Cloud Raising Little Zombies: Chapter 10

ZOMBIE EMPEROR CULTIVATION

10. Are you deliberately swindling me of crystal nucleus or not?

【Water Zombie is confused.】

【Mutant Paradise Blue feels wronged.】

【Scoundrel ¹ ability user says this is just absurd.】

【Although I also think Zai Zai’s situation of counting every grain is pretty pitiful, let’s be honest, it’s really only Zai Zai who bullies others.】

【You Zai: Bully me? I already took their crystal nuclei.】

With the help of the viewers in the live stream chat, Chi Xin quickly understood what had happened during this time.

In just one day, Ye You had encountered three elite monsters.

Even though Ye You had won each time, Chi Xin still felt a pang of heartache seeing her beloved character in such a pitiful state.

【Zai, even if you’re focused on leveling up, you shouldn’t wrong yourself ah.】

Ye You recognized this person’s name.

“Stars in the Pond” was the one who had first given him a lollipop, and also the one who had initially spoken with him from behind the screen.

For someone he was familiar with, Ye You was willing to share some of his thoughts.

“I’m not suffering. I won every battle, and I still have two crystal nuclei left.”

Out of all the encounters, only the one with the Water Zombie could be considered a real fight. The crystal nuclei from the mutated plants and the ability user had come too easily.

Ye You didn’t feel like he’s wronged himself at all.

The viewers in the live stream were all surprised that the streamer actually started chatting with them.

Those who had been watching the stream for a while knew that the streamer had a very unique streaming style. He would play his game, and whether the viewers sent comments or gifts, he wouldn’t respond. At most, when everyone was clamoring to see the crystal nuclei, he would silently return to his room, clean the crystal nuclei, and show them.

This made the viewers feel a mix of love and frustration.

Over the course of the day, they had gotten used to it. Even if the streamer didn’t interact with them all day, they still found the stream entertaining.

But if the streamer was willing to interact, they were more than happy to oblige. Suddenly, the screen was flooded with all kinds of comments.

【Zai Zai, talk more during the stream. Mom wants to hear your voice.】

【Zai, how did you get into this beta test? Tell me how, and I’ll join you!】

【Looking at the gender check on previous comments, are there really this many male “moms” around now?】

As the comments rolled in, a giant cake suddenly descended from the top of the screen, with streamers floating down.

【“Stars in the Pond” sent a thousand-layer cake to the streamer “Ye You”: Zai Zai, you can’t just ignore such serious injuries. There’s an infirmary in the school; go get some medicine and bandage yourself up.】

【“Stars in the Pond” sent another thousand-layer cake to the streamer “Ye You”: Also, take a bath and change your clothes. Your clothes are all torn up, and you must have a lot of wounds. If you don’t clean them and apply medicine, they’ll get infected.】

As soon as the two cakes were sent, countless viewers started paying homage to the wealthy fan. Others explained that the streamer was a zombie, and that even if he applied medicine, the wounds probably wouldn’t heal.

However, the viewers unanimously agreed that the streamer should take a bath.

Since zombies don’t need sleep and Ye You had to wait for Su Zi’an to wake up, meaning he couldn’t go far to hunt for food, he decided to have zombies retrieve medicine from the infirmary. Seeing comments suggesting that he needed clothes and towels, Ye You then directed another group of zombies to go to the school’s supermarket.

The infirmary’s door was wide open, so the zombies easily entered and found the necessary medical supplies and first aid kits.

The supermarket, however, was more challenging since they needed to break open the door first.

Under Ye You’s control, the zombies used tools to smash the door open, but as soon as they entered, they were met with an immediate attack.

There were still humans inside the supermarket.

Ye You didn’t want to waste time on humans who didn’t even have crystal nuclei. He directed some of the zombies to distract the humans, while others bypassed the fight to enter the supermarket and, wearing gloves, selected the needed items.

As the zombies walked by carrying buckets, basins, towels, and shower gel, the students fighting for their lives were stunned.

Turns out even you zombies come to the supermarket to gather supplies?

This was utterly ridiculous!

The zombies brought the items back to the dormitory.

When the viewers saw the array of bath products, the chat exploded with comments, and the gifts flooded in like crazy.

【Ahhh, let me into the game! I want to wash Zai Zai’s back!】

【You guys are going too far, let me into the game—I’ll stand guard for Zai Zai!】

【Above, you guys’ think is very problematic ah.】

【You fake “mom” fans are all expelled from the fandom!】

【Who cares about being a fan when you can watch our darling take a bath?】

【Zai! Turn off the stream!】

Ye You looked at the screen, bewildered.

He didn’t understand what the people behind the screen were getting so excited about, and not knowing how to turn off the stream, he decided to simply ignore them.

Leaving some zombies to guard the dormitory entrance, Ye You carried a bucket of bath supplies into the bathroom, setting down a plastic basin filled with clothes and other items.

Since there was no electricity and no hot water in the dormitory, Ye You used the bucket to fill up with cold water.

He’s a zombie, so as the viewers in the chat mentioned, taking a cold shower and getting sick simply won’t happen.

When Ye You finished filling the bucket and started unbuttoning his shirt, he noticed that the entire screen was covered by a massive mosaic.

Immediately, the chat was flooded with question marks.

【???】

【That’s it? That’s it? That’s it? My tears are falling from the corners of my mouth, and this is all I get to see?】

【Even the sound is gone…】

【Ugh, do they have to be this harsh? A bloody scene only gets one layer of mosaic, but when Zai Zai takes a bath, it’s full-screen thick mosaic with no sound.】

【Heh, all of you have lost your “mom” fan status.】

After Ye You finished his bath and changed clothes, he exited the bathroom, and the mosaic on the screen finally disappeared.

The school’s supermarket only sold school uniforms, so Ye You was now wearing an autumn uniform from Yi Zhong. The main color of the uniform was white, with a black collar, and black stripes running down the sides of the long sleeves, giving it a very youthful appearance.

【Wuwuwu, my Zai Zai is so adorable.】

【 You Zai’s ten years mom fan has come uninvited.】

Ye You returned to the bedside.

Just as he was about to sit down and continue reading the chat to pass the time, he noticed Su Zi’an, lying on the opposite bed, with his lips slightly moving, as if he were saying something.

Was he waking up?

Ye You leaned in closer, only to hear rapid breathing.

He extended his mental power and probed the white fog in Su Zi’an’s brain.

——Hungry, hungry, hungry, hungry!

Ye You: “…”

Why the hell are you hungry too?!

Instinctively, Ye You covered the crystal nuclei in his pocket.

He turned away, clutching the crystals as he paced around the dormitory.

Based on today’s experience, he needed to consume two crystal nuclei a day—one in the morning and one at night—to avoid feeling hungry.

But now, he only had two cores left, and they were meant to be his food for tomorrow.

Should he give one to Su Zi’an?

As Ye You’s gaze fell on Su Zi’an’s pale face, he took a deep breath and slowly walked over, pulling out the crystal nuclei.

After a long moment of indecision between the two crystals, Ye You finally put the ash-gray one from the ability user back into his pocket.

Bending down, he pried open Su Zi’an’s mouth and reluctantly placed the water-blue crystal nucleus inside.

With a grim expression, Ye You turned to leave, intending to get some fresh air outside.

Behind him, Su Zi’an slowly opened his eyes.

He stared dazedly at Ye You’s back and hoarsely called out, “Ge…”

Su Zi’an’s voice was almost inaudible, but Ye You, with his sharp senses, caught that faint call and abruptly turned around.

Seeing Su Zi’an awake, Ye You was filled with disbelief, and a sudden surge of betrayal and frustration welled up within him.

He didn’t wake up earlier or later, but right after eating the crystal nucleus…

Are you deliberately swindling me of crystal nucleus or not?!
