Chapter 307: Chapter 254: Normal Person?_1

The black spear was coated with Blood Asura’s Inner Strength, emitting a faint red glow. Each swing of the long spear would launch a Wind Blade mixed with the power of the Blood Asura, and these blades carried Zheng Yichen’s own strength as they flew.

After all, when the wind solidified into Wind Blades, they gained ’mass’. In this world, strength levels surpassed energy levels. The force applied to the Wind Blades by physical strength made them more powerful than if they were merely launched on their own.

Even without adding wind-type elemental attacks, the sheer force from swinging the weapon was enough to shatter a multitude of flesh monsters. In such a high-intensity world environment, a fighter at Zheng Yichen’s level was an unrivaled harvester.

The entire city’s flesh monsters converging on him posed no threat at all.

Watching a flesh-and-blood flechette rocketing towards him, Zheng Yichen raised his black spear to block it. He then emerged unscathed from the explosion, as the copious blood fog in the environment was pulled back by the wind. The flesh monsters seemed endless, continuously rushing towards their deaths at Zheng Yichen’s hands.

The abundant convergence of blood allowed him to activate Blood Combustion Transform to Origin without any depletion, and the efficiency of the Blood Combustion kept increasing. Under the extreme enhancement, he subconsciously activated Burst Mode.

Every strike brought significant destruction to the city, and the sky was unconsciously covered by a thick layer of blood-colored clouds. The moon was obscured, and the night grew darker.

New mutations arose among the flesh monsters, resulting in some formidable enemies...

"Native strongmen?" Zheng Yichen obliterated a flesh monster that was drawing near with his spear. He glanced around at the environment, the city, now a ruin, resembled a sea of blood.

There were no mountains of corpses.

In this ’sea of blood’ mixed with copious amounts of shattered flesh, more flesh monsters rose, their blood now as corrupt as that of the dead.

Zheng Yichen assessed his own condition. Blood Combustion Transform to Origin could continue to increase. The high strength level of this world raised his body’s upper limit and made him more resistant to the effects of Blood Combustion Transform to Origin.

The flesh monsters of a single city weren’t enough to push Blood Combustion Transform to Origin to its limits. He wasn’t using Blood Combustion Transform to Origin for a temporary power boost, but for Return to Origin...

Since there were no more normal flesh monsters to push the limits of Blood Combustion Transform to Origin, he had no need to maintain such a high-level of Blood Combustion Transform to Origin. Transforming all the vitality gained from the blood to Return to Origin, Zheng Yichen’s formidable state stabilized.

If there were ordinary people in this world, naturally there would be native strongmen. Aside from the native strongmen, before Zhang Ning died, he also revealed some important information to Zheng Yichen.

After realizing that he too was an anomaly, he connected to a vast database. Through this ’database’, Zhang Ning learned of Zheng Yichen’s identity. He revealed that he was a Dusk Proxy Agent, a Dusk mercenary, a Boundary Breaker, and he even knew the true reason behind the world’s current state.

This planet... carried the memories of all living beings in this world.

Including those from the Devouring Faction, Boundary Breakers, Equilibrists, and some Dusk mercenaries who died in this world.

Among the Dusk mercenaries were strong individuals, as there were in the Devouring Faction, Boundary Breakers, and Equilibrists.

As for which group the current entities belonged to, Zheng Yichen didn’t bother to find out slowly—the appearance of any enemy was enough reason to act. From the state of the planet, he seemed like an invasive virus, while the flesh monsters, and the stronger flesh monsters that now appeared, acted like the rejuvenated planet’s immune system...

Hellfire covered the black spear, and in the blink of an eye, it became a pillar of fire over ten meters long. Swinging the black spear in his hand, the pale green pillar of fire, like a giant sword, set ablaze every piece of shattered flesh and flesh monster it touched.

Since these newly-emerged flesh monsters were no longer relatively normal living creatures, he wouldn’t be patient and kill them slowly.

A fire to cleanse them all!

"Captain, Mo City has caught fire," a man in thick protective gear reported through his communicator as he peered through binoculars. The protective suit he wore was very secure, and the place where he stood was covered with a thick layer of frost—the tiny blood vessels that sprouted from the ground around him shattered from the cold.

"Caught fire? Are you kidding me? Fire would only make those flesh monsters more active!"

"But, but the flames burning now aren’t red, they’re green." The Observer swallowed nervously. He had been attracted by the commotion here, initially due to an unclear earthquake followed by a barrage of atmospheric-tearing Wind Blades bursting from Mo City.

Some outrageously powerful Wind Blades even sheared the tallest buildings of Mo City in half before rampant shock waves hit, and despite the oppressive night that veiled clarity, he still saw the vast blood fog gathering over Mo City...

Just when he thought that perhaps some new mutation had occurred in Mo City, it suddenly caught fire, the rampaging pale green flames even evaporating the oppressive blood-clouded sky above.

This even gave the Observer the impression that the entire planet might catch fire.

In Mo City, now covered by Hellfire, Zheng Yichen sat on a motorcycle, looking at a projected globe above—this device was a model created by the AI Lilith after reading the map on his phone. While not absolutely accurate, it gave a rough estimate of the planet’s layout.

Mo City was ignited by Hellfire; such burning equated roughly to a person being singed by a lighter on a planetary scale.

After burning all night, the fire began to wane. Zheng Yichen watched the scorched void that once was Mo City and exhaled softly, "Although the blood that flows from this planet disgusts me, it’s quite adequate as fuel."

The place burned by Hellfire didn’t show any trace of the city; the city had turned into a basin, and the huge eye was gone. Within the pitted basin, many patches of Hellfire were still smoldering gloomily.

Zheng Yichen stomped on the ground beneath his feet, "Could it be that the flesh and blood have hollowed out the inside of this planet?"

"To the Abyss!" Clenching his fist, Zheng Yichen mounted his bike.

Lilith, who sat on his shoulder, warned, "Someone’s coming."

"People?"

"It should be people."

A projection screen popped up, showing two approaching helicopters equipped with several heavy machine guns. The people inside wore thick protective suits—far more professional than the paper-thin protective suit Zhang Ning wore.

At a glance, one of them even resembled a radiation military engineer.

The helicopters didn’t rashly approach Zheng Yichen. Instead, a drone came forward, and a man’s voice transmitted from it, "Hello, can we talk?"

"How do you want to talk? What do you want to know?" Zheng Yichen looked at the drone and quickly heard another voice coming from it.

The questioning woman put forth two pressing questions, "Is the Mo City fire related to you? How did you avoid assimilation without any protection?"

"I started the fire, and I’m not assimilated because I’m somewhat special."

"Then... may I ask for some of your blood? I would like... Wait a minute." The woman speaking through the drone was pulled aside by a companion.

The man dressed like a radiation military engineer glanced at her, "You’re too impulsive; we still can’t be sure if he is normal!"

Setting aside whether Zheng Yichen would agree, even if he did, their side would not agree to take the blood, as it might contaminate their only ’Pure Land’.

"Sorry, our companion was a bit impulsive. We cannot be sure that you’re normal, so please disregard what was just asked," the man’s voice returned through the drone, "Are you... a Dusk mercenary or a Proxy Agent?"

"Oh? You seem to know quite a bit," Zheng Yichen eyed the drone whose camera lens rotated to capture his appearance from different angles.

Inside the helicopter, a man looking at Zheng Yichen on the screen caught the Dusk color in his eyes. After the screen filled with analysis information, he sighed deeply, "We can tentatively confirm it’s safe now. Let’s go over."

"Boss, isn’t this too rash? If Mo City was really burned by him and if..."

"No ifs! Nothing can be worse than the situation we’re currently in."

The two helicopters swiftly arrived at Zheng Yichen’s location. They didn’t land, but as they descended, someone in heavy protective gear dropped something resembling a grenade. The object erupted in a burst of cold air upon hitting the ground, freezing the surface.

Only then did the individuals from the helicopter gradually descend.

The man in the military engineer-like protective suit glanced at Zheng Yichen’s motorcycle, "Your bike is impressive, able to ignore environmental assimilation."

There was mud on Zheng Yichen’s bike tires, but the mud did not sprout tiny blood vessels that would assimilate the bike into a half-flesh entity.

"It’s hard to believe that in a world like ours, a Proxy Agent would come here. Can our world still be saved?" The man asked earnestly through his protective mask, "Is it possible?"

"Before I answer that, I want to know who you are? A local Dusk mercenary?"

"My name is Essen, a local, just someone who knows a bit more information."

Zheng Yichen took a glance at the others holding weapons; aside from their weapons, they carried the most of those freeze grenades. They managed to remain normal in such a world, and ice played a significant role.

"I’m Chang Qing, and there’s no possibility of saving your world; I’m here to destroy it all."

"... As I thought." After a prolonged silence, a somewhat disconsolate Essen said, "Can you succeed?"

"It concerns whether I can continue to live well; I will certainly try my best to do so," said Zheng Yichen, sizing up Essen and the others, "I want to know if you really consider yourselves normal?"
