She moved like the wind, each step covering several meters in an instant, her agility like that of a snake slithering on land.
The surrounding zombies could only catch a glimpse of her for a moment; the next instant, she had vanished without a trace.
Meanwhile, in the north, a young man, with a straw dangling from his mouth, leisurely made his way towards the City of Heaven.
He hummed a little tune, occasionally brushing past zombies on the road.
The zombies seemed to be attracted by his singing and rushed towards him, but whenever they got close, they were frozen in place, turning into stone statues and remaining in their original poses.
A hint of curiosity flashed in the man's eyes as he muttered, "This City of Heaven, I'd like to see who dares to name it that."
After saying that, he continued to walk unhurriedly toward the City of Heaven.
At this moment, three people from different directions are all heading towards the same goal—the City of Heaven.
Meanwhile, in a corner of the city of heaven, Chang Wei was intently observing the two plants he had cultivated.
He has sealed off this botanical garden, which is surrounded by barbed wire and walls, and guarded by dozens of soldiers with guns.
Trucks loaded with zombie corpses would occasionally drive in, serving as nutrients for the plants.
Every vehicle and every person undergoes rigorous inspection to ensure safety.
To protect this botanical garden, Chang Wei specially arranged for Hong Wu to be stationed there.
He himself relied on the power of the Green Demon Vine to protect the Fruit of Life.
After a long period of absorption and evolution, the Green Demon Vine has reached the peak of level eight and may break through to level nine at any time.
With it present, anyone who dares to covet the fruits of life will pay a heavy price.
After a long period of cultivation and waiting, two fruits of life have now ripened, bringing the total to four.
However, even so, it is still far from meeting everyone's needs.
Chang Wei's closest relatives, such as family members, Hoshino Ai, Sato, and even Okino Yoko and Nakano Tensei, each have their own reasons that they cannot refuse, and four fruits are obviously a drop in the ocean.
Chang Wei carefully picked two ripe fruits and gently placed them into a white jade box.
He noticed that if the fruit was not consumed in time, its energy would gradually dissipate, eventually turning it into an ordinary, unremarkable thing.
Therefore, he tried various containers and eventually found that only jade could effectively preserve the fruit's energy.
To this end, Chang Wei specially sent people to search a jade shop and collected more than a dozen jade boxes.
However, the quality of these jade boxes varied greatly, and two of them were even identified as fakes by an experienced jade appraiser.
After putting the white jade box into his storage ring, Chang Wei looked at the remaining nine unripe fruits and couldn't help but feel a little helpless.
He searched almost the entire county before he could barely get two fruits to ripen.
If we want other fruits to ripen, we'd probably have to wipe out all the zombies in the entire city of Tokyo.
Just as Chang Wei was having a headache over this, a bright green vine, about the size of a fist, quietly peeked out from behind him and instantly wrapped tightly around his entire body.
"Little Green, you've been naughty again!" Chang Wei said with a smile, gently scolding her, but there was no blame in his tone.
Upon hearing Chang Wei's words, the green vine immediately released him, its head gently rubbing against Chang Wei's cheek in an unusually affectionate manner.
"Master, Little Green only needs to absorb a little more energy to advance!" The childish voice rang in Chang Wei's mind; it was the voice of the Green Demon Vine.
Upon hearing this, Chang Wei's expression darkened slightly. He knew that the "little bit of energy" that the Green Demon Vine mentioned would require at least tens of thousands of zombies to provide.
Even now, the Life Fruit doesn't have enough nutrients to mature, yet the Green Demon Vine is still thinking about advancing.
Chang Wei couldn't help but feel an even greater pressure on his shoulders.
They thought they had brought back two treasures, but they turned out to be like two bottomless pits, plunging the entire county into endless challenges.
Even after collecting all the remains of the zombies in the surrounding area, it still couldn't satisfy the Green Vine's hunger.
Clearly, its path to advancement requires at least tens of thousands of zombie corpses as nourishment.
Chang Wei knew that such resources were almost impossible to find outside of downtown Tokyo.
However, given their current strength, acting rashly would undoubtedly be tantamount to walking into a trap, carrying extremely high risks.
Although this problem greatly troubled Chang Wei, he knew that the importance of these two plants was irreplaceable.
Therefore, no matter how difficult it is, he must find a way to provide them with enough zombie corpses.
During his conversation with Xiao Lü, Chang Wei promised it that he would find more zombie corpses as soon as possible and instructed it to protect the area and prevent outsiders from intruding.
Little Green firmly stated that it would do everything in its power to protect the fruit of life and not allow anyone to have the opportunity to steal it.
As Chang Wei was leaving, he saw Hong Wu inspecting the vehicles coming in and out with a serious expression.
He couldn't help but laugh:
"Old Hong, why bother yourself with such a small matter? Just let your men handle it."
However, Tokugawa Kōtake shook his head, saying that the importance of the fruit of life was self-evident, and he had to personally oversee it to ensure that nothing went wrong.
Seeing Hongwu's serious attitude, Chang Wei felt a deep respect for him.
This former soldier was decisive and efficient, which gave him a great sense of security.
He could leave the matter to Hongwu and no longer need to worry.
Chang Wei originally intended to go back to his room to rest, but a thought suddenly flashed through his mind:
Isn't Sato on duty at the city wall today?
It has been quite some time since we last met. Why not take this opportunity to visit them?
He started walking towards the eastern city wall.
This city of the heavens is guarded by evolved beings on all four sides in rotation, in order to prevent monotony and boredom from eroding their will.
Before even reaching the city gate tower, Chang Wei heard a commotion ahead, accompanied by a deafening roar as if the air was being torn apart and angry curses.
His heart tightened, and he moved with lightning speed, rushing forward.
"boom!"
A loud crash followed by the sound of a heavy object hitting the ground.
"This is the Heavenly City you speak of? Nothing special, even the evolved beings are so easily defeated!"
A woman's voice rang out, high-pitched and arrogant.
"Cough cough... Don't be so smug. My Heavenly City is full of experts, and I am but a nobody among them. If Chang Wei were here, he could subdue you with one hand!"
Sato's voice sounded slightly disheveled, accompanied by coughing.
Chang Wei appeared at the city gate, and the soldiers all pointed their guns at the stranger in the center.
On the other side, Ada Wong and Saya Takagi were helping Sato, who was kneeling.
Chang Wei's gaze sharpened as he noticed that Sato's clothes were torn to shreds and his face was pale, clearly indicating that he had suffered internal injuries.
Anger surged in Chang Wei's heart. Sato was his close friend, and they had fought side by side since the beginning of the apocalypse. Now, he had been injured by an outsider.
He looked up at the person and saw a woman dressed in alluring clothes, like a sexy wildcat. She had delicate features, her wheat-colored skin was full of vitality, but her eyes were full of disdain.
"I thought you were some great power, but now it seems you're nothing special. Apart from your sturdy city walls, there's nothing else to praise you for."
The woman glanced at Sato disdainfully and continued her mockery. "This Chang Wei you mentioned—just by his name, I don't think he's any hero. Call him out here, let this woman see what he's really capable of!"
Hmph, perhaps, a new ruler will emerge from this place today!
The woman's words were full of untamed and wildness; she believed only in power and revered only the stronger power.
Upon hearing this, everyone, including Sato, showed anger on their faces, their hearts burning with rage as if they wanted to incinerate the other party.
What? You want to fight? I'd like to see if your guns are faster, or if my movements are more agile!
The woman merely sneered at the crowd's reaction, completely unconcerned.
I utterly disdain weaklings like you. Unless a more powerful expert emerges, I hereby declare this land to belong to Yuan Yinzi!
The commotion had attracted a lot of attention, and those with good eyesight, whether civilians or soldiers, rushed to inform their respective leaders.
Chang Wei was about to step forward when she saw Shima Kenji driving up at high speed. Seeing Sato's condition, she immediately got out of the car, ran to Sato's side, and asked with concern:
Are you ok?
Sato shook his head to indicate that he was fine, and looked at her with some confusion. "Why are you alone? Where are the others? With such a commotion here, they should have all received the news."
Upon hearing this, Sima Jianren was also somewhat confused. He looked at Chang Wei, who also looked puzzled and did not respond immediately.
Sima Jianren stared at the round silver coin opposite him, his eyes filled with a chilling intent. For some reason, three evolved beings had appeared at the same time today. This was only one of them; there was another one in each of the other two directions.
As soon as they arrived, they began to provoke us. Some of the others had already gone out, some were unable to move freely, and the rest went to the other two city walls.
Upon hearing this, Sato, Chang Wei, and the others were all startled. Sato hurriedly pressed for an answer:
How strong are they?
Shima Kenjin smiled bitterly. He had heard that a one-armed giant had come to the southern wall guarded by Takagi Saya, and with just one slash, Takagi Saya was sent flying ten meters away!
471 Apocalyptic Female Master, Yuan Yinzi!
On the north side of the city wall, Ada Wong was fighting a young adversary with bizarre abilities that could instantly petrify people.
Although Ada Wong's strength had reached the peak of level seven, she could only barely maintain an undefeated record against such an opponent.
