It was like a blade tearing through the air.

Marquis Hei's face froze in shock, sensing that the Nun had already disappeared from in front of him. Immediately after, his body stiffened, feeling a sharp pain emanating from his chest.

So fast······

He looked down to see a slender, fair hand protruding from his chest, holding a hot, throbbing, vigorous heart.

"Hmm hmm hmm, I've heard that a vampire's heart is stronger than a human's, and it's the reason for your longevity······ I wonder if you can survive without a heart."

The Nun spoke with a faint smile, her tone full of laziness, like a quiet morning, just waking up. Then her face turned cold, and she said lightly:

"The original you can't really be considered a vampire, right? Only after becoming Extraordinary did you become a complete bat······ hmm, is this a case of atavism?"

Marquis Hei's face was filled with terror, sensing his life force rapidly draining away. Even with his extremely strong regenerative ability, he couldn't counter this drain.

He was about to die.

A flash of red appeared in Marquis Hei's eyes as he turned and swung a sword at the Nun's face, disregarding the wound in his chest.

At the same time.

The blood on his body began to spread like a creeping reptile up the Nun's arm, as if it had its own life force.

"You damn bitch, do you really think you have me cornered?"

Marquis Hei roared in anger, the fear in his eyes vanished, replaced only by fury and defiance.

The gap in their strength wasn't that huge.

But even a slight difference could mean everything.

A small gap could reveal a chasm as deep as the ocean.

The Nun flicked her wrist, sending Marquis Hei's head flying like a baseball, landing among the crowd, yet the scene was eerily silent, everyone too shocked to move.

She frowned, looking at the unusually viscous blood still spreading on her skin, unaffected by Marquis Hei's death.

This blood seemed to have some sort of life force draining characteristic.

She flicked her wrist, letting the blood splash onto the ground, musing, "Well, he really is a monster."

A vibration came from her phone—it was an announcement.

[The Nun has killed Marquis Hei head-on, inheriting his title and abilities]

It was a simple message.

She hadn't expected the forum to announce such things······ was it because Marquis Hei had a title that there was an announcement?

This announcement caused a stir on the forum, Marquis Hei was dead, and he had been killed. He was a person on the kill ranking.

Anyone on the kill ranking was recognized as a human powerhouse in this region, and those at the top were the elite among elites.

So far, Marquis Hei was the first to die among the top ten.

······

The Security Bureau gathering place was bustling with people.

Lin Xiuyu sat by the roadside, staring at the message in a daze, and said:

"I heard there's been an internal conflict within Chenxi. From what we know, Marquis Hei was the rebel, though it probably wasn't so much a rebellion as a power grab······ now it seems he's been suppressed."

The middle-aged man with a gray leather hat thought for a moment and said:

"This person called the Nun must be the 'Nun', the Apocalypse of Chenxi."

"Apocalypse?"

Lin Xiuyu's eyes flashed with confusion. He didn't understand this organization very well, only knowing, he continued to say:

"They seem to hardly recruit civilians, and their methods are ruthless. It's hard to understand how such a seemingly rebellious organization persists."

Chenxi has existed in the mortal world for a long time and remains fairly low-key, but it is an entirely independent organization spanning multiple countries.

Well, you could say they're only low-key in Xuan Country.

The middle-aged man wore a look of reminiscence, hinting:

"Existence is reason, and······ in short, we should try to avoid conflict with them."

Cai Jing suddenly asked, "Leader, who's stronger, you or this Apocalypse? I feel like you should know them, right?"

The middle-aged man glanced at Cai Jing through his sunglasses and laughed:

"Ha, I should be stronger, but in the post-apocalyptic world, everyone's strength has increased significantly, so it's hard to say······ you only find out by fighting."

Cai Jing paused and then said, "There's one more thing, we just got news that a medium-sized gathering place with around a thousand people seems to have more than five Extraordinary."

"More than five?"

The middle-aged man abruptly stood up, looked at her, and asked solemnly, "Are you sure it's five?"

What does it mean to have five Extraordinary, all the Extraordinary in all the Security Bureau's gathering places don't add up to five.

Lin Xiuyu gasped, saying, "That's too exaggerated."

Then he firmly stated, "They must have mastered an unique method, which gathering place specifically is it?"

Cai Jing showed a strange expression and said, "It seems to be the 'Self-Heating Rice' gathering place, and they reportedly performed a mysterious ritual that resulted in some terrifying phenomena······"

The middle-aged man took a deep breath and smiled, saying, "That's actually a good thing, but if they have truly mastered some method, we must have it······ at all costs."

The Nun?

Su Changxing remembered this person was the first to kill Screamer and earned a title.

So far, titles don't seem to serve much purpose, but each title is unique, non-repetitive.

Zhu Wenwu said mockingly, "These people really have too much time on their hands. Instead of fighting amongst themselves, why not go kill Hunters."

Su Changxing nodded in agreement, saying, "It shouldn't be a simple matter. Under such external pressure, generally speaking, we humans would unite."

The two hadn't walked far before they saw Zhou An sitting alone on an abandoned car, waiting.

Zhou An saw them and ran over, saying in surprise, "Brother Su, you guys really came from the back. We didn't run into you earlier."

Su Changxing glanced around and said, "Hmm, this place is indeed strange. Where are the others?"

Zhou An pointed to a nearby building and said, "They're resting inside. It's easier to maintain a low profile with fewer people, so I'm waiting for you outside."

Su Changxing followed Zhou An towards the building and asked, "You didn't run into any Hunters, did you?"

Zhou An shook his head, saying, "No, at least I didn't see any. Anyway, the number of zombies decreased here, and we moved quickly."

Zhou An's role granted him a certain level of perception ability, but it wasn't as strong as Zhu Wenwu's. Still, it was mostly sufficient for general situations.
