362: The infiltration has already begun.

A hint of surprise flashed across Tian Ming's face when he heard the Corpse King refer to himself as a 'Converter.'

He had never heard that name before, but judging from the opponent's abilities, this was clearly not a simple character.

"A Converter? What is that?" Tian Ming crouched down, looking at the dying Corpse King, and asked.

"Heh heh, Lu Tianming, you really don't know of my existence." The Converter's face showed a self-mocking smile.

"I am a Corpse King transformed from a human, possessing the abilities of illusion and conversion.

I can transform any living creature into one of my kind, and I can also turn myself into an illusion to evade enemy attacks.

It's just a pity that I met you and your daughter; I am thoroughly convinced of my defeat."

"Aren't all zombies once human?" Tian Ming found it a bit amusing.

The Converter said coldly, "If all living creatures were traced back to their origins, they could be reduced to the most primitive cell, but humans and the corpse race are not the same species.

The corpse race is more perfect, do you understand?"

Tian Ming shook his head slightly, "I don't understand.

Didn't Jiang Chen say to give him a year?

That year hasn't passed yet, and he's already getting impatient?"

A hint of fanaticism flashed in the Converter's eyes, "Warfare is the way of deception.

What our Emperor said about a year means a full-scale war when the one-year deadline arrives.

Isn't your Special Operations Group also hunting our Kings everywhere?"

"If you put it that way, I really can't refute it.

Your Emperor has even started studying the Thirty-Six Stratagems?

Alright, I promised Jiang Chen not to directly interfere in the war, so today, since you trespassed into my home, you can't blame me."

Shen Yuan immediately covered Xiao Xiao's eyes.

In an instant, the Converter was torn to pieces by the Nanometer Avatar, and a bright Red Crystal Core slowly floated in the air.

"Daddy, give, give it to Baby!" Xiao Xiao clearly felt the energy of the Red Crystal Core and quickly broke free from Shen Yuan's hand, reaching out her small hand towards the Red Crystal Core.

Tian Ming smiled slightly, stretched out his hand, and the Red Crystal Core flew into his grasp.

He carefully examined the Red Crystal Core and found that it contained powerful energy and vitality within it.

"Xiao Xiao, this Red Crystal Core is very powerful, but you are still young right now, and Daddy is afraid something might happen to you," Tian Ming said.

Xiao Xiao, however, flew directly over, cupped the Red Crystal Core in her small hands, and at that instant, the Red Crystal Core's energy was instantly dissolved, turning into strands of energy threads.

Xiao Xiao's body frantically absorbed these energies.

Her body was like a bottomless pit, continuously absorbing the energy from the Red Crystal Core, and her eyes became even brighter.

Soon, Xiao Xiao's body energy reached saturation, and a beam of red light directly shone onto Shen Yuan's body.

The violent energy transformed into a gentle trickle of energy, which was shared with Shen Yuan.

Xiao Xiao had already brought too many surprises to Tian Ming, and both Tian Ming and Shen Yuan were shocked by the scene before them.

They looked at Xiao Xiao, only to see her small face beaming with a satisfied and happy smile, as if she had just enjoyed a delicious feast.

Shen Yuan also felt her Ability Users strength significantly improve at that moment.

Xiao Xiao giggled and flew between Tian Ming and Shen Yuan, extending her small hand to hug her mother: "Sleepy, Baby wants to sleep."

As soon as Xiao Xiao finished speaking, she fell asleep almost instantly.

The Red Crystal Core's energy was simply too much for Xiao Xiao; she was clearly overfilled.

Shen Yuan glanced at Tian Ming, with a hint of worry on her face: "Xiao Xiao won't have any problems, will she?"

Tian Ming reached out and checked Xiao Xiao's condition, a smile appearing on his face: "Don't worry, Xiao Xiao just has an excess of energy.

She'll be fine after a nap.

It seems this Red Crystal Core is a great tonic for her."

Shen Yuan nodded gently, but still had some concerns: "I hope so.

It's just... how did this Converter find us here?"

Tian Ming frowned, pondering for a moment: "I've already had Qiu Qian send the Transforming Potion to the Energy Research Institute.

Let's wait for news from the experts there.

Don't make wild guesses yet."

Shen Yuan nodded slightly and said, "Hmm, I guess this matter is resolved?"

Tian Ming shook his head and said, "You go rest with the child.

I'm going to the Energy Research Institute.

I'm a bit worried now whether Jiang Chen's infiltration has already begun.

If there's a problem internally, it's a bigger threat than external ones."

"Okay, go.

Come back soon."

Tian Ming turned and left, arriving at the Energy Research Institute in the Underground City.

Upon entering the institute, everyone was busy, and several gray-haired researchers were discussing the Transforming Potion that Qiu Qian had sent.

"This thing is more like a zombie virus.

Once injected, people directly turn into zombies."

"Not quite.

Although they become zombies, this Transforming Potion can retain human consciousness.

This potion is much stronger than the Superpower Potion; there's no need for continuous injections to prolong life," another researcher said.

At this moment, Tian Ming was standing at the entrance.

Professor Zhang, who was in charge of the institute, saw Tian Ming's arrival and quickly cleared his throat.

The others also reacted and immediately stopped their discussion.

"Mr. Lu, you're here!" Professor Zhang walked over and said respectfully.

"So, have you researched anything?" Tian Ming said as he found a chair and sat down.

Professor Zhang said, "Yes, we've analyzed the Transforming Potion, and we can currently draw several conclusions."

Tian Ming nodded slightly and asked, "What conclusions?"

Professor Zhang continued, "First, this thing has the same effect as the Super Serum.

The Super Serum has an extremely low probability of promoting evolution into Ability Users, but the Transforming Potion can achieve an almost 100% probability."

"Professor Zhang, hearing you say that, this potion is a good thing, then?" Tian Ming asked.

Professor Zhang shook his head slightly and said, "Although the success rate is very high, what evolves and mutates is not an Ability Users, but a zombie.

However, it will retain human consciousness, meaning that the transformed person, while appearing human, is essentially a zombie.

Whereas Ability Users promoted by the Super Serum are still essentially human."

Tian Ming nodded slightly and said, "Are you saying that even though the transformed people look human, they still have no resistance to flesh and blood?"

Professor Zhang nodded slightly and said, "Yes, that's what I mean.

Also, this potion itself contains energy, which will give the Converter effects similar to a Superpower Potion.

After injection, they can break free from dependence on the food chain and possess abilities like zombies."

A hint of confusion appeared on Tian Ming's face.

Professor Zhang continued, "In layman's terms, Converters can eat anything.

But the best choice is still to eat people.

Therefore, if a Converter has an extremely firm will, they can restrain their desire for flesh and blood."

"Hmm, I understand!"
