Inside the three-story building, it was dim and lightless.

Wang Yong arrived on the third floor.

A slender woman sat on a chair, trembling.Full novel: Myriad Mirrors — read the rest free on N​o⁠v​e⁠l​C⁠o​d⁠e​x⁠.​o⁠r​g⁠

Beside her, a man with a buzz cut and dark skin held a controller, intently playing a video game.

On the screen in front of him, the visuals were dark and gloomy.

A warrior in full armor, with a large shield in his left hand and a straight sword in his right, was battling the massive, flame-burning Giant King.

On the screen next to it, scenes of intimacy were playing.

The alluring sounds Wang Yong had heard earlier were coming from there.

Wang Yong, however, was not surprised; he had seen such scenes before.

Everyone else thought his cousin, Wang Gangjian, was with a woman here, but in reality, Wang Gangjian was just playing games.

The reason Wang Gangjian deliberately played such alluring sounds was simply because he didn’t want people to think he was wasting his ambition on trivial pursuits.

After all, Wang Gangjian was the boss of Black Fang Security Company, managing hundreds of people.

If his subordinates all knew their boss was playing games, wouldn’t he lose all his authority?

But Wang Gangjian really wanted to play, so every time he would put on this act.

He would bring a woman to this three-story building, play alluring sounds to pretend he was busy, and cover up the sound of his gaming.

Just then, a scream echoed from the screen.

Wang Gangjian reluctantly put down the controller, “This giant is really hard to beat.”

“Alright, what is it?” He looked at his cousin, Wang Yong.

Wang Yong immediately recounted in detail everything he had seen in the unfinished building, leaving nothing out.

Wang Gangjian’s expression was casual at first.

But it quickly became serious.

“Advanced zombie, it must be an Advanced zombie.”

Wang Gangjian said gravely, “What did Zheng Lao from the research institute say?”

Wang Yong shook his head, “They didn’t say anything.

I even pressed them about who saved them, but they evaded the question.”

Wang Gangjian sighed lightly, “This Donghu City is really not a good place to stay; Advanced zombies are appearing one after another.”

“A while ago, didn’t Zhao Hong even greet us, saying an Advanced zombie appeared at his Xiao Runfa Shopping Mall, and then it disappeared without a trace?”

Wang Yong asked, “What should we do?”

Wang Gangjian glared at him, “What else can we do?

Strengthen our defenses, and don’t go near that area.”

“Also, ask the Linjiang Army for some support.”

“We are a force established under the Linjiang Army’s directive.

Now that Advanced zombies are frequently appearing in Donghu City, how can we not ask them for support?”

Wang Yong chuckled, “You’re still the smartest, Big Brother.”

Wang Gangjian was about to pick up his controller when he suddenly remembered something and said, “You’ve returned just in time.

Zhao Hong bought a batch of canned goods and medicine from us.

Take some people and deliver them.”

“Huh?

Didn’t he always complain that things were expensive?

Why does he want them now?” Wang Yong was startled.

Wang Gangjian casually replied, “The Spirit Hound Gang has always lacked medicine.

At first, he acted tough and said he wouldn’t buy, only because their medicine hadn’t run out yet.

Now that the medicine is gone, he naturally has no choice but to grit his teeth and pay the high price.”

Wang Yong chuckled, “That’s true.”

“Then I’ll take some people to deliver the goods now.”

“Go on, go on.” Wang Gangjian waved his hand without looking back, then began another round of suffering.

On the other side.

Wang Yong and two men got into a Wuling minivan and drove towards the Spirit Hound Gang’s headquarters, Haotai Hotel.

The Spirit Hound Gang had several strongholds, and Haotai Hotel was just the main base.

In addition, there were the northern greenhouses and the southern small fish farms, specifically providing food.

Because Donghu City was not large and resources were relatively abundant, the Spirit Hound Gang and Black Fang Security Company had always coexisted peacefully, with no life-or-death struggles.

An hour later, the minivan arrived outside Haotai Hotel.

The car stopped at the entrance, and the man next to him was about to get out when Wang Yong pulled him back.

“Something’s wrong, it’s too quiet.”

“The Spirit Hound Gang is never like this.”

Wang Yong’s face was serious.

He keenly sensed something was amiss.

It was broad daylight, and the Spirit Hound Gang members were usually gambling and brawling in groups of three to five.

Every time he came to deliver goods, he could usually hear noisy sounds from inside.

This time, it was eerily quiet.

It was as if…

everyone had disappeared.

“Look carefully.” Wang Yong whispered.

The two men nodded and craned their necks to look.

One of them suddenly exclaimed, “Brother Yong, there’s a corpse there, a mutilated corpse!”

Wang Yong followed his gaze and indeed saw a corpse.

To describe it as a corpse was a bit inaccurate.

Because only a small section of an arm and a lower leg remained.

“Quick, go, go!”

Wang Yong swallowed hard and roared.

There were body parts on the ground, indicating that Haotai Hotel must have been attacked.

Whether it was zombies or some outsiders, their strength was definitely formidable.

Because Zhao Hong, after all, was a Level 1 Transcendent.

The enemy who could make Zhao Hong disappear without a trace must be incredibly powerful.

The only thing they could do now was to escape as quickly as possible!

Vroom vroom vroom!

The minivan sped away, kicking up dust, moving incredibly fast.

However, they hadn’t driven far.

Several figures appeared on the rooftop ahead.

Wang Yong looked through the car window and clearly saw two figures like iron towers.

They were practically moving small mountains.

Every movement seemed to shake the ground.

Their faces were ferocious, their expressions bloodthirsty, somewhat similar to zombies, yet with slight differences.

Beside them were two giant dogs.

Wang Yong had seen those two giant dogs before; they were precisely Zhao Hong’s Er Huang (Second Yellow) and Da Huang (Big Yellow).

Advanced zombies!

And there were two of them!

Zhao Hong’s two dogs had even abandoned Zhao Hong and submitted to these two Advanced zombies!

Wang Yong’s heart almost burst out of his chest.

He frantically roared, “Speed up, rush through!

Don’t stop!”

The driver was also terrified, stomping on the accelerator, wishing he could jump into the engine and pedal the wheels himself.

Little Leopard saw a car moving.

The scent of living people immediately stirred its bloodthirsty desire.

It bared its fangs and was about to charge forward on the spot.

Da Huang and Er Huang were the same, their aggression extremely potent.

“Roar.”

Little Tiger, however, let out a low growl.

The sound was full of menace and immediately suppressed them.

Little Leopard, Da Huang, and Er Huang’s voices all lowered, sounding a bit wronged.

Zoom!

The minivan sped away under the watchful eyes of the two zombies and two dogs.

Wang Yong’s heart pounded wildly.

“Are they catching up?!

Are they catching up?!

I can still accelerate!”

The driver roared.

“Ugh…

no…

ugh…”

Wang Yong vomited several times before he could barely sit upright.

“You should really…

ugh…

practice your driving skills…”

The driver gave an awkward smile.

Wang Yong looked behind him.

The four figures accelerated towards Haotai Hotel.

In the blink of an eye, they entered the hotel, their traces completely gone.

Wang Yong suddenly pieced everything together.

He knew.

The Spirit Hound Gang had likely been wiped out by those two Advanced zombies.

Zhao Hong had a high probability of being dead.

Haotai Hotel and its surroundings had already become the territory of those two Advanced zombies!

“Go back quickly!

This matter must be told to the boss immediately!

Ugh…” Wang Yong roared.

“Okay, I understand, just don’t throw up on me.” The driver nodded.
