2025-02-20 15:08:21"What’s wrong with you?" Yasmin seemed to have noticed Ryan's indifference towards her and was surprised for a moment, because Ryan had never treated her this way before.
"Nothing, I'm just tired after wandering around outside for two days." Ryan shook his head, still ignoring Yasmin's gaze.
To outsiders, it seemed that he had only gotten separated from the team while searching for food and disappeared for a day.
Only Ryan himself knew that in this short day, he had experienced the entire process from birth to death and from death to birth. Both his mentality and personality had undergone tremendous changes under the pressure of death.
"Okay, then. Let's go back and join the others." Yasmin didn't know why Ryan suddenly became so cold towards her, but because of her pride as a beauty, she also lost the desire to continue the conversation.
In Yasmin's eyes, Ryan was definitely an extremely ordinary person. Just like his name, he had an ordinary family background, ordinary abilities, ordinary looks and height, and ordinary work ability. He was a person from a completely different world from herself.
Just because Ryan once chased after her, and even tried to please her repeatedly, he was able to maintain a seemingly good relationship with her. Of course, all this was based on the premise that he was a drooling dog.
But now, Ryan stopped licking her boots, and his attitude was cold. He was even unwilling to pay attention to her.
The atmosphere suddenly became a little awkward. Fortunately, there were many survivors on night patrol following Yasmin. Seeing that Ryan, who had disappeared for a day, was found alive, they all came forward enthusiastically to express their concern and happiness.
"Thank you for your concern. I'm fine." Facing these people's questions, Ryan's attitude was of gratitude but it remained cold. He just nodded indifferently, squeezed through the crowd, and walked towards the gathering point inside the cafeteria.
Ryan would not be like this in the past. Perhaps it was because he had experienced a life-and-death experience that made him tend to be more indifferent.
Soon, he squeezed through the crowd and re-entered the gathering point.
After three months of being a hiding place, the interior space of the cafeteria had also been transformed to a certain extent. The hall on the first floor was used to store groceries and various daily necessities, and there were many survivors guarding them.
The second floor was the living area for the survivors. It was divided into small rooms with wooden boards. Most of the survivors slept upstairs.
As for the third floor of the warehouse, it wss the living area for a small number of important people, including Wallace.
After the end of the world, the survivors were divided into three categories: one were the deviants with awakened veins for evolution. The second were the potentials who had the chance for evolution after they awaken their veins. The last were the commoners with no ability to evolve.
Before the recent events, Ryan's room was also on the second floor, so he subconsciously walked towards the stairs, intending to return to his original room to rest for a while.
In a few hours, a wave of zombies would appear according to his system notification. Although he has completed the initial evolution, his current abilities do not allow him to face a zombie tide independently, so he must come up with a solution as soon as possible and complete the two tasks while ensuring his own safety.
However, just as he stepped onto the stairs and was about to return to the second floor of the warehouse, a fat guy appeared in front of him again, blocking the staircase. "Ryan?"
Ryan stopped, looked up, and stared at the person standing on the steps. He raised an eyebrow and responded indifferently, "Yes, what do you want, Lucas?"
Lucas was also Ryan's former colleague, but their relationship has always been bad. Especially after the apocalypse, this fat guy who once pursued Yasmin like Ryan, actually turned to Wallace in order to survive and became one of his most loyal brothers.
Of course, there were more reasons why Ryan hated him. On the previous day, when he was ambushed by Wallace and kicked into the zombie swarm. The guy closest to Ryan was Lucas. Not only did not help him, but there was disdain in his eyes when turned around and ran away behind Wallace.
"How come you're still alive?"
"Hmm?" Thinking back to what happened the other day, Ryan's eyes suddenly turned cold, "Why do all of you seem to want me dead...?"
"Hey……what do you mean? Nobody wishes you dead..." Lucas obviously didn't expect Ryan to say that. He was stunned for a moment, then he forced a smile from his round face, "I'm just curious to know how you survived those things?"
"Maybe it's just pure luck, or maybe I'm already undead, just like them." Ryan ignored this guy and said. He was about to continue walking forward, but after taking only two steps, he stopped again.
Just because, in the corridor leading to his room, a tall and familiar figure appeared, which made Ryan narrow his eyes into blades.
It was Wallace!
At this moment, Wallace was surrounded by several minions of his who he liked to call little brothers, walking towards the stairwell with a smile on his face. When he saw Ryan who was left behind, came back, he was obviously shocked for a moment and the smile on his face gradually froze
However, this guy didn't ask Ryan how he got back like the others did. He just froze for a moment, then showed his signature arrogant sneer. "I'm quite surprised that you could make it back."
"Yeah, I didn't expect that I would still be able to return to this place alive either." Ryan was also smiling, but his eyes were narrowed into slits, but his gaze was as sharp as a knife. The murderous intent in his heart kept beating, making him clench his fists tightly. The burning anger was almost devouring his sanity.
Ryan, struggling to hold back his anger, almost pounced on Wallace, but in the end, he still managed to control himself and endured it.
Now was not the time to completely turn against him. After all, Wallace was also a deviant, and he had acquired the ability to evolve as early as the first month after the doomsday. Added to that were the minions around him, his little brothers, if there wss a head-on conflict, he would definitely come out worse off.
So he chose to endure it for the time being. He just raised his eyes, stared coldly at Wallace, and asked in a hoarse voice. "Why, Wallace?"

Ryan had never been able to figure out what he had done to anger Wallace, even though he was always careful and kind to others, that made him to do such a shady thing to him when they were looking for food?But Wallace did not answer the question directly. Instead, he put on his usual arrogant and playful sneer and asked knowingly, "What?"Ryan spoke slowly. "You know what you did yesterday afternoon, on the way back...""It was just an accident." Without waiting for Ryan to finish his words, Wallace shrugged his shoulders and pretended to be regretful. "I want to protect everyone, but you know, although I am a deviant, my ability is really limited. It is impossible for me to cover everyone in the face of a zombie tide. I believe you understand the situation, don't you?"When Wallace answered the questions, there was still a faint smile on his face, which made Ryan so disgusted that he wanted to vomit. He could understand that one should retreat in time when facing danger. After all, h

Ryan had always disliked this greasily guy. Before the apocalypse, this guy always relied on his connections in the unit to order him around as a newcomer. Secondly, he had once pursued Yasmin and repeatedly used his position to make things difficult for him.Now, he had even switched to being a minion of Wallace, and continued to act arrogantly and domineeringly, even trying to occupy his bed. Although the bed was small, Ryan couldn't tolerate this tone of humiliation."You lunatic, you broke my hand...!" Lucas's wrist was only dislocated but he squatted on the ground screaming like a pig being slaughtered.His screams quickly attracted a lot of people's attention and soon a large number of people rushed over.The first person to come over was Yasmin. The lady looked at Lucas, who was slumped on the ground and howling like a ghost, and became anxious, "Ryan, how can you be so mean? How can you bully your colleagues?""I didn't bully him." Ryan withdrew his hand indifferently and shrug

The fog was getting thicker. The increasingly thick fog also indicated that danger was about to come.Ryan didn't want to waste any more energy on arguing. Instead, he bent down and silently took out the rod on his back.But Wallace mistakenly regarded this behavior as a provocation. He frowned and said with a surly look, "What, are you planning to challenge me?"As the most powerful person in this gathering point and also a true deviant, Wallace was naturally not afraid of fighting with others. In fact, he had always looked down on Ryan. This guy who always knew how to accept everything and never wanted to have conflicts with others was basically a weakling in his eyes.But now, Ryan actually dared to show off an iron rod, a weapon with certain lethality, in front of him. Could it be that he had some support and was planning to compete with him for the position of the boss around here?Thinking of this, Wallace looked at Lucas, whose arm had just been reconnected, and even greater dou
Supreme Evolution 8. Here They Come [III]
Were zombies really coming?Everyone was completely shocked as turned their eyes towards downstairs. They saw many swaying black shadows appearing outside the barbed wire used to isolate the danger.These dark shadows were all dressed in rags, with dark green faces, skinny bodies, and terrifyingly ferocious looks.Following the trend of the spreading fog, they approached the barbed barricades, step by step. Some had already reached the edge of the barbed wire, stretching out their rotten claws and scratching at the wire aimlessly. What's worse, some even opened their big mouths and started gnawing on the metal wire on the isolation net.The thick fog was slowly approaching the warehouse, and the number of zombies hiding in the fog was also slowly increasing.At first, there were only two or three, but gradually, the number began to grow to ten, fifteen, twenty..."Damn it, why did so many zombies appear here all of a sudden!""Could it be that what Ryan said is true?"Looking at the zo
Supreme Evolution 9. Is It Because of Me?
This question made Ryan feel a little at a loss.Yasmin continued. "Tell me the truth, why do you hate Wallace so much? Is it because of me?""..." Ryan was speechless for a while. He looked at Yasmin's face, which was charmingly confident, and shook his head helplessly.Once upon a time, he did feel jealous because Yasmin and Wallace were too close. But that was a long time ago. Faced with such a cruel doomsday environment, Ryan no longer had the energy to care about these matters of love between men and women. It was too childish.Yasmin continued to ask, "Answer me, is it true or not?""It was never because of you...." Ryan responded. Although he felt helpless, he decided to make his words clear. However, before he could finish his words, other survivors following behind the two men exclaimed."Can't you guys talk about something serious? The zombies are coming soon, can't you see that?"Ryan stopped and immediately turned his gaze to the crack in the door.Within a few seconds, sev
Supreme Evolution 10. Body Enhancement
A zombie on the left quickly approached, opened its ferocious mouth, towards the human's neck in front of it, but Ryan had already heard Yasmin's reminder and had no time to look back, nor did he need to look back.Having already broken through the gate of evolution to become a true deviant, not only had his strength and explosive power increased exponentially, but his ability to predict the environment had also improved to a certain extent.Just by relying on the slightest sound of the wind around him, he could accurately judge the enemy's attack route.He retracted his neck, bent his legs, and lowered his body, avoiding the attack with great ease. At the same time, he swung the wooden rod and attacked from bottom to top. The sturdy wooden rod accurately hit the zombie's lower abdomen, piercing it cleanly.The second zombie pounced from the right, extending its slender and sharp claws, and headed straight for Ryan's chest.Ryan didn't even look at it. He freed his left hand, swung it
Supreme Evolution 11. Why Did I Have To Tell You Anything?
Facing this dying guy, there was no mercy in Ryan's eyes.After all, Lucas was one of Wallace's top associates. A long time ago, he had bullied him many times by taking advantage of his power. Although Ryan chose to endure it at that time, it did not mean that he would forget those conflicts.Lucas was in great pain. A piece of his neck had been bitten off, and his body was covered with scratches of all sizes, but he did not die immediately. His trachea, exposed to the air, was still making labored "ho ho" sounds, as if he was trying hard to breathe, but the air cavity had been completely blocked by blood, and he could not even complete the simplest breathing action.Yasmin was still trying to hold his wound, applying first aid while encouraging him to hold on a little longer. She even turned her gaze to look at Ryan, whose momentum had greatly changed, and pleaded, "Ryan, can you come and help?""We can't save him. It's too late." Ryan didn't say more words. He just lowered his head a
Supreme Evolution 12. Chaos In The Warehouse
Yasmin was speechless again.Yes, before the end of the world, Ryan tried so hard to get close to her. Even if they couldn't be lovers, he hoped they could become friends.But what about Yasmin herself?As a beauty that she was, she had always been arrogant and always felt that people around her should unconditionally please her, but she never saw their efforts.What was the point of lingering around a woman like this?"So this is what you really think." At this moment, Yasmin finally understood why Ryan was so cold to her, and her expression became even more anxious. "It's not what you think. At that time, too many colleagues around me wanted to date me. I couldn't tell who was really thinking about me and who was doing it for my family's wealth. What's wrong with me being cautious?""You are right. How you treat the people around you is your own business." Ryan shook his head and said calmly, "Similarly, it is my right to treat our relationship in any way I want."Yasmin was complete

82. The Death Troll [V]
The black blade light, like a streak of silk, instantly scattered vertically like a waterfall, completely covering a number of zombies.The zombies couldn't keep up with Ryan's movements at all. With a flash of the knife, their bodies and necks were separated. The powerful knife light chopped their bodies apart and turned them into a pile of disgusting and smelly rotten meat.Ryan exerted the powerful combat power of the six-star deviant to the limit. The sword light like a streak of obsidian silk, slashed from top to bottom. Every time the sword light cut through the air, it would cruelly dismember the enemy without leaving any gaps.In an instant, five zombies died one after another, and sticky blood splattered everywhere, dyeing the wall dark red.Ryan's expression remained unchanged. He didn't even look back. He just turned around slightly and shook off these troublesome guys, successfully opening up a new passage.In the blink of an eye, several zombies were killed one after anot
The Death Troll [IV]
Here we go! Ryan's face darkened. He didn't even need to look back. He had already determined what was attacking him by the swooshing sound caused by his fist pressing the air.Only that giant zombie with an enormous size could have such momentum. In fact, having evolved to the level of a giant zombie, it had already developed a certain level of intelligence, and was quite wary of Ryan, who was a tough nut to crack.So after it appeared, it did not attack Ryan immediately, but relied on the oppressive power of its eyes to try to force away this extremely powerful human. As long as Ryan withdrew in time and no longer delayed its feeding, this guy would not take the initiative to cause trouble for Ryan.But as the battle broke out, Ryan stayed by the side of these humans, relying on the killing effect of his long sword to continuously block several attacks from the tide of zombies.With this man blocking the way, the zombies were unable to completely break through the team's defense lin
80. The Death Troll [III]
In the entire team, Yolanda was undoubtedly the most aggressive one.She had just completed her evolution and did not have sufficient control over the energy in her body, and her combat power was far inferior to Ryan's. But nonetheless, she was the most capable fighter in the entire shelter except Ryan. When the zombies came aggressively, this woman with a strong character immediately showed the spirit of a big sister and stood at the front of the team with only a dagger. Her speed was extremely fast, not much slower than Ryan's, especially since she had mastered the energy of wind attribute, and was able to insert the energy into his dagger. Every time she swung the dagger, a sharp swooshing sound would be heard. It was extremely sharp, enough to easily cut off a monster's head.Correspondingly, Barrett, who was forced into a desperate situation, had to gather his remaining men, form a team, and break out in the direction where the number of zombies was relatively small.He initial

The giant zombie just bit off the upper half of the food in one bite, and chewed it with its big mouth, making a crunching sound. A lot of blood flowed along the corners of its mouth, like a muddy stream, falling from mid-air and pouring on the faces and bodies of these people.The death troll ate very quickly. After just a few obstructions, it could not wait to stuff the lower half of their bodies into his belly. Its bloody gums acted like a meat grinder, chewing the fresh food into pieces again and again, and then swallowing it down with a look of enjoyment.With a gurgle, the man disappeared completely into its stomach.Apart from the bloodstains all over the ground and the blood foam that had stuck to the corners of the giant zombie's mouth, there was no other trace to prove that the man had ever existed."Ah... Monster, monster..."The crowd was instantly frightened, including Barrett, who had been very arrogant before. He was so scared that he passed himself and wished he could
78. The Death Troll
The onslaught was too fast. Ryan was unstoppable with full firepower, and with the help of the long sword, he was almost like a berserker. These ordinary zombies were chopped into pieces by the blade in an instant in just one go. The bloodthirsty killing made his eyes shone red, and his face became more and more gloomy. After a short charge of more than ten seconds, he actually cleared all the zombies outside the corridor and tore open a bloody path.This kind of combat performance was so fierce that he didn't seem like a human being at all.The people following behind him were also speechless with shock at his killing achievements. Yolanda towards with Ryan, looking at the body fragments lying on the ground, and couldn't help thinking: This guy...what level of deviant was he? Why was he so strong?Barrett's cheeks were also trembling. When he thought about how not long ago he had planned to take advantage of the number effect to take on Ryan, he suddenly felt extremely scared. Tha
77. Follow Me, or You'll Just Die Here
As Yolanda retreated, the other survivors guarding the shelter were soon faced with a massacre.That was a real massacre.The ventilation holes had been completely opened, and the number of zombies pouring in was far more than during the days when they besieged her.In less than ten seconds, at least twenty zombies had crawled in through the ventilation hole.The moment these filthy monsters landed, they pounced on the group of survivors who had no time to react and started a bloody massacre.The survivors who originally thought that they only needed to guard the passage and everything would be fine did not expect that so many zombies would appear behind them. Under the crazy killing and siege of these zombies, corpses soon appeared in front of them.Zombies had huge appetites for blood. Not only did they have no sense of pain, they also seem to have no idea what fullness was.More than twenty zombies attacked at the same time and soon tore the old man's body into pieces. Then, with t

In comparison, the old man whose lower abdomen was cut open was in a miserable state.His stomach was ripped open, his intestines were dragged out, blood gushed out immediately, and his internal organs also poured out, covering the entire ground. He watched as the zombies stuffed his intestines and internal organs into their mouths in big mouthfuls. The zombies chewed and pulled out the remaining intestines and organs.The severe pain made him feel like dying, and the fear of death forced him to make the most terrifying cry for help in his life. "Aaagrh... help, help me..."Sadly, most people were stuck in the passage ahead, and there was no time for his rescue.What's more, he was so seriously injured that even if someone mustered up the courage to rescue him, he was destined to die. So he fell on the ground howling, waving his hands weakly, and watching the zombies eat him alive.And more zombies came. Stimulated by the taste of blood, they became extremely ferocious and crazy. The
75. No Way Out
Faced with Yolanda and Barrett's blind confidence, Ryan frowned but did not say anything. His only thought now was to use the terrain to defend this place, preferably avoiding the attention of higher-level zombies and spending the night safely.However, things often do not develop as expected.Just as everyone blocked the passage and successfully intercepted the large number of zombies, an extremely terrifying and dull growl suddenly came from a certain area outside the supermarket.The voice was as deep as an old grizzly bear, carrying the breath of an extremely ferocious beast. As the growl spread, the ordinary zombies that poured into the passage became even crazier. They completely ignored the survivors' weapons and launched a collective suicidal charge.“Damn it…” Ryan also heard this deep growl, and his heart suddenly tightened, and the corners of his mouth twitched.The roar just now was definitely not from an ordinary zombie. It was a sound made by at least a level two creatur
74. Defending the Passage
At this time, more ferocious growls and spine-chilling roars were heard from outside the shelter door, mixed with traces of banging on the barricades.After a while, the isolation net outside the supermarket completely collapsed, and then the zombies began to attack the gate, and even climbed along the outer wall of the supermarket, through the glass doors and windows, and continuously poured into the supermarket hall.Although the internal space of the supermarket was complicated, Yolanda had built several floor-to-ceiling windows on the outer wall in order to attract customers. Those ordinary glasses could not withstand the impact of the zombies. After a while, the sound of glass shattering resounded throughout the supermarket. Many windows were forcibly destroyed by zombies, and one zombie after another crawled in through them."Oh no! The outer barricades has been breached." Hearing the sound of windows shattering due to impact, Yolanda's face turned slightly pale. She immediatel
