Being an otaku in the world of American comics

Shua la la…

As Liang Yue made his way to the highway overpass from his lodging, a drizzle began to fall from the sky.

The rain wasn't heavy at first, but it suddenly intensified within moments.

In an instant, the world seemed to be veiled by a curtain of rain.

Turbulent splashes of water danced in all directions, creating a mist above the ground, even slightly obstructing visibility.

It was in this environment that Liang Yue, alone, arrived on the congested bridge, braving the rain, a sword and shield in hand, advancing slowly and steadily.

At this time, the zombies mixed in among the cluttered cars appeared somewhat agitated.

The rain relentlessly pounded the ground, creating a cacophony that seemed to disorient the zombies, who relied on sound for navigation, causing them to lose their targets and direction.

Like a swarm of headless flies, they flailed their arms, bumping into each other, occasionally even harming their fellow undead, quickly descending into a chaotic mess of pushing and scratching.

"Shua~!"

Naturally, Liang Yue wouldn't stand on ceremony with these creatures; with a mighty swing of his iron sword, he decapitated two zombies that were tightly embracing each other!

Two grayish, grotesque heads tumbled to the ground.

However, this slight disturbance was like snowflakes in the night amidst the heavy downpour, failing to attract any attention from the surrounding zombies, who continued to wander aimlessly.

Seeing this, Liang Yue felt neither joy nor sorrow, and swung his iron sword again.

This would allow for a more flexible control over one's own strength.

Liang Yue's goal at this moment was clear: within this limited time, he wasn't seeking to kill a large number of zombies, but simply to gain a practical grasp of the measure of swordsmanship!

Even if this measure was just a vague concept, it would be a valuable experience for him~

And so, with this purpose in mind, Liang Yue began his training in the increasingly violent rain!

Time slipped by, second by second, as rain poured down on his head, flowing down his lithe body in streams.

His clothes were already completely soaked, but Liang Yue paid no attention to it, continuing to slash at the zombies in front of him with his inner fervor.

Each swing of the iron sword carried his testing and contemplation of his own strength.

It was also a training exercise in controlling the angle of attacks and swings, as well as the coordination of his body.

"Pa lang~" A soft sound.

After hundreds of swings and decapitations, the iron sword in Liang Yue's hand finally gave way to his abuse, shattering into a pile of fragments.

But Liang Yue ignored it, and with a flick of his sleeve, a brand-new iron sword immediately appeared in his hand, and he continued to swing it at the targets in front of him without pause.

And so, unknowingly, he continued to advance along the highway overpass.

Chop, slash, stab, pick, flick, strike…

Sometimes standing still to swing, sometimes leaping up to attack, sometimes standing firmly on the ground, sometimes standing on the jumbled private cars.

During this time, Liang Yue constantly tried various techniques, and constantly consolidated his experience in close-quarters swordplay.

Finally, just as he broke his third iron sword and cleared over a thousand meters of the highway ahead, he finally heard the system notification sound that was like heavenly music to his ears.

"Ding~! Congratulations to the host for entering the basics of swordsmanship and independently comprehending the corresponding skill 'Basic Swordsmanship'."

"Ooh yeah~~~ Job done!"

Raising the iron sword in his hand high, Liang Yue shouted loudly in the rain.

The joy in his heart at this moment seemed to pierce through the rain, and the originally mindless zombies in front of him seemed to be inspired, surging towards him.

Seeing this, Liang Yue immediately curled the corners of his mouth into an excited smile, and with a flick of his sleeve, a semi-automatic rifle was immediately taken out of his storage space.

Grabbing the car door next to him, he easily jumped onto the hood of a nearby truck.

"Ka ka~"

"Bang!" "Bang!" "Bang!" "Bang!" "Bang!"…

Having completed his expected goal, Liang Yue naturally no longer had to worry about anything, and repeatedly pulled the trigger in his hand, and a barrage of bullets immediately spread out.

He recklessly poured the firepower in his hand towards the zombies in front of him~

The surging army of the undead was immediately mowed down one by one like wheat.

For a time, the wailing sounds and the gunshots quickly blended with the surrounding rain.

Although the zombie army was numerous, they were never able to get close, and there were also vehicles blocking the road, so the surging momentum was quickly suppressed by him.

Afterwards, Liang Yue began to slowly advance forward, and as time passed, the zombies on the highway overpass were cleared at a speed visible to the naked eye.

In addition, those scattered vehicles blocking the bridge surface also became his cleanup targets.

With an iron pickaxe in his hand, he swung it repeatedly, and the vehicles blocking the road in front of him were immediately reduced to neat iron blocks.

On average, an ordinary private car could be chiseled into two to three solid iron blocks.

This efficiency is much higher than mining iron ore in the MC world!

At about two o'clock in the afternoon, the entire highway overpass had been cleared by Liang Yue, and the congested vehicles had been turned into iron blocks and stored in his storage space.

Only strange-shaped corpses were left on the spot.

At this point, the last transportation hub leading to the sea airport was finally cleared by Liang Yue.

In contrast, in the past two days, the Takagi family's direction did not seem to have any major movements.

It seems that Saya Takagi's persuasion and plans for the future have not gained the trust of her parents, at least they should not have fully admitted the correctness of the transfer plan.

However, Liang Yue was not worried about whether the other party would implement this transfer plan, because the situation in the island country next was no longer under the control of the other party!
