Chapter 679: Mo Yan’s Past
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Wu Chengyue had a short fight with the zombie emperor last night, but didn’t see his face carefully. Now, in broad daylight, he saw that half of Mo Yan’s undamaged pretty face was covered in blood veins.
Abruptly, he asked the zombie with a faint smile, “You still have your memory, meaning that you didn’t forget that you used to be a human. Did you gather all these high-leveled zombies to destroy human beings?”
Hearing the question, the zombie emperor turned his eyes to Wu Chengyue’s face. He really didn’t like that person. He had waited for three days, but the one that he wanted to see didn’t show up. Mo Yan got a little impatient.
“Roar…” He bared his teeth and roared at Wu Chengyue.
“He said that he has human memory, but that doesn’t mean anything. He is no longer a human!” Yun Meng translated his words for Wu Chengyue.
Mo Yan didn’t answer Wu Chengyue’s question, even though he guessed right.
He gathered all those high-leveled zombies, and also worked hard to break into level-eight, all because he wanted to destroy the mankind!
He had human memory, so he would never forget about how human beings betrayed him, and how he became a zombie.
Five years ago… Well, since January had already pa.s.sed, it should be six years ago. When the apocalypse came, the others either became zombies or triggered superpowers. Unlike them, he was in a semi-coma and a high fever. His body temperature had even reached sixty degrees. Back then, he was woken up by the woman he loved. She was screaming with fright; she needed his protection.
His head was aching, and so was his entire body; he was weak and powerless. However, to protect that woman, he tried his best to keep himself awake. He and his trustworthy subordinates protected that woman as they left his villa and temporarily moved into an apartment in a tall building.
In a couple of days, a few among his bodyguards triggered their superpowers. His a.s.sistant, the man that he trusted the most, attained fire power, and that woman was gifted with s.p.a.ce power.
He was still in a fever, without any superpower and totally defenseless. So, he soon became a burden of the group.
Most of his subordinates and bodyguards were loyal to him. He was in the gang for more than ten years; he had been through a lot, and his experiences taught him how to win hearts. His people respected him; they were loyal to him, and he trusted them.
Among all, he trusted Weiming the most. Weiming was his a.s.sistant and best friend. He was like a brother to him. They grew up together, and survived in the underworld together. They were together for more than twenty years. He always believed that Weiming would never betray him.
Weiming once took a bullet for him. If it weren’t for Weiming, he believed that he would have died.
However, ten days after the apocalypse when he was still powerless, he faintly sensed that Weiming was acting strangely.
As a gangster, he needed to stay vigilant every single day, because his enemies were always trying to kill him through all sorts of means. For that reason, he had developed keen observation.
However, once he started to notice Weiming’s strange behavior, that woman, Lin Jingjing, would smartly divert his attention.
He loved that woman; he loved her with all his heart. He gave her whatever she wanted, and believed everything she said.
However, that woman never loved him. After the apocalypse, she found that he was powerless, and thought that he might be sick. She believed that he would never recover, so she started to seduce Weiming secretly.
To her surprise, Weiming had been drooling after her since long ago! He was also a hypocrite, as he never saw Mo Yan as a brother.
In secret, he had already devoured half of Mo Yan’s force. By threatening or bribing, he had brought a big half of Mo Yan’s subordinates under his control.
If it weren’t for Lin Jingjing, he would have killed Mo Yan once the apocalypse started.
He was surprised that Lin Jingjing thought through it so soon. Realizing that Mo Yan was powerless, she turned to Weiming without hesitation.
Therefore, Weiming launched his move very soon. Unexpectedly, a few of Mo Yan’s subordinates who were especially loyal to him risked their lives and saved him. Weiming killed those people, but Mo Yan managed to run at last.
Back then, Mo Yan couldn’t believe what happened. As he finally accepted it as a fact, he grew an anger and hatred that he never had before. He loved Lin Jingjing for a long time, and after knowing the truth, he hated her deeply.
He escaped, and for sure, he would find a way to revenge.
Back then, he had no strength, and his subordinates had all died. He could barely protect himself, so the plan of revenge was postponed. He needed to survive first!
He was so weak, avoiding those zombies and trying to find food with difficulty. Before he was starved to death, he suddenly felt that his strength had come back. His head stopped aching, and all of the discomfort had gone.
Then, he found that the zombies he saw all ignored him. He walked through a crowd of zombies like an invisible person. Finally, he stopped worrying about food.
Soon enough, he caught up with Weiming and the others, killing Lin Jingjing with a scheme. However, Weiming ran away.
He was a sentimental person, but he could also be brutal. For the people who had betrayed him, he was never soft-hearted. He could kill the people that failed him without hesitation.
Weiming knew him the best, and he knew Weiming the best as well. At last, Weiming pushed Lin Jingjing out to take the bullets, and also to distract Mo Yan. At that moment, he grasped the opportunity and ran.
Later on, Mo Yan discovered his special superpower. His blood and flesh were able to block zombies’ sensations, and make humans upgrade faster.
He hid that well. But still, Weiming managed to find out about it. Since then, some selfish superpowered human beings started hunting him.
Mo Yan’s power protected him from zombies, but didn’t give him a strong physical force. Specifically, he was stronger than commoners, but weaker than all the other superpowered humans. After he ran out of bullets, he had no choice but to run for his life every time he encountered other superpowered humans.
More and more people learned about his special power, and they started sieging him. He was on the run for a year, but at the beginning of the second year after the apocalypse, he was finally caught.
He spent a year in a lab, watching people cut off his flesh slice by slice. That pain made him long for death. He couldn’t die, just being driven crazy.
Only the strong hatred had been supporting him—the hatred toward human beings.
He died at last, as those people almost cut him open into pieces. But, a crowd of zombies suddenly attacked the place, because of which, he wasn’t broken into parts.
He eventually turned into a zombie. Perhaps, his wounds had absorbed the zombie blood.
Unexpectedly, his body condition changed once again after he became a zombie. His lost flesh all grew back, and lightning power woke up inside him.
