Wu Chengyue and Xiao Yunlong arrived at the building, both showed grim looks upon hearing the sounds from the building.
“He has started eating people!” Wu Chengyue swiftly flashed into the building while speaking.
He knew that the superpowered people who were infected by the virus would become monsters once their energies failed to suppress the virus. Their internal organs and digestive system would also change.
They would lose interest in normal food, and start to have appetites toward flesh and blood of living human beings.
When Wu Chengyue and Xiao Yunlong rushed into the building, they saw quite some fresh blood splashed on the wall and corridor, as they had expected. They two had a very bad feeling as they followed the blood at an even quicker speed.
At that moment, Yang Chao was holding the back of a woman’s neck in his widely cracked mouth, dragging her and quickly running on all fours.
Along with his swift moves, the woman’s body was swinging in the air like a piece of cloth. When Yang Chao turned around corners, her body bumped against the walls from time to time. However, she could no longer utter screams in pain, because she had stopped breathing.
Yang Chao was biting the back of her neck, and his mouth was filled with blood.
After dragging the woman upstairs, he felt that Wu Chengyue and Xiao Yunlong wouldn’t catch up with him soon. So, he brought her to an empty area and began tearing her clothes. Soon, the woman’s clothes were all ripped off.
He stripped the woman, then violently pinched her breasts with his distorted hands. Suddenly, he clenched his fingers and tore off the woman’s breasts. He put the pair of breasts into his mouth and began chewing loudly, the blood dying his teeth and claws red.
He quickly chewed and swallowed the breasts, then abruptly glanced back at the stairs. After that, he quickly turned around and ran.
But, before he made it to two meters, a wall suddenly extended out from the wall next to him and blocked his way. However, he didn’t really care about that wall. He paused briefly, then swung an arm and punched at it.
With his current strength, he was able to create a hole on a normal wall with a punch. Nevertheless, the wall before him wasn’t just an ordinary wall, because his punch failed to even leave a crack on it.
“How dare you eat people in the base! Yang Chao, you lunatic!” Zou Shihui’s voice was heard.
“Roar!” Yang Chao turned to try and run on the other side, but then found that the way behind him was blocked too.
He turned and turned, laughing with a twisted voice, “Hehehe, women’s breasts taste the best… You can all try…”
Before he could finish talking, large amounts of steel sticks suddenly shot out of the surrounding walls straight toward him. He ran around in that narrow space like, but didn’t manage to dodge all the steel sticks and let a few finger-thick, one-meter-long sticks pierce through his body.
“Roar!” He roared agitatedly, then stopped running and gripped a stick with both hands, trying to pull it out. Soon, the stick was pulled out along with blood.
As he turned to reached his hands to another steel stick, another steel stick suddenly punctured his head.
He froze, his hands on a stick which was stuck in his body. Then, he popped his eyes and slowly fell to the ground.
The two extra walls slowly drew backward. From behind one of those walls, Wu Chengyue, Zou Shihui, and Xiao Yunlong walked toward Yang Chao who was lying on the ground with a stick stuck in its head.
Xiao Yunlong walked up to Yang Chao the first and alertly kicked his body. After confirming the latter’s death, he turned to say to the others, “He’s dead. But, he murdered a woman before death. How are we gonna deal with him now?”
Wu Chengyue looked at Zou Shihui and said, “Zou, you go hunt down all his accomplices, and I’ll comfort the people.”
Zou Shihui nodded. He glanced at Yang Chao and sighed in relief, then turned and left.
“Cut off his head,” said Wu Chengyue to Xiao Yunlong.
Xiao Yunlong waved a hand. Following his move, all the steel sticks gathered together and merged into one, then melted into a sphere.
He raised one hand in the air to control the steel sphere while drawing lines toward it with the other. Along with his movements, the steel sphere was turned into a sharp blade, with a beam of light flashing across it.
After that, Xiao Yunlong pressed both hands downward, and next, the steel blade fell on Yang Chao’s body. With a loud ‘bang’, his head was cut off, and a stream of blood gushed out of the broken neck.
In the meanwhile, Wu Chengyue walked to the dead woman’s body and checked it, “She’s infected. We don’t know if she’ll turn into a zombie. Keep it well for now. We’ll be observing it later.”
“Yes, sir!”
At that moment, Xiao Yunlong pointed at Yang Chao’s head and asked, “Should we take out the nucleus in it?”
Wu Chengyue nodded and said, “Take it out. He’s a level-seven after all.”
Hearing that, Xiao Yunlong controlled the steel blade and cut Yang Chao’s head, then picked up a steel stick to stir his brain. Soon, a nucleus fell out.
He picked up the nucleus and wiped it on Yang Chao’s ragged coat, then stood up and turned to hand it to Wu Chengyue.
“Keep it. You killed him, so this nucleus surely belongs to you,” Wu Chengyue didn’t take it over as he spoke while turning and leaving. “Bring the two corpses down,” he then added.
“Yes, sir!” The soldiers around responded immediately.
Before coming up, they knew that a victim was attacked and brought upstairs by Yang Chao, so they had prepared white cloth and a stretcher. They covered that female corpse with a white cloth, then tied it up with ropes. After that, they began carrying the two corpses downstairs.
Xiao Yunlong held the nucleus and glanced at Yang Chao’s headless body, then followed behind Wu Chengyue. While walking downstairs, Wu Chengyue assigned Xiao Yunlong with some clean-up tasks, then began comforting those panicked people who had gathered around the building.
If Lin Qiao were staying on the outside, she would certainly be able to sense Yang Chao’s death the moment it happened. However, she was still in her space at the moment, teaching Viney how to walk.
Yes, she was teaching Viney how to walk.
Viney had six legs, each as thick as Lin Qiao’s thumb; they were about half a meter long, white and tender, looking rather cute.
However, once she got on her feet, she would forget how to control her little root legs. She could smoothly control every single one of the hair-like vines on her head, but not her root legs.
When walking, she wouldn’t even know which leg to move first. Sometimes, she would move two or three legs together in different directions, and then her legs would tangle together and become a mess.
And then… she would fall again!
