Chapter 1548: Savior Core

Leaping, flashing.

The black‑red inner city of Long An seemed to be staging a chase drama.

No one knows what is attracting this monster.

Despite the large forces attacking from behind, the blood corpse at this moment simply rushes swiftly toward the base core.

"Fan Bing!? How are you now!!"

"Why is that monster grabbing you!"

"We will rescue you as much as possible! But we can only do our best!"

Jolting, swaying.

Looking at the urgent inquiries in the communication, one after another, questioning myself.

Fan Bing, held sideways in the arms, did not reply to the message, merely staring blankly at the blood corpse that had seized her.

Or rather, Li Lei.

Even if flesh falls off, even if the blood corpse before her has become neither ghost nor human.

But those eyes are Li Lei's!

She can tell that the blood corpse Li Lei has become seems not to want to harm her.

It even somewhat 'timidly' grabs her, carefully holding her in its arms, its sharp claws retracting as if afraid to touch her, only using its arms to lift her up.

The back muscles strained outward like a shield, blocking the attacks from behind.

Amid the successive violent explosions and psychic bursts, it shields her from the residual damage of the attacks.

Complex, shocking, dazed.

She knows the people of Long An have no choice; they won't stop attacking just because she was taken by the monster. At most they will try to avoid her while attacking.

As long as this monster lives, no one can guarantee how many people of Long An will die.

She knows Li Lei once lost control and fled.

But she cannot understand why Li Lei would come back.

Is it because of her?

Is he back to take revenge on Lin An!?

She cannot judge the grudge between the two sides.

Feeling the vibrations as the blood corpse strains to 'block' the attacks for her, Fan Bing is bewildered and at a loss.

In this situation, she inevitably overlays the present blood corpse with the former Li Lei in her mind.

Li Lei is actually not a bad person, at least not to her.

The grudge between him and Lin An is essentially caused by greed clouding their eyes; Li Lei seems merely a pawn.

Li Lei, essentially, is just an immature youth who admires her. Her survival in the apocalypse is also thanks to him.

If Li Lei came for her...

Perhaps I can... 'persuade' him (it)!?

With her feelings extremely complicated, just as Fan Bing was about to say something.

A surge of scalding hot blood splashed onto her face in an instant.

Only to see that, before the blood corpse, a team of Awakened Ones attempting to intercept it head‑on was instantly torn to pieces.

And Li Lei, already turned into a monster, after shredding those soldiers, let out an excited low growl.

After biting off another Awakened One's head, he then brought the half‑arm that had fallen mid‑air to her face.

In the low growl, he actually seemed to be offering her food, letting her eat it.

The intense sensory stimulation and strong bloody smell instantly awakened Fan Bing.

She suddenly realized that Li Lei had actually become a complete monster!

"Li Lei! Stop!! Get out of here! Don't kill anyone else!"

"Roar!!"

Without waiting for Fan Bing's shock, he shouted loudly.

Quite different from what she had imagined.

At this moment, Li Lei merely hesitated a moment, then turned and roared angrily at her, lifted his head, and accelerated again.

"Yes! Disciple! Come quickly! That woman means nothing to you!"

"Come find me! Come find me! I know all of Lin An's secrets!"

Clinging desperately to the wall of the crystal ball, Huang Shaohua's expression was excited, as if about to burst into tears, half crying half laughing, utterly distorted.

He left a backhand in Li Lei's body, or rather, he has had it all along; otherwise he would not have considered occupying Li Lei's body in the first place.

He knows Lin An's secret!

Especially seeing Li Lei slaughter his way here, while Long An's fourth‑stage power has not yet appeared, and even cannot stop Li Lei.

A tremendous, almost crazy idea keeps sprouting in his mind.

"If I can fuse with Li Lei! Using his power, I can slaughter my way there!"

"System! Lin An must have another system! Otherwise that trash could not have become so strong!"

Like a mad, twisted maggot, Huang Shaohua, having burned more than half of himself, now bears no trace of the weakness he showed when Lin An caught him.

A thing called ambition almost burst him apart!

As a refugee who fled to the Asian region, his civilization may not be strong, but he has come into contact with some profound things!

He knows that when some civilizations face an apocalypse, higher civilizations may plant seeds! And that system is precisely the 'seed' left by those civilizations!

Lin An is so strong, his speed of growth so fast, compared to the Li Lei he chose, it's terrifyingly a hundred, a thousand times stronger! If it's not a system, what is it? If it's not a seed, what is it!?

Even...

A flash of malicious color crossed Huang Shaohua's eyes.

He had lived so long and seen so much.

With his intelligence, how could he not think... Lin An... most likely something happened!

Faction: Long An was empty; Gao Tian that brat deliberately left him here in the storeroom, not even daring to take him along.

Combining the present chaos within Faction: Long An and the clues he had silently observed earlier.

Even if trapped inside the crystal ball, he could still guess what exactly had happened behind this!

Lin An, hunted by Alien Species!

Lin An, surely something happened!

Faction: Long An, definitely desperately rescuing that trash!

So...

Screech!

The sharp claws scraping against the crystal ball.

A bloody red hand grabbed him.

After a few seconds.

In the midst of uncontrollable mad laughter, Huang Shaohua stared fixedly at the fortress core.

As if he saw, that light sphere.

Savior's core.

He had seen that thing before.
