Proofreader: Prof Zhu Yuan
Yun Che jumped directly from the second floor. The long sword in his hand buzzed, and the crowd around Yun Cheng was frightened and got out of the way. They sensed intuitively this "Yun Cheng" seemed horrible. When Yun Che looked at his brother’s gray and bloodshot eyes, he was shocked to tremble and even couldn't keep moving.
"Old brother..."
It seemed that Cheng felt his arrival; his gray eyes shed turbid tears and he cried strangely from time to time.
"Cheng ..." Are you going to become a zombie again?
Yun Che breathed in a gasp and desperately ordered his trembling body to calm down. However, in his mind the image of Yun Cheng changing into a zombie previously and the image of Yun Cheng now changing into a zombie alternately emerged. The blood flowed down along the corners of the mouth; Yun Che held his long sword tighter and the veins on the back of the hand faintly beat.
"Ho ho ...... elder brother ...... elder brother ..."
It could be realized that Yun Cheng was still struggling. He was unwilling to be a monster, for he had not yet seen his closest relatives.
"Cheng!" Yun Che dashed to Cheng and lowered himself close enough to him, but Yun Cheng lowered his head. He could not see anything but still could hear. He knew that his brother was coming. Subconsciously, he didn't want his brother to see him under such a circumstance. However, Yun Che held his face and forced him to raise the head: "Sorry, I'm too late. Don't be afraid; I’m here; don't be afraid ..."
Against that pale face and dusty eyes, Yun Che grinded his teeth and held his brother tightly. He won't let his brother become a zombie, absolutely not!
"Brother ..."
The purple lip trembled with excitement, and the wandering eyes flickered. Yun Cheng didn't want to admit defeat, but his body was like a battle between heaven and man, tormenting his remaining sanity and being able to utter a word was his limit.
"Don't say anything; believe me!" Yun Che lifted Cheng softly but glanced at the crowd fiercely. The whole stadium suddenly seemed to be filled with ice and many people were scared to retreat, only Leng Yehan and Lu Haixuan were close to him. Yun Che mercilessly stepped on the floor; with the help of this momentum he holding Yun Cheng jumped on the second floor. Leng Yehan and Lu Haixuan both kept up with him. When others realized what happened, the only thing left was just a deep hole on the ground.
"Cheng ..." Seeing Yun Che put Yun Cheng on the ground, Yun Yao cried and rushed up to hug him. He was her most excellent brother ... Why? Why?

"Elder sister ..." Hearing her voice, Yun Cheng got excited but all he could say was just s strange cry. Yun Yao hurriedly hugged him tightly: "I’m here. Cheng, listen to me: don't talk any more, please, don't talk ..."
Every strange cry was torture to them. Yun Yao who was stronger with great difficulty, cried again.
"Yun Che. Cheng, he ..." Leng Yehan looked at Yun Cheng anxiously. He had not seen Yun Che before, but Yun Cheng talked about his twin brother often.
Yun Che glanced at him for a while and then took down his backpack and took out a bottle of water. He held the chin of Yun Cheng and forced water into his mouth. He lived four years in the previous life, but he never heard any methods that could cure the zombie virus. Now he could only wish this powerful spring water could wash away the zombie virus in his body.
"Ho ho ..."
As soon as the spring water entered the throat, Yun Cheng pushed Yun Yao and Yun Che away with a roar. His pale face seemed to be frozen and his dusty eyes were flashing from time to time. The sharp nails were sharper because of changes, so did the neat teeth. Especially, the two tiger teeth grew longer slowly like vampires.
Spring water seemed not to remove the zombie virus in his body, but accelerated his evolution. Yun Che was desperate: was his brother doomed to be a zombie?
"Cheng ..."
Yun Yao and Leng Yehan both rushed towards him. Fortunately, Zhou Zeyu and Lu Haixuan grabbed them first. Under such a circumstance, all of them were heartbroken, but ...was sadness useful?
"Let me go, Cheng! Cheng ..."
Seeing that the younger brother was mutating faster and faster, Yun Yao who was held by Zhou Zeyu, struggled and even madly beat his chest with her hands. Zhou Zeyu still held her as if he didn't feel anything. He was afraid that she would get rid of him. He tightly hugged her with both arms: "Come on, sister, come on, we all don't want to ..."
Except for those words, Zhou Zeyu didn’t know what else to say to comfort her.
"Yehan..."
Although he ppl was not as excited as Yun Yao, Leng Yehan kept staring at Yun Cheng. He was stiffened as a stone and even did not realize that he broke his teeth. Seeing this, Lu Haixuan was more upset. He only knew them for just more than a day, but experienced too much with them. Yun Cheng was doomed to be a monster and Leng Yehan... His heart was like to be cut by the knife.

"Ho ho ...... elder brother ...... elder sister ......I’m aching ..."
Cheng in the process of mutation painfully grabbed his own collar. The sharp nails cut his skin, and every part of his twisted body showed his pain. His gray eyes gradually turned red and his gray skin gradually turned pale without any color. His purple lip also became ruddy slowly; it was not like the healthy red lips of ordinary people but the ones with red blood. The two sharp fangs had clearly appeared…
Pale skin, bloody lips, sharp fangs ...
Level-10 zombies?! Seeing what happened to Cheng, Yun Che suddenly thought of these four words. When he died in the previous life, the highest level of zombies he saw was just level-7, level-7 zombies’ eyes were blue and their intelligence was like ten-year-old children and they were able to use superfunction skillfully. According to the scientists’ estimation, zombies could reach at least level-10. At that time, both their IQ and appearance was about the same as human beings’. Although there was no theoretical basis, people...
It was an irreversible fact that Cheng became a zombie, but who said that becoming a zombie must be a dead end?
Thinking of this, Yun Che abnormally smiled. He ignored others’ doubt and lowered himself down again, putting his hand on Yun Cheng’s shoulders.
"Ho ho ..." At this time Yun Che had completely lost his mind. His red eyes were fierce and his sharp fangs dripped saliva. Yun Che nearing him seemed to be a piece of fresh meat.
"Che... Cheng..." Yun Yao cried more sadly, but Yun Che ignored her. He grabbed Yun Cheng’s waving hands and pressed them on the top of his head with one hand and put the other hand into his pocket. He took out a few zombie crystal nucleuses and threw them into Yun Cheng’s mouth without a second thought.
"Click, click."
Gradually, those red eyes filled with blood and fierce desire calmed down and became full of confusion; it seemed that his body also leaned towards the direction where Yun Che stood. His blood red lip moved, like he was willing to say something or to ask for something.
Waiting until Cheng did not struggle any longer, Yun Che took out a handful of crystal nucleuses and put the crystal nucleuses in his hand. Then, he took his left hand and picked up one crystal nucleus into his mouth. Yun Cheng was still stiff, but learned to mimic what Yun Che taught him. He picked up a soybean-size crystal nucleus, sent it to his mouth, and chewed like eating sugar peas.
Seeing this, Yun Che felt a little better. His hand unconsciously stretched over and rubbed his hair. He could not give up now. Even if the younger brother's life must start again and he even might go to an unknown and dangerous future, he would accompany him and protect him. This was his responsibility as a brother and would also become one of his driving force after the doomsday.
"Che?"
"Yun Che?"
Yun Yao and others couldn't believe what they saw. What did Yun Che do? Why did the manic Yun Cheng quietly calm down and eat "sugar beans" obediently? Although it was a bit inappropriate, they did think that the present Yun Cheng was a little adorable…
"Zombies can evolve. Zombies at different levels will be very different in appearance and combat power. The key to promotion is energy and it could be flesh and blood, or the crystal nucleus growing in the zombie head."
Standing up, Yun Che took out another crystal nucleus and met their puzzled eyes. "If the level is high enough, a zombie will acquire wisdom and its appearance will gradually be more and more like human beings. Look at Xiao Fang; now except for the fact that his face is paler, his lip is redder and his fangs is sharper, what else can show that he looks like a zombie?"
Er ... you knew too much of this, didn’t you?
Others were all shocked by him, but at the same time they also knew that now it was not the right time to make fun of him. Yun Yao pushed away Song Zeyu who had always held her tightly and stepped forward tremblingly: "Do you mean Cheng has become a senior zombie?"
Wasn't that still a zombie?
Glancing at the younger brother who quietly ate crystal nucleus, Yun Yao cried again: the younger brother... How did he become like this?
"No, I think he just looks like a senior zombie. In fact, his level may be still very low and he needs a lot of energy to be promoted."
If he really reached level-10, Yun Che absolutely could not control him. The level of zombie was similar to that of human being’s superfunction. Now his ray-system superfunction just reached level-2 and air-system superfunction after being used several times just reached level -1. Under such a circumstance, he could even be killed by a level-3 or level-4 zombie, let alone level-10 zombie. The crazy decision: to raise a zombie?
