The end of the world has arrived,
and all order will collapse!
Wang Luo rode his Harley towards "Dao Jian Ge" (Sword Pavilion).
As far as the eye could see, on the streets,
many people let out low growls from their throats, then their bodies convulsed, and their limbs began to twist involuntarily.
Wang Luo knew,
that strange energy had already invaded their bodies, and zombies were about to appear!
Many normally moving vehicles crashed into each other.
A concrete truck suddenly swerved sharply, its massive body instantly toppled to the ground, crushing several small cars next to it.
A small car directly crashed into a building by the roadside, causing an explosion!
Screams of terror,
screams,
growls,
the sound of crashing vehicles,
the sound of explosions...intertwined!
Order had completely collapsed.
Wang Luo ignored them, riding his Harley straight towards "Dao Jian Ge." He directly rammed any zombies he encountered.
When the traffic on the street was blocked, he drove onto the sidewalk.
The convenience of a motorcycle became apparent at this moment.
Zombies at the beginning of the apocalypse would not be too strong. In fact, an ordinary young and strong person, as long as they overcame their fear and had a decent weapon, could kill a zombie alone.
But as time went on,
once zombies began to evolve to Black Iron rank, ordinary people would be in grave danger.
Arriving at Dao Jian Ge,
Wang Luo parked his motorcycle on the roadside and hurried inside.
Dao Jian Ge specialized in selling cold weapons, and the foot traffic was not usually large. Now, there were only a few scattered zombies inside, still wearing stylish work uniforms.
Sensing someone entering,
three zombies twisted their bodies and lunged at him.
"Finally, it feels like the apocalypse!"
Wang Luo smiled.
He had experienced countless small-scale encounters like this, so he wasn't flustered at all. He picked up a long sword without a scabbard from a nearby shelf and directly swung it at the zombie that lunged first.
The long sword slashed down diagonally,
*Swish!*
The head of the charging zombie was instantly cleaved in half.
With a *thump*, the half-headed zombie fell to the ground.
The head was a zombie's only weakness.
"This long sword is quite sharp!"
Wang Luo looked at the sword, on which were engraved the characters "Yuan Hong."
However, although the long sword was sharp, it wasn't as comfortable to use as a Tang saber. After all, he had used one for several years in his past life and was accustomed to it. Therefore, his target was still the Tang saber "Yuan"!
At this moment, the other two zombies also stretched out their arms and lunged at him with their gaping mouths.
Wang Luo darted to the side of one of the zombies.
He swept the long sword horizontally, directly slashing across its neck, and a round head fell to the ground.
Ordinary zombies were not fast, so Wang Luo quickly circled behind the third zombie. "Yuan Hong" slashed down from above, splitting its head in two.
Wang Luo took a deep breath. He hadn't awakened in this life yet, and his physical fitness was a bit poor.
"All the awakenings today are SSS-rank, tomorrow will be SS-rank, and only the day after tomorrow will it be S-rank!"
This meant that his wind-element ability would only awaken the day after tomorrow.
However, thinking about the God-rank Azure Dragon ability he would receive in a day, Wang Luo couldn't help but feel a sense of anticipation.
He strode quickly to where the Tang saber "Yuan" was kept.
"Yuan" was very valuable,
worth hundreds of thousands, and was kept in a glass case. Wang Luo, holding "Yuan Hong," struck the glass with his sword, but it bounced back.
"What the heck? This is so strong? It must be made in China, right?"
Helpless, he had to flip inside the glass case to retrieve "Yuan."
This saber was exquisite. Its black crocodile skin scabbard was inlaid with seven gems of different colors, giving it a very imposing appearance!
With a suitable weapon in hand, Wang Luo felt much more at ease!
"Hey, what are you doing? That's my stuff!"
At this moment, a plump, bald man with a pale face, trembling, crawled out from under the cash register. He glanced at the three zombies lying on the ground, then turned and yelled at Wang Luo.
Wang Luo glanced at him: "It was yours before, but from now on, it's mine!"
After saying that, he walked out without looking back.
"That's my shop's treasure! Give it back to me!"
The fat bald man said sternly, picking up a spear from the shelf and stabbing it at Wang Luo's back.
That "Yuan" was worth hundreds of thousands!
However, a Wang Luo who had survived in the apocalypse for seven years would not be unprepared for people around him!
The moment the spear was thrust at him, Wang Luo suddenly turned, shifted his steps to the right, and decisively drew "Yuan." A black light swept out, and a red gash appeared on the fat bald man's neck!
"Taking your stuff for free is already showing you respect. Why are you sneak attacking me from behind?"
The apocalypse is an era of chaos,
an era where the strong rule and the weak are lowly.
"Hmm? There's an energy source crystal here?"
He hadn't noticed it before, but now he saw that among the three zombies he had killed, there was a pure white rhombus-shaped crystal in one of their heads.
This was an energy source crystal from within a zombie.
Awakened individuals could absorb it to increase their level!
"I just don't know how many energy source crystals a God-rank awakened person needs to absorb to level up from ordinary to Black Iron rank!"
In his previous life, the highest-ranked SSS-rank awakened individuals needed 90 source crystals of the same rank for each level-up, while the lowest-ranked F-rank awakened individuals only needed 10.
Therefore, below the same rank,
the strength of SSS-rank awakened individuals and F-rank awakened individuals was vastly different!
Unfortunately, not every zombie had such energy source crystals. The probability of their existence was only about 10%.
This didn't mean that every ten zombies would yield one energy source crystal, but rather a probabilistic event.
Sometimes, you might kill dozens without getting one, and sometimes, if luck strikes, you might get them consecutively.
Putting away the energy source crystal and wiping his blood-stained hands on a zombie, Wang Luo quickly left the place.
Only after he left Dao Jian Ge did the fat bald man's body fall to the ground.
"Go home, lay low!"
After killing the fat bald man, Wang Luo quickly walked onto the street. The street was now completely chaotic. In just over ten minutes, zombies were everywhere!
The strange energy during the previous earthquake was terrifying. Once infected, one would turn into a zombie within minutes!
They roared and frantically lunged at the normal humans around them!
Screams of agony were incessant!
Wang Luo had no intention of concerning himself with the life and death of others. Now, he just wanted to lie low at home and wait for the day to pass so he could get his reward!
Surviving for one day,
was a piece of cake for him!
As the motorcycle roared to life,
nearby zombies all turned their heads towards him!
Then, countless zombies followed the motorcycle, a massive horde. If someone with trypophobia saw this scene, they would likely be scared to death.
Returning to Xingfu Li residential area,
he parked his Harley downstairs and hurried upstairs.
Compared to the streets, there were far fewer zombies in the stairwell. At this time, most people were out at work. Only a small number of elderly, weak, women, and children were left at home!
The sounds of zombies could be heard from many rooms.
Wang Luo even saw an old zombie in a wheelchair waving its arms at him!
As if wanting to tear him in half!
"Even in this state, Old Cheng isn't at peace!"
Wang Luo walked up and tapped the old zombie's head with his scabbard.
Then, along with the wheelchair, he threw it from the sixth-floor balcony.
Watching the old zombie's resentful eyes as it fell, Wang Luo nodded with satisfaction.
"Help! Help!"
Passing by the adjacent room, he heard calls for help.
"Is this Cao Mo Ren here again?"
Wang Luo sneered.
How dare he show his face here again?
Peeking through a gap in the window, Wang Luo saw a naked man in his twenties standing on a table, holding a cleaver in his right hand and a rolling pin in his left, hitting a female zombie in front of him!
After just one glance,
Wang Luo confirmed that it was indeed Cao Er Xiao!
Damn it!
This is it?
You're lowering the overall standard of male compatriots!
So...
He directly found a piece of wire nearby and tightly wrapped it around the doorknob and an iron nail on the doorframe.
"Excellent, now they can be a pair of destined lovers!"
Wang Luo nodded with satisfaction.
This was truly a great deed, allowing lovers to finally be together!
Then, he calmly returned to his room, ignoring the cries for help from next door.
