Although Bai Jingkong had reached the fourth level, she was still no match for Lu Yan. She was subdued by Lu Yan in less than a minute, and Guo Miaomiao was powerless to resist.
As she was restrained and watched helplessly as the emerald necklace she always wore around her neck was handed to the other person, she could no longer contain her fear and cried out, "Please, I'll give you anything, just give me back the necklace. It's an heirloom, a keepsake from my mother. I beg you..."
Guo Miaomiao, in her thirties, still retained her charm and looked so pitiful that most men would find her irresistible. But this time, she met with a setback. When she met Lu Yan's cold, golden eyes, she flinched as if electrocuted.
He looked at her as if she were a dead person.
Lu Yan coldly looked at the two people trapped by the golden spiritual power and asked in a cold voice, "I want to hear the truth about Xia Yixin's matter more than ten years ago."
Upon hearing the name "Xia Yixin," Bai Jingkong was momentarily confused before remembering it, while Guo Miaomiao's face turned pale.
Bai Jingkong honestly recounted what happened more than ten years ago. K Base had only been built for a little over five years, and Xia Yixin was the strongest team leader of the third team. Unfortunately, they were attacked while on a mission together and died after being infected with the virus.
"At the time, we even formed a special search team to look for her, but she probably didn't want to be a burden to us, so we searched for a long time without finding her. She was the strongest in our K base at the time, and we didn't want to lose her either, but there was really nothing we could do." Bai Jingkong said while observing the other person's expression, and wisely shut her mouth when she sensed that the other person's coldness was getting stronger.
At this moment, Guo Miaomiao, who had been silent, was feeling very uneasy. She didn't know what the relationship was between this foreign man who suddenly appeared and Xia Yixin, but she knew that she absolutely couldn't let him know that she was the one who had secretly killed Xia Yixin more than ten years ago.
However, she overestimated her acting skills.
Lu Yan sensed something was wrong with Guo Miaomiao from her changes in expression and aura. He lowered his gaze slightly, and his golden spiritual power transformed into a blade, stabbing into Bai Jingkong next to her. Amid the man's screams, more than a dozen golden daggers were pressed against her body.
"I'm warning you one last time, I want the truth. How exactly did she die!"
Bai Jingkong clutched his abdomen, covered in cold sweat. He felt death approaching. Just as he was thinking of defending himself, he suddenly heard a scream from the woman next to him.
"Miao Miao!!" Bai Jingkong's eyes were bloodshot. His woman's injury aroused his resentment, but he also knew that he was no match for the other party, so he could only shut his mouth in cowardice.
On the other side, Guo Miaomiao tried to escape, but was slashed all over by more than a dozen knives and was even pinned to the wall.
Waves of excruciating pain surged through her. Looking at Bai Jingkong, who was cowering to the side, she felt both disappointed and angry. Finally, as the blade pressed against her throat, she cried out urgently, "Don't kill me! I didn't mean to! I only concealed the fact that there was a level five zombie. I didn't expect it to be this serious. I really didn't want to hurt her. She's my cousin!"
Even now, Guo Miaomiao is still trying to get away with it.
Unfortunately, her dream came to an end.
With a thought, Lu Yan sent his golden spiritual energy through Guo Miaomiao's throat.
She died with her eyes wide open in disbelief.
The necklace that Guo Miaomiao had originally bound to her with blood also lost its binding information with a barely audible click. Over the years, it had only been used to fulfill less than one-tenth of its intended function, having been forcibly bound to Guo Miaomiao, an outsider.
Seeing Guo Miaomiao die, Bai Jingkong didn't roar and attack. Instead, he stood up and tried to escape, but before he could even touch the villa door, he fell into a pool of blood.
Lu Yan had completely calmed down by this time. He guessed that this might be a parallel dimension. Although the Xia Yixin here might not be her, it was enough to make Lu Yan angry. As for what would happen to the K base without Bai Jingkong and Guo Miaomiao, he didn't care.
As night fell, Lu Yan left K Base, but his anxiety grew stronger. Back in T City, at the medical university, looking at the surrounding ruins, the feeling that he was just one step away from touching something intensified.
Suddenly, from the darkness, a fifth-tier zombie roared and pounced on him from the shadows; it was the city's former king.
A fifth-order opponent fighting an eighth-order opponent is like throwing an egg against a rock.
However, when Lu Yan saw the zombie's face clearly, his golden spiritual power instantly stopped, and the zombie's teeth bit into his arm.
It's her!
No, it's "Xia Yixin" from this parallel world. Her appearance is almost unchanged from his memory, except for her pale skin, her body covered with black spiderweb-like zombie lines, and her red and white eyes. Her age is forever frozen at the moment of death.
The fifth-tier zombie had already developed her own consciousness. She was originally the king of this city. Feeling that her territory had been invaded, she instinctively felt the urge to fight. His withdrawal did not stop her; instead, she attacked even more fiercely.
Lu Yan had bloodstains all over his body and face. Finally, he fought back.
The golden spiritual power easily bound the zombie "Xia Yixin's" limbs, but even so, she struggled desperately, screaming, and even dislocated her own arm.
"Roar-! Roar-!" she roared.
This is not her.
The soul within her body is completely wrong.
Lu Yan pressed down on the head of the roaring zombie, applying slight pressure. The zombie let out a scream, and Lu Yan wanted to kill it.
However, at that moment, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his head, as if he had been hit hard. It turned out that this zombie "Xia Yixin" had also evolved to mental power. No wonder she could become the king of T City at the fifth level.
Lu Yan's head throbbed with pain, and a series of images flashed through his mind, gradually transforming from fragmented to complete. He suddenly realized that the zombie's mental strength couldn't possibly be that strong; it was recovering all its previous memories.
He was immediately invigorated and stopped resisting. Instantly, countless images flooded his mind, and the sealed power returned to his body.
In the dead of night, the zombies throughout T City roared in agitation as they sensed the powerful force emanating from the city center.
Some low-level zombies were even blown off their heads.
Golden spiritual energy formed a golden sphere of light, enveloping Lu Yan within it. The power of the Heavenly God bloodline had always been there, but Lu Yan had simply forgotten how to use it before. Upon awakening, it produced a powerful counter-effect.
Finally, a minute later, the powerful pressure disappeared again, just as suddenly as it had appeared.
The zombie "Xia Yixin" had already escaped while Lu Yan was recovering. Although Lu Yan's appearance had not changed, his aura and the emotions in his eyes showed that he was different.
After regaining all his previous memories, the last thing that flooded his mind was the last scene from over a year ago before he "lost his memory"...
