Chapter 54: There is an Earthquake, Run for Your Lives!

Darkness, stench, and decay; it was like a sewer beneath a deserted city.

If Busujima Meiken had not said this was the testing ground for the “Apocalypse” plan, not only Wei Ziqing, but anyone would never believe that this devastated place was actually the site where the global Doomsday was being implemented.

Along the way, the three of them moved forward cautiously, fearing they would disturb countless zombies and provoke a swarm attack.

After all, if it was truly as Busujima Meiken said—that there was an Extraterrestrial Meteorite here that could stimulate zombie evolution—then this place would certainly possess endless zombies.

However, the cautiousness of the three soon gradually turned into a heavy silence.

Because, besides the rotting corpses that had turned into white bones all over the ground, they saw nothing else—not a single zombie, not even a ghost shadow!

“Father, is this really the ‘Apocalypse’ experimental base?” Busujima Saeko did not want to doubt her father, but she had no choice, so she could not help but ask.

“This…” Busujima Meiken’s face looked a bit stiff. He did not know what was happening, but he was one hundred percent sure that this was the place; he could not possibly have remembered it wrong.

Wei Ziqing did not speak; he believed this place was a laboratory.

Although he was not sure why there were no zombies here, he simply believed it, without needing a reason.

When he stepped into this passage, it felt as if a faint voice was calling to him in his heart; it was not real, yet he felt it!

Suddenly, Wei Ziqing’s expression changed abruptly. A look of terror appeared on his face, and he stopped in his tracks.

“Teacher?” Busujima Saeko had never seen Wei Ziqing look like this before. Her expression also changed, and she looked at him.

Wei Ziqing did not answer her. Instead, he looked at Busujima Meiken and pointed to the very end of the passage, toward a laboratory shrouded in darkness with its door wide open.

“Senior, tell me, what place is that?”

“That place?” Following Wei Ziqing’s gaze, Busujima Meiken was stunned for a moment, then exclaimed, “That is… where the meteorite is located!”

Hearing this, a look of “just as I thought” appeared on Wei Ziqing’s face.

“Teacher, do you mean…” Busujima Saeko seemed to have realized something, and her face became very solemn.

“Yes, just as you think. It is not that there are no zombies here, but rather that all the zombies are in there…”

Many, endless numbers of them.

Wei Ziqing did roughly calculated that there were at least a thousand zombies in there. They were all squeezed into that small laboratory, and their terrifying and vast Psychic Power was like a sea of stars.

And among these countless stars, there was a clump of even denser and larger Psychic Power, which was surrounded by the countless stars like a bright moon.

Wei Ziqing knew that this must be what Busujima Meiken called the Extraterrestrial Meteorite!

Hearing Wei Ziqing’s words, the faces of the father and daughter changed drastically. Since Wei Ziqing said so, it had to be true.

However, Busujima Saeko frowned, because she discovered something: “But why didn’t I notice it? I possess Psychic Power, so logically…”

“It is different…” Wei Ziqing shook his head bitterly.

“Your ability belongs to the source of that meteorite. Here, it will be overshadowed. But I use Qi. For anyone with strength lower than mine, I can discover many things under the perception of Qi!”

“Then… then what do we do?” Busujima Meiken swallowed hard. With thousands of zombies, let alone them, even an army coming here would be swallowed alive.

At this moment, Busujima Meiken really wanted to turn around and leave. Entering that place was simply seeking death!

Actually, not just Busujima Meiken, but Wei Ziqing’s reason was also telling him that he must leave. Otherwise, he would definitely become food for those zombies and leave no remains!

But…

Wei Ziqing’s face was full of unwillingness. Did he really have to leave?

It had been over a year since he came to this world, and there were two years left before he had to go back. Perhaps in these two years, he could reach the Xiantian realm, and there would be a high chance of obtaining the meteorite.

But, would the Nuclear Bomb wait for him?

Could that meteorite truly survive under a Nuclear Bomb?

“Teacher…” Busujima Saeko knew her teacher was struggling. She did not say anything, but simply drew her Murasame Sword. She was with him; if he dared to charge in, then why should she be afraid!

Wei Ziqing looked at Busujima Saeko with some emotion. She did not need to believe in him this much, but he did not respond to her. He fell silent, thinking, struggling, and choosing!

“Brother Wei, you must choose carefully. This place has thousands of zombies. If there were only a hundred, you might be able to pass through unobstructed, but these are thousands. Do you really think you…” Busujima Meiken emphasized the number of zombies again. He somewhat regretted following along!

“Wait.” Hearing Busujima Meiken’s words, Wei Ziqing was suddenly stunned. A spark of inspiration flashed in his mind; he seemed to have caught something. He quickly looked at Busujima Meiken and asked anxiously, “What did you just say?”

“I said there are thousands of zombies, not a few hundred. You are simply not their match!” Busujima Meiken originally thought Wei Ziqing had come to his senses. He looked glad and quickly repeated it.

“Great, let’s do it!”

“What? What did you say?” The relaxed expression on Busujima Meiken’s face suddenly froze. He stepped back several times and looked at Wei Ziqing in disbelief. Had he just misheard?

He really wanted to go in?

“Exactly!” A confident smile appeared on Wei Ziqing’s face. Just now, he had thought of a method. As Busujima Meiken said, he couldn’t deal with thousands, but a few hundred? Did he still need to be afraid?

“Teacher, what do we do?” Busujima Saeko’s whole body tensed up, then slowly relaxed. She gently wiped her Murasame Sword and asked in a low voice.

She knew her teacher; since he smiled, it meant he had absolute confidence!

“Crazy, everyone is crazy! You are a madman, and I didn’t expect my daughter to be a madwoman too. You are all crazy!”

Busujima Meiken stood there dazed, muttering to himself. He regretted it; he regretted coming in. Who knew that these two were both lunatics!

But…

Looking at the situation, Busujima Meiken felt hopeless. He could not think of leaving, because he would never abandon his only daughter!

“Damn it, fine! You’re all crazy, right? Then I’ll be crazy with you!” Gritting his teeth, Busujima Meiken drew his katana with a clang, possessing the spirit of a hero going to his death!

Wei Ziqing looked deeply at Busujima Meiken. To be honest, he really did not expect the man to make that choice. But it was perfect; his plan needed him!

Immediately, he whispered his plan to the two of them. As he spoke, the madness in Busujima Meiken’s eyes gradually faded, replaced by excitement.

Not only him, but Busujima Saeko also looked deeply at Wei Ziqing, her eyes full of admiration. Her teacher was indeed no ordinary person!

“Well? Do you both understand what to do?” Wei Ziqing asked solemnly after finishing. Only after they both nodded did he breathe a sigh of relief and whisper, “Then, let’s begin!”

“Okay!” Busujima Meiken and Busujima Saeko nodded. Father and daughter looked at each other, then suddenly roared loudly: “Damn it! There is an Earthquake! Everyone, run for your lives!”

The sound was very loud, especially in this narrow laboratory, where it echoed endlessly.

At this moment, the whole Mount Fuji seemed to shake slightly. At the base of Mount Fuji, this angry roar echoed continuously:

“Damn it! There is an Earthquake! Everyone, run for your lives!”

“There is an Earthquake! Everyone, run for your lives!”

“Run for your lives!”
