Chapter 487: Chapter 141 Now You’re My Hero_3

The zombies downstairs had ferocious and hideous faces, with thick fluid trickling down from the corners of their mouths.

Anyone who saw them would be very panicked.

Not to mention a child who was only eight years old.

"Wangwang, what do you think this is?" Lin Fan said.

Zhu Wangwang’s eyes betrayed his panic as he looked towards Uncle Lin beside him. At this time, Lin Fan was wearing a mask, a Monkey King mask that he had purposefully bought in a shop when he took Wangwang out.

In his view, the way to conquer fear was to face it. If Wangwang’s hero was the Monkey King, then he would become the hero in the child’s heart.

With a hero to accompany and protect him, there would be nothing to fear.

"Monkey King."

"Right, the Monkey King. So now, watch closely, don’t blink, and you’ll see the hero in your heart."

As the words fell.

Lin Fan put down the Frostmourne that was on his back and picked up an iron stick from the ground. Amidst Zhu Wangwang’s exclamations, he dived down towards the horde of zombies.

Boom!

The ground shook, and the center where Lin Fan landed vibrated violently, causing countless zombies to be thrown into the air.

Lin Fan swung the iron stick in his hand, and dull booming sounds echoed around him. It was as if there were invisible bursts of stick energy exploding, striking a large number of zombies with a terrifying force, sweeping them into the sky.

"Wow..."

Wangwang opened his mouth wide, the panic in his eyes gradually dissipating, replaced by shock. He saw Uncle Lin, who was wearing a mask, send those terrifying zombies flying.

Lin Fan continued to swing vigorously, wave after wave, his iron stick never making contact with the zombies, yet the force it unleashed was terrifying, unstoppable.

Lin Fan wanted Wangwang to watch carefully, to be unafraid, to not shy away. The hero was always by his side, no matter how terrifying the zombies were, they would all be swept away by him.

In a brief moment.

The street that had been filled with zombies now didn’t have a single one that could stand there calmly.

Lin Fan landed beside Wangwang, threw away the iron stick, shouldered the sword, scooped up Wangwang into his arms, bent his legs, and with a thud, leapt into the air towards the sky.

Although he couldn’t fly, jumping higher was a basic skill that everyone possessed.

Wangwang’s mouth remained open, his eyes constantly sparkling.

The scene, though fleeting, left an indelible mark in Wangwang’s heart.

"Do you feel like you’re flying?"

"Yes, I’m flying."

Lin Fan smiled. He had no other talents; his only wish was for those living in Sunshine District to be happy. Children just needed to grow up happily.

Wangwang was still young; he shouldn’t have to bear such psychological shadows.

Landing.

"Wangwang, are you still scared?"

"No, not scared anymore."

"Right, the Monkey King will always be by Wangwang’s side, protecting him."

Zhu Wangwang took off the mask from Lin Fan’s face, shaking his head and saying, "Uncle Lin is the hero in my heart, not the Monkey King. With Uncle Lin around, I’m not afraid of anything."

Lin Fan was taken aback, then smiled and patted Wangwang’s head, "Alright, that’s also good."

Amidst the laughter, Lin Fan walked towards the district with Wangwang in his arms.

Wangwang’s fear of the zombies had dissipated, but he was still saddened by the thought of his grandparents. Lin Fan could only offer some comfort. Death was irreversible, and losing loved ones was always painfully sad.

As they left.

The empty street lay littered with the bodies of zombies. For the zombies, such was life, their meager existence merely served to alleviate the fears of a little boy.

It was really too much.

Dragon Palace base.

Professor Xia was studying Wenwen’s blood, which contained a type of special cell never seen before. These special cells quickly devoured and replaced normal human cells when mixed together.

He wondered what would happen if a normal person was injected with it.

Professor Xia pondered, thinking about what to do next. Human trials were necessary, and he couldn’t let others take the risk. Therefore, he had an idea—to wait for Eagle to return and continue the research on other Awakeners’ blood to see if there were the same special cells.

If there were, he would inject himself when it seemed a bit more mature.

This was a path that had to be taken.

Besides War Armor being the hope of humanity, if it were possible to enhance the physique of non-Awakeners, then humans could have a greater chance of overcoming zombies in the apocalypse.

As he thought this.

He received the news that Eagle and his team had returned.

Hastily setting aside his work, he left the laboratory.

Outside.

"This..." Professor Xia looked at the bodies of two Awakeners, utterly shocked—one of the corpses had been split in two?

Eagle naturally knew why Professor Xia was shocked.

After all, the state of that body was indeed overbearing.

"Professor Xia, they have been safely delivered," Eagle said.

Professor Xia replied, "Thank you for your hard work."

"It’s not hard at all. To be able to contribute to the future of humanity, we would not hesitate to sacrifice our lives."

Eagle’s expression was full of determination. He had cast aside the value of his own life. As long as he could help humanity’s future, he wouldn’t frown at any deed.

"Take them to the laboratory."

"Yes, Professor."

...

He City.

In the canal.

Wang Zixuan was different from other zombies. Other zombies couldn’t swim; if they fell into the river and were stimulated by motion, they would thrash aimlessly before sinking to the bottom.
