He has been reincarnated through countless worlds, adorned with billions of mythological terms!

Pei Yuan stood up, his 1.9-meter height making him appear like a wall in the dimly lit church.

"Sun Yi, Zou Lu, and Zhao Lei are heading south, while Li Hu and I are heading north."

Pei Yuan picked up a long package leaning against the bench and slung it over his back.

"The Heavenly Secret Card has already been used, and the information is likely to be exposed."

"So we need to be fast."

"We don't need to be the first to find her; we just need to snatch her away when someone else does."

His voice remained calm throughout, as if he were stating a fact that had already occurred.

"I'm gone."

The four people responded and each packed their things.

The church door was pushed open, and the wind outside rushed in, carrying a rotten, sweet smell.

The five people disappeared into the night.

……

In the north of the city, there is an abandoned gas station.

The five members of the Wuji Squad gathered around a map.

"Someone used the Heavenly Secret Card."

The speaker was a woman with short hair and a slightly chubby face.

Is it accurate?

The person next to me asked.

"Divination indicates that the secrets of this world have changed."

"The information deduce over such a long period of time could not have been done by human intervention; it could only have been generated by the Heavenly Secret Card."

Her name is Shen Suihan, and she is the vice-captain of the Wuji Squad, responsible for intelligence and tactics.

This life was a tragic one. He was born into a mudslide, losing both his parents and being trapped under the mud and rocks. With his amazing willpower, he survived for seven days by eating dirt until the rescue team arrived.

Three seconds of silence.

"Have you found the results yet?"

A clear male voice came from the corner.

The person speaking was sitting on an overturned oil drum, looked to be about ten years old, and was wearing a mascot costume.

But his eyes looked wrong.

Those eyes were so still, as still as a lake in the dead of winter. You couldn't see anything, but you knew there was something beneath them.

"Found it."

Shen Suihan said, "The Heavenly Secret Card gave me a name—Yun Nian."

"Yun Tianheng's daughter?"

"Yes."

The person in the corner remained silent.

He stood up, walked to the map, and looked down at it for a while.

He drew a circle on the map with his finger—the north of the city, the wealthy area, not far from the shelter.

"Look this way."

He said, "People like Yun Tianheng would arrange for their family members to stay in the safest house closest to them."

"It's too far, I'm worried about it."

Shen Suihan glanced at him:

Are you sure?

"uncertain."

He said, "But as long as I'm faster than others, that's fine."

The Wuji Squad packed their things twice as fast as Tianying.

In less than two minutes, the five people had disappeared into the night.

The gas station was left with only one flickering light and the circle drawn by a finger on the map.

……

Yun Yi took Yun Nian away for three days.

Saying it's a departure is not quite accurate.

I carried her for the first half of the day, but Yun Nian woke up in the second half and insisted on walking on her own.

Her short legs moved swiftly, following behind Yun Yi like a waddling little duck.

After walking about two kilometers, blisters formed on the soles of her feet, so she climbed back onto Yunyi's back.

For the next three days, it was basically this pattern—Yun Yi carried Yun Nian on his back, Yun Nian lay on his back with her chin on his shoulder, her eyes darting around, finding everything new and exciting.

"Brother, why did that car flip over?"

"He was hit by a car."

"What about that one?"

"It was also hit by a car."

"What about the red one? It's so pretty."

"He was hit by a car."

"...Brother, is that all you can say?"

Yun Yi did not answer.

His attention was focused on the intersection fifty meters ahead.

Three wrecked cars blocked the intersection, forming a small basin.

In the center of the basin, a human-shaped creature was squatting, gnawing on something.

Yun Nian saw it too.

She didn't speak, but buried her face in Yun Yi's neck, her breathing becoming a little heavier.

Yun Yi took a detour and passed through the nearby residential area.

It took ten minutes longer, but it was safe.

This happened countless times in three days—when you see a zombie, take a detour;

If you hear a roar, take a detour;

If you smell something rotten, take a detour.

But every time they took the detour, the zombies would die inexplicably.

On the first night, they spent the night on the second floor of a residential building.

Yunyi chose a south-facing room with a lockable door and a window that offered a view of the road outside.

He dragged the mattress to the corner of the wall and let Yun Nian sit on it while he went to check the doors and windows.

Yun Nian held the ugly rabbit, watching him bustling around.

"Brother, aren't you tired?"

"Not tired."

"That's a lie."

"You carried me on your back all day."

Yun Yi ignored her, fastened the last window latch, and sat down next to her.

"Go to sleep."

Yun Nian leaned closer, resting her head on his shoulder.

After a while, she spoke again.

"Brother, isn't Mom scared being all alone there?"

Yun Yi paused for a moment.

"Won't."

How did you know?

"Because she is a mother."

Yun Nian thought about it for a moment, and felt that the logic seemed to make sense. She nodded and closed her eyes.

Yunyi woke up in the middle of the night.

It wasn't the noise that woke it up—it was the preparation for the hunt.

The reason I didn't take action during the day was not only because I was worried about Yun Nian's safety, but more importantly, because I didn't want her to see another side of me.

He sat up and glanced at the system panel.

[Current gene collection: 999]

[Transformation Requirements: Minimum 100 units of life genes are required for a second transformation.]

One more to go.

Most of them were secretly acquired when he took over part of the company's business at the age of nine.

After all, his father's company was a biotechnology company, so obtaining some biological genes wasn't difficult.

After taking one last look, he decided to collect just one more item and begin the transformation.

It's mainly because I have a bit of obsessive-compulsive disorder.

He turned and glanced at Yun Nian.

The little girl curled up in the corner, holding the ugly rabbit in her arms, its ears drooping to the ground.

She kicked off most of the blanket, exposing her belly, which rose and fell with her breath.

Her mouth was slightly open, and you could see that she was missing a front tooth—it had fallen out last month. She had wrapped it in a tissue and put it under her pillow, saying that the tooth fairy would come and replace it.

Even with the end of the world approaching, she still thinks about the Tooth Fairy.

Yunyi pulled the blanket back up to her chin and stood up.

There's some noise downstairs.

It wasn't the dragging, arrhythmic footsteps of a zombie—it was the sound of a living being.

The footsteps were very light, deliberately suppressed, but they couldn't escape his ears.

Two people were coming from the east and were walking through the supermarket downstairs.

My breathing was rapid, my heart was pounding, but it wasn't fear—it was excitement.

Yunyi stood by the window and looked down.

Eagle Eye automatically focuses in the dark.

Two figures moved between the supermarket shelves, a man and a woman, both carrying bulging bags and holding weapons.

The man was holding a steel pipe, and the woman was holding a kitchen knife.

They were looking for food, their movements were practiced and their teamwork was excellent; it wasn't the first time they'd done something like this.
