A series of terrified screams echoed from the front, accompanied by beastly roars and the sounds of violent destruction.
Faint glimmers of fire seemed to illuminate the tragedy ahead.
The once quiet streets of Nuuk were now crowded with people fleeing into the distance, a scene almost unimaginable for such a scale of chaos.
At that moment, a shadow darted between rooftops and eaves, avoiding the panicked crowd below and racing toward the center of the turmoil.
"Ah!" A figure fell from the sky, landing in front of the shadow and slightly halting its advance.
It was a body, missing its upper half, with entrails scattered across the ground!
Clearly thrown through the air by some immense force, it had landed quite a distance away.
"This can't be right. It must be... hmm?! The virus is still highly active! How is that possible?" Crouching down to examine the corpse, Yang Xiaoyou prepared to rise and continue forward when he was horrified to see that the severed arm twitched nervously. Although there were no signs of awakening, how could a body in such a state still react? If this was a killing machine designed for slaughter, it shouldn't carry such a virus!
"Last time in the warehouse, that temporary half-finished product managed to suppress the virus's activity. Even those Lickers with exposed skin could be contained! They shouldn't have gotten this far!" Yang Xiaoyou's face darkened as he looked up, his expression grim.
All along, during the virus leak incidents, even the organization itself had been a victim. The continuous accidents had significantly impacted them; constant compromises and payouts had drained their resources. Otherwise, their previous power would have been even more terrifying!
Moreover, any organization driven by profit would not want such a highly contagious virus to emerge. They had always sought to exploit the virus's characteristics while simultaneously trying to weaken its infectiousness.
If they had managed it before, why was it failing here now?!
The only explanation left was that this group of reckless fellows had secretly used a highly infectious viral strain!
In the Memory Fragments, the fifteen members of the Dark Organization left a deep impression on Yang Xiaoyou, as they were the ones who relentlessly pursued him, serving as a sharp blade in the hands of the organization.
However, it seemed that due to some factional relationships within the organization, the Dark Organization often engaged in actions that could jeopardize its own interests, even while enjoying a relatively high degree of freedom. This time, their pursuit of him was clearly a private operation!
The near-total annihilation of the Elite members from the Dark Organization was a significant blow to its combat division. The lower-tier members would likely be scattered and reassigned to other departments, marking this operation as quite successful in terms of results.
Yet, Yang Xiaoyou never expected that in the final moments, they would dare to act so decisively! They even resorted to such forbidden methods!
Why did various countries adopt a tacit attitude despite knowing that the organization was the creator of this virus? It was because they understood that the organization would not recklessly use these methods, distinguishing it greatly from traditional Terrorist Organizations.
If those viruses were indeed deliberately manufactured by the organization, no matter how powerful it was, countries would undoubtedly unite at all costs to eradicate it, rather than fearing that it might act out of desperation. Their stance remained ambiguous.
"Haha, very good! I see your determination! You are willing to go to such lengths just for revenge!" Faced with such unpredictable bastards, Yang Xiaoyou felt a surge of anger.
At the same time, he began to understand their mindset. They had come out solely for revenge, and after receiving a warning from someone, they likely became alert and left this contingency plan. If they arrived on time, they could suppress things again; but if something unexpected happened, they intended for everyone in Nuuk to pay the price!
Moreover, they were well aware of the current environment surrounding the organization. Because various countries understood that the organization's essence was not Destruction, this incident would be instinctively viewed as unintentional. They were probably more concerned with how to extract greater compensation and negotiate better terms.
After all, while Greenland is vast, its meager capital has a population of only about fifty thousand. Recently, Greenland had been trying to gain ** from the Kingdom of Denmark. After the outbreak of the virus, Denmark now had sufficient reason to retake control here; any grievances would only be symbolically voiced—who would bother getting involved?
Due to the H Virus's rapid spread akin to rolling out a carpet, it was already too late to stop it now.
Furthermore, although Nuuk is near the sea, the ice floes at its harbor had yet to break up, making escape impossible!
"It’s currently off-season for tourism; the total population won’t exceed fifty thousand. Even for the most virulent virus, given the density of people here, forming the first wave of a Zombie Tide should still take about seven hours. Hades, since I brought you back from your grave, let me personally send you back," Yang Xiaoyou murmured sadly as he looked up at the fiery location.
"Apologies, please grant peace to the deceased and refrain from causing a disturbance." This was what Yang Xiaoyou had said upon first meeting Hades when he was still a Gravekeeper.
It was precisely because he had long dealt with the dead that although he appeared indifferent to death on the surface, he deeply craved communication with others. Among the Hive Core Members, he was one of the few without an inherent arrogance; though not skilled in communication, he did not put on airs either.
It was a presence that anyone could trust to guard their back.
As Yang Xiaoyou slowly walked into the street beside several burning buildings, the thick scent of blood filled the air. After brushing past a few panicked survivors, she once again encountered Hades.
Although both his appearance and physique had undergone a dramatic transformation, Yang Xiaoyou still recognized him at a glance.
Seeing the terrifying beast standing in the middle of the street, viciously gnawing on a half-eaten corpse and splattering blood everywhere, Yang Xiaoyou closed her eyes and let out a sigh from her heart.
"Roar!" Hades, who was devouring the corpse in his hands, seemed to sense something. He turned his grotesquely deformed face toward Yang Xiaoyou and then let out a furious roar.
After covering his head and whimpering in a harsh, raspy voice for a moment, he charged off in another direction, seemingly retaining a faint trace of awareness from his former life, much like the defective creature they had encountered in the warehouse last time.
Unfortunately, Yang Xiaoyou, well aware of the virus's characteristics, understood that even with pure blood in her hands, it was impossible to awaken a brain that had been completely corroded by the virus.
The only outcome awaiting him was one.
