Chapter 118: 【118】The Dead World

"Can we go back now?"

After hearing Yu Xian's analysis, Zhang Shou immediately asked the question he was most concerned about.

He was afraid he wouldn't be able to go back, and it would be fine if it was just him, but if he dragged Yu Xian down with him and they couldn't go back either, he would definitely feel guilty for the rest of his life.

Yu Xian smiled and said, "Since we could come, we can naturally go back, but there's no rush. Since we're already here, we might as well investigate why the Zombies here are always teleported to Twin West Mountain."

"We can go back, that's good, that's good."

Zhang Shou patted his chest and breathed a sigh of relief.

At this moment, Yu Xian's mind moved, and the two Perfect Creatures still in the spatial bubble immediately descended from the sky. He said, "Kill all the Zombies around here. Don't stop killing until I give the order!"

The two Perfect Creatures immediately began to act in silence, and wherever they went, Zombies were killed one after another.

The highest level of Zombie here was only Sparrow Level, while both Perfect Creatures were Dragon-level, so there was no suspense in the battle at all.

"Holy crap, Xian Yu, you've been secretly getting stronger behind our backs again."

When Zhang Shou saw this scene, his eyes were about to pop out of their sockets, and he couldn't help but complain.

He had been working very hard during this time, but he had only leveled up two levels and learned two skills without a teacher.

But compared to Yu Xian's cheating-like speed of getting stronger, he was completely the younger brother among younger brothers, the ultimate younger brother!

"When did you get the illusion that you could catch up to me?"

Yu Xian looked at Zhang Shou with a half-smile and directly retorted.

Zhang Shou's eyes widened and his mouth opened, but in the end, he had nothing to say, after all, the facts were right in front of him, anything he said would just be a sophistry.

He looked at the fallen Zombies around him and changed the subject, saying, "There are too many Zombies in this place, and... their clothes are too ordinary, as if they just turned into Zombies after dying as ordinary people."

"Is it possible... that they were ordinary people, and they only became Zombies after death?"

Yu Xian looked at the Zombies waking up from underground and said faintly.

These Zombies were ragged, but from the style of their clothes, it could be seen that they were probably not special extraordinary beings when they were alive, but just ordinary civilians.

They only underwent corpse transformation after death due to the influence of corpse qi.

"Let's go, let's take a look around first!"

Yu Xian said to Zhang Shou at this moment, then ordered the two Perfect Creatures to clear the way, one in front and one behind.

The two walked on the black land, and what met their eyes was desolation, not a single tree or blade of grass could be seen, only a continuous stream of Zombies waking up from underground, and then being easily killed by the Perfect Creatures.

In Yu Xian's mind, this space was very chaotic. The model formed by the Super Olfactory Sense plus the Super Brain was a blank space, as if this place shouldn't exist at all.

Only when Zombies drilled out from underground would models of individual Zombies appear in his mind.

These Zombies smelled too bad, so in the end, he simply blocked out the corpse stench, and thus there were even more blank spaces in his mind.

Half an hour later.

Yu Xian and Zhang Shou stopped and saw a strange tree in the distance.

There were about fifty corpses hanging on this tree. These corpses sensed the aura of the two people and were twisting crazily like worms, but they were completely unable to break free from the ropes tied around their necks.

"Xian Yu, look at the Zombie over there."

Zhang Shou said softly to Yu Xian at this moment, pointing to the third corpse hanging on the tree as he spoke.

Yu Xian looked over and found that the Zombie was actually carrying a tattered briefcase.

He immediately manipulated the silver thread with his finger to extend it, quickly cut the rope on the briefcase, and then brought the briefcase back.

This Zombie had deliberately tied the briefcase tightly to its body with a rope, perhaps there was very important information in the briefcase.

Yu Xian did not touch the briefcase, but opened it with the silver thread. As expected, there were many old documents inside. He took out these documents and examined them one by one, his brows gradually furrowing.

"What's wrong?"

Zhang Shou asked curiously.

Yu Xian replied, "Look, it's all in Chinese."

"What's wrong with Chinese? Isn't this good?"

Zhang Shou took out gloves from his storage ring and put them on, took the documents, glanced at them, and then said.

Yu Xian looked at Zhang Shou and asked, "What if... we are actually no longer on Earth, no longer in our original world?"

"How is that possible!"

Zhang Shou said in shock.

Yu Xian looked at the documents and sighed, "I also hope it's impossible, but all the evidence shows me that this is not our original world. At least... have you ever heard of the Yanlong Empire?"

As he spoke, he pointed to the seal on the document.

Yanlong Empire Research Institute Number Nine!

Zhang Shou looked at the words on the seal, his eyes wide. It took him a while to say in surprise, "So we've transmigrated now?"

"Yes, we've come to a... dead world!"

Yu Xian looked at the documents and nodded solemnly.

Yu Xian had actually read the Corpse Qi Expansion Theory a long time ago, but he scoffed at it, after all, there were so many ability users, there would always be a way to solve mere corpse qi.

But now he seemed to have come to a world where the Corpse Qi Expansion Theory was perfectly fulfilled. The concentration of corpse qi in this world was already very, very high. Although it hadn't reached fifty percent, it was at least thirty percent.

This was already a very fatal concentration for living beings.

Zhang Shou was fine in this world because his body did not accept the invasion of any special abilities, and the reason why Yu Xian was fine was because he was a Vampire. Theoretically, he was actually similar to Zombies, both belonging to the Undead type of creatures.

The problem was that their being fine didn't mean other creatures were fine.

Other creatures could not survive in such a high concentration of corpse qi. Even if they were alive, they would gradually be infected with corpse poison and eventually become Zombies.

"Could it be that the end of this world is the future end of our world?"

Yu Xian looked at the documents and couldn't help but guess in his heart.

These documents explained the process of corpse qi expansion in detail and mentioned the final fate of a large number of extraordinary beings.

Powerful extraordinary beings, unable to stay in this world, eventually fled to the Abyss. Basically, they all went and never returned. After losing the protection of the strong, the weak became food for the Zombies.

Even if they were not attacked by Zombies, in a high-concentration corpse qi environment, people would gradually become radical, irritable, violent, and their minds would be full of negative thoughts.

Finally, they would even kill each other and then all turn into Zombies.

What was terrifying was that corpse qi was unsolvable. As long as there were Zombies, corpse qi would definitely be produced. The more Zombies were killed, the more corpse qi would be released.

Not kill them?

If they were not killed, the Zombies would become stronger and stronger, and their harmfulness would become greater and greater.

By the time it was impossible not to kill them, once a Zombie died, the amount of corpse qi released from its body would actually be even greater.

It seemed that as long as the forbidden fruit appeared, as long as someone wanted to become a Zombie, then this outcome was an inevitable outcome, and there was no way to change it at all.
