In a frigid apocalypse, she fed her boyfriend until he became a zombie king.

"Stop crying, you look perfect right now." There was even a hint of pity in the head instructor's tone.

"Pervert," Wenren Lei commented.

No one was paying attention to Wenren Lei over there, so he took the opportunity to raise his wrist, revealing the communication bracelet hidden under his sleeve, and whispered, "Brother Yan, how's it going on your end?"

Fu Yan sent me a message.

They learned the truth about the brewery and destroyed it.

"Did you manage to escape?"

There were too many humans and puppet instructors coming to surround and kill them, so the trainees split into groups and ran in different directions.

Wenren Lei glanced at Kong Weian, who was crying his heart out at the bottom of the pit: "Even in this state, is he still continuing to summon cream?"

Fu Yan had keen hearing and heard Kong Weian's roar from a great distance.

[It may not have been summoned by him; managing trainees and suppressing riots were commands ingrained in the bones of these puppet instructors.]

"Keep running, and let me know when you get out."

Are you safe?

Surrounded by a birch forest that looked like a scene from a horror movie, Wenren Lei chuckled bitterly, "It's quite safe, don't worry."

I'll come find you soon.

"1000, take my brother with you, I won't stop you." Kong Wei'an ignored the head instructor's attempts to comfort him and spoke in a hoarse voice.

Wenren tearfully asked, "Don't you want to see him?"

Kong Wei'an, unwilling to emerge from the pit, said wearily, "If you won't see me, just say I'm dead."

"Oh." Wenren Lei suddenly became very simple and honest. "Then we'll be going."

He has already memorized the location of the Corpse King; he'll just have Brother Yan come and take care of him later.

Kong Wei'an is quite lucid now, but no one knows what he will become in the future. It's best to kill him now to prevent the research institute from having any more designs on this place.

Wenren Lei carried 0001 on his back, ready to make a quick getaway.

"Kong Wei'an, do you take me for a dead man?" The head instructor stood up, looking down at the bottom of the pit with the same gaze he would give a stray dog. "You betrayed me to my face."

"Oh right, I forgot about you, you old beast." Wenren Lei turned around, raised the Liuxing pistol, aimed at the chief instructor's head, and fired.

The head instructor reacted quickly, immediately dodging behind a tree. The bullet struck Kong Weian's tree trunk, splattering golden liquid.

Wenren Lei chuckled twice: "I'm sorry, Brother Wei'an, I hurt you by mistake."

"Kong Wei'an, aren't you going to make a move?" the head instructor asked from behind a tree trunk.

Kong Wei'an remained unmoved and did not show his face, simply saying indifferently, "1000, let's go. He knows this forest very well; you can't kill him. Don't waste your time."

Wenren Lei put away his gun: "Alright, alright, I'm off, good brother."

Seeing this, the chief instructor peeked out from behind the tree and fired at Wenren Lei's back.

Kong Wei'an immediately manipulated the birch tree to block Wenren Lei's back.

Little did anyone know that Wenren Lei was prepared. He bypassed Kong Weian's tree and fired his gun in one swift motion.

The head instructor, shot in the right arm, quickly ducked behind a tree trunk, clutching his wound and shouting angrily, "Kong Wei'an!"

With a gentle smile on her lips, Wenren Lei bent down and placed 0001 behind a tree. A long sword materialized in her hand and dangled on the ground. Dragging the hilt, she slowly walked towards the head instructor.

"Instructor, have I been too lenient with you?"

The sound of the knife tip scraping the ground was exceptionally clear in the silent birch forest.

The head instructor finally sensed the panic; the excruciating pain from his wounds made him gasp for breath: "Kong Wei'an, save me."

"All you can do is call for outside help, is that all you're good for?" Wenren Lei approached the tree trunk step by step.

Kong Wei'an said wearily, "Good luck to you."

After saying that, he manipulated the tree branch to sweep the soil around the small pit into it, and buried himself again.

The long sword swung down suddenly, and the head instructor crouched down to dodge, the dull thud of breaking wood exploding right next to his scalp.

Wenrenlei drew his long sword and slashed at the head instructor again.

The head instructor is a wind elementalist; his level isn't high, but it's just enough for escaping.

However, Wenren Lei, through long-term training, was able to keep up with his speed while dodging the bullets fired by the instructor.

Where the instructor had just hidden, a pool of blood remained, mixed with the golden sap from the tree trunk, slowly seeping into the soil.

"It's almost time," the head instructor suddenly said in a low voice.

Wenren Lei sneered, "It's about time."

He caught up with the head instructor and plunged a knife into his heart.

The instructor collapsed to the ground, squeezing out a hoarse scream: "Do you know why I, with such a low level of superpower, was able to become the head instructor...?"

"No interest." Wenren Lei pulled the knife out of his chest, then stabbed him again. "Aren't you dead yet?"

The head instructor, barely able to speak, forced a laugh, revealing blood-stained teeth, and said haltingly, "It's because... my blood... can drive zombies mad more than ordinary people... Kong Wei'an... have eaten and drunk your fill... and get to work... today... everyone in the manor... will be buried with me..."

He spat out a mouthful of blood, his head lolled to the side, and he died completely.

Just then, the entire forest suddenly erupted in chaos, with the trunks of the birch trees twisting and trembling wildly.

Wenren Lei slowly turned her head to look at the pit: "Brother Wei'an, can you really not do this? Your brother is still here."

The soil in the pit was pushed upwards, swaying back and forth. The next second, soil particles flew everywhere, and Kong Weian's head, like a spring-loaded doll in a prank box, suddenly sprang out.

Unlike the prank dolls, Kong Weian's neck was connected to a thin vine.

Wenren Lei looked up at Kong Weian in mid-air and exclaimed, "Wow, amazing! A skyscraper built from scratch!"

"Hehe—"

Kong Wei'an charged straight at Wenren Lei.

Wenren Lei lightly leaped from the spot and landed on the top of a birch tree. Kong Weian's face missed, and he crashed into the ground, creating a half-meter-deep crater.

"Damn, if you get bitten, you'll end up with pieces all over the place."

With his mouth full of dirt, Kong Wei'an raised his head and once again drove the vines toward Wenren Lei.

Taking advantage of this lull, Wenren Lei quickly transformed the entire birch forest into water elemental.

The birch trees were controlled by Kong Weian's wood elemental ability, so Wenren Lei couldn't move them and could only elementalize the exposed ground.

The entire forest looked as if it were floating above a body of water.

A protective shield formed in the water, protecting 0001 on the ground. Wenren Lei continued to activate her powers, and water chains and water cannons rose from the surface, each doing its part to restrain Kong Weian.

Kong Weian was bound by the water chain and was about to be blasted to pieces by the repeated shells.

Wenren Lei watched with his arms crossed, gradually becoming speechless: "His head was blown up like that and he's still alive?"

Kong Weian was furious. He struggled and roared to the sky, causing the entire mountain to shake.

A sharp sonic boom assaulted her, causing Wenren Lei's head to throb with pain. She instinctively raised her hand to cover her ears: "6, I'm going to explode..."

Worst of all, he could clearly sense that Kong Weian's superpowers were still increasing rapidly.

Puppets kept emerging from the birch trunk beneath their feet, climbing up the tree where Wenren Lei was standing.
