Skinwalker Belle – Chapter 82 – Jiangcheng

Lin Fan stood on the edge of the rooftop.

She glanced down at the city ruins below her feet.

Then.

She tapped the tips of her toes lightly.

Her entire body, like a weightless feather, floated up.

Psychokinesis enveloped her body.

She slowly ascended.

The hem of her black dress clung to her legs in the wind.

A cool breeze billowed in.

That feeling.

Thrilling.

Exciting.

And an indescribable, furtive thrill.

A smile touched the corners of Lin Fan’s lips.

She accelerated.

Her black figure streaked across the sky like a meteor, flying toward the far side of the city.

She wanted to test just how fast her limit was.

Psychokinesis at full power.

The wind howled in her ears.

The buildings below flashed past like slides in reverse.

Her speed grew faster and faster.

One hundred kilometers per hour.

Two hundred kilometers per hour.

Three hundred kilometers per hour.

Lin Fan felt her body grow lighter and lighter in the high-speed airflow.

It felt as if she were about to melt into the wind.

She glanced down.

The edge of Hangcheng had already appeared in her field of vision.

She didn’t stop.

Instead, she continued to accelerate.

She wanted to see what the neighboring Jiangcheng looked like.

Twenty minutes later.

Lin Fan’s figure appeared in the sky above Jiangcheng.

She hovered in mid-air, looking down at the city below.

Then.

Her brow furrowed slightly.

The number of Zombies in Jiangcheng was far greater than in Hangcheng.

On the streets, dense hordes of the walking dead roamed like swarms of ants.

Moreover.

She could clearly see that among the Zombies were many Mutants with distinctly abnormal body shapes.

A three-meter-tall giant Zombie.

A speed-type Zombie with bizarre purple skin.

There were even some defensive-type Zombies covered in bone spurs.

Lin Fan’s gaze fell upon a street on the city’s east side.

There.

Ten people were surrounding a three-meter-tall Mutant Zombie.

Their coordination was impeccable.

Three people drew its aggro from the front.

Two flanked it, firing crossbows.

The remaining five looked for an opening from the rear.

Lin Fan’s pupils constricted slightly.

The three people fighting at the front.

Their movements were clearly much faster than an ordinary person’s.

Their strength was greater, too.

Evolved beings.

Three Evolved beings.

In a small team of ten, there were three Evolved beings.

This ratio.

It was far too unusual.

Lin Fan continued to observe.

Under the combined assault of the three Evolved beings, the Mutant Zombie gradually lost the upper hand.

Finally.

An Evolved being wielding a long saber seized an opportunity and severed the Zombie’s neck with one slash.

The Zombie collapsed.

Lin Fan thought they would leave immediately.

But what happened next made her eyes narrow slightly.

The Evolved being with the long saber knelt down.

He pulled a dagger from his waist.

Then.

He used the dagger to pry open the Zombie’s skull.

He reached inside.

And pulled out a thumb-sized crystal glowing with a faint red light.

A Crystal.

They knew about the existence of Crystals.

And.

Judging from their practiced movements.

This was definitely not their first time.

If the survivors in Jiangcheng already widely knew about the function of Crystals.

Then the number of Evolved beings here must far exceed that of Hangcheng.

She had to find out how they used the Crystals.

Lin Fan slowly descended.

The hem of her black dress fluttered in the air.

She landed steadily on the street.

Her high heels made a crisp sound on the ground.

The members of the small team instantly turned their heads in alarm.

The moment they saw Lin Fan.

Everyone was stunned.

A woman.

Wearing a long black dress.

In high heels.

Appearing just like that on a street full of Zombies.

Her face was so exquisite it didn’t seem human.

Her figure was so perfect it was breathtaking.

But what shocked them the most.

Was the aura she exuded.

Calm.

Composed.

As if the wandering Zombies around her simply didn’t exist.

“Who… who are you?”

The Evolved being with the long saber swallowed hard.

His voice was laced with vigilance.

In the apocalypse.

Anyone who dared to dress like this.

Was definitely no ordinary person.

Lin Fan didn’t answer.

She simply raised her hand and pointed at the red-glowing Crystal in his.

“This thing.”

Her voice was very soft.

“How do you use it?”

The team members looked at each other.

They hadn’t expected this woman to ask such a question.

“You… don’t know about Crystals?”

The Evolved being frowned.

“You’re not from Jiangcheng?”

Lin Fan shook her head.

“I came from Hangcheng.”

“Hangcheng?”

The Evolved being was taken aback for a moment.

“The people over there don’t know what Crystals do?”

Lin Fan didn’t speak.

She just watched him quietly.

The invisible pressure made a layer of cold sweat break out on the Evolved being’s back.

He hesitated for a few seconds.

Then.

He spoke.

“Crystals… are taken from the brains of Mutant Zombies.”

“If an ordinary person eats one, and they have the aptitude, they can evolve.”

“If they don’t have the aptitude, it’s useless.”

“As for Evolved beings…”

He paused.

“By consuming Crystals of the same attribute, there’s a chance to evolve again.”

“But it’s not a guarantee.”

“It still depends on aptitude.”

Lin Fan’s eyes narrowed slightly.

Ordinary people could evolve by eating Crystals.

Evolved beings could evolve a second time by eating Crystals of the same attribute.

This information.

It was basically consistent with what she had learned from Iron Fist.

But.

There was one difference.

The people of Jiangcheng already widely knew this information.

Whereas in Hangcheng, no one knew except for Iron Fist.

What did this mean?

It meant that information spread far faster in Jiangcheng than in Hangcheng.

Or perhaps.

Jiangcheng had a more unified organization.

“What’s the situation in Jiangcheng right now?”

Lin Fan continued to ask.

The Evolved being glanced at her.

He hesitated for a few seconds.

But finally, he spoke.

“Jiangcheng currently has three major strongholds.”

“Each stronghold is overseen by a thrice-evolved being.”

“Our leader is named Zhang Jie.”

“He’s one of the three thrice-evolved.”

Thrice-evolved.

A ripple went through Lin Fan’s heart.

Iron Fist was only twice-evolved and could already withstand rifle fire.

Although her current abilities were much stronger than an ordinary twice-evolved being’s.

When facing a thrice-evolved being.

She wasn’t absolutely confident.

“Where is your stronghold?” Lin Fan asked.

The Evolved being pointed toward the north of the city.

“The industrial park in the North District.”

“There are over five hundred people.”

Lin Fan nodded.

She turned.

Preparing to leave.

“Wait!”

The Evolved being suddenly called out to her.

Lin Fan turned back.

“Are you… really from Hangcheng?”

A trace of curiosity flashed in the Evolved being’s eyes.

“What’s the situation over in Hangcheng now?”

Lin Fan thought for a moment.

“Hangcheng currently has only one stronghold.”

“Fragrant Hills International.”

“The leader…”

She paused.

“Is me.”

The Evolved being was stunned.

He looked at the woman before him, dressed in a long dress and high heels.

Countless thoughts flashed through his mind.

The leader of Hangcheng.

Daring to come to Jiangcheng all by herself.

This woman.

Just how strong was she?
