"Get lost."
Lu Feng looked at the trembling figure that still stubbornly blocked his path, glaring at the "Dumpling" he was holding.
This Zombie had already reached level seven. Its appearance was very close to that of a human, and its skin was no longer decayed. Although it was obvious that it was a Zombie, its brain had gradually become more active, possessing an intelligence comparable to that of a ten-year-old child. Coupled with the irresistibly enticing smell of the Dumpling, it managed to withstand his pressure.
"Oh?"
Lu Feng brought the Dumpling closer to his face, observing the creature whose face was scrunched up in distress yet remained silent. He felt as if a feather had lightly brushed against his heart, and his tone softened slightly.
"Scared?"
"No, I just feel like throwing up from what you're holding... Can I hold it or carry it on my back? My brother always did that for me~"
"..."
Lu Feng looked at the Dumpling's big, watery eyes filled with sorrow and expectation, and silently set it down while continuing to hold the Dumpling.
"Who cares about you."
He took a step toward the Zombie, intending to end this quickly, but unexpectedly—
"Roar!"
Several Zombie roars echoed as four more Seventh-Level Zombies appeared, surrounding them in the center with a look of brutality in their eyes.
"Oh? No wonder, it turns out there are helpers."
Lu Feng's cold tone made all the Zombies around him shudder. Although the murderous intent was chilling to the bone, they did not retreat.
Five against one, they should not lose; after all, he was only at the mid-level of the seventh rank... just that.
"Hey, Dumpling, have you ever been on a roller coaster?"
"What... what is that?"
Dumpling's gaze was completely captivated by the restless High-Level Zombies, his voice trembling.
"That... is like this!"
"Roar!"
At the same time, the Zombies surged forward, and in an instant, Dumpling was thrown into the air over ten meters high with a scream.
"Pfft."
Lu Feng moved first, his body now indistinguishable from the Zombies. His sharp claws pierced directly through the most vulnerable spot of the Zombie in front of him.
The eyes!
With a powerful kick, the Zombie's corpse was sent flying, creating an opening in the encirclement. He then swiftly turned and grabbed the Zombie to his left, kicking hard at its leg.
"Crack!"
The sound of a broken bone echoed as it immediately collapsed to the ground. Before it could get back up, he heard...
With a thud,
it could no longer stand up because its head had been crushed under Lu Feng's foot.
He leaped upward, using the momentum to grab the screaming "Dumpling" with his left hand while releasing a cloud of black energy with his right, temporarily halting the movements of the remaining three Zombies.
"Is it fun?"
"Dumpling," hearing the familiar voice, opened its eyes and, realizing it was unharmed, nodded excitedly yet fearfully.
The remaining three Zombies were quick to react; seeing their attack miss, they immediately exchanged glances and continued their assault.
One of the Zombies activated its Ability, launching three fiery red flames simultaneously at Lu Feng. At the same time, another one unleashed a wood-based Ability, causing the grass beneath Lu Feng's feet to entwine around his legs and spread toward the "Dumpling" he was holding.
"Just as I thought! Another throw!"
The last Zombie revealed a cunning smile.
Whoosh!
Dozens of sharp ice spikes shot toward the airborne Dumpling from different directions at incredible speed, leaving no way to evade.
Roar!
Lu Feng's body transformed again as energy surged wildly, causing his body to develop faint cracks from the strain.
Puff puff puff~
The sound of Ice Arrows piercing flesh continued incessantly. Dumpling remained curled up with closed eyes, hiding in that not-so-warm but reassuring embrace.
"Drip, drip."
Lu Feng was now kneeling on one knee, his body covered in Ice Arrows like a porcupine, blood dripping onto the stunned face of Baozi.
Lu Feng glanced at the little person in his arms and gently placed the dazed figure on the ground.
"I underestimated you all, huh~"
He stumbled slightly as he turned around, a cold and dark aura continuously emanating from Lu Feng's body.
The three Zombies had no time to react before being engulfed by darkness, fearfully unleashing their Abilities, but unfortunately, none hit their target.
"Roar~"
The wails from several Seventh-Level Zombies successfully scared off the nearby Zombies drawn by the scent, to say they were terrified would be an understatement.
"Fresh blood, power! Slaughter!!!"
At this moment, Lu Feng did not know who he was or where he was; he only knew that those in front of him were the ones who had hurt him, and he wanted to tear them all apart!
"Thud."
The Core was extracted.
"Rip."
The limbs were torn apart.
"Uncle... Uncle?"
The weak, childlike voice successfully interrupted Lu Feng's actions.
Who?
He crouched there, looking toward the source of the sound with a beast-like gaze, and discovered it was a child with no capacity for aggression, but possessing a pure Core.
"It smells so good."
He was entranced by the scent of fresh blood and flesh in the air. Just as he was about to attack, he saw the "food" pounce toward him and hug him tightly.
"Woo woo woo, Uncle, are you okay? Don't scare me! Why aren't you speaking? Woo woo woo woo woo!"
Tears streamed down Lu Feng's neck, the warm tears causing him to momentarily lose focus.
Crying, so heartbroken.
"Hurry up and get on! Hurry!!!"
"Okay, stay alive."
Strange yet familiar memories flooded into his mind; no, it should be said they were being restored. They were vividly clear, yet felt like events from a past century.
Once upon a time, he had cried in despair like this when he lost that person. He only remembered seeking revenge but almost forgot the reason...
Rationality slowly returned as he looked at his hands, the black nails several centimeters long, covered in flesh and blood, surrounded by chunks of meat and hollowed-out skulls, with not a single living creature in sight.
Except for the child who was crying in his arms.
"Sure enough, using all my strength leads to losing control..."
Frowning, he realized he couldn't revert back. It seemed he would need to take a few days to recover, but...
"Aren't you scared?"
"Huh?"
"Dumpling," the child said, tears streaming down his face. Hearing this, he looked at Lu Feng in confusion and took a moment to react.
"Ah! Uncle, how did you turn into a Zombie!"
"...Keep pretending."
Lu Feng remained silent, quietly watching "Dumpling," signaling him to continue his story.
Seeing that he had been seen through, "Dumpling" shyly said, "I couldn't sleep the night before last and accidentally saw you fighting with a Zombie~"
Upon hearing this from the little one, Lu Feng calmly asked, "Then why didn't you run away?"
"Dumpling" thought for a long time and replied, "Because you were always protecting me~ Hehe~"
With an innocent tone and a pure face, the sunlight shone just right at that moment.
Lu Feng's pupils slightly dilated as he lowered his gaze, lost in thought. After a while, he silently stood up and picked up the "Dumpling."
"Dumpling, what is your name?"
"Wow! Uncle, you said before that only friends share their names. Are you trying to be my friend now?!"
"...I just find it inconvenient to call you by that."
"Hehe~ Even adults' lies can make their noses grow!"
"You're so noisy!"
At this moment, Dumpling was in a good mood and didn't mind Lu Feng shouting at him. He proudly exclaimed, "Ning Ziche! My name is Ning Ziche!!! Hahaha~"
"Ziche."
Lu Feng softly repeated the name.
"Okay, Ziche, I'll take you to find your brother."
Then, let's go back to the human world and live well.
However, he did not say the latter part out loud.
