After saying this, Yasmin jumped up without any hesitation, gritted her teeth, and headed towards the direction where Ryan was being chased.
"Yasmin, what..." Wallace's face changed, and he subconsciously wanted to reach out to stop her, but he was still a beat too slow and failed to grab Yasmin's arm. He could only watch the woman he loved run away from him. "Damn it, Yasmin. He's just a guy with no family background, why are you giving him your attention?"
Finding that his attempt to stop her was ineffective, Wallace's face instantly turned as cold as a piece of ice, and the hatred in his eyes spread like flame. He said viciously in his heart: If that's the case, Yasmin, then this guy must die. Just because you treat him like this!"
At this time, Yasmin had already run far away, so naturally she couldn't hear what Wallace was saying behind her. She mustered up her courage and soon came to a place not far from Ryan. Seeing Ryan, who looked extremely pathetic as he was chased around by the brood corpse, she immediately let out a loud roar. "Ryan, I'm here to help you!"
As soon as she finished speaking, Yasmin quickly jumped up and threw the fire axe in her hand hard at the burly monster. Surprisingly, her performance was not too bad.
The axe blade that flew out of her hand spun vigorously in the air and hit the zombie leader's head like a knife wheel, making a dull thudding sound.
The axe blade cut the zombie leader's forehead, leaving a crack several centimeters long. The wound did not bleed, but some thick black ichor oozed out from his forehead.
Graaaaaaaargh! The zombie leader was injured again. Although the injury was far from enough to knock him down, the big guy still stopped chasing Ryan in anger and turned his ferocious head towards Yasmin, staring at her with two blood-red eyeballs as big as light bulbs, with red blood veins on them that seemed like they were about to burst out at any time.
How could he be confronted twice in a row by these two tiny humans? In a rage, the zombie leader roared again, turned suddenly, stepped towards Yasmin, and punched at her.
"Watch out!" Ryan, who had just escaped from the monster's pursuit, yelled and issued a warning.
The muscular monster seemed very clumsy, but the speed of his fist breaking through the air was extremely fast. In just a blink of an eye, the huge and ferocious fist was within reach. The hurricane made Yasmin's long hair rustle, giving a full sense of mortality.
But Yasmin actually dodged it.
When the fist was less than two meters away from her, the woman suddenly turned her nimble feet and quickly jumped into a pile of ruins. She used the shelter in the ruins as a cover and narrowly avoided the attack.
Obviously, although this woman was not a deviant, her potential was quite high, and she was much more flexible than most ordinary people. No wonder Wallace values her so much.
The monster's fist flew over empty air, causing dust and smoke to rise. A large amount of ruins also rose from the ground under the impact of the fist, forming a huge cloud of sand and dust.
Yasmin avoided the center of the fist, but she didn't expect that the power of this punch was enough to crush the bunker in the ruins. She was immediately swept by the shock wave and flew out involuntarily, screaming, "Aaaargh..."
Fortunately, at this moment, Ryan quickly rushed out from under the ruins, used his back to block the ruins blown up by the strong wind for him, and at the same time grabbed Yasmin's arm, pushed forward hard, and took her away from the ruins that were about to collapse.
"Ryan, are you okay?" Yasmin's face was pale. While fleeing in a panic, she did not forget to give Ryan a questioning look.
Ryan tightened his gaze, looked at Yasmin's pale face, and asked in a hoarse voice, "Why is it you?"
To be honest, Ryan never thought that Yasmin would rush out to help him at this time. He thought that this woman would continue to hide in the dark and watch his "good show" like Wallace, which surprised him.
Yasmin replied. "Why can't it be me? Are we not friends? "
Friends? Ryan's expression became complicated. He initially came here for revenge, thinking that as long as he could achieve his goal, he would not care about any means. But what Yasmin said at the critical moment disturbed his heart.
When Ryan was briefly stunned by this sentence, a hurricane blew up from behind him again, and the monster carrying the breath of death attacked again, and the shadow carried by the fist wind completely covered the two of them.
The afterimage broke through the air with great force and speed. The violent fist, carrying an extreme power, was enough to smash everything in sight.
"God, it's happening again!" Yasmin's face changed again.
Ryan also sensed the attack from behind him. With his reaction ability, he was able to shake off Yasmin and dodge on his own in time. However, because of what Yasmin had just said, Ryan, who should have been as hard as iron, became hesitant in the moment of danger.
He took a deep look at Yasmin and said quickly in a hoarse voice, "Okay, you helped me just now, and I saved your life too. From now on, no one owes anyone anything!"
As he spoke, Ryan concentrated all his strength on his arms, grasped Yasmin's shoulders, and pushed hard, "Go!"
"Aarg!" Yasmin screamed and flew backwards, her body falling heavily behind the parking lot.
Ryan turned around, stared at the zombie leader's bloodshot eyes with a dagger-like gaze, and laughed strangely, "Come on, let me see how terrifying your power is."
The fist of the Brood Corpse was as strong as a German bunker, accompanied by a huge hissing sound, and hit Ryan heavily.
With a snapping sound, Ryan's ribs broke and a mouthful of blood spurted onto the zombie leader's face. Even though his whole body was twitching in pain, he still had a cold and indifferent smile on his face.
Just because he was hit by the fist, he also gathered up his remaining strength, aimed at the zombie leader's left eye, and punched with all his strength.
Although the power of this punch was not as strong as that of the zombie leader, it overturned the mountain-like body and made it slide back several meters.
The fist was aimed directly at the monster's left eyeball, with such force that it burst with one punch, splashing out a large amount of thick fluid with a fishy smell.
Correspondingly, under the huge impact force, Ryan's body flew backwards like a shot put, blood gushing out of his mouth. He was thrown fiercely into the green belt at the edge of the parking lot. His body was covered by a large amount of grass, and he didn't move for a long time, as if he was already dead.
"Ryan!" Yasmin, who had just been pushed away, immediately got up in a panic, let out a shrill cry, and stumbled towards the place where Ryan fell. But before she could run two steps, she heard a dull and shrill roar in her ears.
She looked back in surprise, and then saw the zombie leader whose eyeball was blown out was retreating miserably, and he did not forget to cover his blown eyeball with both hands, and roared angrily. It was unknown whether it was because of pain or anger, and he even forgot to continue to attack them.
The feeling of having your eyeballs exploded was obviously not a pleasant one.
Although it was incredibly powerful and had abilities ten times that of an ordinary zombie, because it had evolved once, its body had acquired the sense of pain. So its screams were extremely chilling.

Ryan's words left the young woman momentarily speechless.She stood still, trying to piece together what had happened before she lost consciousness. Her memories did indeed end at the entrance to Hunter Village.She glanced out the window. The midday sun was so fierce that the ground outside seemed to shimmer in the blinding light.Only then did she begin to believe Ryan's explanation."Really...?"She asked tentatively."Otherwise, what do you think happened?"Ryan pointed toward the basin of water near her feet. She was standing so close that another step would have sent it tumbling over."Sorry!"The evidence was undeniable. She had suffered heatstroke and collapsed at the village entrance, only to attack the very people who had rescued her.The more she thought about it, the more embarrassed she became. Her face flushed, and she hardly knew where to look."Forget it. We shouldn't have crowded around you like that in the first place."Ryan wasn't particularly bothered. As long as n
792. The Visitor
Several days had passed since Hunter Village was named a model village, and as time went by, the villagers' enthusiasm for the honor gradually faded.During the first few days, villagers would gather at the entrance of Ryan's research institute to examine the plaque hanging on the gatepost. They would praise Ryan's achievements, occasionally mention Mr. Wallace, and leave with satisfied smiles.For some reason, ever since Hunter Village had received the model village title, Mr. Wallace had become noticeably more humble and composed. Whenever villagers praised him, he would simply chuckle without launching into the long-winded speeches he used to give.Ryan vaguely sensed that something had begun to change behind the scenes after the village received the honor.As the weather grew hotter, the villagers rarely ventured onto the roads during the day. They no longer needed to worry much about their farmland, either. As long as Ryan's irrigation system remained operational, the crops would

I've applied your established name replacements throughout, including Li Chen → Ryan, Li Qian/Xiaoqian → Lindsey, Zhang Xinyi → Cindy, Wang Xu/Secretary Wang → Mr. Wallace, Secretary Zhao → Mr. Zachary, and Lijia Village → Hunter Village. Chapter 5: Hunter Village's First Honor To Ryan's surprise, only one of the newly unlocked technologies was available for research. Central Control Terminal. "What exactly is this?" Ryan asked, looking at the sole available option. The system promptly explained. The Central Control Terminal was the primary interface responsible for managing all technologies. Once a technology had been successfully developed, the terminal would allow Ryan to make various adjustments to its functions and settings. However, developing the terminal required a new research institute. Furthermore, computer-related technologies had to

Chapter 4: A Five-Star Researcher"Brother Ryan, can I take a look?"A girl's voice suddenly came from behind Ryan.He turned around and discovered Lindsey leaning against the doorframe, peering curiously into the laboratory. He had no idea when she had arrived."Lindsey, this isn't a game. This stuff is genuinely difficult to understand."Although Ryan warned her, he still allowed her into the laboratory. Since everyone else was at a loss, letting her take a look couldn't hurt.With his permission, Lindsey hurried over to Cindy's computer and squeezed in front of the screen.The code was indeed complicated, but to Lindsey, it didn't seem quite as intimidating as everyone made it out to be. It was more like a foreign language she hadn't fully learned yet."Lindsey, you've been staring at the screen for a while without saying anything. Have you noticed something?" Ryan asked.Lindsey finally turned toward him."Brother Ryan, I'd like to give it a try."She stretched out her hands and p
791. A Place to Stay
Chapter 3: A Place to StayLindsey settled into Ryan's research institute that very evening.Ryan casually chose an empty laboratory for her to stay in. The laboratory itself wasn't important; what mattered was the small room attached to it. It had a bed and everything she needed to spend the night comfortably.Ryan's new research institute had no shortage of rooms. What it lacked was researchers. Giving Lindsey a place to stay was hardly a problem.After making sure she was settled, Ryan returned to his own laboratory and continued working on his research. He worked late into the night, only dragging himself to bed when exhaustion finally overcame him.The next morning, a hesitant knock at the laboratory door woke him.The knocking came in fits and starts, as though whoever stood outside wasn't sure whether to disturb him.Ryan jumped out of bed, hurriedly ran his fingers through his disheveled hair, and went to open the door.Two unexpected visitors stood outside: Lindsey's parents.

Chapter 2: A Runaway GirlSummer evenings were much cooler than the scorching days. As the sun slowly sank below the horizon, a gentle breeze swept through Hunter Village, carrying away the day's heat.Ryan and Jonas were taking a leisurely walk around the village when they heard a commotion coming from a nearby house.“Look at your grades! How can you possibly explain this?” a middle-aged man shouted angrily. “All you do is sit in front of that computer. Why can't you learn something useful instead?”“That's enough!” a woman added. “Look at Ryan. He's so young, yet he's already accomplished so much. And what about Brady? He didn't even finish high school, but he taught himself everything he needed to become a researcher. Why can't you learn from him?”“I can't do it!” a girl's voice screamed from inside the house. “I've tried, but I just can't learn those things! Why won't you leave me alone?”“Look at the way you're talking to us!” the man roared.A loud crash followed, as though so
