Chapter 76

Just a moment ago, Carlo Gambino, who had been calm and composed, now looked ashen-faced. Could there be anyone other than an SS-level ability user who could control an S-level psychic ability user? Having experienced life and death so many times, he could naturally face it with equanimity.

Swirling the wine glass in his hand, he said to himself with a self-deprecating smile, "I didn't expect to encounter an SS-level ability user in my lifetime. Could you pour me another glass of wine? As I said, once I'm dead, I won't be able to taste the delicious 1982 Porto anymore."

Li She picked up the wine bottle and walked over to pour a glass for the other person. Surrounded by thirty S-level and sixty A-level ability users from 'Zone D-10,' he wasn't afraid. Why would he fear this one S-level psychic ability user?

Seeing the other person's confident demeanor, Carlo Gambino was even more convinced that the other person was an SS-level ability user. Only an SS-level ability user would not fear him, an S-level psychic ability user.

Carlo Gambino sipped the red wine in his glass, savoring it carefully, as if trying to remember its wonderful taste, like the best last meal. He said to himself, "The 1982 Porto wine is sweet and rich, thanks to the sunshine of that year. It's truly a rare treat, one bottle less with each drink."

Li She nodded and said, "Yes, who would have thought that these sour grapes, when brewed with the most primitive methods, would taste so delicious?"

Carlo Gambino smiled, a calm smile, and looked at the photo in his hand, saying peacefully, "An, I can see you now!" After finishing his glass of wine, he looked up at Li She and said, "Go ahead, thank you for letting me taste Porto one last time before I die."

Li She shrugged and shook his head, saying, "I originally thought of killing you to end everything, but after seeing you, I changed my mind."

Carlo Gambino was taken aback and asked in confusion, "Not kill me? How will you report back?"

"Ha ha ha! Do you think anyone in this world can hire me?" Li She laughed loudly.

"You're not from 'Zone D-10'?" Carlo Gambino asked doubtfully.

"Zone D-10? Ha ha, if my calculations are correct, all their high-level fighters have been beaten by me and will be bedridden for at least half a year. They probably can't even get out of bed now," Li She said, drinking his wine.

Carlo Gambino was stunned by Li She's words. To have beaten all the high-level fighters of 'Zone D-10' to serious injuries? If it wasn't a joke, then this person was definitely a madman, and a madman with unimaginable strength.

How many high-level fighters did 'Zone D-10' have? When he first gained his psychic abilities, he felt his ambitions were boundless. After all, Hitler had created the Third Reich with psychic abilities. But as his psychic abilities slowly advanced to the A-level, he realized the world was far more complex than he imagined. After World War II, SS-level ability users became legends, and martial artists who had broken through to the 'hua jin' stage no longer existed. The world's power structure was redivided. The United States, which had profited from the war early on, developed nuclear weapons and, after the Cold War, ultimately brought down the Soviet Union, becoming the world's top superpower. 'Zone D-10' rapidly developed over several decades, supported by various financial and material resources, and now had thirty S-level ability users, sixty A-level ability users, and over three hundred B-level and C-level ability users.

Such strength, just the numbers alone were terrifying. That's why he had fled to Switzerland. If 'Zone D-10' discovered he had S-level psychic abilities, they wouldn't let him live.

After a while, Carlo Gambino regained his composure. Since the other person wasn't from 'Zone D-10,' they weren't here to eliminate him for being an S-level psychic ability user.

"Then, what does Sir want? With your abilities, obtaining anything should be easy, right? Whatever I have, just name it!" Carlo Gambino said bluntly. With such strength, he couldn't even think of resisting. If he could buy his way out, what was all his wealth worth?

"Ha ha, money? To me, it's just a number. With a long life, money means nothing to me! Actually, it was your subordinates who caused trouble for Old Cat, and since Old Cat is mine, I came here to eliminate you," Li She said, staring at the other person, then smiled and continued, "But now I've changed my mind. After all, psychic ability users are very rare! I want you to serve me, and I will grant you eternal life."

Carlo Gambino was stunned, not expecting that Old Cat was this person's subordinate.

With that, Li She's figure blurred, and he appeared in front of Carlo Gambino, opening his mouth to reveal two long fangs, which he sank into the other person's neck.

Carlo Gambino's eyes widened, and he struggled desperately, the veins on his neck bulging, his pupils contracting, and his mouth unable to make a sound. A black, sinister aura instantly spread from his neck throughout his body.

After a while, Li She released him, and Carlo Gambino, now on the ground, convulsed as the vast amount of sinister energy consumed his life force, gradually extinguishing his vitality. His heartbeat slowly stopped.

Li She, with blood on the corners of his mouth, looked particularly eerie. He licked his lips and muttered, "The blood of mortals indeed has no spiritual energy. Sigh, it seems only the blood of divine beasts can help me advance."

After doing all this, Li She wiped the blood from his mouth, poured a glass of red wine, and drank it, waiting for Carlo Gambino to transform into a zombie.

Li She turned Carlo Gambino into an immortal zombie, a half-finished product created by a 'Drought Demon' to alleviate the impact of the world's will. It wasn't easy to make an S-level psychic ability user loyal, especially one skilled in manipulating and controlling others. The best way was to turn him into a descendant, a 'zombie'! The descendants of a 'Drought Demon' have absolute control and no fear of betrayal.

Zombies have a deep, soul-level fear of the 'Drought Demon.' Thus, Carlo Gambino became the first zombie in this era where martial arts had vanished.

Li She waited patiently, with a faint sense of anticipation. Turning a normal person into a zombie was different from turning an ability user into a zombie. Li She was curious about what changes Carlo Gambino would undergo after the transformation.

Moonlight filtered through the curtains into the room, and after half an hour, the convulsing Carlo Gambino slowly regained consciousness. A wild roar erupted from his mouth, and two long fangs hung from his lips. He clutched his head, seemingly in great pain.

Li She infused a large amount of sinister energy into his body and transmitted some information to him.

"Zombie, an immortal body, feeding on resentment and blood, never aging, immensely strong, and impervious to any weapons." The information flowed into Carlo Gambino's mind.

His brown eyes slowly turned red. Li She smiled, "A red-eyed zombie, ha ha! Not bad, not bad, I wonder what surprises you will bring me?"

When Carlo Gambino regained consciousness, a wave of deathly aura emanated from his body. He slowly regained his senses and felt a deep, soul-level fear of Li She. He looked at Li She timidly, like a prey animal facing a predator.

"Ma... Master," Carlo Gambino said, trembling. Through Li She's transmission, he knew what Li She was—a 'Drought Demon,' far beyond a mere 'zombie.'

Li She nodded in satisfaction, "Not bad, I didn't expect you to recover so quickly. Do you still have your abilities?"

Carlo Gambino closed his eyes and felt the changes in his body. His psychic abilities were not only intact but seemed to be on the verge of breaking through to the SS-level.

Within a hundred meters, he could sense the brain waves of everyone, their emotions—joy, sorrow, excitement, happiness—all of which he could feel, something unimaginable before.

Carlo Gambino said excitedly, "Master, my abilities haven't disappeared; they're about to break through to the SS-level!"

Li She couldn't help but think, breaking through to the SS-level, does it mean breaking the physical limits? Ability users are physically weaker than martial artists. But as a zombie, his physical strength far exceeded that of martial artists, naturally breaking the physical limits. He didn't expect his experiment to create an SS-level psychic ability user. Hitler had used an SS-level psychic ability to create the Third Reich. He wondered what Carlo Gambino would bring him.

Although he had become a zombie, Carlo Gambino's loyalty to Li She was unquestionable. However, he still harbored deep resentment over his son Adam's death.

"Master, Adam was my only son. I hope Master can let me take revenge," Carlo Gambino said, bowing his head.

Li She thought for a moment and said, "I understand. I'll have Old Cat give you the client's information, but you'll have to wait a while before taking action!"

Hearing Li She agree to his request for revenge, Carlo Gambino said excitedly, "Thank you, Master. Carlo Gambino will always be your servant."

In the following days, Li She specifically instructed Carlo Gambino not to drink the blood of ordinary people. If he wanted to develop descendants, Li She didn't mind if they were ability users.

Little did he know, this decision would gradually change the world. After becoming a zombie, Carlo Gambino's body became incredibly strong, far surpassing martial artists and ability users. Originally, psychic ability users had weak offensive capabilities, but as a zombie, everything was different.

Years later, Carlo Gambino became the king of zombies, developing a powerful zombie clan in the real world. With his SS-level psychic abilities, he achieved what even Hitler could not.
