The next second, a sharp pain shot through his wrist, and the gun slipped from his hand and fell to the ground.
Immediately, he sensed that the other party's power was abnormal. This was definitely not an attribute that an ordinary person should have. This guy must have received some kind of attribute enhancement.
However, the attack did not end there. Liu Zhenyu frantically swung his fists like a storm.
Faced with such a chaotic attack, Nie Qingyun felt a surge of anger.
His physical attributes have also been enhanced, and they are not much worse than Liu Zhenyu's.
During the defensive play, he suddenly threw a punch, which landed squarely on Liu Zhenyu's chin.
"You're an evolved being too!" Liu Zhenyu's body swayed from the blow, and he turned his head, his eyes widening. He then touched the corner of his mouth, his gaze becoming even more ferocious.
"It seems I can't let you go even if I want to."
As he spoke, he threw another punch, but this time, a bluish mist rose around his fist.
Nie Qingyun's eyes narrowed. He didn't rush to take it, but quickly took a few steps back to avoid it. At the same time, he summoned the [Apocalypse Survival Guide] in his mind.
[Target analysis in progress...]
Name: Liu Zhenyu
ID: 574
Power: 16
Agility: 15
Stamina: 19
Spirit: 8
Occupation: None
Possess skills:
[The Silence Prohibition]
Quality: C+
Type: Domain Skills
Effect 1: A silence field slowly expands outwards from the user, with a maximum coverage radius of 50 meters. If an enemy target is in the silence field for more than five seconds, their mouth and nose organs will gradually lose their function, making it impossible for them to make sounds or breathe normally, and they will also suffer from [Oxygen Deprivation].
Effect 2: [Oxygen Deprivation] Targets with oxygen deficiency will have all attribute bonuses disabled and will be unable to use [Data Space] and all skills.
Nie Qingyun quickly scanned Liu Zhenyu's attributes, and when he finished reading the other party's skill list, his heart skipped a beat.
Not only are its attributes ridiculously high, but that cyan mist isn't a buff skill at all; it's a domain-type skill!
This skill can block access to the data space, in other words, all items stored in it are unusable.
In an instant, Nie Qingyun decisively abandoned the idea of continuing the fight. He could feel the drone gradually losing contact with him, so he immediately asked in the communication channel:
Where did you run off to?
"I can see the fire escape!" Cheng Yuqiu stumbled down the corridor, leaning against the wall, panting heavily, her face filled with barely concealed anxiety.
"How are things on your end? Are you in any danger?"
No sooner had he finished speaking than a scream came from Nie Qingyun over the communication channel, and then the communication was completely cut off.
"Nie Qingyun?"
"Nie Qingyun!"
"You bastard, say something!"
The girl leaned against the wall and asked several more times, but no one answered on the communication channel. Suddenly, her heart jumped into her throat.
……
In the classroom, Nie Qingyun's back slammed against the wall. Before he could even raise his hand to wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth, several figures surrounded him.
"You guys are really troublesome..." Seeing someone rush forward again, Nie Qingyun raised his foot hard and kicked him to the ground.
The next second, two more people rushed at them.
Liu Zhenyu stood a short distance away, shrouded in a faint blue mist. He looked smugly at Nie Qingyun and said calmly:
"Still want to struggle?"
"You should already realize that, right?"
"Everything related to the [Data Space] has been restricted. Now you are no different from an ordinary person."
Nie Qingyun forced Mitsui and Xu Kun back again, then leaned against the wall, panting heavily.
The oxygen entering his lungs was decreasing, his clothes were soaked with sweat, and his face was covered in bruises, making him look extremely disheveled.
He had planned to retreat immediately as soon as he analyzed the skill "Silence Ban" using the "Apocalypse Survival Guide".
This type of domain-specific skill is easier to deal with in open spaces; the narrower the area, the greater the advantage.
But he couldn't choose to jump out of the window and escape immediately.
Because doing so would be tantamount to handing Cheng Yuqiu over to the other party, he had to buy enough time, at least until that idiot destroyed the fortifications.
This would cause all the zombies to pile up at the stairwell, forcing Liu Zhenyu and his group to take a detour.
The only good news right now is that the [Silence Ban] skill isn't quite as powerful as its description suggests.
It also has some shortcomings.
While it can immediately block access to the [Data Space], the reduction in attribute bonuses is slow.
At least until now, Nie Qingyun still feels that his abilities in all aspects are slightly better than those of ordinary people.
If we can just hold on a little longer and find an opportunity to get close to the window and jump, this operation will be a great success.
If Nie Qingyun had taken precautions in advance, he would have a hundred ways to kill Liu Zhenyu.
"You seem a little unwilling?" Liu Zhenyu's tone was gloomy, and his expression was somewhat distorted due to his excessive excitement.
But he felt incredibly exhilarated. The ability to crush others at will after gaining power gave him a sense of vengeful pleasure, which in turn fueled his desire to express himself.
"Do you know, maybe in your eyes, this world is hell."
"But I think it's much more interesting than the rigid social class system of the past."
"Chaos has reshuffled everything, and we have a chance to be favored by Lady Luck again."
“So…” Nie Qingyun swept all his wet hair back and forced a smile as he said:
"What you're trying to say is that you were unlucky before, so you lived a miserable life, but now you're lucky, right?"
"Isn't that right!" Liu Zhenyu suddenly raised his voice, pointing to three boys huddled in a corner, trembling with fear.
"We're both clearing out zombies, so why did I get the [Data System] while they didn't?"
"What the hell is hard work and ambition? It's all just empty talk from those lucky people who were born with a 'jackpot'!"
"If I transferred my abilities to them, wouldn't they be strong?"
"But unfortunately, I was lucky this time!"
"Hearing you say that..." Nie Qingyun suddenly chuckled, supporting his forehead.
"I am truly gratified."
Liu Zhenyu was taken aback, then his smug expression grew even stronger:
"So you think so too, don't you? It's a pity you chose to go against me."
However, Nie Qingyun gently shook his head and said meaningfully:
"I was really happy to hear your eloquent speech."
"Because now one thing is finally confirmed, you bastard..."
"Turns out he's a complete, utterly hopeless good-for-nothing..."
"What did you say!" Liu Zhenyu was now completely enraged, and several veins bulged on his forehead.
He grabbed the pistol that had fallen to the ground.
"Don't you want to hear my opinion before you fire?" Nie Qingyun suddenly raised his head with a cold smile.
Liu Zhenyu raised his hand and pointed the gun at Nie Qingyun:
"If these are your last words."
Nie Qingyun spat out a mouthful of blood, seemingly oblivious to the dark muzzle of the gun:
"I've always been grateful that God didn't give me everything I wanted..."
"That's what keeps me constantly hungry and eager."
"It filled me with righteous indignation amidst the anger and discussions."
"You can put away your pity when you're dealing with guys like you."
As soon as he finished speaking, Nie Qingyun's eyes suddenly turned sharp. The next second, he pulled out a sharp shard of glass from his sleeve and rushed towards the four-eyed man who was closest to him.
Amidst the splatter of blood, the two lost their balance and fell to the ground.
"Then, die." Liu Zhenyu's expression hardened, and he slowly increased the pressure on the trigger with his index finger.
"stop!!!"
Suddenly, a sharp girl's voice rang out from beside them.
At the same time, the back door of the lecture hall was smashed open by a force.
Just as Liu Zhenyu was about to turn his head to look, he heard a "buzzing" sound.
Immediately afterwards, he and Mitsui and the others were enveloped in a thick white fog.
The thick white fog completely obscured everyone's vision, and they were immediately thrown into chaos.
"Dangdang!"
It seemed that some heavy metal object had fallen next to Nie Qingyun, making a crisp sound.
Then he felt a pair of slender arms pass under his ribs, hooking his shoulders and pulling him backward.
"Ouch! You're so heavy!"
After a moment of surprise, Nie Qingyun instantly recognized Cheng Yuqiu's voice. Startled, he quickly said:
"Why are you back!"
"Didn't I tell you to run away!"
"None of your business!" Cheng Yuqiu said breathlessly, struggling to drag Nie Qingyun along.
"You, you bastard, if you die, how will you protect me in the future!"
Nie Qingyun looked up and, through the white dust from the fire extinguisher, saw a blurry face.
Everything was blurry, except for those clear eyes that shone with a resolute and courageous light.
In an instant, Nie Qingyun felt as if something had inadvertently entered his chest cavity.
A crack appeared in the barrier in his heart.
"Bang!" A muffled gunshot suddenly rang out.
In their line of sight, a cluster of crimson blood blossomed from the white mist.
The arms that were wrapped around Nie Qingyun's chest slowly lost their strength.
Chapter 54: You're so amazing, but I like Nie Qingyun (2.5k)
Most interactions between people are superficial.
Or rather, communication is easy only at a relatively superficial level.
Once things become complex, people become a labyrinth for each other.
Nie Qingyun once firmly believed this.
Therefore, he never trusted anyone.
In some ways, he and Qin Hehuan are actually the same kind of people.
It is a constant process of weighing the pros and cons to determine the weight and level of sacrifice.
