Zombie Life Begins in Hongxi Village

When Lin Yi returned to the Marshal's Mansion in Yun County, a sliver of the setting sun still lingered on the horizon.

The trip to Renjia Town yielded far more results than expected—the two judges, Shi Jian and Uncle Jiu, were in place, the framework of the Punishment Department and the Investigation Department was completed, and he had almost wiped out the elite of the Maoshan main lineage.

Not to mention that it also absorbed the blood of Shi Jian and Uncle Jiu.

However, there is one more thing to do first.

The flying zombie in Dafangbo Village can fly and burrow underground, and suck blood from a distance. Although it is a bit ugly, its abilities are indeed quite good.

He opened the gates of hell and summoned King Ai of Zhou from the underworld.

King Ai of Zhou knelt on one knee, his blood-red eyes gleaming faintly in the twilight: "What are your orders, King of the Underworld?"

"Go to Tangfu in Dafangbo Village, Jiahui Town, Yaocheng, Guangxi. There is a flying zombie underground. Find it and bring it back."

"Yes, Hades."

King Ai of Zhou accepted the order and departed, transforming into a streak of black light that shot into the sky.

Just as Lin Yi watched King Zhou Ai's figure disappear into the twilight, a familiar stream of information suddenly surged from the depths of her consciousness—

The reward for the Blue Tear storyline has finally arrived.

"Complete the storyline of 'Call of Heroes'."

Ma Dayong, one of Ma's subordinates, killed Cao Shaolin ahead of time. All the characters in the story, including Tie Niu, Bai Ling, the student, and Uncle Liao, survived. Ma Dayong killed Cao Shaolin's guard squad, Boss Liu, and Cao Ying.

The plot disruption level is S-level.

Reward: Five current-era German elite infantry divisions, totaling 80,000 men.

Note: Soldiers are cyborgs, no different from ordinary people, but without souls, and absolutely loyal.

It possesses 1,510 artillery pieces of various calibers, 3,500 light and heavy machine guns, 185 anti-tank rocket launchers, and 3,000 military trucks...

And enough supplies and ammunition to fight a battle.

Lin Yi leaned back in her armchair, processing the information.

Another S-level reward.

However, this time the reward isn't skills, physique, or magical artifacts, but an army—

Five fully-equipped elite German infantry divisions, totaling 80,000 men, with full German equipment and ammunition supplies.

Soldiers are cyborgs, soulless, and absolutely loyal, which means they don't need leave, have no morale issues, and will not betray their posts.

The question is, what does he need an army for?

He has no intention of engaging in a power struggle.

These 80,000 German infantry divisions are indeed a significant force in Asia, but they are insufficient for competing for supremacy, given that modern armies often number in the millions.

Besides, he's about to move to Hong Kong Island. He can't possibly land there with 80,000 people, can he?

Hong Kong Island is such a small place, the problem of garrisoning 80,000 people is enough of a headache.

However, something is better than nothing. For now, we'll store it in the blue teardrop and take it out whenever we need it.

"I never expected that what my subordinates did would be attributed to me as well."

Lin Yi gained a better understanding of the blue teardrop identification mechanism.

Ma Dayong killed Cao Shaolin, and the credit was given to him.

In the future, some storylines can be handled by subordinates while you sit back and collect the rewards, which will be much more efficient.

Before he could finish his reflections, another wave of information flooded into his consciousness.

Shi Jian, Uncle Jiu, Si Mu, as well as Wang Lin, Zhao Ying, Peng Yunfei, and Li Guoliang—

Everyone's memories and skills flashed through his mind like edited film reels, fast-forwarding through his mind.

At the same time, subtle changes were also taking place in his body.

The energy in his blood operates automatically under the guidance of his evolutionary instincts, integrating all the absorbed skill foundations into his body.

Lightning Strike Fist, Wooden Pole Technique, Talisman Technique, Puppet Technique, Corpse Refining and Driving Technique, Summoning Spirit Technique—

The skills and memories that Shi Jian, Uncle Jiu, and others had cultivated throughout their lives began to feed back and transform his body.

He suddenly opened his eyes.

A blinding bolt of lightning appeared in his palm, and crackling arcs of electricity illuminated the entire main hall with flickering light.

This is not just the lightning technique of the Lightning Strike Fist—after absorbing Shi Jian's blood, he discovered that Shi Jian was actually an extremely rare lightning spirit.

This type of physique is naturally compatible with lightning, making it twice as effective in cultivating lightning techniques. The same Lightning Strike Fist is several times more powerful in Shi Jian's hands than in an ordinary Taoist, precisely because of the blessing of the lightning spirit body.

Now, this Thunder Spirit Body has been absorbed by Lin Yi's evolutionary instincts and integrated into his bloodline.

With a thought, he activated his thunder magic.

Suddenly, dark clouds filled the sky above the Marshal's Mansion, covering an area of ​​about a hundred miles. Thick clouds surged from the horizon, completely swallowing the last rays of the setting sun.

Lightning flashed like snakes in the clouds, silver serpents weaving through the clouds, while muffled thunder rumbled faintly.

With a thought, Lin Yi transformed into a bolt of lightning and vanished from the main hall—a lightning escape technique.

His figure re-condensed above a desolate mountain in the suburbs, hovering in mid-air, surrounded by a layer of electric light.

He stretched his hand towards the sky, his five fingers spread wide.

As if summoned by some irresistible force, bolts of silver lightning as thick as buckets descended from the clouds, like divine punishment, striking precisely above his palm.

Lightning gathered, compressed, and spun in his palm, transforming into a lightning ball no bigger than a fist. Yet, the brightness of that ball rivaled that of the midday sun, illuminating the barren mountains for miles around with crystal clarity.

He launched the lightning ball from his hand.

The moment the lightning ball left his hand, it felt as if all the air in the desolate mountain had been sucked out, followed by a blinding white light that engulfed everything.

boom--

A small mushroom cloud exploded on the mountaintop, and the shockwave sent rocks and soil flying hundreds of meters away. When the dust settled, half of the mountaintop was gone.

Lin Yi looked down at her palm, where the residual electric arcs were still crackling.

He frowned slightly. "What a pity. This Lightning Thunder Fist is just a variation of Palm Thunder. It's not a profound thunder technique and doesn't have any special attribute bonuses. It's a waste of Shi Jian's thunder spirit body."

With Shi Jian's Thunder Spirit Body aptitude, if he could obtain the legendary Five Elements Divine Thunder inheritance, his strength would increase at least several times.

However, now that the Thunder Spirit has taken over his body, combined with his strength, its power has far exceeded the limits that Shi Jian could reach.

He withdrew his palm and tried the Wooden Pole Technique again.

This is a Maoshan wood-based magic that uses the energy of wood to summon a sturdy giant tree out of thin air.

Lin Yi casually raised her right hand forward.

Hundreds of giant trees, each as thick as two people could hug, appeared out of thin air. Each tree was over ten meters long and hovered in mid-air like hundreds of giant arrows ready to be released.

"Go!" Hundreds of giant trees hurtled towards another barren mountain in the distance like cannonballs.

The moment the giant tree struck the mountain, the entire barren mountain trembled violently, and several boulders as tall as two people were smashed to pieces, with debris flying everywhere.

After a round of bombardment, several gaps appeared on the ridgeline of the barren mountain, as if it had been smashed by a giant's fist.

This power is more than a hundred times stronger than what Shi Jian used.

If he were to use the Wooden Pole Technique against Uncle Nine and his disciples, he could turn them into meat patties in one round.

Looking at the devastated mountainside, Lin Yi suddenly had an idea.

The giant trees that had not yet landed stopped in mid-air and began to rearrange themselves under his mental control.

Hundreds of giant trees, as if directed by an invisible hand, were stacked layer upon layer on the top of the barren mountain like building blocks. In no time, a huge square wooden tower, hundreds of meters high, rose from the ground.

Lin Yi nodded in satisfaction.

This thing is more useful for building houses than for fighting enemies.

He didn't dispel the spell, leaving the giant wooden tower standing atop the barren mountain, before transforming into a bolt of lightning and returning directly to the Yun County Marshal's Mansion, leaving behind another unsolved mystery for future generations.
