Abing’s career path was not ideal.
The position he holds now was the result of years of accumulated merit, climbing step by step.
But he never expected it.
Being in charge of guarding the Magic Energy Steam Engine underground in Linjiang City, he would encounter such trouble.
Apart from spending several months underground with only artificial light, this job posed basically no other threats.
Yet, he unexpectedly ran into a monster underground, an unfortunate stroke of bad luck, and then the creature just happened to whip him on the forehead, killing him instantly.
At this moment, Captain Abing’s corpse twitched, slowly sitting up from the ground, his eyes momentarily hollow and dazed.
He was naturally no longer Captain Abing.
Kaz was adapting his fatigued spirit to this new body, a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes, and a smile gradually appeared on his lips.
The first and most crucial step to truly escaping Linjiang City.
To seize a body with a certain status, then head for the Spirit Realm.
To escape through the Spirit Realm.
By then, whether to go to the Spirit Realm Wilderness, another Shelter, or even a human settlement outside the Shelters, it doesn’t matter. As long as he escaped, there was a chance to make a comeback.
"Creating this mutant creature consumed the last of my body’s strength. This body’s Blood Qi is very diffuse, and it has suffered severe injuries, lacking much self-preservation power.
But under the current circumstances, it’s the best I can do.
I can’t follow them back to the base.
Otherwise, as this body’s Squad Captain, I would surely face a series of checks, and although occupying this body through the Devouring Fog makes it hard to detect, it doesn’t mean there won’t be any accidents."
Are what Kaz dislikes the most right now.
Two delighted soldiers helped Kaz, intending to pull him up. Yet, the central figure lying on the ground, a monster like a sea urchin covered in tentacles, swelled up like a balloon, and then with a stretch of its skin, exploded with a bang.
Upon the explosion of the sea urchin mutant, it wasn’t green blood that splattered, but a smoke-filled green gas.
The green gas filled the entire space.
The crowd turned chaotic.
"Don’t panic, everyone move toward the passageway, do not lose formation. We have protective suits, even if the gas released by this mutant is poisonous, it’s fine!"
Someone in the crowd immediately shouted, organizing those around.
The soldiers were all well-trained.
The panic subsided quickly after the initial chaos.
But Kaz, having deliberately detonated the creature’s corpse, how could he miss such a good opportunity?
He unleashed all the Blood Qi contained within this body, combined with the power contained in the Devouring Fog, fully erupting.
The powerful Blood Qi waves burst in the green mist, where visibility was extremely low, making it impossible to see where the attacks came from, and combined with the surrounding darkness, everyone was now effectively blind.
Someone immediately shouted loudly.
The crowd began to jostle and stir, rapidly squeezing towards the passageway. A few leaders among the teams shouted loudly, trying to regain control, but in such an extremely dark environment, coupled with the previous monster’s provocation.
Reorganizing the team was really too difficult.
No one knew who was launching attacks within the green mist, under this shadow-like life threat, everyone only dared to trust the few they were close to regularly.
And with the crowd’s momentum.
Along with the intricate terrain, and the complete darkness of surroundings.
The large group was quickly scattered, dividing into small teams.
"The green mist can block signals and electronic devices. Now the communication tools are useless," a soldier bitterly tossed away his phone, looking frustrated.
He was accompanied by two soldiers, neither of whom were Martial Artists, and dealing with them was not very difficult.
Eliminating them would allow him to escape amidst the chaos, leaving the city either as an Armed Department officer or entering the Spirit Realm.
"Captain Abing, we need to return to the base, hold on for now."
The two soldiers took turns carrying Abing, making slow progress through the darkness. Because of the dim lighting, their pace wasn’t fast, and the fact that they had lost contact with others made the journey extremely difficult.
They did not know that the Captain Abing on their backs had long since been replaced, becoming a notorious figure recently making waves in Linjiang. His corpse was still on the dissection table in Linjiang City, studied by numerous scholars and experts.
In the dark at this moment.
Kaz looked around, after not sensing the presence of anyone else, his eyes glinted with malice, and a brilliant flash of blood light streaked across.
The sound of a blade piercing flesh echoed in the silent black night.
The flashlight hit the ground.
The soldier carrying Kaz collapsed with a splash, inertia throwing him into the river, while the other soldier turned around, a look of astonishment still frozen on his face, his chest already pierced by a sharp blade.
Kaz coldly withdrew the knife, stabbing it into the soldier’s body again, expressionless.
After a few repetitions.
The soldier’s blood soaked his chest, eyes wide open, collapsed into the river unwillingly.
Kaz took a deep breath, his hand gripping the knife trembling due to excessive force. He swayed, his chest heaving from deep breaths, sounding like a blower.
This body’s condition was really not good.
As long as he could survive, it was all worth it.
"By killing these two, it won’t be discovered immediately. Even if what’s happening underground gets reported, it would be reported to the top, and those guarding the city gate or the Spirit Realm would be the last batch to receive a notification. Now I have a great chance to escape."
"It’s a pity, the Eye of the Black Moon I painstakingly cultivated has reverted back to its original form."
"But as long as I’m alive, that’s all that matters."
A strange light flickered in Kaz’s eyes, his expression shifting in the dark.
He knelt on the ground, his mouth stretching wide, taking large gulps of fresh air, sharp, indulgent laughter resounding in the darkness.
"Even if you shattered the Simulation Realm with all your might, so what? I’m still alive, and being alive means everything is possible, you can only become a corpse. Even if you sacrificed everything, what could you gain?"
"The final victory still belongs to me!!"
Kaz half-kneeled on the ground, his voice hoarse, venting his inner anger.
He normally wouldn’t be so out of control.
But these past few days.
He abandoned his original body, relied on the Devouring Fog to transfer his Spirituality, to continue living.
And then, struggling with all his might to cling to life, he managed to seize a body capable of exiting the city.
He finally had the opportunity to let it all out.
The voice echoed in the quiet, deep sewer.
No light in the darkness.
But as his laughter reached its peak, suddenly a spark cut through the black veil.
The piercing sound of a gunshot echoed in his ears.
Kaz’s shout cut off abruptly, his entire head exploded like a watermelon, blood splattering, his body blown away by the massive impact, rolling ten meters away.
A trail of blood marked the floor.
Baiyu held an R8 pistol, emerged from the darkness, expressionlessly pulled the trigger, the remaining five bullets hitting the headless body, exploding it.
