CHAPTER 980: CHAPTER 230: WHAT THE HEART DESIRES WILL ECHO

Lin Fan sighed, zombies were just like that.

What could he do?

He gripped the Frostmourne, looking ahead. Although the trees blocked his view, he could still see the slope extending upward.

He could vaguely see the silhouettes of zombies racing towards him.

As dense as locusts.

Swish!

He swung his sword fiercely, causing the space to tremble. It seemed like an ordinary strike, but the power unleashed was unimaginable.

Sword Radiance appeared, sweeping across the area.

The trees were cut down.

The zombies racing towards him were cut in half at the waist.

His view was no longer obstructed; endless mountain peaks appeared in the distance.

The zombies’ blood flowed downward.

Lin Fan leaped forward, crossing the area, and landed steadily. In front of him was a cavern, from which an evil aura emanated.

"I’m coming in."

He said it in advance, just out of habit.

At this moment, the Corpse God hiding in the cavern was very panicked. It had just witnessed the most terrifying scene. Among the zombies it commanded, there was no shortage of those evolved to high levels.

But the result was exceptionally terrifying.

They didn’t even get to meet their opponent.

"How could there be such a human, and how did he find me? Damn it..." The Corpse God was extremely flustered. It thought about running away, but how could it escape now?

Its form had developed to the point where it was integrated with the mountain, and its evolution was at an extreme level. If it broke through the mountain, Lin Fan would spot it immediately.

What to do?

What should it do?

The Corpse God’s intelligence was not low; was it really unaware of the danger now?

If it were any human, just seeing it would cause immediate panic.

Now.

As Lin Fan walked in the cavern, he wasn’t thinking about being cautious or what kind of Creator he might face later. He was observing the surroundings.

In the past, he had worked just to live, without money to travel.

At most, he would enviously look at his boss Jiang Zhongming’s social media posts about various landscapes and cuisines, which made him very envious.

He would leave comments on his boss’s posts.

’Your life, my dream.’

The boss would also encourage him.

Work hard, and everything you deserve will come; envy isn’t a mindset for young people.

He touched the smooth walls, feeling some moisture, cool to the touch.

A gentle breeze blew in.

The smell wasn’t very pleasant.

There was a mix of a fishy stench, probably the Creator’s smell.

Walking further, he encountered no danger, not even an obstruction.

"Wow, how beautiful."

The inside of the cavern was truly a world of its own, with mountains inside the cave and caves in the mountains, naturally formed, masterfully crafted, like stepping into the legendary Dragon Palace, winding and enigmatic.

"It’s truly a beautiful sight. Wouldn’t it be great to visit often?"

Lin Fan stood and admired the natural scenery.

Meanwhile, the Corpse God’s tentacles kept observing Lin Fan. It didn’t launch an attack, just silently watched. Who would have thought this human, instead of alertly charging in, would be admiring the scenery.

The Corpse God felt it truly had no standing here.

No matter what, as the Corpse God, it had abilities unimaginable to other zombies, existing as a source of fear for countless humans. Yet now, the situation was something it couldn’t quite accept.

Fine, the Corpse God silently waited here.

It had already thought of a strategy.

At this point, Lin Fan felt he’d been inside too long. To prevent Professor Ji and others from worrying, he quickened his pace deeper inside, finding it strange that along the way, he hadn’t faced an ambush from the Creator.

He didn’t quite expect that.

Soon he reached the deepest part, where at first glance he saw the flesh-and-blood Creator as enormous as a mountain, and many tunnels lined the surrounding walls. The opponent’s tentacles extended through these passages to unknown destinations.

"Hello, Lin Fan from the Sunshine Shelter in Huang City," the Corpse God took the initiative to speak.

"Hello, you know me?"

Lin Fan smiled, also not in a hurry to attack. Unexpectedly, a zombie evolved into a Creator could still communicate.

He was observing the Corpse God.

The Corpse God was also observing Lin Fan.

Lin Fan: Such an evil aura, has consumed many people.

Corpse God: Such a strong sense of oppression, this is the strongest human who can freely hunt zombies.

"I know you. A strong one among humans, we’ve met many times though you never saw me," the Corpse God said slowly.

Lin Fan blurted out, "You’re the Corpse God?"

Corpse God: ???

The featureless Corpse God was shocked. If it could express emotions, it would surely look bewildered.

It could firmly guarantee Lin Fan had never seen it before.

"How do you know me?" the Corpse God asked in shock.

Lin Fan said, "Throughout the apocalypse until now, the zombies who’ve escaped my grasp are few. The only zombie repeatedly threatening survivors is the Corpse God, who controls other zombies or survivors."

"You said you’ve seen me many times, yet I’ve never seen you. Then it can only be the Corpse God. To think you’d end up here when I’ve had someone helping track your whereabouts all along."

"Indeed, when one has something on their mind, there will be echoes. We’ve met here."

"This time, you shouldn’t be able to escape."

Swish!

Lin Fan gently waved the Frostmourne, ready to strike at any time.

Corpse God: ...?
