A new character appears in Chapter 40 (1/2)

Zhao Xin originally didn't want to kill him, but this young man was too arrogant and could be described as lawless.

When they snatched his things, the boy led the commotion and attacked him mercilessly, without any regard for the consequences, as if bullying others was a great pleasure for him.

With a knife pressed against his neck, they still dared to provoke his bottom line.

Since that's the case, then he'll grant his request.

He pressed slightly against the boy's neck and said coldly, "If you want to die so badly, I'll grant your wish."

As he spoke, he stabbed the other person in the neck with a fruit knife.

"Pfft~"

Zhao Xin did have concerns before, after all, he had a bright future ahead of him, working for a foreign company right after graduation with an annual salary starting at a million, and he didn't want to bother with this kind of person.

But when he went online, he learned that the world had changed drastically, with both domestic and international sites devastated by natural disasters.

Those in China are considered lucky; at least they have shelters to hide in. Many powerful countries, however, disappeared from the world on this very day.

What is this if not the end of the world?

In the apocalypse, who cares if a few people are killed?

The knife pierced his blood vessel, and only then did the boy realize he had misjudged the person; the other person was not one of those weak and easily bullied classmates from school.

"Aaaaaah, murder!"

"Murder! Murder!"

Someone saw Zhao Xin killing someone with a knife and immediately screamed in fright.

The people around were so frightened that they hurriedly ran away in all directions, their eyes filled with terror.

Some people tried to call the police secretly, but the phone was unreachable, so they couldn't report it.

Zhao Xin slowly took off his clothes, not caring about the bloodstains on them. After putting them back on, he picked up the charger and tablet that they had thrown away, glanced casually at the two children and their parents, and then walked towards the exit with the fruit knife in his hand.

At that moment, everyone kept their distance from him, and no one dared to go up and cause him trouble. He also made it to the exit without any problems.

Ye Ling saw the above scene after following Wen Yanchen and Ye Jinyan out of the space.

Or perhaps you can foresee the scene in your mind beforehand.

However, she was somewhat excited when she saw Zhao Xin.

【Zhao Xin? Oh my god, I actually saw Zhao Xin!】

Wen Yanchen and Ye Jinyan raised their eyebrows slightly. Was a new character appearing?

Ye Ling recalled information about Zhao Xin in her mind: [Zhao Xin hasn't appeared often, but he is indeed a remarkable person.]

He's neither a simp for the female lead, nor cannon fodder, nor just a random passerby; he's the commander of a small base!

Before the apocalypse, he was an elite graduate from a prestigious university, hired by a foreign company with a high salary. Logically, with so many elites in society, it seemed impossible for him to become the leader of a small base.

[But no one else has his lucky streak; his luck is so good that even the male lead is jealous. On his journey to the Central Plains, the people he casually saves are either powerful figures or future superhumans.]

Wen Yanchen and Ye Jinyan exchanged a glance. This guy has a lucky charm constitution and can still live well under the noses of the male and female leads. He is indeed not simple.

Wen Yanchen looked into Ye Ling's bright eyes and thought that she seemed to have never truly integrated into their world since she transmigrated into the book.

She always treated this place like a book, and she would get extremely excited whenever she saw a character she knew.

She felt anger and indignation towards characters who met tragic ends, and she tried her best to change their fates. She gave them everything she had to change their destinies.

They hadn't seen a girl with a childlike heart for many years.

They must protect this pure and innocent heart.
