Chapter 146 - Scammers VS Zombies!
Chapter 146 – Scammers VS Zombies!
The men looked at each other in the eyes and nodded at each other. One of the men walked out the circle to face Wei Xiao Bei. He hesitantly asked while looking like he was prepared to turn around and run for his life.
“You- you are?”
Crafty-looking!
Wei Xiao Bei casted him a glance and made a conclusion that these people were not good people.
“I am the manager here!”
Wei Xiao Bei would never think of giving these kinds of people any face. When he opened his mouth, he immediately hopped to placed himself in a high position.
He had made out that these people simply did not notice what kind of place this was. As he spoke, he did not even worry about threatening them especially in the case that they would bring him trouble later.
If it were not because these people had appeared in the downtown plaza and were close to his building, Wei Xiao Bei would not even pay attention to them.
Seeing this trend, Wei Xiao Bei guessed that the people entering The Dust World would increase in the future.
Could it be that I have to be their baby sitter?
“Are you the leader? Right, please give us justice. This person bit some people and even scratched us.”
“Our demands are not high. 500,000 yuan is enough.”
“Just 500,000!”
Hearing that Wei Xiao Bei was the manager, the ones in the inner circle immediately threw themselves on the ground and kneeled towards Wei Xiao Bei. Even the woman lying on the ground, who Wei Xiao Bei thought was dead, also crawled over. If Wei Xiao Bei did not quickly dodge them, then his leg might have been hugged.
In reality, Wei Xiao Bei became lifeless after seeing this scene.
These undisguised scammers actually tried to fight against a Zombie!
There’s something wrong with this situation!
Why the fuck did they knock against it!
That is a Zombie! Does a Zombie even have money to pay you?
No matter what was said, Wei Xiao Bei felt so angry it was as if his head was about to discharge fumes.
“Ok. Do what you want.”
Wei Xiao Bei felt that if he communicated with these people too much he might be unable to endure and just blow off their heads.
It was because of these people that society’s values had reached the bottom line.
If Wei Xiao Bei did not think that these people would not live long in The Dust World, Wei Xiao Bei would have impulsively helped the heavens get rid of them.
“Leader! Leader! You are the leader, you must give us justice.”
Seeing Wei Xiao Bei did not move. The scammers became more daring and shouted.
They were too used to using these methods.
If it was just one scammer, then calling the police over would be game over for them.
But they were different. They were a group of eight people. Even if the local police was dispatched, they would use scum-like techniques to more or less press the victim for money.
After all, most of the time, these matters were difficult to understand thoroughly, especially in places without cameras.
Moreover, because there were a lot of them, the local police that would be sent to deal with them would have no choice but to ask for a compromise with the victim.
The Chinese people? A majority of them had the mindset of ‘the less complications, the better.’
As a result, these scammers would succeed over and over again. Even if they would occasionally lose, they would only be locked in prison for two days.
Compared to their income, this was not a big deal at all.
“Get lost!”
Wei Xiao Bei started getting really annoyed by these people. Wei Xiao Bei even had the thought of never falling in love ever again, when he saw the woman in her thirties, who baredher yellowing teeth, try to hug him.
He swung his machete towards the Zombie that was pinned down by the two women. As the blade flashed, the head of the Zombie flew away.
This scene startled the scammers.
After quite a while, someone among the observers that were taking pictures immediately let out an ear piercing scream.
“What are you shouting for! I will cut down whoever shouts!”
Wei Xiao Bei would not polite anymore, even if the woman who was screaming somehow became prettier or grew nice curves, he had enough.
The scream immediately stopped. The woman was startled to the point that she could not stop screaming, but her boyfriend beside her covered her mouth.
In their eyes, Wei Xiao Bei was simply like a butcher. Hee drew out his blade and immediately chopped the lunatic’s head off. For them, listening to him was the better option.
As for escaping, there were only three of them who were brave enough to do so. As for the others, even if they wanted to run, their legs had already weakened after they got their timing wrong. Wei Xiao Bei swept a glance over everyone, making them feel a sense of fear that they could never escape from.
“You might think that you are dreaming or in an entertainment program, but let me tell you that you can die here!”
Wei Xiao Bei’s words made everyone look at each other. They did not know if they should believe him or not.
Previously, their attention had been taken away by the scammers and the Zombie’s performance. Adding to the fact that they had just entered The Dust World, they had been influenced by the situation and simply did not pay attention to what kind of place they were in. Now that they had observed things, they felt that something was wrong. Everything in the place was covered by layers of dust. Even the plaza was full of holes as if the place had not been maintained for years.
People who had better eyesight could even see that some buildings were in ruins. Moreover, when they looked at the building that Wei Xiao Bei came from, they felt that it was very strange.
After observing everything around them, whether it was the observers or the scammers, they finally realised the problem that they had appeared in such a strange place.
After Wei Xiao Bei showed his strength, he began asking them questions.
Huang Kun roughly knew how he was able to enter the Dust World, but these people who had just entered did not even remember the process of how they arrived.
They only remembered that they were sleeping at home and then appeared here in the next moment. If Wei Xiao Bei did not warn them, they would not have sensed the strangeness of the place and would have still moved and acted as if they were in a dream.
At this time, these people finally came to their senses. Their phones did not have any signal, and they were unable to connect to the internet. The place was like an uninhabited island that carried deep malice in every corner. This made their backs shiver with a chill.
These people did not all come from Cui Hu City. Some of them came from the capital city, some from the Coastal Open City. As for the scammers, they were touring around the country while earning money on the way and were currently in a southern city.
“Could this place be God’s Domain? Could we have been chosen to carry out quests? And then convert them into attributes, blood channels, skills, weapons, and other things to strengthen ourselves?
The senior high schooler that had been playing games while lowering his head the whole time, looked up.
God’s Domain?
Wei Xiao Bei bitterly smiled. The so-called God’s Domain was a web novel and Wei Xiao Bei just happened to have read it before. In the novel, there was a mysterious space managed by a god. The god would choose people who no longer had any hope in life and bring them in. The god would then send them to a random movie scene, give them tasks and let them earn points. After every scene ends, the survivors would return to the space and then exchange their points for various things.
According to the story, almost anything could be exchanged, from attributes to divinity.
Other than that, there were also luxury goods, money and other various thing. Moreover, the price for exchanging things was so cheap that every failure of a human being in the real world, envied the characters in the story.
In reality, Wei Xiao Bei felt that the only similarity The Dust World had with God’s Domain was the danger. This place did not have something like a goods system that would allow you to exchange points. This place also did not have a safe place for people to even take a break.
His own status panel also relied on evolution points to increase his attributes and skills.
“This place is not some God’s Domain. I suggest everyone to find a weapon to defend themselves. Other than that, people who have food and water should not waste them. This place is not a paradise for you to enjoy in.”
Wei Xiao Bei did not want to talk to these people. After saying these words, he prepared to move out. His own food and water supply was also going short. He needed to quickly find the apartment building he previously lived in. Naturally, it would also be a lot better if he could find food and water as he explored the place.
However, before he left, something strange happened!
The woman that had been previously bitten suddenly turned pale and dropped down on the ground, shocking everyone there.
Wei Xiao Bei was startled as he saw the familiar scene. He seemed to have seen something similar in Resident Evil.
Could this be the symptoms of the Zombie virus?
In the next moment, the woman gradually turned still as her mouth bubbled with blood.
Seeing this scene, people quietly pulled back and watched from a distance. They were not idiots. It was clear to them what had happened to the woman.
Whether it was an infectious disease or not, nothing good would come out from it.
“Xiao Lian? Are you okay?”
The thinnest man from the scammer group held the woman with anxiety. The relationship between them seemed to be lovers or husband and wife.
“Wu wu wu.”
The woman let out some unclear sounds. The thin man immediately moved his ear closer, but immediately shouted, “AHhh!”
Everyone could see that the woman bit on the man’s ear while grabbing the man’s body. The woman then began to pull, and immediately tore off the ear in a few tries.
The man tragically shouted and tried taking back his ear, but the woman was already chewing on it, turning it into meat paste.
“Xiao Lian! Have you gone nuts?”
