“Ha ha~”
“Yue Xingze” smiled and asked curiously, “You just remembered him, how do you know I’m not him?”
At that moment, he still wore the same shy expression, his appearance unchanged, his voice the same, and his tone consistent. However, the numb and indifferent look in his eyes made him seem like a marionette—lifeless and thoughtless, entirely controlled by invisible strings.
Slowly, his skin began to change; the originally fair skin now revealed veins flowing with black liquid. The once bright eyes were now engulfed in darkness, and the faint shadows under his eyes made him appear quite haggard.
Most importantly, with these changes, his power had reached the peak of level eight.
“First answer me, where is he?”
Liu You'er emitted a faint white glow from her body, her consciousness heightened to the maximum as she remained vigilant of his every move while also keeping an eye on the restless monsters around them.
Yue Xingze leaned casually against the stone wall, effortlessly dispatching two monsters that lunged at him. With an air of boredom, he said, “He’s probably dead, right here.”
As he spoke, he nonchalantly pointed to Heart's location.
“You didn’t know where to go back then, but that fool ended up being captured by the fat guy and became a pawn in a formation. Later, he fell into slumber. I appeared and took care of that bunch of trash. Then some minor issues arose; I had already completely taken over this body. Who knew some idiot would say there was a new type of Zombie and sent over a pile of data? Turns out you are that Zombie; truly relentless.”
As he spoke, he cast a resentful glance at Liu You'er and continued, “So here we are again; you’re restless. That’s why I’m here to kill you and make him give up! So I can continue to control this body.”
With a splash.
As his words faded, several attacks were launched simultaneously, and black water surged toward Liu You'er like a rising tide.
Liu You'er was already prepared and had seen the fate of those two monsters, so she naturally wouldn't take it head-on. With Ziche by her side, she didn't have to worry about the cave collapsing. She grabbed Ziche with one hand and with the other hand, she struck upward, creating a one-meter-wide hole.
She pulled herself up to the edge of the hole and jumped in gracefully, completing the movement in less than 0.5 seconds.
At the same time, the area below was submerged by the black water.
She glanced at Ziche, estimated the duration of the battle, and lightly tapped his neck. He fainted and then disappeared from sight as Liu You'er stored him in her space.
Finishing within half an hour would prevent her from exhausting her Mental Power.
Yue Xingze quietly stared above, showing no signs of movement. He couldn't help but frown, thinking, "Did they escape?"
With that thought, a mocking smile appeared on his lips. He took a couple of steps forward and reached the hole that had been smashed open when a beam of white light struck toward him.
"This trap is just too foolish..."
He recalled the tall figure from Yue Xingze's memory, one that seemed capable of bearing everything, shook his head and thought, "With such poor judgment, you truly deserve to be humiliated."
A black membrane suddenly appeared around him, directly engulfing that force—simple and uninteresting.
"Bang."
His eyes widened in surprise as a sharp pain surged from the front, accompanied by the dazzling White Lightning, unavoidable and overwhelming.
It turned out that Liu You'er had concealed himself within that force; the real attack was not the lightning itself, but the person hidden within it. The reason for choosing that position to strike was because he knew that his opponent would certainly be on guard at that moment.
If the opponent acted according to his expectations, then given his proud demeanor and personality, he would surely let his guard down. This was precisely the moment to attack.
"Thud."
A punch landed squarely on his Heart, and he felt a wave of suffocation wash over him. He then slid for dozens of meters, crashing through two stone walls before finally coming to a stop, his internal organs twisted together as he continuously spat blood.
Yet there was no trace of dissatisfaction in his eyes; instead, he pondered seriously, "So you’ve reached Ninth Level. It seems you never believed in me from the start; even your level was a lie. But I want to know, I know him best—there shouldn’t be any flaws. How could you discern it?"
In high-level combat, one strike could be fatal. Liu You'er looked at Yue Xingze, who had completely lost his ability to move, and slowly approached him. "No flaws are the biggest flaw."
"Huh?"
Yue Xingze was momentarily puzzled.
"You are meticulous—meticulous to the point of tone, hairstyle, personality, and scent—but there is one thing you cannot control."
"Oh?"
"With his personality, having endured two years of apocalypse alone, struggling and suffering, would he really still have such a clean look in his eyes?"
“Yue Xingze” fell silent for a moment and then smiled, saying, “Oh, fine, I take back what I said about his poor judgment.”
“?”
Liu You'er frowned slightly, but it was clear that the other party had no intention of explaining.
“Alright, just kill me~ By the way, my name is Yue Chen.”
Liu You'er looked at his radiant smile and straightened up, saying, “So you are the brother he has always longed for.”
Yue Chen was taken aback and frowned, asking, “What?”
Unfortunately, Liu You'er only showed a perplexed expression, one that seemed to convey pity or helplessness, as if she might have misjudged him. In any case, she ignored him and turned to leave.
“Come back! Pfft.”
He spat out another mouthful of black blood and stared intently at the figure that had already vanished. The surrounding monsters seemed to sense his injury and surrounded him, baring their teeth and drooling onto the ground, creating a foul stench.
Yue Chen appeared completely oblivious to them as he sat quietly in thought. He simply could not understand when Yue Xingze had gotten a brother.
“Gurgle~”
With a growl from one of the monsters, five or six of them surged forward. Yet Yue Chen seemed entirely unaware of their approach. Just a second before being bitten, his eyes widened in disbelief for a moment, his expression frozen as he murmured, “I see now; I forgot that I have already died once.”
"Ahhh~"
The monsters let out terrible screams, writhing on the ground, bubbling all over, and foaming at the mouth, looking as if they were poisoned.
A figure stood in front of Yue Chen, glanced at his condition, and said coldly, "I killed her for you."
Yue Chen smiled and shook his head, saying, "Forget it, let's go. I'm done playing."
The man seemed to want to say something else, but seeing Yue Chen like this, he fell silent and led him away.
Three years ago at A City Base
Soldier A: "That kid is strange; he must be crazy. He keeps saying he and his brother are talking to each other."
Soldier B: "Who cares? As long as he isn't infected, it's fine. Look, we even get double rations; how great is that?"
Soldier A: Right~ Hahaha.
Not far away, a small figure walked alone, timidly saying, "Brother, the apocalypse is so scary. I heard we have to go outside for missions. I feel like I definitely won't survive."
After a moment, he suddenly changed his demeanor, no longer timid. Standing tall, he comforted, "Don't worry. I'll go on the mission; you just stay at the base. Don't worry; I will protect you..."
