Many years later, on a summer day beneath the shade of a tree, someone would recall an event that seemed to have happened long ago. A slightly plump man, wielding a gleaming silver blade, charged toward a horde of Zombies. His steps appeared somewhat clumsy, and his emotions seemed overly agitated. Yet, it was undeniable that he was earnestly showcasing his best self. The man was most charming when he was at his most serious, a realization that Reiko finally came to understand after all those years.
Lin Yi ran while tearing open a package to consume the Potential Gene Drug inside. He could no longer afford to hesitate; he was furious—an uncontrollable rage that could only be quelled by slaughter. Anyone who faced this endless onslaught of Zombies repeatedly would lose their composure.
"Mr. Lin, there's no need to push yourself so hard!" Reagan feigned concern as he saw Lin Yi rushing forward, yet he did not seem afraid of the furious Lin Yi.
Lin Yi had been possessed by the spirit of a warrior, making him incredibly fierce. His gaze toward Reagan grew colder; there was no need for compassion toward someone who was about to die.
The blade flashed as the heads of the Zombies fell before they even realized what was happening. Lin Yi's emotions gradually subdued; he needed to kill Reagan first and then take down Zhao Pei, who had already undergone Corpseification. He was not a savior; he simply wanted to live peacefully without being disturbed.
Reagan's Consciousness sensed something was off. Was that blood-soaked figure still Lin Yi? That cold gaze seemed more ruthless than his own—had he joined Reagan's team?
However, Reagan had no time to ponder further as Lin Yi closed in on him. It was too fast; Reagan couldn't react in time. He had never seen a human with such formidable combat abilities. The Zombies in front of him were mere obstacles; after Lin Yi passed by, several Zombies fell lifelessly.
He couldn't let this demon approach—this was Reagan's thought, but it was already too late!
Kill, kill, kill! This was all Lin Yi could think about; he felt as if his body was no longer under his control. He could see every movement of the enemy clearly; it was as if his blade had gained a soul and acted on its own to slay.
With swift thrusts, Lin Yi pierced the chests of the Zombies. The freshly Corpseified Zombies still had plenty of blood that gushed out as Lin Yi tore them open without mercy. Though these new Zombies still retained human features, Lin Yi showed no hesitation in killing them. Even though he had disemboweled them, they did not die immediately. Yet Lin Yi seemed to revel in this brutal slaughter; his speed ensured that even after opening one Zombie's belly and severing its head, he still had time for more.
Blood from various types of Zombies splattered onto Lin Yi, transforming him into a demon emerging from a sea of blood. Apart from the gleaming weapon in his hand, his entire body was covered in foul blood. The stench would make anyone else retch uncontrollably.
Yet none of this seemed to matter to Lin Yi; his emotionless eyes fixed on Reagan, the human who stood out among the Zombies.
He approached closer—was this fool paralyzed with fear? Reagan stood frozen in place. Lin Yi smirked coldly; he did not intend to simply end this traitor's life with one strike. He wanted to sever his limbs first and then rip out his organs to see if he truly had a heart or not.
With practiced ease, Lin Yi swung his knife toward Reagan's arm. Watching the terror in Reagan's eyes brought him an inexplicable sense of satisfaction. At that moment, it felt like he was merely performing an ordinary task rather than taking a life.
However, exceptions exist; unpredictable situations can arise. Lin Yi moved quickly—so quickly that it seemed the other Zombies were stretching their necks and standing still for him to strike. He believed there was no one among these Zombies who could threaten him, so he swung his knife with ease. Just as his blade was about to sever Reagan's arm, suddenly a steel rod shot out from outside and blocked his strike. Since taking the drug, Lin Yi had felt as if everything around him had come to a standstill—only his knife and body were in motion. But now he found himself shocked that a steel rod could intercept his Silver Soul attack.
"Is it you?" Lin Yi looked up to see a terrifying face resembling dead wood, devoid of any expression. Or perhaps that face wanted to show an expression, but it was simply too difficult, too extravagant.
The other party seemed to nod at him, and Lin Yi felt a powerful force transmitted from Silver Soul to his arm. His knife nearly slipped from his grasp; how strong could this person be?
Lin Yi quickly steadied his mind. He couldn't act carelessly like before. Ever since he took the Gene Drug, his strength had increased more than tenfold. Even facing an elephant, he felt confident he could take it down in an instant. Yet, the emaciated Zombie before him possessed such immense power!
Zhao Pei ignored Lin Yi's shock. After nodding, she swung a solid steel rod toward Lin Yi's head.
Damn it, she really doesn't care about past friendships! Lin Yi shouted and twisted his body at an incredible angle, causing the swinging rod to miss him entirely.
Seizing the moment, Lin Yi quickly stepped back. Although the other Zombies still appeared slow in his eyes, Zhao Pei had already qualified as a formidable opponent.
Two shadows of rods accompanied by a whooshing sound came swinging toward Lin Yi. Despite his quick reflexes, both sides were blocked, leaving only a bending motion to evade the lightning-fast strike. With a twist of his waist, he executed a graceful roll to escape Zhao Pei's attack range.
However, against an equally matched opponent, the sharpest attack was often the best strategy. Without hesitation, Lin Yi didn't wait for his body to stabilize; he pushed off with his toes and thrust his knife straight toward Zhao Pei's gaunt head.
Zhao Pei was no pushover; without even looking at Lin Yi, she deftly angled her steel rod to barely block the tip of Lin Yi's knife. With her strength dissipated, Lin Yi had no choice but to withdraw his knife and attack again. Unfortunately, he lacked combat skills beyond the basics of swinging, slashing, stabbing, and chopping. Especially now that Zhao Pei wielded two steel rods; even though Lin Yi was slightly faster, it was easy for her to strike from both sides and seize the initiative.
Lin Yi felt a headache coming on; he needed to end this quickly because there were important people waiting for him to protect! Yet Zhao Pei seemed determined not to give him any chance to escape, relentlessly pursuing him. Facing such an apparently flawless opponent made Lin Yi sweat profusely. No matter how he attacked, Zhao Pei danced her steel rods in a way that left no openings for him.
He had to retreat; he couldn't let her hold him back. With worry in his heart, Lin Yi pretended to increase his attack but suddenly pulled back and used the momentum to retreat. However, Zhao Pei seemed intent on sticking with him; as he began to back away, several Zombies immediately surrounded him. While Lin Yi swung his knife to eliminate these obstacles, Zhao Pei closed in on him again.
"Yi~" A familiar voice reached Lin Yi's ears as he struggled with Zhao Pei.
Not good; Wen is in danger! Hearing Li Qiweng's shout made Lin Yi's heart tremble with pain and anxiety.
Following the sound, Lin Yi saw that what should have been the battlefield goddess Li Qiweng was now surrounded by several Giant Zombies, seemingly on the verge of being torn apart by them. At that moment, everyone around was desperately fighting off Zombies with no one having enough time to rescue Li Qiweng.
Seeing this scene made Lin Yi feel blood rush to his head; he had to save Wen! But Zhao Pei seemed unwilling to give him that opportunity as she relentlessly attacked him with her two rods.
"Get lost!" Lin Yi shouted, swinging down with all his might at the steel rods that were coming at him.
With a sharp sound, like fingertips scraping across glass, Zhao Pei's two steel rods were severed in an instant!
Lin Yi didn't have time to admire his own bravery; at that moment, Li Qiweng was already slumped on the ground, on the verge of losing consciousness as the effects of the drug wore off.
He had to hurry, as fast as possible! Lin Yi powered through with his legs, preparing to leap over Zhao Pei's obstruction. However, Zhao Pei was not an easy zombie to give up; it hurled the two broken steel rods towards Lin Yi, who was ready to take off.
"Die!" Lin Yi's eyes turned completely red, and he let out a roar like a beast that even Zhao Pei seemed to find overwhelming. He raised his arm and swung his Silver Soul twice to block the incoming rods.
But Zhao Pei was not human; it felt no other emotions. After throwing the two rods, it closed in on Lin Yi with incredible speed. Just as Lin Yi raised his weapon to strike at the rods, Zhao Pei's bony hands struck hard against Lin Yi's chest.
With a thud, Lin Yi was hit with such force that he spat out a mouthful of blood, which splattered onto Zhao Pei's face. The creature extended its scarlet tongue and licked the blood from the corner of its mouth with a sense of enjoyment.
At that moment, Lin Yi felt as if his ribs had shattered from the pain; it felt like his internal organs were about to burst from the impact. But with someone he loved dearly in such a life-threatening situation, how could he give up?
Though Zhao Pei had dealt him a heavy blow, Lin Yi managed to create some distance between them. Taking advantage of the moment before Zhao Pei could engage him again, he swung his blade to cut down any zombies in his way while rushing towards Li Qiweng.
In that instant, covered in grime and blood, Lin Yi wielded his gleaming silver blade to slay the horde of undead. He resembled an ancient fire god incarnate, fighting magic with magic and demons with demons!
