At this moment.

Amidst a vast array of horrified glances.

The two gruesome monster corpses began moving their hands and feet slowly.

One of the corpses, whose head had been twisted off—the so-called "Punisher"—actually picked up its head and placed it back on its neck.

A group of officers watched this scene with increasingly eerie expressions.

In the minds of many officers, their perception of Mr. Spirit Crows had subtly shifted.

Que San suddenly asked, "Have you all heard of the undead?"

The officers responded differently.

The older officers mostly shook their heads.

The younger officers all nodded simultaneously.

Que San said, "In the boundless Primordial World, there exist many undead races, as well as many races skilled in controlling corpses. The Canglan Civilization will inevitably encounter them in the future."

The faces of many officers twitched several times.

Regarding corpses and similar things, normal people have some degree of fear.

Commander Wu still brusquely said, "I hope to have the opportunity to take on the undead one day; I wonder if they are strong fighters."

Que San replied, "On the mountains and plains of the Primordial World, roam a species called 'Giant Corpse Demon.'"

"They constantly collect corpses to build their bodies and usually measure around one hundred meters in size."

Commander Wu's old face twitched as well.

Forget it!

Pretend I didn't say anything!

Commander Zhang, however, with a scholarly spirit, asked, "How can a dead life form transform into a new life?"

Que San succinctly said, "The master says that the instinct of death represents a form of energy."

Commander Zhang seemed to gain some understanding.

At this point.

The two monster corpses began to change.

Their black scales fell off one by one, and the large tumors on their shoulders shrank.

"Ah~"

A howl of extreme pain emanated from the mouths of the monsters.

Many officers couldn't bear to listen and averted their eyes to avoid looking at the monsters.

Even a tough guy like Commander Wu had his eyelids twitching several times.

A few seconds later.

The screams ceased.

The monsters disappeared from sight.

In their place were two corpses with completely purple-black skin.

But it was discernible that they were genuine humans.

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

The two corpses fell over again.

It was roughly identifiable that the deceased were young adults in their twenties.

And transforming from monsters into humans is an extraordinary thing.

Commander Wu glanced and was greatly surprised: "Can Mr. Spirit Crows transform monsters back into humans?"

Que San nodded its bird head: "Yes."

It added, "However, this secret technique can only transform dead monsters into humans.

"For living monsters, the secret technique cannot fully work, but it can greatly weaken their combat power."

Commander Wu was very impressed: "That's already very powerful!"

Previously, his heart was full of worries about Punishers and their kind, but now he was completely relieved.

In any case, with Mr. Spirit Crows in Great Xia, there's nothing to fear!

Commander Zhang, observing the purple-black skin on the corpses, curiously asked, "Why is their skin this color? Were they soaked in some potion?"

Que San shook its bird head, "No, they were forcibly injected with a massive dose of some drug while they were alive.

"The miserable screams just now were the sounds emitted when the test subjects were injected with the drug."

Commander Zhang's old face twitched heavily.

Commander Wu blurted out "Shit!" and said, "Isn't this live experimentation? The Carmenians are all crazy!"

A low hum arose among the crowd.

"How tragic!"

"Truly cruel!"

Que San said, "That's why the master says the Carmenia Federation has taken an evil path."

Commander Wu agreed wholeheartedly: "Indeed, can't they just research superpowers? Why go for such unorthodox, dark things?"

Commander Zhang, however, had a different perspective: "The Carmenia Federation has always tried to surpass us in the supernatural domain. Mr. Ghost put too much pressure on the Carmenians, forcing them to take this evil path."

Commander Wu nodded: "Makes sense!"

Que San aptly ended the discussion: "Everyone, since the demonstration is over, I'll take my leave now!"

As soon as the words fell.

It rapidly blurred and vanished.

Commander Zhang only managed to say one sentence: "Thank you, Mr. Spirit Crows, thank you, Lady Que San!"

Then.

Que San completely disappeared.

Commander Wu sensed for a moment and whispered, "The presence is gone!"

Commander Zhang asked a question: "Old Wu, who do you think is more powerful, Mr. Spirit Crows or Mr. Ghost?"

Commander Wu smacked his lips, "I used to think Mr. Ghost was stronger, but now..."

He paused for a moment and said, "It's hard to say now!"

*

On the other side of Canglan Star.

Carmenia Federation.

Yang Fan was walking along a highway, carrying an old backpack and wearing a hat.

He had completely changed his appearance to look like a typical white person.

This was the effect of a superpower.

The name is—Muscle Control.

This is a low grade superpower, generously donated by a certain Carmenia Superpower User.

This power allows for precise control of the body's muscle groups, altering the shape and size of each muscle to achieve a disguise effect.

Through a small trick, the skin color can be changed to appear Caucasian.

Even the locals couldn't tell this was a foreigner.

"The power of the Life Decree is even stronger than I imagined!"

Yang Fan watched Que San's verification from a distance and whispered softly.

Back when the Poisonous Mosquito disaster broke out, he unexpectedly grasped a trace of peculiar power with the help of the second Star Mark.

It's the so-called "Life Decree."

As the name suggests, it is a law related to life, a highly advanced type of power.

Of course.

Given Yang Fan's current strength, it's impossible for him to comprehend the full Life Decree.

What he grasped is only an extremely slight trace, not even a superficial understanding.

But even this tiniest bit holds extraordinary and amazing effects.

Yang Fan saw the Punishers and Enforcers created by the Carmenians, and naturally, he understood some things.

The two monstrous corpses turned back into human forms—this was the technique he derived from them.

Five minutes later.

Yang Fan suddenly heard a different sound.

He glanced back and immediately saw a pickup truck coming his way from afar.

He stopped walking and stood by the roadside, waiting quietly.

Before long.

The pickup truck approached.

Yang Fan waved his right hand vigorously.

However.

Not only did the pickup truck not stop, but it also sped up, rushing past with a "whoosh."

Yang Fan blinked, only able to see the truck's taillights.

He quietly complained, "Didn't someone say that Carmenians are very friendly, and if you encounter difficulties, many enthusiastic people will offer help?

"I just wanted to hitch a ride, that's all. If you don't want to pick me up, that's fine, but there's no need to accelerate past me, is there?"

Yang Fan sighed lightly and continued walking along the highway.

The route he was taking was an old interstate highway leading to another state in the Carmenia Federation.

Since the highway had been around for some years, the road condition wasn't very good, so there weren't many vehicles usually.

Moreover, now it was already evening, with the sky getting dark, so naturally, there were even fewer cars passing by.

Yang Fan walked alone in the wilderness, suddenly feeling a sense of "independent existence."

The purpose of his trip was to fulfill a promise.

Earlier, he had sent Miles into the Azure Palace, creating a world-shocking tragedy.

As a condition of exchange, Yang Fan had promised Miles to treat his daughter's cancer.

As the first warrior of Canglan Star, he certainly wouldn't go back on his word.

"Whoosh~"

The night wind blowing through the wilderness began to carry a significant chill.

At noon, the temperature was over twenty degrees, but now it had already dropped to around five degrees.

Yang Fan murmured, "It seems the climate of the Western Hemisphere is quite similar to Great Xia, with drastic changes between day and night."

After a while.

He again heard the sound of a vehicle approaching.

There were also car lights shining from behind.

Yang Fan gave it a glance, feeling a stir in his heart: "There might be a chance this time!"

His intuition told him that the people in this car seemed to be genuinely good-hearted.

And in this disaster-ridden world, such kind people were becoming rare.

Soon.

A pickup truck loaded with luggage, newer than the previous one, drove up to about a hundred meters away.

Yang Fan immediately waved a dirty red flag.

This was a flag he had just picked up from the roadside.

The pickup started to slow down, then stopped in front of him.

The car housed a family of four.

The driver was a Big Beard, the passenger seat had his wife, who appeared quite plump.

In the backseat sat their two kids.

The boy looked about ten years old, wearing a baseball cap, while the girl was a bit older, with a gracefully young figure forming.

Yang Fan put down the small red flag, smiled, and said, "Hi, can I have a lift?"

Big Beard was quite cautious and didn't agree immediately.

This guy rolled down the window a little, scrutinized Yang Fan a few times, and asked, "Buddy, why are you out here alone?"

Yang Fan sighed, "I know it's very dangerous, but I really have no choice."

He began to weave a tale effortlessly, "You must know that many monsters have appeared in Yokoni City, with at least tens of thousands of deaths.

"I felt that Yokoni City was extremely unsafe, so I decided to drive back home, but unfortunately, my old buddy was too old and broke down on the way."

He pointed backward, "There's a broken-down vehicle ten kilometers back, license plate JXK0856, maybe you noticed it."

Of course, the broken-down vehicle wasn't his.

He just passed by, took a glance, and with his extraordinary memory, accurately remembered the license number.

Big Beard said nothing.

The boy in the back seat called out, "Dad, I saw that car he mentioned earlier, the license plate indeed had the letters JXK."

Big Beard thought for a moment, then said, "Alright, buddy, get in."

Yang Fan showed a grateful smile, "Sir, you and your family are good people."

Big Beard shrugged, "Recently, people often go missing in the wild. It's really dangerous for you to be out here alone."

Yang Fan's heart skipped a beat.

People often go missing?

He had a feeling that there was more to this matter than it seemed.

The boy opened the car door voluntarily, "Hey, don't space out. Get in quickly."
