God and Devil World

Amidst his miserable screams, Lee Won Myung’s entire body turned into a pile of ash, leaving behind only the right arm containing the God and Devil Imprint.

After transforming into a monster, Lee Won Myung’s strength was only at the Type 5 realm. Facing Yue Zhong who was at the peak of Type 5 realm, there was no way of resisting.

Yue Zhong came up to the monstrous right arm and picked it up, his brows furrowing, ”What’s this?”

It was unlike any other monster limb that he had come across. As for Lee Won Myung’s form after transformation, it was also alien to Yue Zhong.

Yue Zhong looked at the pile of ash and pondered, ”This fellow has likely gone to another world. Yet, how come he doesn’t have a God-Devil Nucleus?”

The God-Devil Nucleus was a gold nucleus in Yue Zhong’s sea of knowledge and he could sense its power. He could faintly tell that it was the source of his strength, and should it disappear, all his powers would be gone as well.

Since he did not understand it, he could only hazard a guess, ”Maybe he didn’t get to the other world through normal means, hence he could not form a God-Devil Nucleus. Or maybe he could only reach the Type 5 realm after transforming.”

He shook his head and threw all thoughts of Lee Won Myung away, before placing the monstrous right arm to his own God and Devil Imprint.

Instantly, a bright glow radiated and enveloped Lee Won Myung’s imprint.

In the glow, Lee Won Myung’s God and Devil Imprint disappeared, swallowed entirely by Yue Zhong’s.

After Yue Zhong’s Imprint swallowed Lee Won Myung’s, a powerful energy swarmed into his body, directly pouring into his Gold Nucleus, which absorbed it greedily.

A number of profound and mysterious runes appeared on his Nucleus, bringing it to a higher state of abstractness and perfection.

Having absorbed the energy, the Gold Nucleus shot out a number of runes that congealed in Yue Zhong’s sea of knowledge, forming 3 silverish-white runes.

”Congratulations, you have learned the skill: Fourth Order Radiance of Life Control.”

”Congratulations, you have learned the skill: Fourth Order Devil Transformation.”

”Congratulations, you have learned the skill: Fourth Order Flight.”

The moment those 3 runes appeared, the notifications rang out one after another.

When Yue Zhong heard those notifications, his eyes flashed with joy, ”Flight!! This is great! With this ability, my survivability has improved again.”

Flight was a rare skill. When Yue Zhong had initially grown his survivor base to a million, he had not even seen one with Flight. Its rarity was apparent.

He regained his composure, and surveyed the surroundings, noting that the soldiers Lee Won Myung brought had already been killed by White Bones.

At the time when Yue Zhong made his move, he had already ordered White Bones to attack. With its strength, it was as easy as killing an ant.

After that messy conflict, the North Korean forces were only left with a few family members of those commanders. They were all pale, filled with fear as they eyed Yue Zhong, not daring to move.

Yue Zhong swept a gaze across those people, summoning Jung Ri Soo, ”Go take care of them. If they want to leave, give them 20 days of rations and send them on their way. If they want to stay, make sure they understand the rules here.”

Jung Ri Soo replied swiftly, ”Understood! Uncle!”

Those family members obviously did not trust Yue Zhong who was a foreigner, and amongst them, many chose to take the rations and leave. However, many others lacked the ability to survive on their own, thus they chose to stay, and handed their fates to Yue Zhong.

After resting for a while, Yue Zhong led everyone onwards to the border.

At the China-Mongolian border, across the vast plains, there were many tanks, IFVs, rocket launchers, cannons, armored vehicles, etc, forming a terrifying torrent of steel, making its way towards Hu Hot City.

The northeastern area of China was scarce of humans, instead, infested with zombies. It formed a natural barrier between the 2 countries. Thus, Russia could only attack through this border.

On the plains, within a secret hill, 4 soldiers dressed in military uniforms looked on at the convoy, their expression ugly.

One particular burly man looked through his binoculars, his countenance downcast, ”It’s those fucking Russians!! Damn it, they dare to come again.”

During the 2nd World War, when the Russians had attacked China, they did everything possible. Many of the older generations actually bore more resentment towards the Russians than the Japanese. This muscular Northeastern Han had people in his hometown that had suffered under those Russians back then, thus he was also brought up with the same resentment.

One soldier asked worriedly, ”Captain, what do we do?”

Gong Yang Sheng, the burly captain, shot the small soldier a look, before turning to another soldier with a radio set, ”What to do? Old Black, hurry and inform the higher-ups.”

Old Black chuckled and reported the intelligence.

Gong Yang Sheng then took up a heavy rifle and beckoned to the 3 soldiers, ”The 3 of you, disperse first, let me go teach these bastards a lesson, and let them know that our China is not a place where they can come and go as they please.”

”Captain, please take care.”

The 3 soldiers left behind words of concern, before leaving. They knew that they could not do much if they stayed.

Gong Yang Sheng waved his hands, ”I got it.”

They then swiftly rode their Black-scaled Stallions and left.

After they had gone, Gong Yang Sheng laid prone on the ground, readying his sniper rifle and aimed.

Two minutes passed before he suddenly pulled the trigger and activated his Enhanced Bullet skill.

A bright burst of light shot out towards one of the IFVs, and it exploded with a loud blast, killing some soldiers within and injuring the rest.

With that one strike, Gong Yang Sheng quickly got to his feet, his expression pale, as he rode his mount out into the plains.

Although he had such a powerful skill, faced with the massive Russian troops, he would be seeking death if he stayed.

The Russians reacted swiftly on their part as well when faced with the sudden assault. The convoy came to a stop as 12 IFVs, 4 tanks, and 200 soldiers quickly combed the area for the enemy.

At the same time, the unmanned flying drones in the air flew over.

Gong Yang Sheng was quickly discovered by the drones.

”Just one man? These Chinese soldiers are truly gutsy. However, victory belongs to our glorious Russian Empire.”

Inside the command center, a wizened middle-aged man dressed in military wear held a glass of wine in his hand as he gazed at the displays, sipping his drink and laughing lightly.

Another commander, who had short blue hair and was extremely young, frowned and spoke, ”Commander Gief, I feel that we’re not prepared for this mission. Our rations and fuel can only last 15 days. Should the battle last beyond that, our forces will be in a perilous position. China has already been unified under Yue Zhong’s rule, and they’re basically an iron plate now. With our current might, it’s truly hard to take them down within 15 days.”

Fights after the apocalypse had grown incredibly tough. It was because of this that the Kingdom of God, that had managed to amass strength, could still suffer some setbacks against Yue Zhong’s forces early on.

This time, the Russian Empire had deployed 20,000 elite forces to attack China. It was the limit of their mobile infantry deployment. Due to this, they had only brought along 15 days’ worth of rations and fuel.

The young lieutenant was thus not confident that their current might could invade China successfully.

Gief smiled mysteriously, ”Lieutenant Yevgeny, you’re right. If Yue Zhong were still in China, then our forces would definitely not be a match for him. However, he had already been missing for close to a year. The northern area is also fraught with complicated power struggles. No one has hope there, nor is there anyone that could lead their forces. Under such circumstances, if we throw all our forces into the assault, it’s not impossible to defeat them. Furthermore, it’s not just us eyeing them. We have other allies and reinforcements. Even if Yue Zhong were to make it back, there’s no way that he could stand against all of us!”

Yevgeny frowned and asked, ”Reinforcements, you mean the Kingdom of God’s forces? Weren’t they already defeated by Yue Zhong?”

Gief chuckled, ”Lieutenant Yevgeny, this is something you’re not required to know. Your current mission is to prepare well and to take down Hu Hot City. Once we have it, China’s capital and the Central Plains would be separated. Our mission would be halfway completed by then.”

Yevgeny replied in a solemn tone, ”Yes General!”
