Chapter 9: Tender meat  

The current Ye Zhongming was eager to fight so he charged out of the basement where he bumped into the other bed bugs. These mutated monsters couldn’t threaten him much anymore so naturally they couldn’t block his blade. In just two minutes, the other bugs who entered the villa were all cleared up.

When Mu Xinfei carefully walked out of the basement and saw that her expensive carpet was covered in bug corpses and the intense smell of the green liquid, she tried to suppress the churning of her stomach. Mu Xinfei looked to Ye Zhongming’s body.

At this moment, his body was a little dirty, and the blood of the beg bugs scattered onto his clothing. Some of the flesh and limbs were also stuck to it.

But this didn’t fill her with disgust. On the contrary, she felt like his body was shining bright.

This was the aura of someone looking down on the earth, someone who was taking matters into his own hands!

Was this a characteristic that only strong guys would have?

Why was he so different from the weak guys in the modern day?

Mu Xinfei heard her heart beat vigorously and her body was feeling hot.

Ye Zhongming spat out a breath. Although these bugs just mutated and their bodies were so strong that it was tough for blades to pierce through them, but it still took a lot of stamina to kill dozens of them. Fortunately, he just evolved so he had enough to deal with them.

He walked to the window to take a look. Apart from some blur figures that were moving about, there were still cries and screams over from the seven floor block. That explosion exposed my people and they were being attacked by zombies.

More importantly, he didn’t notice any other mutated beings nearby which made Ye Zhongming calm down.

The mutated plants would become top of the food chain in the future. Among them, the strong ones were things that humans couldn’t deal with. In the last life, even nine star experts would have to avoid those strongly evolved ones. Of course, everything had to be split up and judged. In Ye Zhongming’s last world, although the mutated plants caused huge casualties for the humans, but similarly, they attacked monsters too. The ones that humans killed were only a small portion of them.

Seeing that Ye Zhongming was about to head out, Mu Xinfei got a little anxious. She only felt a small sense of safety being with this guy. If she was left alone, she would definitely disagree.

“Where are you going?”

Ye Zhongming didn’t turn his head, he just looked forwards, “Heading out to take a look, just stay here.”

“I will follow you!”

Mu Xinfei ran a little to drag Ye Zhongming’s collar, afraid that he would just leave. The attitude of this future nine star expert was something Ye Zhongming was not used to. He kept on linking her back to her role as the Killing Rose.

“It is night so it is much more dangerous. If you follow me out there is a high chance of an accident. Just stay here and help me do something.”

Mu Xinfei blinked, “What thing?”

“Look carefully.”

Ye Zhongming knelt on the ground and picked up the corpse of the mutated bug to split the shell to reveal the body within. At the area connecting its head, there was a thin slice of tender meat.

“Cut off this piece of meat from all of them and then scatter some salt and bake them.”

Ah?

Her face was filled with shock. Make her deal with these smelly bugs? And salt bake? This, why did it sound like they were going to eat it? That was so disgusting.

Facing Mu Xinfei’s question, Ye Zhongming nodded his head, “Of course is to be food, it is a delicacy.”

After saying that, he gathered the bugs in the living room and then sent them underground before moving the oven there. He didn’t care whether she agreed, just pushing her right in. These mutated bugs had just evolved so no demon crystals had appeared but their bodies had changed. This meat was the essence. Eating this part would increase one’s physique. After years of accumulation, it would greatly benefit the human body.

Before reviving, agriculture was dwindling. Apart from some wild vegetables and fruits, this mutated flesh was the main food. Not only could one fill up one’s stomach, one could strengthen themselves too.

But these bugs just mutated so they weren’t that helpful toward people.

“Since there is still electricity, get these down. If you finish with them when I am back, I will get you a one star strengthening potion, if not… Hehe.”

He glanced at her protruding body and showed the look of a hooligan.

Mu Xinfei agreed right away. In the next moment, she saw the giant hole that the bugs corroded being blocked by a table.

“Don’t touch the green sac at the side, there is the corrosive liquid.”

Ye Zhongming’s voice spread into the room causing Mu Xingfei who was feeling a little bit of unease to calm down.

Dingsheng Apartments had 30 seven story apartments with around 6-7 thousand people. When the apocalypse occurred, although many people weren’t back, but there were at least a thousand. Among them, even if a third mutated, that was 300-400.

These were all level one zombies and were the source of level one demon crystals. Others might not know what its use was but to Ye Zhongming, they were easy riches.

Now he was already a one star evolved and his body was six times stronger than normal people. Along with his previous experience and battle skills, it was really easy to kill normal zombies. Which was why he wouldn’t give up on the demon crystals.

Although it was much more dangerous at night, but Ye Zhongming still decided to come out to hunt.

These level one zombies were his prey. After these two days, a portion of them would evolve and become stronger and more dangerous. At that time, it wouldn’t be so easy for Ye Zhongming to kill them.

The night would bring unknown dangers but at the same time, it gave Ye Zhongming a chance to not be noticed. He was like a cat in the bushes, getting close to the seven story buildings like a shadow. As he had cleared most of them outside the villa in the day, he didn’t face any dangers until he entered the seven story apartment region. Only then did he face the first zombie.

.

This was a middle aged man in sleeping clothes. His blue and white checkered shit was covered in blood and his left stomach had a huge hole, showing the intestines that hung on his side. As he walked around, it looked really creepy.

Ye Zhongming had seen much of this so he didn’t blink at all. He walked over and before this zombie reacted, he stabbed the back of his head and killed him.

He pulled out the demon crystal at the center of the forehead. He wanted to continue forwards when he heard a scream not far behind him.
