My Doomsday Simulator Game.

Chapter 23 23. The Knight in the Dark
"It will take some time to prepare for the relocation of the survivors at the subway station, and it will probably be completed before today."

"If nothing unexpected happens, we will set off early tomorrow morning."

"I have something else to do. You two can chat slowly."

Li Jian left the office, leaving Su Hong and the other person alone.

Wang Chengzhi looked around and asked in a low voice: "Brother Su Hong, can this guy be trusted?"

Su Hong sat down on the sofa. "Li Jian concealed a lot of things and didn't mention a word about the disagreement or the forces behind him."

"But we weren't that familiar with him."

Su Hong doesn't quite agree with Li Jian's new human theory from the bottom of his heart.

The new order does not mean an advanced force. The undead and disasters living in harmony sounds like a joke.

Letting a mad god dominate the world and letting madness engulf reason and the earth is not order at all, but chaos.

If Li Jian really firmly supports the new human theory, then as an immortal, he should have abandoned those survivors who were a burden long ago, unless he had other purposes.

There was another thing that concerned Su Hong - the flying feather family emblem on Li Jian's breastplate. He had seen it on the noble clothing of the cursed corpse ghost.

Although his relationship with the Protz family is unclear, it is definitely a good idea to be vigilant.

"First, organize the residents of the Garden Community to gather here. Chengzhi, this task is left to you."

Su Hong handed the key to his house to Wang Chengzhi, "This is the key to my front door. While relocating the residents, please move the supplies I stored in the storage room over here."

"These supplies should be enough for us to reach the disaster shelter."

"As an undead, I believe you can complete the task easily."

"I... am I also an immortal?"

"of course."

Wang Chengzhi seemed a little nervous at the thought of acting alone, but he still agreed.

Deep in the circular tunnel, Su Hong watched Wang Chengzhi leave. Seeing that there was no one around, he took out the corrosive vesicle.

"I found a corrosive vesicle from a disaster item. Do you want to refine it?"

"Yes."

"Refining succeeded, obtaining the Disaster Talent (temporary): Heart of Corrosion."

“Heart of Corrosion (Normal+): You have understood the essence of corrosion. When you hold a weapon, it can infect the weapon and add the effect of corrosion poisoning.”

Su Hong pulled out his machete and activated the Heart of Corrosion. A strange green light appeared on the blade, which looked extremely deadly.

"Can the hands of a dead apostle be defined as weapons?"

His heart moved, and the arms of the dead apostle behind him grew. One could vaguely see the fists and fingertips emitting the light of corrosive venom.

【Su Hong】

[Disaster Level: Present World]

[Disaster Level: Level 8]

[Disaster Potential: 234/5]

[Disaster Talent (4/4): Admirer's Love (Normal), Dead Apostle's Cursed Hand (Excellent), Mystical Eye (Excellent), Corrupted Heart (Temporary)]

[Disaster Skill: None]

[Disaster Equipment: Damaged Jailer Training Armor (Normal+), the heavy training armor equipped by the jailers in the prison city, but it is a bit too thick and seems to be used more to prevent being beaten. ]

Su Hong had a feeling that tomorrow's retreat would not be smooth.

But for him, the more chaotic the better. It would be best if a few more disaster monsters came and killed him, so that he would be close to disaster level 10.

At night, Wang Chengzhi successfully led the survivors of the community to the Fenguang subway station and brought all the supplies for the community.

These supplies solved the problem of food shortage for the survivors. At least they didn't have to worry about food shortage on their way to the disaster shelter.

For this, Li Jian expressed his gratitude to Su Hong many times.

In the office of the Fenguang subway station, Su Hong was still exploring the talents of the automatically upgraded Lover, and Wang Chengzhi brought Xu Yanrui to him.

Xu Yanrui looked a little embarrassed. She had witnessed Su Hong fighting with a zombie in the community before and mistakenly thought that Su Hong was also a monster, so she hid.

I didn't expect it was all a misunderstanding.

Wang Chengzhi asked, "Brother Su Hong, Xu Yanrui also has an arm behind her back. Is she also an undead?" Su Hong's eyes fell on the corpse ghost arm behind Xu Yanrui. He was surprised to find that this corpse ghost arm, both in appearance and the aura of disaster, had reached the strength of disaster level 4.

What happened after Xu Yanrui went into hiding?
The woman saw the confusion in Su Hong's eyes, and she quickly explained: "I hid in the backyard of Unit 4 for a day. I don't know how, the black forest outside began to shake, and a fruit fell in, chasing me..."

Su Hong was speechless when he heard this. What kind of weird ways of becoming stronger were these?

Having said that, Xu Yanrui's luck is extremely good. Even without him, she might be able to survive the end of the world with just luck.

He took note of the news and planned to go and see the true appearance of the fruit when he had the chance.

Of course... this is not intercepting, it is just reasonable utilization of resources. Anyway, if we give it to him, he can still bring the fruit into reality.

"Tomorrow morning, we will set out on the road to leave Sheng City. You should get a good rest tonight."

"it is good."

……

The third day of the apocalypse, 6:23 in the morning.

Su Hong and Li Jian led the way in front, and the two hundred survivors followed behind in a mighty manner.

At the back of the team, Xu Yanrui and three other undead were on guard against any possible dangers that might arise around them at any time.

One of the undead was born in a subway station. His calamity ability was very interesting, called Soul Whip.

He is able to fine-tune his own soul, materialize its power, and launch both physical and spiritual attacks on his enemies.

Su Hong realized that if the mysterious black shadow was related to Wang Chengzhi's soul, perhaps the ability of soul whipping could allow Wang Chengzhi to borrow some of the power of the mysterious black shadow.

If this is really feasible, Wang Chengzhi's potential will be released and he can be promoted from a bomb tool to a helper.

The subway tunnel was extremely quiet, with no sign of any disaster monsters. Su Hong took the opportunity to continue asking Li Jian about matters related to the disaster.

"How do you distinguish between undead of different strengths?"

Li Jian placed his right hand on the long sword at his waist and surveyed the surroundings. He said casually, "Two latitudes, one is the level of immortality, and the other is the rank of immortality."

"Among them, the classification of undead levels is the most clear, from Undead Level One to Undead Level Three, dividing the undead into three levels."

"Your power is already very close to the first level of the Undead, and you can deal with most of the disaster monsters."

After Su Hong inquired in detail, he had a clear idea in his mind that the strength of entering the first level of immortality was roughly equivalent to the 10th level of disaster.

Li Jian is at this level, but after he was ambushed by the minions of the Divergent Group at the subway station and lost an arm, he can no longer exert the power of the first level of the Undead Stage.

Li Jian continued, "As for the concept of the immortal rank, it is still shrouded in mystery. It seems that the older and more powerful the existence, the higher the immortal rank."

"If we are the people of the present world, then the rank above the present world is 'ancient'. The more corrupt and old it is, the more terrifying it is."

"The advancement of the immortal rank is quite demanding and requires sufficient luck and strength."

"What kind of existence is the disagreement?" Su Hong brought up the disagreement again.

Li Jian took a deep breath and looked at Su Hong. "I'm sorry, I can't tell you more about the Divergent Knights. It won't do you any good to know too much."

"You just need to know that the minions of divergence are extremely terrifying. The injuries on my body are also their masterpiece."

"They are everywhere. Be wary of all strangers." Li Jian warned and didn't want to mention it again.

The two fell into silence. The team walked and stopped, passing by several subway stations, but none of them were empty. Only a mess was left, as if all the survivors had evacuated in a hurry.

In the afternoon, they arrived at the fifth station, which was still quiet and deserted, which seemed extremely strange.

Su Hong stared at the quiet subway platform in the distance, and an ominous premonition arose in his heart. He always felt that there was an unknown crisis hidden ahead.

Li Jian's face was calm, and it was obvious that he had noticed something was wrong, so he drew out the long sword from his waist.

"Everyone wait here, we'll be back soon."

The two looked at each other, and then, one on the left and one on the right, approached the subway station at the same time in the darkness.

"Wait..." Su Hong's eyes were filled with blood, and he seemed to see a thick and substantial aura of disaster under the platform.

Monsters hiding in the darkness?

He was shocked and was about to remind her.

Suddenly the neighing of a horse pierced the silence, and a faint light ignited, burning fiercely, illuminating the figure in the darkness.

A knight with red and yellow flames burning all over his body was looking straight at them. The corpse horse under his crotch was restless, and its iron hooves hit the track, and a pool of flames spread out.
