Forbidden Zone of the Human Race

Chapter 353: Seven Deadly Sins - Envy

Fang Hao didnt know what to say as he looked at the nonchalant Xiang Ning. This time, however, he had complete trust in Xiang Ning and chose to just believe what he was saying.

Suddenly, Xiang Nings watch rang. Fang Hao saw how the confident and proud Xiang Ning, the one who had fought valiantly on the battlefield, turned into a boot licker?

Yes, Xiang Ning was like a corporate bootlicker. Fang Hao finally saw who was calling him when the hologram shot out. He laughed at the boys misfortune.

Xiang Ning tried to wave Fang Hao away like a fly, then tried his best to squeeze out an innocent smile. Xiaoyu, please listen to me. I was too bored so I came out for a stroll.

Xiang Xiaoyu said nothing as she puffed her cheeks. She passed her communicator to Qi Jiuming, who was by her side. Xiang Nings expression froze. Heh heheheheh. Long time no see, headmaster.

Hmph. Its been a long time since I last saw you this active. The second defensive perimeter has been established so the academy lifted the lockdown. The students from the special class and the teachers are to report to the second defensive perimeter. Shouldnt you come, too? Qi Jiuming narrowed his eyes.

Xiang Ning felt a shiver down his back. Only an idiot would go back. No, he must not go there! Headmaster, you should know that I have another side. My precious home is just nearby, and I cant let my masters efforts go to waste!

You wont have anything to do with the battle on that scale!

Thank you for your concern, but theres other warriors like me wholl stake their lives to protect the place here. I want to stay by their side and bleed for the Federation. I have the power, so I also have the responsibility to stand on the front line to protect the citizens. Xiang Ning somehow managed to come up with such random bullshit.

Qi Jiumings face was twitching with anger. He wanted to wallop him really badly.

Xiang Ning quickly tried defending himself. Wait, dont get so rash. Just calm down, nothing will happen. Lets talk calmly after everythings over, alright?

Xiang Ning knew that Qi Jiuming was unable to leave the second defensive perimeter, as he had been appointed its commander. Still, he slightly regretted provoking the headmaster like that. But maybe he would forget all about it after everything was over.

Sure, why not? Hohoho. Little Xiaoyu, go and talk to your brother. I have some things to do. Qi Jiuming menacingly smiled as his eyes stared daggers at Xiang Ning. Youre dead. That was what Xiang Ning felt.

Fang Hao was impressed by how fast Xiang Ning could change his facial expressions. Looking at how submissive he was to his sister, he really wanted to kick him just for fun.

......

Back in Marsh City, beasts continued pouring out of the abandoned mine. There was an abandoned building nearby that was now being used as a temporary base for the Seven Deadly Sins. Obsession, one of the Seven Sorrows, was shivering in fear and respect of the man in front of him. Lord Envy, based on the information that we obtained about Xiang Ning, itd be much more worth it to capture him alive!

Envy, one of the leaders of the Seven Deadly Sins. His strength was within the bottom three, having a cultivation of tier seven. He didnt look strong, but he was exuding a very dangerous aura. He was lanky, and wore the mask of a jester. Standing at 1.9 meters tall, he was holding a cane, reminiscent of a noble from the west. Only the mask didnt fit his aesthetic.

Yes, youre right. We need to have him, dead or alive! Envys shrill laughter filled the building.

Obsession understood that that was Lord Envys character. Every single one of the leaders had a quirk that was related to their title. For example, Lord Envy was always envious of what everyone else had. If he saw someone that had something he didnt possess, he would either take it or destroy it. That quirk made him one of the craziest individuals in the Seven Deadly Sins. He even tried killing the other leaders because they had something better than him; it was to the point that he had almost died a few times in his fights against them.

What was the thing that Xiang Ning had that caught his eye?

Im curious. What does Lord Envy seek to have that Xiang Ning possesses?

Keke. Dont you think his talent and strength are too strong for someone this young? I envy his talent. Im so jealous! I remember I was just around tier three at his age. He held his mask as he said that.

Obsession was treading carefully. Yes. Such talent. Who wouldnt envy him? Still, he had to talk about the bad news. Lord Envy, ten of the mutants perished. Thats a big blow to our plans. What should we do? In just another hour, reinforcements from the iron fortress will arrive.

Give these to the remaining mutants. As for the beasts. Lord Envy was grinning maliciously at the beasts that continued to pour out from the mine.

......

Ten minutes later, an alarm sounded across Marsh City.

How are the Seven Deadly Sins controlling all these beasts? Theyre gathering them to attack us here! Fang Hao was in a pinchthere were at least ten thousand beasts coming their way.

There were only three thousand defenders guarding the area there. Still, they could use artillery to reduce the number of beasts before they arrived here.

This will be a long battle.

Be mindful of the Seven Deadly Sins!

Just as someone said that, ten mutants popped out in front of the stampede. They looked so different than the mutants that Xiang Ning had fought half an hour before.

If the mutants that Xiang Ning fought before still retained part of their humanity, then the mutants right now had completely lost their minds. All that was in their minds was killing everything in their path. Some of the beasts managed to open up a path for them, while the slower ones were torn apart.

They mustve consumed something! Xiang Ning realized something was wrong. Thats why theyre so powerful now! Their strength is almost approaching tier six! This is going to be hard. He looked at the mutants and felt his scalp prickling. An uncomfortable feeling spread throughout his body. He turned and located the source of the murderous intent.

One, no, two people on a truck! They were Obsession and Envy!

Fang Zhenyuan suddenly appeared beside Xiang Ning.

Father! Fang Hao was surprised.

Fang Zhenyuan nodded. Careful now.
