Hearing Wang Kai's words, Lin Yi suddenly felt a wave of dizziness wash over him. Although he didn't like the people attending the banquet, their influence on this planet was irreplaceable. If these individuals had indeed been infected with the Zombie Virus, even if they managed to defeat the Zombies later, human society would struggle to recover for a long time.
"You've gone too far!" Lin Yi's eyes turned Scarlet. At that moment, he hadn't given up on tapping into the energy within him, but he couldn't shake off the feeling of blockage inside his body, unsure of what kind of poison had been secretly injected into him.
Wang Kai feigned innocence as he replied, "Don't blame me; this new type of virus wasn't developed by me."
"What... do you mean?" Lin Yi frowned slightly, sensing an ominous premonition. Given the elaborate setup by his adversaries, it was clear that those around him could also pose a threat. However, after glancing around, Lin Yi believed that apart from himself—who had a legitimate background in biology and knowledge about viruses—the others were completely unrelated to such matters.
"Lin Team Leader..."
"Boss Lin..."
Just as Lin Yi's mind raced with thoughts, two familiar yet somewhat unfamiliar voices echoed in the room. Soon after, a plump figure and a slender one appeared before everyone.
"Nock!" Lin Yi swallowed hard, his voice trembling as he called out, "Marin!"
"It's been a while, my dear Boss Lin!" Marin said with a broad smile, looking at Lin Yi as if they were old friends reuniting. Yet at that moment, Lin Yi's mind was filled with disbelief. The colleagues he once worked with were actually the culprits behind all this.
"Lin Yi, you're quite impressive, but unfortunately, you chose to oppose the divine race. So I have no choice but to take action!" Nock took a few steps toward Lin Yi, seemingly wanting him to hear his voice more clearly.
"This... how is this possible!" Nock's words made everything clear; at this point, even if Lin Yi didn't want to believe it, he had no choice but to accept it.
"There's nothing impossible about it. The Zombie Virus you mentioned has been in development for quite some time—since I first entered the laboratory. Initially, this virus was designed to be lethal. It was only after modifications that it achieved its current miraculous effects! The project team you were responsible for was part of the entire research effort. In a way, you are also considered part of our divine race!"
"Of course, this virus was initially successfully developed by Washington. The results were astonishing at that time. However, achieving optimal modification required continuous exploration; that's why the Zombie Virus remained controlled within certain limits for so long."
Later on, it was discovered that humans consuming this virus could absorb other humans or even their own kind to enhance their strength! As for what happened afterward—you already know. This miraculous substance spread globally; our divine race's power became exponentially stronger!"
As Nock spoke, he excitedly waved his fists in the air. His fervent expression made Lin Yi sigh inwardly.
"The virus inside Boss Lin was developed by me. I believe you know that when that person named Ying Sa took some of your flesh for testing and discarded it—that was how I obtained it. Later on, based on your cellular condition, I specifically developed this invisible drug designed to obstruct blood flow in your vessels!" Marin said proudly, relishing the thrill of bringing someone who stood at the pinnacle down.
At that moment, apart from cursing himself for being foolish, Lin Yi didn't know what else to think. When Nock and Marin first appeared in Australia during the initial purge of traitors and were captured—it seemed they had indeed been wrongfully accused! Who would have thought these two would eventually escape and lead him into such dire straits?
It could be said that these two individuals standing before him were undoubtedly the masterminds behind his current predicament! Yet he had traveled alongside them for so long—he had truly danced with wolves!
"Let them go, and do whatever you want with me!"
At this moment, every time Lin Yi tried to catch his breath, it felt as if all his blood vessels were about to burst. He knew that struggling in this situation would only infuriate Wang Kai and the others even more. Nevertheless, Lin Yi felt he still had some value, enough to negotiate.
"Koala Uncle, you're definitely done for, but your Sister Li and all the other big brothers and sisters around you won't escape death either! My second brother is dead, and you all need to accompany him in death!"
Wang Zijun waved her hand, her expression a mix of delicate charm and cruelty. Each of her words pierced the hearts of those present like a cold blade.
"Your second brother? Who is that?" Lin Yi had never figured out the family situation of this group since he met them; who could this suddenly mentioned second brother be?
"It's Wang Xing!" At that moment, Li Qiweng beside him suddenly widened her eyes in shock, her face turning pale.
"Yes, Sister Li, my second brother liked you so much that you almost became my second sister-in-law. But you always hurt my brother's heart. I think I should carve a few more cuts on your face; I can just imagine how happy my brother will be then!"
"Old Seven, hurry up with your revenge; we don't have much time left!" At this point, Wang Kai seemed a bit impatient and directly interrupted Wang Zijun.
Wang Zijun nodded but didn't seem particularly afraid of Wang Kai. Suddenly, her palm flashed, revealing a gleaming blade that radiated a deadly aura.
"Now, who should I start with? You all treated me so well before; how can I bear to hurt you now?" Wang Zijun looked at the row of people glaring at her, yet her expression remained unchanged. She walked toward them step by step, exuding an immense sense of pressure.
"Let's start with Woods. Weren't you willing to die for me when you pursued me? Well, I'll grant you that wish now!" With a strange smile, Wang Zijun appeared right in front of Woods!
In the next moment, a flash erupted from Wang Zijun's hand as she aimed for Woods' forehead.
Clang—just then, a sudden metallic clash rang out. Wang Zijun gasped in surprise and stumbled back a few steps, staring incredulously at Douglas.
"What powerful Psychic Power! To still exert half your strength despite being internally restrained!" A look of disbelief crossed Wang Zijun's face. She knew that these people were currently at their weakest; she could have taken them down without much effort. Yet unexpectedly, someone had emerged so strong as to knock the blade from her hand!
Suddenly, at that moment, a shadow flashed past! Instantly, a blade appeared against Wang Zijun's snow-white neck—it was the dagger she had just lost!
"Let us go, or I'll kill him!" Woods shouted fiercely, his face contorted with rage. At that moment, he resembled a gambler who had lost everything and was making one last desperate struggle. It was no wonder; although he had failed to win over Wang Zijun before, it did not diminish her image in his heart. But now the woman he was infatuated with was on Zombie's side and wanted to kill him—how could Woods accept that?
However, he also realized that he had to kill this woman in front of him if he wanted any chance of survival. Yet given his past deep infatuation with her, his voice trembled as he spoke!
"Hahaha, Woods, did you really think I didn't know about your Shadow Ability? Although your shadow is unaffected by drugs, do you really think you can kill me?" Wang Zijun said nonchalantly, her eyes filled with disdain. The reason she targeted Woods first was precisely because she knew he possessed the Shadow Ability!
"Woods, don't be impulsive!" Although Woods had also reached the peak of Ten Star Level, he was absolutely no match for Wang Kai or even Wang Zijun.
"Boss, I've lived this long, so I consider it a gain. Even if I die this time, I will ensure you all escape!"
As soon as Woods finished speaking, the originally vague shadow suddenly shook and transformed into wisps of light smoke that enveloped Wang Zijun! But at that moment, Lin Yi clearly saw the wicked smile at the corner of Wang Zijun's mouth.
Then, a bizarre scene unfolded. Just as Woods' shadow completely wrapped around Wang Zijun, the pitch-black smoke suddenly turned gray. In the blink of an eye, while everyone was still in shock, the gray smoke became covered in cracks.
With a "crack crack crack," those cracks shattered, and a slender hand pierced through the humanoid gray sphere. The gray smoke seemed petrified as it fell away in flakes. Then, Wang Zijun twisted her waist and emerged from within.
"Petrification Ability!" Lin Yi murmured these words softly. No wonder the opponent was so fearless; everything had been part of her plan all along.
"Pfft—" Woods spat out a mouthful of blood, his face turning pale from its previous flush. The disappearance of his shadow was equivalent to taking half his life; now he was at his weakest.
"Alright, you can go die now!" This time, Wang Zijun showed no mercy as a bright light erupted from her hand! Douglas's Psychic Power was indeed powerful, but at this moment it could not stop what was coming. A red dot appeared on Woods' forehead.
Woods' eyes widened as life rapidly faded from him. On his face, one could see relief, loneliness, grievance, and even affection; but more than anything else, there was anger. Perhaps he had never imagined that he would ultimately die at the hands of someone he still liked until his last breath. (To be continued...)
