My Ability Pool is Superior-Chapter 9: Climb Wall

Ke Jianghao looked him over cautiously, as if seeing Lu Bai for the first time.
But he also knew that staying in such an open area was unsafe, so even with a belly full of doubts, he had to hold them back for now.
“Follow me.”
Ke Jianghao took the lead, running diagonally toward the rear of the open ground.
Everyone followed one after another; no one wanted to stay behind to face the zombies.
Of course, to take care of the girls in the group, Ke Jianghao didn’t run too fast.
As a member of the school’s track team, this degree was at most just a warm-up, so while leading the way, he still had the energy to explain the situation to everyone.
“There’s a low wall behind the Experimental Building; climbing over the low wall means leaving the school…
…Don’t worry, last time we skipped class to go out, we padded a few bricks under the wall corner, so it’s easy to climb over.”
Hearing about skipping class, except for Ke Jiangni pursing her lips, even the female teacher was too lazy to correct the sports student’s learning attitude again.
Perhaps because the zombie outbreak happened right at mealtime, there weren’t many people around the Experimental Building.
Or maybe the zombies in this area had all been cleared out by Lu Bai in one go.
In any case, although their group of seven made a big target, they didn’t encounter even a single zombie blocking the way until they reached the vicinity of the Experimental Building.
This allowed the group’s taut nerves to finally relax a bit.
“This way.”
Before Ke Jianghao finished speaking, he strode his long leg into the vegetation on both sides of the Experimental Building.
Through clusters of half-person-high crape myrtle, the trampled soil traces could faintly be seen.
It could only be said that there were no roads in the world originally; when walked on by many people, they became roads.
Hm,
This was truly said by Lu Xun.
Rustle rustle~
The two girls were wearing skirts after all; normally they were glad the school was open-minded and didn’t design the girls’ school uniforms as pants.
But in the current situation, it was very tormenting.
Using their feet to push away the harassing branches and leaves, after just a few steps, their fair calves were scraped with three or four red marks.
Lu Bai, as the one covering retreat in the group, naturally noticed this.
To be honest, he didn’t really want to get involved.
But after hearing the movement behind him, out of safety considerations, he asked, “Need any help?”
Perhaps because he didn’t add a subject when asking, both Ke Jiangni and Wu Ya turned their heads.
Both girls noticed each other’s reactions and exchanged a smile before the atmosphere could turn awkward, saying almost simultaneously.
“I can manage.”
“No need, thanks.”
Lu Bai’s intention wasn’t to curry favor anyway, and he was even less inclined to go against women’s will.
He promptly added, “Then move faster; zombies are catching up from behind.”
Hearing this, the two girls were stunned; mainly because Lu Bai’s tone carried a bit of a smile, making it impossible to sense any tension from it.
However, soon a group of zombies charging from the direction of the Teaching Building filled this gap.
Accompanied by hysterical roars, a large number of zombies madly ran toward the group, their desperate posture instantly awakening everyone’s fear of wildness.
Seeing this scene, the female teacher panicked and shoved the Zheng Xiaoming in front of her, her mind filled with the single thought of not falling behind.
“Hurry! Don’t freeze!”
Ke Jianghao, who had already turned the wall corner, heard the movement and came back, urgently shouting, “Move fast!”
Ke Jiangni stayed relatively calm, dragging the pale-faced Wu Ya, quickly running toward her big brother.
At this point, they no longer cared about the scratches from the branches and leaves underfoot.
Bang! Bang!!
The sound of glass being smashed rang out one after another.
The shouting obviously attracted the zombies in the Experimental Building, and even some impatient zombies fell directly from the sixth floor.
There truly weren’t many zombies in the Experimental Building, but them rushing out at this moment was like adding insult to injury for the group.
Lu Bai walked over and pulled up Zheng Xiaoming from the ground, eyeing the female teacher who had already passed Ke Jianghao and was running even further back without looking back.
Objectively speaking, he didn’t like the female teacher’s behavior.
However,
No matter how hard he tried, his gaze only held a smile full of affinity, at most toning it down a little.
This appearance, in others’ eyes, would only make them think he was holding back laughter.
Zheng Xiaoming, pulled up by him, hurriedly adjusted his glasses frame in a flurry, had no time to give thanks, and turned to run off in a panic.
“Anyway, I probably don’t have cerebellar atrophy or brainstem deficiency or anything…”
Lu Bai murmured.
Through various signs, he had already realized exactly where his problem lay, but unfortunately he didn’t know how to resolve it.
Moreover, at this moment, there was no time for him to think too much.
The zombie that had fallen from upstairs was already struggling to get up.
Lu Bai listened to the movement from the side and rear with his ears, drew his Eight-Sided Han Sword, and without looking back, slashed out with one sword.
The sword blade drew a huge fan-shaped arc in the air, like an antelope hanging its horns, precisely slicing off a zombie’s head.
After easily resolving one zombie, he strode forward, turned the corner of the Experimental Building, and what came into view was the low wall Ke Jianghao had mentioned.
As everyone knew, the more panicked people got, the more likely they were to make mistakes.
With so many people, even a low wall wasn’t that easy to climb over.
However, to Lu Bai’s surprise, the situation under that wall wasn’t as chaotic as he had imagined.
Relying on Tian Wang hiding under the wall corner as a mat, the female teacher and Wu Ya had both successfully climbed over to the other side of the wall.
The rest were just Ke Jiangni who was currently climbing the wall, Zheng Xiaoming who was “queuing,” and Ke Jianghao directing the situation.
“Glasses, once Little Ni climbs over, you’re next; relax.”
Ke Jianghao’s tone was very calm; only from his flushed red complexion could his inner unrest be detected.
“Jiangni, hurry, faster!”
Wu Ya’s shouting voice came from the other side of the wall.
It seemed everything was going smoothly?
Lu Bai sidestepped and glanced at the horde of zombies madly charging toward them, easily reaching a conclusion.
“What a headache…”
He pressed his temple and proactively turned to block the zombies’ advance path, raising his voice a bit: “I can buy you at most half a minute.”
Ke Jianghao suddenly looked up and instantly understood what Lu Bai meant.
Humans were such creatures that in the face of crisis, some would collapse on the spot, while others would become even more resilient.
This sports student was clearly the latter.
“Fatty, once Glasses climbs over, you’re next; don’t worry about us.”
“Oh… oh.”
After quickly arranging the follow-up, Ke Jianghao picked up a brick and came to Lu Bai’s side.
“Actually, you don’t have to force yourself.”
Lu Bai caught sight of the sweat beads emerging on Ke Jianghao’s forehead with his peripheral vision and symbolically advised him.
The sports student squeezed out an ugly smile on his face.
“Can’t leave everything to you, after all; I’ve made some preparations at least.”
“Alright then.” Lu Bai raised an eyebrow.
The zombies lunging head-on also left them no time for further chit-chat, braving the uncomfortable thick bloody smell and stench.
Lu Bai slowed his breathing and moved his foot.
Sword step, followed by thrust!
