The Villain's Face Slapping Counterattack

Chapter 15

Face-Slapping the Original Leaders of the Military Base (Apocalypse)

After his death, Zhou Xu once again entered a vast space. Suddenly, a vague shadow passed through the space. Zhou Xu wanted to pursue it, but he could not find any trace of that shadow.

In a certain ward of Noah Star, the highest-ranked admiral of Noah [1] had been lying in bed for more than a hundred days. His pale face suddenly seemed to improve a little. His eyelids moved, but he did not wake up in the end.

Slowly opening his eyes, Zhou Xu was startled by the ruined landscape in front of him. He quickly recovered, and a faint pain came from his little finger.

System data was sent to Zhou Xu’s brain. After reading the information , Zhou Xu could only sit up straight without a word. This villain was the most boring villain.

This was an apocalyptic world. Zhou Xu was Wang Ying’s ex-boyfriend. He broke up before the end of the world happened. But Zhou Xu, a fool, still liked Wang Ying and stuck to her all the time.

However, Wang Ying was not the heroine of this world. The heroine of this world was her cousin Tang Wanxin. Wang Ying had been jealous of Tang Wanxin since childhood and attacked her in all aspects. After the end of the world occurred, she even locked Tang Wanxin up in her home, ready to starve her to death.

However, Tang Wanxi was unexpectedly saved by Ding Zhaoyu, the male lord (t/n: protagonist), and he took her out of the city overrun by zombies.

A few weeks later, Wang Ying and Tang Wanxin, who were enemies on a narrow road [2] met again, and the male lord, who knew what Wang Ying had done, was very angry. So, in the process of dealing with the zombies, Wang Ying and Zhou Xu were directly thrown away, just how like Wang Ying treated Tang Wanxin at the beginning. But only this time, Wang Ying did not have Tang Wanxin's luck. At last, Wang Ying and Zhou Xu were bitten to death by the zombies.

After that, the heroine and the male lord went to the base, beat the zombies, and grabbed supplies. The male lord Ding Zhaoyu also obtained a lot of potatoes, promoted potato cultivation in the base, solved the problem of food and clothing in the base, and finally, the heroine achieved a comfortable life, and the male lord became the top leader of the base. He gradually expanded the base, and they reached the peak of life in the apocalyptic world.

The male lord became the leader of the base. Nobody cared about how he got the potatoes, and all they knew was that he saved everyone. But the secret of the potatoes were actually told by Zhou Xu’s father to Ding Zhaoyu, and he told Ding Zhaoyu that he was bitten by a zombie. Ding Zhaoyu, for the safety of the base, endured grief and indignation and shot him on the way back to the base.

After reading the information, Zhou Xu sneered and laughed aloud. The original Zhou Xu was actually a fool. Because he liked Wang Ying, he fixed all of his attention on her without any principle. Knowing that Wang Ying hated the heroine, he had been bullying the heroine. The crucial point was that Wang Ying had never liked him and was just completely using him.

Okay, all of the information had been read. Now, Zhou Xu needed to see how he can use his abilities to get away from all of the traps.

Yes, the time of his rebirth was very coincidental. It was right when he and Wang Ying were thrown away by Ding Zhaoyu and Tang Wanxin.

They were now locked up in a warehouse. In a few hours, the zombies will attack the place. When Ding Zhaoyu left, he wiped many people’s blood on the door. Zhou Xu and Wang Ying were knocked unconscious and thrown into the warehouse.

At this point, Zhou Xu did not want to pay attention to Wang Ying, who was in a coma. She was not a good person herself.

The warehouse was so empty that there was no place to hide. As long as the zombies broke through the door, he would die. So Zhou Xu needed to escape before the zombies caught the smell of blood.

Zhou Xu was now tall and strong. Compared with the previous world, he was bigger [3]. So he did not hesitate to go to the inside faucet of the warehouse and kicked it hard. The faucet became crooked. He kicked the other side of the water pipe again.

With a crash, the water pipe fell, with a crooked faucet at one end.

Walking back to the warehouse door with the water pipe, Zhou Xu then began to smash the door lock.

The door lock was very strong. Zhou Xu smashed the door for an hour before he broke it open. At the same time, Wang Ying woke up.

With the door finally opened, Zhou Xu looked back at Wang Ying, who had just awakened, and said gently, “Follow me, Wang Ying.”

Yes, Zhou Xu’s character in this world was very gentle. He was very unkind to the hostess because he blindly liked Wang Ying, but was very gentle to other people.

Zhou Xu originally wanted to change his character, but it was not very good to change it immediately. He had to change it slowly, let Wang Ying regret it, and let Ding Zhaoyu fail. He would never suffer the pain of death again.

Thinking about his father who was thrown down by Ding Zhaoyu, Zhou Xu released a cold hum. He did not believe that his father was bitten by a zombie. Ding Zhaoyu’s character of an "eye for an eye" showed that he was also a sinister person, but it was just that his insidious nature was low-key.

Now, Zhou Xu wanted to see who overshadowed who [4].

Zhou Xu was not the main protagonist but his appearance was definitely not bad. In this life, he was masculine. Although his personality was not sunny enough, his head was flat, his forehead was exposed. His eyebrows were thick, and his eyes were big and distinctly monochrome. He had a clear, straight nose, moderate thick lips, and the lines on his face were firm. He seemed like a tough man overall.

But when Zhou Xu smiled, his facial features immediately softened up, and there was this spring wind and rain power [5]. However, he was kind to Wang Ying, but she disliked him.

At first, Wang Ying accepted Zhou Xu because of his distinguished family background. Later, Zhou Xu’s mother died of illness and the Zhou company collapsed. Zhou Xu, a rich second generation, could do nothing but talk about love. So before the end of world even began, Wang Ying dumped Zhou Xu, who was a useless waste.

At the beginning of the apocalypse, Zhou Xu’s father was in another city, and the two were separated.

Now was the moment of life and death. Wang Ying has just awakened her power, but the ability was very low. Although Zhou Xu did not exhibit any powers, he could still be used to block zombies, Wang Ying thought. She followed Zhou Xu and ran out.

Once he ran out, Zhou Xu had only one difficulty left to face. The zombies were only ten meters away.

Quickly running in the opposite direction, Zhou Xu could not believe it. He was previously controlled by the system to play the villain. Now that he had gotten rid of the system, how could he die?

What a joke!

The speed of the zombies was not fast, almost the same speed as Zhou Xu, but there was one thing: the zombies don't get tired. Zhou Xu and Wang Ying can't keep running, so Zhou Xu must find a way to completely escape the group of deadly zombies.

Outside the abandoned warehouse was a vast area of open space. Before the apocalypse, it would have been farmland so Zhou Xu avoided it. But Zhou Xu knew that if it was farmland, there would probably be sprinklers, or at least wells and other places. In this way, after a period of time, maybe the zombies would be attracted by other flavors, and they would escape the catastrophe.

But after running for more than half an hour, Zhou Xu still hadn't found anything, and Wang Ying’s physical strength was exhausted. Although Zhou Xu’s body could last for a little longer, it was not much better.

The zombies were still roaring and chasing after them, but Zhou Xu and Wang Ying had reached the end of the road.

While Zhou Xu was running, he was suddenly strongly pulled back, and then Wang Ying’s knife dashed towards him.

Experience more than one hundred worlds made Zhou Xu very sensitive. At the moment when Wang Ying's thoughts changed, Zhou Xu had already perceived the danger, so he immediately avoided it. Wang Ying looked at Zhou Xu and was shocked. Zhou Xu knocked Wang Ying to the ground with one blow.

Although it missed the crucial point, Wang Ying’s knife still stabbed Zhou Xu’s thigh.

Immediately, Zhou Xu's eyes were full of tears. Step on a horse [6], it hurt so much!

Wang Ying stood up, trembling, and said to Zhou Xu, who was kneeling on one knee because of pain, “Zhou Xu, don’t you love me? Then die for me, I will remember you well.”

What the fuck, Zhou Xu was betrayed once again. The taste was so sour that he just wanted to strangle himself and be reborn. What a lousy, kind-hearted fart! Wang Ying was not a good person in her last life. You knew, yet you still took her to escape with you. It’s ridiculous.

Wang Ying ran away. Zhou Xu’s leg was injured, so he could not escape, and the smell of blood would always attract zombies. Finally, he decided not to run away.

The zombies stepped closer to Zhou Xu, and the sweet smell of blood stimulated them. Zhou Xu took out the only self-defense weapon that he had on his body, a dagger.

Forget it, just fight it, Zhou Xu made a decision. If he could not live, he would only die once again. It’s no big deal. If he could live, he would let everyone pay the price.

More than a dozen zombies attacked. Zhou Xu looked behind him. Very good, after this wave, there was another wave rushing here. They were hungry too. It's difficult to find meat to eat, so they must grab it.

With his head slightly lowered, Zhou Xu sneered. He'll just kill them one by one. For each two that he killed, another one appeared.

“Plop.” The sound of the knife plunging into the body.

Zhou Xu pulled out his dagger and stabbed another zombie in the temple.

In terms of the strength of his force, Zhou Xu can say that he was absolutely a master, but no matter how strong he was, he had to lose to the wheel battle [7].

After the first wave of corpses had been cleared, more than two dozen zombies had already arrived. Zhou Xu looked up again. What the fuck. There was a third wave.

Okay, let’s play. He’s earned a lot anyways.

“Hmm…” The low roar of the corpse echoed in the open field, as fierce as evil spirits. Zhou Xu was injured, and he didn't have much strength left. His back had been bitten by a corpse, and the wound was dull and painful.

Very well, even if he was not eaten, he would become a zombie.

The journey was so short that he himself was amazed at it.

The edges of the dagger had already become dull, and could no longer cut the corpse. Zhou Xu was bitten by a corpse to the arm, and the piercing pain came again.

Tears beginning to fall, Zhou Xu thought, stepping on a horse, it really hurt.

His eyes began to blur, his voice began to dry up, and his body began to heat. Before Zhou Xu fell to the ground, he only saw someone shooting the zombies behind him. Zhou Xu didn't have the time to see the man.

All the zombies were solved in a few minutes. The leader of the new arrivals looked at Zhou Xu on the ground and said, “Move.”

“Boss, what’s he going to do? He’s been bitten by a zombie. Do you want to kill him?”

The man looked at Zhou Xu, who was bloody and fuzzy on the ground. He shook his head and said, “I don’t kill anybody. Move!”

He meant that Zhou Xu was still a person at the moment. If he became a zombie next time, he would not let him go. Although Zhou Xu feel down, he was still conscious. He heard the man’s voice very cold, but it’s not unpleasant to hear, just right.

Notes:

If anyone’s confused about the dagger thing, I think Zhou Xu took out Wang Ying’s dagger. Originally, I thought it just grazed his thigh.

I guess I’m back haha. I will try to do 2x a week, Wednesday and Sunday, at 7 pm. If you see any mistakes, comment to let me know!

(Also, to translators out there, if you’re interested in picking up this book, shoot me a message! The future of this book after arc 2 is unclear)
