Lin Wenbo and Song Haoran remained silent for several minutes in front of the door before walking in slowly. The blood under their feet had dripped from the corpses to the ground and hadn’t completely dried up yet had agglomerated. It made the ground under their feet feel soft and tender like tofu even as if almost reached their ankles. Whenever their foot would lift off from the clotted blood, a sound of fizz and bubbles would be emitted and would sting their eardrums and frighten their hearts.
“These corpses are human.” Song Haoran determined with a deep voice after he had bent over, fiddled with the body of a corpse and saw no sharp black nails.
“They were all discarded here are they were eaten up by zombies. Look here, there are teeth marks on the bones and the body’s muscles were eaten clean, leaving only some organs. After evolution to the third-level low-grade, zombies only eat flesh and not organs.” Lin Wenbo said while pointing at one of the corpses.
“So it seems that there’s this fourth-level low-grade zombie must have stayed here for a long time, waiting for people to come to their door to eat. Do you think that the news that there’s food in Fenghuang and the appearance of this zombie is a coincidence or is it deliberate?” Song Haoran rubbed his chin as he asked Lin Wenbo.
“It could be a coincidence; it could be intentional.” Lin Wenbo stood up and took out a handkerchief from his pocket to wipe the hand that had touched the corpse.
Gong Lixin heard some of their conversations and frowned. Suddenly, his gaze was like lightning as he snapped his sight towards the hatch. Facing his sharp sight, Jin Shangyu was shocked. She covered her nose and mouth with her hands and backed up again.
Gong Lixin squinted his eyes and shifted his weight to the tip of his toes. He then headed straight towards outside of the warehouse and straight towards Jin Shangyu. Jin Shangyu’s face turned so pale that she turned to run. What she didn’t expect was that Gong Lixin simply brushed past her without even giving her a passing glance. Jin Shangyu felt dumbfounded as she watched the teenager pass her and leap toward the top of the warehouse. Since he was not chasing her, why did he run towards her?
But soon, her doubts were answered. Gong Lixin saw a few shifts in the shadow and jumped from the skylight into a warehouse and disappeared. The sound of fists and kicks in the warehouse was heard. After a while, a figure smashed through the iron door and slid across the ground and stopped a few feet away and made for a sorry sight. Although the figure’s face could not be seen, its cold, black nails and unusually pale skin showed that it was a zombie.
Song Haoran and Lin Wenbo, who also came out of the warehouse, became alert.

The zombie dodged left and right, deftly avoiding the fireball attack and kept approaching the group of people. The fireball hit the ground like meteors and exploded upon contact, making deep pits; its power akin to dozens of artillery shots.
The gravel and sparks from the blast splashed around and anyone hit would gain serious injuries. Liu Qing and the others on the side hid behind the granary to avoid being affected. But the zombie was not afraid and a faint golden halo emanated from his body, blocked him from harm as it rushed straight toward Song Haoran.
Song Haoran’s body was also covered with a red glow. He confronted the zombie with long hair and an unclear face. Lin Wenbo saw it rushing forward and joined hands with Song Haoran. In the face of zombies, humans do not adhere to the principle of fighting fair. Not to mention that the golden eyes and vertical pupils of the zombie that was half-hidden behind his hair were such a deep and pure colour that the level of the zombie is surely fourth-level, low-grade. Without joining their hands, they would surely die.
The third-level high-grade and fourth-level low-grade; although the only difference between the two is only a grade, there was still an insurmountable gap in strength. Even if they teamed up, Lin Wenbo and Song Haoran were only able to tie with the zombie. Gong Lixin, who had been on the side, pulled out the knife on his waist and took a few steps forward, ready to support at any time. He could have dealt with the zombie alone, but he knew that fighting against strong enemies would increase their strength. And either way, Brother Lin and Brother Song wouldn’t want him to intervene. He just had to stand by and make sure they were safe.
When everyone hiding behind the granary saw the situation, their handing hearts slowly landed. The two master ability users united and Young Master Gong was also surveying the battle. They didn’t believe that this zombie could beat them, just die! Jin Shangyu’s tense face, however, did not relax at all. While several people’s attention was on the fight, she covered her mouth and issued a low-sounding signal.
Hearing the signal, the zombie’s ears moved. He avoided the iron fist launched by Lin Wenbo as his eyes locked onto Jin Shangyu before striking like lightning. Liu Qing and the others were too frightened to flee. Only Jin Shangyu stood upright with a frightened look. The zombie grabbed her and fled quickly, no longer willing to fight.
This happened too suddenly. Lin Wenbo and Song Haoran both stopped and looked at the back of the zombie in astonishment.
“Catch him! Jin Shangyu can’t die!” Gong Lixin didn’t expect this to happen. He immediately gave chase after finally reacting. Lin Wenbo, Song Haoran, Liu Qing and his group quickly followed.
The advantage of a metal-user zombie lies in its indestructible body; thus speed was not its strength, not to mention it was carrying a living person on its shoulders. Therefore, Gong Lixin and his party quickly caught up with him. Seeing that the distance was getting smaller and smaller, a layer of mist suddenly rose in front of the group. After a few seconds, the mist dissipated and the long rooftop under their feet turned into a long flat passage as if they were in a secret dimension with no way out and no end.
The crowd became so horrified that they stopped immediately and surveyed their surrounding. Was this an illusion or did they hit a wall? With suspicion in their hearts, they didn’t dare to act lightly for a while.
When Gong Lixin saw the flat road under his feet, his eyes narrowed, but his earlier pace used to catch up with the zombie didn’t decrease. The eyes could be deceived, but the ears couldn’t be deceived. He could still hear the footsteps of that zombie not too far ahead. If he stopped right now and waited for the zombie to run out of the area, its footsteps would merge with the other zombies and he would no longer be able to distinguish them. And then, Jin Shangyu was dead!
Thinking of that, Gong Lixin closed his eyes and chased after him with his keen ears. His five senses were superb, even if he loses the guidance of his eyes, jumping on roofs, bypassing lampposts and turning around the corner, nothing could stop him. It took more than ten minutes before he felt his skin feel loose and sticky and he opened his eyes again. The pathway under his feet had disappeared and turned back into a road blocked by vehicles. The zombie was also just up ahead, leaping up onto a wall not too far ahead and limping into a botanical garden.
The wall of the botanical garden was covered with vines and large leaves surrounded it making it look lush and lively with its green colour, bringing some life to this dreadful apocalyptic world. But this piece of greenery was too eye-catching against the background of dilapidated buildings. It was very offensive, very detached; like the most beautiful, yet deadliest of flowers.
Gong Lixin frowned and jumped onto the wall without hesitation. Even if it was dangerous inside, he would not let Jin Shangyu die.
As soon as Gong Lixin landed on the other side of the wall, countless vines twisted and climbed onto his body, constricting him. This kind of vine was not as strong as steel diamond vine and thus was not strong enough to constrict people to death, but the small fluff on the vines and the leaves seemed to almost have a conscious as they immediately drilled into the pores of Gong Lixin’s exposed skin, sucking madly at the blood in his body.
Feeling that his blood was being drained, Gong Lixin pushed his internal force out, breaking the vines around him. If it was someone else, they couldn’t quickly break away from the vines restraining them without the protection of one’s internal force. And with the countless tiny villi on the vine that could drain blood, they would die within seconds. This mutant plant was no dangerous than the steel diamond vine.
Gong Lixin, who had always loved collecting seeds of mutant plants for his team members, did not stop this time to study it but followed the direction the metal-ability zombie escaped towards. Along the way, met the mutant plants again and again and each time; tiny velvet flowers, thorn vines and other poisonous plants were such mutant plants that would launch their attacks at him. After he cleared all the obstacles and chased them to a glass greenhouse in the middle of the botanical garden, he saw Jin Shangyu paralyzed on the ground. The metal fourth-level low-grade zombie was sticking out its sharp nails as if to grab her shoulder or cut her throat.
Gong Lixin’s palm shot towards the zombie in the glass greenhouse as he floated to the side of a stunned Jin Shangyu on his toes. He gently pushed her out of the battle circle with the wind from his palm and turned around and faced the metal-ability zombie that climbed out from the broken glass in landed in and charged into battle
There were no dazzling moves; the two confronted each other with formidable strength. The violent impact of fists and feet were endless and made one’s scalp tingle. With one punch, a deep pit was easily created and the hard ground was torn apart with a single. Thus, in a few minutes, the entire glass greenhouse collapsed under their fierce battle.
With a punch to his chest and a faint feeling of pain, Gong Lixin, who was unable to notice it at the moment, had the corner of his lips slightly hooked up as his eyes were bright and his face showed an expression of extreme enjoyment. The more aggressive he was, the stronger his hits were and, gradually, the golden aura film covering the zombie’s body became fainter and fainter before it completely disappeared.
Another punch came and the metal-ability zombie was unable to avoid it, making him take it head-on. They all heard a crisp sound before he fell on its back. His chest slumped inward, showing that his ribs broke through his chest and pierced through his clothes, leaving him naked and exposed. Along with the crack, a trace of black blood leaked between his sharp teeth. The zombie yelled, unwilling to lose and supported his body up to continue to fight, but was kicked by Gong Lixin in the leg, breaking it into incredible shapes.
The sharp claws scratched the ground, creating deep trenches. The metal -ability zombie screamed, spitting black blood and tried hard to move inch by inch. His golden, vertical eyes flickered with unwillingness and a fierce light, but it was also mixed with a little fear of the person in front of him.
Gong Lixin was bored. The smile at the corner of his mouth disappeared and he flashed to the zombie’s side, grabbing him by the throat. He gathered his fingers together, like a knife, and was about to pierce between his brows and pulled out its nucleus.
“Don’t kill him! He’s my brother!” At the very end, Jin Shangyu finally stopped pretending and, with a crying and high-pitched voice, yelled. Her pale lips were bloodless and showed how hard it was for her to bear seeing the scene before her.
Gong Lixin’s hand stopped just as he was about to pierce the zombie’s head. Gong Lixin then turned his head to look back, his expression stunned.
