Chapter 357: The Place Watched by God

"Among this group of newcomers, you have the best physical fitness."

Zheping looked up and saw a man with short black hair and a scar on his face, sitting on a square metal "box" with four black wheels, teasing him in a gangster manner.

He was wearing a green military jacket and a white vest, and had wounds of varying sizes all over his body.

The muscles beneath his clothes were strong, no less than the strongest soldier Zheping had seen in the resistance army, and the murderous aura on his body was even more powerful.

"Hello, senior. May I ask where is this place?"

Zheping forced a smile on his face, and the moment he regained the ability to move, he touched the wound on his chest.

But both the flowing blood and the torn clothes were intact at this moment, as if they had never existed before.

Moreover, the surrounding environment was strange and bizarre. No matter how stupid he was, he knew that this place was completely outside the territory of Inazuma, and even...

"Let's talk about it together after everyone wakes up. It's too troublesome to explain them one by one."

The scarred man looked relaxed. He ignored Zheping's greeting and had no intention of explaining. He just took out a metal box from his arms and pulled out a cylindrical object. Then he rubbed his hands and ignited the object with flame, and a thin cloud of smoke spread out.

"Is that tobacco?"

Zheping's eyes narrowed. He had seen big shots in the city sometimes smoke something called "opium", but he had never seen the kind in the man's hand before. However, the smoke exhaled by this man looked much more advanced than that of the masters in the city.

Gradually, Teppei began to observe the other people around him, including five men and two women.

"Hello, do you know where this is?"

After him, the first person to wake up was a middle-aged man in a white T-shirt. He looked like an office worker from the city, but such clothes were fresh enough for Teppei.

"My name is Zheng Song. This is the first time I've seen such a strange place. If I run into any danger later, please take care of me."

Zheping is a nice guy by nature, so he has no resistance to the sophisticated ways of getting close to urban white-collar workers. But what he doesn't know is that ordinary people would naturally show some respect to him when they see him wearing a military uniform with a "real thing" on his waist.

The rest of the people also gradually woke up. Among them were a beautiful writer from the city and a government agent from some "Dragon Group". Their identities, backgrounds, and cities were slightly different. Anyway, Zheping didn't recognize any of them. Only a man in a green uniform in the crowd looked like him.

The refreshing green color was exactly the clothing from the Adventurer's Association, which made Zheping feel very familiar.

The man from the Adventurer's Association also secretly breathed a sigh of relief after seeing Zheping.

The two of them quickly got together. In this strange place, it was hard for people with the same background not to stick together for warmth.

After the conversation, Zheping learned that the adventurer was from Mond and was heard to be a famous adventurer named Stanley.

"Okay, let me make an announcement. Look at me."

The sound of clapping attracted everyone's attention. If they wanted to know the truth of it all, they could only turn to the man in front of them.

"My name is not important. It doesn't matter what you were doing before you came here. Think about it carefully. The most basic rules have been put into your minds by the space."

The man's words seemed to have a unique magic. It was as if some kind of mechanism was opened in Zheping's head, and a piece of information appeared in his mind out of thin air.

[Here, is the place where all worlds meet. The strong can be tested, and the weak can also have a chance to breathe. ]

【Gather the power of cause and effect, and everything can be realized. 】

【The infinite future and possibilities will be created by you. 】

In an instant, Zheping understood how magical and bizarre the place he was in front of was.

The words "myriad heavens and myriad worlds" are too difficult to understand for Zheping, who has never been abroad since he was a child, but in short, he knows that this is a place much larger than the continent of Teyvat.

"I didn't expect that there would be such a miracle in the world..."

A surge of emotion surged in Teppei's heart. According to what the voice said, as long as he could possess the thing called "power of will", even a nobody like him would have the opportunity to become stronger.

“Really, anything is possible?”

In the crowd, other participants who received the same news also showed excitement, and they stretched out their hands to ask questions to the scarred man.

"Yes, yes, indeed, everything can be exchanged, whether it is nearly infinite money or nearly eternal life, as long as you want it, "Infinite Space" can make it happen."

"But the premise of all this is that you must first survive this 'Novice Trial'." The scarred man picked his ears out of boredom, as if his ears were already callused from hearing similar questions.

"How do you prove that this isn't a scam? What if you just kidnapped us to a place like this?"

Suddenly, an inappropriate voice came from the mouth of a little fat boy behind him, which startled Zheping.

Because the current environment was so different from where he lived, Zheping never doubted the authenticity of this place from the beginning.

But for people who are familiar with the modern environment, seeing the hustle and bustle of traffic around them, they will inevitably suspect something like kidnapping.

A smile appeared on the scarred man's lips, as if he had been waiting for some objection from the crowd.

"call."

A black shadow streaked across the sky, and Zheping couldn't even catch its trajectory. The next second, the sound of flesh falling heavily to the ground reached everyone's ears.

"Woo, woo!"

The scarred man was even faster than a cheetah. He pressed the fat man's face heavily to the ground with his big hand. The heavy sound made it seem as if he wanted to crush his head.

Everyone clearly saw that the fat man's eyes suddenly turned white, his limbs raised up instinctively for survival, and then he fell to the ground weakly.

"what!"

Screaming, almost everyone was frightened by the scarred man's actions. Some were on guard, some stepped back, and some remained indifferent.

"I'll say this one last time. You can treat this as a game, or as a second life. Either way, it's your choice. Don't blame me if you die."

The scarred man stood up with a grim look on his face. He used some unknown means, but the almost unconscious fat man woke up gasping for breath. His lower body became visibly wet, and an unpleasant smell was transmitted into the air.

"You're lucky this time. The novice trial is the simplest 'zombie type', and the difficulty is only less than 10 people."

"Cherish this opportunity."

"Um, what's your name, brother?"

After seeing that the man's skills far exceeded those of ordinary people, the other participants immediately became polite.

"Haha, there's no need to try to get close to me. You can call me 'Guide'. After this novice trial, we'll go our separate ways."

The man happily held the cigarette between his lips, and as soon as he finished speaking, the golden film next to the few people gradually faded until it disappeared.

At the same time, several lines of text appeared in everyone's mind, just like the voice at the beginning.

[Novice Trial]

[World: High School of the Dead]

【The tasks are as follows】

【Basic level: Survive for seven days. 】

[Normal level: Kill 100 zombies. ]

[Excellent level: Save a city and build a shelter. ]

[Legendary: Find the source of the zombie outbreak and develop a perfect antidote.]

【……………(Higher levels waiting to be unlocked)】

"Okay, let's get started, hahaha!"

Along with the man’s laughter, what reached the ears of all participants was the deafening roar of countless zombies!
Everyone's face changed suddenly, only Zheping clenched his fist silently.

In his opinion, being able to escape from the previous death situation was a kind of luck.

"Sure enough, I will also be noticed by the gods..."
