Volume 1: Hidden Conspiracy, Starting Point 072



Jiang Huai-ren definitely has an extraordinary story.

I cannot judge a person's character based on only one side of the story.

At least, this Taoist priest Jiang in front of me unintentionally saved my family.

This person is known as the walking punishment of heaven, so he must have extraordinary abilities.

With this person present, this mission might not be so dangerous.

After careful planning and thorough preparation, everyone was ready.

I also took out all the talismans I had drawn over the past few months, which numbered about several hundred.

This time, we'll be dealing with zombies; I wonder if it'll be like in the movies.

Moreover, this incident was clearly orchestrated intentionally.

This matter involves a great deal of issues and is directly related to the interests of the country.

For the sake of my country and the world, even if it's not for the sake of becoming stronger, I must step forward without hesitation for the sake of my own country.

This time, I have reasons why I cannot retreat.

After resting, the group of dozens headed to the airport.

Once everyone had arrived, the chartered flight immediately flew to Yunnan, a border city in the south.

The ultraviolet radiation in Yunnan is very strong, as if you are being roasted in a fire.

After landing, I felt even breathing became difficult.

The crowd surged forward and boarded the bus that was already waiting there.

No one on the bus spoke, presumably because they were all very nervous, as they didn't know what kind of opponent they would be facing.

Two hours later, the bus was suddenly stopped by a figure.

The figure was distorted, resembling both a human and an animal.

I glanced out the car window and my eyes widened in surprise.

"All personnel on high alert! We've entered battlefield territory!"

"Damn it, some beast actually stopped the car!"

"I'll get out of the car and kill him right now!"

A burly man stood up and began to curse angrily.

But his senior brother Li, who was sitting next to him, stopped him, saying, "Little Xu, don't be impulsive!"

"The strength of these zombies is still uncertain."

"There might be a lot of zombies around, so it would be too dangerous to act rashly."

The burly man called Xiao Xu said urgently, "We can't just let these beasts go unchecked!"

"I'll kill him in ten seconds, I'll be quick!"

The senior apprentice still wouldn't let go: "Sit down. We don't even know if these zombies are contagious. Do you want to kill everyone?"

"If you were to get infected by chance, which of these brothers here would dare to lay a hand on you!"

"If you insist on not listening to my advice, I might let you sleep for a while."

My senior brother's eyes narrowed slightly, the threat already quite obvious.

Hearing his senior apprentice's words, the burly man's tone softened: "But, but..."

At this moment, Jiang Huai-ren stood up from his seat.

Jiang Huai-ren glanced at the burly man: "Sit down!"

"Why all this noise? Use that energy on the battlefield!"

After saying that, Jiang Huai-ren's demeanor changed.

He walked straight to the car door and said, "Open the door."

The driver hesitated for a moment, glancing back.

When everyone saw that Jiang Huai-ren was about to make a move, their expressions became somewhat unnatural.

Clearly, Jiang Huai-ren was the strongest among the people in the car, and none of them seemed inclined to stop him.

The driver had no choice but to open the car door.

As soon as Jiang Huai-ren stepped out, in less than a second, I saw through the car window that with a flick of his sleeve, the zombie burst into flames.

In the blink of an eye, the zombie was reduced to charcoal.

Jiang Huai-ren had already returned to his seat before the bus door was even fully closed.

Upon seeing this, everyone fell even more silent.

The burly man sat down dejectedly, his earlier arrogance gone.

This was the first time I had ever seen Jiang Huai-ren in action, and as expected, he was terrifyingly strong.

It seems my master's wife wasn't exaggerating; this was an overwhelmingly powerful force that could almost instantly kill.

The battle was over before they even got close to each other.

Moreover, this person did not use any talismans, and it is unknown what kind of cultivation technique he practiced, but he was able to conjure flames out of thin air.

The driver didn't dare to breathe loudly and continued driving the car away with everyone.

About ten minutes later, we arrived at the so-called battlefield.

This place can only be described as a mountain of corpses and a sea of ​​blood; even the air is filled with an irresistible stench.

The stench of decay was suffocating.

A large area of ​​land ahead was littered with corpses.

We arrived at the defensive camp, where there were many soldiers. Presumably, there used to be troops stationed here.

Judging from this, many people must have been killed, and the current troop strength is obviously pitifully small.

Inside the tent were several people dressed in strange clothes, both men and women, whose identities were unknown.

There was another group of people whose uniforms I recognized; they were members of the Paranormal Investigation Bureau's special forces.

This group, which made up the majority, consisted of well-trained special forces soldiers. After being specially incorporated into the special forces, they were uniformly distributed with targeted weapons and equipment, forming a powerful supernatural force.

Clearly, they are currently the main force in this area.

Inside the tent, a woman in an army uniform stepped forward to greet them: "You've all worked hard, but the situation is urgent, so I won't go into any formalities. My name is Du Qiong, and I'm in charge of this demon-slaying mission."

The man next to me is Comrade Yang Xiu, the person in charge of the Paranormal Investigation Bureau who was sent to provide support this time.

The master also extended his large hand: "Hello General Du, I am Ma Tianxiong, the person in charge sent by the Taoist Association to support this mission."

"The situation is urgent. Could you tell us about the current situation?"

Du Qiong nodded: "The current zombie outbreak, according to the superiors' deductions, is most likely an operation carried out by Myanmar and Vietnam."

“The state has put pressure on them, but they have not offered any explanation and have only denied it outright.”

"This matter still needs to be resolved in the end. After all, without solid evidence, we cannot launch a military operation against their country."

At this moment, the burly man next to him angrily said, "Damn it, these barbarians are really asking for death."

"Don't let me catch them red-handed, or I'll tear them to pieces!"

Du Qiong didn't say anything, but continued, "We set up defenses in fourteen cities, but things happened too suddenly. We didn't have time to set up defenses in some places, and a small number of zombies flowed into the border area."

The master nodded: "I see. We encountered one on our way here."

"So what are we going to do with these zombies that have flown in?"

Du Qiong led us to the simulated combat map, picked up a flag and said, "We will implement personnel control in several important cities in Yunnan to prevent large-scale movement."

"There are also Taoist association members in Guangxi providing assistance, and the situation there is better than here."

"Many corpse-driving families in western Hunan have already been mobilized."

"To my shame, we have always been somewhat resistant to its nature."

"But when the country was in danger, it was these comrades who risked their lives to lend a helping hand."

The master sighed, "This is something we didn't expect either."
