At the riverbank
As Liu Yue arrived, he was met with a hellish scene; orcs were rampaging through the crowd, killing indiscriminately, and blood was everywhere.
His eyes turned red as he took in the sight, unable to believe that all of this was due to his sister. What had she experienced during the two years he had been unconscious?
Clenching his fists, he suddenly heard a scream and hurried in that direction. He saw a figure lift an orc and tear it in half before throwing the pieces to the ground. Then, the figure crouched down to eat something. That silhouette...
"Sis...?"
The figure paused, silently turned around, covered in blood, with vacant eyes, yet he recognized her effortlessly.
"How could it be you?!"
Suddenly, he hesitated and asked, "What happened to your eyes?"
Unfortunately, she offered no response. She stood up quietly and continued eating the crimson object in her hands as she walked past him.
Upon closer inspection, he realized it was a human heart!
"Don't go!"
He grabbed her arm as she attempted to leave. A flash of silver light flickered on her neck, resting quietly on her blood-stained pale skin, causing his pupils to dilate involuntarily. The next moment, pain shot through his abdomen as he was kicked away, spitting out blood.
Yet he did not cry out in pain; his expression froze as he stared at the rigid face of the person before him, his gaze fixated on the small pendant around her neck.
Liu You'er seemed to sense his gaze on her necklace. She paused for a moment, tucked the pendant back into her clothing to hide it, patted her clothes as if calming herself down, then looked at him warily, contemplating whether to kill him or not.
"That necklace... how did it end up with you? I thought I gave it to my sister?"
However, his words received no response.
"Wait, when did I buy this?"
His mind suddenly felt like it had turned to mush. He looked at his hands, blinked, and suddenly realized they were pale and thin, resembling a Zombie, but they were clearly his hands because there was a small black mole between his index finger and thumb.
What is happening? Why have I turned into a Zombie? How am I human again now?
"Uh..."
A sudden sharp pain shot through his head, and scenes flashed before his eyes—so real yet so unfamiliar.
"Sis... in the future, I... will protect... you."
"Why didn't you help me wash that Newcomer? Why not just eat her?"
"Huh? Where did Sis go?"
"Ah~"
Strange words echoed in his mind.
Walls, bombs, shattering.
"Ah ah ah~"
A painful cry erupted from his throat, quickly spreading throughout the oasis.
"Will there still be any human cells left in his brain?"
"Give it a try."
"Monster."
"Failure."
"Failure."
"After thousands of attempts, I finally succeeded."
"Starting memory implantation."
"Snap."
The screen went completely dark. Liu Yue finally stopped banging his head and collapsed to the ground, squinting at the woman who was staring directly at him with a whip in her hand. He weakly moved his lips as if to say something, then tiredly closed his eyes.
"Yue Yue!"
Liu Xinxuan rushed over upon hearing Liu Yue's voice and saw this scene. Anger surged within him as he noticed Liu Yue's head covered in blood. Liu You'er still held the electric whip, gritting her teeth and saying, "Kill! Kill her!!!"
The piercing sound successfully diverted Liu You'er's attention. She turned around to see seven beastmen charging at her, while Liu Xinxuan controlled the plants to attack. Next to her stood the Serpent Woman, who did not seem inclined to attack.
"Crackle."
"Bang."
"Thud."
Beastmen rarely possessed abilities; their greatest asset was the gene that fused them with animals. As their genes evolved, they could transform, gain strength, and even develop antibodies against abilities.
Right now, there is a Tiger Man whose physique perfectly counters the lightning.
Although this mutated lightning causes him great pain, it is precisely because of his existence that the other beastmen can successfully leave several deep marks on Liu You'er under cover.
"Huff, huff."
In just half an hour, the seven of them are exhausted, but Liu You'er is stirred up with ferocity, fighting harder and harder, completely unaware of fatigue.
"Bang."
The Tiger Man was just a moment too slow, and countless bolts of lightning struck towards him. With no choice, he could only brace himself, but this time seemed different.
"Boom."
At this moment, it is most appropriate to describe him as turning to ashes; that Tiger Man was completely reduced to dust.
Without a shield, the ensuing scene was undoubtedly a one-sided massacre.
Liu Xinxuan was holding Liu Yue at this time, her eyes filled with tenderness. When she looked up again, there was madness in her gaze.
"Everyone get back!"
Those in the battle hurriedly moved aside upon hearing her words. One person was a moment too slow, and his neck was instantly snapped. At the same time, countless blades of grass grew wildly, tightly entangling Liu You'er.
The Lizard Man guessed what she was about to do but was a moment too late. He quickly looked up and said, "No, I haven't—"
Immediately after, he became stiff all over, unable to move or think, like a stone statue.
Liu You'er looked up and saw the Serpent Woman facing her, seemingly doing something unknown.
"Ha~"
Only two people remained alive. Seeing Liu You'er motionless, they breathed a sigh of relief and covered their eyes, saying, "Serpent Woman, are you done?"
"Mm, come here~"
She replied, and the two dared to turn around. Looking at the unmoving Lizardman and Liu You'er, they asked, "What about the Lizardman?"
They heard Serpent Woman say, "Can't save him, just kill him~"
"Hiss~"
As Serpent Woman extended her tongue, the Lizardman shattered into pieces.
The two chuckled but then noticed a change in Serpent Woman's expression. One of them, more alert, quickly dodged, while the other turned in confusion and saw a hand swiftly plunge into his Heart.
"Why didn't you...?"
"Thud~"
Blood sprayed as the Heart was ripped out, and he fell to the ground stiffly.
"Ah~ Serpent Woman, no, I still..."
Then, the one who had dodged fell silent, becoming like the Lizardman.
"Ha~"
Serpent Woman looked at the frozen Liu You'er in front of her and sighed in relief, saying, "That scared me. I was careless and didn't even..."
In the next moment, she saw Liu You'er tilt her head in confusion, and then another stone sculpture was kicked to pieces by Liu You'er. Debris scattered everywhere, and then a sharp pain shot through her eyes, plunging her into darkness.
"Ah~ My eyes~"
The Serpent Woman cried out in pain, covering her eyes as blood flowed continuously from the gaps between her fingers. Her snake hair writhed in agony, but unfortunately, the eyeballs on the ground stared at her helplessly.
Liu Xinxuan watched this scene, a flicker of fear crossing her mind. According to her previous data analysis, she shouldn't be that strong. What was happening?
"Smack~"
It seemed that the Serpent Woman was too loud; Liu You'er lashed out with an electric whip towards her neck, and finally, the world fell silent. Then, she glanced at Liu Xinxuan, whose hands were trembling involuntarily. Seeing no immediate danger, Liu You'er turned and walked away.
The feeling of being ignored washed over Liu Xinxuan again, but when she looked at Liu Yue, she decided to leave as well, planning to report this incident to W. She didn't notice that Liu You'er was quietly watching her from behind a tree.
B City Base
Chuze stood at the highest point of the base in military uniform, holding a small metal box in his hand. The roar of helicopters filled the air.
"Come back safely!" Zhao Ling shouted to Chuze.
He nodded and went up.
