159: The army entered Shangqing City

Yu Shijian's body began to undergo a bizarre transformation; his tattered body started to swell.

Thick fluid oozed from his wounds, which could be seen rapidly healing, or rather, contorting.

His broken arms seemed to have lost their bones, twisting, extending, as flesh stretched and grew.

His head swelled and contorted, mucus stringing out. From his shoulder blades, flesh pushed through his clothes, growing against the natural order, visibly emerging, wrapped in thick, viscous fluid.

They resembled tentacles, writhing like snakes, then merging into the larger whole.

Finally, two wings formed from fleshy tentacles spread open, like the wings of a demon from Hell.

At this moment, several Infected had arrived, opening their bloody mouths and pouncing on Yu Shijian with bloodlust.

But just then, Yu Shijian's arms had already transformed into two massive tentacles, instantly coiling around the necks of two Infected.

With a flick, the two Infected flew out like rag dolls, crashing heavily to the ground.

Yu Shijian rose from the ground, knelt, and said with fervent zeal, "O the great lord of eternal life, this humble believer offers You supreme faith!"

At this point, the Infected who had been flung away earlier, along with those attracted to the commotion, totaled several dozen. With ferocious expressions, they swarmed forward.

Yu Shijian stood up, his fervent gaze shifting to madness and coldness as he watched the Infected closing in to kill him.

His two tentacle-arms swept out violently, carrying terrifying power, sending dozens of Infected flying.

The two tentacles cleared a wide area around him with their movements.

"Now, the time for sacrifice has come!"

Yu Shijian looked up at the second floor, a bizarre and insane smile playing on his lips.

Just as the Infected began to rise, still intent on attacking, Yu Shijian's fleshy wings on his back flapped, and he shot into the air, instantly arriving outside the second-floor window.

The already closed glass window shattered with a crash.

"Who's there?!"

A group of burly men, still in the midst of their activities, were startled by the sound and quickly looked back.

But what they saw nearly scared the Souls out of them.

"Oh my! It's a monster!"

A terrifying monster hovered outside the window, with a wide, distorted head, two horrifying and grotesque tentacles where its hands should be, and a pair of bloody, twisted fleshy wings on its back!

However, based on the monster's clothing, they recognized its identity: it was Yu Shijian, whom they had just thrown down.

"How can this be? You're that university student from earlier?!"

They were terrified. He was just an ordinary person moments ago; how could he have turned into a monster now?

Could he have been Infected by a zombie and mutated into one of those mutated zombies from the movies?

They thought Yu Shijian was going to fly in and kill them, but strangely, Yu Shijian merely hovered outside the window, watching them coldly, not flying in.

"Run!"

This brought great joy to the thugs. Regardless of the reason, it at least gave them time to escape.

They immediately tried to get off the women, but at that moment, they realized their members were stuck, firmly held in place.

Infuriated, they were about to hit the female university students beneath them, but then they noticed that the slender, curvaceous bodies of the female university students beneath them had become swollen and bloated.

Their flesh was visibly twisting and growing, and their once beautiful faces were now terrifying, bearing twisted and eerie smiles as they looked at them.

"You love this so much, don't you? Don't worry, we'll give you the ultimate pleasure!"

All the female university students laughed together, their laughter enchanting and seductive, yet bizarre and distorted.

"Ah ah ah..."

"Spare..."

The next moment, all the thugs let out terrified screams. They discovered that their flesh was being devoured by the female university students beneath them through their members!

Their bodies visibly shriveled, a horrifying sight!

Just a few minutes passed, and the screams abruptly ceased.

All the thugs had turned into mummified corpses, mere skin and bones.

"To the great lord of eternal life, we offer our eternal faith! Even if our Souls are forever immersed in His great Divine Power, it is our glorious destiny!"

All the female university students knelt on the ground, shouting fervently.

Yu Shijian flew in, landed on the ground, his wings retracted, and his bloated body gradually returned to normal.

"Xiaoya!"

The fervor on Yu Shijian's face receded. The converted Evil Human Kin were not without their minds; it was just that their faith in Su Yuan was incredibly fervent and loyal, and their worldview and understanding of the world differed from ordinary people.

"A-Jian!"

The female university students' appearances also returned to normal; they put on their clothes, and one of the girls looked at Yu Shijian, a smile on her face.

"Another rather special Evil Human Kin, not bad."

Su Yuan looked at Yu Shijian and nodded in satisfaction.

With wings on his back, capable of flight, his strength, though slightly less than Father Paul, was comparable to that of the previous husband.

Su Yuan gave them the order to find the Mysterious Organization, then turned and left.

"The oracle has been delivered! Find the Mysterious Organization and kill them!"

Yu Shijian's tone became cold.

"I will sacrifice the flesh and blood of the blasphemers to the great lord of eternal life!"

The faces of the girls also became cold and fervent... Su Yuan left the school and continued to walk through a city that resembled a post-apocalyptic world.

Due to the disguise, the Infected moving about did not attack Su Yuan.

As Su Yuan explored, more and more survivors were gradually discovered by him.

Even though Su Yuan did not forcibly convert these people, he always asked for their opinions.

But in this life-and-death crisis, no one would give up this hard-won hope from Hell, even if that hope came from the endless abyss.

Except for one particular Security Officer, everyone Su Yuan encountered willingly became his Evil Human Kin.

At a time unnoticed by the outside world, many survivors in Shangqing City shed their human identity, dedicating their faith to a shadow in the darkness.

The red sun in the sky gradually sank until it dipped below the horizon, as if pulled down from the Nine Heavens by an invisible tentacle.

After nightfall, Shangqing City became even quieter.

Only an invisible, colossal figure walked through the silent city, casting its gaze into every corner where survivors hid.

Under the cover of night, figures emerged from various corners of the city, easily dismembering the Infected they once desperately avoided. The scent of blood permeated the air, causing the Infected throughout the city to gradually grow agitated.

Some insane laughter also echoed from various parts of the city, some Infected corpses were arranged into a bizarre symbol, and prayers from all over flowed into Su Yuan's mind.

As the night gradually receded and the first rays of dawn spilled down, illuminating Su Yuan, a colossal silhouette was vaguely visible, standing in the city.

But soon, this flickering silhouette completely disappeared.

"Not bad, not bad. The number of survivors has exceeded my expectations; there are already over a hundred. With more effort, we can aim to break a thousand in one go."

Su Yuan saw that it was dawn and, recalling the converted Evil Human Kin, smiled.

But just then, Su Yuan frowned, seeing drones flying in from outside Shangqing City, and not just one or two, but quite a few, broadcasting through loudspeakers.

"Survivors, please note, our army is the XX Army, dispatched to rescue survivors. All survivors, please try to appear at your windows so that the drones can observe you. Soon, our army will..."

"Survivors, please note, our army is the XX Army, dispatched to rescue survivors. All survivors..."

..."The military is coming to rescue survivors, but they didn't say they're rescuing Shangqing City. Is it because an antidote hasn't been invented yet? So it's impossible to act against the Infected, unless they plan to abandon these Infected and kill all of them."

Su Yuan watched this scene, trying to dig out deeper information from these words.

"If that's the case, there's no need for me to expose myself now. I'll retreat first. Conveniently, some of my chess pieces can enter the human world to relay intelligence to me."

Su Yuan whispered with a smile. This time, among the Evil Human Kin, there was more than one government official.
