15: No power

Not long after Zhang Xiaoli's small drone flew back, that drone hovered around for a while longer before leaving.

Then, for half an hour, that drone did not reappear.

"Maybe their battery ran out."

Zhang Xiaoli guessed, then asked, "Should I try to lure all these zombies away now?"

"Okay, be careful."

Qin Shilei helped place the drone on the balcony.

Accompanied by a whirring sound, the drone flew to a height of two meters above the zombies' heads.

After circling once, it flew out of the girls' dormitory.

Dense hordes of zombies chased the drone, also running outwards.

Some of the zombies had already left this area.

If it flew a few more rounds, they should be able to clear the siege.

"Damn it! That drone is back, and it brought those zombies back too."

Zhang Xiaoli said angrily, pointing at the screen.

"Come back first."

Qin Shilei said expressionlessly.

He unslung the bow from his back and entered the dormitory's bathroom.

【Inferior Short Bow】

【Do you want to refresh the attributes?】

【Refresh.】

Two white and one red aura appeared on the bow.

A red attribute appeared again.

Qin Shilei happily clicked on the aura.

Sturdy (White): Slightly increases the hardness of the bow body, not bad for hitting people.

Precise (White): Slightly increases accuracy, don't expect too much though.

Tracking (Red): Within twenty meters, 100% hit rate, this is a showing-off artifact.

Alas, what a showing-off artifact!

It really can only be used for showing off.

Because this is an inferior short bow.

When he was killing zombies earlier, Qin Shilei tried to use it to lure monsters.

It only shot an arrowhead into a zombie from about ten meters away, with almost no killing power.

It's a complete waste of such a good red attribute.

If this were a divine bow with an effective range of 500 meters,

then he could instantly transform into a divine archer.

Within a five-hundred-meter range, he could hit whatever he aimed at, why would he fear mere zombies?

Now he can only use it to shoot down drones.

Qin Shilei returned to the dormitory, bow ready.

The balcony door was half-open, and the curtains also left a gap.

Zhang Xiaoli's drone appeared in sight first, followed by the opponent's drone.

"Whoosh!"

Qin Shilei let go of the arrow, which passed through the balcony, then made a turn, accurately hitting the opponent's drone.

The drone wobbled and fell directly from the sky.

On the rooftop of Male Dormitory Building 3.

"My drone seems to have malfunctioned and crashed to the ground."

Sun Wen said with a bitter expression, turning to his younger brother.

"I'll go take a look."

Sun Wu launched his drone and also flew towards the girls' dormitory building.

Two minutes later.

Sun Wu's face instantly turned pale.

Through the screen, he saw an arrow curving towards the drone.

Then the drone lost signal.

What the hell!

An arrow that can curve.

Do you think this is a movie?

"What do we do now?"

"Are we also going to have to kill zombies with kitchen knives?"

"Once Liu Yuanliang knows our drone is gone, he probably won't take us to kill zombies."

Sun Wen and Sun Wu were filled with uncertainty about the future.

Because they had drones, their status in the team was quite superior.

They didn't have to kill zombies, they not only got food but also two crystals.

Now everything was gone.

Leaving aside the disheartened Sun Wen and Sun Wu,

Zhang Xiaoli's eyes instantly filled with admiration when she saw Qin Shilei shoot down two of the opponent's drones with just two casual shots.

She really chose the right person to rely on!

She never expected him to have such unerring archery skills.

Zhang Xiaoli, in a pleasant mood, piloted her drone with even more agility.

She quickly lured all groups of zombies out of the girls' dormitory area.

An hour later.

The zombies downstairs were basically lured away, leaving only a scattered dozen or so zombies in various corners.

Qin Shilei looked at the overcast sky outside and said, "Fly back first, otherwise the drone might get wet from the rain."

"Okay, all three batteries are dead, they need to be charged first."

Zhang Xiaoli nodded in response.

As soon as the drone landed on the balcony, a bolt of lightning streaked across the sky.

"Boom!"

A clap of thunder exploded!

Then, rain as large as soybeans poured down.

"No power?"

Zhang Xiaoli tried again and again, but the charger still showed no response.

Not giving up, she tried to turn on the light switch in the room, but there was no reaction either.

There really was no power!

She didn't know if the power line was struck by lightning or if the power plant was unmanaged and no longer generating electricity.

Zhang Xiaoli looked at Qin Shilei with a worried expression.

Without electricity, the drone became a pile of junk.

Did this mean she had lost her value and was about to be abandoned?

Qin Shilei asked, "Is there a generator in the school?"

Zhang Xiaoli frowned and thought for a while, then suddenly her eyes lit up: "The laboratory in the teaching building has a generator."

"It's just that the laboratory is over a thousand meters away from our dormitory."

Qin Shilei said indifferently, "We'll talk about the generator later, let's eat something first."

"Mm!"

Zhang Xiaoli happily took the bread Qin Shilei handed her.

While eating lunch, she counted the crystals she had harvested.

A total of 121 grey crystals and one bluish-white crystal.

Among them, 56 were dug from killing zombies this morning, and 65 were sold in the morning.

There were still thirty or forty zombie crystals in the open space downstairs that hadn't been dug yet, otherwise the number would be even more gratifying.

Qin Shilei counted out 25 grey crystals and pushed them towards Zhang Xiaoli, "If you absorb these crystals, you should just reach Two-star."

"For me?"

Zhang Xiaoli asked in disbelief.

"Mm, you deserve this." Qin Shilei nodded in response.

Although he had killed all the zombies himself, Zhang Xiaoli had also demonstrated her value, and it was only right that she should receive a portion of the crystals.

After a morning, Qin Shilei had also recognized the value of the drone.

Not to mention, he would need her drone to retrieve the silver treasure chest.

Obedient, sensible, and not stupid.

Such an attractive girl who looked to him for leadership, who would refuse her?

As long as it was beneficial to him, Qin Shilei didn't mind accepting a few reliable teammates.

Over an hour later, Qin Shilei finally finished absorbing all the crystals.

Name: Qin Shilei

Level: Black Iron Six-star

Experience: 24 / 180

Cultivation Method: None

Having leveled up twice, he felt that his strength was at least four or five times what it was when he first transmigrated.

Qin Shilei picked up a dormitory chair and, with a forceful bend, the iron chair leg was folded back 180 degrees.

Now, if he returned to Earth, he would probably be considered half a Superman.

Zhang Xiaoli was also wielding Xu Tiancheng's bone-chopping knife.

Although she had no technique, she chopped and hacked with ease.

"Qin Shilei, thank you! I feel like I can try to deal with zombies now too."

Zhang Xiaoli gained a little more confidence in surviving.

Having leveled up twice, she felt that her physical fitness was no worse than that of those athletic boys.

As it was raining heavily outside, Qin Shilei and his group had no choice but to kill zombies in this building.

Even the zombies locked in the dormitories were released one by one and killed.

When they returned to Zhang Xiaoli's dormitory, they found that her roommate Zhu Yurong was already dead.

Her limbs were incomplete, her face was disfigured, and her body was so badly damaged that she didn't even have a chance to turn into a zombie.

Zhang Xiaoli silently shed tears as she covered her roommate with a quilt, then turned and continued following Qin Shilei to kill zombies.
