Chapter 331 Green Liquid
Seeing that Yue Zongyang had lost the ability to move, the Zombie King slowly lowered the scythe in his hand.
"Phew~"
He exhaled and walked forward, slightly out of breath.
"Tap, tap, tap..."
Soon, he walked up to Yue Zongyang.
The Zombie King looked down at his once most respected teacher, now reduced to such a wretched state, and his anger gradually subsided, replaced by a growing calm.
He began to speak.
"Yue Zongyang, even if you forcibly increased your strength through other means, you are still no match for Number 1..."
As the words fell, Yue Zongyang couldn't help but think of that man from the past.
After the initial success of the gene modification, he spent a lot of manpower, material resources and financial resources to bring over the No. 1 experimental subject.
It can be said that, over the years, Number 1 has been the most physically fit human being he has ever seen.
This is precisely why Subject 1 became the most successful experimental subject in the genetic modification project...
When Yue Zongyang recalled the man's face again, he couldn't help but smile bitterly.
He muttered a sentence to himself.
"Sigh, yes, if Number 1 could have come back, things would probably be very different today..."
Just as he was thinking this, the zombie king's voice came from the side.
"Yue Zongyang, do you have any regrets? Do you blame Number One for not coming back to assist you?"
As the words fell, Yue Zongyang weakly raised his head, quietly waiting for what was to come.
At this point, the outcome was already decided, and the zombie king was no longer in a hurry to kill the enemy in front of him.
He wanted Yue Zongyang to die knowing why.
He casually pulled over a chair, sat down, and continued speaking.
"I'm telling you, Number 1 should be up there not far away right now."
"It's not that he doesn't want to come, it's just that he has no way to get here..."
After hearing this, Yue Zongyang immediately understood.
No wonder... no wonder we haven't seen Number 1 yet.
He was actually being held back by the zombie king...
The Zombie King was quite satisfied with Yue Zongyang's bitter expression.
He continued his explanation.
"Number 1 is indeed very strong, even to the point that I am somewhat wary, but what good is it? He is, after all, just one person."
"For him to kill all my subordinates outside by himself is nothing short of a pipe dream!"
"Most importantly, as long as he dares to step into this place, I am confident that I can keep him here."
Yue Zongyang knew that what the zombie king said was true.
He also believed that with the Zombie King's strength, coupled with the endless zombies in the underground research institute, killing Number 1 would not be difficult.
Just like what the Zombie King said earlier, Number 1, no matter how strong, is still just one person...
...
A brief silence fell over the room.
A moment later, the Zombie King stood up from the chair. Seeing that Yue Zongyang's breathing was getting weaker and weaker, he slowly raised his arm.
He knew that Yue Zongyang wouldn't last much longer, but even so, he didn't want him to die like that.
Before this, he had simulated this scene in his mind countless times. He thought of many cruel tortures to torment Yue Zongyang, wanting him to die slowly in pain and torment.
However, Yue Zongyang was clearly no longer able to withstand any more turmoil; his life had come to an end.
That's why the Zombie King had to end his life with his own hands before he died, because only in this way could he feel more satisfied.
"Yue Zongyang, you've gotten off easy today. Now you can rest in peace on your journey."
Yue Zongyang's gaze softened as he looked at the hand that was about to be extended in front of him.
"well……"
He first sighed softly, then surprisingly smiled with relief.
At this moment, with his white hair, he seemed to be truly moved, and a tear slid down his cheek.
Then, he finally said the words he had always wanted to say.
"My apprentice...I...I'm sorry..."
As soon as the voice fell, the zombie king froze on the spot.
I'm sorry, I'm so sorry...
He had only heard these three words twice from Yue Zongyang.
The first time was when Yue Zongyang celebrated his birthday, using deceptive words to mislead him.
It was after that incident that he truly saw Yue Zongyang's character.
And the second time is right now.
This time, he could tell that Yue Zongyang truly meant those three words from the bottom of his heart...
The Zombie King never expected that his teacher would actually repent to him in the last moments of his life.
At that moment, Yue Zongyang's next words reached his ears.
“Disciple, I know you suffered terribly that year, it’s all my fault…”
"I know that only by killing me can you get rid of the resentment in your heart."
"I only hope that before I die, you can accept the last gift your teacher has prepared for you."
After he finished speaking, he glanced at the zombie king with pleading eyes, and then turned his gaze aside.
"Gift?"
The Zombie King was puzzled. The next second, he instinctively looked in the direction Yue Zongyang was looking.
He saw a box on a cabinet in the corner.
Without the slightest hesitation, he got up and walked over.
As he walked to the cabinet and reached out to open the box, a syringe filled with green liquid appeared before his eyes.
The Zombie King, somewhat curious, took out the syringe and turned to ask a question.
"What's this?"
Yue Zongyang forced a smile and responded.
"A potion that can turn you back into a human."
As soon as the words fell, the zombie king was momentarily stunned.
He stared blankly at the syringe in his hand and muttered to himself softly.
"Is there a potion that can turn me back into a human...?"
...
At the same time, Yue Zongyang stared intently at the zombie king with expectant eyes.
He kept hoping in his heart...
He hoped the zombies would inject the green liquid into him.
But the next second, his eyes widened.
The zombie king hesitated for only a moment before making a decision.
"Crack!"
The sound of shattering glass rang out, and with a resolute look in his eyes, he crushed the syringe with his fingers.
The green liquid slid down his fingertips and onto the ground.
"It's too late, it's too late..."
...
Seeing this scene before him, Yue Zongyang felt utterly hopeless.
In reality, there is no such potion that can turn the zombie king back into a human.
The effects of that green liquid were not at all what Yue Zongyang had just described.
Rather, it was a deadly poison! A poison powerful enough to kill the zombie king!
This was Yue Zongyang's last trump card in killing the zombie king.
He thought that by using this method of enticement, there was a greater than 50% chance that the zombie king would inject the green liquid.
As long as the Zombie King injects that green liquid, he will still be the final victor.
However, Yue Zongyang never expected that the zombie king would choose to give up so decisively.
This meant that he had completely lost his last chance to kill the zombie king...
The next second, the zombie king walked over again with a blank expression.
"Smack!"
After a crisp sound, blood splattered everywhere!
This time, he didn't hesitate at all and crushed Yue Zongyang's head with one hand!
