Before her rebirth, Shangguan Wan misplaced her trust, which led to her tragic death. Reborn, she clears her vision and reclaims her heart. This time, those who owe her will pay back double. In thi...

Chapter 498 I seem to understand something

"How can a good person become something inhuman, half-ghost?" Han Lie said with disdain, and sarcastically said that this person had become inhuman.

Sure enough, after hearing these words, black blood vessel lines appeared on the stiff face of the person opposite. The black lines spread from the neck to the face, like black nematodes crawling from the neck to the eyes. The red eyes instantly turned black as if stained by ink.

Shangguan Wan narrowed her eyes, looking at those dark, pitch-black eyes, feeling indescribably strange. This was the first time she had seen eyes like that. She didn't know what had happened three years later, but judging by the situation, it might be what Han Lie and the others had experienced in their previous life. Now it seemed like this was a special case that had occurred after her death.

Shangguan Wan was quickly thinking about whether to capture this man alive, perhaps she could get some information from him that she didn't know. Judging from their appearance, they must be old acquaintances.

And they were definitely in a hostile state. Just by the name Han Lie had just shouted out with gritted teeth, it was clear that this person was no ordinary person. Shangguan Wan turned her head and looked at the eyes of Lone Eagle and the others, and she understood. They were all looking at Scorpion with righteous indignation. This further confirmed her thoughts.

Scorpion stood above and quickly looked at the woman standing in front of Han Lie. He suddenly felt a sense of fear from the bottom of his heart. It was a threat from the bones and even from the spirit. This was the only time he felt fear after becoming a zombie. It was not because she looked scary, but because the smell on her body made him scared.

The fact that it took so long meant that there was something in this woman that could resist him. Scorpion had regained his sanity, even his human thoughts, a long time ago, so he was now considering things. He didn't know Shangguan Wan's situation at the moment. From the fight just now, he knew that her movements and abilities were far superior to his own. However, he hadn't fully utilized his abilities, not to mention that they were at a disadvantage. If they fought, he might win. After all, the most important reason for his return was that he was not alone, except for Han Lie. Without him, he wouldn't have fled to another country, wouldn't have fallen into that person's hands, and wouldn't have ended up like this. The words "I don't recognize you, I'm not a ghost" just now really hit home.

However, he seems to have no heart now. Zombies have no heartbeat, even if they regain consciousness. They will always remain in this state of the living dead. Even their blood is in a coagulated state. It is impossible to resurrect them.

Scorpion was finally devoured by his own hatred and his rationality. When he looked at Han Lie, he thought of the suffering he had endured before. The black light in his hand rushed towards Han Lie. The moment he made a move, all the zombies rushed towards Shangguan Wan and Han Lie. Shangguan Wan looked at the somewhat peculiar team and felt that something was a little strange. When Scorpion was talking just now, the zombies all lowered their heads as if waiting for a lecture. The moment Scorpion made a move, they all raised their heads and looked towards Han Lie, rushing towards him.

Shangguan Wan suddenly understood what was wrong with this Scorpion. She had known from the beginning that he was not a spiritual zombie, so how did he make the zombies obey him? There was only one possibility, if it was not spiritual control, then it was submission, a relationship between superiors and subordinates between zombies, just like soldiers. Lone Eagle and the others obeyed orders just like Han Lie.

Shangguan Wan suddenly had a thought: could it be that people being infected with the virus was not a natural disaster, but a man-made disaster? They had always thought that the red rain took people's lives, but had they ever thought that this rain was deliberately created by someone else? After all, this red rain was something that no one could explain. If it was man-made, then would there be any clues to follow?

But Shangguan Wan didn't have time to think deeply about it now, because her attention had been attracted by the black light and shadow.

Scorpion stood a hundred meters away from Han Lie, his pale hand raised with a slightly stiff movement, clawing upward. His fingers spread apart, drawing a gray streak of light from the sky to his palm. It was a clearly visible lightning-type light. Han Lie's lightning ability was completely different from his own. Han Lie's lightning ability was merely a gray, circular halo, carrying immense explosive power, but this time, the lightning ability he saw was a thin, slender beam of light, the thickness of a tree, the thickness of a calf. It looked like he was attracting lightning, not using it himself.

Shangguan Wan, realizing the difference, looked at Scorpion with even greater vigilance. Her pupils shrank, and a scene appeared before her eyes. A gray light streaked across the sky like a wave of light, sweeping towards Han Lie and the others. The Red Eagle warriors at the edge didn't dodge and were completely engulfed by the gray light. The light and shadow swallowed them like a black hole, swallowing them up without a trace.

"Get out of the way!" Han Lie shouted, and quickly rushed forward to the Red Eagle member who was about to be swept by the light and shadow. He shot out a gray halo with his hands to confront the halo head-on.

When the two beams of light collided, there was an immediate explosion. Han Lie was slightly affected by the blast and took several steps back before stopping.
