Apocalypse King System

Wang Meng spared no effort and even sacrificed his most trusted subordinates, all just to escape from this terrifying botanical garden. However, he never expected to meet his demise in such a manner.

The green vines, having devoured the gray-white giant vine, seemed to quiet down momentarily. Only the continuously surging green ocean remained.

Watching the gruesome death of Wang Meng, Han Yan's face turned pale. While she felt a sense of vengeance fulfilled, she also experienced a deep fear towards the woman and the zombie-like creature.

Simultaneously, on the western side of the botanical garden, hordes of roaring zombies swarmed in.

Seeing this, Han Yan wished she could run away immediately. The reason she risked returning to the botanical garden was to avoid this zombie tide.

Not to mention the gigantic golden eagle that seemed even larger than the previous giant gray-white vine, just the extremely beautiful woman made Han Yan feel an overwhelming sense of fear.

At the same time, on the west side of the botanical garden, groups of roaring zombies were directly rushing over.

Seeing this, Han Yan wished she could run away immediately. The reason she risked returning to the botanical garden was to avoid this zombie tide.

The woman in front of her was strange, with extraordinary strength. However, Han Yan dared not bet on whether she could stop these zombies.

"Uh, can we avoid them first? The zombies are about to arrive, and if we don't leave now, it'll be too late."

Han Yan shivered, struggling to speak.

The scene of thousands of zombies running wildly was deafening, but the woman in front of her acted as if nothing was happening.

"Zombies?"

Liu Wanting chuckled lightly, extended her jade-like hand, and then made a virtual grip.

Suddenly, the thousands of zombies running stopped abruptly.

Bang, bang, bang...

Like the sound of watermelons exploding, all the zombies' heads burst open. Shattered flesh and black blood flowed together, forming a scene reminiscent of a bloody slaughterhouse.

"Ugh..."

Han Yan dry-heaved, looking at the terrifying zombie tide in front of her, all killed by this woman with a gentle squeeze, as if they were ants.

At the same time, the shock and fear in her heart reached an extreme, as if she had witnessed a deity. Thousands of zombies formed a river of blood, and the horrifying scene made Han Yan, who had seen her share of bloodshed in the apocalypse, feel somewhat uneasy.

Han Yan had encountered those who ingested zombie crystals, gained special abilities, and evolved into beings similar to little superheroes. There were many such evolvers in the Tianhe City base, but even if they evolved, they still remained within the realm of humanity.

However, witnessing the woman before her, Han Yan was simply unable to comprehend the fear and awe she felt. Facing a zombie tide that threatened the entire base, the woman effortlessly wiped them out with a gentle wave of her hand, a method beyond imagination.

"You... you..."

Han Yan stared in disbelief, finding it inconceivable to address the woman before her. Meanwhile, Wen was already stunned, kneeling on the ground, continuously bowing to Liu Wanting as if worshiping.

Liu Wanting had seen such scenes countless times. Every time she demonstrated her abilities, survivors would be shocked and worshipful. Even the Order warriors who had joined for a considerable time couldn't help but feel that her actions were divine when witnessing these miraculous and terrifying scenes.

Liu Wanting withdrew her gaze. Handling a small-scale zombie outbreak like this was effortless for her. Even Order female warriors without abilities, armed with weapons, could easily eliminate them with a small team.

At this moment, the green vines seemed to have completely devoured the previous gray-white vine, and then everything fell completely silent. Liu Wanting observed this scene with interest. After devouring the gray-white vine, the green ocean seemed to emanate a different aura, and its vitality appeared even more robust, as if it had completed a certain kind of evolution.

Liu Wanting was witnessing for the first time a mutated plant capable of devouring others of its kind, let alone possessing such peculiar evolutionary abilities.

"Tell me, what is so special about this botanical garden that attracted you all here?" Liu Wanting turned to look at Han Yan. She had just learned about this woman from Wang Meng.

Without reliable information, Liu Wanting couldn't believe that Han Yan would come to the Tianhe City botanical garden. After all, it was not close to the city center, lacked essential supplies, and entering a location with such a massive plant ocean was risky, even for scavenging.

In the apocalypse, staying away from mysterious places was a fundamental survival rule.

Han Yan broke into a cold sweat, hesitating about how to speak. Despite the seemingly smiling inquiry from the woman before her, if she said something displeasing, she might end up like Wang Meng, dead as easily as an ant.

"I, I accidentally entered a secret military laboratory during one of my explorations outside. I obtained some information that hadn't been destroyed in time," Han Yan stammered.

"The information mentioned that before the apocalypse, there was a secret experiment in the Tianhe City botanical garden related to the zombie virus. The specifics are unclear to me," she continued.

"The reason for the outbreak of the zombie virus, are you saying that before the apocalypse, there was already a zombie virus?" Liu Wanting's pupils contracted. She hadn't expected to find such crucial information in this small corner of Tianhe City.

Survivors had made countless speculations about the reasons for the apocalypse and the origin of the zombie virus. Some said it was a mutated virus created by humans, others claimed it came from extraterrestrial civilizations, and there were even theories about an evil organization plotting global destruction. Han Yan had initially believed that the zombie virus was some extraterrestrial substance, and humanity had suffered sudden infection, leading to the global apocalypse.

However, it turns out that before the apocalypse, there were people who already knew about the zombie virus and were conducting some form of research. This implies that the global viral outbreak might have been a conspiracy or an accident.

Liu Wanting's expression darkened, she clenched her fists, filled with anger. If it was indeed a conspiracy, she would make those responsible pay.

"Where is it? Take me there," Liu Wanting said calmly, but her eyes harbored a deadly intent.

Han Yan shivered, glancing nervously at the silently looming plant ocean behind her, resembling dead matter. She gritted her teeth and walked ahead.

As for Wen, biting her lips, she hesitantly followed behind.

Little Gold fluttered its wings twice, and then its body swayed, rapidly shrinking from its original size, resembling a small, adorable golden figure about half a meter long. It landed on Liu Wanting's shoulder.

Han Yan led the way, Liu Wanting followed, and they searched various parts of the botanical garden. However, after traversing the entire area, they found no trace of any laboratory or research equipment.

"How is this possible? Although the information was incomplete, it should be correct. It was supposed to be an outbreak during the apocalypse, and the laboratory was attacked. Some data couldn't be destroyed in time, so that's how I saw it," Han Yan's face turned pale, and she looked at Liu Wanting anxiously.

"No need to search; I already know where it is." Liu Wanting stared at the ground, then signaled Han Yan to step back. With a forceful stomp of her right foot:

Boom!

After a rumbling quake, a large hole, several meters deep, appeared in the ground. While Han Yan marveled at this display of power, she also noticed that beneath the hole created by Liu Wanting's stomp, there seemed to be an underground structure.

Once the dust settled, Han Yan cautiously approached the hole. Bathed in partial sunlight, she could see the underground base beneath the opening – white walls, various peculiar instruments scattered around, and now partially covered by fallen dust.

With a graceful leap, Liu Wanting descended directly into the underground base. Surveying her surroundings, it seemed that this underground facility was indeed some kind of laboratory, just as Han Yan had described.

At the same time, Liu Wanting harbored some questions in her mind. Why would this laboratory be built beneath a botanical garden? Moreover, she wasn't entirely convinced that it was a secret military facility.
