(Lirean Province- Capitol City)
(Outer Region- Valentina's National Mall)
Blood slowly dripped down from Eve's claws and fell to the ground where it joined the red pools of crimson liquid that stained the corpses.
A massacre had occurred.
Not a single one of the men were still alive. Chunks of flesh and body parts lay scattered haphazardly across the ground.
Eve's brutality and her callous indifference to the men's screams as they begged and pleaded for mercy sent shivers down the two women's spines.
They looked at Eve with fear in their eyes and slowly began to back away.
pαndα noνɐ1,сoМ "Please… please… let us live…" one of the women stammered fearfully as tears streamed down her face.
Eve had killed their tormentors and yet the expressions on their faces were not that of gratitude but rather complete and utter terror.
The zombie empress stared silently at the trembling humans who refused to meet her gaze and let out a heavy sigh.
She walked past them and headed for the clothes shop that was just around the corner. Eve's ears twitched and she heard footsteps running in the opposite direction.
The two women took the opportunity to immediately flee without even sparing a backwards glance at their inhuman saviour.
Eve could feel her already bad mood get even lower as she stared at her reflection in a broken glass shard.
A tall skeleton-like monster with a sunken face and eyes that seemed to be too small for their sockets looked back at her.
The black claws on her hands and the pitch-black colour of her eyes made Eve feel nothing but disgust as she gazed at herself.
Monster… she was just a monster…
The zombie empress took in a deep breath and soon her claws retracted, and her cheeks began to fill out.
It only took a few minutes before her appearance reverted back to a beautiful human woman who would make both men and women fall in love with her.
But at the end of the day… it was just a disguise…
Eve could not help but recall the warm and loving look in Qin Lan's eyes when she kissed her for the first time.
If only she could go back to that time…
The zombie empress had never felt so defeated as she did in the current moment.
What was the use of having this much power and strength if the person she loved was forever out of her grasp?
Wait… speaking of Qin Lan…
Eve's fingers trembled as a horrific possibility entered her mind. Subject 001 was hunting her down and had somehow brought Qin Wei back to life.
Qin Wei was Qin Lan's brother and knew about her romantic connection to his sister.
What if he told Subject 001 and that monster went after Qin Lan?
Eve was frightened and she immediately rushed forward towards the clothing store without taking a second to rest.
She needed to pick up supplies and then immediately head towards Qin Lan's location to warn her about the incoming threat.
It didn't matter if Qin Lan hated her… she would not let any harm come to her favourite human…
Eve closed her eyes and focused as she pictured Qin Lan's face in her mind.
She didn't know if this was one of her special powers, but she could somehow sense where the young woman was even without smelling her scent.
This ability only seemed to work when she tried to locate Qin Lan because Eve had also tried to use it track down Subject 001 without any success.
Eve reopened her eyes as she got a sense that Qin Lan was fair distance away in a northeastern direction.
In order to leave the city, she would have to get pass the military blockage of the bridge but that shouldn't be an issue.
She was prepared to kill anyone or anything that blocked her path…
Eve reopened her eyes and a cold chilling expression flashed across her face. She knew that she was not a good person like Qin Lan.
Qin Lan was willing to help out complete strangers while Eve would rather look on indifferently and let them die.
But still… that was the reason why Eve loved her so much.
Her kindness was a ray of light that entered the darkness inside Eve's heart and made her feel as though this rotten world had something to look forward to.
The zombie empress walked forward until she finally saw a clothing store called 'Ruby Robins Women's Wear'.
The door was wide open, and a few half-eaten bodies of shoppers and clerks could be seen around the store in varying states of decay.
Eve stepped over the bodies and headed for the back of the store where the clothes were in a much better condition.
She hurriedly picked out a few pairs of black track pants and some jackets that looked roughly her size.
The zombie empress roughly shoved her new clothes into her backpack and then left the store with a determined glint in her eyes.
She was going to rescue her favourite human!

(Outskirts of Heurn Province)
(Hidden Location- Secret Military Complex)
Subject 001 dragged his tired body onto the nearest mattress and then collapsed with an exhausted expression on his face.
Creating portals was incredibly tiring but that was not the only reason why he was so sleepy.
The fusion process that allowed him to take over this new body had not been going as well as he expected.
A trace of Qin Wei's consciousness was still alive, and it was unnaturally fixated on killing his sister and taking Liu Yifei as his own woman.
Subject 001 could not care less about two insignificant humans, but Qin Wei's consciousness was influencing his actions.
Despite his best efforts, Subject 001 now felt a terrifying anger towards the woman who had betrayed him… no… who had betrayed Qin Wei.
This fusion had caused some unintended side effects…
It was sometimes difficult to tell where his memories ended and where Qin Wei's memories began.
"Why aren't you hunting that bitch down! I want her dead! I WANT HER DEAD!" the handsome young teenager on the bed suddenly yelled.
Subject 001 could feel his new body move involuntarily as Qin Wei made his hands slam against the sides of the mattress in frustration.
"Please be patient… everything is proceeding according to plan…" Subject 001 hoarsely spoke as he tried to reason with the trace of consciousness.
"We can eliminate Subject 014 and her little lover at the same time… your sister is a weakness that we can exploit..."
"All we have to do is capture or kill her and Subject 014 will be unable to think rationally… this can be done using our secret weapon…"
Subject 001 stopped talking as his words seemed to reach Qin Wei and his out-of-control body slowly calmed down.
Wu Jing… he was the weapon that they would use to kill Subject 014 and Qin Lan.
Without a doubt he possessed a terrifying ability, and he also held a grudge against the monster who had wiped out his squad and almost killed him.
He was the perfect hidden ace and Subject 001 could not wait for the day when he would be able to reveal his hand.
Subject 014's days were numbered…
