Chapter 173: Chapter 171: Consciousness Covers the Whole Body_1

He stared at the messy, greasy hair that looked like it hadn’t been washed for a few hundred years, still covered in disgusting blood stains. The sight was stomach-churning.

His eyes harbour excitement, extreme madness, and of course, an excitement that is beyond anyone’s comprehension!

No one knows whether the unsettling feelings in his heart sped up his evolution from Level 3 to Level 4. The dawn was already breaking at the horizon, and soon, light would return to the world.

He moved one step at a time, the veins on his legs pulsating unconsciously like earthworms. No one knows what happened to Tang Ye, except for him. After he became aware of the powers bestowed by Level 4 evolution, he felt an unbearable headache.

He had become stronger. The abilities he obtained were so extraordinary that they could defy heaven’s law. At this moment, he can control every muscle, every cell in his body!

Twisting them, causing them to multiply, and reforming them into a shape he desired. His consciousness permeated his whole body, he could see every cell, not just sense them, but actually see them!

The ability to see every single cell came from those tentacles he developed during his Level 3 evolution!

As long as these tentacles were within him, he could see every portion of himself! They could also grow out and attack his enemies!

Indeed, he had become stronger, his strength had surged dramatically. He had full command over his body without having to filter reactions through his brain. However, with this came a downside, he was constantly bombarded with information from every part of his body. It was driving him close to insanity!

You can never imagine the feeling of your heart asking you every second whether it should continue to beat.

Luckily, evolution preserved his humanity. Tang Ye managed to transfer some of the sensory information back to his brain, allowing him some respite.

Otherwise, he would have gone mad from the overwhelming influx of sensory information.

The purple-red tendrils moved back and forth among the soldiers, swiftly killing every enemy in their path. Only a few lucky ones managed to escape. Tang Ye didn’t bother to chase after them.

After killing most of the soldiers, Tang Ye, with his naturally gloomy gaze, looked at Chen Chaoyang. He had to admit that he found Chaoyang particularly pleasing to the eye at this moment. He had heard what Chaoyang said earlier and naturally took it as a sign of his loyalty.

Who wouldn’t like a loyal subordinate?

Under Tang Ye’s intense gaze, Chen Chaoyang felt at a loss. His earlier joy at Tang Ye’s appearance swiftly dampened. All he could do was to give a wry smile, scratching his head, he said, "Boss, you’re finally here! Did you know I missed you? If you didn’t show up, we would have been goners."

"Hmm, well done... Hehe..."

Tang Ye rasped, his voice had become even more hoarse after the evolution. The grating sound didn’t bother him, but it made the other three shudder ungrudgingly and feel rather uncomfortable.

"What about Nannan? Is she better?"

"She hasn’t woken up yet."

Li Xiaoyan replied, despite knowing that Tang Ye wouldn’t attack them, she couldn’t help but feel scared. Just moments ago, Tang Ye had massacred the countless soldiers surrounding them in mere seconds!

The sheer power he demonstrated was enough to invoke fear. Tang Ye, by now, could be considered a small-scale humanoid disaster!

However, it also puzzled him. Were Level 3 zombies this strong? The gap between them and Level 2 zombies seemed too wide. Then, what would happen if they evolved to Level 4?

Both Chen Chaoyang and Li Xiaoyan were relatively composed, but when Yan Jie realised that the zombie standing before him was the boss he respected, he couldn’t help but tremble uncontrollably. Cold sweat dripped down his forehead, his reaction did not go unnoticed by Tang Ye.

Tang Ye looked at Yan Jie, his lips lifted to form a weird smile, his eyes gleamed dangerously. Sensing something amiss with Tang Ye, Chen Chaoyang and Li Xiaoyan instinctively stepped back.

And the audacious Chen Chaoyang went so far as to go behind Tang Ye, to avoid getting caught in the crossfire in case Tang Ye decided to kill Yan Jie.

"Scared?"

"Uh...yes!"

Hearing Tang Ye speak, Yan Jie initially found it hard to believe that this ’person’ is Tang Ye. But his voice, it was indeed the boss he knew. Tang Ye was now not wearing his red mask, his terrifying zombie face was fully exposed in front of him.

Especially when Tang Ye opened his mouth, revealing two rows of triangular teeth that emitted a chilling light. Yan Jie trembled even more, he was at a loss for words. He started to regret, why did he follow him?

He’s a zombie! It’s perfectly normal that he doesn’t have the scent of blood and flesh! He should’ve realised that there was something wrong from the start, he could only blame himself for being too foolish, for not realising that Tang Ye was a zombie!

A sentient zombie!

An utterly terrifying one at that! Zombies are extremely numerous, they’re practically everywhere! There are over six billion of them! Can you imagine that?

Less than a billion humans were left struggling for survival in this world. It was their superior intelligence that kept them afloat amidst all other species!

The sheer number of zombies had already pushed human civilization to the edge of collapse. If zombies gained intelligence, it would spell the end of humanity!

Zombies feed on living creatures, there’s a high chance that intelligent zombies might start farming humans for food, just like how humans breed pigs, ducks, and cows. This is absolutely terrifying!

"I..."

"Hehehe...do you remember the promise you made to me? You said you will be loyal to me, no matter what ’person’ I am, remember?"

"This..."

Yan Jie was at a loss for words, hesitating to reply. The idea of being loyal to a zombie was too repugnant to his moral values!

Every person has the dream of being a hero, to save the world. Although these dreams usually fade away as one grows older, they would still be buried deep within one’s heart.

Yan Jie’s forehead veins popped aggressively, he was desperately coming up with a response in his mind, only to reject them one by one. He did consider giving a firm "no" to Tang Ye’s question, but he was still human, he had a will to survive, he didn’t want to die!

Seeing that Yan Jie was not responding, Tang Ye’s eyes grew more menacing, an intense threat of violence boiled beneath his gaze. If Yan Jie dared to answer with a no, Tang Ye would torture him to death without hesitation!

Yan Jie was just a passer-by in his life, perhaps after he achieved his goals, Yan Jie would just disappear from this world. Yan Jie was just a temporary tool he could use. The only reason he gave Yan Jie a chance to respond was because Yan Jie risked his life to save him and told him about Yan Zhaofeng’s outrageous tactics!

If it wasn’t for him, he might not even know who kidnapped Nannan when she gets snatched!

Yan Jie clenched his fists. Seeing the situation, Chen Chaoyang, who was behind Tang Ye, couldn’t bear to watch Yan Jie get brutally killed by Tang Ye, so he started blinking frantically at Yan Jie.
