Chapter 636 - Doll-Like Girl
Translator: Liu_Kaixuan Editor: Valvrave
Three days later, when Ye Yuekong saw Jiang Liushi again, who just walked out from his bedroom, she was shocked suddenly. Jiang Liushi’s appearance and force field had undergone a significant change. His muscles were more symmetrical, and the pressure he exuded made her feel as if a mutant beast was hidden inside him. Before Jang Liushi, Ye Yuekong felt her body getting tense and a chill running down her spine.
“You…” Ye Yuekong shocked to the point she could not form a proper sentence.
Noticing her expression, Jiang Liushi smiled. Of course, he was quite satisfied with his evolution this time. He could felt that his power had increased and was eager to test his strength. Unfortunately, there were no SUVs in the vicinity to test it. Jiang Liushi adjusted his breathing, retracted his aura, and then he looked out the window.
“Where are we?” Jiang Liushi had slept for about three days, so he didn’t know where they were. He could just see lots of tall buildings outside, giving him the impression of a previously bustling city. However, those tall buildings, coupled with the eerily silent atmosphere didn’t even bring a tinge of warmth to people. Instead, it gave them a strange, depressing feeling. After doomsday, the wilderness was way safer than cities.
“We are in Chukyo.” Before Ye Yuekong could respond, Ran Xiyu walked out and explained, “We drove along the way and just arrived at here.”
“Oh! It must have been hard on you during the past few days,” said Jiang Liushi softly and held Ran Xiyu’s hands. He could feel her tender skin. He was sure that Ran Xiyu had taking care of him and scanning their surroundings at the same time.
Ran Xiyu’s ears turned red when she heard that, and couldn’t help but remember everything that happened during the three days he was unconscious.
Ye Yuekong also felt a little embarrassed. She knew that the three girls had been staying with Jiang Liushi, and nobody had dared to bother them. Not even Jiang Zhuying. Naturally, she had made plenty of speculations…
“But why did we come here?” asked Jiang Liushi again.
“After we left that military area, originally, we intended to travel straight to Tokyo. However, as soon as we reached the highway, we saw a convoy of cars heading to Chukyo. We discovered that they were carrying lots of heavy weapons, so we guessed that they were not ordinary survivors. We followed them, but out of fear of discovering us, we didn’t get very close to them,” said Ran Xiyu.
“The team may be Genesis?” asked Jiang Liushi.
“It’s not may be, it is Genesis! From Miss Ran’s description, I recognized one of the SUVs from the convoy. It belongs to Xue Sha!” added Ye Yuekong, unable to suppress her killing intent.
Ran Xiyu also nodded. If not for Ye Yuekong, it would be impossible for her to identify them.
“Oh, they must be the ones that escaped from the Sword Club! Very good!” Jiang Liushi sneered.
Initially, he believed that they had to chase after them all the way to Tokyo. But he didn’t expect to find them near Chukyo. In fact, Jiang Liushi’s speculation was off as he had underestimated his tour bus’ speed. Although they had wasted some time n the military base, with Ying as the driver, coupled with the MCV’s lightning-fast speed, they caught up to them.
‘Since Xue Sha is here, Shen Kui and the Black Rubik’s Cube should be here. It’s about time to deal with everything in one fell swoop,’ thought Jiang Liushi.
…
Chukyo Base was the only densely populated place in the Nagoya area. More than 100,000 survivors lived there, and the market, production, and residential areas were all available. In the crowded Chukyo Base, there was a concealed manor in the downtown area. It was quite beautiful and quiet.
Currently, a girl adorned in a red dress and a long ponytail hanging behind her head was standing in the manor’s yard. She looked very young, but she was wearing stiletto shoes, and her nails were painted pink. At first glance, the girl looked like a jade-carved doll. If she didn’t blink, nobody would realize that she was a living person.
At this moment, two off-road vehicles entered the yard, and a dozen powerful guards jumped out of them. Then, a middle-aged man, who exuded a strong aura and had a majestic bearing, got off the vehicle. After the middle-aged man got out of the car, he immediately turned and respectfully stood by the door. A man who appeared to be only in his twenties and whose hair was a little messy came out of the car next.
In the next instant, a shrill cry came from the air, and a big crow descended from the sky on the young man’s shoulder. The man’s cold eyes were staring straight ahead. As he glanced around, his scarlet eyes gave everyone an unnerving feeling.
The girl narrowed her eyes slightly. Then, she approached the young man and gently kneeled. “Welcome. Your presence honors me. I’m in charge of Chukyo Base. You must be our leader, Shen Kui. I’ve long heard about you and your achievements. It’s a pity I didn’t have the chance to meet you earlier. Leader Shen Kui and President Xue Sha, this way please.”
The young man with a crow was just Shen Kui, and that middle-aged man beside him was Xue Sha, the president of Sword Club. As for that girl, only a select few people knew who she was. Her name was Angelica. Nobody could imagine that the Chancellor had kept hidden such a perfect-looking girl. However, even though she was a beautiful maiden, nobody dared to mess with her. If anyone showed her disrespect, they’d die n the spot – many had learned that the hard way.
Of course, Angelica was respectful to the Advocates and their subordinates. She was aware of everyone’s status in Genesis. In fact, Angelica really felt that Shen Kui’s visit was an honor to her. She looked at Shen Kui with a hint of worship as she had heard plenty of stories about him.
Shen Kui nodded, and then he asked directly, “Is everything I requested ready?”
“Of course, it’s in the basement of the building behind us. Let me lead the way,” answered Angelica with a smile.
Soon, they reached the basement’s door. As soon as they opened the door, a low growling sound came from the room, and then a shadow pounced at the door. However, that shadow was stopped at its tracks by an iron chain. When Shen Kui and the others saw what the shadow was, they all revealed strange expressions.
That shadow was actually a woman who was not wearing anything from the waist, and above and half of her face was missing. She was very tall, while her feet and arms were longer than a human’s. Her remaining eye emitted a terrible blood-red glow. She was growling and staring viciously at the people before her. The chains restraining her were making rattling sounds. Even the powerful paranormals felt scared. They were worried that the chains might break at any moment.
“A zombie?” Shen Kui was a little bit surprised.
After the second battle with Jiang Liushi, Shen Kui lost all of his prized beasts. As a result, he was in an urgent need to find more. However, it was not easy to find mutant beasts that met his requirements. Fortunately, he received news that Chukyo Base had caught a monster. But Shen Kui did not expect that Angelica had actually caught a mutant zombie.
Looking at the mutant beast, Shen Kui’s eyes shined. His judgment told him that the mutant zombie was not an ordinary one. “Good specimen!” exclaimed Shen Kui, and then he heaved a sigh of relief.
“It had been causing trouble to our base for a long time. In order to catch it, I lost more than 20 excellent paranormals and 100 plus ordinary paranormals. Had we not used this special alloy to craft the chain, it would be very hard to restrain it. I hope it’s to your satisfaction, Leader Shen Kui,” said Angelica.
Then, she added, “This mutant zombie is infinitely close to breaking through to level-3. I believe that under your control, it will soon become a level-3.” As she said that, a hint of excitement flashed past her eyes.
“Okay, very good, let it tear those people,” said Shen Kui.
Suddenly, his eyes emitted a strange glow, and the mutant zombie was momentarily stunned. It frantically tried to struggle, growling in anger…
