Chapter 8: One star evolution
Chapter 8: One star evolution
Ye Zhongming’s back felt cold and his mind was spinning to find a way to deal with them.
Indeed, he was someone who revived and he had strong experience and skills. In a short time, he would become the strongest few people in this city and country.
But now, he was still a normal person. He could deal with a few zombies that just evolved but not a group of a dozen of bed bugs.
These bed bugs didn’t have terrifying abilities but a swarm of them wasn’t something that a normal person could deal with. Those sharp teeth and tough fur, just one slash and one would get hurt. Moreover, the liquid in their mouth was really corrosive, just one bit was enough to cause organs to fail. That meant that unless you were above four star and had strong healing ability, you would be handicapped forever.
In the short time that Ye Zhongming was thinking, these bed bugs were already at the door and they smashed into the wooden door. Some started to hit the windows. Luckily, the glass windows were strong, if not both of them would already be attacked.
But safety was just temporary. These bed bugs realised that the outcome wasn’t good. Some of the smart ones opened their mouth and spat out the green liquid at the window. They couldn’t see what was going on behind the wooden door but on the side of the window, the glass was being corroded at visible speeds.
“Go!”
Ye Zhongming knew that he couldn’t stay here. Unless he became a one star expert, if not he would have to flee.
Mu Xinfei who was being dragged back saw the hole in the glass opening up, she covered her mouth in disbelief. The attack from the bed bugs shocked her.
“Head underground.”
Mu Xinfei was a former nine star expert and her temperament was really good. After being dragged by Ye Zhongming, she called out a location. Upstodatee from n(0)/v𝒆/lbIn/.(co/m
Ye Zhongming’s eyes lit up. He wanted to drag her to run to another villa, who knew that there would be an underground space there?
Compared to fleeing, Ye Zhongming loved to fight. If he could kill these bugs, he might even get some benefits.
The modified potion was prepared and after using it, he could become a one star expert but that needed a process of five minutes. He wanted to flee and didn’t have the time at all. But if he had five minutes, the outcome would be totally different.
Following her directions, they fell back to the kitchen and behind the wheel was metal door leading underground!
The two of them headed in at their fastest speed. At this time, the bug closest to them had chased into the kitchen.
The underground had a voice-controlled light and it lit up when they entered.
This was a 20-30 square foot room and on one side were numerous wine cabinets filled with foreign wine. On the other side were several barrels which should be filled with red wine. What was most attractive was the giant safe inside the wall.
This thing was obviously not what a normal family should have.
But Ye Zhongming didn’t care about this thing. Even if the safe was filled with gold and jewelry, it was worth nothing in the apocalypse.
He took out a syringe and absorbed the one star potion before shooting it into the vein on his hand.
This was the fastest way to absorb the potion and was much more useful than just absorbing it. Of course, the pain that one had to go through was more too.
Mu Xinfei stood at the side and saw all this, her eyes were filled with anticipation.
This world had only given her terror and shock up until this point, she wanted to see the side that was filled with hope.
Outside, the bed bugs were attacking the metal door. Although it was strong but under their strong acid, it too couldn’t last for too long.
After Ye Zhongming injected the one star potion, he felt pain from within. This feeling was unbearable but he felt excitement he had never felt before. He was familiar with this. In his last life, he experienced this six times. His body felt pain like never before, but his mind felt joy as this pain represented evolution, represented strength, represented a whole knew gene evolution direction.
The impurities in his body were being excreted as sweat and the pain reduced. After which was the joy of each part of his body, each cell jumping for joy as if it was enjoying a new life.
Hearing, sight, and even smell was greatly improved.
More importantly, power was surging in his body which made Ye Zhongming want to roar.
He knew that he successfully evolved, now his strength was 5-6 times that of a normal person.
This was the one star potion, this was the modified one star potion!
Pata!
The decently thick metal door of the underground room couldn’t block the bed bugs for long. Right when Ye Zhongming finished evolving, those mutated fellows charged in.
Ye Zhongming looked at the dozen of them, holding his blade tightly before heading forwards.
The blade flashed and the leading mutated bug was split into two. Dark green liquid spurted all around. The basic blade was used to unimaginable strength in the hands of a one star expert.
They were trying to flee and were now the ones attacking, this stunned those bugs which had a bit of intelligence.
But Ye Zhongming didn’t stop just because of that. The surging strength in his body made him crave battle. Although they were just the size of rats, it made it annoying for him to slice but that didn’t affect his desire to fight. After evolving, it allowed him to use skills much easier.
He waved twice and another two of them were beheaded.
The shells of these mutated bugs became really firm and normal blades couldn’t hurt them. But Ye Zhongming was really strong and his slashes were precise. He aimed at where the shell connected so things looked really simple. This was the show of ten years of experience and skill.
Three friends were killed at once and that alerted those bugs. They roared and the bloodthirst in their eyes became stronger. All of them charged at Ye Zhongming, and many of them even jumped up from the ground to attack his head. One could see the sharp evolved teeth and even the flesh that was on it.
.
Mu Xinfei covered her mouth from fear the moment they started to attack, afraid that she would make a sound and affect him.
Looking at them shooting over to attack, Ye Zhongming wasn’t shocked. Instead, he was filled with joy. He slashed and those bugs were split into two before falling onto the ground and dying.
At the same time, his body moved. He charged into the crowd and kicked up. Six times the strength of humans caused those bugs to fly out. Even if they weren’t dead, blood spurted out and they lost their ability to fight.
In just a blink of an eye, Lu Li wiped out those 20 plus bed bugs!
