Chapter 107 Plants vs. Zombies

Chapter 103 Plants vs. Zombies

Because moving his work location to the store disturbed Yuan Qing's sleep, Bai Chen has received countless eye-rolls from Yuan Qing in the past few days.

However, since the other party's lucky aura was indeed very strong, he had long been used to the other party's eye rolls—and also used to Qing Shiyi, who floated around him like a ghost.

What Kōreimon said was indeed true; some things become second nature through habit.

Furthermore, the girl's clothes were exactly the same as those of her distant relative, and the teacup she was holding made her identity almost obvious—wait, if that's the case, wouldn't the other party have already recognized me?

As if he had thought of something, Bai Chen's expression became subtle.

"Alright, can't even I shut you up while I'm eating some melon?"

Seeing that Su Qun was still chattering beside him, Bai Chen rolled his eyes and stood up.

"Get ready, let's go in."

"No problem, totally fine!! So what if you got rejected after confessing your feelings? It's not a big deal!!!"

After finishing the melon in a few bites, Su Qun gave a thumbs-up with a righteous expression.

"For my brothers, I would brave mountains of knives and seas of fire, risk my life for them, without hesitation!!!"

Bai Chen: "——————"

Feeling the curious and inquisitive gazes from those around him, he suddenly had a strong urge to tap his mouth shut completely.

"Do you need our help?"

His eyes flickered slightly, and Qin Feng took a step forward and asked the question.

"Not for now. I'll let you know if I need it."

With a wave of his hand, Bai Chen squinted and stepped onto the lawn.

As for Su Qun, after glancing at the dozen or so watermelons left on the side, he hesitated for a moment before decisively picking up the watermelons, basin and all, and then trotting after Bai Chen.

Qin Feng:

'

"What, is this your reason for not returning to reality?"

Bai Chen glanced at the girl holding the teacup in front of him and asked her directly.

As for confirming the other party's true identity—there's no need to ask unnecessary questions about things that have already been determined.

"Sorry, I don't think we know each other very well."

With a cold expression, Ye Qingheng subtly hid the teacup in her sleeve and took a step back.

----------

Instead of trying to get on my good side, you'd be better off educating me about science—

Ye Qingheng was taken aback when the person in front of him suddenly pulled out glasses from their pocket and handed them to him.

"Try wearing it; this is the latest product developed by Kōreimon."

Bai Chen's expression was concise and to the point.

After a moment's hesitation, Ye Qingheng reached out and picked up the glasses, then put them on.

When she looked up at the person in front of her while wearing glasses, her face immediately darkened.

From the perspective of the glasses, both of the people in front of them had a bright green symbol above their heads.

【Dust White Lv12】

[A handsome young man of unparalleled elegance and refined manners, Lv5]

"What, are you still pretending not to know me?"

With his arms crossed, Bai Chen sneered.

Ye Qingheng: "——————"

"To be honest, your disguise is terrible. You don't even need glasses. I recognized you at first glance. I risked coming in here to help you, and you still—"

"—"

"What, are you proud that you recognized one of your employees as someone you once confessed to but was rejected?"

Looking up and staring directly into his eyes, Ye Qingheng spoke softly.

"————That's true."

After thinking for a moment, Bai Chen nodded and then solemnly extended his hand to the other party.

"Give me back my glasses. They were a sample, very valuable. Just pretend I never gave you glasses before."

"—Tell me about the general situation here."

Ye Qingheng's eye seemed to twitch slightly, but he turned his head away expressionlessly.

"I should have been having tea and waiting for lunch inside the shop, how did I suddenly get dragged here————"

"Come on, let's eat some melon seeds!!"

Before she could finish her sentence, a slice of watermelon was shoved in front of her. Seemingly sensing the awkward atmosphere between the two, Su Qun, who had arrived late, quickly tried to smooth things over.

"Even though you rejected him back then, Old Bai has never forgotten you, and he even tried to drown his sorrows in alcohol—mmm."

"Let's go inside and talk in detail."

With a blank expression, Bai Chen stuffed the entire watermelon into the guy's mouth, then turned to look at Ye Qingheng.

"We still have some time before the first wave of the offensive officially begins."

"----good."

For some reason, her mood improved a lot. She glanced at Su Qun, who was coughing desperately, and a slight smile appeared on her lips. Ye Qingheng nodded.

"【Crazy Farmer】—A Tower Defense Game?"

Inside the living room, Ye Qingheng turned to look at the lawn outside and asked a question.

"Almost. There are five main challenges: daytime, nighttime, swimming pool, fog, and rooftop. Our goal is to defend against zombies entering the house by planting plants."

Bai Chen shrugged as he took a can of cola from the refrigerator, acting as if he were one of the guests.

"It is worth noting that once a zombie enters the house, even if it is just an ordinary zombie, it can be easily killed. No matter what defensive measures you have, the people inside the house will have their brains eaten by the zombie and die."

"Mechanical killing?"

"Yes, we can't prevent it. All we can do is try our best to keep the zombies out of the house."

Bai Chen casually tossed a can of cola to the other person and then turned around and sat down on the sofa.

"Grow plants to defend against zombies, it's that simple."

———————————————————————————————————————————————— ————

"What about the plants?"

Taking the can of cola, Ye Qingheng calmly asked a question.

"Here, plants are grown from seeds, but seeds need sunlight to grow. Without enough sunlight, even if the seeds are planted, the plants will not grow."

As he spoke, Bai Chen casually tossed a small cloth bag over.

"I've counted them. There are 36 seeds in total. We can only plant 36 plants. In other words, we need to use these 36 plants to get through the first major challenge during the day."

"What about the different types of plants? These seeds all look exactly the same, how can we tell which plant is which?"

After opening the small cloth bag and taking a look, Ye Qingheng couldn't help but frown.

"Or are we only allowed to use one type of plant in this first major challenge?"

"There's no distinction. This disaster has escalated, and we can only rely on luck. However, the relevant department did provide me with a sample of the composition of these three wild seeds."

Bai Chen pulled the tab, took a sip of his iced cola, and looked out at the lawn.

"36 seeds, including 5 sunflowers, 10 pea shooters, 5 wall-nuts, 5 chomps, 5 cherry bombs, 5 potato mines, and 1 ice shooter."

"This is all our possessions."
