Chapter 68: Plucking feathers from a passing goose, achieving the Thousand Corpse Slaughter!
Time ticked away, second by second.
In the blink of an eye, more than three hours had passed.
Su Ze was fast, and he had consumed quite a bit of Stamina.
In just over three hours, he had already traversed every corner of the campus.
From the top floor of the Teaching Building to the basement storage room of the Gymnasium, wherever he passed, resources were looted clean.
And the powerful effect of the "copper coin necklace" was fully demonstrated at this moment.
He didn't even need to kill deliberately; he only needed to thrust or sweep his long spear while on the move, and those zombies blocking his path would fall to the ground in response.
And the dropped copper coins would automatically merge into streams of light, sinking into his body.
Killing and looting were perfectly synchronized.
Having confirmed he had been everywhere, Su Ze didn't intend to scavenge carefully anymore; he would leave some for those destined to find them.
Anyway, in the end, they would basically have to trade with him, so if he spent too much effort searching, it would take too much time and wouldn't be worth it.
Su Ze found an empty Rooftop and stopped.
He opened his player backpack and began to count the night's haul.
The most abundant resources were still basic survival items like compressed biscuits, bread, and drinking water, followed by hemostatic bandages and antibiotics.
He traded all these items to the woman in the Dormitory in one go.
What he really cared about were the rare materials and fine quality items.
【fine quality · sewing machine blueprint * 1】
【fine quality · washing machine blueprint * 1】
【fine quality · long sword * 1】
【fine quality · electronic parts * 23】
【fine quality · mechanical gears * 16】
...
【fine quality · gunpowder * 16】
"Gunpowder... 16 units."
Su Ze's brow furrowed almost imperceptibly.
With 16 units of gunpowder, according to the "crude explosives" blueprint recipe, he could only make two.
Too few.
He glanced at his copper coin count.
Total copper coins: 18,426.
Through a simple calculation, he realized that in the past three-plus hours, the zombies he had killed casually on his way to collect resources had actually exceeded six hundred.
This number made even him click his tongue in surprise.
The number of zombies tonight was indeed ridiculously high; after all, it was double that of last night.
Looking around, the campus was densely packed with wandering figures; the number probably already exceeded one hundred thousand.
If he didn't have the god-tier skill "Strange Language", even if his Stamina was as high as 16 points, facing this endless zombie tide, he would only be exhausted to death.
Killing them, he wouldn't be able to finish in a short time.
Why not just try the explosives he just got?
And experience its power.
Besides, if someone uses it against him in the future, at least he would have some psychological expectation, knowing what the power and range were like...
Having made up his mind, Su Ze immediately took action.
He needed a suitable terrain.
Soon, he locked his target on an underground passage connecting the school canteen and the Teaching Building.
The space there was relatively enclosed, and the narrow terrain would allow the explosive power to be maximized.
Su Ze's figure wove through the darkness, and he soon arrived at the entrance of the underground passage.
He didn't rush down; instead, he scouted for "volunteers" near the entrance.
A moment later.
A lone zombie wearing a security guard uniform wandered into his line of sight.
That's the one.
"Hrr... hrr..."
A low, grinding sound emanated from Su Ze's throat.
The security guard zombie's movements paused, its scarlet eyes swept over Su Ze, the violence in its eyes quickly fading, becoming somewhat blank.
Su Ze swaggered over and took out some thin rope and two homemade explosives from his backpack.
He moved quickly, tying the two explosive packs tightly to both sides of the security guard zombie's cheeks with the thin rope.
He wanted the explosives to stay at this height.
This way, it could inflict the maximum possible damage to the zombies' brains during the explosion.
Otherwise, what if it just blew up their feet on the ground?
That would be such a waste of explosives!
After finishing, Su Ze patted the security guard zombie's shoulder with satisfaction.
"Brother, sorry for the trouble."
Security guard zombie: "..."
Immediately after, Su Ze quieted the sound in his throat.
A few seconds later, the "Strange Language" effect wore off, and the blankness on the security guard zombie's face was immediately replaced by bloodthirsty madness!
"Roar!"
It roared, opening its bloody maw, and lunged fiercely at Su Ze, who was close at hand!
Su Ze turned and ran.
He didn't run far; instead, he started circling around the entrance of the underground passage.
The security guard zombie with two "big ear muffs" tied to its face followed behind him, roaring, tireless.
Soon, the commotion here attracted a large number of nearby zombies.
One, two, ten, hundreds...
More and more zombies joined the chasing party.
A dark mass quickly formed a zombie tide, following behind Su Ze and surging toward the underground passage.
The number grew larger and larger, with hundreds of zombies!
Su Ze seized the opportunity and made the grinding sound again.
The zombie horde's footsteps stopped in unison.
Su Ze's figure calmly detached itself from the encirclement of the zombie horde.
With a few shifts, he darted out of the zombie group.
And those hundreds of zombies, having lost their target, began to wander aimlessly in place.
Most of them squeezed into that narrow underground passage.
The density was enough!
Su Ze fished a piece of rag out of his backpack and lit it with a lighter.
He swung his arm violently!
The burning rag traced an orange-red arc in the air and landed precisely on the head of the "bomb man" security guard zombie.
The fuse was lit with a "hiss"!
Without a word, Su Ze turned and sprinted into the distance!
Time seemed to slow down at this moment.
In the underground passage, those hundreds of zombies were still blankly crowding and pushing.
The fuse on the security guard zombie's head sparked and burned rapidly...
The next second!
"Boom—!!!"
A deafening roar suddenly exploded!
The glass of the Teaching Building, a few dozen meters away, shattered all over the ground with a clatter!
Inside the passage, the zombies, especially those in the center, were instantly torn to pieces by the violent energy!
Flesh and blood flew everywhere, various severed limbs were blown far away, and the exploded copper coins scattered all over the ground.
By this time, Su Ze had run over a hundred meters away.
He looked back, a curve forming on the corner of his mouth.
Looks alright? Just don't know how many were killed...
Just then, a series of cold mechanical sounds flooded his mind!
