Incredible Doomsday Chapter 11

11- Not a Hero

Was it a bomb?

Just when Lu Qiu entered the fifth floor, he had discovered that ** army of zombies was settled.

The floor was littered with charred limbs and blood, with some small flames burning here and there, letting Lu Qiu know about the cause of all of this.

The original tide of zombies was settled in an instant.

The survived zombies wandered aimlessly in the corridor of the fifth floor.

Everything seemed to have stopped just like that.

Were the people of this hospital eaten by the zombies?

Lu Qiu immediately rejected that answer.

“Somebody has b.a.l.l.s.”

Lu Qiu proceeded with his search through the flame filled corridor.

He knew that it was caused by a person … Lu Qiu’s objective was to find and kill that person.

Lu Qiu remembered Sun Qi’s scent of blood, even if Sun Qi ran far away, Lu Qiu still could catch him.

The problem lied with the sharp-shooter, Lu Qiu still didn’t know anything about him.

Lu Qiu smelt the scent of blood in the air, it had a different flavor when compared to that of a zombie’s rotten blood.

The blood of a human …

Lu Qiu stood in front of a room, several word were written on the door, Surgical Equipment Management Room.

It’s here, ah!

Lu Qiu put his hand on the doork.n.o.b, the ** doork.n.o.b, he didn’t immediately pushed open the door, instead, he took a step back and leaned beside the door, he manipulated blood to adhere to the doork.n.o.b and gradually pushed open the door!

Sure enough, in the split second that the door was being pushed open, a crack appeared in the wall of the corridor, a yellow bullet was embedded inside.

After the gunshot, Lu Qiu was standing at the doorway, peeking at the circ.u.mstances inside.

“Just a mechanism?” Lu Qiu looked at the SVD placed on the table, a very ingenious mechanism, using a rope to tie one end to the SVD’s trigger and the other to the doork.n.o.b, as the door gets pushed open, according to the strength from opening the door, the trigger would automatically be pulled and the rifle would shoot in the direction of the door.

At first, Lu Qiu wanted to throw a high explosive grenade into the room, but seeing that there was n.o.body inside the room, he had to give up on this idea.

Just when Lu Qiu entered the room to carefully search it, above the door, in a corner of the ceiling, impressively, Ironheart Qi was there, just like a spider.

Now! Ironheart Qi jump behind Lu Qiu. As a seasoned chief officer, how could Lu Qiu compare with him in terms of combat experience?

He immediately put Lu Qiu in a chokehold, both of his hands adjusted to apply more force **.

If it was an ordinary person, then that person would have already been ** under his level-D enhanced strength, the bones would have been broken and the person would have died, but a guy that could freely walk in a crowd of zombies, certainly wasn’t an ordinary person.

Ironheart Qi didn’t dare to be complacent even one bit and used all of his strength!

Locking Lu Qiu by the neck!

So that there wouldn’t be any way to breathe.

Hah, almost strangled …

As if!

Lu Qiu’s scarlet pupils glimmered once, suddenly, Ironheart Qi felt a sharp pain in his chest, as if his heart was a pincus.h.i.+on, his actions were disrupted by a bit.

At this moment, Lu Qiu grabbed both of Ironheart Qi’s arms, immediately performed a shoulder throw on the 1.90m tall person – Ironheart Qi was heavily thrown on the ground, emitting the sound of a heavy impact.

Lu Qiu didn’t stay still, he gave a stump at Ironheart Qi’s head on the ground, yet the man extended his hands and blocked Lu Qiu’s stump.

The ground was unable to withstand the huge strength of Lu Qiu, the strength produced a lot of cracks, to the point of crumbling.

Mid-level blood-absorbing species, with a strength five times higher than that of an ordinary person. It was not a joke.

But the other also wasn’t a pushover.

Ironheart Qi roared, both of his hands dumping all of Lu Qiu’s strength.

His muscles were stretched taut, as hard as rocks.

Lu Qiu was caught off guard by Ironheart Qi’s sudden burst of strength and hit the wall in the rear.

This tall man, that just a moment ago repelled Lu Qiu, climbed up and followed up with an attack, he clenched his hand into a fist and punched strait at Lu Qiu’s head.

This guy … was not an ordinary person!

Lu Qiu extended both of his hands to block in front of him, Ironheart Qi’s fist heavily hit Lu Qiu …

In no time, Lu Qiu heard the sound of his bones shattering!

“Are you a ** Power User with the enhancement ability?

From Ironheart Qi’s ** muscles were enough to give a person a sense of his strength.

“Ugh! It doesn’t matter what king of monster you are, I’ll stop you here!” Ironheart Qi’s martial arts were by far greater than Lu Qiu’s, a Vampire versus a seasoned chief officer, without any techniques there’s nothing else to be said.

I can win! Lu Qiu was suppressed by Ironheart Qi. Ironheart Qi originally made the resolution to embrace death and fight with Lu Qiu, yet then a trace of hope was ignited.

This strange guy doesn’t look to be so terrifying! He’s just able to travel among the zombie crowd!

I can win … Ironheart Qi once again roared and followed up with an attack, forcing Lu Qiu to the corner of the wall.

After he defeats him, then he can reunite with his wife and son and leave this d.a.m.ned place!

“Die!”

Ironheart Qi had already forced Lu Qiu into a corner, he once again shot a straight fist at Lu Qiu. But Lu Qiu all long persistently resisted Ironheart Qi’s attacks, he leaned his head to the side, just like he had evaded Ironheart Qi’s bullet, evading his critical-hit fist.

The fist hit heavily on the wall, smas.h.i.+ng the entire wall.

Ironheat Qi’s pupils exuded a fierce radiance as he faced Lu Qiu’s scarlet eyes.

Monster?

Lu Qiu shot the wall broken by Ironheart Qi a glance, then looked at him while gradually disorderly breathing.

“I said … you, ah, an Power User …” Lu Qiu’s lips moved a bit, his shark-like canines looked particularly terrifying: “Whom are you protecting? Only then would you give up flight and fight me.”

Guessed correctly?

Such a spot on guess! Even so, Ironheart Qi had the ability to block this guy, who appeared to be strong but was actually weak! Even kill him!

Like this, he can leave with his wife …

“I won’t let you harm anyone else, monster!”

Ironheart Qi’s aura begun to turn chaotic, he became restless because of the strange aura emitted by Lu Qiu.

“This is really great, ah, will they treat you as a hero?”

“Shut up.”

Ironheart Qi once again launched an offensive against Lu Qiu, it was necessary to quickly dispose of this monster.

By killing him, he can leave, and his wife and son can then have ordinary lives.

Full of expectations, Ironheart Qi’s actions became rash, yet the next moment, he discovered that Lu Qiu’s hands suddenly were drenched in blood.

Who’s blood?

Ironheart Qi’ pupils dilated, he couldn’t believe it.

“Hey, did you know?” On Lu Qiu’s face appeared a ridiculing smile, he showed Ironheart Qi his hands drenched with blood : “The so-called heroes, ah, the only value of their deaths is mourning.”

“Wh … what?” Ironheart Qi lowered his head with alarm, he discovered that on his chest, where once his heart beat fervently, appeared to have a huge b.l.o.o.d.y cavity.

What Lu Qiu was holding in his hands, was precisely Ironheart Qi’s beating heart!

A ** Level-D Enhancer’s strength was about six times that of an ordinary person, his ** body was as hard as steel, but Lu Qiu as a Vampire, his sharp fingernails were not meant to look good and being decorated, still, with regards to Lu Qiu, it was no different than paper.

The chief officer underestimated the enemy, or could it be said that in order to protect somebody, in order to catch up with that somebody, he became impatient.

Under Lu Qiu’s pitying glance, Ironheart Qi’s tall body, lacking strength, collapsed to the floor, large amounts of blood gus.h.i.+ng out from his chest.

“Such a sad hero.” The b.l.o.o.d.y heart burst in Lu Qiu’s hands, with blood tainting his body.

Humans have always been like this, what faith, what perseverance, what morality, in the face of death, it all could only be turned into some screams and nothing more.

The most important thing was to keep on living, yet still wis.h.i.+ng to take care of others?

“This is doomsday, one more person was eliminated.”

Lu Qiu patted the bloodstains from his body, then proceeded to retrieve the escaped small game.1

The dead will always be forgotten, Lu Qiu didn’t receive the notification of the increase in Despair Points, he probably wasn’t desperate enough when he was at the brink of death.

But just as Lu Qiu was turning around and about to leave the Surgical Equipment Management Room, yet he discovered that the other hadn’t died!

“What?” Lu Qiu lowered his head and looked at the body that had originally lost it’s heart and fallen to the ground!

“Won’t … I won’t let you take another step …” Ironheart Qi used up the rest of his life, mustered a final trace of strength and grabbed Lu Qiu’s leg, his other hand retrieved a grenade with the safety pin already removed!

Hold on, what kind of joke is this? A human deprived of his heart, the body functions should’ve stopped!

Yet this guy … why can he still move?

Why? Why?!

What Lu Qiu saw was Ironheart Qi’s expression, like that of an evil spirit, with bloodshot eyes, facing a monster.

“I definitely won’t let you leave here, ah! Let’s die together! Monster!

He roared … the grenade in his hand suddenly detonated!

Sorry, Ru’er …

In the moment that the flame swallowed him, he wanted to see a panicked expression appear on Lu Qiu’s face, but …

You … how can you still be laughing?!

On the verge of being blown up to pieces by a grenade, yet Lu Qiu was laughing.

An exceptionally happy laughter …

Boom.

The fire engulfed the entire corridor, everything in the Surgery Equipment Management Room was destroyed by the violent explosion, the room turned into ruins and the fire spread.

The gla.s.s and tiles were shattered and had scorched traces on them. 

After the explosion concluded.

“Such a pitiable appearance.”

Due to a large amount of blood forming a membrane that surrounded Lu Qiu, it protected him and blocked all the damage from the explosion just a moment ago.

‘Blood Screen’

It summons blood to form a screen that was enough to resist an attack to some degree.

A single use could be exchanged for a price of 5,000 Despair Points.

“Your grenade just now felled 5,000 people.”

The blood surrounding Lu Qiu instantly turned into its normal state and fell onto the floor.

Ironheart Qi’s body had already become badly mutilated and mangled, the flames had burned it, maybe several pieces of meat fell into the flames and were gradually burned into dregs.

“The price was somewhat high, ah.”

Lu Qiu patted the blood from his body, his clothing shouldn’t be worn anymore, it was dirty and damaged, although Lu Qiu was a Vampire, yet he also liked to keep his body clean.

“Haaa?” Lu Qiu suddenly heard the notification of reward sounding in his head: “How did that happen? Could it be that for every Power User and Exorcist killed, I’ll get an additional reward?”

< p="">

“Unnamed Power User.” Lu Qiu looked at the burned room: “The value of your death shouldn’t be only so little, right?”

Lu Qiu looked at the corpse being engulfed by the fire, even in his death, he was still grabbing tightly Lu Qiu’s leg.

“Grrrrr!” From outside the room, a zombie was attracted by the scent of blood, it fancied the corpse on the floor being burned by fire! It was absolutely delicious, and it would became it’s dinner.

His corpse, would be the thing to fill the zombie stomach …

But …

A gunshot sounded, the zombie that walked into the room had its head burst open, the body fell next to the door.

Lu Qiu held the SVD, with his finger still on the trigger, the muzzle emitting smoke.

Lu Qiu threw the rifle beside the corpse, looked at him being burned by the fire, rather than being eaten by a zombie …

Without saying anything more, he walked out of the room that was being swallowed by fire, locked up the door, swept the surroundings with his eyes, ** his already scorched clothes.

“Next, I should settle the small game that escaped from me, ah”

Lu Qiu spent 3 Despair Points, to exchange for a pitch-black jacket with a hoody, after wearing it, he put on the hoody, then went upstairs.

Under the shadow of the hoody, Lu Qiu’s eyes emitted a faintly discernible excited radiance.
