Chapter 119: Last Hundred Years...
Chapter 119: Last Hundred Years...
By the time Neil reached the familiar dark place, he had realized what had happened. His face instantly went dark when he learned from the system that his baby had to live alone for the next hundred years. He glared at the system angrily and started typing.
Neil: "Hah, you have successfully provoked me. Tell me, what kind of punishment do you want?"
The higher-ups, who saw this message, realized that things weren't going in the right direction and instantly shivered. How could they have known that such a small thing could end up creating a threatening problem for them? They couldn't help but stare at the screen before their eyes and wipe their cold sweat before typing an answer.
Higher-ups: "Sir, we already gave Mr. Tyler compensation. And he was even happy after that. Please just let us go." They were really crying. First, they had to do a double shift to solve this tremendous issue, and second, they also had to face this person's wrath after every time a mishap happened.
They were clearly innocent and wanted to curse this person, but when they remembered Neil's identity, they could only swallow their anger down their throat and helplessly apologize.
Neil: "What kind of compensation?"
Higher-ups: "We told him that you were his senior."
Neil thought for a moment and was satisfied with this kind of answer. It didn't reveal too much and force Tyler into another round of fluctuation that would make matters worse. And this kind of answer would also make his baby satisfied too.
Neil: "Okay, I wouldn't give you the punishment."
The higher-ups couldn't help but cheer up before they remembered that there was another bad news they would have to give. At this thought, they couldn't help but curse in their hearts. Perhaps after hearing this kind of news, they would die for sure. But they really didn't have any other choice.
So they told the male lead about everything he would have to face in the next world, and his expressions couldn't help but turn dark again. He glared at the system and typed. "Can't you hire more people?"
Higher-ups: "We're already at our limits of hiring people, sir! Please bear with us!"
Neil suddenly let out an icy cold chuckle. "I'll never let you all off after coming back!"
The higher-ups were really afraid now. To save their little lives, they all collectively thought of only one possible solution:
Higher-ups: "We will change the coding this time and make all the characters think that Tyler was the female lead even when he got the body of a villain. So once you become the male lead, you could still date Tyler officially even after forgetting about the latter. This is the only compensation we could offer you for now."
Neil: "Won't it affect world development?"
Higher-ups: "It won't. We will make sure to find a substitute villain."
After reading this sentence, Neil's fury finally calmed down, and he nodded in satisfaction. These higher-ups were eventually becoming intelligent day after day. "If you guys keep up with this, and Tyler's life has no more threat, I would surely provide you with gifts."
The higher-ups couldn't be happier. But there was one thing they didn't tell Neil. Due to the mishap that happened in the previous world, they had lost the connection for a second, and they didn't know which world the transmigration system would select for them. But they weren't worried about this.
Hadn't the system always given them satisfying worlds until now? So they didn't think it should create more issues for them. But what they didn't know was that by solving this world, they would be permanently blacklisted by the male lead after going to the real world.
Meanwhile, the system finally told him about what Tyler did for a hundred years in the previous world.
The male lead saw how Tyler was sleeping next to his dead body with his arms around Neil's waist. Seeing such a scene, Neil couldn't help but feel sour in his nose. After that, he saw Tyler using the zombies' core to keep his dead body alive.
He also saw something else. Tyler would deliberately come to the safe zone and make trouble for Gavin, almost forcing the guy on the verge of death. But his baby would still not kill him. And when the guy would be healed, Tyler would come again and beat the heck out of him.
Neil clearly understood what was happening. Tyler was getting his revenge. Gavin was the person who had found the opportunity to kill the male lead. Initially, Neil had already killed the female lead and had already taken out the core when a destructive power suddenly attacked him.
If it were just one person, the male lead would've dodged. But this was the entire group of people following Gavin. They were clearly long dissatisfied with him and finally found this opportunity to kill the man.
And by the time Neil escaped, he was already on the last breath.
The male lead couldn't help but shake his head. If it weren't for Gavin, he would've lived with Tyler for these hundred years. But what else could he do? He just fixed his eyes on the screen and continued to watch.
After killing many zombies, Tyler would come and lie next to the dead body, snuggling like before.
This kind of scene continued until all the zombies were finally killed after fifty years, and Tyler reluctantly buried Neil's body. The male lead could clearly see that this person didn't want to separate but didn't have much choice.
After that, humanity was able to go to the second level under the leadership of Gavin, finally overcoming all the problems now that all the zombies mysteriously died. But they still hadn't seen Neil. So they all just assumed that he died. And after twenty more years, the existence of zombies became a legend in history. At that time, Tyler just roamed around the world for the next thirty years. No one could recognize him since all the zombie apocalypse survivors had died already of old age.
The moment he crossed hundred years, Tyler finally stopped before Neil's grave, stared at the place indifferently for quite a while before hitting his own brain with a gun.
Neil, who was already in the darkroom, couldn't help but feel so emotional that he wanted to cry. But since this wasn't his original body, tears weren't really 'programmed.' So he could only reveal an expression in the darkness that screamed that he could cry any minute.
"Send me to the next world," He finally said after controlling his emotions.
***
At a green place, Tyler's familiar body awakened, and this time, his power level had risen to 40% already. That means only after 10% more he could get his memories back!
This was the only thing that soothed his heart. When he was inside the previous world, he didn't dare to think about that person for the last fifty years after burying Neil's body. But now, when he thought about how he could get a chance to meet him, even if Neil were to be amnesiac, he didn't care.
At this moment, he just wanted to see that person. After all, that man was his senior in the original world. Even if that person wouldn't remember him, he would still call him senior.
But there was something he wanted to ask the system. Since he could move his hand, he opened the interface and typed.
[Can I get a chance to talk to him here?]
The higher-ups took a little time before replying.
[User360,
This is unfortunately not possible for now, but rest assured. We have been working hard, and if everything goes right in the next world, this feature will be made available to both of you.]
Tyler couldn't help but feel delighted at this, and his shoulders relaxed. Now, all he needed to do was wait.
