2025-12-07 05:11:53“Put that Skeleton Soldier away, Lyndric Fayne. I’m bleeding too much right now. Once we get back to Moonspire Academy Base, we’ll figure out how to actually use it,” Kael Ardyn muttered sharply, the words echoing straight into the War God System agent’s mind.
The Skeleton Soldier moved like clockwork, each bony limb clicking with unnerving precision. Step by step, it approached him, deliberate and controlled, like it understood exactly how serious things had become. The metallic rattle of its bones filled the cockpit, a strange, ghostly music that reminded him of the power they now held in their hands.
It stopped at Kael’s side and stretched out a hand. Pale, skeletal fingers brushed his forehead. A cold shiver raced through him—quick, fleeting, but real. Then, just as suddenly as it had appeared, it was gone.
Kael blinked. For a heartbeat, he thought he’d seen it grin—empty sockets and teethless jaw forming

Chapter 135: Releasing the Monsters and the Skeleton Legion
Kael Ardyn spun around, eyes scanning the lab. Rows of glass containers stretched before him, each holding a monstrous evolution of the biochemical virus he had spent so long mastering. They sat there, quiet, almost peaceful—but anyone who knew better could see the danger coiled beneath the surface. A sly grin tugged at Kael’s lips. He had an idea, one that could thin the ranks of mercenaries standing in his way.“Well,” he murmured, amusement dancing in his eyes, “the world’s already gone to hell. Might as well stir things up a little more.”In this world, anyone with exceptional genes—humans or animals—is transformed under the zombie virus. With time, the infected evolved into the advanced monsters now resting in the containers. The thought sent a rush of excitement through him.“If I let these monsters loose, it could speed up the zombies’ evolution across the city,” he thought, fingers f
Chapter 134: Entering the Commercial Tower
Time crept by, unnoticed but relentless. Half an hour had passed since the zombie virus hit, and Tari City’s streets were nearly empty. Those who remained—if they could still be called alive—hid in homes, behind bolted doors, or in any sealed room they could find.The city was silent. Normal communication? Dead. Every government news broadcast repeated the same tired warning, over and over:"Attention all citizens: due to the spread of an unknown virus, please remain indoors. Lock all doors and windows. Government and military rescue units are on their way, estimated arrival time of approximately twenty hours. Beware of infected individuals."It sounded like hope, but it was a lie. People clung to it anyway, shivering in dark corners, pretending there might be salvation.Salvation wouldn’t come. Not in twenty hours. Not ever. Tari City was marked for destruction. A nuclear strike would turn the city to dust, and the government woul
Chapter 123: After the Viral Outbreak
The underground parking lot of the commercial tower was quiet. Too quiet. The only sound came from the soft hum of the elevator. Its entrance was tucked away, hidden from casual eyes. One of the lab’s secret exits. A lifeline for anyone brave enough—or foolish enough—to use it.Kael Ardyn led the group down the cold concrete steps. Their boots echoed faintly. A few quick taps on the keypad. A short pause. The elevator doors slid open, groaning slightly as if complaining about the weight of the passengers. Slowly, it descended, taking them toward the outer perimeter of the lab.Alice clutched her bag tightly, her small hands shaking. Hundreds of mercenaries flanked her, weapons raised, eyes scanning every shadow. For a heartbeat, everything was silent. Just the kind of silence that feels like it’s holding its breath, waiting.Then they stepped out through the academy gates, and the world erupted. The streets, once littered with collapsed s
Chapter 122: Mission Issuer
The communicator in the lab buzzed sharply. Kael Ardyn’s fingers moved quickly, almost dancing over the controls as he sent the same urgent message to more than ten mercenary corps around Tari City.Inside a middle school in Tari City, a young girl had to be brought out alive. Her safety was non-negotiable. Resistance would be brutal. The extraction point? That would be revealed once she was secured.The enemy forces were massive, and casualties were expected to be high. Only the strongest, most disciplined mercenary corps should respond. Time was critical. Multiple teams would take part. Protect the girl, and you’d receive full compensation. Make a special contribution, and you’d get extra rewards.No unnecessary conflict. The enemies were extraordinarily powerful. Financial resources were abundant.Within minutes, eight mercenary corps answered the call. Curiosity and the promise of a big payout drove them forward. Kael didn’t ev
Chapter 131: Contacting the Mercenaries
Alice’s parents barely even noticed the gun Kael Ardyn held. They moved with sharp, urgent precision, like every second was a knife pressing against their backs. On the lab table, two injectors clicked to life. Sleeves rolled up, veins exposed, and in one swift motion, they injected themselves with a shimmering serum that faintly glowed under the harsh fluorescent lights. Time was slipping away, and they knew it.Kael barely had a moment to react before a metallic voice boomed in his mind.“Host has activated the human gene-enhancement virus. It is spreading across the main world. Current outbreak zone: Moonspire City. Population: over one million. Based on genetic traits, residents will be selectively infected and transformed into zombies. The first wave is expected to affect more than one-third of the population. Injuries will trigger further infection. Within ten hours, over ninety percent of the city could be turned. Early symptoms: fever, dizziness, fa
Chapter 130: Virus Outbreak
Alice’s parents moved as if the weight of some secret pressed down on them. Every glance, every shallow breath, betrayed fear. Kael Ardyn followed a step behind, calm and deliberate. His gun hung loosely in his hand, but the air around him seemed to sharpen, almost metallic.They crossed the narrow living room into the kitchen. Ordinary tiles, ordinary counters, yet something about Alice’s father made it feel unreal. He approached the sink, hesitated, and then twisted the faucet left and right in a practiced rhythm. Kael noticed immediately—someone would repeat this motion only countless times before.At first, nothing happened.Then—a faint click from beneath the counter.Alice’s mother froze. Kael’s eyes narrowed.A rectangular panel slid open under the sink, revealing a narrow tunnel of smooth metal, dimly lit from inside.Kael raised an eyebrow. “Secret doors under kitchen sinks.
