Fallen from the peak to the depths of despair, Lin Yi felt nearly hopeless. Previously, even when facing pursuit, he had enough ability to protect himself. But now, he was no different from an ordinary person, vulnerable to being killed at any moment.
The thought of suicide had never crossed Lin Yi's mind before, yet it now haunted him frequently. Like a walking corpse, he wandered endlessly in the desert. It was only when he collapsed from exhaustion that a family fleeing from danger rescued him. At that moment, he realized he was in the Sahara Desert, not far from Egypt.
The family that saved him could not support him for long, and Lin Yi insisted on moving towards areas with more zombies. However, when he learned that zombies were launching large-scale attacks, the flicker of hope ignited in his near-dead heart. Although the family was unaware of the situation, Lin Yi guessed that many would likely believe his words.
Yet the following days were painfully difficult; the number of people he encountered dwindled while the news grew increasingly terrifying. It wasn't until he reached the Steel Fortress outside the Nile River that he truly understood most of the planet had fallen under zombie control, plunging him into despair.
Strangely, when zombies saw him, none attacked. This puzzled Lin Yi to the point where he questioned whether he had already begun to undergo corpseification but chose a different path instead.
Later, he realized he had no cannibalistic tendencies and was still relying on human food to replenish his energy, confirming that he had not undergone corpseification. The existence of zombies depended on consuming human flesh and blood to evolve; Lin Yi believed if he truly contracted the zombie virus, there would be no escaping that fate.
He eventually learned about the Resistance but felt helpless as an ordinary person who couldn’t travel far. Still, he held onto hope that someone would come to find him—though he never expected it would be Li Qiweng.
However, upon seeing him now, Li Qiweng was not cold enough to chill his heart but clearly indifferent to Lin Yi's life or death.
When Li Qiweng saw Lin Yi in a state of madness, her lips twitched slightly. Then she waved her hand casually, and the black flames clinging to Lin Yi's arm vanished. At that moment, however, Lin Yi's entire arm had already burned away. Even his disheveled hair had been singed significantly. He looked even more wretched than before.
Seeing Li Qiweng extinguish his black flames made Wang Xing frown involuntarily. Suddenly, with a swift motion of his arm, he slapped toward Li Qiweng's face.
At that instant, something miraculous happened. Wang Xing's arm halted just a centimeter away from Li Qiweng's face.
At this moment, the War God Suit Wang Xing wore activated on its own, transforming into a flowing mass of black substance that wrapped around his arm tightly, halting his movement completely.
Li Qiweng was also displeased; although she hadn’t expected Wang Xing to act suddenly, she retreated to a safe distance as soon as his movement stopped!
"What are you doing?!"
Almost simultaneously, two shouts rang out—Lin Yi and Li Qiweng!
"Hehe, what’s this? Do you both want to rekindle old feelings and team up against me?" Wang Xing's laughter was hoarse, like two pieces of dry bark rubbing together. His gaze remained fixed on the War God Suit coiling around his arm like a python; he couldn't comprehend why it could move on its own.
Li Qiweng was furious; just as her shout echoed through the air, she became a blur and appeared at Wang Xing's left side with a swift motion!
Before Wang Xing could react, a shadow like a red lightning bolt slammed into his face with a loud "smack." In the next moment, Wang Xing shot backward like a cannonball.
With a resounding "boom," he crashed into a nearby pile of garbage, creating a massive hole.
"Whoosh—"
Wang Xing was quick to recover. Just as he was sent flying by Li Qiweng's slap, he steadied himself and flew back.
At this moment, half of Wang Xing's face was caved in, and even his eyeball seemed to have sunk in and disappeared. However, he was recovering at an astonishing speed; almost the instant he regained his footing, the life-threatening injury that would be fatal to an ordinary person healed in the blink of an eye.
"Don't think just because I usually let you off easy that you can hit me whenever you want!"
Li Qiweng glared coldly at Wang Xing, her aura rising steadily. Wang Xing's earlier actions had already angered her! As soon as Wang Xing finished speaking, Li Qiweng moved again. For some reason, she felt an unusual rage boiling within her.
Standing before this incredibly handsome man, one that even women envied, she only wanted to beat him mercilessly until he could no longer take care of himself.
"Stop!" Wang Xing's arm was inexplicably controlled by the War God Suit. Faced with this suddenly furious ice queen, he felt a twinge of fear.
In the next moment, something strange happened. Just as Wang Xing shouted out, the War God Suit that had been binding his arm suddenly fell away and began to move on its own, heading straight toward Lin Yi!
"What…"
Li Qiweng was stunned by this sight. She knew the origin of the War God Suit on Wang Xing; it had been modified by top-tier intelligent experts!
"Hahaha, I'm back!"
While the three were still in shock, the moving War God Suit suddenly began to coalesce into shape! But when it formed a face and body, all three were left dumbfounded!
Wasn't this Lin Yi? Aside from the black color of the War God Suit itself, its appearance and physique were identical to Lin Yi!
"Sir, I no longer have to serve that useless fool!"
The War God Suit suddenly lunged into Lin Yi's embrace, holding him tightly with tears streaming down its face, resembling a child who had been wronged finally seeing their parent.
"Black..."
Lin Yi never expected to see Black again. After his War God Suit had been taken away, he thought he would never find it again. To his surprise, it had been occupied by Wang Xing!
Each War God Suit was equipped with a combat system tailored to its owner, completely integrated with them. However, Black's behavior was puzzling; how could it still recognize him?
"Yes, sir, I have endured much humiliation and suffered greatly these days!" At this point, Black couldn't help but "cry" again. However, with its pitch-black face, it was hard to believe it was truly sad.
Lin Yi awkwardly patted Black's head. Seeing this War God Suit that looked exactly like him stirred complex feelings within him that were difficult to articulate.
"What happened?" Lin Yi asked, knowing that Wang Xing wouldn't act just yet.
"This is thanks to Charlie. When he was repairing me, he discovered that the War God Suit had a backdoor controlled by the developers. Being a software expert himself, he directly wrote a hidden program into my quantum chip specifically for my protection.
Later, I was reprogrammed, but that hidden door remained dormant, waiting for the right moment. Normally, the War God Suit is controlled by the rewritten program, but if I wanted to, I could regain control of the War God Suit at any time. However, I never had the chance; they were all too powerful. Just now, when your blood seeped into the War God Suit, I knew you had arrived and immediately activated the hidden door within the suit to regain control!"
Lin Yi was taken aback; he hadn't expected that Charlie's earlier assistance would turn out to be such a significant help. Moreover, the contingency plan had been in place for quite some time.
"A useless person and an ungrateful machine—then let you both die together!"
Hearing Black's account ignited Wang Xing's fury. The thought that everything he did was being monitored by this entity made him extremely angry!
From birth, Wang Xing unleashed dozens of energy spears toward the two.
"Sir's heart!"
Just then, Black realized that Lin Yi had lost his strength. As soon as Wang Xing made his move, it transformed into an afterimage and positioned itself directly in front of Lin Yi.
"Clang! Clang! Clang!"
A series of explosive sounds erupted, and the black figure was constantly dented as it was pressed, its entire body retreating under the tremendous impact.
"A robot with Ten-Star Combat Power thinks it can fight me? What a joke!"
The previous strike was merely an appetizer. After Wang Xing's casual attack failed, a massive Energy Blade appeared in his hand.
In the next moment, Wang Xing lunged forward, the gray Energy Blade gleaming with a gloomy light that was suffocating.
The black figure, being just a combat machine, showed no concern. It pushed off the ground and charged forward, wielding a large black blade that was thick and sharp!
Lin Yi barely had time to react before he saw a dark figure descending like a meteor, crashing down and creating a large pit in the ground!
Looking up again, Wang Xing was still hovering in the air, while the black figure had vanished from sight.
"Boom—"
Before Wang Xing could make another move, a black figure shot out from the pit, covered in dust.
"Red, your husband is getting beaten up! Aren't you coming out?" With that exclamation from the black figure, the other three nearly fell over in shock!
This specially designed combat suit actually had a wife? Even though the three had seen much in their time, they were left gaping in astonishment as if their jaws had dislocated.
