What's wrong with being a little arrogant in the apocalypse just to support my wife?

The domineering lightning was blocked outside, and the lightning-type ability user took two steps back with a pale face, "Impossible, this is impossible."

He had always succeeded in attacking others with lightning in the past, as lightning has extremely strong penetrating power. How could it possibly be blocked by a mere water-based ability?

Xian Wenrui finally managed to pull off a big move, even stroking his hair to look cool, "What's impossible? With your level of skill, you're not even qualified to be my sparring partner."

Take lightning-based superpowers, for example. Xiaobai's lightning is much more domineering and powerful than the superpower of the person in front of him.

After realizing that these people were not weak, Dong Hong felt a ruthless glint in his heart, and he suddenly unleashed his shadow-type supernatural power.

Surrounded by this sudden dark power, her vision was taken away. Jiang Yue felt the air flowing in the wind and leaned back to avoid Dong Hong's vicious move that was aimed straight at her brow.

Seeing that his sneak attack had failed, Dong Hong did not linger and turned to reach for the abdomen of the light-elemental ability user.

But the next second, Dong Hong's pupils contracted, and he hurriedly retreated to the side of the other two.

The black fog had not yet dissipated, but Dong Hong and the others could clearly hear footsteps coming from inside the dark room.

At the same time, an extremely strong pressure spread around them, and the supernatural power that was spreading out in all directions made their hearts skip a beat.

The shadow-type superpowers gradually dissipated, and only then did they see the tall man standing beside them clearly.

When Lu Yize saw Dong Hong, images of being chased by him in his past life flashed through his mind. Upon seeing Dong Hong again, Lu Yize's lips curled into a grin.

The closest creature, Little White, seemed to understand his feelings. It raised its head and roared to the sky. In the blink of an eye, the oppressive black mist gathered with heavy moisture, and lightning ripped through the dim sky.

With a thunderous roar, several streaks of purple lightning fell from the sky toward Dong Hong and his companions.

At this moment, Chen Wei, who was also a lightning-type ability user, turned pale. No one knew better than him how big the difference was between this lightning and his own.

Dong Hong swiftly grabbed the spatial ability user next to him and used his body to shield himself from the lightning.

The other party stared at Dong Hong in disbelief, but before he could react, lightning struck down on his head.

He died with his eyes open, still not understanding what was happening, his face showing astonishment.

At this point, Dong Hong had nothing left to hide, so he directly pierced the other party's abdomen with his hand and dug out the superpower core.

"Brother Dong... how could you..." Chen Wei was completely stunned by what he saw.

Before he could finish speaking, Dong Hong's arm had already pierced through Chen Wei's abdomen and dug into his superpower core.

"If you want to blame someone, blame those who wouldn't let us into the base."

After saying this, Dong Hong didn't even look at the fool who was about to die and still didn't understand the situation. Without hesitation, he pulled out the crystal core.

"It's you...it's you..."

With his last breath, Chen Wei glared resentfully at Dong Hong.

The voice was shrill, the eyes filled with hatred—it was Dong Hong! He killed his brother! It was Dong Hong, who had been killing people and extracting supernatural cores along the way!

May Dong Hong die a horrible death! May he die a horrible death!!

Chen Wei fell to the ground unwillingly, his eyes filled with resentment, dying with his eyes wide open in anger!

But if Dong Hong cared about the deaths of one or two people, he wouldn't be Dong Hong.

"Holy crap! They even killed their own comrades!"

Xian Wenrui couldn't bear to watch anyone kill and extract superpower cores, and instantly felt nauseous.

Dong Hong turned his gaze to Lu Yize, his eyes filled with jealousy and resentment. "What right do you have to talk about me? We're in the apocalypse, why are you pretending to be saints!"

"You're raising a zombie, dare you say she hasn't eaten people? Second-tier zombies are probably hard to raise, I wonder how many human corpses you've fed her!"

Hearing this, Zhang Wenjing couldn't help but laugh out loud. "What a pity. You are indeed worse than a zombie. She has never eaten a person, but according to your logic, you must have killed quite a few people."

"Logically speaking, your talent should be average. You were able to advance to the second tier in a short time. You must have consumed a lot of people's ability cores, right? Well, ability cores are much better than killing zombies for crystal cores."

She paused for a moment after speaking, then looked up and said, "After all, if you do what you just did, kill someone when they're not looking and dig it out, you can get it easily."

"Impossible! How could she be at the second level if she hadn't eaten humans!"

Dong Hong held the superpower core in his hand, which was still covered in sticky blood and warm from the human touch.

He pointed to the fallen light-elemental ability user beside him, "His crystal core has disappeared without a trace. Who else could have taken it but her!"

"You mean this superpower core?"

Lu Yize tossed the cleaned superpower core in his palm upwards as a playful gesture.

Dong Hong saw the superpower core that was originally his, "It really is with you."

Sheng Xue looked at him, her tone unfriendly, "Then how do you know that the power core in your companion's body isn't inside his body?"

Dong Hong looked at Sheng Xue, who was sitting in a wheelchair, and suddenly laughed at her almost naive question.

"This kind of trash is a nuisance if left alive. Let's not waste his life now that he's dead. What's wrong with me wanting to extract his ability core?"

He scrutinized the people in front of him, his gaze finally settling on Lu Yize, who was in the lead. "You've all said so much, but what difference does it make to me?"

Lu Yize looked at the three people lying in the snow: a light-type ability user, a lightning-type ability user, and a space-type ability user. These three were Dong Hong's confidants in his previous life.

They're not good people; in his past life, that light-elemental ability user ruined a lot of girls.

The space-type ability user embezzled most of the food, and the lightning-type ability user, due to his violent nature, caused the deaths of many young people.

These people lived fifteen years into their previous lives and participated in the manhunt together.

The space-type ability user died in the exact same way as the current one; he was used as a scapegoat by Dong Hong to shield himself from the attack and die.

The lightning-type ability users, just like now, had their ability cores extracted by Dong Hong, only to temporarily increase their abilities in exchange for a chance to escape.

The reason Dong Hong was talking so much nonsense was simply to find a suitable opportunity to escape.

Taking advantage of the moment when these people weren't paying attention, he swallowed two superpower cores in one gulp, and his superpowers instantly erupted.

Taking advantage of everyone's inattention, Dong Hong swiftly transformed into a shadow and fled. As he ran, he laughed and looked back, "Fools, just wait, one day I'll make you pay the price!"

He fled at an extremely fast speed, while Lu Yize stood still and calmly spoke to Jiang Yue.

"Do you remember the countdown I taught you yesterday?"

Jiang Yue thought for a moment, then held up three fingers. As she bent each finger down, she uttered the corresponding number.

As the last note faded, Dong Hong, who had been fleeing at high speed not far away, suddenly swelled up.

He desperately wanted to escape, but could only watch helplessly as the blood in his veins continued to expand.

“No, no, no!!”

The snow exploded into tiny specks of mist on the pristine white snow, leaving only a black supernatural core lying on the ground.
