Chapter 1: The Beginning

  A blood-colored chill flashed in the air, and two mutated mosquitoes were torn apart, splashing blood everywhere. Compared to the powerful mutated rats and spiders, these weak but agile flying mutated mosquitoes caused even more trouble for everyone. They might not be a threat to themselves, but if they weren't quickly killed, their impact on the crowd would be huge, and Liang Jing also needed everyone's help.

  At this time, the mutated spider that was kicked half to death by Liang Jing in the room was suddenly attacked and eaten by the surrounding mutated monsters. Many of them even fought each other for the corpse, their eyes glowing red as they became more and more bloodthirsty and frenzied. Liang Jing's eyes lit up at the sight.

  "Hurry up... throw all the mutated monster corpses in the house into the room!" Liang Jing shouted loudly.

  Everyone looked at the mutated monsters fighting and killing each other in surprise, quickly taking action to throw the corpses into the room, thinking that monsters are just monsters without human intelligence, of course, that's because they haven't met high-level mutated monsters.

  At this time, the bloody smell inside the house had become thick and substantial, filling the entire space.

  As time passed, the mutant monsters had a certain degree of fear and apprehension about attacking the Great Hall. After all, many mutant monsters had died in battle, and even with low intelligence, they felt fear and pain. Now, there was "free" food available, and most were unwilling to attack the Great Hall.

  After the mutated monster's corpse was thrown into the room, the mutated monsters inside suddenly stopped attacking the hall. Only a small number of red-eyed mutated monsters continued to attack the hall. For a time, the room was filled with frantic scrambling, friction, screeching, and fighting. In the end, it was unclear whether it was due to the heavy bloody smell in the house or the outbreak of real fire, but they turned into a fierce slaughter, gradually expanding into chaos.

  It's no longer just about fighting for food.

  At this time, Liang Jing's pressure suddenly decreased a lot. These mutant monsters now seem to have lost all their sanity, only knowing how to be bloodthirsty, crazy and cruelly slaughter, crazily attacking different species of mutant monsters.

  Yes, mutated mosquitoes won't attack mutated mosquitoes, and mutated mice won't attack mutated mice. This seems to be an instinct, even if they lose their sanity, they won't attack their own kind. This is fundamentally different from humans.

  Of course, there are still many mutated monsters attacking the crowd in the hall. Now all the mutated monsters in the entire room have slowly become bloodthirsty, attacking any moving target they see, but compared to before when facing all the mutated monsters, it's much easier now.

  Crack... Hmph

  Liang Jing's legs moved, his body tilted to one side, and with a swift slash of his knife, he cut the mutated spider into three parts: head, thorax, and abdomen. In an instant, a white glow enveloped Liang Jing's body, nourishing and cleansing him. Since the battle began, Liang Jing's body had been constantly bathed in this white light, as if he were back in the womb, soaking in warm water that was always at a constant temperature, feeling extremely comfortable.

  As Liang Jing's intense battle movement consumed a lot of energy in his muscles, the white spiritual light that originally had little strengthening effect seemed to have found an opening and continuously surged in to nourish and fill them. Liang Jing checked the data again and still hadn't reached 10 times the physical quality of a normal person.

  It seems like this is a shackle, a restraint.

  But now Liang Jing feels that his body is getting better and better, muscles, bones, skin, cells, and even deeper are constantly changing, becoming more tenacious and solid, this is a kind of transformation.

  Removing the "battle state" phrase, previously only achievable with a powerful burst of energy, now normal behavior doesn't require preparation and can easily achieve this effect. It's like comparing a big fat guy to a muscular man - the big fat guy may have great strength too, but needs to grit his teeth and make a mighty effort to bring it out, possibly injuring his muscles in the process. In contrast, the muscular man only needs to move normally, just like he does every day, to unleash tremendous power.

  As the battles continued, his muscles, bones, nerves and meridians were constantly strengthened by the infusion of white spiritual light. The white spiritual light obtained from killing monsters would invade, supplement, cleanse and even eliminate muscle soreness after intense exercise as soon as there was a gap.

  Liang Jing's entire being is like a piece of iron ore that is constantly being hammered, with intense exercise consuming and replenishing, washing away the black toxic residue in the white light bath, slowly refining out the useless waste from the iron ore, gradually becoming a piece of tempered steel, this is a sharp transformation process.

  Even in the depths of Liang Jing's brain, which he had never noticed before, since the last time he actively absorbed the pure white spiritual light of Huang Jin Baroque, he once again actively absorbed the white spiritual light. The fine and thin threads passed through a layer of fog that could not be seen clearly, entering deep inside. From time to time, there were flashes of grayish-black light in the fog.

  It seems that waiting until a certain moment will suddenly change and grow, revealing itself.

  ……………

  "How haven't you died? How are you still not dead? Can't even this kill you?" The middle-aged security guard's face was dark and terrifying, his voice was particularly strange and oppressive, with a hint of nervousness and trembling. He began to regret it.

  It's been a long time now, and he has been sitting anxiously waiting to hear the despairing scream of horror that will come from Liang Jing being torn apart by the monster, bringing him a sense of satisfaction.

  But after waiting for a long time, it's probably around 3 or 4 in the morning now. The strange creature downstairs is getting more and more terrifying with its mournful howls, but Liang Jing and the others' voices are still very calm.

  Can't wait any longer!

  Thinking that Liang Jing had been fighting against the mutated monsters for so long and yet hadn't died, the middle-aged security guard couldn't help but narrow his eyes, revealing a look of fear. This showed just how powerful Liang Jing's combat abilities were! His heart grew even more uneasy, if Liang Jing didn't die, then he himself would definitely have no way out, it would be all over for him.

  Glancing at the three security guards beside him, he steeled himself and made up his mind to add more fuel to the fire, go all out! His face revealed a crazed expression.

  The middle-aged security guard immediately stood up and quickly opened the door, walking briskly towards the stairs leading to the rooftop.

  "Li Lao Da, where are you going?"

  "There are many monsters outside, it's dangerous..."

  “……”

  The middle-aged security guard ignored the crowd, picked up a gasoline bottle that had been prepared at the entrance of the stairs, and quickly walked to the front of the rooftop where he had prepared firewood.

  Peng...

  The middle-aged security guard quickly retreated two steps back, away from the burning flames, watching the fiercely burning woodpile under the pouring gasoline, with a sinister and terrifying smile under the orange-red firelight and black smoke.

  The three security guards who followed behind were stunned, what was Lao Da Li going to do?

  Didn't you see that the people who lit the bonfire earlier were all killed and eaten by the mutated monsters attracted by the flames? Lighting a bonfire on the rooftop, which can be seen from very far away, produces an effect several times more intense than this...

  No! Run away quickly...

  The three security guards left were completely frightened and wanted to find a way out of here, leave this building, it's too dangerous!

  The middle-aged security guard looked at the three fleeing people, sneering in his heart. Do you think you can really get away? There's no way out now. Even if you jump from the second floor, it won't work. The ground is too close, and outside are all monsters. It's simply like sheep entering a tiger's den.
