Chapter 264

Lucy White had no idea her recent actions had sent the livestream into a frenzy.

The live comments exploded:

[Holy crap! This girl’s got skills!]

[Who called her a pretty face with no talent? Come take your L!]

Of course, some viewers remained skeptical:

[It’s too early to judge. Let’s see how she handles real danger.]

[Wait till the zombies show up. She’ll probably start crying.]

As the group reached the warehouse exit, they ran into several other teams.

Asher York and the others exchanged smug glances—thanks to Lucy’s warning, they hadn’t been caught off guard like the rest.

"Move fast," Lucy said crisply, checking her watch. "Next round’s starting."

She led the team through the corridor with swift, precise movements.

Then, a bone-chilling growl echoed from ahead.

"Wh-what was that?" Finn Wallace stammered.

Lucy shot him an unimpressed look. "Zombies. Obviously."

Jasper King excitedly brandished his kitchen knife. "Finally, the real deal!"

The live comments went wild:

[LMAO Lucy and Xavier look like they’re babysitting three idiots.]

[The contrast is killing me—brain cells vs. brawn cells.]

When the metal door creaked open, a rotting arm shot through the gap.

"Sh*t!" Asher and Finn yelled in unison, instinctively kicking out.

The zombie staggered back, then lunged again—its decaying face and putrid stench horrifyingly realistic.

"Aim for the head!" Lucy reminded them calmly. "Stop flailing around!"

The three scrambled to follow her advice, barely taking down the first zombie.

Then three more charged at them.

By the time they finished, panting and exhausted, they turned to see Lucy and Xavier lounging casually nearby.

"You guys—" Asher whined.

Xavier adjusted his glasses. "I’m the brains of this operation."

Lucy smoothed her hair. "You expect a refined beauty like me to hack up zombies? Please."

The live chat lost it:

[Confirmed: these three are just her minions.]

[Queen Lucy reigns supreme!]

What shocked viewers most was Lucy’s unflinching reaction to the gore.

"Aren’t you… scared?" Jasper finally asked.

Lucy smirked. "Of what? It’s all fake."

She strode past the zombie corpses without a second glance.

The three guys exchanged looks, realizing one thing:

This girl was badass.

Meanwhile, anti-fans who’d been waiting to mock her quietly deleted their prepared insults.

This… wasn’t going how they’d planned.
