Lord of End of World

The fourth-level low-grade wind zombie cracked open his rotting lips and shrieked at the seven people. The roar didn’t even finish resounding before its body shot out like a cannonball, rushing towards the seven people at a speed invisible to the naked eye. The traffic light mast, which it had been standing on, couldn’t withstand the pressure and broke in two, falling to the ground.

The greatest advantage of humans and zombies with wind ability was speed. How much power can be generated with speed alone? There’s a saying in the martial arts world; with speed, you’re invincible! With speed, one can take advantage of any opportunity and with just that, win half of the battle.

If the fourth-level low-grade zombie met other people today, he would definitely not be at a disadvantage. One strike and dead. But it just so happened to be Gong Lixin who was a martial arts expert. Gong Lixin also understood the importance of speed. Not only did he understand it, but he was also better at using it.

At the same when the zombie struck, Gong Lixin also bent his legs and ejected like a bullet. The two shadows met in mid-air and fought against each other, hundreds of strikes passing in just one breath.

Lin Wenbo and Song Haoran frowned, watching as the hard concrete road was torn apart by the young man’s kick, creating a deep pit. They were shocked. They had thought that that teenager was strong already, but didn’t expect that he had always held back. Was he really moving at a speed so fast that the human eye could barely recognize it?

The other four became desperate as soon as they saw the appearance of the fourth-level low-grade wind zombie. The strength in their bodies were all drained and they could only collapse in the corner and wait for death. When the teenager rushed out, they didn’t know what was going on. When they finally returned to reality, they could only look at the after shadow left by them as they watched on with dumbfounded expressions on their faces. They were so shocked, they shook their head, unable to believe the reality before them.

The two shadows continued to fight. Although the people on the ground couldn’t see their movements, they could hear the crackling sound of flesh and wind. Song Haoran and Lin Wenbo felt heartache. They didn’t know how many of these fists and palms had hit their precious teenager. A feeling of weakness and helplessness filled their hearts. After all, they were still too weak. They needed to become strong as soon as possible so that they can protect the young man from all the wind and rain.

Gong Lixin didn’t know that the people on the ground were worrying for him. Right now, his face showed a smiling expression filled with interest. His eyes flashed with joy as he seriously faced this zombie. In order not to standoff, he had suppressed himself for far too long. Finally, he encountered an opponent who could stand on par with him in battle. He felt very relaxed and didn’t want to end the battle too quickly.

When hit by a wind blade, although it couldn’t cut his skin, it still brought on pain. Gong Lixin enjoyed this feeling during the battle. It stimulated him to become more courageous and more excited. However, the wind zombie couldn’t afford his onslaught and didn’t understand why this human had been hit by many of its wind blades, but didn’t die.

The zombie already had a certain amount of wisdom. After being pushed by Gong Lixin’s palm and embedded into the roof of a bus with a large gaping hole in his chest that exposed his ribs, he turned away his sight and quickly climbed out, before hurrying to a small alley close by, ready to escape.

The bones of its extremities were completely exposed by Gong Lixin and its speed was much slower than before. Therefore, the people who were watching could this time clearly see its movements and were stunned: Was this zombie afraid of being beaten to death and trying to escape? Was this really a fourth-level low-grade zombie?

Seeing this, Gong Lixin’s happiness was greatly diminished. He flashed from where he was midair, to behind the zombie, pushing him to the ground with a kick. The zombie suddenly fell and smashed into the ground and created a deep pit. Without waiting for it to climb back up, Gong Lixin aligned his fingers together into a knife and slashed across its head, cutting the skill in to and digging out the crystal nuclei in one fell sweep.

Lin Wenbo and Song Haoran couldn’t help themselves as their tight expressions relaxed at the sight. Although the expressions of the other four were still dumbfounded, their bodies were shaking, not because of shock, but because of excitement. Killing a fourth-level low-grade win zombie in such a neat way, what level was the youth at? Fourth-level mid-grade? Fourth-level high-grade? Fifth-level low-grade? Many unbelievable speculations swirled in their minds, but unfortunately, they couldn’t make any judgments from the youth’s eyes. They only felt that the youth’s eyes were bright, like a cold star, making them afraid to look at them directly.

Ging Lixin shook off the brain matter from his hand and looked at the nucleus in his palm. The colour was such a pure turquoise, like a millennium-year-old jade. His lips curved up into a smile at the sight. The crystal nucleus will be kept until Big Brother He comes back. Then it will be a gift for him.

"Lixin, show me." Song Haoran said curiously.

"Here." Gong Lixin passed it over.

"The colour’s a little darker than the third-level zombies and the size is a bit larger as well." Lin Wenbo looked at it and analyzed. The crystal nuclei they had collected before were all the size of coins, but this one was as large as a pigeon egg and was a deeper colour.

The four came out of their stupor and couldn’t help their curiosity. They came up and looked, with admiration spilling out of their mouths; their eyes filled with envy, but no greed. Honestly, this youth could handle a fourth-level zombie with ease and without injury. They couldn’t afford to offend even if they sacrificed a hundred of their lives. At first, they thought that the young man was the Golden Eyes and Red Eyes pet lover. Now, when they looked at them again, they found that Golden Eyes and Red Eyes mainly followed the young man. They had been deceived by the soft and delicate looks of the youth.

"It’s estimated that those wind zombies were summoned by this fourth-level low-grade zombie. It first sent its subordinates to weaken our forces while it hid in the dark. Then it sneaked in and joined the fight as soon as they were unable to do so. It seems that the evolution of fourth-level zombies not only made them gain some wisdom, but also the special ability to control lower-level zombies of the same elemental department." Lin Wenbo turned over the corpse to look at it as he analyzed worriedly.

"Even if they gain wisdom, their wisdom is not too high. Otherwise, it could have arranged more subtle traps, but instead called its friends. The danger of our mission will greatly increase in the future. If it was not for Lixin, we would all have died here." Song Haoran returned the crystal nucleus to Gong Lixin with a solemn expression.

The others showed a fearful expression and unconsciously moved closer to the teenager to find a sense of security.

"Zombies are getting stronger and we are getting stronger too. Aren’t Brother Lin and Brother Song getting promoted to fourth-level soon? We will stay together for future tasks, that way, nothing will happen." Gong Lixin patted Song Haoran’s back to appease him and reached out to touch Lin Wenbo’s head but found that he was not tall enough. He scrunched his brows and retracted his hand to pat him on the shoulder instead.

"That’s right, we will always be together." Lin Wenbo teased seeing the trace of regret and frustration in the teenager’s eyes. He swept him into his arms and kissed his cheek lovingly.

Song Haoran’s smile stiffened because of his friend’s actions. He immediately pulled the boy over after a moment of frustration. He took a bite of the young man’s thin lips as a show of possessiveness and showed a contented expression.

The four people on the sidelines looked on, expressionless. Their tolerance was rising rapidly.

Lin Wenbo didn’t care about his friend’s provocation. He smiled gently and warmly said, "Let’s not wait for the coercion of the fourth-level zombie to dissipate or else the other low-level zombies will soon gather around.

Everyone stood up and left as soon as they heard his words. The four people they picked up chatted with Gong Lixin, and introduced themselves amicably. Aside from Xiao Shui, second-level high-grade water ability user, among the three other people, there was Liu Qing, the third-level low-grade earth user and the tallest and strongest among them. The shortest but muscular man named Shu Yi was an second-level high-grade fire ability user. Ah Gua was a frank and joyous man and was a second level high-grade wood ability user.

Although Gong Lixin ignored the four, he didn’t show a look of impatience as he walked on.

The four had probably guessed from their conversation that they came from a certain base, but they didn’t know how to ask so they could join and thus just eagerly scratched their ears and jumped up and down. Now, in this kind of world, even the zombies teamed up. Human beings would no longer be able to survive if they didn’t unite against the enemy and would sooner or later die. The four were originally a small group that wandered everywhere and had no place to stay. Because their overall strength was fairly high and their luck was quite good, they had been able to survive up until today. But after seeing the hunting method of a fourth-level low-grade zombie, they finally realized how dangerous their way of survival was. If they don’t depend on someone strong, they may not have such luck the next time around.

Although Lin Wenbo and Song Haoran knew their thoughts, they didn’t respond to them. Long Snake Island was no better than Minjiang Base. Its internal situation was rather complicated. They must be cautious in bringing in foreign personal. However, if they could help them find the Little Demon, they might consider it.

Thinking about that, Lin Wenbo grinned and slowly broached the subject, "We’re from Long Snake Island. We came to Fenghuang not to look for food this time, but to find someone. I wonder if you can help us? If you can, we’ll be extremely grateful."

"Who are you looking for? We’ll help if we can!" Liu Qing thumped his chest.

"A woman whose name is unknown, her appearance is unknown, her age is unknown, but her nickname is Little Demon, she likes wearing a black cloak, is about 1.5 meters tall, has a thin figure, a sombre personality and smells of medicine. That’s all I know about her."

Liu Qing and the others were stumped. Those features were far too vague. However, if they could find that person, they could join the peerless master’s base. Thinking of that, they soon showed a cheerful expression and agreed to help once again.

The group walked briskly towards the five-star hotel on the corner of the street. Thanks to the fourth-level low-grade wind zombie’s lingering aura, the road was very peaceful.

When entering the hotel lobby, Gong Lixin’s ears moved and his stopped in his steps before quickly returning to normal. He followed Lin Wenbo and Song Haoran and walked towards the stairs. Lin Wenbo and Song Haoran habitually hid the colour of their iris, causing Liu Qing and the others to stare at them frequently. They didn’t understand how they did it, but they didn’t dare to ask. They could only guess quietly: This may be an ability unique to higher-level ability users.

After climbing a few steps, Gong Lixin frowned. Leaving the words ’there’s a woman’ behind, he rushed to the sixth floor. When they had entered the hotel lobby, he had heard the sound of people in the building. He didn’t want to meet these people, but he faintly heard the voice of a woman asking for help and immediately changed his mind.

Wasn’t it the person they were looking for also a woman? Therefore, they should spread out the net and verify the identity of tall the women they came in contact with.

Lin Wenbo and Song Haoran also figured out what he meant in an instant and immediately followed suit.
