The undead have descended upon the world? I possess a sword that can cleave the heavens once more!

Sensing this aura, Liu Musheng's eyes were already filled with coldness.

His gaze pierced through the invisible flames and landed on the two figures whose bodies had been taken over by non-human beings, their murky eyes and distorted expressions reflected in his pupils.

Upon seeing the battle report from Lanhe City, Liu Musheng, who had seen the mixed aura of the Thousand-Faced Corpse and the Lustful Corpse, immediately realized what it was.

It's a method where the Thousand-Faced Corpse and the Lustful Corpse work together to parasitize humans!

However, according to the war report, the humans who were parasitized were completely controlled by the Lustful Corpse.

And thinking back to the two people who had just spoken to him, they displayed normal human logic and normal human reactions.

Liu Musheng immediately realized the key point.

They are not passive victims of parasitism!

They took the initiative!

"Fine, fine, fine!" Liu Musheng's voice was squeezed out through clenched teeth, each word filled with anger. "You actually cooperated with the zombie species, allowing it to parasitize you! You even covered for it!"

He was already furious.

Their actions prove nothing but that they have completely and utterly betrayed humanity! They are willing to become the shells and accomplices of the zombie species!

At this moment, Li Liebiao and his companion, no longer concealing their presence, were rapidly increasing their auras.

Rank 7, Grade C; Rank 7, Grade B; Rank 7, Grade A... Rank 8, Grade C...

It's even improving!

The energy fluctuations, a mixture of the auras of the Thousand Faces and the Lustful Demons, expanded wildly in the cramped space of the reception room, eventually settling at the eighth-tier, grade B level!

At the same time, similar mixed auras also erupted from the others around the two.

One by one, the members of the New Leaf and Fireworks organization, who had been standing quietly in the back with their heads down, released the inhuman energy fluctuations within their bodies.

There were sixth-order and seventh-order individuals, varying in quality, but the essence of their aura was the same: turbid, sticky, and carrying the peculiar stench of the corpse species.

Clearly, with the cooperation of the Thousand-Faced Corpse Species and the Lustful Corpse Species, they were transformed into half-human, half-corpse beings who were parasitized by the Corpse Species but retained their self-awareness.

Li Liebiao—no, he was no longer Li Liebiao at this moment, but an eighth-order Desire Corpse Species—stared intently at Liu Musheng in front of him with his turbid eyes, a strange angle tugging at the corner of his mouth, and let out a chilling laugh.

"Hehehe, the human body is indeed different from those brainless beasts."

Its voice was no longer the deep, resonant mid-to-low tone of Li Liebiao, but had become a sharp yet slightly muffled sound, with each word sounding as if something was wriggling in its throat.

The other eighth-tier lustful corpse that Chairman Wang had transformed into also laughed: "Hehehe, that's right, the human race is indeed amazing. Making you into shells is truly a pleasure."

"They were both afraid of death and incredibly greedy."

It stuck out its tongue and licked its lips.

"They parasitize you humans, and even absorb a constant stream of negative emotions every day. Fear, greed, jealousy, hatred—these things are never lacking in you humans. How wonderful."

The lustful corpse that Li Liebiao had transformed into echoed this sentiment, its eyes scanning Liu Musheng from head to toe: "When the supreme god of lust enslaves your world, I will definitely raise many more—"

It didn't finish its sentence.

Liu Musheng no longer hesitated and waved his right hand forward.

The invisible flames that had surrounded everyone suddenly changed shape under his control, transforming into chains. Each chain precisely wrapped around a body that had been taken over by the Corpse Species.

Then, Liu Musheng clenched his right hand tightly, making a sudden grip.

next moment.

Apart from the two eighth-tier Lustful Corpse Species, all other Lustful Corpse Species below the eighth tier were instantly engulfed by invisible flames.

They didn't even utter a scream before their corpse parts instantly turned into a cloud of black smoke, twisting and struggling in the air for a few moments before dissipating unwillingly. Their human parts, on the other hand, turned into a pile of white powder, just like before.

The two eighth-tier corpse species reacted faster. They sensed something was wrong the moment the chains tightened and darted away, trying to escape the pursuit of the invisible flames.

But it still got a little bit on it.

Just one thing: the aura of those two eighth-tier lustful corpses instantly weakened by 30%!

The mixed aura of the corpse species suddenly dropped a bit, clearly indicating that it had been injured.

At this moment, the two lustful corpses also fell silent.

Their earlier cacophony of laughter had vanished, and for the first time, fear flickered in their murky eyes.

They didn't expect that.

This Liu Musheng, who has always kept a low profile and been a nice guy, is actually so powerful.

They originally thought he was at most a slightly stronger eighth-tier.

But unexpectedly, facing more than a dozen sixth and seventh-level beings and two eighth-level beings of the same level, in just the time it takes to breathe, only the two of them remained in the reception room, and they were even injured!

This truly demonstrates the capabilities of Liu Musheng, the director of the Dayun City Investigation Bureau!

At this moment, Lin Manteng and the two sixth-level beings, who were unaware of the inside story, were still in a daze: How could a perfectly normal person suddenly turn into a corpse?

Liu Musheng glanced at them: "Go and assist the torchbearers outside in maintaining order in Dayun City."

Upon hearing this, the three of them suddenly realized what was happening, jolted awake as if from a dream, and immediately rushed out of the reception room.

Although they didn't know what had happened, they understood that in a battle between eighth-tier beings, even the aftershocks could kill them. Staying would only be a burden and not a help. Running was the best option for everyone.

Liu Musheng didn't stop what he was doing while he was speaking.

He pulled out an earpiece from his waist with his left hand and put it on, while simultaneously waving his right hand, unleashing wave after wave of invisible flames from different directions towards the two eighth-tier lustful corpses.

The two corpses could only flee in panic, trying to evade the pursuit of the invisible flames.

Although he injured the two eighth-tier corpse species with just one strike and forced them to flee in terror, Liu Musheng's eyes remained solemn.

Even the branch leaders of the two largest unofficial ability user organizations in Dayun City, Fireworks and New Leaf, have joined the Corpse Seed side. What about the other wild ability users?

How many of those wild ability users scattered throughout the city, who are being questioned and tested at various collection points, have been parasitized?

How many lustful corpses are lurking in those gathering points?

Most importantly, it was daytime.

The battle between the Torchbearers and the Corpse Species will inevitably be witnessed by a large number of residents of Dayun City, and once the information spreads, it will certainly cause some panic.

The Lustful Corpse Species can rapidly increase its strength by absorbing negative emotions!

Human fear, anxiety, and despair are the best nourishment for them.

Once widespread panic is triggered, those that were originally low-level Lustful Corpse Species will quickly become mid-level, and those that were mid-level will be promoted to high-level.

By then, the situation will truly be out of control.

Thinking of this, Liu Musheng's invisible flames moved even faster.

Although the two Lustful Corpse Seeds were not strong in combat, they were very fast runners.

then.

They smashed through the floor-to-ceiling windows of the reception room, rushed outside the Bureau of Investigation building, and soared into the open sky.

Without any hesitation, Liu Musheng took a step forward and flew out of the broken window like an arrow, chasing after the enemy.

His feet were treading on the void, as if stepping on an invisible staircase, each step shortening the distance between him and the two corpses in front of him.

Although those two corpses were incredibly fast, Liu Musheng, as an eighth-order torchbearer who possessed both wind and fire abilities, was also quite fast!

A gentle breeze appeared around him, wrapping around his limbs and torso, which further increased his already fast speed.

His figure left a blurry afterimage in the air, his black trench coat fluttering behind him.

At the same time, he waved both hands simultaneously, drawing an arc with his left hand and a circle with his right.

Wind in the left hand, fire in the right.

The wind condensed into a transparent vortex in his palm, and fire poured out from between his fingers, intertwining with the vortex.

The wind intensifies the fire, and the fire, aided by the wind, merges with the wind in front of him to form a huge curtain woven from wind and fire.

The curtain rapidly unfurled in mid-air, like a giant net spreading out, quickly enveloping the two fleeing lustful corpses.

The two fleeing Lustful Corpse Species also sensed the extreme danger.

They clearly sensed that if the curtain of wind and fire were to envelop them, they wouldn't even have a chance to turn to ash.

They exchanged a glance, their cloudy pupils conveying a signal.

Then, the lustful corpse that Li Liebiao had transformed into suddenly changed direction and flew off in the opposite direction.

The other vengeful corpse, which was actually the transformation of Chairman Wang, continued to flee madly in the original direction.

Two zombie species, two directions, going in opposite directions.

Liu Musheng narrowed his eyes as well.

Although his range of power was considerable, and the area covered by that wind and fire curtain was enough to cover most of the block, it was still unable to cover the two zombie species running in opposite directions at the same time.

Therefore, we can only kill one first, and then go back to kill the other.

Without any hesitation.

Liu Musheng manipulated the enormous curtain of wind and fire, accelerating its envelopment of the slightly stronger Lustful Corpse, which was transformed from Chairman Wang.

. . .

Just now, Wu You, who had been strolling among the clouds overlooking Dayun City, also stopped.

Suddenly, multiple distress messages sent to their support team rang in his headset.

"Multiple fifth-tier Desire Corpse Species have appeared at Assembly Point A-11-2, Requesting Support!"

"Multiple fifth-tier Desire Corpse Species have appeared at Assembly Point C-11-2, Point 6. Requesting backup!"

. . .

Meanwhile, Wu You, who had been looking down over Dayun City, also noticed something amiss.

Looking down from the height of the clouds, those once orderly gathering points were now beginning to show varying degrees of chaos.

Black smoke was rising from some of the assembly points, black trench coats were running quickly around the perimeter of others, and clear figures were already clashing at the entrances of some assembly points: it was not an escort, not a handover, but a battle!

The scale of the chaos was not large, but the number of cases was large.

Similar situations seem to have occurred in various regions and at various focal points.

The situation is most severe in areas A and C, which are the core activity areas of the New Leaf and Fireworks organizations in Dayun City.

Wu You frowned slightly, a cold glint flashing in his eyes behind his sunglasses.

Firework structure and new leaf structure...

next second.

Wu You's figure disappeared into the clouds.
