Chapter 330 Defeat
Yue Zongyang stood still and waited quietly. He waited until the zombie king's laughter disappeared before he slowly spoke.
"Zombie King, tell me, who's more miserable between us? Humph! Ridiculous!"
"At least I still look like a human being, but what about you? Where is the human form you once had?"
After saying this, the zombie king's face clearly showed anger. He pointed a finger at himself and then shouted angrily.
"Yue Zongyang, how dare you say such things? Why have I become like this? Isn't it all your doing?"
Yes, if that gene research project hadn't been carried out, how could the Zombie King have become what it is today?
Yue Zongyang understood this principle better than anyone else.
In fact, from the moment the zombie king escaped with the ice crystal virus, he felt remorse in his heart.
Nevertheless, at this moment, he would not show this regret in front of the Zombie King.
Because the two sides are now in an absolutely hostile relationship.
He knew that even if he knelt down and confessed his past mistakes, the other party would not be moved by his words, nor would they willingly hand over the black blood from their heart.
The only way to obtain the Black Blood is to kill the Zombie King.
Since the two sides are in a tense standoff, he won't allow himself to show weakness; otherwise, he'll lose in terms of momentum...
To be defeated before the battle even begins is a grave mistake!
Then, Yue Zongyang spoke up in response.
"I changed your appearance, but I cannot change your heart!"
"What kind of person you want to become is entirely up to you."
"Moreover, do you know how much that gene-editing project will advance human civilization?"
"If you supported me and stood on my side, I'm afraid our master-disciple relationship wouldn't have come to this!"
As the words fell, the zombie king threw his head back and laughed loudly again.
"Hahaha! As expected, Yue Zongyang, although your appearance has changed today, your nature has not changed at all."
"Hahaha! This is the real you, the you I know and love!"
Laughter echoed continuously in the room until, after an unknown amount of time, the zombie king stopped laughing.
The next second, his expression suddenly became calm. He slowly pulled the chain back and wrapped it around his arm, and then he spoke.
"Yue Zongyang, do you know what I find most annoying right now? Your constant talk of benevolence and morality is just too much for me."
"In the eyes of others, all your actions are for the sake of all mankind, completely creating a righteous and awe-inspiring image for yourself."
"But only I know your true nature; you're nothing but a selfish scoundrel!"
"Let me tell you, if things could be done over again, if time could be turned back, on that day when you chose to tell me you were going to start that project, I still wouldn't support you, I would still stand against you!"
"However, this time, I won't try to dissuade you with nonsense; I will simply kill you!"
Before they knew it, the zombie king had finished binding the chains.
As he finished speaking, his right hand gripped the hilt of the massive scythe, and with an extremely angry expression on his face, he charged straight forward.
The battle has begun!
...
At the same time, seeing that the zombie king had finally made a move, Yue Zongyang also quickly brandished his longsword.
His muscles bulged instantly, and with a serious expression, he mustered all his strength and charged forward!
"bite!"
With the first clash of weapons, the two sides finally engaged in battle.
The sounds of fighting could be heard continuously coming from the room.
"Ding! Boom! Bang..."
In just a moment, the collision between their raised hands left the room in a complete mess.
The two were so fast that it was dazzling and impossible to see their movements clearly.
With each strike, an invisible shockwave slowly spread outwards.
The Zombie King wore a maniacal smile, and every strike he made was incredibly vicious.
At this moment, all he wanted was to inflict all the torment he had suffered on the person in front of him.
Yue Zongyang dared not be careless in the slightest. Only when they officially started fighting did he realize just how terrifying the Zombie King was.
However, having been injected with the blue liquid, his strength should not be underestimated.
At this moment, he became the first person in the underground research institute who would not be crushed by the zombie king.
In less than a minute, the two exchanged hundreds of blows. As the zombie king's attacks intensified, blood trickled from the corner of Yue Zongyang's mouth.
Although the two seemed to be of similar strength, Yue Zongyang's physical condition was much worse.
Unbeknownst to him, blood was seeping from his seven orifices.
The next second, Yue Zongyang began to retreat steadily, and it seemed he couldn't hold on for much longer...
...
On the other side, Han Shuo had already followed the flow of people to the middle area of the escape route.
Here, it's about 5 kilometers away from the outside.
As he ran, he glanced back and saw no sign of zombies appearing behind him. He knew that the director and the zombie king must have already met by now.
Recalling how Yue Zongyang was lifeless and still convulsing when he left the office, he couldn't help but start to question things.
"I estimate that the two sides are already engaged in combat. If the director can't maintain his pressure on the zombie king at the start, he'll probably be the one to lose in the end..."
He quickly stopped thinking about it, because at this point, no matter what the final outcome was, he had to get out through the escape route first.
Han Shuo quickened his pace again, squeezing into the crowd and continuing to push his way forward...
...
This is the director's office.
Just as Han Shuo had suspected, Yue Zongyang's physical condition was deteriorating rapidly.
Blood flowed uncontrollably from his seven orifices, and his vision gradually blurred.
The Zombie King snorted coldly and spoke.
"Hmph! Yue Zongyang, judging from your appearance, you must have injected something to forcibly enhance your strength."
"I'm telling you, that's far from enough!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the zombie king's face suddenly turned ruthless.
He found an opening where Yue Zongyang couldn't dodge in time, and kicked him with all his might, sending him flying against the wall.
"Bang!"
Huge cracks appeared around the wall. After spitting out a mouthful of blood, Yue Zongyang slid down the wall to the ground.
He could no longer feel the pain. He wanted to get up and rush forward, but found that he had lost all feeling in his legs.
It turned out that it wasn't that he couldn't feel the pain anymore, but rather that the pain had gradually transformed into numbness in his body.
This paralysis gradually spread from his legs to his upper body; this was a sign of impending death!
Yue Zongyang knew this the moment he felt this numbness.
He lost this battle...
