Although She’s Only a Level 1 Noob, She’s Still Incredibly Powerful - Chapter 24 Part 2

“I don’t want to sacrifice myself,” Bai Qiuye said. “I still have the umbilical cord. How can I die so quickly?”

“There’s no need to run.” Zhong Xuan walked out from a dark corner. “Why struggle in pain before death?”

Zeng Xianqing looked at him, her body trembling.

Bai Qiuye noticed that her fingernails were digging into her palms. Her emotion was not fear, but anger.

What did Zhong Xuan do to her and her husband to make Zeng Xianqing only remember hatred in the face of death?

Bai Qiuye took out the umbilical cord. The ghost baby seemed to have some complicated feelings about it.

It was either out of curiosity or to find a lost part of itself.

It stopped not far away and didn’t act rashly.

Zhong Xuan looked down at the ghost baby and said with some disappointment, “It’s a pity that it doesn’t have real intelligence and can only rely on instinct. Otherwise, it would be an excellent weapon.”

“But it’s enough for now.” Zhong Xuan looked up and said, “I don’t plan to let anyone in this copy survive anyway.”

Bai Qiuye asked, “To avenge your sister?”

Zeng Xianqing looked at her in surprise, as if curious about her relationship with Zhong Xuan and Zhong Xuan’s sister.

Zhong Xuan stared at her as if admiring a strange piece of art. “Revenge?”

Bai Qiuye said, “You did so much just to kill me, didn’t you?”

Zhong Xuan seemed to be surprised. His mouth slowly opened and then he laughed.

“Hahaha, what are you talking about? Why would I go through so much trouble to kill you?” Zhong Xuan laughed and bent down, raising a hand to wipe his tears. “You’re only level 1. Killing you is as easy as killing a chicken.”

Zeng Xianqing listened to their conversation and was even more shocked.

Her gaze fell on Bai Qiuye’s head. There was a “level 26” icon.

Zeng Xianqing suddenly remembered the server announcement she saw a few days ago.

The last level 1 player.

Could it be her?

Zeng Xianqing’s heart was in turmoil.

How could a level 1 player provoke Zhong Xuan?

“If you don’t want to kill me, why did you follow me into the copy?” Bai Qiuye asked. “How did you find me?”

“I tampered with Zhong Ying’s recruitment advertisement.” Zhong Xuan said casually. “Whoever uses it will be targeted.”

Zhong Xuan did not continue to talk about the details of how he entered the copy.

Bai Qiuye understood that other than tampering with the recruitment advertisement, Zhong Xuan must have other means.

“As for the revenge you mentioned, it’s complete nonsense.” Zhong Xuan said, “Whether Zhong Ying lives or dies is her own choice. Why should I avenge her? You’re not the murderer who hurt her.”

Bai Qiuye was somewhat surprised that Zhong Xuan could actually say such words.

She thought that Zhong Xuan did everything to avenge his sister.

However, Zhong Xuan’s actions were clearly inconsistent with what he said at this time.

Bai Qiuye asked, “Since you’ve never considered revenge, why do you keep targeting me?”

Zhong Xuan looked at her and sighed softly. “In the end, her death was a disgrace to me. I can’t tolerate a Level 1 noob stepping on my head. ”

Bai Qiuye’s eyebrows twitched. “You’re really sick!”

“Of course I am sick.” Zhong Xuan took a step closer to her and walked into Bai Qiuye’s attack range. Such an unguarded action unintentionally showed his attitude.

He thought that Bai Qiuye could not do anything to him.

At this moment, the ghost baby finally confirmed its instinct. It stared hatefully at Bai Qiuye who was holding the other half of its umbilical cord and reached out a skinny, dark little hand.

Suddenly, Bai Qiuye threw the umbilical cord at Zhong Xuan’s face.

The ghost baby was like a dog that saw a bone and pounced on Zhong Xuan.

However, the moment it was close to Zhong Xuan, it felt another force pulling it and fell midair, falling into a temporary daze.

Zhong Xuan pulled the bloody umbilical cord from his face, his face as ferocious as a demon.

“You think you can be saved if you give me this umbilical cord?”

Bai Qiuye did not stop. She pulled Zeng Xianqing and ran towards the corridor.

The ghost baby seemed to smell blood and immediately turned to chase after Bai Qiuye.

“Have you rested enough?” Bai Qiuye took the time to ask Zeng Xianqing.

“Yes. So you were talking to him to buy time.” Zeng Xianqing panted and said, “But aren’t we back to the starting point now?”

“It’s the starting point.” Bai Qiuye said, “But It’s also the end point of that idiot.”

Zeng Xianqing followed Bai Qiuye with a confused face and ran around the entire fifth floor.

She found that because the ghost baby was chasing after them, the zombies in front of them would automatically retreat and jump to other places.

Zhong Xuan was in front of them.

He was about to face a large group of zombies that were avoiding the ghost baby.

Zhong Xuan was still calm because the zombies were exhausted from running and did not have time to attack him.

Suddenly, Bai Qiuye held a small knife in her hand. The blade was very delicate and there was a lot of blood on the blade, but it was half-dried.

Zhong Xuan was very familiar with this knife. It was the one he used to kill Ge Zixuan.

The knife flew through the air and was aimed at his head.

Zhong Xuan had no time to be surprised by Bai Qiuye’s accuracy when she threw the knife and nimbly dodged to the side.

The knife that was supposed to hit his forehead left a bloody mark on his cheek.

He said to Bai Qiuye who was running towards him, “If you kill me with your own hands, you will be deducted 1000 survival vouchers and will be completely haunted by the ghost baby. You don’t understand this principle, you are really a level 1.”

But just as he finished speaking, the zombies around him stopped and turned their heads, as if looking for a smell that would make them go crazy.

Zhong Xuan knew that something was wrong and quickly held his breath.

But the wound on his face kept bleeding. The zombies smelled the blood as if they had smelled a stimulant, their hard nails had already climbed up Zhong Xuan’s clothes.

“It’s not worth wasting 1000 survival vouchers for you.” Bai Qiuye had a smile on her face. “I respect your level, so I know you’ll definitely be able to dodge it.”

She did it on purpose!

Zhong Xuan almost ground his teeth, but he couldn’t move, he couldn’t continue to provoke these crazy zombies.

Bai Qiuye said to Zeng Xianqing, “Go downstairs!”

Zeng Xianqing quickly changed direction with her and rushed down the stairs.

Seeing this, the ghost baby also quickly climbed up.

The zombies that were being chased by the ghost baby were no longer a threat, they surrounded Zhong Xuan in three layers.

Slash—

Zhong Xuan’s sleeves were cut by the zombies’ curved nails, several deep bloody marks appeared on his skin.

The zombie poison passed through the wounds and gradually melted into his blood, through the blood vessels towards his heart.

Zhong Xuan felt his body stiffen, his muscles seemed to have solidified into stone. If he didn’t move, he would become one of the zombies.

He looked at Bai Qiuye’s back as she left, his eyes scarlet, he swallowed the umbilical cord that was connected to the mother’s body.

“Let’s go back to the ninth floor, I can’t run anymore.” Zeng Xianqing said to Bai Qiuye.

“No, we have to keep running.”

“But the ghost baby can catch us at any time, why take the risk?”

“Don’t worry, I’ve already observed.”
Bai Qiuye said as she ran, “As long as we maintain this speed, the ghost baby will never catch up.”

“But what’s the use of running in circles with the ghost baby?”

“Zhong Xuan definitely has a backup plan.” Bai Qiuye said, “If he is beaten to death by me, he would be ashamed of his rank.”

“…” Zeng Xianqing didn’t know what to say for a while, saying dryly, “You’re really cautious.”

Sure enough, the two didn’t run for long, when the ghost baby behind them suddenly changed direction, like a wisp of black smoke, it disappeared in the corridor.

“Why did the ghost baby run away?” Zeng Xianqing looked back in the direction of the stairs, “It seems to have gone upstairs.”

“Zhong Xuan, he …” Bai Qiuye was about to explain, when she suddenly heard a roar from upstairs.

Many heavy objects hit the floor, so much so that the ceiling of the floor they were on cracked one after another, spreading to their front.

Boom!!!

A hole appeared in the ceiling, and a figure was smashed down, falling not far from the two.

It was a zombie. It was still struggling, but its limbs had been torn off. Like a human swine, it was still desperately rolling on the ground.

Bai Qiuye quickly pulled Zeng Xianqing to hide under the sunken door frame.

The next second, Zhong Xuan’s face appeared in the hole.

His skin was no longer in the category of human, showing a bluish black colour, as if his whole body was evenly covered with anthocyanin.

His eyeballs, which should have been white, turned black, and his pupils were red, like two coral beads, sluggishly rotating, seemingly looking for Bai Qiuye and Zeng Xianqing.

The ghost baby was lying on his shoulder, looking like a docile pet.

Zhong Xuan looked around for a while, but didn’t see the two people hiding behind the obstacle.

He slowly put his head back. Heavy footsteps came from upstairs, and gradually moved away.

“He… what’s wrong with him…” Zeng Xianqing lowered his voice and asked.

“He ate the umbilical cord.” Bai Qiuye said.

“My God!” Zeng Xianqing covered his mouth and said, “Is he still human?”

“I think … he should be.” Bai Qiuye said, “Since he dared to do this to himself, he definitely has a way to break it.”

Zeng Xianqing: “… Are you admiring him?”

Bai Qiuye said earnestly: “Respect for the enemy is respect for your own life.”

“…” Zeng Xianqing asked, “Then what should we do?”

Bai Qiuye poked her head out to look at the patio below. The Taoist master had disappeared, leaving behind a damaged Eight Trigrams Formation.

Bai Qiuye said to Zeng Xianqing, “Do you still remember that when the Taoist master was here, all the ghosts in this building would be driven into the Eight Trigrams Formation by him?”

“Yes …” Zeng Xianqing nodded. “My husband was actually poisoned before, and he almost jumped down the patio at that time.”

Bai Qiuye was silent for two seconds. “My condolences.”

Zeng Xianqing forced a smile. “Hurry up and tell us how to deal with Zhong Xuan.”

“Zhong Xuan ate the ghost baby’s umbilical cord, so his body will be attracted to the Eight Trigrams Formation like the people who were scratched by zombies.” Bai Qiuye said, “I’ll lure Zhong Xuan out, and you go to the first floor to fix the Eight Trigrams Formation.”

“As long as he can go in, we can trap him.” Bai Qiuye added.
