Chapter 230: Chapter 098: Has Frostmourne Really Evolved? (Thanks to the Silver That Not Even Resurrection Coins Could Save)_5

Leaving the house.

When Lin Fan delivered the things he had bought to Feifei and the others, he couldn’t help but feel uplifted seeing the children’s happy faces. All his efforts felt worthwhile.

Downstairs.

"Xiaoxiao, get me some bread," Lin Fan said.

Su Xiaoxiao replied, "Okay, Lin Brother."

Paying.

Carrying the bread, he walked toward the vegetable patch. Upon arrival, a group of orphanage children were chasing after a dog and playing with Cui Hua while Gu Hang and Wang Kai were busy reinforcing the wall.

The wall was fortified stoutly, raised higher, and fitted with steel spikes resembling porcupine quills, embedded atop the wall. If any zombie tried to clamber over, they would be impaled by these spikes.

Lin Fan gave the bread to the group of kids, telling them to share it. Amidst their chorus of thanks, his smile grew even brighter—this was the scene he most hoped to see.

The children were able to live carefree lives.

That was his motivation to keep striving.

"Little Fan, how come you’re back so late today?" Gu Hang put down his welding work and asked curiously. Normally, Little Fan would return quickly from his errands.

Lin Fan briefly recounted the incidents he had encountered earlier to Gu Hang.

Listening, Gu Hang’s face turned grave. The emergence of a new type of zombie clearly shocked and puzzled him. According to Lin Fan’s description, wasn’t this zombie like a broodmother of the insect race?

The zombies he knew to date included:

Powerful Zombies!

Split-mouth speed Zombies!

Screaming Zombies!

Self-destructive impact Zombies!

Now there appeared a new type similar to the Screaming Zombie, yet more formidable—the Spiritual Zombie, and still in its juvenile form. With this revelation, he felt the situation had changed.

"Little Fan, have you thought about how the evolution of zombies occurs?" Gu Hang had always been puzzled about what drives zombies to live and what conditions allow them to evolve into special types.

"Crystals," Lin Fan said.

"Crystals?"

"Yes, exactly, crystals. Zombies’ crystals are the source of their energy. Over time, the energy within the crystals evolves into various types of zombies according to the special type of the zombie, just like humans—some are smart, some not so much. It’s the same with zombies; the formidable ones evolve into very formidable zombies."

"Who told you this?" Gu Hang was very confused, flabbergasted by Lin Fan’s theory.

Lin Fan replied, "I thought of what some netizens said. I used to browse end-of-the-world forums and read related theories; they seem quite plausible."

Gu Hang: ...

"As long as I, Lin Brother, am here, these zombies aren’t scary. No matter how many come, they will have to face my sword," Wang Kai declared with utmost reverence for Lin Fan. He wasn’t afraid of zombies at all now.

Lin Fan said, "Yes, you are right. Zombies indeed aren’t scary, but their sheer numbers are simply too many. I think the number in Huang City alone is massive. To kill all the zombies in Huang City, I really don’t know how long it would take. It might be a very long time."

Wang Kai said admiringly, "Lin Brother, don’t doubt yourself. I will always believe in you. As long as we try hard, I’m sure we can eliminate all the zombies in Huang City with your Frost Mourne."

Gu Hang looked at Wang Kai and realized he had discovered who was Lin Fan’s number one fan in Sunshine District—definitely Wang Kai. His entire demeanor had changed. Before, he wasn’t like this when he heard about zombies or faced them.

Who could have imagined he would become so emboldened?

His display of fearless brashness was truly domineering, truly awesome.

Clang!

Lin Fan drew Frost Mourne from behind him, and under the shine of sunlight, it gleamed with a silvery-white light so bright that Gu Hang and Wang Kai squinted their eyes.

"So cool," Wang Kai said, speaking the truth—it was indeed very cool.

Gu Hang asked, "What material is this made of? Obviously, it’s just a Simulated Divine Artifact, so why does it make me feel both creeping dread and fear?"

Lin Fan smiled and said, "It’s made of ordinary materials, quite expensive. Sister Li gave it to me as a weapon; I rely on it whenever I kill zombies."

His palm caressed the blade, the cool sensation feeling quite pleasant.

Gu Hang stared at Frost Mourne, its inscribed runes shining as if containing a certain power. Even though he had never played World of Warcraft, he recognized the sword.

Frost Mourne, right.

Its notoriety was high.

It felt eerily evil to others, yet the Frost Mourne in Lin Fan’s hands gave him an indescribable feeling—like a divine, Sword of Justice?

"Lin Brother, can I hold it?" Wang Kai was attracted to it, it really was too cool. He had never noticed it before and felt helpless about his lack of discernment. Such an awesome Simulated Divine Artifact had never caught his attention before.

Ah, truly blind.

Lin Fan said with a smile, "Sure, no problem. Have a look at it."

Wang Kai rushed over to Lin Fan, rubbing his hands eagerly, his eyes shining, endlessly praising how stylish it was, and stretched out his hand toward the hilt.

Lin Fan let go. Such a good thing, he was willing to share with a friend, to let the friend also feel it.

But just then.

A startled cry.

Wang Kai’s waist suddenly bent downward as if the Frost Mourne in his hand weighed a thousand pounds. Lin Fan quickly grabbed Frost Mourne and looked at Wang Kai with bewilderment.
