Only at the Mahayana Stage Does the Reversal System Appear - Chapter 112
Chapter 112 Friends
Jiang Li no longer cared whether the Brahma Tower would discover him. If he didn’t act, people would suffer and die every moment.
Furthermore, Jiang Li didn’t believe the Brahma Tower was in District Three.
The Brahma Tower was both an immortal artifact and a Buddhist treasure. If it saw something like this, it would undoubtedly intervene.
“Stop! Who are you?”
Jiang Li cast his spell, and now everyone could see him, no longer just the Ye siblings. The two enhancers guarding the chaebol’s entrance immediately noticed Jiang Li’s presence. They
couldn’t ignore him. Jiang Li’s attire, appearance, and demeanor were too striking, completely out of place in the atmosphere of the apocalypse.
“Ordinary people,” Jiang Li said coldly.
This chaebol’s main business was arms, so the two enhancers at the entrance naturally carried firearms.
These were large-caliber pistols, capable of shattering a person’s body with a single bullet. They immediately pulled the trigger.
With two bangs, the two men remained in a standing, gun-raised position. The bullets were stuck in the muzzles, unable to fire, and their heads exploded like watermelons.
“Boss, the chaebol has Lord Longtu backing them,” Ye Du stuttered, reminding Jiang Li.
Jiang Li remained silent, entering the building.
Ye Wu kicked his clueless brother. “Fool! They’ve already said they’re stronger than a Level 5 Enhancer! Why are you trying to be so smart?”
It was rare for someone to dare challenge a chaebol like this. Remember, more than half of the Level 3 Enhancers are chaebols. Who would dare to cause trouble here?
The commotion downstairs alarmed everyone, but most laughed it off. Someone once, relying on their skill and audacity, came here to rob, only to be quickly subdued by a high-level Enhancer, their eyes gouged out, their arms severed, and thrown into the ruins. The chaebol masters laughed heartily as they watched him flee in panic, pursued by zombies.
Whether the zombies would evolve after eating this person wasn’t a concern for the chaebols.
Jiang Li enveloped the building with his spiritual sense, revealing documents, experiments, and work records. He could discern at a glance those whose crimes were not punishable by death and those whose were unforgivable.
If they were all killed, there would surely be innocent people, but if they were killed one after another, there would surely be some who slipped through the net.
The people upstairs kept smiling for a long time, even before they died.
“Who are you! Who sent you to kill me?” The arms chaebol saw the murderous Jiang Li and was filled with fear. His teeth were chattering. He wondered how many third-level enhancers had died at his hands.
Jiang Li didn’t answer his question, but walked steadily towards the arms chaebol.
The arms chaebol showed a strange smile and pressed a button. White mist sprayed out from above and below Jiang Li’s head.
Boom—
a huge explosion on the top floor of the building.
“This isn’t white mist, but micro-bombs. They will enter your body and cause a chain reaction.” The arms chaebol clicked his tongue twice. “Under this kind of explosion, not even a piece of flesh will be left…”
The arms chaebol’s voice stopped abruptly. He was grabbed by the neck by Jiang Li, and his face flushed red.
Seeing the situation was bad, the fourth-level enhancers lying in ambush on both sides tried to launch a surprise attack on Jiang Li. Jiang Li used a thought, and the two enhancers were beheaded.
“Five, fifth-level…” The arms chaebol stared at Jiang Li in disbelief. There were only five fifth-level masters in the world. Where did this sixth one come from?
No, even a fifth-level
master couldn’t kill two fourth-level masters with a single thought… Before the arms chaebol could finish his thought, Jiang Li strangled him.
Although he had expected this, seeing the once unattainable figure being tossed aside by Jiang Li like a rag bag still felt unreal to Ye Du.
That day, Jiang Li destroyed several chaebols in succession, and finally, he stood under the pharmaceutical chaebol building.
The enhancer that the Ye siblings took was developed by this chaebol, but the siblings had only taken the weakest enhancer.
“H-are these zombies?”
Ye Du was stunned upon arriving at a laboratory in the building. He saw glass jars filled with bizarre zombies. Some resembled bears, but their feet were octopus tentacles. Some had two heads—one human, the other pig—and tortoise shells on their backs. Some were headless, crawling on all fours with mouths covering their limbs. Both
humans and animals could become zombies, and Ye Wu had no idea what kind of creatures these zombies had been in life.
“No, these are humans, and they’re still alive.”
“Humans?!” Not only Ye Du, but even Ye Wu stared at the scene with horror.
And most importantly, the liquid in the glass jar looked familiar, like…
“You’re not mistaken, it’s the booster you’re taking,” Jiang Li said. “The chaebol used humans as filters to remove the zombie virus from the air, obtaining pure spiritual energy. To prevent these people from turning into zombies, they injected them with numerous d*rugs, transforming their bodies from the inside out.”
“But, but I heard boosters are made by diluting the power in the brain core.” Ye Du felt his three perspectives shattered.
Jiang Li used his spiritual sense to see that boosters were also produced using brain cores, but more often, the human body was used as a filter.
“Because it’s cheaper.”
Ye Du couldn’t believe the answer. How could someone do such a thing just for the sake of cheapness?
Jiang Li softly chanted a Buddhist chant, majestic, ancient, and solemn. Ye Wu felt as if the chant contained endless truth and power, threatening to burst her brain.
After all, the Buddhist chant was a compassionate force and would not kill. Ye Wu simply felt dizzy.
As the Buddhist chanting began, the glass jar shattered, and the strange-looking figures were enveloped in a ball of golden light. Ye Wu could vaguely see through the golden light that they were gradually returning to their original appearance.
Although Jiang Li couldn’t resurrect the dead, it was not difficult to change these people back to their original appearance.
Ye Wu followed Jiang Li to the top floor and saw a burly man sitting on a soft sofa.
The fifth-level enhancer, Long Tu.
Ye Wu had thought Long Tu was the chaebol’s backer, but she never imagined that he himself was the largest chaebol!
“Friend, welcome to District 3.” Long Tu laughed heartily and greeted Jiang Li warmly.
Long Tu believed Jiang Li was also a Level 5 Enhancer, making him naturally qualified to be his friend.
His origins were unimportant; he was simply an unknown powerhouse outside the Five Regions, or perhaps a lucky Level 3 Enhancer who had found a Level 5 Brain Core.
“I heard you’re angry about the plutocrats wantonly exploiting the common people. My friend, calm down. Since we’re both Level 5 Enhancers, why get upset over such a trivial matter?”
In Long Tu’s view, Jiang Li might be one of those weak Enhancers who suddenly gained power. While he’d grown stronger, his mentality remained that of a weaker one, leading him to sympathize with the weak.
As a Level 5 Enhancer himself, Long Tu felt the need to act as a guide, to show him what it meant to be strong.
“Are we becoming stronger to kill zombies, restore society to its original state, and follow those strict rules and regulations? Hahaha, of course not. Aren’t we becoming stronger just to enjoy life?”
“Before the apocalypse, I was an underground boxer, hiding from the light. Here, I am the sky, I am the king, who dares to disobey me?”
“Are you strong?”
“What…”
Before Long Tu could react, he was knocked away by a huge force, spitting blood.
“You dog-like thing, dare you talk about friendship with me?”
Jiang Li didn’t care about cultivation level when making friends. After all, no one was stronger than him.
He only looked at character when making friends.
