and Thomas snorted and stepped back, but Yuki didn't seem to breathe a sigh of relief, as that was all in the plan.

He glanced at the hand on Thomas' shoulder, and when the owner of the hand turned around, he resumed his panic-stricken expression, but with a hint of the persistence of a red-eyed gambler added.

"Brother Yuuki, I promised you that we can act together. Now you can say it."

"Then I'll take over your duties." Yuki gritted his teeth and pointed behind him, "First of all, we can't stay here. We have to go to the roof of that building first."

"and then?"

"Then find a way to jump from that building to the city wall. I need to verify that clue."

"You're crazy, cough cough cough, you don't stay at the highest place, but go to a lower place, those zombies will climb up in no time!"

As soon as the words fell, the housewife who had been silent all this time spoke, coughing and screaming. Surrounded by the tide of zombies, a normal person would instinctively stay at the highest point.

But this game is counter-intuitive and counter-instinct.

Yuki knew very well what these people were thinking, including Hayasaka Ai and Sakurajima Mai, who couldn't understand, but he didn't explain.

"It's a dead end to stay here. Don't forget how our novice guide survived?"

Facing the novice guide with a hacked head, whether you rush over or turn around and run, you have a chance of survival, but if you stand there stupidly, you will definitely die.

Of course, that is not the same as the current situation, but it seems to be connected in a metaphysical sense.

"You're right. The worst choice in the reincarnation game is to do nothing. As long as you take action, you can always find some life." Li Dan took over the conversation. As an old player, he naturally felt it more deeply and no longer hesitated.

"Yuki, we are leaving our lives and fortunes in your hands!"

It sounds very stressful, but what difference does it make whether I pay or not? I'm going to die if I stay here anyway.

Yuki actually didn't feel any pressure at all. He tensed his face and nodded heavily: "I won't joke about my life."

The team immediately took action, and even if some people didn't want to leave the safety of the roof, they had no choice but to follow when they saw everyone else leaving.

There was a gap of five or six meters between the two buildings. Looking down, it was full of black "jam". Before anyone could lament, Li Dan took out something like a harpoon gun as if performing a magic trick.

"This is an alien prop cable gun. The maximum range is 200 meters. You can automatically slide up or down by holding the rope."

As expected of an old player, he has many hidden cards up his sleeve.

Yuki was full of envy. He had long guessed that the other party must have an escape tool, but he didn't expect it to be so convenient. But it was good anyway, as it could save a lot of time.

Li Dan didn't explain much. He pressed the trigger and the spikes nailed into the roof opposite. Then he held the rope with both hands. A jelly-like substance overflowed from between his fingers, as if it was stuck on it.

There is no need to exert any effort, and you can slide over at a constant speed just like riding an escalator.

Seeing that it was so safe, the others followed suit and slid to the opposite roof. Only Thomas didn't do that. He just leaped over the five or six meter wide distance and jumped onto the opposite roof.

'At least the ultimate level of physical strength.'

Yuki ran while observing secretly. He saw that most people shook their hands gently after landing. The feeling of hanging on the horizontal bar was not comfortable. Only the frail housewife seemed fine. After landing, she ran forward with the team.

The floor suddenly dropped several meters, and the tide of corpses surged over following the smell. The sound of fingernails rubbing against the wall became more and more obvious, like a death warrant, making everyone run faster.

"Is it really okay? At this speed, the zombies will be able to crawl up within a minute." Hayasaka Ai lowered her voice, sounding completely lacking in confidence.

At least they were temporarily safe just now, but now they are in complete crisis. Except for the two veteran players, the others don’t even have a chance to fight.

Yuki didn't answer, but just looked forward. The city wall was a few meters lower, and the stone stairs on the inside prevented the zombies from climbing the wall. But thanks to the height difference, he finally saw the scene outside the wall.

Outside the wall were surging zombies. It was impossible to count how many there were, but they filled up the hundred-meter space. And behind the sea of ​​corpses—

It was a thick blood-red fog.

Chapter 18: Towards the Abyss! (Edited)

The fog was like rolling blood, like a huge wall stretching between heaven and earth, blocking all vision, and it was impossible to see what was behind the blood fog.

But Yuki clearly saw that zombies continued to emerge from the fog, just like lost travelers, whose bodies gradually became clearer from blurry.

"Keep running, don't stop!"

Li Dan ran in the front, aimed at the city wall and shot out the cable, then held it with one hand and slid over there with the gun in the other.

This reminder is completely unnecessary. No matter whether one believes in Yuki or not, no one dares to stop now.

Dense hands had appeared on the eaves, and bloodthirsty zombies were climbing up madly. Everyone, including Thomas, held the ropes and ran away without looking back.

Yuki landed at the back, feeling the stickiness of the cable, and quickly looked around.

Behind him, hundreds of zombies had already climbed onto the rooftop and were running wildly as if the cafeteria was open for dinner. Their speed was not much slower than that of adults.

Under my feet, a tide of zombies was surging towards the city wall. No one knew how they located themselves, but they all gathered here.

The scroll of hell, but Yuki couldn't feel even the last trace of fear. If he took this step, he would either die or live. Anyway, he didn't have to worry about being scared anymore.

Hey.

With his feet on the solid city wall, the falling speed was not fast and there was no need to roll to relieve the inertia.

When Yuuki looked up, he saw everyone staring at him eagerly. The meaning couldn't be clearer:

If you are in a desperate situation, you will be the first to die.

It's so damn realistic, but there's nothing much to say about this situation.

In the desperate situation, he didn't need to pretend to tremble. Instead, he seemed extremely excited and even forgot about the "elevation and inferiority".

"Let's go to the tower, Thomas, and block the entrance."

"Don't order me!" The man glared, picked up his sword and turned away.

Standing on the city wall, one can only be attacked from both sides. It is obviously much safer to retreat to the tower. Of course, the current situation cannot be called "safe" at all.

woo-

As the chainsaw screamed, countless blood flowers gushed out from under the big sword. Thomas stood at the corner of the stairs and didn't need any sword skills. Anyway, all the flesh would be torn apart after the saw teeth passed by.

Boom!

Gunshots rang out. The city wall was only a few meters wide. Li Dan pulled the trigger and every bullet hit the target. The zombies fell one after another like wheat.

Relying on the terrain advantage, we should be able to hold out for some time.

Yuki stretched his head and took a look, then suddenly felt relieved and raised his hand to look at the broken watch.

"It's already seven fifty-five."

"So what?" Hayasaka Ai clenched the axe tightly and never let go along the way.

Looking around, the scene was so scary, nothing but zombies.

On the inside, they climbed up the city wall along the stone stairs and poured into the arrow tower from both sides. Even though the stairs had been cut off by Thomas, they still climbed up one by one, with their fangs and claws bared.

Outside the wall, the startled zombies no longer needed to go into the city and take a detour. Instead, they piled up earth to attack the city, gradually forming a huge mountain of corpses. The arms in the front had already spread over the wall, causing the arrow tower to shake slightly.

Everyone held on to the fixed objects around them for fear of being shaken off. Looking at this horrific scene, it was estimated that they would disappear without a trace the moment of falling.

Yuki also grasped a flagpole-like object and answered subconsciously: "The earlier you get, the better souls you will be. You will be a superior person next year."

"Are you still in the mood to joke?" Sakurajima Mai looked at her as if she was a lunatic, thinking that this bastard has a pretty good mental state.

"I'm not kidding, there are many definitions of morning." Yuki muttered to himself, and suddenly turned his head: "Brother Li, pick up your spear gun and shoot!"

"Shoot? Shoot where???"

Li Dan looked over and seemed to have thought of something, but the intense battle made it difficult for him to think clearly.

"It doesn't matter where, just shoot into the fog, and raise the angle."

If the shooting angle is too low, it will slide directly into the zombie group. I believe these zombies will not refuse the gift that is delivered to their doorstep.

Li Dan seemed to understand something and put away his gun.

"Thomas, give it a push."

"Is it you?"

There were curses coming from the tower, accompanied by a bloody frenzy, but no one cared about his thoughts at this time.

puff.

The harpoon shot out with a long cable. Yuki didn't dare to blink, staring at the bent and stretched rope, counting silently in his heart.

One second, two seconds, three seconds.

About five seconds later, the cable suddenly straightened, and Yuki quickly made a calculation in his mind, multiplying the time by the speed at which the gun was fired.

One hundred and eighty meters.
