"Sister Ye? What's wrong? What are you standing there for? Hurry up and get the next one."

Ye Qinglan came to her senses and looked into Lu Zhixing's clear, calm eyes. Her opinion of him was completely rewritten at that moment.

She even lamented that he had awakened as a necromancer, and that his talent was not worthy of his family background.

"It's alright, young master."

"I just didn't expect that your control over your summoned creatures had reached this level. It seems I was overthinking it; with your level of control, the Shadow Wolf really poses no threat."

The little zombie rolled its eyes.

[Little Zombie: It's just around the corner, this woman acts like she's never seen anything like it. Is it really that big of a deal?]

[Little Zombie: Humans, you're making a big fuss over nothing.]

Ye Qinglan composed herself.

"Young Master, since you have such precise control over your summoned creatures, I suggest we change our strategy."

Lu Zhixing raised an eyebrow.

"If accuracy isn't an issue, high-agility but fragile monsters are perfect. My new plan is for me to lure the monsters, bring them to low health, throw them over, and you can finish them off. That's the most efficient way."

When Ye Qinglan presented this plan, she was actually a little apprehensive.

Making a newbie who has only been awakened for a day stand still and wait to be thrown at by a low-health monster sounds like a joke.

But she had just witnessed the little zombie's U-turn, sudden stop, and trajectory correction; every movement told her:

This is no joke; this is a dimensional reduction attack.

Lu Zhixing was delighted.

"Okay, Sister Ye, that's settled!"

It's so great that I don't even have to move my legs and can just wait here.

He thought he was going to have a wilderness survival training exercise when he went out today, but it turned out to be a targeted harvest.

"Okay, young master, please be careful."

Before Ye Qinglan could finish speaking, her figure had already transformed into a black streak of light and rushed into the depths of the dense forest.

Lu Zhixing watched the black figure disappear into the mist, then stretched and opened the game.

[Little Zombie: ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ]

[Little Zombie: Where's the monster? Where's the monster?! I need to fight monsters! I need to evolve!]

"What's the rush? Sister Ye went to help us lure the monsters, so you should rest for a while. You'll be exhausted later."

[Little Zombie: I don't need rest, I want to fight! I want to level up! I want to become the Necromancer Saint King!]

After a while.

A rapid rustling sound came from the bushes.

"Young master, catch it!"

Before the words were finished, a dark shadow flew out from the depths of the dense forest and headed towards the tree.

Lu Zhixing kept his head down, staring at his phone screen.

[Little Zombie: Die!]

boom!

The little zombie leaped into the air and landed a precise punch on the head of the Shadow Wolf in mid-air.

[Defeat the Shadow Wolf (Lv.3) to gain 20 experience points!]

Ye Qinglan emerged from behind the bushes and saw the corpse of the Shadow Wolf slide down the tree trunk.

"Great aim!"

She looked down at the tree, wanting to see what expression the young master would give in response to the praise—

Then he froze.

Lu Zhixing was holding his phone in both hands.

"Support, don't solo the minion wave, I'm not level 4 yet."

Ye Qinglan: "..."

The young master is playing a game.

He didn't even lift his head, his eyes never left the screen, and he probably didn't even look in the direction the wolf was flying from.

But he still managed to hit it.

Ye Qinglan took a deep breath and swallowed back the shock that had risen to her throat.

Ye Qinglan gritted her teeth and leaped into the depths of the dense forest once more.

This time she didn't rush back.

She wandered through the woods for nearly two minutes, trying to find a more challenging angle to verify a guess: whether the young master had guessed correctly or truly didn't need to use his eyes.

The bushes exploded again.

"Young Master, you're here!"

This time, the Shadow Wolf didn't fly in from directly in front.

Ye Qinglan tossed the wounded Shadow Wolf high into the air, sending it flying in an almost vertical parabola.

This means that Lu Zhixing needs to have his summoned creatures kill the enemy from above.

Lu Zhixing kept staring at the screen.

"Holy crap, someone's raiding our base! Mark, defend it! Han Xin's got his signature weapon!"

The little zombie looked at its target high in the sky and smiled disdainfully.

[Little Zombie: Die!]

The little zombie collided precisely with the falling shadow wolf in mid-air.

boom!

[Defeat the Shadow Wolf (Lv.3) to gain 20 experience points!]

Ye Qinglan stood on the trunk of a large tree, looking down at the boy who was still playing games.

"How could this possibly work?!" she blurted out.

Ye Qinglan gritted her teeth, leaped down from the tree trunk, and darted back into the forest.

When she returned, she was holding a highly venomous spider—Lv.4.

She chose an extremely tricky angle, throwing the spider from behind Lu Zhixing's blind spot towards the back of his head.

"Young master, watch out behind you!"

Whoosh!

A small zombie flew out from beside Lu Zhixing.

boom!

A muffled thud came from behind the tree.

[Defeat the Venomous Spider (Lv.4) to gain +25 experience points!]

[Little Zombie: Oh my god! It's filthy. Don't throw me anything juicy like that next time, I am the noble Heavenly Zombie King.]

Ye Qinglan stood there, looking at the boy who was engrossed in the game, and felt a chill run down her spine.

The next half hour.

The red figure moved through the forest like a tireless black streak.

She dragged one half-dead monster after another out of the dense forest and threw them toward the big tree from all sorts of tricky angles.

Directly in front, to the left, to the right, above your head, behind you.

No matter from which angle she throws, no matter how she changes the speed and trajectory of her throw, the little zombie always arrives first.

It traces various trajectories in the air that defy the laws of physics: straight lines, arcs, broken lines, and sharp turns, hitting the target precisely every time.

From beginning to end, not a single monster landed.

All the monsters were intercepted, killed, and torn to pieces in mid-air.

Lu Zhixing, however, never raised his head from beginning to end.

Ye Qinglan leaned against a tree trunk, panting heavily.

While it's not too difficult for high-level professionals to lure monsters, the high-intensity traversal, controlling the force of their attacks, and throwing precisely for half an hour is more energy-consuming than direct combat.

She looked at the lazy figure under the tree in the distance, and her heart was filled with turmoil.

Is this... a true genius?

Multitasking? No, it's no longer just simple multitasking.

The young master didn't even use "single-mindedness"; his attention was on the game, on pushing towers, and on the enemy jungler.

His control over the little zombie no longer required any attention; it was an instinct ingrained in his bones, as natural as breathing.

Ye Qinglan had seen many geniuses in the city defense army's special forces.

Some people are born with a reaction speed three times faster than others.

Some people have a sensory range twice that of the average person.

But she had never seen anything like it before.

Ye Qinglan wiped the sweat from her forehead with her sleeve.

Commander Lu always said that the young master was lazy, didn't like to move, and would rather lie down than sit.

Now she understands, it's not laziness, it's that there's no need to move.

Killing these Lv.3 and Lv.4 monsters was not even as difficult for him as it was in a mobile game.

Like father, like son.

No, it should be said that the student surpasses the teacher.

Congratulations! Your level has increased to Lv.5!

Lu Zhixing's fingers paused for a moment.

Lv.5? He only awakened as an F-rank necromancer yesterday, and he's already Lv.5 today?

Your summoned creature, "Little Zombie," is still not satisfied after an afternoon of slaughter.

[Skill "Breaking Through Ten Thousand Laws" proficiency greatly increased. Current level: Lv.5.]

[Little Zombie: This is nothing.]

He stretched comfortably and stood up to move his neck.

"I won five games in a row and even leveled up. Things are getting better and better."

Ye Qinglan emerged from the depths of the forest.

"Young master, congratulations. Reaching Lv.5 on the second day is quite fast for a new recruit in the city defense force."

There was no flattery in her words.

She had read many of the city defense army's training records, and those who could reach Lv.5 on the second day after awakening were all talent holders of A-level or higher.

Lu Zhixing patted the dust off his buttocks.

"It's mainly because you, Sister Ye, were so good at drawing attention."

Ye Qinglan's lips twitched, but she didn't respond to the question.

She looked away and changed the subject.

"The commander sent a message saying he has prepared a 'Wilderness Dungeon Scroll' for you. The monsters in the dungeon give significantly more experience than those in the wild. He suggests we go back to get the scroll and have dinner while we're at it."

[Little Zombie: Hurry! Stir-fry the Storm Dragon! Dinner's ready! Dinner's ready! Dinner's ready!]

[Little Zombie: I'm hungry! I want to eat! I don't want to fight monsters anymore! I want to eat!]

[Little Zombie: Drooling.jpg x10]

The lights of the Lu family villa lit up one by one in the night. From a distance, the entire mansion looked like a huge, bright pearl.

On either side of the intricately carved wrought iron gate, wall lamps illuminate the two characters "Lu Mansion" on the gate plaque with exquisite detail.

A black SUV slowly drove into the gate.

Ye Qinglan got out of the driver's seat, closed the car door, and quickly scanned every corner of the garden.

This was her professional instinct; even in the Lu family's stronghold, her body remained taut, ready to fight at any moment.

Lu Zhixing glanced at her: "Sister Ye, we're home."

"Um."

"There is a security system at home."

"Um."

"And my dad."

"Um."

Lu Zhixing gave up.

Some occupational diseases are incurable.

The mansion's main gate opened from the inside, and warm yellow light poured out.

Two rows of maids stood neatly along both sides of the porch, all wearing uniform dark gray uniforms and white aprons tied meticulously.

"Welcome home, young master."

Lu Zhixing didn't stop walking and waved to them: "You've worked hard, go and rest."

The head maid bowed slightly, watching the young master's figure disappear around the corner of the entrance hall, and then gestured for the others to disperse.

The moment the motion-sensor light in the entryway turned on, Shen Jing's voice drifted over from the direction of the dining room.

"They're back! They're back!"

The footsteps approached from afar, quick and crisp.

She looked Lu Zhixing up and down three times, from head to toe.

"Are you alright? Are you hurt? You've lost weight! You've only been out for a day and you've already lost weight!"

Lu Zhixing said helplessly, "Mom, I was only gone for a few hours, and it was quite relaxing. Sister Ye is here, what could possibly happen?"

Shen Jing finally breathed a sigh of relief: "It's good that you're safe, it's good that you're safe. Come on, are you starving? Mom specially instructed the kitchen to prepare a table full of delicious dishes, all made according to your request this morning, with maximum wind element!"

Lu Zhixing's eyes lit up: "Great, I'm starving."

He obediently followed his mother towards the restaurant. Ye Hongyu followed silently behind, always keeping a distance of three steps.

The table was covered with plates, so much so that you could hardly see the color of the table from one end to the other.
