Chapter 28

Without serious injuries, the HP will naturally recover at a slow rate after all negative states were removed.

The children were overjoyed.

Everyone understood that Lin Yi had saved their lives several times.

Moreover, not only did he save their lives.

The minimum of their current levels was the peak of the middle grade of Level 1, which was only a short distance away from breaking through to the high grade!

There were also a few youths, including Rael, already at the high grade of Level 1!

If they only relied on their own efforts, they would not be able to reach this level even after half a year.

It was acknowledged that by normal standards, breaking through Level 2 within a year could be considered as a genius.

It was all because of the weapon that Lin Yi had given him.

That was why they had such an exaggerated rate of improvement!

It could be said that with their current strength, even if they left Unther Town and went to a big city, they would still be considered talents.

As a result, Lin Yi’s position in everyone’s heart is now like the sun, an unshakeable existence!

At this moment, everyone looked at Lin Yi with gratitude.

Lin Yi looked at the teary faces of these people and understood that they were going to thank him again. He hurriedly waved his hand and said,

“Stop, stop, stop. Let’s take a look at the village chief’s current situation.”

Hearing this, they were just aware of that.

They hurriedly ran to the old village chief Jeff and knelt beside the village chief.

At this moment, Jeff was so weak that he could barely keep his eyes open.

Rael’s hands trembled. This was all a medical kit could do.

Jeff, the old village chief, was seriously injured.

It was already a miracle that he was still alive!

Even Lin Yi could not save him.

The old village chief, Jeff, moved his eyes with difficulty. The reason why he could persist until now was because he had been watching Lin Yi.

“Lin Yi. You’re really… really the pride of our village.”

“Rael…told me… everything… You are… really…. outstanding.”

“Thank you… for avenging the death… of our village…”

Jeff said to Lin Yi with difficulty and incoherently.

Lin Yi listened quietly and nodded vigorously.

“Village chief, this is what I should do.”

The other children looked sadly at the dying village chief.

They recalled all the details of the past that the village chief took care of them.

Jeff had been the chief of Unther Village for almost his entire life.

He had no wife, no children, no family.

All his energy and care were dedicated to the village and the villagers.

It could be said that he treated every child very well.

Especially Lin Yi, as an orphan, without the village chief’s help, the original owner of this body would have died of cold and starvation one winter.

And now, this old man who treated them the best.

He was going to die in front of them.

Everyone felt heart-wrenching pain.

“Lin Yi. I have something…for you.”

With trembling hands, Jeff took out a letter from his pocket with all his strength.

His entire body was stained with blood, but this letter was as clean as new.

This was also something he had risked his life to protect before he died.

Jeff handed the letter to Lin Yi.

“I… announce that you, Lin Yi,… are the most outstanding child in the village…”

“You gain admission to St. Caesar Academy.”

Jeff’s voice became weaker and weaker.

Finally, with the last word, old Jeff’s HP was reduced to zero.

His head drooped weakly and his eyes were closed forever.

At the last moment of his death, he felt gratified.

At this moment, the other children were already crying.

Lin Yi took the envelope and put it away. He had mixed feelings in his heart.

In the end, he was still given the right to enter St. Caesar Academy.

He didn’t know if he should be happy or sad.

Although he tried his best to resist fate, fate still fell on his head in the end.

“Fighting against those damned zombies and evil beasts is not only for the sake of this empire, right? It’s for myself.”

Lin Yi muttered in his heart.

Originally, he had no reason to fight, nor did he have any understanding of war.

But now, he did.

At the same time, he had something to carry.

The evil beasts and zombies owed him a debt of blood.

At the very least, Lin Yi had to figure out why the villagers died.

Why would a large number of zombies and evil beasts suddenly appear at the border that should not have been breached?

He had to figure it out.

Beside them, the group of children cried for a while before they gradually calmed down.

After everyone had sorted out their emotions, they began to discuss how to bury the bodies of the old village chief Jeff and the other villagers.

Then, they started discussing the way out.

” Gill, Dent, and Lalia. What are you going to do in the future? ”

Lin Yi looked at the warrior, archer, and female mage and asked calmly.

The three of them immediately replied,

“Lin Yi, we’ve all thought it through. We all will go to the academy in the Southern Region to continue our studies and improve the strength of our roles.”

With their current strength.

If they went to the academy to register, they would definitely be welcomed.

Lin Yi nodded. With his weapon, they would have absolutely great success later in life.

And they could also return experience points to him.

He didn’t have to worry about his future or his safety.

“Rael, what about you?”

Lin Yi looked at the proud brown-haired youth beside him.

Rael replied honestly.

“Lin Yi, I’ve thought it through too. I’ll join the military academy and directly enter the border army in the future. I want to kill all the zombies and evil beasts in the world and avenge the villagers.”

Lin Yi nodded.

“It seems that everything has been arranged.”

Everyone looked at Lin Yi and asked,

“What about you, Lin Yi?”

Lin Yi lowered his head and took out the badge that Dorman had given him before he died.

A sharp sword was carved on it.

Lin Yi formally wore it on his chest.

“I don’t know. Follow my heart and do whatever I want.”

Lin Yi replied expressionlessly.

Then, he stood up and looked at the destroyed village with melancholy.

“Let our hometown rest in peace.”

…

In the following time, the children dealt with the funeral affairs of the village.

At night, they ate together and slept together, spending the whole night together.

The next day, they went their separate ways.

Early in the morning, Lin Yi sat in the carriage to the town.

He had things to do.

First, he had to sort out the spoils of war from this battle.

There was just too much booty this time!

He had to digest it properly.

Then, he would buy some things that he needed.

After that, he would investigate the reason for the appearance of this zombie horde and get some information.

In addition, there was another very important matter.

That was after Lin Yi reached Level 3, he successfully awakened a new talent.

It was called:
