Late at night, thick ink-like darkness tightly enveloped the entire building.

Several overhead lights emitted a pale halo, dragging out strange shadows in the long corridor.

After arriving on the fifth floor, Professor Zheng stepped unconsciously, Slow Down.

Every time the leather shoes hit the ground, it was like stepping on a tight heartstrings.

On both sides of the corridor, cold iron fences glowed with cold light, surrounding each ward like Prison Cage.

It seems to be imprisoning something sleeping.

Suddenly, the silent atmosphere was abruptly broken.

A sharp and piercing scream came from a certain ward, echoing in the empty corridor.

This scream seemed to alarm the patients in other rooms, and more weird sounds followed, one after another.

Some of them roared like hungry beasts, some seemed to be being tortured and begged desperately, and some murmured for unknown reasons.

All kinds of sounds intertwined, turning the entire floor into a hell on earth.

Professor Zheng's face was indifferent, and his figure was swaying under the light.

His eyes scanned to both sides vigilantly, and through the gap in the iron fence, he could catch a glimpse of a blurry figure struggling on the hospital bed, as if he would break through Prison Cage at any time.

Although we have been working at Rehabilitation Center for more than a month, there are still many soldiers with guns and live ammunition stationed around.

But every time he comes here, he still feels inexplicably frightened.

"Professor Zheng."

The soldiers guarding a ward saw a doctor coming and spoke.

Professor Zheng stopped here, tightened the satchel on his back, nodded and said:

"I'm here to check the patient's body and draw blood for testing."

This is normal medical care work.

The soldier didn't ask any further questions. He immediately took out the key and opened the door of the ward that was surrounded by iron bars.

Crunch--

The thick Iron Door was pushed open, and then closed with a "clang".

Knock, knock.

With the sound of leather shoes hitting the ground, Professor Zheng walked into the room alone and took a look inside.

His eyes immediately focused on the patient who was confined to the metal bed and making a faint gasping sound.

This is an older male patient, who is very skinny and has his limbs, neck and waist tied up by Tight Binding Belt.

He looked weak and terminally ill, but his slowly opened eyes were filled with bloodshot eyes and a chill that permeated his body.

For a moment, some kind of light seemed to flash in the dark room.

The so-called "Empty Room Sparks" probably refers to this moment of sharpness.

As if real eyes were focused on Professor Zheng, the hairs all over his body stood up instantly, and he couldn't help but take half a step back.

It was like... being stared at by a hungry man-eating beast.

Professor Zheng leaned against the wall and quickly turned on the light switch.

Fluorescent Lamp The bright light filled the entire room, making him feel a little relieved.

"You came a little late today..."

The patient was lying on the bed and greeted him with a low and hoarse voice.

"There was a little accident."

Professor Zheng Take a deep breath and try to keep your tone calm.

"Where's the stuff?"

The patient then asked.

Professor Zheng did not answer, but stared at the other party and asked:

"You promised me two weeks ago that as long as I bring you a blood sample, you will resurrect my wife. Why haven't you done it yet?"

The patient just glanced at him lightly and said:

"I see in your eyes the extremely suppressed anxiety and psychological burden of human beings."

Professor Zheng heard this, but his tone couldn't help but become more excited:

"Today is the last time. Even if you want it again, it will never be possible because soon I will not be able to protect myself!"

As he spoke, an abnormal blush appeared on that gentle and fair face, and his expression seemed a bit hysterical.

There was an unpredictable smile on the corner of the patient's mouth, and he spoke comfortingly:

"Don't worry, young man, I always mean what I say."

"Not only is it your wife, I can even give you a longer life."

"Since the first time I saw you, I knew that you were very Talent. You should not waste your life as an ordinary person, but should join our cause of creating a great ethnic group..."

His speaking voice was low and hoarse, as if he had some kind of magic power.

Soon, the emotional Professor Zheng calmed down again.

"I hope you can keep your promise."

After taking a few deep breaths, Professor Zheng immediately made a decision and took out a test kit from his bag.

After opening it, I saw five Blood Collection Tube and one Syringe inside.

Under the light, the Blood Collection Tube is slightly flashing with the dark Red Light Blood Plasma.

The patient's eyes suddenly shone, and he couldn't help but groan from his throat.

"Fresh, just Awakening blood, this is the best nourishing holy product..."

As the hospital bed made a heartbreaking creaking sound, he struggled to raise his head slightly and sniffed his nose impatiently.

"It's so fragrant that it's so addictive that I really want to swallow it in one gulp!"

Seeing the crazy look on his face, Professor Zheng couldn't help but hesitate and stopped picking up the needle.

The patient just sighed for a moment, then calmed down and said in a deep voice:

"Stick to the old rules and get the injection."

Following the instructions, Professor Zheng extracted blood from Blood Collection Tube one by one and injected it into the veins of his skinny arm one by one.

"It's a pity that the amount of blood is too small, so I can't taste it myself."

Feeling the constant gurgling of Blood Plasma into himself, the patient's dark yellow face seemed to gradually regain his vitality, and he murmured in his mouth.

"However, there will be Hunting opportunities in the future."

"As for now..."

When he said this, he suddenly clenched his hands into fists, and his skinny arms seemed to have been injected with great strength, and he immediately stretched upwards.

Click!

It was made of multiple layers of Cowhide, and the extremely tough Tight Binding Belt was torn apart instantly.

"Just let us..."

Then, he looked intently at his imprisoned waist and legs, and Exert Force again.

Click! Click! Click!

As the crisp sound of Cowhide breaking continued to sound, several other Tight Binding Belt were all torn off equally easily.

"Let's leave this place together Prison Cage!"

As soon as he finished the sentence, he suddenly straightened up from the hospital bed and regained his freedom.

"You..."

Seeing this scene, Professor Zheng couldn't help being shocked and took several steps back in fright.

The patient's appearance continued to undergo astonishing changes.

His original figure was so skinny that it seemed as if every trace of flesh and blood had been drained away by time and hunger. His ribs were clearly defined and his joints were rugged and protruding.

At this moment, it is like a skeleton made by Refined Steel, with every inch showing frightening tenacity and a cold and hard sheen.

His somewhat stooped back gradually stood up, as if a powerful force was surging, gradually straightening and supporting his body.

When his hands, feet, and neck moved slightly, a crisp "click" sound erupted, as if a mechanical device that had been in disrepair needed to be loaded with lubricant.

"It's not easy. Of the three Demon Seed that were temporarily planted, the one with the least hope can grow up smoothly."

"Perhaps, this is called risking your life to survive..."

The patient stood upright, clenched his fists, murmured, and looked at his body.

Then he faced the completely blocked window and looked at his current appearance with the help of the faint light refracted by the Alloy steel plate.

When he turned around and looked back, he saw Professor Zheng's face full of fear, so he smiled slightly and explained:

"Don't be afraid. The special blood you brought today just gave this body enough Innate Vital Energy to initially restore my original strength."

Professor Zheng Cold sweat oozed from his forehead and slid across his cheeks. He couldn't help but ask:

"What do you want to do next?"

The patient's mouth twisted slightly, revealing an extremely ugly smile.

Suddenly, his body flashed, appearing in front of Professor Zheng as if teleporting, and grabbed his neck.

Just when he was so frightened that he opened his mouth to scream, a stream of vomit as black as ink came out of his mouth and poured it into the other person's mouth.

Then he let go of his hand and let him fall to the ground.

Professor Zheng choked and coughed repeatedly, and asked in shock and anger:

"You... what exactly did you do to me?"

"Let you also become the glorious Undead."

The patient's eyes were stern, his thin lips parted slightly, and his voice was low and full of unquestionable majesty.

"I am currently short of manpower, and you are of high value. Those who follow me in the future will not receive such good Empowerment treatment."

Professor Zheng was startled after hearing this, and couldn't help but reach out and touch his face and chest, vaguely feeling that some kind of Danger extreme change seemed to be taking place inside his body.

"Professor Zheng, what happened?"

At this moment, two soldiers stationed outside heard the noise, opened the door and barged in.

When they saw the patient who had been tied up break free Tight Binding Belt, they immediately aimed their guns and ordered the patient to get down.

The patient raised his eyes slightly and looked at the intruder.

Suddenly, two dark red bone spurs grew out from behind the shoulder blades, and they instantly swelled in the wind, spreading like wings.

There is no mistake, every song is published and every content is read one by one!

Pfft, pfft!

The wings suddenly extended forward, like sharp Spear, instantly piercing the chests of the two intruders.

The two soldiers' eyes widened in disbelief. Before they could fire their rifles, they lost the strength to pull the triggers with their fingers.

They only felt that the vitality in their whole body was passing away rapidly, and the bone spurs piercing their hearts were like pipes for pumping blood.

Gulu, Gulu.

It continuously absorbs blood, expands rapidly, and even becomes more vivid, blooming slightly.

In just a few seconds, two living people were sucked into mummy shells.

For patients who received nutritional supplements, their skin and flesh began to plump up, their faces became rosy, and they seemed to be a little younger.

Looking at the scene that looked like the arrival of gods and demons, Professor Zheng was deeply shocked and felt an instinctive sense of surrender.

He couldn't help but feel weak at the knees, knelt on the ground, and asked piously and timidly:

"Master, what should I call you?"

His voice was trembling with fear and a little uncontrollable excitement.

"Name?"

The patient's brows were slightly furrowed, as if he was recalling an extremely distant time, and his mind was temporarily confused.

After a long while, he said quietly:

"From now on, just call me Jiang Chen."

When he said this, his deep-set eye sockets seemed to be burning with green will-o'-the-wisps, and he suddenly raised his head and roared wildly.

This roar resounded throughout the building, like the introduction of Pandora's Box.

Immediately, countless responses sounded out, coming from all directions.

There were shrill howls, angry roars, and even excited shouts.

All these sounds intertwine and converge, like an evil symphony of demons coming from the depths of hell, weaving into an airtight predatory web that covers the building.

Bang!

The Fluorescent Lamp above the head could not withstand the impact of sound waves and exploded instantly.

The crackling explosions of light tubes and the bewildered exclamations of the soldiers stationed there were also heard outside.

"Haha."

In the dark ward, the patient who called himself "Jiang Chen" smiled coldly, waved to Professor Zheng and said:

"Let's go, welcome to join the world of Flesh-Eaters!"

"Next, open all Prison Cage, and let you command the clansmen to destroy this dirty place."

"I would like to see how much power Imperial Court Government still retains in this day and age?"

Professor Zheng felt a chill in his heart when he heard this, and immediately nodded in agreement.

He knew very well that from the moment he made a deal with the devil in front of him and sold his soul, there was no turning back.

I can only bite the bullet and move forward step by step in this corridor leading to hell.

Behind is the path swallowed by darkness, and ahead is Mist many unknown fears Abyss.

Rehabilitation Center Second Floor.

The original security guard Surveillance Room has been transformed into the heavily guarded Defense Center by Military.

In front of rows of hundreds of fluorescent flashing CCTV.

Several surveillance personnel were still a little sleepy, but when they heard the roaring like a mountain roaring and a tsunami coming from outside, they couldn't help but feel shocked.

Quickly retrieve the surveillance video and quickly find out the situation.

"The voice Source should be in the critical area on the fifth floor, Ward 513 the door opened."

Immediately, it switched to the camera footage in the room.

"Two soldiers have been killed."

"Hey, why is it Professor Zheng? What happened to the patient he was talking to..."

At this moment, the lighting facilities were blown apart by sound waves one after another, and the camera image suddenly became completely black, with only the outline of the human figure displayed by infrared rays remaining.

The person in charge of Defense Center tensed up and immediately issued a series of orders:

"Sound the alarm quickly and dispatch patrol officers from other floors to help surround the fifth floor to prevent patients inside from escaping in the chaos."

"People from Special Search Team will also be notified to go to support in case of any unexpected events. The situation here must also be reported to the headquarters..."

While talking, several more Cameras were vandalized, and the situation on the scene became even more confusing.

At the same time.

Two Special Search Team members stationed at Rehabilitation Center also woke up from their sleep.

Listening to the various howls gathering in the building, I suddenly realized something.

"Not good!"

"It's Resonance Effect from Ghoul, and Ghoul Leader has appeared!"

Waves of sharp sirens kept sounding, and it seemed impossible to stop.

The corridor was dark, and the dazzling Red Light flashed frequently on the ceiling.

The originally orderly Rehabilitation Center has transformed into a chaotic and bloody battlefield.

Gunfire, shouts, screams, and roars continued to echo through the floors.

Puffs of blood spattered onto the ceiling.

Da da da--

Several soldiers wearing Night Vision Goggles held rifles and opened fire while retreating.

From time to time in the darkness, monsters rush forward fearlessly and can take away a life in the blink of an eye.

As the number of people became smaller and smaller, the sound of extremely rapid footsteps sounded. The few remaining soldiers looked panicked and contacted through Earpiece to gather in another place.

The monster made a terrifying cry and still chased after him.

None of them noticed that there was a figure lying on the ceiling, silently watching everything.

Fang Cheng was originally hiding at Emergency Stairwell.

I followed Professor Zheng to the fifth floor and found that there were basically three steps to Guard Post. Soldiers and Camera were everywhere, making it impossible to sneak around.

So we can only wait for the other party to come out again.

Unexpectedly, less than ten minutes have passed.

This guy actually made such a big noise inside.

Fang Cheng couldn't help feeling a little regretful.

If I had known earlier, I might as well have killed him.

There is no need to look for the mastermind behind the scenes.

Fang Cheng knew in his heart that he could not wait any longer, so he took advantage of the chaos and sneaked in, preparing to find Professor Zheng in the dark.

Although there are risks and consequences in doing this, it can't be controlled that much.

After the other party made such a big noise in the hospital area, Military would definitely use thunderous means to quickly suppress it.

Don't look at the monsters that were released from the ward. They now look extremely vicious and arrogant.

When the time comes, after a few rounds of Missile are washed down, everything will be wiped out.

As a carbon-based life form, no matter how strong the physical body is, it cannot compete with the weapons of mass destruction of modern armies.

During the melee, Fang Cheng sometimes dodged the gunfire, and sometimes looked quickly for searches.

Suddenly, a slightly crazy laughter came into my ears:

"Haha, bullets can't kill me. You guys are too weak!"

Hearing this voice, Fang Cheng's eyes hidden in Hood shone brightly, as if a beast hunting in the dark had locked its target.
