Zombie World: Starting as an apprentice of the Thunder King

Lin Bei looked at the giant werewolf that was at least ten feet tall, his face showing not much surprise, but rather a bit of curiosity.

"You Western things, once they turn into dogs, they actually look quite decent."

The werewolf viscount let out a deafening roar, then swung his hand violently: "Tear him apart!"

Dozens of werewolves pounced at the same time, their sharp claws whistling through the air as they reached for Lin Bei.

"Hahaha, then let me see what's so special about you hybrid species!"

Lin Bei took a step forward, and lightning suddenly exploded in his palm: "Thunderous Might!"

A thick bolt of lightning shot out from his palm, slamming into the foremost werewolves and exploding instantly!

But there were a lot of werewolves, and the space in the church was limited.

Although Lin Bei's lightning magic is powerful, it cannot cover all directions at the same time.

Several werewolves attacked from the side, their sharp claws whistling as they reached for his waist and abdomen.

Lin Bei used the Yu Step technique to dodge three times in quick succession, while simultaneously drawing his Demon-Slaying Sword and sweeping it horizontally: "Slay Demons!"

The sword energy slashed horizontally, cutting the two werewolves in half at the waist.

Then more werewolves pounced on him, surrounding him completely.

"Hmph, you barbarians, let me show you the magic of Kyushu!"

"All trees, obey my command! Let the green wood form a prison, confining heaven and earth! Rise!"

Several thick wooden stakes burst from the church floor, knocking the werewolf at the front of the charge away.

Although those werewolves were extremely fast, they couldn't utilize their advantage in confined spaces.

They suffered heavy losses after being bombarded by wooden stakes and lightning.

The werewolf viscount could no longer sit still. He suddenly jumped down from behind the podium, his huge body crashing into Lin Bei like a meatball.

Lin Bei raised his sword to block, but was knocked back several steps by the force, and his arm went numb.

"This kid's lightning magic is too much of a counter to us!" roared a werewolf baron.

"Let's attack together! Wear him down!"

The werewolf viscount pounced again, this time wielding a massive cleaver.

Lin Bei dodged the cleaver to the side, then slammed a punch into the werewolf viscount's abdomen: "Thunderbolt!"

The lightning exploded, numbing half of the werewolf viscount's body and momentarily slowing his movements.

Lin Bei pressed his advantage, unleashing three consecutive strikes with the Demon-Slaying Sword: "Break Evil! Sever Bones! Split Mountains!"

The sword energy crisscrossed, leaving three deep, bone-revealing wounds on the werewolf viscount.

The viscount let out a miserable howl, clutching his wound and staggering backward, a hint of fear finally appearing in his eyes: "You...you're not an ordinary cultivator!"

"Of course not."

The werewolf viscount's expression changed drastically.

Although he didn't know much about the cultivation world in Kyushu, he had heard of Maoshan, one of the top cultivation sects in this land.

"Hehe, let's taste the magic again!"

"Purifying Mantra for Heaven and Earth! Disperse the Impure Qi!"

Lin Bei made a hand seal, and a pale golden halo spread from his palm, dispelling most of the yin energy in the church.

The werewolf viscount was enveloped in that golden light, his whole body trembled violently, and he let out a painful howl.

"What kind of magic is this?!" he roared as he lunged at them again.

Lin Bei neither dodged nor evaded, but thrust out his sword: "Lightning Flash!"

Lightning shot from the sword tip and struck the werewolf viscount in the chest.

The lightning exploded, further exacerbating his injuries.

"you……"

The werewolf viscount struggled to his feet, pointing tremblingly at Lin Bei, his eyes filled with fear.

He was a werewolf from Europe. Although he had heard of the various magical spells in the Eastern cultivation world, this was his first time experiencing them firsthand.

The power of this lightning magic was more deadly than any weapon he had ever seen.

Making lightning with your own hands? Is there no justice in this world?

Lin Bei, sword in hand, crackling with lightning, slowly approached: "What's your name?"

My name is William Green.

The werewolf viscount's voice trembled slightly, but he quickly straightened his back. "By order of the Blood Wolf Duke, I have come to Kyushu to establish a new territory."

"The Duke?"

Lin Bei raised an eyebrow. "And a duke?"

A hint of arrogance flashed in William Green's eyes: "The Blood Wolf Duke is one of the most powerful werewolves in Europe."

"I'm not the only one who came to Kyushu this time; there's also the Werewolf Count, the Vampire Count..."

He suddenly stopped halfway through his sentence, as if realizing he had said too much, and abruptly shut up.

Just then, the church doors were suddenly kicked open.

A dark figure swept in from outside the door with astonishing speed.

After the figure landed, it revealed itself to be another werewolf.

He was several sizes taller than the Viscount, with dark gray-black hair and an even more violent aura.

Taking advantage of Lin Bei's momentary lapse in concentration, William Green suddenly deflected Lin Bei's sword and retreated rapidly.

"Lord Leo!"

The werewolf viscount's eyes flashed with respect upon seeing the newcomer, before he glared fiercely at Lin Bei. "My lord, this Taoist priest from Kyushu has killed many of our descendants!"

Count Leo walked slowly into the church, his dark golden eyes sweeping over Lin Bei as he spoke in a low voice.

"Kyushu practitioner? Thunder method?"

"Interesting. I've heard of the Thunder and Lightning Dharma King of your Maoshan sect. Are you his disciple?"

"You're quite well-informed."

Lin Bei gripped his sword, shifting his gaze from Count Leo to the window.

A dozen or so dark figures appeared outside the church at some point, and more werewolves were closing in.

It was clear that the church had already been surrounded when the count entered.

Count Leo chuckled softly, showing no hurry to make a move.

Instead, he observed Lin Bei with great interest, like a cat toying with a mouse.

"A cultivator at the mage level who has managed to fight my people this far and still be alive, you've got some skill."

"But... do you think you can handle two marquises?"

The moment the words left his mouth, an even colder aura emanated from the church dome.

Lin Bei suddenly looked up and saw dozens of bats flying in through the gaps in the dome.

The bats transformed into human forms the moment they landed, each one pale-faced, dressed in a black suit, with blood-red eyes.

The leader was taller than the others, his face was ashen, his lips were blood-red, and his two sharp teeth gleamed coldly in the candlelight.

He walked slowly to the werewolf count's side by side, the two counts standing side by side.

"vampire?"

"When did you vampires and werewolves become allies?"

Lin Bei's gaze narrowed slightly; he hadn't expected that werewolves and vampires would join forces.

Count Carlos, the vampire, chuckled lightly: "This is merely a temporary cooperation for the purpose of invading the East."

"When interests are at stake, even enemies can join forces. You Easterners should understand this better than I do."

Count Carlos looked at Lin Bei, his greed undisguised: "I have never tasted the blood of cultivators from the Nine Provinces."

"I've heard that the blood of you cultivators contains a thousand times more spiritual energy than that of ordinary people..."

He licked his lips. "I can't wait."

Count Leo glanced at him: "Carlos, as agreed, his body belongs to me."

"You'll talk after you beat me."

Count Carlos, the vampire, chuckled and then waved to the vampires behind him: "Go on, but don't kill them. I want to drink them alive."
