Apocalypse: Become stronger by absorbing flames at the start; my name is the Flame Emperor.

"We're surrounded!"

"They seem to be waiting for orders; there might be a zombie king here."

Liu Shiyun composed herself.

He continued his analysis: "It doesn't make sense that the Zombie King didn't order them to act. Unless, it's wary of them."

Lin Yu gave her an appreciative look. As expected of someone who had founded a large company, she was quite intelligent.

In this situation, anyone else would definitely be doomed, but if he wants to leave, he can still fight his way out.

Just then, footsteps sounded.

Ten more level-one zombies came down from the second floor and lined up in a row.

Lin Yu gasped.

Did we really break into a zombie lair?

"roar!"

A roar rang out, and the first-tier zombies quickly parted to make way.

"Is it the Zombie King?"

Lin Yu looked towards the stairwell.

A man dressed in a black suit walked down. He looked no different from a normal person, except that his face was bloodless and very pale.

He walked down step by step, a smile on his face the whole time.

His black suit was very clean, and even his hair seemed to have been styled with hair wax.

He looked very elegant and was a typical handsome man.

He stepped forward, bowed slightly to Lin Yu in a gentlemanly manner, and said, "Magician, I've long admired your name."

Upon hearing this, Lin Yu was startled.

Only three people in the world know that his code name is Magician.

His younger sister Lin Xiaoyou, his childhood friend Wang Ergou, and Chen Jing'er, and even Liu Shiyun who is by his side, do not know his true identity.

At this moment, however, it was accurately identified by someone of unknown origin.

"Do you think I'm a magician?"

"certainly."

"I didn't even know I was a magician, so what makes you think that?"

"Intuition! My intuition is always very accurate," the young man said with a smile.

Lin Yu remained silent.

"So, are you a human, or a zombie?"

"Hmm... how should I put this question?" The young man seemed a little conflicted.

After a moment, he said, "I'm human. Even after being bitten by a zombie, I retained my sanity. Do you understand?"

"So you're human, but you've become the zombie king of this place?"

"You could say that."

"666, you're a human, but you've become the zombie king."

Lin Yu really wanted to give him a thumbs up.

"So you're planning to attack us now?"

"I had originally planned to do this, but you barged in and disturbed my sleep."

The young man paused at this point.

"But seeing it's you, I changed my mind. My gut tells me I can't kill you, and it's more in my best interest to be friends."

"Can the Zombie King be friends with humans?"

"What's wrong with the world now?" The young man always had a smile on his face, like a gentleman.

Lin Yu looked at the zombies around him, lost in thought.

The zombie king in front of me, who was transformed from a human, is incredibly powerful.

He could sense that there was a tremendous power within the other person's body.

Lin Yu immediately glanced at the ranking list.

really!

Great Xia Kingdom Rank Ranking:

First Place: A Humble Gentleman, First Rank

Second place: Master Brother, Level 1

There are already two rank one players on the rank leaderboard.

"Are you Master?" Lin Yu asked, looking at the Zombie King.

Because on the ranking list of Yunnan Province, only Master Brother is ranked at the top, and he is the only first-level expert in Yunnan Province.

"It's me!"

The young gentleman smiled.

Lin Yu smiled and said, "That figure that's been watching me, wasn't it you?"

Earlier, when I came out of the Olma supermarket, there was a figure standing on the GG sign.

And when he killed the first Tier 1 zombie, the figures on the rooftop of the low building seemed to be watching him.

"It's not exactly surveillance. Looking around this town, there are a few strong people, but the one I value the most is you, Magician."

The master looked at Lin Yu and said, "I would like to invite you to cooperate in killing another zombie king."

"Is there another zombie king in this town?"

"Yes, and it's the kind that's about to break through to the second tier, or even has already broken through. But it's different from me; it's a pure zombie."

"You overestimate me. I'm not even at level one, how could I possibly kill a level two zombie king?"

Lin Yu shrugged, indicating that he was powerless to help.

But then the master said, "That's easy!"

"roar!"

He roared a few words at the level one zombies behind him, not understanding what they were saying.

The next moment, five of the first-tier zombies slowly stepped forward.

Lin Yu narrowed his eyes, preparing for battle.

However, what happened next was quite terrifying.

The five zombies raised their hands, held their heads and chins, and then twisted them violently.

"Crack!"

Five heads were twisted off and fell to the ground, rolling straight in front of Lin Yu, covered in blood.

"This is my sincerity: five Tier 1 crystal cores. You should have saved up a few yourself. Together, they'll be enough for you to advance to Tier 1."

The master continued, "After it's done, I'll give you fifteen first-tier crystal cores."

"Give me five more, otherwise I won't be able to reach level one." Lin Yu thought for a moment, somewhat tempted.

"What about your own inventory?"

"I've only encountered four Tier 1 zombies, and I gave them all away after I got them. I don't have a single one on me now."

Lin Yu shrugged, looking completely innocent.

I don't believe you for a second!

The master's face twitched, and he cursed inwardly, almost losing his gentlemanly composure.

However, he still selected five more level-one zombies and roared commands at them.

Then, five more heads rolled over.

Lin Yu was overjoyed. He unleashed a burst of flames, controlling the burning of the head and leaving behind ten crystal cores.

Liu Shiyun took the initiative to go up and pick up the crystal core.

In this standoff, it's impossible to let Lin Yu pick it up, as it would easily expose a weakness to the opponent.

"Thank you very much, Master. Wait until I reach the first level, then we'll go kill that zombie king together." Lin Yu was very happy.

"The forums are in an uproar over the Hundred Nations Battle. Do you think our Great Xia Kingdom can win the championship?" Master Brother suddenly asked.

"The championship can only belong to our Great Xia; no one can take it away from us," Lin Yu declared confidently.

"Haha, well said! If I could represent Great Xia in the competition, I would definitely teach those foreign bastards a lesson in why flowers are so red." Master Brother also spoke with great pride.

It seems that every person from the Great Xia, regardless of their strength, possesses a sense of national self-confidence and pride.

They are absolutely united when faced with external enemies.

"When the time is right, I'd like to conquer Japan. Are you interested?"

"How could I be absent from such an important event? Count me in, I definitely won't be absent."

The master was filled with boundless enthusiasm.

Horses trampling cherry blossoms—what an exciting and anticipated feat!

"See you tomorrow!"

"Okay, see you tomorrow."

After saying that, Lin Yu led the two women out of the hotel, and the tens of thousands of zombies outside immediately parted to make way for them.

Their movements were synchronized and uniform.

Just like a trained soldier.

The master watched Lin Yu's departing figure, his eyes flashing.

He had considered countless times taking action to capture Lin Yu, turn him into a zombie, and make him his subordinate.

Unfortunately, he wasn't confident.

Even though he was already at Tier 1 Level 3, while Lin Yu was only Tier 0, he still wasn't confident.

Lin Yu took the two women to a different hotel.

As soon as he lay down on the bed, he suddenly felt a terrifying power awakening within him.

then.

Flames suddenly burst forth from his body, slowly turning from yellow to crimson.

"Ah! Brother Yu, there's a fire!"

On the bed next to her, Liu Shiyun was startled by the sudden burst of flames.

The newly found hotel also had a lot of bloodstains, indicating that a zombie invasion had occurred.

She dared not sleep alone in a room, so she had to find a double room.

She and her daughter slept in one bed, while Lin Yu slept in another.

Just now, flames suddenly erupted from Lin Yu's body, setting the blankets on fire.

Hearing Liu Shiyun's exclamation, Lin Yu also realized what was happening and hurriedly withdrew the flames back into his body, consuming the large fire on the quilt.

"Is this... the evolution complete?"
