BXBX NOVEL Chapter 39
Chapter 39
"Please don\'t kill us…" Satella\'s hand trembled as she was pointed on her head by the Phalanx X-02 in Zhang Qin Feng\'s hand. Her life was put on the line right now between life and death.
"Are you trying to rob me?" Zhang Qin Feng asked.
"No - No… We\'re not robbing you… We found you coming into the building, and we thought you might have some spare rations we can buy from you. We have no bad intention, we promise!" Satella quickly mediates the misunderstanding.
"It - It\'s just we\'re not sure about your background, so we don\'t dare to reveal ourselves too early. We have our worries too… Please have mercy…" Satella continued.
[Toot… There\'s a hint of lies in her words… But over 75% of what she said made sense. In this post-apocalypse world, being cautious towards people you see outside of the survival camp is extremely important]
"Please let us leave… I\'m begging you… My friend has been bitten by a zombie. I must return to the survivor camp to purchase a Decrystallizing Serum to cure her. Please, good sir, please let us leave…" Satella begs and begged for Qin Lan to let them go.
[The system is capable of producing a vial of the serum in five minutes. Suggesting that the user negotiates with this survivor to see how much she\'s willing to pay]
Stein\'s advice came at the correct time when Zhang Qin Feng needed it.
"How much you\'re willing to pay for the serum?" Zhang Qin Feng asked as he took a few steps backward until he\'s leaning at the wall behind him. The pistol was still pointing at Satella nevertheless as a precaution.
"We only have fifteen Duranium Shards with us. We hope you\'re willing to part with the serum with this price," she said.
[Toot… Hints of lies were detected from her still facial expression. She might or might not have so many Duranium Shards with her]
"Fifteen… Is not a very good price, don\'t you think?" Zhang Qin Feng continued to bargain. While Satella might or might not have that many shards with her, Zhang Qin Feng is no different as he doesn\'t even have the serum in his hand right now.
Feeling like she had been caught lying, Satella stays quiet. She indeed has more than fifteen Duranium Shards with her. A conflicting question now came to her mind.
Was it worth saving her friend by paying more than fifteen shards? Although she is her companion, their relationship is yet to reach the state where one cannot live without another. Furthermore, she was the reason why they\'re stranded here in the first place.
"Satella, please! Save me! Great sir, we have twenty-two shards. That\'s all we have, so please save me by sparing that forum. Do you want me to serve you? I can do that if you wish… The people from the survival camp used to say that my private part was the tightest amongst everyone else." the words coming out from her companion\'s mouth disgust her for a moment.
"You… You…" Satella was speechless. To think that this companion of hers would actually betray her and exposed what they have just to save herself.
"Oh! Twenty-Two shards. This is a little more interesting. What do you say, young lady?" Zhang Qin Feng continued. Although he\'s happy with the price, he has to play hard to get now because there are still three minutes to wait until the serum is ready.
"Twenty-Two shards. Take it." Satella tossed a purse with the shards inside disappointedly and kept telling herself that this will be the last cooperation between the two girls. They\'ll part and followed their own way once they returned to the survival camp.
\'Damn… There are two minutes left. We can\'t go with the deal now!\' Zhang Qin Feng is wrecking his brain over what he should do. Remembered that the infected girl mentioned some special services she could add into the bargain, Zhang Qin Feng decided that it\'s now or never.
"Since you tried to lie to me just now, shouldn\'t we add the price a little more? What do you think?" Zhang Qin Feng studies Satella\'s body carefully. It seems that she\'s quite a fierce competitor of Wang Yufei when it comes to the chest department.
"The two of you can get along if you\'re hungry for it. I\'m out of here!" Satella angrily replies to Zhang Qin Feng\'s words before she turned and left.
"Sa - Satella…" but it seems her companion was no longer capable of resisting her anymore. Two-Thirds of her body had hardened as some tiny crystals resemble the Duranium Shard are growing here and there around her body.
"What? How can this be? It\'s barely ten minutes from the time she got bitten!" Satella was surprised to see that her friend was about to finish turning into a living corpse. Thinking about her fate if she was to piggyback her all the way back to the survival camp made her curious about what would\'ve happened.
"Dagger! Dagger!" Satella quickly reached for a weapon, but she was too late. Her companion was already coming for her throat as she rummages her pocket for a tool to protect herself.
**Bip! Bip! Bip!**
Zhang Qin Feng fired three shots at the zombie. He successfully killed the zombie before it could bite. Unfortunately, Satella still ended up getting bitten on her wrist when she tried to push the zombie away.
"Hahaha… To think that I\'ll get infected eventually… I guess that\'s my fate…" Satella sat on the staircase and decided to wait for her death.
"What are you doing?" Zhang Qin Feng asked her. The Decrystallizing Serum is finally completed. But since he killed her friend, shouldn\'t she be the one asking for the serum? Why would she choose to sit there and waiting to transform into one of the zombies?
"I know that you don\'t have the serum in hand. You don\'t need to act anymore. I hope you can give me a swift death once I turned into one of those creatures. And if you go to the grocery shop across the road, look for a semi-automatic Centurion Rifle I\'ve hidden behind one of the freezers."
"You\'ll like it if you have the ammunition for the gun," she said.
"Are you sure that I don\'t have the serum in my hand?" Zhang Qin Feng chuckled. Sitting down beside her, he had a closer look over her face and body.
"You better quit that idea. Even if I haven\'t turned, the Seed Crystal Virus is still highly contagious." Satella said.
"Oh? So you mean if you\'re no longer infected, I can do whatever I like with you? That sounds so good. I\'m sure I\'ll be enjoying it." said Zhang Qin Feng. His gaze landed on the two perky mountains of hers and remained there for a while.
"Looks like you\'re no different from the others. You\'re just as perverted, tricky, and troublemaker as they do," she added.
"Take this. We\'re lucky there are so many rooms here. We can simply use one of them as we like." Zhang Qin Feng stuck the vial of serum between her cleavage and returned to what he was doing. As for the 22 Duranium Shards, of course, he\'s qualified to keep it.
"This… You actually have the serum?" Satella was shocked. But she was unsure if its because she no longer has to turn into a zombie just like her companion. It might also be due to her promised to let this man before him ravage her body.
