Chapter Fifteen: Entering the Apocalyptic Civilization

  "Delete it, this is meaningless!" Lin Tian guessed that the post might have been deleted by Zhou Yao and shook his head, "This will only make things more intense!" It has to be said that Haitian University really has a lot of experts. Here, the experts are not martial arts masters, but rather computer experts who quickly tracked down the trail left behind by Zhou Yao.

  "Haha, quickly take it down and see who is so bold as to arbitrarily delete posts in the forum!"

  "Looks like it's from the girls' dormitory based on the IP address!"

  "Three minutes, we can get it done in three minutes!"

  Zhou Yao's forehead also appeared with fine sweat beads at this time, "If I had known earlier, I would have used my own computer!" Nangong Wanjun's computer configuration was much worse than hers, and it lacked many of the attack and defense software she had written herself. These two factors led to her being defeated in just five or six minutes. If she quickly disconnected from the network, no matter how powerful the other person was, they would not be able to do anything to her. However, she did not want to do so. In the hacker world, she had a pride of her own, and this pride made her unwilling to admit defeat easily!

  "Master, Zhou Yao is currently engaging in a cyber battle with someone. Within one minute, she will be breached." Xiao Ling's voice echoed in Lin Tian's mind. "Has she been discovered?" Lin Tian asked mentally, "Xiao Ling, help her out. Although she was a hindrance, at least she tried to help!"

  "Alright, master!"

  "Haha, just 20 seconds, we can break through in 20 seconds. I wonder who our opponent is, what a lovely beauty, the technique is really good! We six people joined forces and spent seven or eight minutes to almost break through!" In front of a computer, a thin boy wearing glasses laughed loudly, his fingers tapping rapidly on the keyboard!

  Just as Zhou Yao's defenses were about to be breached and she was about to be invaded, a massive data flood suddenly appeared out of nowhere, directly sweeping away the six people who were chasing her to who-knows-where! "This matter ends here, otherwise you will bear the consequences!" A large skull head simultaneously appeared on the computer screens of the six people who had attacked Zhou Yao. The skull's mouth opened and closed, saying the above words. After finishing speaking, the skull head slowly shrank until it disappeared.

  "What's going on?" The six of them asked themselves, Zhou Yao was also staring at the computer in front of her in surprise. The attack just now seemed like a ferocious beast from ancient times had emerged from the vast wilderness, its majestic aura had scared her quite a bit. "This is what a true master looks like, annihilating everything in an instant. My abilities are truly pitifully weak compared to theirs!" Zhou Yao felt a mix of emotions in her heart, both excitement and disappointment.

  "Is it him? Is he that formidable?" Zhou Yao suddenly thought of Lin Tianlai, pondered for a moment, and shook her head. Such an attack, how could it be done by someone who is about the same age as her?! "Who is it? Who would help me?" Zhou Yao started to think anxiously.

  "Nangong Yu'er asked curiously: 'Yao sister, what just happened?'"

  "I was just about to be defeated, but at the last moment I was saved by someone with incredible strength!" Zhou Yao said, "Wan'er, I've been overthinking and need to rest for a bit. The traces I left behind have already been cleared by the person who saved me, so you can go online without worrying!"

  Zhou Yao finished speaking and really went to bed to rest. She was just an ordinary person, and the intense confrontation had easily exhausted her energy!

  Lin Tian's side. "Master, the task is complete, but that post just appeared again on the BBS, should I delete it?" Xiao Ling asked. "No need, let it be, I'll focus on improving my own strength, and when the time comes, I won't fear anything!" Lin Tian said to himself in his mind.

  "Lao San, that post just appeared again, and the response is much faster than before!" Zuo Yunfei said.

  "Let it be, cut off the knife and the water will flow again!"

  The BBS was in an uproar, but the protagonists of the incident, Lin Tian and Zhou Yao, were both lying in bed, fast asleep. However, while Zhou Yao was truly sleeping, Lin Tian's consciousness had entered the Star Ring. "Little Spirit, I want to practice my combat skills, do you have any good recommendations?!"

  "Master, you can enter the post-apocalyptic world. The post-apocalyptic civilization was also a modern civilization like Earth's, but the Y virus broke out and most of humanity became infected and turned into zombies. The remaining humans struggled to survive. When the old master brought the post-apocalyptic civilization into the Star Ring, the Y virus had already broken out for two years!" "But Xiao Ling, I want to enter with my consciousness, entering physically is not convenient at the moment." Lin Tian said.

  "Heh heh, Master, who told you that the post-apocalyptic civilization is a material civilization? The post-apocalyptic civilization and the Tianlong Eight Steps world are also virtual civilizations!" Xiaoling said with a flutter of her wings. "Well, in that case, let's choose this one then. I've seen zombie movies before, they're not very scary, I wonder if this post-apocalyptic civilization is any good?"

  "Master, as long as you don't wet your pants in fright, it's all good!"

  "Xiao Ling, you're underestimating your master me!" Lin Tian said, his heart also racing with some anxiety. If he really got scared and wet his pants, he would never be able to hold his head up in front of Xiao Ling again, and a master's dignity would be gone! "Right, Xiao Ling, can I use the Lingbo Micro Step?"

  "Alright, master, but you'll only have internal energy when you enter the Tianlong Eight Steps world."

  "Alright then, let's go in! Don't leave me to rot with the corpses!"

  "Roar!" "Roar!" Lin Tian had just entered the post-apocalyptic world and hadn't even had time to look around when the terrifying howls entered his ears. "Ah, Xiao Ling, you've ruined me!" Lin Tian cried out in his mind. As he had feared, Xiao Ling hadn't transported him into the midst of zombies, but the building he was in was surrounded by hordes of undead. Lin Tian's location was on the rooftop, and when he looked down, the densely packed zombies made his eyes go numb!

  "Damn, why are these guys surrounding this building? Is there still meat that can't be heard?" Although the zombies were numerous, they were far away, and Lin Tian's heart wasn't overly fearful. "Bang! Bang! Bang!" The iron door leading to the rooftop was being pounded loudly by someone.

  "Open the door! Open the door!" A woman's voice came from the other side of the iron gate. "Ling Na, move aside, how can there be anyone upstairs? We'll blast open the door with guns, those damn zombies, this time they're probably surrounding us by tens of thousands!" A rough male voice said. "But if we shoot the door open, how are we going to stop the zombies from rushing in? Don't you know I have keen hearing? I heard someone's breathing sound upstairs!"

  "Damn, pervert, in the midst of tens of thousands of zombies' roar, even a slight breath can be heard!" Lin Tian muttered to himself, and hastily ran towards the iron gate, "Don't shoot, I'll come open the door myself!"

  The door opened, and behind it was a very beautiful woman and a tall black man. The black man held a light machine gun in his hand, with a cartridge belt on his shoulder, two large-caliber pistols at his waist, and a sharp machete about two feet long on his back. The woman's hands also grasped a silver pistol each!

  "Two of you, I am Lin Tian!" Lin Tian was on high alert, ready to launch his Lingbo Micro Step at any sign of movement from the other side. "I'm Ta Song, and she's Ling Na. You're alone? And unarmed?" The black man, Ta Song, furrowed his brow as he asked, while Ling Na took the opportunity to glance around and relocked the open iron gate.

  Lin Tian nodded and said with a helpless tone, "My teammates and I were scattered by the zombies, our weapons were lost too. We escaped to here, but didn't expect that this building was surrounded by tens of thousands of zombies, it's really unlucky! And you two, isn't it also very dangerous?"

  "Who says it isn't? But there's only a lot of food in the city, we came to the city to search for food, and didn't expect to attract so many zombies!" Taison said with some disappointment.

  "Tasong, there's a steel cable over there that leads to the building on the other side. It must have been left behind by people who passed through before. Maybe we can use it to leave!" Lingna said.

  "Bang!" "Bang!"... The iron door transmitted a burst of impact sounds, "It's the zombies, they're coming up!" Ling Na changed color and said, "We have to leave immediately, this iron door can't hold them for long. With so many losses here, there must be Y2 among them. If we're unlucky, there might even be Y3. If that's the case, we're dead for sure!"

  "We need someone to go take a look at the situation over there! Those damn zombies have some intelligence, don't get ambushed by them!" Ta Song said. Lin Tian volunteered, "I'll go scout ahead!"

  Ta Song pulled out a handgun from his waist and handed it to Lin Tian along with the steel knife on his back: "Be careful, we hope for one more companion, not another helper for the zombies!" Lin Tian took the gun and knife, nodded and said: "Don't worry, they won't get my life that easily!"

  There was a slight tremble, Lin Tian only needed to perform normally, and walking past the steel rope wouldn't be a problem. However, below were densely packed zombies, and Lin Tian didn't want to perform abnormally to feed them. He tested the steel rope, which was very secure. The building they were in was slightly taller than the one across from it, so sliding over wouldn't be an issue, and he wouldn't get stuck halfway. With his steel knife tied behind his back and his pistol at his waist, Lin Tian picked up a curved iron bar and placed it on top of the steel rope.

  "Good luck!" Taison Lingna said, the sound of the zombies crashing into the iron gate grew more urgent.

  Lin Tian nodded, grasped both ends of the iron bar with his hands, and kicked off with his legs. He was already hanging on the steel cable, sliding towards the opposite building! The zombies below were densely packed, Lin Tian only felt a chill run down his spine, and his hands involuntarily gripped tighter!

  "It's okay, it's okay, at worst I'll just die and come back to life again!" Lin Tian consoled himself desperately, his wildly racing heart finally calming down a bit. More than ten seconds later, Lin Tian's feet had already stepped onto the rooftop of the building across from him. He quickly looked around in all directions, then went into the stairwell entrance to take another look, and seeing that everything seemed normal, Lin Tian waved at Ta Song and Ling Na on the opposite side!

  Ling Na quickly slid over, rapidly taking another look around, clearly not fully trusting Lin Tian. Seeing that the building didn't seem to have been breached by zombies, Ling Na let out a slight sigh of relief and gave Ta Song a safe signal from across the way!
