Chapter 790: Is It a Zombie I Ran Into? No Touching!

Su Yang snatches the shovel and dashes straight toward Lu Zhiwei.

Lu Zhiwei, seeing the situation, senses danger but does not budge a step, "You want to kill me?"

"Had you had enough fun?" Su Yang raises the shovel high and says calmly, "It's time to send you to hell."

"Bang!"

The helmet, too fragile, shatters with the sound.

Su Yang does not hesitate, the second shovel swing lands in rapid succession.

The head cracks and shatters with a booming sound, like a watermelon smashed on the ground.

Blood splatters the wall, chaotic like splashed ink, yet it has a certain alternative beauty.

Two corpses lie ten meters apart; Su Yang studies them carefully for a few seconds and discovers they are exactly the same.

Whether it's skin texture or height and build, they seem copied from the same template.

Not only that, even the size and position of the wrist moles are identical.

"Then the Liu Pangzi I killed…" Su Yang narrows his eyes.

He immediately dismisses that thought.

Although there is suspicion of imitation, Su Yang can still clearly discern the real from the fake.

Thus he employs Deception to reacquire Remote Object Retrieval.

He merely hooks his finger, spreads his palm, and a sudden suction rushes out.

Far beyond the two walls, Lu Zhiwei suddenly feels an irresistible force bearing down.

"What the heck is that?"

The surrounding scenery constantly shifts, Lu Zhiwei keeps traversing Gates, and minutes later, before even catching Su Yang's silhouette, the smell of blood arrives!

"Pfft—"

"Hm?" Lu Zhiwei senses something odd behind her, her expression turning strange.

Su Yang raises an eyebrow, his expression also turning odd.

She is steadily and firmly 'controlled' by Su Yang in his hand, her body hovering in the air.

Although she arrives safely, the point of contact is…

"Su Yang, you still say you're not a pervert!" Lu Zhiwei's face shows no hint of anger, she giggles.

"..."

Su Yang slowly puts her down onto the ground, lowers his eyes to his palm, looking thoughtful.

Lu Zhiwei turns around, notices Su Yang's movement, and softly asks, "Is it nice to touch?"

"Even through the Work Uniform I couldn't really feel anything," Su Yang blurts out.

"Huh, getting a cheap deal and still acting sweet, see, I won't beat you to death!" Lu Zhiwei erupts in fury.

Su Yang quickly reaches out to stop, "It was purely accidental, I have no idea why you flew over backwards."

"Why? Do you want me to face you directly?" Lu Zhiwei, though thick‑skinned, still looks somewhat uneasy at the imagined picture.

"If facing directly…"

Su Yang shivers, immediately shifts the topic, "What happened after Liu Pangzi sent you here?"

Lu Zhiwei drops the joking expression, speaks seriously, "I was completely stunned at the time, and before I could figure out the situation I got hit by a shovel."

As she speaks, she turns, lifts her Work Uniform, exposing a large area of bruises.

"Who did it?" Su Yang asks.

"In the darkness I couldn't see clearly, I know they were after the goods, so they just dumped everything and fled," Lu Zhiwei explains.

"They didn't chase?" Su Yang asks, puzzled.

"They chased for a while at first, but then they ran into something strange and all fled," Lu Zhiwei says.

"Strange…"

Su Yang touches his chin, sensing that something is very abnormal.

Logically, if Ji Huai wanted to deal with Su Yang, the safest method would be to first wipe out his allies.

"That's correct."

"But why didn't they pursue further?"

In terms of physical condition, Lu Zhiwei is not as good as Ji Huai.

Moreover, they also have guns.

Even if they intended to use them against Su Yang, two bullets wouldn't be enough to be this cautious.

"Was Lin Jin present at the time?" Su Yang asks.

"Seems not."

"Seems?"

"In the blur I only saw the outlines of three people."

Su Yang thinks carefully; if he remembers correctly, only half an hour elapsed between them.

In that half hour, at least half the time was spent on Lu Zhiwei.

Assuming Lin Jin wasn't present, Ji Huai would need the remaining fifteen minutes to find him and discuss the kill plan.

"And…"

"Leave a gun for Liu Pangzi to handle Su Yang's execution."

Time was indeed rushed, but this doesn't achieve logical consistency.

"Unless…"

Su Yang looks at the three corpses on the ground, his heart quickens.

"You probably encountered a Zombie."

"\"The kind from movies? \" Lu Zhiwei had a question mark appear over her head."

"\"The Zombie I refer to is not a human; more precisely, it is a lifeform capable of imitation, and it is a kind of Monster. \" Su Yang indicated with his eyes."

Lu Zhiwei glanced in that direction and suddenly felt a hint of familiarity.

She fixed her gaze, her complexion changed slightly, "Isn't this me?"

She lifted the headless corpse in front of Su Yang and removed its Work Uniform.

She looked at the ivory‑white naked form inside and reached out to touch it.

"Huh? Even the feel is the same!" Lu Zhiwei seemed to have discovered a New Continent.

"Really? Let me see." Su Yang was about to reach out, but was slapped immediately.

"This is my body; you may not touch it!" Lu Zhiwei scolded.

Su Yang:?

"How could it be identical?" Lu Zhiwei suddenly wondered, wanting to check whether the other three paths were also the same.

Just as she was about to act, she suddenly sensed a pair of curious eyes watching from behind.

"Turn around; you may not look." Lu Zhiwei, like a hissing kitten, wore a fierce expression.

"It's just a piece of flesh; what's there to argue about?" Su Yang said so with his mouth, but still obeyed obediently.

Ssshh— a rustling sound rose, and Su Yang suddenly felt a slight prickling, an indescribable feeling in his heart.

"Alright, turn around." Lu Zhiwei said.

Su Yang turned around and saw that the corpse's clothes were already neatly dressed.

"How is it?"

"It's a 100% replica; even the internal structure is identical," Lu Zhiwei raised her hand and wiped the wall.

Su Yang knew exactly what she meant by "inside".

He then said, "Zombie can not only imitate timbre, but also match tone with high fidelity."

"Moreover, they also possess short‑term memory."

"Without a certain discernment ability, they can easily be toyed with at one's fingertips."

Lu Zhiwei's complexion grew a bit solemn, "So... Zombie is also a kind of Monster?"

Su Yang nodded, "Exactly, this kind of Monster appears without warning, mostly on Hard Maps."

Lu Zhiwei suddenly thought of something and said, "So the one I first encountered could very well have been a Zombie?"

Su Yang remained silent.

"Impossible, right? Could a Zombie even mimic Innate Talent?" Lu Zhiwei's face showed astonishment.

"There have been precedents," Su Yang said in a low voice.

"Then I am not..."

Lu Zhiwei instantly fell into a terrifying contemplation.

She was teleported here by a Zombie?!

"What about you?" Lu Zhiwei hurriedly asked.

"Well..." Su Yang kicked Liu Pangzi's corpse, then calmly said, "He is a real person."

"So the Teleport Cooldown lasts more than half an hour?" Lu Zhiwei asked.
