They didn't take Quy Thu Nguyet's criticisms to heart.
Having finally shaken off their fear, how could they be swayed by Quy Thu Nguyet's few words?
That was definitely impossible.
"Hilarious! Doesn't this woman sound hilarious? She's actually preaching such great principles to us. When we were in despair during the apocalypse, who came to save us? Who ever cared about us?"
The female Mutator, having recovered from her shock, couldn't help but laugh out loud. The look in her eyes as she looked at Lam Pham was filled with ridicule.
The other Mutators around her all nodded.
They strongly agreed with this statement.
Quy Thu Nguyet said, "At that time, everyone was in despair, facing unimaginable dangers. But I always believe that the more people unite, the fewer people there are with darkness in their hearts. They are just a very small minority."
"Hahaha." The only female Mutator's expression gradually twisted. Her five fingers grasped her temples, and she laughed hysterically, "Unite? Darkness? You stand there lecturing us, do you know what I've been through? Do you know what I've suffered? Do you think a few words from you can erase the suffering I've endured?"
The female Mutator's emotions gradually lost control, her expression becoming very ferocious, her eyes flashing with a thick, crazy look.
Quy Thu Nguyet stared at the other's ferocious face and said no more. She knew that the suffering the other had endured was a kind of torture for her. She was a person who had experienced despair.
She didn't continue with those words. Without experiencing it herself, who could understand this kind of pain? She even thought, if she had encountered these things, would she still be able to maintain her original nature? Would her mentality not change after gaining power?
She didn't dare to say.
She didn't dare to promise.
"I understand you, but no matter what, there is still hope in the apocalypse. Lam Pham from the Hoang City Sunshine Shelter is that hope. The people living there are also hope. Don't you want to pursue a normal life? It's not too late to turn back."
Quy Thu Nguyet said sincerely, hoping to move them with her sincerity. Humans really couldn't continue fighting among themselves. The casualties were too many. Every human who died represented a reduction in the hope for humanity.
"Hahaha."
"This is hilarious."
"Are all the people from the Hoang City Sunshine Shelter so naive?"
"A bit naive. Maybe she sees herself as a savior. What's the point of talking nonsense with them? Let's just attack and capture them."
The seven Mutators would naturally not be completely awakened by Quy Thu Nguyet's few words. If they could be awakened, they wouldn't have been like this for so long. They would have had the opportunity to change long ago.
"Be careful. They are hard to persuade. They are about to attack," Quy Thu Nguyet reminded them. The formation the other party had taken was clearly to launch an attack on them. They had armor, so safety was naturally not a concern. But Chu Loi had no armor to protect him, so the danger might be relatively high.
Pang Vien nodded and then said softly, "Chu Loi, stay close to us later. Don't face them alone."
"I understand," Chu Loi nodded.
After the assignments were made.
Quy Thu Nguyet looked at them with a solemn expression and said, "I hope you can consider it carefully. Once you attack, you will be enemies, and we will not hold back."
These few Mutators before her were indeed not weak, but Quy Thu Nguyet herself felt she was stronger and didn't think it would be a big problem. It was just that she didn't want this group to seek death. As Mutators, if these people could be won over like Kieu Uy from the base, then the chances of finding the organization behind the Mutators would be even greater.
"Hilarious! You all should prepare to die!"
One of the seven Mutators roared, not putting them in his eyes at all. Then they exchanged a glance and fiercely charged towards Quy Thu Nguyet and her group.
"The one without armor is mine."
"The hunt begins! Let them taste the flavor of fear."
"That guy with the axe seems interesting. I'll play with him."
During the attack, they clearly divided their opponents.
A great battle erupted in an instant.
Their formation was 2-2-3. Three Mutators dealt with Quy Thu Nguyet, while the others dealt with Pang Vien and Chu Loi.
Chu Loi's strength was the weakest in the team.
Being targeted by two Mutators, the pressure naturally increased dramatically. But even so, Chu Loi faced the situation before him without the slightest fear. He knew that after following Quy Thu Nguyet and her group in the apocalypse, he would definitely encounter many dangers.
He would not be afraid, and he could not be afraid.
He wanted to be a man with dignity.
Not like at the base, where he gradually became a stray dog in the apocalypse. That was not what he wanted.
"Hehe, three of us against one of you. It really looks like we're bullying a woman, but we just like to bully people. We like to see that helpless look in your eyes when you're in despair."
"Hehehe..."
The three Mutators surrounding Quy Thu Nguyet spoke nonsense before the battle began.
This was a basic skill.
Since becoming Mutators, they had completely unleashed themselves, lawless. Except for the members of the Mutator organization, no one else was worthy of their notice.
"Stinky bitch, go to hell for me!"
Taking the lead was a strong middle-aged man. There was a torn wound at the corner of his mouth. The wound looked like a centipede, giving people a ferocious and terrifying feeling, an indescribable sense of pressure.
This wound was left from a fight with others in the early days of the apocalypse. After that incident, his mentality completely changed.
The impression that there were no good people in the apocalypse was deeply imprinted in his mind.
Except for himself, no one was trustworthy.
His speed was very fast. One of his arms changed, flesh and blood twisting and intertwining. In the blink of an eye, it turned into a flesh and blood scythe, which he swung fiercely, drawing an arc.
Faced with such a blow, even special steel would be shattered. This was the strength of Mutators. They looked like they had flesh and blood bodies, but their body structure had undergone a dramatic change.
Their strength had reached a limit.
Clang!
"What?"
The centipede man's eyes widened in disbelief.
The flesh scythe he swung should have cut the other's body in half, but the woman in front of him didn't move an inch. His blow landed on her arm, and her arm was completely fine.
All the damage was blocked by the armor covering her arm.
He looked intently.
The armor glinted coldly in the sunlight, as if a future tech warrior had appeared before him.
"How is that possible?" the centipede man said in shock.
Quy Thu Nguyet looked at him indifferently and said slowly, "Nothing is impossible. This armor was given to us by Lam Pham from Hoang City. It has been enhanced with crystals. Do you think you can break through the defense of this armor with your strength?"
When she said this, Quy Thu Nguyet's eyes as she looked at him were filled with a look that said he was overestimating himself.
The centipede man naturally knew about the armor's situation.
But he really didn't know that the other's armor was so tough. It was simply incredibly terrifying.
"Up, let's go together! Don't give her a chance to breathe!"
The centipede man shouted, pulling the other two organization members to attack.
As Mutators, they were naturally not merciful people. Once they decided on something, they would not have the thought of turning back.
"Okay."
"Shave her to death."
The three Mutators attacked in an instant.
Quy Thu Nguyet secretly shook her head. She had already given them a chance, but they were no longer people who could be persuaded by words. When persuasion was impossible, the only thing to do was to clean up these dangers for the apocalypse.
The survivor who was being dragged, whose life and death were unknown, was innocent.
To be afraid of death in the apocalypse, only to become a toy for the powerful Mutators, how desperate that was.
Quy Thu Nguyet's hand, where her palm was, was not covered by armor. She was also a Mutator and could change her own structure, thus condensing it into a destructive flesh and blood weapon.
The centipede man roared and charged.
The flesh scythe fell fiercely towards Quy Thu Nguyet. His speed was very fast, and the speed of the swinging flesh scythe was even faster, already forming afterimages. For an ordinary Awakened or Mutator, it would be impossible to block.
It looked fast, but in Quy Thu Nguyet's eyes, that speed was just so-so.
Click!
She grabbed the centipede man's arm, then fiercely swung her hand, which had turned into a blade. With a thud, she cut off the centipede man's arm.
"Ah..."
The centipede man screamed miserably, his face full of disbelief.
He widened his eyes, his gaze fixed on Quy Thu Nguyet's hand, which had changed its structure, "You... you are also a Mutator."
The sudden situation left the other two Mutators a bit dazed.
No one had reacted in time.
Things had just turned out like this.
It was truly beyond their imagination.
In their view, this was simply an incredible thing, even impossible.
Quy Thu Nguyet pulled some distance from them, stared at the three of them, then looked at Chu Loi's situation. With Chu Loi's strength, it was very difficult to withstand the pincer attack of two Mutators.
Fortunately, Pang Vien was sharing the burden with him.
Otherwise, Chu Loi might have been killed.
"We can't go on like this. We have to end the battle quickly."
Quy Thu Nguyet knew things couldn't be dragged on. Instantly, a determined look appeared in her eyes. She began to take the initiative to attack. With her current strength, none of the three Mutators before her were her match.
"Since you have no intention of repenting, then it's over."
As soon as her voice fell.
Quy Thu Nguyet charged at the wailing, armless centipede man. The centipede man's expression changed dramatically. When facing Quy Thu Nguyet, he felt a deep sense of powerlessness, a kind of oppressive feeling that came from her.
Quy Thu Nguyet's eyes grew cold as she swung her arm.
Pfft!
The centipede man wanted to block, but whatever he did was useless.
A large amount of blood flowed from his abdomen. Several shocking wounds made one's whole body shudder.
"Quick, save me!" the centipede man roared.
But his cry was too late. Quy Thu Nguyet's arm blade slashed down from the top of his head, instantly splitting his body in two.
The other two Mutators were covered in cold sweat.
Their faces were pale, without a trace of blood.
They hadn't expected the other to be so terrifying when she got fierce.
The other Mutators entangled with Pang Vien and Chu Loi also saw this scene, and their hearts were also shaken.
In an instant.
"Help!"
"Help!"
The two Mutators fighting Quy Thu Nguyet were completely disheartened, only knowing to shout for help. Through the exchange, they knew how terrifying Quy Thu Nguyet was.
The armor on the other's body was truly too hard.
It was simply not something they could break.
And the other's offensive was too fierce. They basically had no ability to resist and were basically running on the verge of death.
Their situation here attracted the attention of the other four Mutators.
When they saw this situation.
Their faces were also very ugly. Just when they hoped the other two members could hold on for a little longer, in the blink of an eye, they were stunned by the scene before them.
The two Mutator members were actually cut in half by Quy Thu Nguyet. Without the ability to regenerate severed limbs, even if they were cut in half, they still had vitality. But so what? They would eventually die.
"I already gave you a chance."
Quy Thu Nguyet glanced at them, then sped towards Pang Vien and Chu Loi. She had to share some of the pressure with them. Of course, Pang Vien didn't need it. His axe was swung with great vigor, making the two Mutators doubt their existence.
With Quy Thu Nguyet joining in.
Another Mutator was killed, blood splattering all over the ground. Becoming a Mutator was the proudest thing in their lives, but now the identity they were proud of was as fragile as paper in the eyes of others.
"So strong," Chu Loi praised in amazement.
Pang Vien said, "Of course she's strong."
This was no joke. He had a good grasp of how strong Quy Thu Nguyet was. If Quy Thu Nguyet had decided to kill them from the beginning, those three Mutators would have been killed long ago.
The remaining three Mutators' faces were ugly to the extreme.
Among them, the female Mutator who had taunted Quy Thu Nguyet at the beginning was even more unable to believe this situation.
Before, she was full of confidence.
Who would have thought it would be like this?
"Stop! Stop it! Do you know who we are?" one of the Mutators, who was scared to death, screamed.
But they seemed to have thought of something, and their mood relaxed. That's right, we have a background, a backer. We are not alone.
Quy Thu Nguyet said, "Who are you?"
She knew that she would soon be able to learn some secrets, especially who was behind these Mutators.
"Do you know the twelve perfect Mutators?" The speaking Mutator raised his head. When he mentioned this, his panicked and uneasy mood dissipated by more than half. It must be that in his heart, such figures were the most powerful, and everyone else was trash.
"What if I do?" Quy Thu Nguyet asked.
Pang Vien and Chu Loi listened, knowing that Quy Thu Nguyet was probing for information.
"Our boss is one of the twelve perfect Mutators, the butcher Trinh Thien Hao. If you kill us and let our boss know, you will definitely have no chance of survival."
"The butcher Trinh Thien Hao. You mean you want us to let you go?"
"That's right. Let us go, and we can pretend this never happened."
"It's not impossible to let you go, but you have to let your boss come."
Mutators: ...
They felt the other was doing it on purpose. Damn it, how could the boss come to pick them up? If the boss knew they had come into contact with people from the Sunshine Shelter, he would definitely let them fend for themselves.
The remaining three Mutators exchanged a glance.
"Trieu Tinh, whether we can live or not depends on you. Let your genes completely mutate. If we don't do this, we will definitely die here," one of the Mutators said.
"Huh?" Trieu Tinh stared at the other, "Completely mutate my genes? I'll become a monster, and I can never go back."
"If we die, then there's really nothing left."
"Why don't you guys mutate your genes?"
"Our strength is weaker than yours. Even if we mutate, what can we do? You are the strongest. Only you have the most hope. Besides, look at how terrible this apocalypse is. Didn't you always say you wanted to feel how terrifying it is after mutation?"
If ordinary people were having this exchange, they would definitely start arguing. You don't change, but you want me to? Are you even human?
But they were not ordinary people. Their way of thinking had already undergone a huge change. Perhaps for ordinary people, it was an unacceptable thing, but in their view, it was obviously possible.
"Okay..."
Trieu Tinh had long been filled with hatred for everyone in this world. Instantly, her face gradually became ferocious. Green veins crawled up her face, intertwining in a dense mess, as if countless insects were crawling.
The other two Mutators saw this situation and their moods were very good.
Trieu Tinh was starting to mutate.
And during this period, they just had to wait for Trieu Tinh's mutation to complete. When she completely turned into a monster, then their chance to escape would come.
Quy Thu Nguyet frowned. The situation with the female Mutator was a bit wrong.
A very violent aura erupted from her body, as if a fierce beast was awakening.
"Be careful, there's a problem," Quy Thu Nguyet reminded them.
Just as she was reminding them, Trieu Tinh's body changed. Her flesh and blood were writhing and expanding. Even from her body, spider web-like white threads appeared, connecting her to the ground.
Pang Vien and Chu Loi were both stunned by the situation before them.
"Hahaha... you're all finished! She's already mutating! As soon as the mutation is complete, that will be your death!"
"That's right! Do you think you can really kill us? Let me tell you, that's impossible!"
The two Mutators stared at them fiercely. They didn't know if there was a problem with Trieu Tinh's mutation. In any case, they had never seen it before. No Mutator would just think of mutating for no reason.
Unless their personality was extremely extreme.
Like the current Trieu Tinh.
Or they were forced to a dead end, knowing that if they didn't resist, there would be no hope, and they could only give it their all.
In an instant.
With a crack.
Trieu Tinh's mutation ended. The flesh and blood covering her body instantly solidified, cracking like a spider web, and fell off layer by layer. This situation made everyone's eyes become solemn.
The two Mutators were even more shocked beyond words, their mouths agape, staring in disbelief.
They had thought Trieu Tinh would turn into a monster, but the Trieu Tinh who appeared before them had surpassed their imagination. Her body was slender, her surface was reddish, and both her hands had a layer of skin connecting them to the sides of her waist, looking like wings.
"Trieu Tinh, what are you..."
Pfft!
As soon as the two Mutators opened their mouths, they saw the originally motionless Trieu Tinh extend her hand at high speed and grab their heads. Their heads, like watermelons, directly exploded.
"This situation..."
Quy Thu Nguyet felt it was incredibly strange. How could the Mutator before her be so powerful after mutation?
If Thoi Tieu Phi or the research staff of the Mutator organization saw this, they would definitely exclaim, "Perfect evolution after mutation again!" It was clearly a genetic mutation that would turn a Mutator into a monster.
But the human body is a very mysterious existence. Sometimes, amazing changes can occur.
It looked like a failed path.
But the final result was a success.
And in the distance, a motorcycle covered in yellow sand, noticing the movement here, stopped with one foot on the ground, observing from afar.
"What is that thing?"
Chung Hong frowned. It definitely didn't look like a zombie. If she had to say it was some kind of existence, it might be related to a Mutator.
When seeing these things in the apocalypse, Chung Hong usually wouldn't meddle in other people's business. Anything could be dangerous. But suddenly, she saw two figures among them wearing armor.
This looked very familiar.
The armor from the "Zombie Illustrated Guide."
She was now cooperating with Lam Pham. If she didn't know anything else, how could she not know about the armor?
"Oh, my goodness, this is someone related to Lam Pham encountering a terrifying creature, huh, hmm..." Chung Hong rubbed her chin in thought, "I should just call you guys. As for me, it's not convenient to show myself. If the Mutator organization finds out, I won't be able to cooperate with Lam Pham anymore."
She took out her satellite phone, dialed a number. Before, she definitely wouldn't have bothered, but now... she couldn't just stand by and watch.
Soon, the call was made. She told Lam Pham the location very clearly.
Just as she hung up, Chung Hong's eyes widened involuntarily, shocked by the scene before her.
"How could it be..."
She saw that the unknown creature had actually sent the guy with the giant axe flying with a single blow. This kind of strength was completely beyond her expectations.
She knew that the man with the giant axe was an Awakened.
His stage was not high, but definitely not low.
Even if the other was no match for the unknown creature, it was impossible to be sent flying with a single blow.
"The unknown creature's strength is a bit strong. Can they hold on?"
Chung Hong had doubts about their strength.
If they couldn't hold on, then she could only step in to help. She couldn't let Lam Pham arrive here to see three corpses.
Then what would be the point of their cooperation?
She decided to continue observing. If they really couldn't hold on, she would step in. In a short moment, Chung Hong discovered that the other person wearing armor was very strong, actually fighting the unknown creature to a standstill, with both sides exchanging blows.
"She is also a Mutator?"
Chung Hong discovered that Quy Thu Nguyet's arms would automatically change shape, from blades to claws and so on. These were things only Mutators could do.
"Does Lam Pham also cooperate with other Mutators?"
Chung Hong thought about it, then saw that Quy Thu Nguyet could hold on, so she just quietly observed. If the situation turned bad, she would step in.
If there was no danger, she felt it was better to just watch.
...
"It's Professor Quy and her group..."
Lam Pham increased his speed and headed into the distance. When he first received Chung Hong's call, he didn't guess who it was. As long as they were wearing armor, they were definitely from the Hoang City Sunshine Shelter, and also people he knew.
So he directly asked for the address, afraid that he would be late.
And something unexpected would happen.
On the way, he was analyzing. Wearing armor, with a giant axe, three people. He could probably guess who they were. It couldn't be anyone else.
He was now starting to expand his focus outwards.
A large area centered on Hoang City was very safe.
The zombies in too many cities had been cleaned up by him.
At this rate, a completely large-scale safe area would appear in his hands.
The zombie emperor Vuong Tu Hien had also reported the situation to him.
The frequency of Creator appearances was very low, or rather, very few. Many had already hidden themselves, probably scared to death, and were not as arrogant as before.
The one who could make the Creators afraid was, of course, Lam Pham.
Lam Pham was very pleased with this situation. At least it showed that his efforts were bearing fruit.
Now the only thing he wanted to know was where the Mutator organization was.
While he was thinking about these things.
He had already arrived at the scene. From a distance, he saw the unknown creature fighting with Quy Thu Nguyet and her group.
Quy Thu Nguyet, who was holding on, was already feeling a kind of pressure. Just now, she had let Chu Loi call Lam Pham. This unknown creature had surpassed her imagination. But at this moment, a roaring sound came from the sky.
Hearing this sound, Quy Thu Nguyet let out a sigh of relief.
She knew whose arrival this was.
Bang!
Lam Pham landed.
"I'm here."
Trieu Tinh heard the sound, felt the aura emanating from Lam Pham, became alert, and instantly pulled some distance, staring at Lam Pham.
A relaxed smile appeared on Quy Thu Nguyet's face. Then she looked at Chu Loi and found that he was in the posture of just making a call. Her heart was suddenly very puzzled.
"We haven't made the call yet. How did you know we were here?" Quy Thu Nguyet asked.
Lam Pham said, "Someone told me, but that's not important. What's the situation with it?"
The unknown creature before him still looked like a person, but not entirely a person. Its body structure had changed greatly.
Quy Thu Nguyet told Lam Pham everything that had just happened.
Lam Pham was very shocked. The other party was previously a Mutator, caused by a genetic mutation. He had seen the situation of people who had undergone genetic mutations. They were bloated and no different from monsters.
But the one before him seemed to have no relation to mutation. It should even be said that this was the other's evolution.
He raised his camera to take a picture.
Trieu Tinh was frightened by Lam Pham's action and took a step back, thinking that the human who gave her a sense of danger was about to attack.
Pang Vien, who was rubbing his chest through his armor, saw this retreat and couldn't help but roll his eyes. My goodness, she really is a bully to the weak and afraid of the strong. She knows I'm soft, so she bullies me.
She knows Lam Pham is tough enough, so she acts so scared.
At the same time, it also showed that Lam Pham was a truly trustworthy existence. With Lam Pham around, there were no problems. Any danger was not an issue.
Crack!
Crack!
After taking the pictures, he was very satisfied with the film.
Trieu Tinh turned and ran, with no intention of fighting Lam Pham. Even though they had never fought, for Trieu Tinh, to attack was to die.
"She's running!"
Chu Loi reminded them.
Pang Vien and Quy Thu Nguyet were not panicked at all.
No one could escape from Lam Pham's hands, unless Lam Pham thought the other was not important.
Lam Pham looked at Trieu Tinh's fleeing back and didn't even draw Frostmourne. Instead, he slowly raised his hand, his five fingers closing together. He swung fiercely forward, then lowered his hand.
Chu Loi blinked, a little dazed, wanting to know what this was for.
Even Chung Hong in the distance was the same, "What is he doing waving his hand like that?"
Anyone could do that kind of movement.
It didn't even feel like there was anything different.
But the following situation completely shocked them so much that their eyes nearly fell out.
They saw Trieu Tinh's head, while she was running, directly thrown into the air. Due to inertia, her feet took a few more steps, and she collapsed to the ground with a thud. Fresh blood spurted out. The head that rolled on the ground lay there quietly, its eyes filled with shock, confusion, and doubt. As consciousness dissipated, it gradually became lifeless.
"Holy crap..."
Chung Hong's whole body trembled.
She really didn't expect it to be so terrifying. She had clearly run so far, but thinking back to his performance in the zombie tide, the shock slowly dissipated.
This seemed to be a basic skill.
But seeing it again, the feeling was still so shocking.
The main reason she cooperated with Lam Pham was to survive, to live well. The path was her own choice, and she had definitely chosen the right one.
Thoi Tieu Phi would not have chosen it. Surpassing him was impossible. In this lifetime, it would be impossible for Thoi Tieu Phi to surpass Lam Pham.
The gap between them was like an ant wanting to become a human, while Lam Pham was already a human.
This was the gap.
At this moment.
Lam Pham had already noticed Chung Hong in the distance. The other had been watching from there all this time.
As for why she didn't come out.
He could understand. The other was a member of the Mutator organization. If she was seen by someone from the Mutator organization, it wouldn't be a good thing for Chung Hong.
Chung Hong knew that Lam Pham knew where she was. Seeing that the matter was over, she naturally left quietly.
The matter was in their hearts, they both understood.
Quy Thu Nguyet said, "They said before that they were under one of the twelve perfect Mutators of the Mutator organization, the butcher Trinh Thien Hao."
"Yes, I know about the so-called twelve perfect Mutators, but there are no longer twelve. A few have died," Lam Pham said.
Instantly.
Quy Thu Nguyet thought of the person who had been dragged, and hurriedly led Lam Pham to the back of the vehicle.
When Lam Pham saw this survivor, he was also shocked. He hurriedly checked. The heart was still beating faintly, but the situation was very serious. They could die at any time.
He had thought of bringing the other back.
But at that speed of travel, it was feared that the other would not even have a last breath left.
"You guys watch her. I'll be back."
Lam Pham hurriedly left.
Even though Lam Pham's figure was no longer visible, Chu Loi was still looking at the sky in the distance. He had seen Lam Pham's miraculous and terrifying strength again. It was really so strong that it made him feel fear. In his eyes, this was a god-like figure.
No one could fight against him.
A few minutes later.
Lam Pham returned, and also brought a child with him.
Chu Loi was very puzzled, not knowing why he had to bring a child. But he knew it must be useful.
"Rabbit Rabbit, it's up to you."
Lam Pham gently stroked Rabbit Rabbit's head.
"Yes, I will definitely do my best."
Rabbit Rabbit nodded obediently.
