"Do I really need to wait here?" Liu Yang asked casually.
"Yes. All those who have entered the Zombie World need to stay here to make sure nothing is wrong. Some tried to hide their injuries to return home, some were even about to become zombies, this is problematic. You had your arm cut off, so you need to continue monitoring." A man in a suit answered his question.
Currently, Liu Yang was inside a glass tube, but he got naked so people could see if he was turning into a zombie or not.
It wasn't just him, but many other Hunters who entered the Zombie World as well.
Women were placed in another location, which only had women.
The location was close to the portal but surrounded by magical barriers to prevent anyone from trying to break the glass tube to escape after the transformation began.
Those who had signs of the zombie transformation were either killed or put to sleep. They were used as guinea pigs so that scientists could find a way to neutralize the zombie venom and reverse the transformation.
Some Hunters recognized Liu Yang because he was someone very famous, but seeing him on the spot was interesting because he was only level 0.
Losing just one hand was a miraculous thing.
Many lost their arms or legs.
The waiting time inside the tubes was twelve hours, then they were released.
…
For the next few days, the students at school were looking at him strangely because of his previous adventure.
Recent news about a new portal being opened and Hunters invited by the government or guilds to explore the place has been seen by many people.
Especially young people, Liu Yang attending classes without one of his hands shows a high probability that he went to Zombie World.
Some students even joke that he almost turned into a zombie or could turn into one at any time.
But none of them spoke to him directly because of his hidden status, he was even stronger than many students in the school.
…
During snack time…
Liu Yang was on the school terrace eating peacefully and slowly.
But not for long.
A group of young men with haughty looks walked up to him to show their superiority.
"Armless boy, I want you out of here. That place belongs to us now." One of them commented with an arrogant tone.
From accessories such as a watch, belt, and necklace, it was possible to perceive that he was a rich person.
"..." But Liu Yang didn't even care about that.
The other side might have money, but they were too weak and inexperienced.
"A Hunter without an arm is just an idiot. Beat him so he can learn to respect the richest." He ordered his small group with an angry tone.
Being ignored was really something he hated most.
"You should listen to the richest. They are not people you can offend." The young people weren't afraid to fight, so they did what was asked.
Unfortunately, it was the wrong decision.
bang!!! crack!!! bang!!! crack!!!
boom!!! boom!!!!
"ARGGGG!!!!!!" The three subordinates receive quick, hard kicks. They fall to the ground with pain in their legs.
Liu Yang attacked before they could attack.
It was so fast that they couldn't even act.
"Do you really dare to attack??!!! Who do you think you are??!! You are just level 0!!! Trash like you…!!!!" He didn't even have time to finish talking.
PANG!!!!!!
A punch in his face was strong enough to make the young man faint.
Liu Yang sat down on the floor again to finish eating before heading back to the classroom, leaving the four youths slumped over.
…
In the principal's office…
"Liu Yang, what happened on the terrace? Why did you hit them?" The headmaster was a middle-aged man dressed in business clothes, but he had a strong aura like a high-level Hunter.
The students hit by him went to the principal's office to complain about the blows. They invented a few things to add to the lie, but the director was not going to be fooled easily.
"I just defended myself. The ones who surrounded me and tried to attack me"
"That's a lie!!! He's the one who attacked us first. We didn't do anything" A young man yelled in rage because the three subordinates didn't even have a chance to react to Liu Yang's attack before falling to the ground with pain in their legs.
"Wu Hao, I've heard your part of the story, now is the time for me to hear Liu Yang's part of the story." The director didn't mind the protests and remained focused on Liu Yang.
"I just defended myself first to prevent them from attacking. I'm only one-handed, so I was at a disadvantage, but I never thought they would be so weak." Liu Yang justified himself.
"You!!!!! Liu Yang, you will regret attacking me."
"So should I rip your head off?" His eyes turned cold and murderous.
Unlike the casual personality he shows in front of people, there was another side hidden within him. The side he only shows to the targets he wants to kill.
"!!!!!!" The four young men felt as if they were facing a dangerous, cold-blooded killer. They've never felt anything so terrifying before.
Liu Yang was like a reaper who would cut off their heads.
"Liu Yang, stop" The director waved his hand.
"..." The cold and murderous aura disappeared.
"You can leave. It's better not to cause trouble at my school again. Or I'll have to punish you"
"Yes…" The four left disheartened, but fear still lingers in their hearts.
The young man named Wu Hao viciously looked at Liu Yang before walking through the door.
