Rebirth in the end of the world, hold the ex's thigh tightly

"Finally, how did you control him?"

Yang Kai inserted the dagger into the bone gap of Qi Laoer's right wrist and listened to his screams with satisfaction.

"..."

Qi Lao Er knew that continuing to conceal the truth would only lead to more suffering, so he simply gave up:

"I also quickly awakened my superpowers after the chaos. We found him when we occupied the infirmary. He was still receiving potions at the time. That's when I realized he was the mysterious man next door."

"Because of the drugs, he was weak and his mind wasn't very clear. I wanted to kill him, but I found out that he could make the infected and zombies invisible to us, and I could block the energy within a certain range without being affected by him. That's it."

"Twenty seconds left."

Yang Kai pulled out a dagger and stabbed his other hand.

"what!"

Qi Lao Er's breath weakened, and he finished his words:

"We used drugs to control him, weakened his mental will, and used some people as threats... to force him to create an illusion that was beneficial to us, and try to recruit people in. We only kept women and children, and let them contact strangers who came in..."

"It's just a cycle, luring people in and killing them."

Zhao Lei gritted his teeth and added, "That's what I said. Nothing in the world is more vicious than the human heart. People of the same kind are often the most terrifying."

Qi Lao Er no longer denied:

"Yes, but half a month ago, after his superpowers advanced, the drugs were no longer effective for him. He began to hunt our superpowers, not ordinary people, and would not leave the basement... So, I escaped with some people and waited for rescue."

"..."

Yang Kai felt relieved. After the advancement, he was completely immune to ordinary human drugs. He gained his freedom and officially became the King of Corpses. He still protected humans, which meant they could communicate well.

This is the hope that there is no need for a life-and-death struggle.

If Gao Xuyang, after his advancement, is determined to destroy and massacre humanity, then... no matter how selfish he is, he cannot risk protecting him. He can only kill Qi Laoer and then they will die together.

Seeing Yang Kai didn't say anything, Cheng Jing asked:

"How many superpowered zombies are there? Where are they gathered?"

Qi Lao Er answered truthfully:

"There are about two hundred zombies with special abilities... together with Gao Xuyang and those ordinary survivors, in the basement. Although I don't want to admit it, he seems to have deliberately asked us to seek help from outside. You can do whatever you want to me... Please give my wife and children a way out.

Everyone couldn't help but take a breath when they heard this. More than two hundred zombies with special abilities were equivalent to more than two hundred people with special abilities, which was several times the number of people with special abilities in their team.

A zombie king leads more than two hundred zombies with special powers, plus 30 hostages... Under normal circumstances, if an ordinary team encounters this situation, it would be a real hell of difficulty!

"Ahhh-"

Qi Lao Er was caught off guard and screamed again. Yang Kai took back the dagger and used his supernatural power to break the bones of his limbs:

"The matter is clear now, let's slowly settle the score! What happens to your family depends on your performance!"

After saying that, he kicked the man unconscious, then asked Chu Yi for a sack to cover most of the man's body and said:

"Please do me a favor and don't let him die."

Chu Yi nodded:

"Don't worry, you won't die."

After saying that, he threw Qi Laoer into the small dark room in the space.

After temporarily dealing with Qi Lao Er, Yang Kai quickly adjusted his state and expressed his thoughts:

"Everyone, if Gao Xuyang didn't kill those ordinary survivors, please let me keep him. If he killed those survivors, let me kill him myself, and then what I will do..."

"Don't even think about it. I won't let you commit suicide with him."

Knowing what he was thinking, Cheng Jing interrupted him, and his teammates nodded to show that they would not let him do anything wrong.

Yang Kai frowned helplessly and was about to continue speaking when Cheng Jing said righteously:

"Gao Xuyang was able to control humans and zombies at the same time so that they could not see each other. His original intention was to protect humans. It was Qi Laoer and his gang who controlled and used his abilities to do evil. He did nothing wrong. Even as a zombie, he did a good job."

Chu Yi echoed:

"That's right. According to what Qi Lao Er said, after he advanced and regained his freedom, he didn't harm ordinary people. He was just avenging himself. Besides, even if those ordinary people are dead, we still have to bring Gao Xuyang back."

"Let the professor with evolved brain see him and learn about the accident that happened in the experimental base. I suspect that the professor and his friends, like Qi Lao Er, have forgotten what happened to Gao Xuyang in Guanshan Prison because of some illusions."

Tang Ji touched his chin and nodded:

"I agree with Brother Chu's approach and inference."

Others also expressed their determination to bring Gao Xuyang back no matter what.

Not to mention Yang Kai’s beloved Bai Yueguang, even if he didn’t know her, he would choose to control her and capture her alive unless she resisted.

The zombie king can keep his body from rotting because he has the ability to heal himself and has antibodies to the zombie virus. His research value is obvious.

"..."

Yang Kai was stunned for a moment, then laughed:

"That's right...thank you all then."

This is a legitimate and sufficient reason. Although he will inevitably have to enter the laboratory to cooperate with the research, the South City Base will not use such cruel research methods. It is acceptable, and he can also see his beloved who can be considered "alive".

After everyone reached a consensus, Jiang Nian spoke:

"Oh, and don't you want to know if my purification can turn the corpse king back into a human?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone's eyes lit up. No one didn't want to know, they wanted to know very much.

Theoretically, as long as one can survive the purification flushing, retain normal consciousness, and the body has not decayed... then it is possible.

"..."

The hope in Yang Kai's eyes seemed to burn, his eyes slightly reddened, and he looked at Jiang Nian and said word by word:

"Jiang Nian, if my teacher Gao can recover, we will get married, and you will sit in the high seat and eat at the main table."

'Teacher Gao' is what he called her when he first met her at school, and he has never changed it.

"Okay, you are worthy of being Brother Kai. Let's make a deal."

Jiang Nian agreed, and they made promises to each other, okay!

After all this commotion, the atmosphere became relaxed.

"..."

After the whole team agreed to leave Gao Xuyang behind and take him back to the base, they began planning to enter the basement.

Because the space in the basement is limited, and except for the 30 ordinary people, all other people are zombies with special abilities. If Cheng Jing continues to use his special abilities, he will most likely advance.

Considering the worst-case scenario, it would be difficult to control the situation with too many people, which could easily lead to accidental injuries and unnecessary sacrifices.

Therefore, the team decided to let all the troops brought by Chu Yi stay there and wait outside the gate, and only the twelve of them would go down.

Tang Ji's shield relied on Jiang Nian's purification, which not only broke the illusion but also made the covered zombies unable to use their powers. The rest was left to others.

Even if the shielding doesn't work on Gao Xuyang, Jiang Nian's purification can make his illusion invalid, so it's not a big problem...
